Steph's POV

---

I walked over from where I was talking to Toews, to Sid. He was laughing with Kunitz about something, and I hugged him from behind. He turned around and smiled.

"So Steph, you wanna get out of here?" He whispered into my ear.

"Sure. But where do you wanna go?" I replied. "Hm, I saw this awesome looking bar just a few blocks away from the arena. Wanna head there?" He nodded, and we both headed back to the locker room. I waited outside as Sid changed. He came out, and we both walked to his car. I jumped into the drivers seat and giggled. "Can I drive tonight?" He laughed, and nodded. I revved up the engine, and connected my phone with the USB, since all the radio stations were in russian. She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5 came on, and I squealed as I turned up the volume. I started singing the first verse, and Sid looked over at me, laughing.

"So you love this song too, huh?" He asked. I looked over at him. "You like this song too?! Sing along with me. C'mon, I wanna see if you are the worst singer in the league!" We both sang along, and the song ended as I pulled into the bar parking.

Sid led me to a table with two seats, ordered our drinks, and sat down in front of me. I smiled. "Sid, you know...your really, fucking perfect. Like, i'm not even kidding. I love you so much, I can't even-" He leaned across the table and kissed me, soft, and slowly on the lips. "Your the perfect one, Steph. And I found you. Your my puzzle piece." He leaned back into his chair. I couldn't help it. I felt my cheeks blush. The waiter brought our drinks, and I looked up at Sid as I took a sip. "So..um..what about Alex...? I mean, you guys probably like, hate each other now.."

Sid put down his glass. "Well, uh, if it comes up, I'll deal with him and his issues with me." He laughed. The rest of the moment went in silence, and I broke it. "You wanna get out of here?" Sid got up. "Alright, let's go."

We stood in the hotel lobby, and got into a elevator. I pressed the 30th floor button, and the doors shut. I wrapped my arms around Sid, and kissed him hard. I took control and pushed him back up against the elevator wall. He ran his hands down my waist, and began kissing my neck. The elevator dinged, and the doors opened on the 14th floor. We both froze, and sighed when no one came in. The doors closed, and Sid flipped us around, so I was pushed up against Sid. We began french kissing before I knew it, and I wrapped my arms around his neck. The doors to the 30th floor opened, and I stepped out and walked over to Sid's room. He opened the door, and I went and plopped down on the bed. I sighed.

"God, this day was so exhausting." I turned to face Sid. He was smiling. I knew what he meant. I giggled. "You sure..?" He nodded. "Nealer is gonna be out partying, hitting on Russian girls. His favorite" He rolled over the bed and began kissing me. I pulled his shirt up and took it off, throwing it to the floor. I stripped off my tights and my sweater. I didn't know about Sid, but...this was my first time. I was getting butterflies in my stomach, but I didn't pull back. I wanted this. I was laying naked in only my bra and underwear, and felt goosebumps over my body as he kissed me. I giggled at his hockey boxers, and I lay down under him, and he climbed on top of me, and leaned in to my ear. "You know, I can't shut up during sex." I laughed. "Alright, well you might have to, because otherwise it'll piss me off." I replied. He chuckled. "Okay well for you i'll try not to talk and make everything awkward." I pulled him closer to me, and whispered into his ear. "Great."
