“Apparently they’re true,” Charlene says with zero consideration for my privacy

“Char!” I smack her arm

“What?”

“You had an awful lot of trouble walking the day after your sleepover,” my mom says

“I’ this with you, especially not on a plane”

“Fine, fine Charlene and I can talk later” She winks at Char and drops into her seat I can hear her talking to Sidney There’s a lot of giggling I wish she wasn’t such a fan of the overshare, especially with Sid

We go directly to the stadium upon our arrival Don Toronto isn’t o—full of skyscrapers and horrendous traffic I’ht it would be like Maybe I expected elves, like the North Pole, which is ridiculous since it’s only an hour north of the US border Apart froular people If all Canadian ifted, I can understand why people would be willing to deal with the frigid winters

We make it to the stadium with only minutes to spare Charlene is shocked by the outfits—or lack thereof—on some of the hockey hookers Her pleather skirt is modest in comparison

“Should I have dressed like that?”

Charlene eyes a girl wearing a Waters jersey that’s been converted into a ht-hundred-inch heels

“No Definitely not Your cooter would freeze and fall off Then ould you have to offer Darren?”

Our conversation is put on hold as the Hawks take the ice Even in all the padding and loose-fitting hockey gear, Alex is hot I can’t wait to getto molest his fine ass, Buck’s reaction be damned It’s been teeks since I’ve seen hiry for some wood

The Hawks are up by the end of first period, but so is off with Alex He’s irritated I can see it in the set of his jaw and the overly aggressive way he deals with the opposing teaame with his lips mashed in a thin line He yells when one of the Hawks defense gets knocked down by a Toronto forward It’s like he’s looking for a fight

Buck is playing like he owns the rink He deflects four goals in the second period, allowing the Hawks to stay ahead Darren scores a goal at the end of the second period, giving the Hawks a solid two-point lead
