Chapter 4
“OMG” Raina screamed.
“OMG” I screamed at the same time also. Then we both began to ramble “Sidney CROSBY basically asked you out on a DATE and he called you HOT and..just holy crap.” Raina practically screeched.
“Please slap me Raina. I think this is a dream…but besides him being hot, he was so nice. He talked to me the whole night..and he opened the car door and.” I sighed, “Like I said, way to good to be true.”
“Callista, why would’nt Sidney Crosby want to go out with you?” she asked but then I cut her off.
“Callista….”
“Shut up and let me finish. Your drop dead gorgeous, funny, nice, and you play hockey and have a life. That’s like perfect for him.”
I blushed, my face must have looked like a tomato. “First, I’m not gorgeous, and second, it wasn’t really a date. It’s like..two new friends getting too know each other.”
Still, that night I couldn’t go too sleep. I kept thinking of his voice and the way I felt when our legs touched. I can’t believe I’m falling for Sidney Crosby, he is way too good for me. It will never work and I’ll just end up heartbroken and looking like an idiot. Still…..I fell asleep dreaming of those golden brown eyes..
Chapter 5: Sidney’s POV
I was able to concentrate the first half of practice, but I was aware that Calli was going to come any time now. I know she’s just a friend, but something feels different with her. She’s just so genuine and can laugh at herself. Plus, being hot is an added benefit. Whoever gets to be her boyfriend, is one lucky guy….
That was when I noticed she was here. She looked adorable in a pair of short Bermuda shorts and a light purple American Eagle shirt on. She flashed me a smile when she noticed me looking. I noticed she was planted firmly on the bleachers, so chance of a repeat yesterday. The rest of the practice, I tried to impressive her by skating my fastest and shooting my fastest. Max noticed, and he kept ribbing me about it. Finally, practice was over.
“He he Sid can’t wait to get off the ice to meet his hoooot date.” Max teased.
“Sidney?Sidney Crosby? On a date..wow, this is as rare as…me letting in a goal.” Flower joked.
I blushed, “It’s not a date, it’s a meeting between two friends, and she happens to be a girl.” God she better have not heard this.
I took a shower changed into a pair of jeans and a button down white shirt. I answered the reporters questions patiently, looking them in the eyes. That’s when I saw one of them go to Calli, and I could hear everything perfectly.
“Miss, what are you doing here? Are you some one’s girlfriend or little sister?” The nosy reporter said. Panic flashed through me. Even if she said I was her friend, the press would have a field day with it.
“I’m one of the player’s friends. Excuse me please, I have to go to the bathroom.” She sent a smile in my direction, biting her bottom lip, before “going to the bathroom.” What more could I ask for, she knew how to handle the reporters perfectly. After they all left, she came back in.
“Hey Mr.Crosby, nice practice,” she laughed.
“Good job Calli, you didn’t fall! I give you a 10. Your looking pretty nice though” I teased her.
She raised her eyenbrows at me, “And your looking pretty sexy.”
“Did some one just call Sid the kid sexy? I think I have a dreadful fever..” Marc interrupted, laughing.
Calli immediately turened bright red and she managed to stutter out. “Y-your Ma-arc Andre F-fleury.” I laughed, she must be a fan or something.
“Yes I happen to be darling, please don’t wear the name out too much.” He said laughing too.
“Sorry, it’s just been you’ve been my hero for like ever. This is going to sound stalkerish, but I tape the games and then I watch you in goal. I take notes and then try it out in practice..it’s really helped actually. There was this one OT save that I totally copied off of you from..” she rambled.
“Well, maybe one day Marc could give you a lesson or something?” I looked at him, practically begging him, “I know he would love too.” I basically told him, but looking at Calli.
“That sounds great, I could never turn down such a great fan. Plus, you seem nice so of course.”
I think Calli’s about to explode, it looks like she’s stopped breathing. “Man Sid, your lucky I got a girlfriend” he teased me again.
“Come on Cals, want to go to lunch before Flower’s ego blows up?” I asked grinning.
“Of course.” She still seemed a bit shell-shocked, but she snapped out of it. “Can’t wait until you get to help me, maybe I’ll be able to beat you.” She laughed.
“Hey Calli, do you mind waiting for me behind the arena, it’s just if all the fans sees you in my car..the press will go crazy and it’ll become a huge mess.” I said nervously, I didn’t want her thinking I was being a jerk.
To my relief, she nodded instantly. “That would be pretty embarrassing, I’ll wait by the back doors and duck whenever we see some one” she joked before heading out.
