My Sister, Your Girl

“Hey girls!”
“Hi Camellia! We miss you.” My two best friends pout.
I had been best friends with Hanna and Megan since I was in high school and it was probably the hardest thing about leaving Maine.
“So how is living with your bro?” Emma asked.
I had messaged them both in a group chat telling them all about it, they were so happy for me and promised to Skype me.
“Its so good.”
“And how is living with a bunch of hot hockey players?” Megan laughs.
“Oh shutup Megs. They are my brothers best friends!”
“That doesn’t change the fact they are extremely attractive.” Hanna laughs.
“I bet Crosby is even hotter in person.” Megan laughs.
“Those shoulders are so muscly,” She continues, “Those legs!” Hanna says.
“His a hunk.” Hanna says,
“Alright, alright girls. Calm it down.” I laugh. “You will have to come see yourself. When are you two gonna come visit me anyway?”
The both slyly look at each other smiling but then the smile quickly disappears.
“Um, I don’t know Cami, we are both busy looking for a college.”
“Its fine.” I say
“We will come soon enough.” Hanna says.
“Yeah, I know. Ill talk to you guys later tonight, James and I are going out for lunch.”
“Have fun, we love you and miss you.” Megan says.
“Love you guys too.” I say blowing them a kiss.

JAMES POV

Camellia is skyping her friends Hanna and Megan. They both have ringed me telling me about how they are going to be coming to Pittsburgh. They both got accepted into Pittsburgh University and are going to be staying in an apartment right near us. I know Cami will be so excited to have her best friends here.
I am going out with her for lunch before going to practice. I had to promise the two girls that I wouldn’t say anything at all to Camellia.
“CAMELLIA! Lets go!” I bellow from the foot of the stairs.
“Coming!” She yells back.
I hear her walking down the stairs and grab my keys.
“You ready?” She asks.
“Yeah, you’re the female here who takes forever to get ready.” I laugh.
“Shut up James.” She laughs.
“Lets get going then.” I say grabbing her hand.
“Bye Sidney!” She waves to him. He turns around sitting on the couch.
“Bye Camellia. James don’t be too long we have practice.”
“Yes mom. You can pick Marc up ill drive there myself.” I say.
“Yeah cool, see you this afternoon, have fun.” He smiles.
We walk into the garage, “What car we taking?” Cami asks.
“I kinda want you to take me for a spin in the Maserati, you’re an awesome driver.” I say.
She laughs, “Oh stop, your making me blush.” She grabs the keys for the car out of her bag and opens the car. She gets into the drivers seat and starts it up.
“Lets see what you can do with this black beauty.” I say referring to the car.
“Oh Neal, you have no idea what she can do.” She laughs before hitting the pedal with her foot. The engine roars and she is off into the driveway. She makes a sharp turn and speeds out.
“Damn. You really are a Neal.” I laugh.
“I never had an doubt anyway.”
“That’s good.” She giggles.
She gets onto the streets and places one hand on the wheel and one hand on her lap. If it was anyone else driving a Maserati one handed I would be concerned, but Camellia knows how to drive, and drive well.
“So where are we going?” She asks.
“Ill tell you where to go, its cool.” I answer. She nods and continues to drive to the instructions I give her.
We end up arriving at the small Italian restaurant I love to go to, that makes amazing food.
“This is cute.” She says walking in and observing the warm and cozy scenery. The waitress comes and gives us a table at the back of the restaurant away from any large crowds.
“They have good food, trust me.” I say.
“I trust your judgment.” She laughs.
We sit in our seats before the waitress comes and we order drinks and scan our menus.
“So, whens the next game?” She asks.
I think to this weekend when we have a game against Toronto.
“This weekend. You are gonna come right?”
“I really have no other plans, so yeah sure.” She replies.
“You can sit with Vero.”
“I really do like Vero, shes so much fun.” She says referring back to the time she spent with her during practice a couple of days ago.
“Yeah, Vero and Marc are a great couple.”
“They really are in love.” She laughs.
“Have you ever been, yanno, inlove.”
“Mmmm,” She sighs taking a sip of the lemonade she ordered.
“Love is overrated. There have been some guys, the most recent one turned out to be a little to obsessed with me, but that was about a year ago now, and yeah, haven’t found someone since.” She finishes.
“And you?” She asks.
“Meh, puck sluts. A lot of puck sluts.”
“Oh, ive heard about them. Are they really that bad?”
“Bad isn’t the word, they are hungry hungry women. They chase us all the time. I will admit I have had my way with some of them.” I laugh drinking some of my drink.
She shakes her head, “But no one special yet?”
“Nop, no one.”
“You will find someone big bro.” She laughs.
“So will you little sis.”
“What about the other boys, Geno, Kris and Sidney? Do they do the same thing with the whole puck slut situation?” She asks.
“I guess Geno has a couple Russian babes, no one special either, Kris is probably the same as me, Sidney, well his Sid, his to busy to have puck sluts, but he did have a girl a month or two ago, broke his heart that one, but im really the worse out of us all.” I say.
“Sidney is busy a lot hey?” She asks.
“Yeah he is a busy man, that’s what you get when your as good as him.” I laugh and she does the same.
“What about the girl, what did she do to him?” She says.
“You know, the usual, wanted him for his money, said his schedule was to much for her to handle, did it all for attention and she got the attention she wanted too. She got the title of ‘I slept with Sidney Crosby’ and dumped him and left.”
“He hasn’t heard from her since?” She asks.
“Nop.” I reply.
“That sucks.”
“It does. His alright though.”
“That’s good.” She says.
“So, you missing Maine yet?” I ask her.
“I miss my friends, I guess I miss my family too, but they knew ever since I found out I was adopted that all I ever wanted to do was find my siblings. Not necessarily my parents, just my brothers or sisters. I found you so that’s all I really care about. I can live without Maine.”
“Im glad you found me too Camellia, I really am.” I smile.
“I skyped my bestfriend Megs and Hanna today, so that was nice, I miss them a lot though.”
Little did she know that she wouldn’t have to miss them much any longer, they were coming to Pittsburgh in just less then 2 weeks.
“That would have been good, im sure they will come to visit soon.”
“Oh yeah, I have no doubt they will visit, honestly.” She smiles.
We ordered out lunch and finished eating. I had to head to Consol for practice and Vero was coming to pick Cami up. She honestly begged Marc since she loved Camellia so much. Cam was fine with it and she said how much she liked Vero too.
“Hey girl!” Vero says giving Camellia a hug after she pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant.
“Hey Neal.” She also says to me.
“Ill meet you back at home okay?” I say to Camellia giving her a hug. “Thanks for lunch.” She says. “No problem.” I reply.
I get into the Maserati and the two girls get into Vero’s SUV.
“Watch my car!” She says from the window laughing.
“Im not a speed demon like you!” I laugh back.
With that I pull out of the parking and go to practice.

