After the team dinner I texted Lys to meet me outside of the restaurant and we would get some dessert. The guys and I found this nice ice cream parlor the last time we were here. I am taking her there.
“Hey!” I greeted her with a kiss. “How was the flight?”
“Good, how was yours?”
“It was alright.” I wish she had been on our plane I would have worried a little less.
“So where are we headed?”
“It’s a surprise!” I told her.
“Alright…so what is your schedule like for tomorrow?”
“We have an afternoon practice then press and game time, why?”
“Well, I did some scoping of the area and the country hall of fame is on the other side of the arena! I was going to go to it.”
“Well if you go in the morning, I’ll go with you.”
“Really? I mean you don’t have to, you should rest for the game.”
“Nah, it’ll be fun!” she beamed in the streetlight. I could tell she was happy to have me going. We arrived shortly to the ice cream parlor. I opened the door for her. “Surprise!” I smiled.
“Haha this is cool!”
“I am glad you like it.” It was just a little parlor. Lys ordered a waffle cone with vanilla ice cream and rainbow sprinkles or jimmies is what she first called them. I just laughed at her. “You’re not in Pittsburgh anymore sweetie.” She smiled at me. I ordered just a banana milkshake. We decided to walk and eat so that we can see more of the city. We passed by the Hard Rock Café!
“Ah Sidney I must go in there and buy a pair of sticks.” She exclaimed.
“Why?”
“Because I collect them!” she stated in a most obvious tone.
“Do you just collect HRC drumsticks or all?”
“Well…HRC definitely but I have a few other ones from Epcot, The rock-n-rollcoaster and the rock-n-roll hall fame.”
“That is so cool, do you play drums?”
“I used to in high school.”
“That’s so awesome.” She nodded. She ended up getting a gold pair of sticks. “Those are pretty cool.” I told her and we started to make our way to the hotel. I walked her all the way to her room. “Goodnight Lys.”
“Goodnight Sid.” We leaned into kiss and I watched her go into her room. I went up 2 floors to my room. I changed and climbed into bed. I kept tossing and turning. I kept thinking about Lys. How could I sleep when she was so close to me? I got out of bed and walked down to her room. I swiped the extra key and soon climbed into bed with her. “Sidney?” she asked.
“Yes.”
“I was just thinking of you, how did you get in here?”
“The extra key card.” She accepted my answer and turned to cuddle her face into my chest. I rested my arm on her torso and soon fell asleep.
I woke up the next morning after a great dream. I am not going to share it because I want it to come true. But I will say this, it was about Lys. I opened my eyes to see her staring back at me.
“Morning.”
“I had a dream that you came into my room last night but I didn’t think it actually happened.” She laughed.
“I couldn’t sleep without you knowing you were so close.” She blushed.
“I am glad that you did. I was starting to get scared being in here by myself that’s why I dreamed that you would come stay with me.”
“Wow that is weird.” She nodded. I kissed her then and proceeded to get out of bed. “Meet you in the lobby for breakfast at 830?” she glanced at the clock. It was 7 now.
“Yes I will meet you down there! Then we are really going to the country hall of fame?”
“Yes my darling we are.” I kissed her goodbye before leaving to go back to my room. When I reached my room I heard my phone going off. It was Kris. “Hey buddy…oh we were! I’ll be right down.” I completely forgot we had interviews. I called Lys and informed her the change of plans. I told her to go ahead without me and I would just meet her there. I quickly changed into some jeans and a nice polo before meeting Kris in the lobby. “Sorry about that man.”
“It’s okay. We were all getting worried. You weren’t answering the door or the phone.”
“I was with Lys in her room.”
“Oh well…let’s go.” He didn’t know what to say to that. We hopped in the waiting car to take us to the local radio station. We did two interviews at the station, one for the morning show and the other for the sports channel. By the time we got done it neared 10-o-clock. That would give me 2 hours with Lys at the Hall of Fame. I texted her that I was on my way but she never replied by the time I got there. Maybe she was mad at me. I went in search for her. “Alyssa.” I called. She turned around and beamed.
“Sidney, you came.” She came over to hug me.
“I told you I would and besides I texted you.” She took out her phone and read my text. Then she blushed.
“Sorry, I was on a guided tour. This place is awesome!” she took my hand and led me back to the group of people. We finished out the tour and then Lys wanted to take me back to see some of the stuff that I missed. It was pretty cool museum. I looked at my watch.
“Hey Lys do you want to grab some lunch before I have practice. It’s 1130.”
