Captains Come First

It had been weeks since Heather had spoken to James. Two to be exact. She'd send him the odd text now and then but that was it. She sat in her livingroom with Brooks playing a game of NHL 14 on her PS3. The story of her and Jason had made it's way around the team a few times. Most of the guys were pretty supportive however others tended to take James side. "He's being an idiot" Brooks said without taking his eyes off of the tv as the two intensely gamed. "What has Sidney said?"

"Sid's fine. We've been hanging out, talking about going away for a night or two after he next roadie" she added. "That's two out of three you've taken Brooks. I'm done" she said putting down her controller. Brooks' wife was away on a girls' trip to Vegas. Brooks had been playing house with Heather for two days now helping her out by doing the dishes and even helping with her laundry. He just wanted some company and not have to go to an empty house alone.

"So any thoughts as to what you'll do for Christmas yet?" He asked getting up off of the floor reclining on the couch.

"No, since it's an Olympic year I can't get extra time off to go see my boy in Italy" she added about her son that Brooks also knew about. "I don't know I might just stay here" she said sitting on the couch as Brooks slid his head into her lap so that she could play with his hair.

"Nobody's invited you?" He asked

"Well, Jason did. Since we will be in Ottawa near then he wants me to come" she said.

"I'll bet he does" said Brooks as Heather gave his head a playful tap. "You're not thinking of going are you?" He asked looking up at her.

"I don't know. Maybe" she said shrugging her shoulders. "Would I be awful if I said yes?" She asked gritting her teeth waiting for his answer.

"Not awful, just wouldn't be the choice I would make." He said. "By the way what is it with you and blue eyes?" He asked her with a laugh. "Me, Neal, Spezza," he laughed.

"You've noticed their eyes?" She asked raising her eyebrow.

"Hey, I'm confident in my sexuality. I know an attractive man when I see one"

"Did you just call James attractive?" She asked with a giggle. His response was to hit her with a pillow from the couch. "I doubt that I'd get an invite from Nealer" she added.

"Did you know he's seeing someone?" Brooks asked sitting up pulling her into his side to cuddle her.

"No. I umm. I haven't. Good for him" she said avoiding saying anything further on the subject.

"You're not curious?" He asked her rubbing her left shoulder massaging lightly.

"Nope" Heather said indignantly.

"I wasn't going to tell you but I know how close you guys were." He said to her

"Brooks it's ok" she said turning to look into his icy blue eyes.

"Don't you think it's a little too much of a coincidence that you two are fighting and suddenly he has a girlfriend?" Brooks asked her while he took the elastic from her hair to play with her long brown hair.

"Stop baiting me Brooks I'm not a fish." She said getting up as he laughed.

"Where are you going?" He asked her.

"Bed" she said as she took her shirt off and threw it at him. She followed by trailing other items of clothing to her bedroom. It wasn't her job to seduce the players. She was there to give in to their seduction. However she knew Brooks sex drive. He'd gladly give in to whatever she suggested. Part of her just wanted him to stop talking about James and his new lady love. Once he got to her room he saw a very naked Heather on the bed. She was leaning up with her elbows behind her. "Took you long enough" she said with a grin while Brooks shut the door behind him. He laughed and started peeling off his long sleeved shirt and grey sleep pants that he'd been in for the majority of the day leaving him naked.

"Just making you work for it baby." He said striking a pose jutting his left hip out with his hands behind his head. It was times like this that Heather enjoyed her job most. Not the sex, that was a huge bonus but when she could just laugh and goof around with the guys. Make them feel at ease. Brooks lowered himself to Heather's bed while Heather wrapped her arms around his neck kissing him hard on the mouth. Their tongues danced together. There was no mistaking, this was about fucking. No romance here. Their mouths broke and Heather's lips and tongue trailed themselves down Brooks' neck to where it met his shoulder. Her lips stayed there sucking and nibbling on his sensitive flesh.

