Everyone noticed that it landed on me, they all looked at each other unsure of what was going to happen. I looked at Jordan who once again had the stupid smirk on his face. I got up and so did he. We stood there for a second just staring at each other. If it had been anyone else the guys would have yelled something along the lines of 'hurry the fuck up' or 'get it over with already' but, they all knew the circumstance and were watching intently for our next move. We moved closer to each other until I could feel his hot breath on my face. His eyes were fixed on mine, filled with lust. I'm sure mine looked the same. Slowly he wrapped his arms around my waist, my arms linked loosely around his neck, both of us unsure. Neither of us wanted to wait anymore. His lips came down onto mine. The kiss getting more vigorous as the time went by. My hands found there way through his hair, my arms linking tighter around his neck. His hands moving from my waist to the small of my back, pulling me closer as he did so. Soon his hands found there way down to my ass. I let my hands roam along his arms and chest, feeling his muscles tense up as I did. Forcefully I felt myself being pushed up against a wall. I could hear the 'gasps' of some people around us, not expecting this at all. His hands cupped under my upper thigh pulling me up against the wall. "Okay WOW! enough is enough. I do not want to see you two fucking the shit out of each other in front of me, and I'm sure I am not the only one. I mean it was just an innocent game of 'spin the bottle'. Leave it up to you two to turn it into some goddamn porno!" Max joked. I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks. Jordan and I looked at each other and he set me down. As we both walked over to sit back down, Malone and Colby both whistled. "I don't think anyone can beat that one for tonight." Marc-Andre said. "Yeah, I think we need to officially call it quits for this game." Sid replied. Kris Letang leaned over. "What the hell was that?" He whispered in my ear. "Good question." "You guys just can't keep away from each other." "I guess you could say that." I replied. People started getting up one by one and busying themselves with other things. I just got up and sat on the couch. I could tell that people were whispering and discussing what just went on between Jordan and I. I looked around the room and noticed Jordan was quietly talking to Sidney in the corner by the bar. Eleigh was with them but, she caught my eye and came over to sit with me. "Wow Rae. That was, a bit unexpected." "Your telling me." "You guys are the weirdest couple, I swear to God." "haha I know right, leave it up to me." "So what exactly does this mean for you two?" "psh the hell if I know." "Well are you going to talk to him?" "I mean I suppose I should but, it seems a tad bit awkward." I took a quick glance at Jordan and I caught him staring at me. "Oh come on, you have to talk to him." "ehh I don't know." "I wasn't asking, now get your ass over there before that blonde bitch sticks her tongue down your mans throat again." She pushed me up off the couch. "Your a bitch you know that?" I joked with her. She just smiled at me. I reluctantly walked over to Jordan. Sid noticed me coming so he realized that was his cue to leave. I stood in front of Jordan, we just stared at each other. I could feel that every one's eyes in the room were on us. I decided to speak up first, I couldn't stand the tension. "Jordan? Can we....uhhh....talk?"

My throbbing headache wasn't much help the next morning. I opened my eyes only to quickly shut them closed and pull my covers over my head. After what felt like five minutes I got up and went to the bathroom. I glanced in the mirror and noticed how terrible I looked. I decided I needed a shower. When I got out I wrapped a towel around me and went out of them room. I wasn't surprised when I saw Jordan sleeping on the couch. I walked right past him and went into the kitchen to get a water bottle. I then proceeded to go into the bathroom and get a couple of aspirins, I needed something to make this hangover go away. I went back into Jordan's room and started to pack up my things. I wanted to get away before Jordan woke up and luckily I did. I sat in my car, staring ahead thinking of where to go. I decided to call Eleigh. 'ring,ring,ring' "Hello?" "Rae?" "uh yeah, Hey." "What's up? Is everything alright?" "Considering Jordan and I aren't on the greatest terms, I don't really have anywhere to stay and well....-" "Would you like to stay with me?" She asked. "Well, yes actually that would be quite nice." "haha alright come by whenever." "okay I'm on my way."


