EASTON
Losing a game on home ice is one of the worst feelings in the world. It’s a
kick right to the dick knowing you’re down in points as the clock is running
out, and no matter how many plays you and your boys try to make happen
nothing is connecting. Even more rage inducing is when it all goes down
against your goddamn rival.
Ryan Donnelly’s punchable smirk makes my blood simmer while the
two of us face off for the puck drop.
“Ready to dance again, Blake?” he taunts. “If the NHL doesn’t want
you, I’d say you have a fair chance twirling around the ice in tights. Magic
on Ice is calling your name.”
This fucking guy. He’s been a thorn in my side since junior league.
My teeth clench hard enough to send an ache throbbing through my jaw.
I won’t let him get to me. His game is cockier than ever since he was a
second round draft pick over the summer during the off season. The only
consolation is that the team who picked him has not offered him a contract
yet. They must want to keep him in the NCAA for further development.
I’m still fighting for my dream of being drafted by the NHL. It’s the
goal I’ve been striving for as hard as I can.
This is my damn year. I’m making sure of it, taking every chance to
prove myself. Freshman year I didn’t meet the eligible age requirements.
I’m still getting over the fact that no teams bit for me as a prospect during
this chance, yet they did for Donnelly. Even though Heston U beat
Elmwood in the championship to maintain our school’s unbroken streak of
winning Frozen Four.
Punching this asshole for having a better chance at making it to the pro
league than I do won’t get me any closer to it, only an ejection from the
game I love more than anything for misconduct.
I can’t change that he got drafted before me, but I can still beat him here
and now.
It’s the last period. With minutes left to spare, I don’t have time to fuck
around anymore. We need to put up points against Elmwood University to
take the W.
“It’s okay to admit you fantasize about guys in tights, Donnelly.” I grin
when he jerks his head. “Last I checked, you need to sign a contract. Any
official offer from Buffalo yet?” His gloves tighten on his stick and I laugh.
“Don’t sweat it, man. You can still make it on a team as a free agent after
graduation when their hold expires on your signing rights.”
Donnelly narrows his eyes, lip curling back with a growl. The ref’s
whistle blows and we sink into position for the face-off.
The puck drops to the ice and our sticks clash together. I win the battle
for possession and dart around him. It’s feeling good. My linemates are in
strategic positions, evading our opponents’ defense.
I’m flying down the ice toward Elmwood’s goal when my attention
snags on a flash of red in the corner of my eye. It interrupts the sea of dark
blue and green in the Heston student section.
What the—?
