The Ice Queen

Chapter Two

It felt so good to show Sidney up and beat him to the net, scoring that last goal in overtime. He was so angry, and I made sure to rub it in his face as I skated away towards my teammates so we could do our victory hug. Everyone patted my helmet and then we skated over towards Vokoun and then patted his helmet. The Penguin fans were sulking out of the arena, and the Penguins had already disappeared from the ice.

Saturday, October 15th, Capitals had a home game against the Senators. They were a tough team, but we managed to pull through and beat them with the final score being two to one.

We didn't have another game until Tuesday, and even though I've been in DC since July, I've never seen the city. When the guys heard this, they demanded that they would be allowed to show me the city, well, at that point the night life of the city. I ended up going home, telling the guys that I would meet them at the address that they had given me in about two hours. I changed into a tight dress, put some heels on, did my makeup, fixed my hair, made myself actually look like a girl, and then off I went.

However, I was pleasantly surprised to find some of my teammates walking out of a hummer limo in front of my house. I blinked a few times surprised and Mike Green smirked and walked over towards me, "Gotta have you riding in style for your first time in the city."

"I feel like I'm going to the prom," I laughed and he chuckled.

"I forgot the flower thing," he said and I giggled.

"Flower thing?" I asked as I got into the limo and sat next to Alex and his girlfriend.

"Yeah, whatever that thing is called," he shrugged his shoulders.

"You're damn lucky I forgot what it's called too," I said and he smirked and placed his arm on top of the seat, behind my head.

"You two going at it again?" Alex Semin asked with a chuckle, "What is it now?"

"Nothing," we said at the same time and then I playfully nudged my elbow into his ribs and he groaned.

"Where are we going anyways?" I asked as we drove through DC.

"Club," the guys said plainly and I snorted.

"There, 'Lyssa," Mike said as he pointed towards the club that was in front of us.

"Should be fun," I smirked and one by one we walked out of the limo and towards the club, going right through the front door and making our presence known, "Definitely going to need a drink."

"Same," Marcus Johansson said as he smirked and walked over towards the bar.

"He just turned twenty one," Mike said as he came up behind me and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

"Fun, remember that feeling," I smirked and then looked around, '...Spending it alone...'

"How old are you anyways?" he asked and I looked at him like he was crazy.

"Don't you know never to ask a girl that?" I teased and he laughed and shrugged his shoulders, "I'm old enough to drink, just know that!"

"Didn't you say you were three years younger than me?" he asked and then smirked when I rolled my eyes, "You're twenty three!"

"Ding, ding, ding, give the old man a prize," I snorted and he laughed as he led me over towards the bar, arm still wrapped around my shoulder, "You know, I've been to a club before, you don't need to babysit me."

"Eh, it's more for me than you," he said as he ordered two beers.

"How do you know that I drink beer?"

"I took a guess," he smirked and then handed me a coors lite.

"Lucky guess," I smirked and then took a swig of the beer and looked around.

"You wanna dance?" he asked with a smirk on his face.

"I don't dance," I said plainly and he laughed, "Go find your bunnies."

"How can you not dance?! All pretty girls can dance!" he said and smirked. I looked at him when he called me 'pretty' and then rolled my eyes, "Oh come on, red."

"Red? Really? Real original," I laughed and he shrugged his shoulders and took some of my red locks in his fingers and smirked.

"Red," he said and I shook my head and took a swig of my beer.

"Your bunnies are waiting for you," I said as I nudged my head towards the group of girls that were being non subtle about watching us.

"Eh, not in the mood for them tonight," he said as he came closer towards me and I felt his lips on my ear.

"So you think flirting with me is going to get you anywhere?" I smirked and he laughed and took my hand, "Hey! Come on, I don't dance!"

"Too bad!" he said as he finished off his beer and gave the empty bottle to someone as he pulled me onto the dance floor, "You gotta dance!"

I laughed and then gasped when he slammed my back into his chest and I felt his hips move back and forth against mine. I could feel the heat rising to my face when his hands were on my hips and his warm breath on my neck. I tried to regain myself and then turned my head a little to smirk towards him, "I see you like to be in control."

"I'm always in control," he breathed against my neck and it sent shivers down my spine, "I see you're not."

"I'm perfectly in control," I smirked.

-Mike-

"So what's the deal with you and 'Lyssa, you two are always going at it," Nick Backstrom said and I smirked as I took a swig of my beer.

"It's nothing, just teasing each other," I said and he snorted.

"Yeah right, you're completely ignoring your bunnies to dance with her," he said and I rolled my eyes, "Who's that?"

"Who?" I asked as I looked at him.

"The girl talking to 'Lyssa," he said, pointing his finger in the direction that I should look in.

I followed his arm to see a girl shorter than Alyssa standing in front of her, laughing. I watched, staring closely, not recognizing the girl, "Maybe relative," I shrugged, "They both got that red hair."

"Gentlemen!" I heard and then felt a hand slam into my shoulder, "Why aren't we partying?"

"Who's that Ovi?" Nick asked and then nudged his head towards Alyssa's direction.

"Uh, with AJ?" Alex said and we nodded our heads, "I think her name was- Uh, shit- Becca! Rebecca! AJ's sister!"

"I didn't know she had a sister," I said and Nick shrugged his shoulders, obviously not knowing either.

"Younger I think," Alex said, "If you were at her house for the press conference thing, then you would have known that."

"Eh, I was busy," I smirked and he snorted.

"What was her name?"