“Geeze is it that time already? Where did it go?” she laughed. “Yes I would love to but can we stop in the gift shop first please?”
“Sure, you wanna a pair of sticks.”
“You betcha and something for my college roommate. She LOVES country music so it wouldn’t be right if I didn’t get her something from here.”
“No, it wouldn’t be.” We went a purchased her sticks and she bought her friend a shirt that says, “Well-Behaved Cowgirls Rarely Make History.”
“Wait Sidney should I get the recycle one? She loves recycling. I just think this is cuter and she loves pink!”
“Go with the pink one.”
“Thank babe.” She purchased both items and we went in search of some place to eat. Walked toward the hotel and saw this place called “Robert’s Western World.” “Hey this sounds interesting let’s go there!” she said and that is where we went. I felt like I stepped out of 2010 and into the old country. “Oh this is too cool!” Lys snapped a couple of pictures before we were seated. The menu was pretty basic. You had your fried food, burgers and like two desserts. Lys got the grilled cheese and I ordered the turkey and Swiss sandwich. “Hey let’s get moon pies for dessert I never had one!” I laughed at her excitement. She was just too cute. We ate, laughed and talked. We ended up getting her moon pies for dessert. It was an overall great morning. I walked her back to her room before I headed to the arena. “Thank you for such an awesome time today!” I pulled her into a passionate kiss.
“You’re very welcome. And next time I am doing to double check my schedule before I promise to take you anywhere.” She smiled.
“Sure! All that’s really on my list for St. Louis is the Arch!”
“I don’t think that has a specific tour time so we should be good to go see it.” Lys giggled.
“Good luck tonight if I don’t see you before the game.”
“You’re not coming to press?”
“Well of course I have to go but I mean like this personal setting where I can do this.” She rose to her tiptoes and pulled me into a passionate kiss.
“Wow.” I stated when I pulled away. I think I am really starting to fall for this girl. We kissed one more time before she walked into her room and I went to mine to take a cold shower before practice.
After practice, I showered again and got ready for the press conference before the game. I spotted Lys in an instant when I stepped into the room. She looked so adorable in her professional attire. I answered some questions. They were similar to the interviews I did this morning. After that was over, I returned to the locker to get ready for the game. In the end, we won in overtime 4-3. There was more press in the locker room after the game and sure enough Lys was there as well.
“Mr. Crosby do you think the level of intensity was key to the motivation of the win?” Lys asked. I just stared at her for a moment. She finally was able to say something. I then answered her and the rest of the questions. After me she walked over and interviewed Kris and Fleury. “Hey babe, great game!”
“Thank you!” You could tell that we wanted to kiss but didn’t want to draw attention to each other. “So I will see you in St. Louis tonight?”
“See you in St. Louis!” she smiled at me. God do I just want to kiss those luscious lips right now! She left the locker room. I went to take a shower and then hop on the bus to the airport to go to Missouri. I planned to text Lys on the plane.
We arrived at the hotel around midnight. I dropped my luggage off and then hung up my suit before throwing on my pjs. I texted Lys and asked her what room she was in then headed there. She opened the door in just a t-shirt. Once the door closed safely behind us our lips met. She was so intoxicating. After we made out for a while we fell asleep in each other’s arms. It was a great day.
Friday, the next day we had off but practice. I needed to work out some kinks in my back so I would just head to the trainer.
“Good morning.” She told me then kissed my lips. “Are we doing breakfast?”
“If you want to, we can but I have to be at practice at 12.” She rolled over.
“How about you just be my breakfast, it’s 10-o-clock.” And with those words she kissed my lips more passionately. We spent a good amount of the morning just making out.
“Lys, I’ll call you after practice and we will go look at the arch this afternoon.”
“Sounds like a plan!” she beamed and kissed one last time before I left to go back to my room. On my way back I met Max.
“Hey, what’s up?”
“Nothing, where were you?”
“With Lys.”
“Sid, what happened to what your agent said?”
“What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him and besides we are not doing anything in public.”
“Well just be careful. Did you ever think this girl could be using you?”
“Are you serious Max?” I couldn’t believe I was having this conversation with him.
“You barely know her and you are sleeping with her every night. That’s a little trashy.”
“Max for your information we may be sleeping together but we are not having sex! We just cuddle and kiss.” Max didn’t know what to say. I was so mad at him. How dare he bring up my agent! My agent doesn’t approve of me dating anyone yet but when he meets Lys I am sure that he will understand. I walked past him and into my room to shower and changed before heading to the Ice Zone for practice.
