I sat across from Brandon and Tanner nibbling on some French fries that came with my burger. I started dipping my fries in my chocolate shake which got me some weird looks from the guys.

"What? Have you guys never tried this?" I asked them giggling slightly.

"Nope. I think you're just crazy," tanner said.

I just giggled shaking my head. I excused myself to go to the bathroom.

As I walked back to the table Brandon and Tanner were whispering but, stopped as soon as I got close. That was weird I thought to myself but, didn't think much of it.

I headed to my apartment to change into a different uniform and take a quick nap.

I woke up and changed into my black penguins polo and some khakis along with my black flats that had a bow on the toe. I then brushed my hair and put it back in the ponytail before clipping a gold bow in my hair. I grabbed my purse and headed out to my car.

I got to the Consol Energy Center and walked into the medic room.

"Hey can you roll out my legs?" tanner asked.

"Yup hop on a bed," I told him before setting my purse down in my chair noticing another note stuck on my keyboard.

I just grabbed it and slipped it into my desk drawer.

"What's that?" tanner asked.

"Oh just a note. probably from Coach Bysmal," I told him shrugging my shoulders.

I rolled out Tanner and helped stretch a couple other players before they went out to warmups.

I then decided to read the note.

Dear Becca,

Ugh this is so hard. I want to tell you who I am so bad but, I cant. I know I can't. I don't know if you feel the same way and I honestly am scared of rejection my past hasn't been the easiest but, that's not important. Im playing tonight so wish me good luck. I know you don't know who I am but, just wish me good luck. I will tell you eventually I promise.

Sincerely,
Your secret admirer

I smiled slightly at the note before putting it in my wallet beside the other one. I quickly grabbed a pen and numbered and dated the notes. If only I knew who was sending me these. Tanner seemed to be friends with all the guys maybe I should ask him.

The guys came back from warm ups and I helped a couple guys stretch and such. Tonight was the home opener so the crowd was full on black and gold. The atmosphere was amazing.

I stood in the hall and fist bumped a couple players as they walked by wishing them all good luck.

I watched the first period from the tunnel with the equipment managers.

"They're doing great," I told Dana as Sid scored another goal putting us up 2-0.

The horn buzzed and I went back to the medical room. A couple minutes later players started to pour in.

"Do this for five minute," Geno said pointing at the stem machine for his knee.

I hooked Geno up to the stem for five minutes and then helped stretch Beau and Brandon.

I wished the guys good luck and told them to kick ass as they made their way to the ice for the second period.

The pens were up 3-1 by the end of the second against Anaheim.

I hooked Geno up to the stem once again for five minutes before rolling out Sids legs and Brandon's legs.

After rolling out the guys legs I saw Tanner walking by and quickly left the room so I could talk to him.
