“It’s been just the thing I needed after a hard summer, personally. The team has welcomed me with open arms this season.”
“The summer you’re referring to is your wedding that was called off?”
Duncan nods, a sad look coming over his face. “My fiancée ran off with my brother.”
“Your brother, Dax Fletcher, star of the Nashville Knights?” he asks.
It cutsto footage of me playing, in case anyone doesn’t know who I am.
“How did you take this blow?” Rhino asks.
“I was devastated. I mean, your fiancée and your brother cheating on you? It’s a pain I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.”
“Fuck you, Duncan!”I turn the TV off and throw the remote. I can’t stand to watch another minute of his lies.
Dax
What the hell is the point of going on TV and lying?
Bode
Fuck man, I’m sorry
Marcus
Do you think something else is going on?
I have no idea
But why lie?
Bode
He probably still thinks he was the wronged party
Marcus
That fucker
I can’t believe him
Marcus
We’ll settle it on the ice when they come to town
Bode
That’s diplomatic
Better than wanting to punch him in the face
Bode
That would be really satisfying
Marcus
Don’t get benched before the game
