Crossing the Line

The girls were all chatting waiting for the guys to leave the locker room except, for Logan and Jackie. “It was so beautiful,” Jackie whispered and Logan nodded, neither girl had moved on from Seth Griffith’s first period goal. “Are they okay?” a masculine voiced asked indicating the team was leaving the locker room. “They’ve looked like that since the first period. I don’t actually think they saw the second or third period,” Katrina answered teasing them. Jackie and Logan just stuck their tongues out and went back to staring at the door waiting for him to emerge. “Hey Logs, you ready to go?” Tuukka asked grinning when he saw her. “Sorry goalie but she’s not waiting for you today,” Jackie said peering around him to see if Seth was coming. “When you score a Bobby Orr goal then I’ll go back to waiting for you,” Logan said. Tuukka groaned and wrapped his arms around Logan. “But I stopped thirty-three shots Logan, do I even get a good game?” he asked leaning against the wall pulling her body back with his. “Good game Tuuks, you played very well,” Logan said smirking at his obvious jealousy. The rest of the girls waiting with them were all fighting back laughter at the put out look on his. “Logan,” Jackie whispered grabbing her arm when she saw Seth Griffith coming. “Don’t let this go to you head Griffith,” Tuukka warned getting a confused look in return. “That was the Bobby Orr goal. It was beautiful. That might be the most beautiful goal I’ve seen in person and I’ve been to my fair share of hockey games,” Logan said looking at him with pure awe on her face. “We’ve been to Blackhawks games, that was more beautiful than anything we’ve seen Kaner or Tazer or even Sharpie bury,” Jackie said not even noticing Dougie walking up behind Seth. “They think he’s some kind of god,” Tuukka explained when he saw the confusion on Dougie’s face. “Um thanks,” Seth said slightly uncomfortable and unsure of who they were. “Oh how rude we didn’t introduce ourselves! I’m Logan Brennett and this is Jackie Kane, we’re best friends,” Logan said sticking her hand out to shake his. “Nice to meet you,” he said recognition sparking in his eyes. “Alright we’re leaving before you start to fawn over any more new guys,” Tuukka declared pulling Logan down the hall towards the door while she protested like a child. “Still want to go out later?” Dougie asked looking down at Jackie. When she nodded he said they should probably get going so she could change before he came back to pick her up.

“Okay I know you have to leave but look at this one,” Logan called from the couch where she sat with Tuukka and Tazer. “Can’t you just make Tuukka watch it?” Jackie asked shrugging on her coat and walking over to Logan. “I already did. More than ten times,” he said. Logan reached her hand back to hit his arm but missed and got the side of his head. “Damn,” Jackie muttered watching the goal beside Bobby Orr’s goal set to music. Tuukka just groaned and rested his hands on Logan’s stomach. “So what are you and Dougie doing tonight?” he asked feeling Logan shift her position between his legs. “We’re meeting up with some of the guys who came up from Providence and I didn’t really ask questions I just wanted to know how to dress,” Jackie said with a shrug. “Don’t drink anything that you can’t see them make, don’t let strangers touch you, call me if you need anything I’ll be there as soon as possible,” Logan said looking her best friend with worry. “Thanks mom,” Jackie said smiling at her and petting Tazer’s head. “They grow up so fast,” Logan commented, Tuukka felt her sigh against his chest. “The night is young, what’s our plan for tonight?” Logan asked leaning over to adjust the sunflowers on the coffee table. Alex had given them to her when they went out for dinner and she absolutely loved them. She had broken them up so that there were some in the living room and some in her room. Logan had to give him credit for being a wonderful gifter, he always gave her random little things that he said he found and made him think of her. “We could go to dinner if you want. There’s that restaurant you like over by my place and then just wander around,” Tuukka suggested torn between wanting to go out and never wanting to move from their position with her back to his chest, their bodies comfortably molded together. “I’ll get changed. And I’ll even look pretty for you, feel special,” Logan said slowly getting up. “You’re always pretty,” Tuukka just loud enough for himself and Tazer to hear.

“Dance with me,” Jackie said holding her hands out to Dougie and smiling. He complied and allowed Jackie to lead him from their table out to the dance floor. Wrapping her arms around his neck and moving her body against his Jackie was thankful she had worn heels. Dougie tried to not groan when she pressed her body close to his. “Every guy in this place wants to be me right now,” he said his lips against her ear. Acting on impulse Jackie turned her head and kissed him. Dougie wasn’t expecting it but kissed her back hungrily. “Now they know I’m here with you,” she winked continuing to dance. Before the song was over Dougie and Jackie had forgotten about dancing and were making out in the middle of the floor. She ran her fingers through his curls twining her hands there. Dougie’s arms were wrapped around her, one hand resting on her ass and other at the back of her head. “I hate to interrupt but you two might want to get a room,” Ryan Spooner said causing them to break apart and notice there were a few people looking at them. “Logan went out, my place,” Jackie said breathlessly. After grabbing their coats Dougie hailed a cab and they resumed their make out in the back of the cab. They were interrupted by the cabbie clearing his throat outside their building. Dougie threw a fifty-dollar bill to the guy and the two hurried inside. Not wanting to be interrupted again the two just stood facing each other in the elevator. Dougie’s large hand caressed Jackie cheek causing her to sigh and close her eyes. “You’re so beautiful,” Dougie murmured breaking the silence. Not knowing how to respond Jackie traced her finger across his lips.

