Fractured Heartstrings

Ch 9

*William's POV*

I smiled as I stroked my hand on Alyssa's cheek, she was so beautiful while she slept.

Today I was planning for us to go down to the ACC and just skate around or practice some shots or whatever. Then hopefully we could maybe head down to her Bakery Shop, and to finally finish off with some cuddling in this new apartment - or even finish packing.

Alyssa stirred before opening both of her eyes, she smiled as I got up and sat on the bed starring down at her. "Morning babe" she smiled.

"Morning, you better get ready you know" I reminded her as I rolled out of bed and stretched as the bright sun shone brightly over Toronto.

She smiled as she herself got up and got ready. She ran in the washroom and took a shower quickly. I played some songs through my blasting speakers, hopefully I wouldn't be getting any complaints or that.

*Alyssa POV*

I smiled as I slipped out of the shower and heard the loud music of William playing, oh and it just happened to be my favourite song. I quickly applied my makeup and tossed my hair into small curls. I exited the washroom, silently placing my dirty cloths into the hamper.

I crawled up next to William, swinging him from behind so I could dance with him.
He smiled when he saw me, so I grabbed his hands and placed them on my hips as I stretched my arms out to his neck.

We danced in silent as the music continued playing loudly, I tilted my head onto his chest as I hummed along to the lyrics.
Swiftly moving my feet as we slow danced to the music blasting through the speakers, moments like these were priceless. Priceless, valuable, treasuring moments, moments you share throughout your lifetime.

"This is more then I ever imagined love being like" I whispered dancing in his arms, he smiled faintly and kissed my forehead softly yet sweetly.

"And I really never knew how to love, I just hoped for someone I'd see. But now they sent an angle down to me" he smiled starring down into my eyes. This was true, true love. Where you felt like you've known the person forever, but you haven't.
I never knew I could be loved this tenderly...

"Now where do you plan to take me?" I asked as William drove cautiously down the streets of the Toronto roads, the sun shined so beautifully today. Showing the true beauty of the North, the strong and free. He smiled placing his free hand down on my thigh, looking at me so quickly before back to the road "it wouldn't be a surprise"

I shook my head and rolled my eyes, starring out at CN tower in the distance not too far from where we were. "We should go sometime" I spoke breaking the silence currently held.
"The CN tower?" He asked, I signed happily as I thought of the future once more "It would be nice ya know"

"Yeah, I'll take you one time. Just not today babe, sorry. I'm brining you somewhere better" he smirked. We finally pulled up into an unfamiliar parking lot of a large building, but a familiar building I might say. I was about to speak and ask, but I shut my mouth and followed William inside the building.

William smirked more but didn't speak a word, he walked faster pace each minute until we finally arrived to where he was dying to bring me to.

I gasped taking in my sights "William..."

He smiled as he wrapped his arm around my back, brining my closer to him as we both starred out at the clear ice. That's right, the Air Canada Centre.

"Look, I know you've never been to a NHL rink before. So I thought it could just be you and me, skating around today" he beamed with happiness.

"But ... My skates?" I asked raising an eyebrow, it's been years since I've been out on the ice. Years.
