Colder than ice
Things that happen away from your home
Once I got off the plane I could feel the butterflies in my stomach going crazy. It had been 2 months since I was on the ice, I wonder how I will do. All the girls invited to the teams training camp all were flying in today, which made me hope I'd meet someone at the airport. As I made my way through the airport my phone rang Chelsea Dagger, which I automatically knew who it was. "Hey babe!" I said excitedly. "Hey! Just want to call you to see if you landed safely." he said and I could tell he was smiling like the derp he is. I giggled, "Yeah that's the ONLY reason you called." I could hear him laugh, which I missed so much. "Hey babe I got to get my rental car. I'll call you when I get to the hotel I'm staying at alright?" I said while heading to the rent-a-car place. "Alright, I love you." he said. "I love you too, Jon." I said grinning from ear to ear. It was almost as i could hear him smile and when I got to the rent-a-car place I quickly told him I had to go and hung up.
After getting the car I drove to the hotel I was going to stay at. Once I got there I parked and went in to check in with my bags. As I was getting checked in a voice came from behind me. "Hey, are you Amy Johnson?" the girl about my age asked. I turned around to face her, "Yeah. Who are you?" She smiled, "I'm Charlotte Campbell, your roommate for training camp." I smiled friendly and got my hotel key card and walked to the room with her.
As we were walking we talked about who our favorite NHL teams were and who our favorite players were. Once we got into our room we picked beds and I placed my hockey bag on the bed and reached in for the practice jersey Jon had given me. I held it in my hands for a few seconds then placed it on the bed. Charlotte looked over at me, "Is that Jonathan Toews' practice jersey?" she asked. I smiled as I looked at it, "Yeah, he gave it to me before I left Chicago. I really miss him." I looked through my bag to make sure I had everything for tomorrow and looked up noticing Charlotte was holding a Penguins practice jersey. "You dating someone on the Pens?" I asked looking at her. She smiled, "Naw, it's my little shit of a cousins." I looked questioningly at her for a bit the asked, "Who's your cousin?" "You wouldn't believe me if I told you..." she said looking at the jersey. "Oh come on just tell me and plus I will. I mean come on I'm dating the Captain of the Blackhawks and you believed me." I said smiling sitting on my bed. She laughed. "Alright. Fine. My cousin is Sidney Crosby." My mouthed dropped as she said that. I was a HUGE Chicago fan, but I did love Crosby. "You're not joking are you?" I asked still shocked. She shook her head laughing a little. I just sat back in shock. "He's one of my favorite NHL players..." I said still shocked. Charlotte laughed at my response. "Well if it makes you feel better Tazers one of my favorites." she said while laughing. We laughed for a while and I was glad that she was my roommate, because once we get on the ice things are going to be easier with someone I can trust to be there when they need to be.
