“Oh my gosh, this is so much better than on TV!”

Bree laughed and looked at Penny and Amy, standing beside her as they cheered for the beginning of the third period of the Hawks game. “How’s that? We can’t see them as well up here.”

“But the sounds, Bree!” Penny gushed, spreading her hands out. “The energy!”

Well, Penny wasn’t wrong, but that wasn’t exactly what Bree wanted from coming to Clint’s game.

He’d just gotten back from Chicago last night, he was playing in this game now, and she hadn’t been able to do more than talk with him on the phone while they’d been apart.

Today she’d had class all day, and she had never been more tempted to completely skip class in her entire life.

Three days. That was the entire length of time they had been apart. The most time they’d been apart since they had started seeing each other, and she’d felt like she needed to claw her way out of her own skin that entire time.

She still felt a bit of an itch and burn in her palms and the tops of her feet.

The only way to get rid of it, she knew, was to see Clint. To be with Clint.

It was a start.

And a start was better than nothing.

“Come on, come on, come on . . . ” she hissed as Clint went flying up the ice, weaving around other players, the puck flying from his stick to his teammates’ and back again with a dizzying speed.

Someone took a shot on the goal, but the goalie caught it easily and dropped it around the back of the net to one of his own teammates, who sent it up the ice to safety, forcing Clint and his line to race back.

Bree glanced up at the scoreboard, where the numbers read a tied score at two points apiece.

“SLASH!” Penny suddenly bellowed with the rest of the enraged crowd.

“What did I miss?” Bree asked, trying to figure out what had happened and why play hadn’t stopped when it did.

Penny sputtered in irritation, gesturing to the ice. “Twenty-three over there decides to hook Farraday like he’s being yanked off a stage while Farraday is making a press, and the blind ref doesn’t think it’s a
