"Thanks for bringing me here again, B/F/N." I smirked as I leaned forward to watch them practice.

"No problem, Y/N. I knew how much you were a hockey fan and I know you're a Canes fan...." B/F/N chuckled before she gasped.

"B/F/N, what's wrong?" I frowned, trying to calm her down.

"Turn around." Was all that she said and I did as she told me to and I gasped.

Jeff Skinner and Noah Hanifin were blushing as we were looking at them. B/F/N knew how much I love Noah and I knew how much she loves Jeff.

Jeff asked for a silver sharpie and I got one out of my purse, handing it to him.

He scribbled something on his puck and gave it to B/F/N before he handed the sharpie to Noah. Noah scribbled something on his puck he had and handed both the sharpie and puck to me.

My puck that Noah had given me read,

"Hey,

Thanks for coming to the game today. I was wondering if you and your friend would like to drop by after the game at the locker room and we can get to know each other a little bit? - Noah."

My cheeks were heating up, a bright pink appearing as a sign of starstruck.

Eventually, the Hurricanes had defeated the Ottawa Senators 4-3, thanks to goals from Nestrasil, Lindholm, Hanifin, and Skinner.

Remembering to go down to the locker rooms, I grabbed my stuff and told B/F/N to follow me since I knew my way around the PNC Arena.

As I walked down to the locker room, I bumped into a tall figure.

"I am so sorry! Here, let me help you..." I got down on my knees and helped the stranger get his hockey equipment.

"Ahh, thanks for the help..The guys like to tease the rookies a lot...." A familiar Boston accent rang through my ears and when we made eye-contact, we both gasped.

"You're Noah Hanifin!"

"And you're the girl who I signed the puck for!"

We were speaking in hushed tones, not wanting to draw attention to ourselves.

We had a fun time talking to each other and exchanged phone numbers with a date tomorrow afternoon.

I walked around to search for B/F/N, when I found her just outside the locker room entrance, kissing Jeff.

"And I'm just gonna go to the car..." I left the scene quickly and ran to the car before she had the opprotunity to catch me.
