Elena "Leni" DeLuca has always known two things.
She was born into hockey.
And she was going to fly.
Growing up across the street from the Hughes family meant her life was measured in rink lights and driveway pucks, in early morning practices and late-night pasta dinners. Her older brothers chased NHL dreams alongside Jack and Quinn. Her father coached. The houses blurred into one.
And Luke Hughes was always there.
Quiet. Watchful. Only a few months older, but somehow steadier. From seven years old, they grew up side by side-best friends, constants, the kind of closeness that feels permanent before anyone has the words for it.
Leni falls first.
Luke resists.
Not because he doesn't care-but because caring feels dangerous. Because choosing her means risking the one thing he's never had to question: that she'll always be there.
But while Luke hesitates, Leni rises.
Her figure skating career takes her far beyond the quiet suburban street they shared-national titles, international podiums, Olympic whispers that turn into reality. By the time she's chasing gold in 2022, the whole world is watching.
Including Luke.
And distance has a way of clarifying what fear once clouded.
When Leni leaves, Luke finally understands: loving her was never the risk. Losing her was.
Sometimes you don't fall in love.
Sometimes you grow up beside it.
And one day... it flips.