Their tender moment was over when they walked into Jackie’s condo. Dougie pushed her up against the door, his mouth dominating hers, his hands under her ass. Coming up for air Jackie jumped up wrapping her legs around Dougie’s waste to keep her in place. Walking down the hallway towards her room Dougie trailed kisses down her throat to her collarbone hearing her shoes hit the floor when she kicked them off. Dougie set Jackie down at the foot of her bed and spun her around. He slowly unzipped her dress, leaning down to kiss across her shoulders as he pushed the fabric away and let it slide down her body. She turned back around her fingers expertly unbuttoning his shirt while his hands cupped her breasts under her bra. He took his hands off her body just long enough for her to remove his button down and undershirt. Dougie pushed Jackie back onto the bed and took off his pants before climbing on top of her. “So beautiful,” he whispered kissing her. Jackie arched her back making it easier for him to unclasp her bra and threw it on the floor somewhere. In the heat of the moment exploring each others body for the first time neither Jackie nor Dougie remembered to get a condom and neither thought of it until a later after he came inside of her. Jackie rolled over and looked at Dougie before smiling and heading to her adjoining bathroom knowing he was right behind her.

“All right Griffith, you better not pull any of that Bobby Orr bullshit tonight,” Tuukka threatened the second he stepped into the locker room. His teammates laughed and gave him questioning looks while Griffith blushed. “Logan made me watch more videos of that goal that I ever wanted to see and more than once for each video. I’ve seen it set to at least ten different songs and compared to the Bobby Orr goal in just as many ways,” Tuukka said irritation clear in his voice. “Don’t listen to him Seth, he’s just jealous Logan was more impressed with your skills than his,” Milan teased causing the room to erupt with laughter again. “Yeah yeah yeah, you’ll see. I’ll be my normal self out there tonight and then she’ll love me again,” Tuukka muttered sitting down at his stall and beginning his pregame rituals. “Do me a favor Griffith and don’t keep the puck for yourself, help a teammate out,” Dougie called across the locker room laughing. “Why’s that Doug? Trying to impress someone?” Greg teased walking by on his way to his locker. Before Dougie could defend himself and stop himself from blushing Tuukka piped up. “Don’t you gentlemen know he has a thing for Jackie,” Tuukka said. “I wouldn’t call it a thing,” Dougie protested slowly. “You fucked her didn’t you,” Brad guessed. The look on his face gave it all away and soon enough everyone was teasing him. “Alright guys that’s enough, she doesn’t like me as it is and if she finds out I didn’t defend Douglas here I’m dead,” Tuukka said and Dougie shot him a thankful look. Everyone headed Tuukka’s word and went back to their pregame routines preparing to play the St. Louis Blues.

“Just you wait,” Tuukka said to Griffith, Dougie, Milan, and Brad when they were walking out of the locker room last. He stumbled back from the force of Logan launching herself at him only a few steps out of the locker room. “You played so well tonight. You shut out the mother fucking Blues! You shut out Oshie and Tarasanko!” Logan gushed kissing his cheek. Tuukka dropped her down onto her feet and turned to his teammates giving them a deep bow. “Now accepting ‘you were rights’ and applause,” he said standing up from his bow. “He told us that he would be himself and you would go back to loving him more than Griffith,” Looch said to Logan when he saw her confused look. Logan rolled her eyes and smacked his arm. “Well of course I love you more, I hardly even know Seth. What I do know, he scored the most amazing goals I’ve seen and until you can do that he’s my favorite Bruin,” Logan said making everyone laugh at Tuukka’s pout. “Stop teasing the poor guy Logs we all know he’s your favorite,” Katrina laughed from behind her. Logan flipped her off and apologized to Griffith while Tuukka did a victory dance. “I’m not asking,” Claude said when he walked out of the locker room and saw the group’s antics. “It was a great game today Mr. Julien,” Logan said ignoring Brad and Looch mocking her over his shoulder. Claude smiled and thanked Logan before heading for the exit leaving the group alone. “Mr. Julien,” Dougie teased his voice going up a few octaves to try to match hers. “Shut up Hamilton, I have the power of veto,” Logan warned referring to Jackie who was at work. He raised his hands in surrender and all the guys started to rip on him as Logan and Tuukka left. “I knew you liked me more,” he whispered to Logan, needing to get in the last word.
