Five Minutes For Fighting (Completed)

Carl Hagelin sat there on his bed while Caroline shuffled around trying to put things in boxes to transport upstairs. "Why are you doing this to me?" He said whining. "Because C, I am engaged and now you can have Erica here all the time." Caroline couldn't stop looking at her ring finger on her left hand the Cartier diamond ring shimmered every time. "So please Care! Move in with him next season!" She contemplated it, but she wanted to spend every waking hour with Michael. "I second that I want Michael to myself." John Tavares said walking in sitting on her bed. John was living with Collin McDonald and when Collin moved out, John couldn't afford the upkeep of his long island house so now he was commuting everyday to Long Island from the City making their lives living nightmares. "Fine, you know what fine! I can't handle you children. I am literally younger then you guys by years and I am more mature then you people. Fine I won't move into Michael's room and John won't move into here. Happy?" She said steaming as the two of them grinned nodding. "Fine." She said walking out of the room as Mats Zuccarello and Brian Boyle stood there in their doorway across the hall snooping.

"Seriously?" She said as the two of them slammed their door by accident. "Stop stalking people's conversations you two." She said walking into the living room/kitchen area. "I think it's a good idea that your not moving upstairs." Mac Truck said as she walked by him. "You heard?" She said grabbing a Smart Water and opening the top so she could throw some lemon into it. "Well your voice is very loud and yeah, I mean even when me and Kaylee get married this summer we are still going to live here next year, because it's fun." Yeah maybe for them it's fun. Playing Xbox till all hours, having water balloon fights on the terrace in the winter, giggling and having fun. It was a serious bachelor pad even though everyone except Mats had girlfriends. "It's so much fun." She said in a sarcastic tone as she threw her lemon slice into the water and put the top back on.

She walked up the metal stairs to Michael and John's room, knocking before coming in. "This place is a mess." She said as she picked up the strewn boxes. "Yeah Johnny still hasn't really moved in yet." Michael said from the bathroom. "I heard the commotion downstairs, I guess we aren't having sexy time every night?" She laughed. They rarely had sexy time. He was kidding himself. In a house full of like 10 teammates, plus 1 Islander and everyones girlfriends how could you have alone time? "Yeah that's not happening." She walked into the bathroom sitting on the His and Hers Vanity/Sinks her parents put into everyone room. Michael went to kiss her as she backed away. "Haha shave first you sieve." He looked so hot in nothing but a towel. The scar on his left side exposed.

She liked that no other girl saw it like she saw it. They only saw it if they were out at a Pool Party or at the Beach but she saw it in these raw coupley moments the two of them have. "Does it hurt?" She said touching the stitched up skin. "Not really only if I get checked in that area really hard or I slam into the boards like last time." She cringed. She was terrified when it happened. When Malkin's skate sliced opened Michael's side. She remembered his face, the way the pain washed over it. She hated thinking about it the accident. "Well it's pretty nasty." She said kissing it. "Yeah when Rammer stitched it up a couple games ago when I got that guys's stick jabbed into my side while we were in a traffic jam in the corner it hurt slightly." She forgot that only a month ago he had to have a couple stitches in. She touched the rougher part. "I love your scar too." He said turning to face her as he kissed the scar above her eyebrow. When you have three brothers something was bound to happen so when her brother Tucker wasn't looking and swung a Metal baseball bat into her at three years old no one was surprised. It took a plastic surgeon and 25 stitches but now it was just a white line. "My little Harry Potter." He said kissing it again. "Haha you know what they saw Bros dig scars." They both laughed.

"I can't wait to marry you." He said kissing her sweetly. She couldn't imagine loving another human being like she loved Michael. The night he proposed they stayed up to all ours in each others arms recounting every milestone in their relationship. She had so much history with him, that no one else could come between them. He was their when she was bleeding on the ground at three years old. She was there for him when at 19 he required 50 stitches and then asked like a dumbass if he could go back on the ice. She loved him immensely, he was her first love, and she was his first great love. "I can't wait to have little Michael and Caroline children running around Minnesota and Thunder Bay." She said as he laughed. "Will they have Canadian, Minnesota accents mixed in with a little american?" He said laughing hysterically. "M--i--neesooo-tt-aa." She said dying of laughter. "They will be cultured that's sure." She laughed nobody had their upbringing. Their kids would be lucky to have him as a dad. "Our wedding is probably going to be the biggest wedding in Hockey since Gretzky's." He said she nodding. An NHL player marrying another NHL player. All 30 teams would be there. Plus AHL teams. Plus their family and friends. She didn't even want to think about the prep she had to do for it. "I can't wait to be CDZ." She said laughing. It had a nice ring to it. "Yup and I can't wait to be Mr. Thomas." She laughed.

She stared at the clean shaven 22 year old who looked into her eyes. "I can't believe you actually did it I so wasn't expecting it." She said wrapping her legs around his waist. "I told you I was going to marry you, and I was going to propose to you when you least expect it." She remembered as she kissed him. Caroline Del Zotto. The Del Zotto's. Mr and Mrs Del Zotto. Oh god did she love this boy.
