Heart and Ice

4

It's been almost 3 hours of my life sitting here, drinking with my coworkers, eating junk food, and watching the game. I don't know what exactly is going on but I'm having a pretty good time. I figured out the point system, but not the penalty times and how that works out aside from them being able to bench you for a time limit. We are nearing the end of the game and I can tell a few people from my group are already sloshed and will need rides home.

Final score of 8 to 3, and the home team had no problem keeping their score up which is why they are walking out as proud as they should be. Grabbing my things and making sure everyone has a buddy to ride home with I say my goodbyes and wait for Stephanie so we can head out together as well. I can see the away team coming out so I make my way ahead of them to not get stuck behind a ton of smelly sweaty men. Right when I turn the corner I feel a sting to my ass cheek and a chuckle from behind me. Who in the hell just touched me. I turn around quickly and see this tall blond with brown eyes and a number 27 jersey on, staring at me with a grin plastered on his face.

"Hey baby, how would you like to come home with me tonight? I'm sure I can make all your dreams come true!"

Did this F.uckin creep just say that and lick his lips? Eww who does that? I couldn't hold in my rage laughter. Like it bubbled up to the surface and was about to rear its ugly little head. f**k I hope I don't get fired for this...sorry boss lady.

"Ohh honey did your mom teach you how to flirt? Because aperently she drove you in the wrong direction, and if that's the case that explains why you also play s.hit hockey. Like do you even know what the f***k you are supposed to be doing? Because clearly you lack skills in more departments than one! Are you trying to make yourself feel better about the lack luster skills you have? Like dude you legit got your face bashed in and you think I'd want to go home with you? Nah I'm ok, thanks for the invite but I will rudly pass in that generous offer."

Before I could turn around and walk away this D.ouche canoe grabbed my arm tight and pulled me to him breathing down my neck.

"You F.UCKIN LITTLE B.ITCH IM NOT AFRAID TO f***k YOU UP, do you even know who you are talking to like that?"

Oh he thinks he's done something here? Yeah nope! I looked at him with fear in my eyes as if I actually had something to be scared of. In the sweetest and most docile voice I could muster I responded without missing a beat.

"Look man I am so so sorry, you are hurting my arm please let me go"

When he let up a little I c.ocked my other arm back and socked him right in the nose with full force. When he bent over trying to control the bleeding I kneed him in the face for better measure.

"Look little boy, you touch me again and I swear on my life and yours I will not hesitate to rip your testicle from your body. Touch any other woman for that matter like you tried with me and I will gladly put you in your place. What was it that you called me? Oh yeah Stupid 'little b***h'!"

This joke of a jock still tried his hand and grabbing me but this time I wasn't alone. One of the guys from the home team came running up and slammed into him full force like he was playing football. He readjusted himself and straddled him and began throwing punches.one of the referees and Ray came running up trying to pull number 5 from nuber 27.

"You wanna act like a hot shot but get your ass handed to you by one of our fans and can't even take the loss. What the f***k is wrong with you? F.uckin cowered. If she has a mark on her I will press charges on you myself, there are cameras everywhere so I know you won't be doing s**t here. You are f.uckin done get out of my rink Tim before I do more damage than her!"

Ahh so 27s name is Tim? Hmm fitting for a sore loser. I stood there shocked that someone even bother to stick up for me, let alone someone I don't even know.

"Hey are you ok? Let me have the medic check out your hand its bleeding."

What? I look down seeing my knuckles completely busted open and I had no idea I even did that. Looking up and finally regaining my thoughts I found it hard to talk. I'd lost my words when standing in front of me was this beautiful Adonis of a man. Tall with wavy dark brown hair. Beautiful green eyes and the most chisled jaw I've ever seen. I retract my previous statement god did in fact have a favorite it was just no linger Stephanie, but number 5 in all his muscled glory. GOD DAMN!!

"Hey did you hear me? Are you ok?"

Oh crap I never responded...ahh think think stupid girl!!!

"Yeah, hand busted, bleeding!"

I squeek out the first words that came to mind and I sounded like an i***t. I don't get tongue tired like this ever? What am I 10 years old going through puberty again. F.M.L.

"Sorry I mean I busted open my hand, I didn't know I was bleeding, but it should be ok. Nothing a little vodka can't fix. Thank you though."

I finally got a full sentence out. Number 5 took my hand to look it over and I immediately withdrew it, hissing out in pain.

"Yeah sorry sweetheart but the medic is taking a look at that. Could have tore something. It won't take long I promise."

Now I don't really like pet names, however anytime this 6'5 Greek God spoke I couldn't help but respond with a simple nod of my head. Completely forgetting we were also surrounded by others including my best friend, I came to and looked at her in reassurance that I was fine.

"Hey Alex do you want me to wait for you?"

"No it's ok Steph I'll call you as soon as I get home. Love you mammi!!"

After a quick hug from Steph I was led into the back area where they had the locker rooms and the medic area.
