Chapter 21-
Caleb's POV:
We pulled out a win naturally with four fights. So it looks like we would be splitting a round of drinks tonight. Juliet came down after the game and sat next to me and slightly laid back, shutting her eyes.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"My back is killing." She said.
"I can get Joey to give you a heat pack." I said. I went over to Joey who was just cleaning up, Clarkson got cut in a fight so they had to stitch him up.
"Hey Joe, Juliet's back is hurting can you get her a heat pack?" I asked.
"Yea, no problem." He walked out to see her and told her to come to the room. I showered and changed back into my suit. I walked out as he wrapped a tensor bandage around a heat pack to support her back.
"Thanks Joe." She smiled.
"No problem. Try to get as much rest as possible. You are putting to much pressure on your back when you're up walking on concrete floor." He said.
"I will." She said. We walked outside to my truck and I helped her get in.
"I'm going out with Price, Gallagher, Rielly and a couple of other guys." I said naming some Montreal guys.
"No problem." She said with her eyes shut.
"Are you sure? If you're in a lot of pain, maybe I should stay. I don't want you up and around." I said worriedly. She laughed and then tensed.
"The doctor said I would have extreme back pain. I just need heat and my medicine. I'll be fine." She assured. I sighed heavily as I pulled into my parking space. We took the elevator upstairs and she went in and changed and laid down on her bed. I grabbed her two bottles of water, her medicine, crackers and her phone.
"Here. Drinks, food and meds. Also your phone, if you need anything, call me." I said as she laid down watching tv.
"Don't worry, Cale. I'll be fine." She smiled.
"Okay. I'll be back soon." I said leaving. Instead of a restaurant with Toews, Kane and Crawford. We went to a pub instead. Once I got there a lot of guys had already had a couple of drinks.
"Andrews!" Price slurred. I chuckled and walked over and sat down as they set a shot infront of me. I took it and grimaced at the flavour.
"Come on, kid. Don't be a wuss." He said patting my back. I smiled and sat down and a beer was slid to me.
"So, Rielly here tells me you got the new hot hockey chick as your girlfriend." Price laughed.
"No I don't...Well not yet. We're not even dating yet."I said.
"He told me how you and her are best friends, trust me. You're boyfriend and girlfriend." He said waving me off. I shook my head and sighed.
"Here take this. It will grow you real balls." He said giving me two more shots. I took them as they began to feel easier when going down.
"You want more? Subban is buying." He slurred giving me three more shots. I took them gladly as I felt the alcohol set in. I chugged my beer rather quickly and grabbed another one.
Juliet's POV:
I sighed angrily slamming my phone down.
"Oh yea, if you need anything, call me." I said mocking Caleb. It was the fifth time I called him. I was craving pizza and I wanted him to get me a slice but he hasn't been answering. I shook my head and shut my eyes and forced myself to sleep.
A loud sound woke me up hours later and my eyes shot up.
"Caleb?" I called. I got up and hobbled to my door an peered out. Caleb stumbled in the doorway as Clarabelle and Tidus watched him intently.
"Caleb..." I sighed. I walked over and helped him with his jacket.
"Ugh, you reek of alcohol." I grimaced.
"Jules...? Hey...babe..." He slurred.
"Yes. Hello honey. What happened to call me if you need anything?" I asked. He laughed as I guided him to his room.
"I was drinking with Price...It always gets out of hand with Price. He is a little shit." He said. I opened his door and helped him get undressed.
"Why are you undressing me, Jules?" He asked.
"To get you in bed." I said taking off his shirt.
"You're hot, Jules."
"Thank you, Caleb." I said taking off his belt buckle. I finally got his clothes off and he collapsed into bed and was out like a light. I walked to his door and smiled at his sleeping self.
"Goodnight, Caleb." I said happily before going into my room.
