Will/oc/Macklin A regular Sharks fan turns into the next fascination of the two rookies who can't keep their eyes off her once they notice her. Francesca is rather surprised when the two rookies of the San Jose Sharks seem to really like her, maybe even more than any of them would like to admit. Author's note: Mostly written for my own enjoyment, I like writing and I like Will and Mack so.. And I've not written anything in so long. Just curious to see how long I drag this on for!! If you read it, thanks a lot :)) Also please note, the oc is in fact 20!

You met Will Smith during your sophomore year at Boston College-cocky, loud, impossible not to notice. He sat behind you in stats class and spent the whole semester finding new ways to make you laugh. Somewhere between all-night study sessions and Friday night games at Conte Forum, you fell hard. Now, two years later, everything's changed. You've moved to California for grad school, and Will's a rookie in San Jose-alongside Macklin Celebrini, the Sharks' other rising star. You expect long nights and even longer FaceTimes with Will. What you don't expect is the way Mack looks at you. Or the way he looks at Will. It starts small. Lingering glances. A touch that lasts a little too long. Jokes that land with a flush of heat. But soon, you're caught in something that feels like more than just friendship-something magnetic, fragile, and impossible to ignore. Three hearts. One shot. And the question no one's brave enough to ask: what if love doesn't have to choose?