CAMELLIAS POV

“So, how have you been Vero?” I ask the women next to me.
“Brilliant! I made Marc-Andre promise me that I will be able to see you again!” She says.
“Perfect opportunity then! Are you going to practice today?” I ask.
“Oh no, not today. That stuff kinda gets boring after a while. I am assuming you will be watching the game on the weekend! First time watching your brother, I bet that’s going to be fun.” She says.
“Yeah, im excited! Can I sit with you, I don’t know I just don’t want to be by myself and I need someone to explain things to me.”
She throws her hands in the air as we reach the traffic lights. “Of course!”
We make small talk for the rest of the way and Vero tells me the cute story of how her and Marc met. I also tell her where I grew up and why I never knew James was my brother.
“That’s so sad. Im so sorry Camellia! It must have been awful finding out you had a family you didn’t know about.”
Oh, its fine now! I have my brother with me and that’s all that matters.”
She laughs, “That’s the main thing right.”
“You know, Marc tells me that all the boys are crushing on the new sister!” She continues placing a hand on my leg.
“Im sure they do, they are professionals, and they can get whoever they want!” I laugh.
“Honey they all want you!”
“I wouldn’t date my brothers teammates anyway.” I sigh, “It would be weird for James.”
“We will see about that Cami. One of them is bound to win you over, and im placing my bet on who it is.” She says.
“And who is your bet?” I ask.
“Wait and see and you are sure to find out!” She giggles.
We arrive at the Fleury household and im defiantly not surprised at how big and grand the house is. There is a long driveway that leads to the entrance of the garage. The house is colors of light greys and creams. The two-story monster didn’t seem to end within the clouds, and the sun and blue sky could be seen in the glassy reflection of the windows. The gardens are done neatly and lawn is freshly mowed. All around the boundary of the house are garden and plants neatly trimmed. She parks the car and unlocks the massive two doors. The inside is just as spectacular. The tall ceilings seem to go on forever and the light grey paint just extends them. The hall way is long with a massive mirror and table beneath it. She drops her keys there and continues to walk moving her hand in a motion for me to follow.
The kitchen is huge, with a large dark marble bench top in the centre. The cupboards are white and sink is just at the base of a massive window looking out into the yard. On the other side of the kitchen is a massive set of lounges with a tv taking up majority of the wall. A dining room is on the other side of the kitchen and lounge room is a huge 15-seat dining table made of dark mahogany wood. Opposite the kitchen is a large set of swirling staircases, which go to the next level of the house. Behind the staircase is 4 large French doors which pull out onto a marvelous, large deck. She explains to me what everything is on our little tour and I gaze in admiration. She takes me upstairs to all the equally as large rooms then the massive master bedroom. I didn’t think this house could get any bigger until I also Marcs game room. It was huge and the definition of man cave. Team photos, photos with the Stanley cup, old framed jerseys and pucks plastered the walls. We decided to go back down stairs and watch a movie together.
“I have to say Vero, your house is extremely spectacular. I love it, its beautiful.”
“Aw thank you! It took ages to build, but we love it.” She replies.
“You and Marc are perfect, how do you manage it, yanno when he goes away?” I ask.
“Oh, im very used to it now, ive been living with him going away since I was 15! It becomes a natural habit for him to leave constantly. You will get used to it with James, trust me.”
“Yeah, I know.”
We end up watching a chick flick, because honestly what girl doesn’t love a good chick flick, gossip session and a fresh coat of nail polish?!
