Captains Come First

After spending a rapturous night with James, Heather woke up feeling like she was ready for a decision. It was like some sort of cosmic connection her and James. They anticipated each other's needs, wants, desires in bed. She even had a dream that James told her he loved her. Was it a dream? It felt real but somehow she knew it was a dream. After stretching and shaking out the muscle kinks Heather managed to crawl out of bed. James was at the sink styling his hair getting the perfect coif for the flight to Edmonton. "Oh thank God!" Heather said wrapping her arms around his waist. "I thought you were shaving the ginger beard for a moment!" She said rubbing her hands on his smiling face.

"Nope, not until my point streak is done." He smiled back wrapping his arms around her. He looked into her eyes and gave her a good morning kiss on the mouth, no tongue but still very sweet just the same. "You should get dressed babe, breakfast starts in ten minutes." He said to her as she turned to walk back into the bedroom seductively.

"Umm James..." She said searching the room. "Where are my clothes? The hotel said they'd deliver the bag to your suite last night." She said confused. Just as she was about to call front desk, she saw a text on her phone Light up with a picture of her red suitcase. 'We've got your bag' it said 'time to do the walk of shame <3 Flower & Tanger' "Those bitches." Heather said grabbing her clothes from the previous night. "Flower and Tanger stole my bag." Heather said to James who in turn laughed at her misfortune.

"I'm sorry Babydoll, I should've told you. They were planning on doing something to welcome you back." James said to her. "I didn't know this was it I swear!" He said holding his hands up in innocence. The two finished readying themselves and headed down to the meeting room where their breakfast was laid out. Immediately upon her arrival, Tanger and Flower stood up and started a standing ovation for her. Heather gave her best pageant wave and walked to her seat. As she walked Flower, Tanger and a few of the other boys chanted

"The girl was fair who went upstairs with her favorite jock She knocked around and came back down, and now she takes the walk! The walk of shame she's not to blame. Who could resist his cock? The walk of shame she found her fame, and now she takes the walk!" She recognized their version of the chant from the movie Sorority Boys.

"It's good to be back boys." She said as she sat down at the table. James sat to her right and Tanger sat on her left.

"Mama, you have no idea how much we missed you." Kris said giving her a quick peck on the lips. "Nealer was ready to hang himself over Candy being around." He laughed placing a hand on the back of her chair.

"I'm going to go grab some food so I don't have to listen to you guys damage my ego any further." James said getting up from the table. "Breakfast Babydoll?" He asked. Heather opened her mouth to answer when Sid slipped a plate down beside her.

"Grapefruit half, no sugar side of Greek yogurt. Your favourite." He said giving her a kiss on the cheek. "Won't be necessary." He said to James.

"Thank you Sid, and you as well James. For the thought." She smiled unfolding her napkin in her lap. Both men coldly walked away from eachother.

"Great." Kris said between bites of his eggs. "This is going to turn into a pissing contest." He rolled his eyes. "It's like being at the prom queen's table in high school."

"Not if I don't let it get that far." Heather said smiling at Kris. "Sid invited me to Sochi." She said taking a bite of her grapefruit.

"Kid is serious." He nodded. "That's huge for him. You know how superstitious he is and all." He added.

"Well that could just be it. He's so used to having me around that be has to have me there." Heather said sipping her coffee.

+ "Nah." Kris said taking a sip of juice. "He's superstitious but he's private too. He knows whoever he brings will be on display. You'll likely be sitting with his family, be seen with him on off days. It's not like Vancouver where he could just say it was a friend in the area." Kris said looking serious. This was sinking in. This was serious to Sid.

"What if...what if this is his way of winning?" She said to Kris.

"That, I don't know. Just protect your heart. It's important." Kris said as he saw James heading back to the table. "Just don't forget me d'accord?"

"Oui, d'accord." Heather smiled. "so what's this I hear about you and Catherine setting a date?" "It's true." He said with a sigh.

"It's not for another year and a half, but things have been going well. I decided it was time." He said. "But don't worry, you'll always be my Mama." He said to her with a killer smile.

"Well I'm happy for you all Papa" She said smiling. "I'm going to see Avery and Andy before Sochi." Heather said playing with the yogurt on her plate. "Andy said his wife will be away for the week in Canada visiting home." Heather said. James tried to pretend he wasn't listening to her pretending to be listening to one of Flower's lame jokes.

