Don't Get Laid Where You Get Paid

**Sidney's POV**
I was in my house back in Pittsburgh, slouching on my bed thinking about Kayla. I have practice in an hour or so, but I can't focus, not knowing what I'm feeling inside. My head says one thing but my heart says another. I feel like tha luckiest guy ever to be with her, and it's what I've wanted for a long time now. And now that I got it, I could give it up so easily because I may not be able to hold this in for much longer. How unfair is this? I get with the girl I never would even try for, and I can't prove to other people how much I do lover her.

I got up and grabbed my hockey bag, and got in my car. I love her, so, so much. It's not fair that I can't be with her infront of everyone like I would like to. I don't even go for that type. I'm into girls with dark hair, blue eyes, funny, free, independant and athletic. Kayla however, is not. Independant maybe, but not whan I go for. And that's what's part of why I love it! I found love in the person I least expected it, and it's working.

When I see her today, I'm gonna kiss her on the ice, I'm gonna take her out with me and just...who am I kidding? I couldn't do that. I have a hard enough time holding a girls hand infront of my parents, let alone infront of a ton of people. I, I can't take it anymore. My love for her is too important to mess this up, I have to do it.

When I got to the areana, I immediatly went to Dan's office wanting to talk. He was playing with a rubber band, how productive. I knocked, palms sweaty, and knees weak. Am I doing the right thing? 'yes you are' the voice at the back of my head kept saying.

"Hey Sidney, what's up?"

"Nothing. Can we um.. talk?"

"Sure, what about?" he seemed shocked that I wanted to talk. I took a seat infront of his desk, doing this always makes me nervous. I feel like a kid at school in the principal's office waiting for a punishment. Thankfully I was a good kid.

"So what's on your mind Sid? Hockey troubles? New thaughts? What is it?" I took a deep breath clenching my hands together even tighter as I let out.

"Kayla and I are dating." I said it, I actually said it! Dan’s face went sort of pale.

“Your, your dating?”

“Yeah,” I trailed off, scratching the back of my neck.

“Well Sidney, geez, I don’t know what to say, have you told Ray yet?”

“No, why? Am I supposed to?”

“I think you should, here, let me call him,” he said getting on his office phone.Dan seems pretty shaken by this, it’s not like anything’s gonna happen with us. They’ll let her stay and keep her job, I know it. Once off the phone, Dan looked at me and shook his head. “He’s on his way Sid, and I don’t think he’s too happy about this.”

“Why not?”

“Because-“ he was cut off by Ray coming in looking a bit annoyed. “Because an employee isn’t supposed to date a player, especially not a personal assistant. This is your second year playing for us, I understand you may not remember all the rules we have, but it’s just one that you’ll have to follow for now okay Sidney?”

“But, but, I,”

“No buts, this isn’t your decision, I’m afraid we’re going to have to find you a new assistant,”

“What? Why?” How could they be doing this to me?

“Because you broke a rule Sidney, we can’t have you break the rules and you be the only one to get away with it. These thing’s must be done,” Ray stood tall.

“But geez Ray, I think we could be a bit more lenient, it’s not like it’s been affecting his play at all,” Dan stood up for me.

“Yes, but when the players find out, they’ll all be doing the same thing, we can’t have that happen,”

“Well Sidney isn’t the only one whose dated a colleague,” a familiar dickish voice said from the doorway. Landon. What a prick.

“What do you mean?” Ray asked getting even more angry.

“Well while Kayla was working for both Sidney and Jordan, she had a relationship with Jordan,” Asshole! “

You fucking snitch!” I stood up screaming ready to knock this guy out.

“What Sidney? You like her or something?” he baby voiced to me.

“Shut up! I love her okay! I love her,” everybody looked at me funny.

“Well, I um, I did not know that,” Dan said adjusting his tie.

“Thank you Landon, but I need you to please leave for a few minutes so I can finish my discussion with Mr. Crosby,” Ray said.

“Alright, see ya later Cindy,” he snickered on his way out. Gosh this man is a puss.

“So what does he mean that Kayla had a relationship with Jordan?” he asked sternly.

“She did, but a very short one.”

“And is he dating Amanda?”

“Not dating, but she’s defiantly sleeping around with the team.”

“Go figures,” Dan mumbled.

“Could you guys not tell?” I asked laughing a bit, then it just got awkward.

“Personally I did,” Dan said with a smile also, “But that’s not the case, Sidney, we now have to unfortunately get rid of both Kayla and Amanda, I’m sorry.” No! My head hung low.

“Please step outside while we call her in and tell her the news,” Ray said.

“Wait, could, could I please tell her? I think she’d appreciate it more coming from me.”

“Alright, understandable,” he nodded.

“And Sid?” Dan asked.

“Yes?”

“Is it true that you love her?”

“Oh more then anything.”

“Then why’d you tell us?”

“Because I couldn’t hide it anymore,” And with that I left to go find my girlfriend and let her know the news.
