Igor
It turns out the only thing worse than being chewed out in Russian
by my old man is being bitched at in English by the woman who literally
holds my career in the palm of her claw like hands.
Most people think it’s the bench boss that a player should be afraid
of.
Those people?
They’ve clearly never met Harlow “Hot Rocket” Hennington,
Owner and GM of the Dalvegan Dragons ice hockey franchise.
And yeah, Hot Rocket would be redundant – since that’s what a
rocket is – if it weren’t for the fact hot was in reference to her temper rather
than her body.
Though, I’ll admit it.
Even this pregnant she’s still a fucking snipe.
“The event was called Family Fun Day with the Dragons,”
Hennington shrieks from the corner of the hospital waiting room she’s
commandeered, “not Family Trauma Day caused by the Dragons!”
In spite of my actual ability to tower over her – given that I’m six
foot five and built like I put shots in the Olympics versus slap pucks in the
rink – I find myself shrinking smaller and smaller, doing everything in my
fucking power to become the same size as my daughter’s favorite bite size
Princess Bell that I’ve had to replace six times in the past two months
because the shit is like a micro mini.
Not choking hazard size.
Just annoy Daddy size.
The damn thing makes me feel even more like Paul Bunyan than the
flannel shirts I start wearing at this time of year when my favorite vintage tshirts stop being dress code acceptable.
Her honey brown fingers lunge in the direction of my face, curling
during the process. “What the fuck were you thinking, Alexeyev?!”
Yup.
I’m definitely fucked.
She just used my actual name.
I can count on one glove the number of times that’s happened and
still have a finger to flick off Snowman with.
And I should.
After all, this shit is his fault.
Had he not been trying to make plans to get that Moana wannabe to
suck his cock on her break and watched where the fuck he was going this
would’ve. Never. Happened.
Okay.
Probably not have happened.
I mean, yeah, I’m a little two left feet off the ice, but not like this.
Not trip over air to accidentally unplug a goddamn bouncy castle
with children and a princess character trapped inside.
Fuck me, I’m gonna be on some True Crime podcast for attempted
mass murder of The Really Loud House cast, aren’t I?
Against my better judgment, I try to answer what is obviously a
redundant question, “It was an acci-”
“Obviously, it was a fucking accident, you fucking pylon!” Her
frustrated jazz hand motions have my back hitting the corner wall space. “I
would never keep a player who would purposely pummel a fucking
princess!”
Brendan “Bricks” Brickley, her husband and one of our assistant
equipment mangers, not so quietly interjects, “No, yeah, I don’t think
you’re allowed to call him a pylon as the GM. Pretty sure the league and PA
have rules against that.”
They do.
