LOGAN

“It’s been great so far. She’s usually at school, I’m at practice. But we had enough timme to spend one night talking about everything. Get this, we both have the same dream to travel to the Grand Canyon.”

Marcus and I are walking down the arena hallway to the locker room before that night’s game.

“So?” Marcus asks. “What’s the problem?”

“She’s driving me crazy.”

“If it’s driving you crazy, ask her to leave.”

“No,” I say a little too forcefully. “I mean, she’s driving me crazy in a good way. The way she laughs. And she smells amazing”

“Then tell her that.”

“I can’t.”

“Why not?”

I pause. “What if she doesn’t like me?”

“Dude, she wouldn’t be staying with you if she didn’t like you.”

“I told you, her dorm building flooded.”

Marcus watches me with raised eyebrows. “Seriously? You don’t think she could afford the fancy hotel with all that contract money?”

“Shh.” I look around.

“Just tell her how you feel. It’s a hell of a lot better than moping around like this.”

I shake my head. “I can’t do that.”

“Well, get your damn head in order because we have an important game tonight. If we win, we could gain a four-point swing. Our chances of going to the playoffs will be a lot easier.”

“I know.” I shake my head, trying to shake the thoughts of Riley away.

Six guys from the Cleveland Crushers appear down the hallway.

“If we lose tonight, they qualify for the playoffs,” I say.

From across the hall, I see a familiar face. Harrison Cooper is in his favorite blue suit as he walks with the rest of the team toward the visiting team’s locker room.

“Hey, isn’t this the first time you’re playing against the Crushers since you got kicked off the team?” Marcus asks.

“Yeah,” I mumble.

“Will you be okay?”

“Of course.” I look at Marcus. “Why wouldn’t I be?”

“You’ve got a bunch of relationship drama right now, dude.”

I force out a laugh. “Let me fix some of it right now.”

With Riley’s words on my mind, I walk over to Coop.

“Hey,” I say, grabbing his attention. Coop stares at me with a hardened face. His stern green eyes bring back memories of all the fights we had as teenagers, fights that were always solved with a cup of hot cocoa (a special Cooper family recipe). I stick out my hand, expecting a gentlemanly handshake. “I just want to say good luck tonight.”

Coop looks down at my hand and pulls away. I stand in shock for a moment before turning back to Marcus.

“Still mad, I guess,” he says.

“Yeah,” I say absently as I watch Coop pull away with the rest of the team. This would need more than a cup of special hot cocoa.

“Don’t feel too bad.” Marcus pats me on the back and pulls me into our locker room. “Get back at him on the ice. No fighting though.”

I smirk. “I can do that.”

An hour later, we’re standing at center ice facing Coop as we prepare to battle for the puck.

Coop and I facing off against each other has been huge news all week.