"Ooo. How convenient." Kris said laughing. "Just be careful and don't fall in love. You seem to have a penchant for married men." Heather had just opened her mouth to answer when Sid's hand was on her shoulder.

"Need to change? We leave in a half hour." He said to her with a smile. "You can use my room. I haven't checked out yet." He said taking her hand leading her out of the room.

"Hey Cappy, no glove no love buddy." Flower shouted as James annoyed threw a grape at his head. Sid took her up to his room quickly closing the door behind them. Heather was reaching for her zipper when she felt his hands cover hers as he peppered light kisses down her neck and back as he pulled the zipper down for her.

"Sid, I'm supposed to be changing." She giggled as he started to remove the tight dress. "You said we have 30 minutes to get out of here." She said smiling. His hands removed her undergarments from behind caressing her breasts and flicking her nipples.

"Right." He said between kisses. "So we have 15 minutes to make love and about 10 for you to change after that." He said with a low chuckle. Heather turned around in his arms. She could see the desire in his eyes. She kissed him hard on the mouth and reached for his belt buckle as he backed them on to the bed. He stopped kissing her for a moment and looked her in the eyes. "What is it Sid?" Heather asked unsure of what was going on behind those hazel eyes of mystery. He looked intense but like he needed to tell her something at the same time.

"It's just...you just look so beautiful." He said his thumb brushing over her cheek down to her lips. She accepted his thumb licking and sucking at it delicately.

"You're not so bad yourself Captain." She said releasing his thumb and smiling. "I hate to break the moment Sid but are we going to do this?" She asked looking down at their lower bodies that were still unconnected.

"Yeah." He said with a half smile as he slid into her. He thrusted in a couple of times before pulling out and getting up. "I can't." He said to her getting off of her and sitting beside her. "We...i...we should talk." Sidney said looking at the ground

. "Ok." Heather got up and grabbed some clothes from her suitcase. "So talk." She said slightly confused.

"There's this girl. We went out while you were suspended." He said sliding a hand through his hair.

"Sid, it's ok to like a girl. We're not mutually exclusive. Just as long as you're not hitting randoms everywh..." He interrupted her sentence with one of his own.

"No it's not that." He said looking at her. "It was set up by my agent. My people think it's time I showed...that I'm looking to settle down."

"And this all happened while I was suspended?" She asked.

"No, not exactly." He said to her. "They told me last summer. I told them about you and up until today they didn't think it was a good idea. They heard the whole controversy about you being seen with Spezz and James. They don't think it would be appropriate for me to bring you to Sochi." He said to her.

"Oh." Heather said looking at her hands. "Is this why...is this why you said that you loved me?" Heather asked looking at him as she swallowed feeling a huge lump in her throat.

"No." He answered immediately. "When I came to see you it was the night of the planned date. I figured if you said yes to me I could have this whole business over with. Heather you are my soulmate." He said looking at her. "Someone like you comes around once in a million years. And this is coming from a practical person." He said to her.

"Sid, so is this your way of letting me down for not coming to Sochi?" Heather asked.

"No." He said to her shaking his head. "I want you there. It's time I made my own decisions." He said to her. Heather threw on a rose pink wrap dress with black and shearling wedge Uggs. Putting her glasses on her face she picked up her burgundy dress coat and Burberry scarf as Sid slipped his clothes back on.

"Sid, if you want me there I'm there." She said smiling. They grabbed their suitcases and headed out. The fact that he couldn't do anything with her until he got that out of his system showed Heather that he really did care.

"I do." He said to her smiling as they got into the elevator. "I just wanted to be honest with you about Vanessa." He said to her.

"Vanessa?" She asked nodding her head. "So she does have a name."

"If I saw her again...to appease my agents...is that ok?" He asked her nervously as the doors opened to the lobby.

"Sid, I'm not your mother. I'm not your girlfriend. I'm simply your hired lover slash whatever you need me for." She smiled. "Just be careful with your heart Sid." She said kissing him on the cheek as she gave her suitcase to the bus driver. She leaned in to his ear and whispered to him "because I love you too." She smiled and walked to the back of the bus. Always leave them wanting more.
