Give Love A Try One More Time
Katie's POV
Nicole and I walked into my apartment and I dragged her straight into my bedroom.
“What has gotten into you? We’re just going to a movie.”
“Uh huh.” I nodded, flipping my clothes around in my closet. I quickly changed into some informal clothes before grabbing some clothes out of the back of my closet.
“Put this on.” I threw them at her.
“I gave you this for Christmas two years ago.” She glared at me, holding the clothes with tags on them.
“I love you?” I asked, walking out of the closet. I heard her huff and then she started to strip.
“T minus 20 minutes till operation ‘get Toes and Engler together by being very sneaky’ is a go.” I whispered into my phone.
“We really need a new name for this plan. What about… Nutter Butter?”
“How about no.” With that I hung up on Kane.
“I don’t see why you don’t like this outfit. It’s ador-“
“Shut up, grab your purse, and let’s go.” I grabbed my purse and made my way towards the door.
“Why are you being so shady?” She asked.
“We’re gonna miss the movie.”
“What movie?”
“Um… It’s a romantic comedy.” I shrugged, dragging her to my Escalade.
“Really? I was thinking horror.” She shrugged.
“Who knows, it may end that way.” With that I turned up the stereo and sped off towards our destination.
I pulled up out front of a cute café and parked, staring at her. She looked at me confused. Then her door swung open and a masked figure wrapped a blindfold around her head. She started screaming so he shoved something in her mouth. I unbuckled her and he dragged her from the car and pulled her into the café. Sitting in the seat across from where we dropped her was a blind and gagged Jonathan Toews. I took out his gag and untied his blindfold as a masked Kane did the same to Nicole. We both ran out the door.
“Have fun!”
“Be safe!”
“Use a condom, I shoved one in your wallet! Left cheek!” Kane yelled as we fled through the door.
“Did you really?” I asked, as he followed me to my car.
“Yeah, I took them out of my wallet.” He shrugged. “You want to go back to my place?” He asked.
“Not really.” I turned to get into my car but he stopped me.
“Come on. What could it hurt?” He smirked, leaning against the side of my car. His shirt rode up a little, showing off a small bit of his right stomach. His pants were low enough to see the start of the V that really fit guys have. I tried not to show I was affected.
“You’re not my type.”
“Let’s go out for a drink.”
“Like I said, you’re not my type.”
“What is your type?”
“Anything you’re not. If you don’t mind, I have to get home and go to bed. The boys have an early practice tomorrow.” I pulled my door open and got in.
“I know, we’re coming to that.” I groaned and started my car.
“See you at 7 AM.” I slammed my door shut and left the parking lot.
Instead of just going home I decided to head over to my friend Hailey’s apartment. It was, after all, only 8 PM. She answered the door with a smile and invited me in. After four shots of Jack I had spilled everything about the Blackhawks, Nicole’s surprise date with Toews, and Kane’s attempts to get me into bed.
“Honey, why don’t you tap that?” She laughed.
“Because… I can’t get over it. What if he does the same thing that Josh did to me? I barely recovered.” I sighed.
“Sweetie, you don’t know until you try.”
“All he wants is a fuck buddy. Haven’t you seen his name in the papers? He’s with a different girl every time. If it’s not about him going to jail it’s him taking a girl home and her being a clepto. I don’t want to do that. I want it all. The relationship, the engagement, marriage, babies. I can’t just do fuck buddies until something better comes along.”
“Kate, you never know. He may fall madly in love with you and then you two can have it all together.” She smiled.
“That’s what I’m also afraid of. He’s not trustworthy. Nor is he someone I can see myself hitched to forever. So it’s just a total ‘no’ in my book.” I took another shot.
“Alright. So, if you say you’re ready to be married and what not, how about I set you up with one of Mike’s friends? He’s also looking for a good wholesome person to settle down with. Ill call him tomorrow and you two can go out to lunch after hockey practice tomorrow.” Hailey suggested.
“Alright, sounds good.” With that we clinked shot glasses.
“What has gotten into you? We’re just going to a movie.”
