I Trust you

"Left on the sidelines
Stuck at a red light
Waiting for my time
And I can't see
Why don't you love me?"

*JVR'S POV*

I groaned rolling over pressing the snooze button on my alarm.

I squinted my eyes as it blinked 7:00 am.

I groaned again pulling the covers over my head, I really didn't want to get up.

Then she popped into my head and I couldn't help the smile that was plastered on my face.

I hopped out of bed with a new energy eager to get to practise so I could see her again.

***
When I got on the ice for practice was when I spotted her.

She was on the bench with Orrsy repairing a cut above his right eye.

"What happened to you tough guy?" I chirped skating towards them.
"Shut up." He said throwing his glove at me.

"He and McLaren got into a bit of a shoving match." April explained as I tossed Orrsy his glove back.

"So you got your ass handed to you?"

"Fuck off!" He retorted giving me the finger.

"Hey! Stay still will ya." April ordered turning his face back to her so she could finish cleaning his cut.

"Can't get enough of my beautiful face eh?" He smirked playfully as she rolled her eyes.

"Shut up." She smiled.

"Things got a little...rough." April sighed as she continued cleaning the cut with alchohol. "He got clipped with a high stick."

Just then coach blew his whistle gathering all the players around him.

After April had finished with Orrsy he joined us on the ice and she dissapeared down the tunnel.

*April's POV*

After I had cleared Orrsy and sent him back on the ice I drove to the ACC.

I was in my office finishing up my medical report for the week when there was a knock at the door.

I opened the door to see James leaning against the doorway.

"Hey." He said

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"Ouch, not even a Hi?" He joked as I rolled my eyes.

"Hi. Now why are you here?"

"I needed to ask you something." He said "Could I maybe come in?"

"What if I'm a serial killer?" I said the words leaving my mouth before I had even thought through what I was saying. Luckily James cought the joke and laughed quietly to himself before turning back to me.

"I think I could handle you." He smiled.

He was right, I looked up at his 6'5 frame and noticed for the first that he literally towered over my as I stood at 5'6.

"Touche." I said stepping aside to let him in. "So what'd you want to ask?"

"Well with the night of Blue and White coming up, we're all 'encouraged' to bring a plus one." James started putting quotation marks around encouraged.

"And I was wondering if you wouldn't mind being my plus one?"

"Is this your way of asking me out?" I joked turning away from my papers to look at James.

"No! No, i-it wouldn't be like a date."

"Then what would it be like?" I asked

"Look, If you don't want to go with me I understand."

"No I'll go with you."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah I just wanted to see you sweat." I grinned.

"You jerk."

"I try." I smiled walking James to the door.

"So I'll uh pick you up at seven?"

"You'll pick me up at seven." I confirmed before closing the door behind him.

I took a deep breathe before knocking on the door.

C'mon James don't fuck this up. This is probably your only chance with her, boyfriend or no.

She opened the door a few moments later and she looked really good.

"Woah." I breathed out "You look incredible."

"Thank you." She blushed reaching to grab her handbag.

"Where's Lo-"

"He's at work." She said.

"Does he know about this?"

"No." She said calmly closing the door behind her locking it. "He doesn't need to, where going as friends, nothing more." She said as my heart sunk.

Crap I thought. Friend zoned.

"What's up with the shoes." I said pointing to the converse she was wearing, changing thr topic hoping she couldn't tell how dissapointed I was.

"I don't wear high heels." She shrugged "They hurt."

"So don't most girls just wear them?" I laughed.

"Yeah most girls, not me."

"Fair enough." I said as we made our way down the hall. "What else don't I know about you?"

"You'd be surprised." She grinned as she walked ahead of me towards the elevators.

Damn I thought as I watched how good her ass looked in that dress.

This was going to be a long night.