"Mmm baby you could do that all day." He mumbled into her hair. Heather let out a lusty chuckle before biting down on the same spot just a little harder. Brooks reached over to the bed side table picking up his cell phone pretending to make a call. "Yeah Erin, don't rush back from Vegas. I'm good here" he said making Heather laugh before he dropped it back on the table. He put himself up in a push-up position placing a finger between her slick folds. She wasn't the wettest she'd ever been but it was good enough for Brooks to replace his fingers with his cock. He plowed in at full speed pushing hard and fast with every thrust getting stronger. Heather wasn't always up for sex like this but when she was was it ever good. He briefly stopped to take one of her nipples in his mouth. Heather ahhed in satisfaction arching her back further towards his mouth. He switched nipples with his mouth taking a hand to the sensitive bud that he had already been pleasuring. Taking two large hands he pressed her breasts together pleasuring the two nipples at once with his tongue. Licking and nibbling at her nipples he teased her until the magic words came from her mouth.

"Brooks I'm almost there baby." She said eyes closed and back arched.

"On your knees. Roll over" he said pulling out. She did as he asked and he thrusted into her shoving himself just as far up as she could take him. His mouth breathing heavily into her left ear. "Never mind Nealer." He said to her before thrusting in again at full force. "I'll make sure you're looked after and satisfied."

"It's a 1920's poker party" said Sidney as he and Heather laid in his bed together, happy and satiated after a post game romp. "It's a charity thing." He said running his fingers through her hair. "I was thinking that we could go together" he added.

"Is it a Pens thing or a Sid thing?" She asked looking at him as he turned the tv on to Friends.

"It's a Pens thing." He said to her. "Actually a WAGs thing." He said very quietly and quickly.

"A what?" She asked again genuinely not hearing what he had said. Sidney sighed.

"The WAGS are putting it on," he was hoping he could bypass that small fact. "I'll talk to Carolyne. She's running it with Vero. Maybe they'd let you preform."

"Sidney, that's sweet but..." She started as he interrupted her.

"Come on, we haven't seen you perform yet" he said to her. "The guys and patrons would love it" he added. "Nobody has to know who you are. Use a stage name" he added.

"But aren't photographers at these things?" She asked him. "You know that I'm not supposed to be photographed with you guys." She said to him sitting up hugging her knees, away from his embrace looking at the tv.

"Mario cleared it already. He thinks it would be great for you to use your talents". Sidney said sitting up kissing her left shoulder. "He suggested 3 or 4 songs."

"But you know how some of those women feel about me" she said. "They like the idea of me but would prefer I'm not seen or heard." She added.

"It's not until the end of November." He said rubbing her shoulders eliciting a slight moan. "And if you come as my date, nobody will bother you." He added with a smile. "Everybody knows that Captains come first." He said massaging harder.

"Portia Cunningham" she turned and said to him.

"Huh?" He asked her with a raised eyebrow confused.

"My stage name. Portia Cunningham." She said turning her head to look at him with a smile.

"So you'll do it?" He asked her smiling.

"Well I do have my old costumes from productions of Chicago and Cabaret that I've done" she said. "And the backing tracks on my iTunes." She added.

"Perfect." He said with a smile. "I can wait to see you perform." He added.

"I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous." She added. "It's been a while."

"I get that." He said pulling her into the circle of his arms kissing her neck gently. "You know I've never told anyone this, not been the girl I was dating at the time; but," he started with a pause wondering if he was ready to share this. "I had nightmares for weeks before returning from my second concussion." He said to her. "I would dream that I forgot how to skate or that I'd pass out mid game or or...or that I wouldn't be the same player." He added.

Heather smiled at his candour. "But you were fine." She said looking on his eyes. "As good as ever" she said with a laugh realizing what he was doing. He was opening up and pouring his heart to her. "Just like you think I will be." She said with a smile placing a short sweet kiss on his lips.

"Just like I KNOW you will." He added with a finger on her nose.

"You haven't even seen me perform." She said with a laugh.

"Sure I have. Ever google yourself?" He asked her. "You're on YouTube you know."

"Oh God, seriously?" She asked covering her face with a hand.

"Yep. I especially enjoyed that Tits and Ass number." He said laughing referring to her turn in A Chorus Line as Val singing Dance 10 Looks 3.

"You would, Crosby" she said with a smile.
