This is it. The time I can actually see Brandon play, in person just in the other side of the glass. I'm sitting with Barbara and the other players girlfriends and wives. Girlfriend. I am Brandons girlfriend. I smile at that. I am still wearing his jersey since I haven't taken it off all day. I see the entire stadium go completely dark and Corey step on the ice. I hear nothing except a bullhorn that sounds like a passing train. They all start skating around like bees around a hive. This is it, this is their hive. It is their home, their place to make things happen. I see Brandon step on the ice and start screaming at the top of my lungs. The others look at me and Barbara who are to the point of almost passing out we are so excited and screaming so much. Only Abby Sharp laughs as she sees us. Brandon and Andrew look at us and I see Brandon blow me a kiss. I hear Frank Pelico on the organ while Jim Cornelison sings. His baritone voice takes over the entire stadium and even brings tears to some eyes. I look back and see a few of the wives and girlfriends playing on their phones. I almost slap the shit out of them but Abby turns around and tells them to put it away. She is like the ringleader of this all. Welcoming new kids, setting the older ones straight, and not giving a shit what they say back to her. Brandon and Andrew both play amazing and end up scoring 3 goals between them. Brandon had 2, Andrew had 1 and an assist, Jonathan Toews had 1 and an assist, and Patrick Kane had 2. All together for a win of 6-1. Corey was definitely on his game tonight just let one slip past. We all dance around and sing Chelsea Dagger as the boys hug it out on the ice. The phrase "BECAUSE IT'S THE CUP" gets tossed around, being said in every which direction. The series is now 3-1. When all the other girls start to leave me and Barbara walk down to the locker room. I walk in, look for reporters and scream, "FUCK YEAH HAWKS. THATS HOW YOU DO IT!" when I think it's safe. Brandon runs and picks me up. He is all sweaty and his beard feels weird. I wiggle to be put down and he finally does. Patrick Kane asks if I still have the unicorn mask. "Fuck yeah I do. Did ya think I would sell it on EBay yet?" I tell him. He just laughs and tells Brandon he got a good one. Brandon says we will be out of their soon but I say not to worry. As I'm waiting Jonathan comes up and tries to show off his muscles to me. He's walking around with just underwear, and his big ass almost takes me down. "Damn, you can fucking level someone with that, as my dad would call it, 'ba-donka-donk'" I say to Jonathan. He laughs and I feel someone come up and put his hands around my waist and pull me closer. I feel the beard on my neck and a head resting on my shoulder and know it is Brandon. We leave and go to his car. He opens the door for me and waits for me to get in and buckled until he closes the door. He turns on the radio and Country Girls (Shake It For Me) by Luke Bryan comes on. I sing the rest of it and Brandon still looks amazed that I can sing that entire song, well almost all the songs, on the country station. When we get to his house he says he is going to take a shower. He asks if I want to join, and I say maybe in a minute. He smiles and won't stop saying "pleeeeeease?" until I agree. When I get close to him he grabs me and pulls off my shirt. He is already in his underwear so my half of the job was done. He unzips my pants and throws them down. I get pulled into the bathroom in my bra and underwear. He takes off his boxers and throws them down and gets in the shower. I take off my bra and let it drop, pull off my underwear and get in the shower with him. He takes the shower head and sprays me down, slides a hand behind my lower back and pulls me closer. He puts the shower head back up and kisses me. He traces my sides with his free hand while I hold his face. We almost slip but he throws out a hand and catches us both. When we finally get out, it has been an hour. The entire bathroom is filled with steam that slowly swirls onto the hardwood floor of his apartment. I tell him I need to go home to get pajamas. He says I don't NEED to and he can give me a shirt and boxers. I have a feeling he is scared I will leave him and never come back. What I thought was a one night stand turned out to be the best day of my life. He goes to his room and pulls out a clean shirt and boxers for me to wear. He hands them to me and I go get changed. When I get back he is laying in bed. I go lay next to him. He turns over and brings me as close as I can possibly be and whispers, "good night, Jen. Sleep tight baby. Nothing can hurt you." As I fall into a deep sleep, I feel myself wonder even though it has only been a day, can I be falling in love with Brandon Saad?
