Last night was one the best nights of my life. Everything just fell into place. And I really liked Lys. She had this aura around her. I rolled over in bed thinking about her. Then realized the time and jumped out to get ready for practice. I texted her good morning and wished her a good day at work. She texted back and told me to have a good practiced. She was sweet! I parked the car in the lot before texting her back. Then walked in to the arena.
“Morning guys.” I greeted them.
“Hey why are you so smug?” Kris asked me.
“He got lucky with his girl last night.” Max answered for me. I think I blushed a little.
“No! We just had a really great date.” I told them. “She is coming to the game tonight maybe I’ll introduce you guys.”
“Why is she coming to the game?”
“She is filling in for Sam.”
“Oh yea that’s right!” Max said. Sometimes he was in his own little world. We suited up and headed out to practice. Practiced was good. We practiced the drills we would use in the game that night.
“So where did you go last night?” asked Kris when we were back in the locker room.
“I took her out on Mario’s boat.”
“Wow. I would have pegged that for a later date.”
“Yea but I just feel something for her. I wanted our first date to be special.”
“Just don’t fall to fast.”
“Thanks.” I showered and headed back home before being back for the game. I would go visit her at work but I don’t want a repeat of yesterday.
I got a text from Lys right before I went out to warm-up. She said that she had great news for me! And she was going to make me wait the whole game because she wanted to tell me in person! We played a good game against the Senators and it showed. We won 5-2! I walked back into the locker room waiting to see her shining face. I sat down and took off my skates when I looked up I saw her coming into the room. She smiled wide at me.
“Hey great game!” she told me. I wanted to hug and kiss her but I fought the urge. Soon all the other reporters surrounded us. Again she tried to ask some questions but unfortunately couldn’t. I’d give her a private interview lately.
“Thank you Sidney.” The reporters told me before they left. I turned to Lys.
“I have to get one more interview.” She turned and walked toward Fleury. She was there a short time before she returned to my side. “So guess what!”
“What?”
“You know how some reporters follow you on road trips…”I nodded. “Well this intern reporter is going too!” I beamed!
“That is awesome!” I hugged her. We would have so much fun on this road trip.
“Mr. Morrison was impressed by my notes he wanted me to go on the trip.”
“I’m glad he was impressed.” I smiled. “Are you coming back to the house?”
“Do you want me to come back?”
“I would love you to come back but first I need to shower.”
“No worries, I’ll wait!” she went and sat in my locker. She was so cute. I was in and out of the shower in 10minutes. When I walked out in my suit I noticed that Max was talking to her.
“Speak of the devil.” Max turned around to face me. Lys just smiled.
“What are you saying about me?”
“Nothing bad.” I raised my eyebrow at that and she just giggled.
“Well I see that you have met Max, would you like to meet the rest of the guys?”
“Yes please.” I went to find a few more teammates but the only ones left were Kris, Marc and Tyler.
“Hey guys this is Alyssa, Alyssa Marc, Tyler and Kris.” She shook each of their hands.
“Nice to meet you.” She smiled. We stood there and chatted for a little bit. “Oh Tyler want to hear something funny?”
“Sure.”
“My mom’s maiden name is Kennedy so I think we could be long lost cousins.” She laughed!
“Ha- we possibly could be!” he smiled back. I am glad that her and my friends are getting along so well.
“Well we better get going. I’ll see you guys tomorrow.” We all said goodbye.
“Do you want me to take my car?”
“No I can drive.”
“But shouldn’t I learn how to get to your house?”
“Yes but how bout in the daylight when you can actually see it.”
“Okay. I just have to get my clothes out of it then. I’m sorry I should have done that while you showered.”
“It’s okay, babe. We can drive to it.” She agreed to that and drove to her car so that she can get her over night bag.
“I am so excited about the trip!” she told me back in the car. “I’ve never been to any of the cities!”
“Really?” she nodded.
“Will I have time to explore them?”
“You might but I don’t know if I can do it with you.”
