The moment I haven't been waiting for. The plane ride to the All Star game. I followed Jonathan through the secret part of the airport. I got a text from Auston.

'Our plane is leaving now. I can't wait to see you.'

'We're just about to get on the plane. I'll see you soon.'

'I hope it all goes good with Patrick <3'

Auston knew this was my biggest worry after a few late night FaceTime calls when I would panic and complain about it. He would always calm me down.

"It's going to be fine." Jonathan looked back at me as we walked onto the plane. Patrick was already here. He was sitting on a recliner on his phone.

"Hey Tazer what's up?" He bro hugged Jonathan but didn't even look my way.

"Great." I mumbled and walked to the back of the plane and claimed my own couch. Jonathan stayed up by Patrick and they started talking hockey.

The flight was to Florida so it wasn't too long. They took us on a bus to the hotel. Apparently the whole hotel was rented out for NHL players and their guests. Jonathan and I were sharing a room because there was only enough rooms for each player. The first thing I did when I got to our room was lay down on the bed. Jonathan laughed as he put his bag on the other bed.

'Are you here yet?' I texted Auston.

'Room 377'

I looked at our number. 368. His room was a few doors down.

"I'll be right back." I said to Jonathan as I smiled at my phone.

"Don't get in any trouble." He smirked knowing that I was going to see Auston.

I opened the door and saw him and Mitch struggling to open their door.

"Hey Matts." I called. He looked up and had an instant smile on his face. I ran into his arms and he picked me up and spun me around.

"My turn." Mitch said when Auston put me down. Mitch hugged me softly. Mitch let go and I looked down the hallway to see Patrick going into his room trying his best to ignore us.

"Things aren't any better?" Mitch asked.

"No, just awkward." I said.

We decided to go out to dinner, Auston, Mitch, and I. We went to a small semi fancy restaurant.
