"Yeah, he figures out she’s buried there. Has a spiritual awakening and shit." I grumble. "How does that relate to me?"
"It’s supposed to teach you the journey is worth it and the result might not be what you were expecting but it always ends the way it’s supposed to." Felix says as he navigates to another movie.
"Shrek?" Are they serious? "If you tell me I’m the fucking donkey I’m going to fight your asses on the ice tonight."
The boys share a look.
Assholes.
"Okay then, we have time to watch this one before we have to meet at the bus." Felix navigates toNational Treasure.

Was this the right call?
"Here'syourpass,itgets you access at the club and ice level."
"Thank you." I say to the curvy blonde named Lydia handing me my credentials for the game. We're in the tunnel where my driver was able to drop me off.
"Zara has my number but it's here on my card as well. If you need anything just let me know."
"Okay." I agree and then she turns and walks in her black patent stilettos into the office she came out of.
"Snacks?" Harper asks as she links her arm into mine.
"Sure."
"Actually we should just head up to the suite, we don't want to spoil the surprise." Jo says.
After they called I got in the shower and stepped out to a hundred new messages in The Stick Handlers group chat about Operation Kilt Surprise.
Not my choice.
In the last 24 hours everyone has been keeping the chat updated. I was told to keep calling Duncan on the off chance he answers, but still, nothing.
I was told Duncan had his movie night moment this afternoon, whatever that means, and then Operation Kilt Surprise Phase Two officially began.
I’m not clear on the phases but they’re important to the girls so I’m just going with it.
The plan is basically me coming to the game and surprising Duncan afterwards to tell him I love him too and want to be together; for real.
Forever.
Zara knows I'm at the game but not what might come out of it. I didn't want her making any moves until I knew if Duncan would want to give it a shot or not.
She's been helpful and apologetic in the fall out of Mike's kiss.
Harper, Jo, and I make our way to an elevator that will take us to the top floor of the arena. Just as the doors close my phone vibrates.
You Know You Want It
I know it's last minute but if you're not busy, I'd love for you to come to my game in Nashville tonight.
"Oh my gosh." I whisper and Harper looks over my shoulder.
"Ahhh!" She squeals before slapping her hand over her mouth and Jo grabs my phone.