I got myself settled in at Eleigh's and we were watching TV on her couch when Sid walked. Eleigh welcomed him with a hug at the door. They came back over to the couch hand in hand and sat down next to me. "Hey Rae." Sid said. "Hey." Eleigh snuggled up next to him. Ugh who I was I kidding, watching them together drived me insane. I couldn't stand watching them be all over each other. I got up and decided I would try to take a nap, or something. "Hey Rae, where are you going?" Eleigh asked. "Uh I'm tired, I'm just going to go lie down." "Alright." I went into the guest room, where I was temporally staying and started unpacking my things. After everything was unpacked I noticed I couldn't find my purse. 'Shit' I thought to myself. I left it at Jordan's. I quickly slipped on my Uggs and left for Jordan's. "Rae, Where are you going?" Sid asked before I could slid out the door. "I left something at Jordan's and I have to go get. Wish me luck." Before he could reply I shut the door and hurried out to my car. I wanted to get this over with. Seeing Jordan and having to talk to him was not something I was too thrilled about. I arrived at his apartment and reluctantly dragged myself up the stairs. 'Knock,Knock' The sound of my fist against his door echoed throughout the empty hallway and made me even more nervous to see him. He opened the door and a smirk crept along his face. "Forget something?" He asked with a cocky edge to his voice. He knew that I hated having to come here and see him. "Yeah, actually." I replied. "Well, come on in." He smiled and motioned for me to enter. "So..What's up." He asked. I could tell he was trying to piss me off by acting like nothing happened. "I didn't come here to talk to you, nor do I want to. I just want to get my purse so I can leave." "Someones a bit touchy today, eh?" I ignored him. "Alright, follow me I'll help you get your purse or whatever." I followed him into his TV area only to be shocked by who I saw. "Sean what the hell are you doing here?" "What? You said he was a cool guy, so I thought I would hang out with him." Jordan added in. He was really starting to piss me off. "Jor can I talk you alone?" "Of course babe." He winked at me. Even though he was pissing me off, I had to admit that part of me thought it was cute. Considering the fact he looked fucking hot also added on to that. I started walking into his room and he followed. "Oh so this is what your after, taking me into the bedroom." He teased. "Trust me, if that was what I was after I wouldn't be coming here." "oh ouch." "Can you just give me my purse?" "Oh I'm not quite sure if I know where it is." I knew he was lying. "Honestly what do you want from me?" "Oh you know what I want from you." He ran his hand along my thigh. "Yeah well that makes one of us." As much as I hated to admit it, that was a huge lie. I wanted him and he knew it. He slowly walked closer to me. "Don't kid yourself." "Shut the fuck up." I replied. I had enough of his stupid games. Even though deep inside I was enjoying it. "Oh I like it when your mad." I soon felt the wall against my back. I then realized as Jordan was inching closer to me, I was backing up. Until I couldn't anymore. I was trapped. "Jordan stop being an asshole and just give me my purse." He leaned in, his hot breath against my ear. "Fine, If that's the way you want it." He walked into his closet and came out with it. "Here." He handed it to me. I turned around and started to walk out. Before I left I looked at Sean. "Oh and if you are going to be hanging out with him while you are up here, I don't want to have anything to do with you." I turned around and left without looking back. I drove back to Eleigh's and went straight to my room. I didn't really feel like talking to anyone. All I could think about was Jordan and that's just the way he wanted it.

I must have drifted off to sleep because the next thing I know I was being woke up by my cell phone going off, signaling I had a text message. It was from Max Talbot. It said; 'Party at my house tonight, come over.' I wasn't really sure if I wanted to go. I knew Jordan would be there. Yet in the end I decided to go. I wasn't going to let him ruin my time while I was up here.

I hit reply. 'I'll definitely be there ;]'

