One Shots

“Beau?” Keirstyn called out as she walked through the door, she spotted him lying on the couch watching the Penguins game that was on.
She made her way over to the couch and kissed his cheek before stripping off her jacket and hanging it on the edge of the couch; she made herself comfortable beside him. She watched him from the corner of her eye as they watched the game in silence, she knew how bad he wanted to be there but due to his injury a few months ago he wasn’t able to be.
“You’ll be back soon.” She squeezed his knee trying to comfort him; she hated seeing him like this.
“What if I can’t play as good as I used to, what if they don’t want me anymore?” He asked, Beau was letting his imagination run wild, he thought of the endless possibilities of what would happen when he returns to the team.
“That won’t happen! You’re already skating again and soon you’ll be practicing with the team.” Keirstyn reassured, she grabbed a hold of his hand letting him know that she was there for him.
“Hockey’s my dream, I don’t know what I’d do if it was all over.” Beau admitted, he was constantly worried about his skill level, he didn’t want to be put back on the team and play horribly due to his injury, he needed to be even better than he was before.
“You’d find a new dream,” she joked, “You know I believe in you a 100 percent, and I’ll always be there to support you and your dreams.”
“You’re my new dream.” Beau mumbled, he leaned over and kissed her lips.
The only good thing to come out of his injury was he met Keirstyn in the process, Keirstyn was a physiotherapist in training, and was working with Beau’s original pt which was how they met. Beau had worked his charm and within a few days he had her number, he didn’t expect to fall for her the way he did.
“And you’re mine.” She smiled.
Keirstyn’s dream was to be a physiotherapist but after meeting Beau everything changed, she had put her dream on hold to be with him. She followed him to Pittsburgh and was there to support him through every practice he had, she loved Beau more than anyone.
“I love you Keirstyn.” He kissed her lips again, never getting tired of the feeling of her lips against his own.
“And I love you Beau Bennett.”
If Beau could go back and stop himself from getting hurt he wouldn’t, he wouldn’t change anything that happened because in the process of having one dream put on hold, he found another. She was his new dream and he wouldn’t change it for the world.
