*AT THE BAR*

I quickly changed in my truck into something a little sexier to go in the bar with Alex. When I stepped out of my truck Alex rolled her eyes at me.

“What?”

“You trying to make someone jealous or do you really wanna get laid that bad?”

“Oh shut up Alex I could get laid without being dressed like this.”

“Yeah by Shea.”

I glared at Alex, she always said that to tick me off. Shea and I had never slept with each other despite what people thought. Shea was and always will be my best friend. We walked into the bar and I saw some of the Duck’s players and some Stars. I tried to make my way through people to look for Shea, then I bumped into someone making them spill their beer.

“Oh sorry!”

“It’s okay it wasn’t mine. It was for a friend.”

I looked up and saw Tyler Seguin looking at me with his big brown eyes that could make anyone melt, even if you knew he was a player.

“I’m Carrie.”

“Tyler.”

“Nice to meet you Tyler, but I got to go find my friend.”

He took my hand and pulled me to him with a swift movement. In the background I could hear One Song Away by Cassadee Pope playing.

“Dance with me.”

“Um.. okay.”

Tyler took me to the dance floor and we slow danced to the song that was playing. I had to admit he was a pretty good dancer. When I wasn’t looking at Tyler I was looking for Shea but I couldn’t see him anywhere. As the song ended I felt Tyler moving in for a kiss, but then Shea cleared his throat and Tyler and I jumped.

“What the hell man.”

“Shea!”

“Sorry man but I got to talk to Carrie real quick.”

Shea pulled me from Tyler who looked very frustrated. I mouthed “I’m sorry” to him and he just nodded and made his way to the bar. Shea sat me down at a table close to the dance floor.

“What the hell Shea. What was that for?”

“The guys a total douche you know that.”

I sighed and nodded my head Shea was right Tyler was known to be a douche but I had this weird feeling when I was dancing with him.

“Hey can you get me a drink?”

“Yeah. I’ll be right back. Don’t leave?”

“I won’t I promise.”

Shea left me by myself and I ran my fingers through my hands as I waited. I sighed from boredness as I waited for him.

“Hey so about that dance earlier….”

I looked up and saw a grinning Tyler Seguin standing by me.

“Yeah? What about it?”

“Well I was thinking it was pretty good so maybe I should buy you a drink.”

“I already have someone buying me one.”

“You mean that tan pretty boy over there?”

Tyler pointed towards Shea at the bar who was talking to one of his teammates.

“At least he scored tonight.”

“That’s not a nice way to treat a stranger.”

“Who said I’m nice?”

I got up to leave the bar for good that night but Tyler grabbed my arm.

“Don’t leave.”

“Why so I can have an ass like you hit on me?”

This made Tyler step back and grin for a moment.

“You can’t think I’m that bad.”

“Oh I don’t think you are I know you are.”

Tyler had a evil smile on his face and something about it was attractive to me, it was like he was putting me on some kind of spell. The next thing I knew Tyler and I were making out and I couldn’t control myself, it was almost like he was playing me like a puppet. Even though I could feel a lot of people looking at us I couldn’t stop. The next thing I knew Shea grabbed Tyler’s shoulder and pulled me and him apart. I was breathless and I can’t say I didn’t like it.

Shea positioned his arm as if he was going to punch Tyler but I grabbed his arm and he just stood there and glared at Tyler, who glared back. I pulled Shea away from Tyler and someone pulled Tyler from Shea and I. I took Shea’s hand in my hand and pulled him outside. On the way out I passed Alex who was making out with Jamie Benn the captain of the Stars. When we got outside I was almost in tears.

“WHAT THE HELL SHEA!?”

I yelled as tears rushed down my face.

“I’m… I’m sorry Carrie… I just can’t watch you make out with an asshole like Tyler Seguin.”

When I looked at Shea he actually had tears rolling down his face. All I could think about was when we were in high school and I was dating this asshole and Shea beat him up for making me cry. I hugged Shea non-verbally telling him it was okay. When I looked up at Shea he placed his hand on my face and leaned down and kissed me. I was completely shocked, he had never ever done this before but I kinda like it. When we separated it was a little awkward.

“Im sorry I didn’t…”

“Shea it okay. I didn’t mind it.”

He smiled and leaned in and kissed me again this time with a little more passion. Next thing I knew things got really heated between us.

“You wanna go to my hotel room?”

I smiled when he said this and I kissed him lightly.

“I’ll drive.”

I pulled him to my truck still kissing him passionately. From the intensity of our kissing I knew this would be a good night, even if it would be a early morning for me.

*ALEX’S P.O.V*

“Hey Jamie I’m going to go to the bathroom real quick I’ll be right back.”

Jamie smiled and nodded his head. I made my way to the bathroom and took at my phone to see that Carrie had texted me.

Hey I’m not going to be in the room tonight I got plans so it’s all yours-Carrie

I rolled my eyes at the text. It had only been a little over a half hour and Carrie was already getting lucky with probably some guy she just met. I was almost to the bathroom when I saw James hanging with some buddies by the bathrooms. Oh shit… did he see me and Jamie making out…

“Hey babe. Whatcha doing here?”

“Oh Carrie dragged me here. I’d love to talk but I really got to go to the bathroom.”

“Alright talk to you later.”

I got in the bathroom and I was freaking out. I mean wouldn’t you? The two guys you’re hooking up with both in the same bar at the same time while you’re there. That’s just a recipe for disaster right there. After about 5 minutes I made my way back out and I couldn’t see James anywhere but I saw Tyler and Jamie talking, which is never a good story. I made my way near them and I heard tyler say “That guy right there Jamie what are you blind? Anyway he was talking to Alex” and then Jamie said “I can take him.” I looked at where they were pointing and saw James dancing with some hoe bag on the dance floor which made my blood boil. He turned towards Jamie, Tyler and I and I heard Jamie say “Nevermind he would kill me.” I made my way over to the dance floor towards James. When I got to him I shot a dirty look at the hoe bag and looked at him.

“I need to talk to you.”

I headed for the exit and when I passed Jamie I gave him a little wink and wave in a way to say “later”. When we got outside I crossed my arms and glared at James.

“Who was that hoe bag?”

“Just some random chick. Its nothing.”

“Yeah it was nothing how she was grinding up on you. That’s my job.”

I got a small smile from James.

“Is that what you want to do to me tonight?”

I rolled my eyes but the truth was that I was to hot and bothered because of Jamie that I really did want to.

“Carrie’s not gonna be in the room tonight com on.”

I got a little smile from James when I said this. And we climbed in his car and headed towards my dorm room that I shared with Carrie. I really couldn’t help but wonder who Carrie had gotten with, cause the only guy I saw her ever make out with was Tyler, but he was still at the bar with Jamie not getting laid.
