The Life of a Hockey Sister

Chapter 2

CHAPTER 2

We walk into the Ice Arena, it's pretty nice. Better then ours back home. There's two different rinks like ours and it's painted in the colots red, dark blue, and white. Drew and I are checking their schedule when Grant walks in.

"There's my Little Sister the heart breaker!" he says grinning.

"What are you talking about?" I ask confused.

"Don't play dumb." he says walking away.

"Wish I was," I mutter. I turn to Drew, "Well there's no shinny so what are we going to do?"

"Pass the puck?" he asks.

"Beat you to the van!" We run out of the Arena into the parking lot. I hit a slick spot and slide falling into Toews. He catches me holding me in his arms. "Sorry!" I say standing up.

"No problem it's slick out here." he says winking at me before going towards the Ice Arena.

"Still need help with stats?" I call after him.

"You betcha!" he says smiling.

"It's your lucky day, I'll help." I tell him.

"You're right it is my lucky day." Toews says going into the Arena. I go to the van and Drew hands me my stick.

"You're so clueless!" he tells me.

"What are you talking about?" I ask passing him the puck.

"Toews obviously likes you!" I roll my eyes,

"Whatever,"

"I'm serious he's flirting with you nonstop!" Drew says.

"So does Alex but he doesn't like me." I reason.

"Yeah but Alex is a flirt and everyone knows that, Toews is a different story." I know he's right.

"He's not flirting." I tell him.

"Oh really? Let's see he meet you as soon as we got to the high school, he sent you a welcome to Canada, he called you Angela, he's nonstop smiles, he winked at you, he asked you for help with stats, and he caught you. Angie he's hopelessly crushing on you!"

"It's called being nice." I say.

"You wish!" We pass the puck for a full hour. My fingers are starting to go numb. It's definetly colder here.

"We got 15 minutes until game time. I need to go get set up for stats." I tell Drew tossing my stick in the van.

"You're leading him on." Drew says.

"Drew he doesn't like me therefore making it impossible to lead him on."

"Yeah okay go have fun with your boyfriend." he teases.

"He's not my boyfriend!" I say walking into the Ice Arena. I find Toews sitting in the lobby.

"Hey Toews what ice are we on?" I ask.

"Rink 2," he says handing me a stat sheet.

"Thanks!" I say walking towards rink 2. I walk up to the stat box and find Alex,

"Hey Angel are you helping with stats?"

"Of course!" I say going and sitting by him. Are team manager Mike walks up,

"Well if it isn't Toews's girlfriend!" he says sitting down.

"Excuse me?"

"Come on Angie, Toews flirts with you more then I do." says Alex.