"I can't remember," I said and the guys laughed and shook their heads.

-Alyssa-

"Oh god, my feet are killing me," I laughed as Rebecca and I walked into the house and tore our shoes from our feet.

"That was so much fun," Rebecca laughed and I nodded my head, "Thanks for having me come out."

"It's no problem, I was hoping that you would have some fun," I smirked and she nodded her head.

"You have a missed Skype call," Rebecca said and I looked over towards her to see that she was by the computer.

"Marshy?" I asked and she nodded her head, "Aw, I forgot that I had a call in with him tonight."

"Call him back, no doubt he's still up," she laughed as she looked at her watch.

"All right," I said and then walked over towards the chair and hit the redial on the video chat.

"And here I thought that you- Whoa, what are you wearing?!" Brad smiled brightly as he saw me appear on the screen in my strapless black dress.

"Nice to see you too, Marshy," I laughed, "Nice win against the Blackhawks," I smirked and he held up his hands and shrugged his shoulders smiling brightly.

"Thank you, I did all of the work," he said and then I saw a pillow being thrown at his head, "YO! Looch you ass!"

"Looch? Milan's there?" I smiled brightly and Brad chuckled and nodded his head.

"Yeah, your boyfriend's here," he said and I blushed when he moved the laptop to the side to see some of the guys sitting on the hotel bed.

"AJ!" Milan waved and I laughed and waved back, "You kept poor Marshy waiting, he got worried when you didn't answer."

"I was out, the guys took me into the city," I laughed, "It was interesting."

"DC's pretty cool, not as many cute girls though," Brad said and I rolled my eyes.

"I'm surprised you guys didn't go out to celebrate your win," I said, "You are still in Chicago, right?"

"Yeah, but Coach told everyone to stay in the hotel," Brad said and I rolled my eyes.

"And you actually listened?"

"Don't wanna be scratched," Nathan said and I nodded my head, "Heard you got the winning goal against Crosby?!"

"Yes sir!" I laughed.

"How'd that feel?" Brad asked.

"Pretty damn good to see that pissed off look on his face," I laughed and they chuckled, "When do we play you?"

"Not till January," Milan answered and I whined, "Why? You can't wait to lose?"

I snorted and waved him off, "I think you'll be the ones losing!" I smirked and they scoffed and shook their heads.

"Yo, who's this bunny?!" I heard and Brad looked away from the laptop. I laughed when the guys were yelling at him and throwing stuff at him, "Ow! All right, sorry!" he yelled and then I saw his face appear on the screen.

"Holy zoom in," I laughed because he got really close to the camera.

"Back up, dumbass! She doesn't want a zoom in of your eye!" Brad yelled and pulled the kid back, "AJ, this is the rookie, Tyler Seguin."

"No way! This is AJ?! Here I thought you guys were talking about a dude! She's hot!" he yelled and I laughed and rolled my eyes.

"Hey now! That's my girl you're talking about!" Milan yelled and I smirked and leaned my head against my arm

"Wait- What?!" he said as his head snapped around.

"Alyssa Jane Marie Lucic," I said out loud with a smirk on my face, "I like the sound of that."

"Oh yeah!" I laughed when I heard Milan yell.

"AJ, what are you doing for Christmas?" Brad asked and I was a little surprised.

"Dude, it's October, how the hell am I suppose to know?!" I laughed.

"Come to Boston! Most of us aren't going anywhere!" he said and I laughed a little.

"All right, hold on, let me check my schedule," I said as I got up from the chair and walked over towards the kitchen where the schedule hung. I yawned as I walked over towards the chair and plopped back down and turned the paper to December, "So I have an away game against the Devils on the 23rd and then an away game against the Sabres on the 26th."

"So come up!" Brad smiled brightly and then I saw a whole bunch of faces appear on the screen

"Please!" the guys all said and I laughed and roll my eyes.

"Ok, all right, fine!" I laughed when they kept begging.

"Yes!" they yelled and then high fived each other.

"Bunch of whiney ass hockey players," I muttered loud enough for them to hear and then smirked.

I looked at the screen and saw the guys staring at something, Brad sighed and then looked at the screen, "Sorry AJ, gotta go, Captain's orders."

"All right," I smiled and then waved to everyone, "Bye guys!"

"Bye AJ!"

"Bye wifey!" Milan yelled and I laughed.

"Bye hubby!" I laughed and then said bye to the guys, then shutting down my computer.

"So you and Lucic?" Rebecca asked as she appeared behind me, scaring the crap out of me, "Sorry."

"We're just friends,'' I said as I stood up and stretched, "I'm going to bed, it's late- er, early," I laughed as I looked at the clock to see that it was after three in the morning.

"Ok, I have to finish my project for school," she said and I shrugged my shoulders.

"It's a Sunday, but all right," I said as I walked down the hallway and into my bedroom to see our dog, Duke the boxer, that mysteriously appeared in our home one day, laying on my bed, "Hey Duke," I smiled and scratched her head, "You're gunna have to move," I laughed as I unzipped my dress and changed into my pajamas.

I turned the TV on that sat on my dresser at the end of the bed and saw that it was on ESPN, I changed it to USA and saw that there were Law and Order reruns on. I groaned because I wanted to stay up and watch it, but I was tired. I gave up and decided to watch it because I had no plans, the whole team was given Sunday off.

I got comfortable in my bed and Duke cuddled next to me and I managed to last about a half hour before I fell asleep, watching a good episode too.