“Oh it’s okay, I know your busy doing your thing. Being cute Mr. Crosby.” I blushed and laughed.
“Cute Mr. Crosby?”
“Well you are, I am only stating the truth.” I laughed harder. She was the cute one. We shortly arrived at my place.
“Okay, I have to type up my notes and then I am all yours.” She reached in her bag and pulled out her computer.
“Is that your Mac?” she nodded excitedly. I let her do her thing. I went upstairs and changed into sweatpants and a t-shirt. I secretly was hoping not to be in either of those tonight. But if not then I would be happy with just her in my arms.
“Sidney?” I heard my name and saw her walking up the stairs. “There you are.” She smiled.
“All done.” She nodded. Then I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her. She put her arms around my neck and kissed me back.
“Wait!” she ran down stairs to grab her bag and came back up. “Hold on.” She went into my bathroom and about two minutes later she came back out. She wore this black nightgown. I immediately got more excited. She looked down and back up. She tucked a stray hair behind her ears. She looked very shy and vulnerable. I walked up to her and lifted her head up. Soon our lips met. She kissed me back. I could tell she was a bit nervous.
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” She glanced away.
“Are you sure?” she nodded. “We don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do.” She then looked relieved.
“Okay. My friends told me to wear this because…”she trailed off.
“What?”
“No it’s stupid.” I gave her a look. “My friends told me that I needed to sleep with you or you wouldn’t like me.”
“What kind of friends are these?”
“Not very good ones.”
“Agree, you can change if you like.”
“Okay, I’ll save it for a better occasion” she smiled. I can’t believe her friends told her to do that. What kind of people were they? She walked back into the bathroom and came out in a t-shirt and shorts.
“Better?” she nodded. She looked more comfortable and honestly I thought this look was sexier.
“Does the media ride on the same plane as you?” she asked as we cuddled in bed.
“No sweetie, but I can make some arrangement if you like.”
“No it’s okay, I just wasn’t sure.” She smiled. “I am just really excited to be traveling! I love going to new places.”
“Me too I just wish we had more time to explore them.”
“Yea I am sure you could find something unique about every city!” I kissed her cheek. She was just too adorable for words. I was really falling fast for this girl. “So we are leaving at 2 tomorrow?”
“Correct.”
“Okay, I had someone cover my shift tomorrow for me. It was only an 11-4 shift so it wasn’t that bad.” She told me. “But what should I pack! I am such a horrible packer. I always take too many things.” I laughed at her. I used to be the same way.
“I was too but then I just got sick of carrying everything. But you definitely need your essentials. And bring a bathing suit some of the hotels have pools. If you are going to site see then I’d bring a pair of jeans and like 3 casual shirts. And of course your dress clothes.”
“And I am suppose to fit this all in a carryon?”
“Well we are going to be gone like 5 days so I think a suitcase is allowed.”
“Good! Because I have to pack at least three pairs of shoes.” I just laughed at her. “What’s so funny?”
“You are!” I leaned over to kiss her on her luscious lips. We made out for a little before falling asleep in each other’s arms.
My alarm went off too early. I wanted to stay in bed and cuddle with Lys. But we had a short morning practice before the plane leaves this afternoon.

“Morning.” I told her and she rolled over. I planted a kiss on her lips. We made out a little before I went to get dressed. I found her in the kitchen again. She had made me a quick breakfast before we left to get her car.
“So I will see you tonight in Nashville.”
“You bet! I can’t wait!”
“Have a safe flight!”
“You too babe.” I kissed her once more before she left the car. I made my way to our parking lot to get ready for practice. “Morning guys!” They replied. “So what you think of Lys yesterday?”
“She was sweet. I see why you like her.” Kris commented.
“Yea I think that it’s funny that she may be my long lost cousin!” said Tyler.
“She is cute. If you don’t work…”I slapped Geno’s arm but I knew that he wasn’t kidding. She is a special kind of girl that I do not plan on letting go of anytime soon. We all finished getting ready for practice and headed out onto the ice.
