"Broken"

Two

Shawn's POV:

Today is the day. One of the biggest Hockey games of the season. If we win this, we are going to the championships. I got out of my car and started heading towards the locker rooms to change. As I was walking, I saw Alexa going in the same direction.

Shawn: "Yo Ally!"

She turned and looked at me.

Alexa: "Hi Shawn!"

I caught up to her, and she hugged me before we continued walking to the locker rooms.

Shawn: "you nervous?"

Alexa: "nah, but I think Coach Stevens is" she said with a slight chuckle.

I looked over at Coach to see him obsessively looking over the game plan, and vigorously scribbling words all over it.

Alexa: "I swear, sometimes I think he forgets that we are only juniors in high school."

I laughed, realizing how accurate what she just said really is. Alexa always knows how to release tension, make everyone laugh, and really put all the people around her in a good mood. With someone like that, it's really a shame that she is dating that prick Damien. She could do so much better.

Alexa's POV:

That game started and ended in what felt like one big blur.
We were behind, and Coach Stevens started yelling game plans and pointers at us.

I got the puck and began making my way down the ice towards the other team's goal. I maneuvered my way around everyone, and dodged all the hockey sticks trying to take the puck from me.

With three seconds left, I made it to the end of the ice, and shot the puck in through the goalie's legs.

Before I was able to mentally process what I had just done, I saw Coach Stevens throw his clipboard and jump with joy.

All the guys were cheering and high-fiving me. I got off the ice, and as I was unlacing my skates, I looked over to see Shawn running towards me with his arms opened wide.