I crawled out of bed and hopped in the shower. I needed to look good tonight, especially if Jordan was going. I decided to wear tight dark skinny jeans that made my ass look good, a low cut white tank top with a light blue unbuttoned sweater over it. I straightened my hair and applied some makeup. Slid on my black high heels and headed out the door. Sid and Eleigh were already there before I had even left. I suppose you could say I was being fashionably late. I parked on the street, considering Max's driveway was already packed with cars. I knocked on the door and waited. Max opened the door. "Well damnnnnnnnn Rae. You look good." "Haha thanks, I gave him a hug and walked in. "Everyone is downstairs, let's go." Max grabbed my hand and led me to the basement. I look around and pretty much the whole team was there.........including Jordan. I walked over to Colby who was pouring drinks. "Here you go Rae." "Thanks." Through out the night everyone drank huge amounts of alcohol. I soon found myself in the midst of a game of 'spin the bottle'. It was Jordan's turn and it landed on some blonde girl I've never seen before. He smirked at me before sticking his tongue down her throat. A kiss that lasted a little to long for my liking. Finally it was my turn. I spun it and it landed on none other than Max. I got up and walked towards him. At first it started as an innocent kiss but then he placed his hand on my lower back pulling my closer to him. My hands found there way around his neck also pulling him closer to me. I wasn't really paying attention to how long that was going on for but we were interrupted. "Okay you two, enough already." Marc-Andre said. I blushed and pulled away. I looked at Jordan and smiled before I sat back down. Two can play at this. The game was pretty tame after that. I got a kiss from Kris, Colby and Marc but, nothing to the extent of Max's. I wasn't really paying much attention until I realized it was Jordan's turn again and......it landed on me.

I walked back up to Jordan's apartment. "Hey babe is there a problem with Sean or something?" I asked as I sat down next to him on the couch. "uh...not really." He answered hesitantly. "Not really?" "Yeah, just forget it. Let's just go out to get something to eat." "Uh alright." "I'll invite a bunch the team since you haven't seen any of them in forever." I nodded my head and smiled as he got up and went to grab his cell phone. "Oh and can you make sure that Sid brings Eleigh?" I asked. I hadn't talked to her in forever. "Will do." He walked into his bedroom while dialing a phone number. I needed to get ready so I went into Jordan's bathroom and got in the shower. After a couple minutes I heard the shower door sliding open. "Yes?" I asked. He stared at me for a minute. "Jordan?" "Oh uh yeah. Just wanted to let you know that pretty much everyone is coming. The only ones that are not are the unimportant ones we never really hung out with." "....and you couldn't of waited to tell me until I got out of the shower?" "eh no, I prefer this view anyways." I rolled my eyes and shut the shower door. "You love me, don't try and deny it." He said while still standing there. "Yeah you keep telling yourself that." I joked. He once again opened the shower door. "You love me, just admit it." "If I admit it will you let me finish my shower?" "ah maybe." "Jordan, we are gonna be late." "Hey it's not my fault." "Okay fine I love you." "I know, how could you not." I took the head of the shower and pointed it at him. "Uncalled for!" He yelled. "tehe. What are you gonna do about it?" I teased. "This." He got in the shower with his clothes still on. "Jor--" I was cut off by him kissing me. After I was out of breath I decided we really needed to get going. "Jordan we are going to be late and I hate being late." "Hey, you brought this on yourself." He said while taking off his soaking wet clothes and throwing them out of the shower. "What so you are punishing me now?" "You could call it that." He said while winking at me. "ugh the things I have to put up with." I said while pulling myself closer to him. I let my hands roam around his upper thighs while I left a trail of kisses down his neck and stomach. When I reached down by his cock I did what I knew he wanted. When he had had enough of that he pulled me back up, shoved me against the wall and pushed into me. Once we had finished our task at hand we both got out and started to get dressed. I went over to my suitcase and dumped it out on his bed. I had no time to be neat. I searched through my clothes until I found something to wear. I decided on a short, red plaid, pleated school girl skirt and a black sweater from Hollister. I finished off the outfit with black knee socks and my UGGs. I settled on leaving my hair curly and wearing my favorite diamond necklace and earrings. Once I had finished my makeup I walked out and over to Jordan. "Well damn." He commented. "Let's go."We are already insanely late because of you. "You wanted it." "I never denied that but, that still makes it your fault." We jokingly argued about the topic until we arrived at the restaurant. It was a nice Italian place that we used to always go to with the team before I had moved so I found it appropriate to go there again. We walked in and up to the lady at the front. "Hello Mr. Staal I'll show you to your table." As we were being shown to our table Jordan put his hand on the small of my back and walked closer to me. "Are you ready?" He whispered in my ear. "Not at all." I replied. To be honest I was extremely nervous to see everyone again. I had no idea what their thoughts of me were. Considering they were all on Jordan's side during our whole fight. Who knows what he had told them. As I looked at the table it was just as I suspected, everyone was already there. I looked at the time on my cell phone real quick. We were an hour late. "FINALLY." Max yelled. As he said that, everyone turned and looked at us. Which made me even more nervous. "Damn, what were you guys getting it on before you left or something?" Colby asked. I could feel my cheeks getting red. Neither I or Jordan said anything, we just looked at each other. "EW they were!" Max said. "Anyways..." Jordan said. I walked over to Eleigh. "Rae! It's been too long." She exclaimed while getting up and hugging me. "I know I have missed you so much." "Same here, we need to hang out while you are up here. You have a lot to tell me about everything." "Oh I know and same for you. I see you and Sid are still together." "Yes we are." She said while kissing him on the cheek. I walked around the table saying 'Hi' to everyone and giving them hugs. Colby and Malone were there for some reason. I guessed probably because it was around Thanksgiving so they had time off. After finally getting around the whole table I went and sat next to Jordan. He put his hand on my thigh and leaned over to whisper in my ear. "You did good." I replied by smiling at him and kissing him on the cheek. "Okay you two. You can hold off for a few hours, I hope." Colby said. "I wouldn't be too sure with her." Eleigh added. "Ha Ha very funny you guys." I replied.

