Hockey season isn't just a game in the Avengers compound-it's tradition, war, and love, all wrapped up in jerseys, beer, and shouting matches.
Everyone's got their team. Everyone's got their stakes. But no one's story is more complicated than Bucky and Y/N's-two people tangled in something that's not quite a relationship, but too much to be just friends.
As the playoffs heat up, so do feelings. Smack talk turns flirtatious. Bets get personal. And the pressure of the final game might just push them to finally face the truth they've been skating around: that maybe, just maybe, it's time to stop being almost lovers and become something real.
It's game on-for love, pride, and the Stanley Cup.

Prior to puck drop at the X, Kenzie and her best friend stalk the Minnesota Wild roster for any "attractive" and "cute" guys, even though they knew that most of them were out of their league and already had their spouses. However, Kenzie lands her eyes on a guy who was native to Russia, who after stalking his social media for a little bit, looked like he needed someone to talk to. After messaging him, he responds pretty quickly and him and Kenzie spark a conversation. After the hockey game with the Wild getting the victory over the Canucks, the same Russian hockey player gifts Kenzie a stick with a message written on the scuffed tape, and Kenzie feels something she never thought she would experience-more so with a foreign hockey player.

And in the hush between their histories, love didn't arrive with fireworks-it settled in like breath, like warmth, like home. Each of them carried a version of love they never believed they'd deserve. And when the world stopped asking them to survive, they gave each other something gentler: a love that stayed.
