NHL one-shots (On Hold)

Jealous-Matt Duchene

Everyone told her about the look. About the cheesy smiles, but she ignored them. He didn't love her. There was no way he possible could. He was a hockey player. She was just a girl who knew Mackinnon in high school and they still talked.

Duchene was someone she had had a crush on since the day their eyes collided at a team metting but she knew the possibility of them together was slim to none.

She had a plan though. Mackinnon was one the her better friends from the team so she had an idea l. She was great gonna make Duchene jealous.

Nate knew about her little crush on Matt so as soon as Katy told him her idea he was right on board. He visibly asked her on a date in front of Duchene.

Wanting to get on with the show Katy happily obliged with a quick glance at Matt. Was her mind playong tricks or did he look sad?

The hoops and hollars of 'get some' snapped Katy out of her little trance and she smiled from ear to ear as she grabbed Mackinnon by the hand.

The date was set for later that night and Katy was ready to go by 7 in a tight fighting black dress matched with heels. Mackinnon was at her door leaning on the frame with a cocky smile plastered on his face. Khakis and a nice shirt and tie complimented his body that night.

"Ready to go?" Mackinnon asked as he straightened himself out. Katy replied with a simple nod and step into the brisk Colorodo night.

"To be honest you look really pretty tonight." Mackinnon leaned down toward her ear when he talked. Katy had always been on the shorter side in her family.

The arrival at the restaurant was nothing fancy. Katy waited for Mackinnon to open her door and she took her hand when he offered it. She smiled in his direction and they walked toward the front door of the small place.

"What are the odds of that even happening?" Katy asked later in the evening after the food had arrived. Dhe was bewildered at Mackinnon's recollection of childhood stories.

"I really don't know." Mackinnon let out a breathy laugh, "My friend swore it was safe but the next thing I remebered after jumping off the edge was waking up in the hospital still in my swim trunks. My hockey coach was pissed." (a/n idk if this is really one of his childhood stories)

Katy giggled as she heard the front door to the restraunt open. She paid no mind to it like she normally does. Mackinnon looked up then wiped his lips before placing his napkin on the table.

"Im gonna head to the bathroom real quick." Katy nodded as Mackinnon got up and left. She stared down at hee phone when she heard rustiling on the other side of the table.
"Was there a line or paparazzi?" Katy asked without looking up.

"Not really." Katy's head shot up as she stared into the eyes of Duchene. His handsome face smiled back at her bewildered one.

"Matt, what are you doing here?" Katy quietly asked.

"I couldn't stand by and watch you go on a date when I find you the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on. You took my breath away from the moment I met you and-and-" Matt looked down at the table.

Katy looked bewildered yet flattered at the same time and she tried her hardest to supress her forming blush.

Matt stood up. "I need to go. I just- I dont know what I was even thinking."

"Matt dont go. This was all a setup. I like you too." Katy began twisting her spaghetti on her fork, "I-I just never thought the feeling could possibly be mutual. I didnt want to look like an idiot telling you my feelings and them not be returned."

"Tuesday night. 7 o'clock. Ill be at your place and dress nicely. A dress will do." Matt smiled as Katy nodded.

"Tuesday night. Cant wait." Katy watched Matt leave with a grin on her face. Mackinnon came back a minute later.

"I saw him come in so I decided to give you guys a moment. So?"

"Guess who has a date Tuesday night!" They finished that evening just as friendsa s Katy explained what Matt had told her earlier.
.....................
3 years later.
Ever since Matt had stepped up Katy and him have been together. They now live happily married with a small one on the way.

"Matt," Katy grabbed Matt's arm tightly. "Its time."

They rushed to the hospital and Katy delivered a beautiful baby boy. They named him after his own daddy. A future Avalanche indeed.

I still get Jealous!
