I skated furiously down centre ice chasing after the puck, the Bears have been putting up one hell of a fight playing rough, but so far it's pretty much just been the team after me, and anybody trying to cover me

I don't know how much more of this my body's gonna take tonight.

With the score at 5-3, and 10 minutes left in the third period, the bears are beginning to get goal hungry, keeping their eyes on any chance to win, I think they should just quit while their behind

They've pretty much already lost.

Johnny took the opportunity to check Bryon into the broads, a whistle blew and the play stopped.

When I came to a stop a cloud of snow flew up into the air, I faced bryon who wasn't getting up, Johnny stood over him laughing.

I grabbed his shoulder and pulled him away roughly which got me pushed by one of the teammates.

Turning around I shoved him back harder, and a ref stood between us.

"Hey back off!" Jake yelled to the other player, i crouched down and helped pick Byron up off the ice "are you alright?" I checked, Bryon nodded and skated around me taking a swing at Johnny, I laughed but quickly pulled him back, jake helped me.

"What the hell ref, you going to let him get away with that?" Johnny yelled pointing a Byron I stood in front of him, if he doesn't can it I'll take a swing at him myself.

"Your out kid" he pointed at Bryon "what the hell he deserved it" I shouted

"Watch it or you'll be out just as quick" he spat back, I kept my mouth shut and skated back to my spot.

"Don't worry about it, we'll get him" Jake said slapping me on the back, I simply nodded, and Johnny took him spot in front of me.

"One down three to go" he grinned probably referring to me Jake, and Conner. "Watch it" I gripped onto my hockey stick to stop myself from hitting him.

as soon as the puck was dropped Johnny pushed me causing my to fall, pushing myself up off the ground I skated following the puck, when Conner stole it he passed it back over to me and I skated down the ice dogging the bears.

but I was being pushed around from every angle, so was Jake so he couldn't help me much "Damn it!" I mumbled angry as the puck was taken, out of the corner of my eye I could see Conner fighting with some guy.

"Your out for the rest of the game pal" the ref said, I sighed, and continued to skate for the puck

"Johnny just give up your going to lose anyways!" I yelled from behind him, he stuck his stick out to try and trip me but I smoothly jumped over it, mentally highfiving myself for my damn good moves.

Casually I stuck my stick out as if I was reaching for the puck, and tripped Johnny, he fell face first onto the ice, and slammed his fist down, as I skated away with the puck.

winding up I took a hard shot but sadly it bouched off the post, I glanced up at the clock 1 minutes left.

I once again started to chase the puck, getting it once again, I wrapped around the net, and snuck it in the corner I heard the buzzer sound with just 10 seconds left in the game, everybody cheered, and I was picked up and placed on Jake, and Bryon's shoulders.

People were throwing flowers, and cheering "we won!" I heard a bunch of guys yell while jumping on each other, I glanced over to find Liam, and noticed that he wasn't there.

did he not want to watch me play or something?  Was it that bad?

"We're going to miss you" Jake smiled putting me back down "I'm going to miss this team, I'll be back though, this won't be the last of us" I said hugging Jake which led to a group hug from the team.

I watched as coach handed me the large trophy, I stood in the middle and took my helmet off along with all the guys, and they knelt down beside me while we got our picture taken.

winning felt really good, but this time it was different, I worked with these guys, and they played a big role in this win, we wouldn't have played like we did if we hadn't have worked together.

this would have been better if I had seen Liam when I looked over for him in the crowd.

picking up my helmet and handing coach back the trophy I skated over to the change room doors, I need a shower, and then I want to find Liam, wherever he got off to.

"Hey Alison" I saw Johnny emerging from the corner, pissed off clearly.

"hey dick" I grinned, he shoved me up against the wall, pinning my arms down to my sides. "good game" he whispered in my ear, I could feel his breath on my neck, which made me uncomfortable, but I couldn't move.

"get off me" I squirmed, but didn't have much luck at getting out.

"You know the only reason you won was because you distracted me" he grinned his face was close to mine "Johnny stop" I said, my voice shaky.

"what scared" his face hovered in front of mine.

"what the hells going on here?" I saw Liam standing behind Johnny, pissed off, Johnny let go of my arms and I stepped away from him closer to Liam.

"Nothing man, she came onto me"  Oh hell no, he did not just say that, pissed off I stepped forward, handing my gloves to Liam, and I punched him right in the nose, causing it to bleed, it didn't even hurt.

I heard a small laugh come from Liam.

"what the hell?" Johnny whined, by this point everyone was watching, laughing.

Johnny ran off into his dressing room leaving me in the hallway with Liam, everybody else had already gone into our dressing room, I turned to Liam who wrapped his arms around my waist pulling me into him, our lips crashed together.

I missed this, it was honestly the best feeling ever, something I'd never get tired of.

a couple minutes later I decided I wanted to get showered, cause I was sweaty and gross.

"you played really well babe" he smiled kissing me one more time "thank you, I'm going to change quick, wait for me out front?" I asked grinning "I'll be there" we parted ways and I walked into the change room.

"there she is" one of the guys shouted everybody looked at me and clapped "what" I asked "Your a real captain Alison" Jake slapped my shoulder, I culdn't tell if he had just showered or if his hair was wet with sweat.

"thanks guys, I'm going to skip out on the party tonight, sorry guys, I've got some catching up to do, but I promise next time I'm in town I'll give you losers a call" I smiled as I started to get changed. I heard some awe's but I knew that they understood.

I definitely have some catching up with Liam to do, its been so long since he's held me close to him, since he's kissed me like he used to.

about 10 minutes later I was showered and dressed. "Don't be a stranger" Jake smile waving goodbye, I tossed my hockey bag into my jeep and climbed in beside Liam.

"You played amazing babe" he smiled I kissed him quickly and started the jeep. "where do you want to go?" I asked. 

'How about my house, the boys are all staying at Peters helping him pack up, so we'll be alone" I grinned

"Sounds good to me"