Throughout dinner we talked about pretty much everything. I was the main topic of the evening, of course. I told everyone about my life in Florida and all that good stuff. It seems like every time I meet people now a days all they want to talk about is my life. It was around 11:30 when I felt my phone vibrating in my pocket. I looked at the caller ID. It was Sean. 'Shit' I thought to myself. I didn't even think about inviting him to dinner with us. "Hey Sean." I said while answering the phone. "Hey Rae, I just wanted to let you know I am all settled in my hotel and everything." "OOO Who is Sean?" Fleury asked. I ignored it but, Jordan replied for me anyways. "Some guy she brought up from Florida." "Jord I'd keep an eye on her if I were you." Malone added in. "Oh trust me, I know." He replied. "Excuse me Jordan? What is that supposed to mean?" I exclaimed. "Nothing, just get back to your phone call with your new best friend." He snapped. "WOW Jordan what is your problem with Sean?" "Rae, just leave it alone." "Rae?" I heard on the other end of the phone. "Oh yeah, sorry Sean. Can I call you back?" "Uh...Yeah no problem." I hung up the phone and put it in my purse. "No, I will not leave it alone. I bring a friend up to meet you and all you can do is act like an ass." "Rae, I told you I'm not dealing with this or you right now." He said under his breath. I could tell he didn't want to make a scene in front of everyone. "Will you excuse us for a minute." I said to everyone while grabbing Jordan's arm and pulling him with me. I took him outside so we could talk. "Jordan what is wrong with you?" "Oh don't give me that." "Give you what?" "I see the way the Sean guy acts around you." "We are just friends Jordan." "Hah don't make me laugh, you being just friends with a guy? I'll believe that when pigs fly. You practically fuck every guy you meet." I brought my hand up and slapped him across the face as hard as I could. "I don't know what the fuck your problem is Jordan but, I haven't done anything with Sean." "Oh stop with the bullshit." "No Jordan. You stop. Stop with your fucking high school drama. Once you grow a pair and stop acting like such a jealous pussy, get back to me." I walked back into the restaurant and sat down. I wasn't going to let him ruin my night. "Woah looked like things got a little heated out there." Sidney added. I ignored him. "Is everything alright Rae?" Eleigh asked me. "Not really but I'm here to have fun with you guys. Let's go to the club." "Now that's what I'm talking about!" Max said while getting up. "Club?" Malkin asked. "Yes, the club." I answer. "Woohoo I love club!" I laughed. Malkin could always make me smile with his bad English and stupid remarks.

We all went to the club. Yes, even Jordan. I didn't talk to him all night though. We all got pretty drunk. Around 4:00 in the morning I had Malone drive me back to Jordan's. Thank God he wasn't home yet. I put on some sweatpants and a tank top and got into his bed. He could sleep on the couch tonight, Hell he could sleep outside in the snow for all I cared.

The next week went by rather slowly. I felt somewhat lonely with Jordan not there. It was Wednesday afternoon when I walked down into the kitchen and found my mom talking with a man, his back towards me. He turned around and I was shocked at who I saw. The guy I met at the airport. Sean? I think his name was. "Good Afternoon Rae." My mom said to me. "This is Sean, I hired him to help with ideas for our backyard and all the landscaping." She looked over at Sean. "Sean, this is my daughter Rae, she just came to live with me a few weeks ago." "Yes, I believe we have already met." "Oh?" My mom replied. "Yeah I met him at the airport on Sunday." I added. "What a small world we live in huh?" She said. "Yeah I suppose." "Well, I have to go meet up with someone for business, so I will talk to you guys later. Sean if you need anything just ask Rae." "Alright, will do." My mom then walked up to me and hugged me. "Bye darling." "Bye mom." She slid on her shoes and left. I highly doubted she was going to meet up with someone for the type of business she was referring to, I knew exactly what she was doing. I suppose it was nice of her to try and hide it from me and do it in a polite manner though. "So we meet again." Sean said, interrupting my thoughts. "Yes, we do." "Shall we start our conversation off to where we left it last time?" He asked. "Nice try but, I still don't know you well enough. In time though." "You are a tough one." "What can I say?" "Considering it's my break and I'm hungry how about I take you to get a bite to eat? Then maybe you'll let me in on this mysterious life of yours." "Hmmm, I suppose I could pencil you in." "Alrighty then let's go." He then took me to a near by restaurant that had pretty basic food. I finally gave in and told him about everything my life had to offer, including my dad and Blaine, and why I moved to Detroit and now Florida. After that all he could say was 'wow.' I didn't really care though, most people didn't know how to respond when I told them about how messed up it is, I was used to it.



3 months later;

Things between Jordan and I were still going pretty strong. He visited me as often as he could and I was really starting to like living in Florida. Sean and I continued to hang out on his breaks everyday which eventually led to us hanging out on the weekends. You could say he became one of my best friends. I started going to a college that was near by so I could get a job working with Sports Medicine. I already had the basic knowledge for a trainer but, I wanted more. In a couple of days I was going to go visit Pittsburgh for the first time in a long, long time. I decided that I wanted to bring Sean with me so he could meet all my friends up there. Jordan didn't know I was coming, I wanted to surprise him.



Sean and I were on our flight to Pittsburgh and he seemed pretty excited. "You seem more excited than I am." I said to him. "Yeah well I like traveling to knew places." We finally touched down, got our luggage and grabbed a taxi. The taxi eventually pulled up to Jordan's apartment. I texted him to come and open his door. "Babe!" He said while pulling me in a hug and then kissing me. "Hey, I thought I would surprise you and come up here. It has been so long." "Ah I'm so glad you are here." He replied. Then he noticed Sean. ".....and you brought a friend I'm guessing?" He didn't look entirely happy about this. "Yeah this is Sean, I met him at the airport after you boarded your plane, back when you first came to visit me. He's one of my really good friends down in Florida." Sean smiled at Jordan. "Nice to finally meet you, she talks about you all the time." He said to Jordan while sticking out his hand. Jordan reluctantly shook it. "Uh.....yeah nice to meet you too." He said back, unconvincingly. "Well, come in." Jordan said. "So are you staying with me?" "I would but, I don't want to leave Sean at a hotel by himself in a city he doesn't know." "Oh Rae, don't worry about it. I will be fine. If you want to stay with him, I'll go to a hotel." Sean said. "No Sean I don't want to have to make you do it." "Rae, he is a grown man." Jordan added. I could tell he didn't want me staying in a hotel with him. "Yeah It is completely fine with me, like I said before." "Hmm...well you won't get mad will you?" I asked. "No, I promise. Just don't forget about me." He joked. "Well uh okay. I suppose. Don't worry I'll call you to check up on you and so we can hang out. I'll come down and tell the taxi where to take you, there is a hotel just down the street." I walked him down to his car. "I don't think your boyfriend likes me very much." He said once he opened the door to the taxi. "Oh don't mind him, he's just jealous." "Okay whatever you say, I just don't want to get you in trouble with him." "You won't and if he has a problem with it then I don't really care. He'll get over it." "Alright I'll talk to you later." He wrapped me in a hug before getting in the cab. "Call me once your settled in your room." I told him. He nodded, closed the door and off he went.
