Chapter 17

About a week after New Year's, the boys began a five-game road trip, which would start in Toronto and end in Vancouver. The trip would last a week and the longest I would be without Marc. Even though that is going to be hard, I knew that he and I are going to make it through being apart for that amount of time.

"How was your day?" Maddy asked as we sat down in my living room for a game.

"Uneventful. I woke up, ate, went to the gym, came back and showered. How about you?"

"Just talked to Matt today is all."

"How is he?"

"Pretty good. He's been busy with being out of town so much, but he's coming in the week after next, so you and Marc can finally meet him."

"Sounds fantastic!"

Soon enough, the game started and I was overly excited as I moved around in my seat on the comfortable couch.

"Will you stop that? It's annoying as hell!"

"I'll try, but I can't help it. I'm pumped!!"

She rolled my eyes, but I ignored it and focused on the game. Not even eight minutes into the game, Guerin scored first, then Toronto had to tie it up by the end of the first. The second was...interesting. At one point, it didn't look like Gonch scored, but he did and also got a penalty; coming out, he got a goal. It was the best period by far for my boys and Marc was having a hell of a game. He ended up making 43 saves and was the second star of the game, right behind Gonchar. He looked overly happy that night, so I had to call him, but I waited until Maddy went into my room to change into pyjamas since she was spending the night.

"Hello?" he asked.

"Hey Marc."

"Hey Bella. Did you enjoy the game?"

"Of course. It was awesome!"

He laughed at my enthusiasm.

"Anyway, anything new?"

"Umm...oh! Maddy's boyfriend is coming back next week, so we get to finally meet him!" I said excitedly.

He laughed at me again. I mentally rolled my eyes.

"That's great. I can't wait to meet him either."

We talked for a while longer until he had to leave for the plane. That night, Maddy and I watched a couple animated movies like the kids we are before we fell asleep around two in the morning. About a couple hours, I heard a knock on the door which woke me up instantly.

"What the fuck is that?" I whispered to myself as I rose from the couch.

To tell you the truth, I was scared to death to answer the door. I hesitantly opened the door.

"Hey Bella."

It was my brother.

"It's four in the morning! Why didn't you text me or call me?! I thought you were a burgular or something."

He laughed.

"Stop laughing! This isn't funny!"

"What the fuck is going on?" Maddy asked groggily.

"My brother." I said before turning back to Alex.

"Why are you here?"

"What? You don't want me here?"

I was getting angrier.

"Of course I do. You're my brother for my goodness' sake."

"I should've called, but I was in such a rush to get out here. You realize how bad it is raining out right now? There are a couple things I need to do before I go back."

"Does Elina know you're here? Aren't you missing school?"

"Yes and yes. It's for a school project and you're in it."

"What?"

"It's for my theater class. We have to do a report and/or make a video about somebody we admire."

I blushed.

"Really?"

"Yep."

"That's amazing. I feel honored."

He smiled then hugged me while I heard an aw in the background.

"Ok. Come in. I actually have the guest room set up, so you can go right in."

"Thanks sis."

"No problem. Before you go, I have to introduce you to Maddy. She's my best friend down here, who's also a teacher where I work and a fellow Pens fan."

"Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

They shook hands and then Alex said goodnight before heading to bed.

"He's so sweet." Maddy said laying back down.

"Yeah. I can't believe he's doing this project on me. There have to be other people that he admires."

"Bella, you're his sister. I don't know who he'd admire more."

I let out a light laugh.

"Yeah...well, I'm going back to sleep."

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

The following day, I woke up at ten and immediately headed to the shower to get ready for the day. I had a feeling that it was going to be quite an interesting day. I walked into the kitchen to see Maddy and Alex eating breakfast together.

"Good morning!" I cheerfully said.

"Good mood?" Maddy asked.

"Yep. I have a feeling that today is going to be a good day."

"What are you up to today?" Alex asked.

"I don't know. I just know that tonight Maddy and are going out late tonight."

"Can I head out to the Strip with you guys, head to lunch and have dinner later? I'll chill later and get everything ready for tomorrow. You know, I'm heading out to work with you?"

"Sounds perfect and yeah, I'm really looking forward to that."

"Awesome."

"Sound like a plan, Maddy?" I asked, not forgetting her.

"Yep." she said nodding.

After Alex and Maddy got ready, it was 11:30 and we headed out to the Strip. I began smiling at the memory of Ally coming to visit and Marc coming with us. That was a day that I'll always remember.

I sat beside Ally in the back, while Marc drove. When we reached our destination in the Strip District, her eyes were wide as she observed the sights around her.

"You know how my brother and his girlfriend came to visit and we ate at Spaghetti Warehouse?"

"Yeah?"

"Well, it's in the Strip District. I'll show it to you later."

"Awesome."

We walked in and she squeezed me when she gave me a side hug. I shook my head and laughed.

"You are way too excited."

"No. I'm not."

"Yes. You are."

"You are like a kid in a fucking candy store." I said, unsuccessfully trying to keep a straight face.

"Whatever. Let's just go eat."

After we sat down, Marc kept getting recognized. He wasn't annoyed, but I could tell that he wanted to be left alone. I kissed his cheek and he felt a little better. I decided to text him.

I know that you want to be left alone. It's okay. We'll be alone together later.

A few seconds later...

Thanks. I love you. You're the best. P.S. I can't wait till later. *winks*

I let out a light giggle about three seconds later.

"What are you guys texting each other for?"

"It's none of your business." I said seriously.

"Ok...I'm sorry."

"You don't need to say sorry." I smiled genuinely.

We ordered our amazing sandwiches and once they came, Ally took her time eating hers, while she had a look of pleasure on her face. She was hilarious and a great person to be around, but sometimes, it's like she's a kid. That's okay, though. I'm used to it.

"Bella. This sandwich is ORGASMIC!"

I burst out laughing.

"Do you have to say that so loud?" I said, trying to talk while laughing my ass off.

"Yes. Yes I do. It's only appropriate."

I looked at Marc and he couldn't keep a straight face either. This day with Ally here was exactly what he needed and to put the icing on the cake...our 'alone' time later. Once we were done eating, we went sight seeing, which Ally loved. She looked around in wonder at nearly everything. It was indescribable to say the least and the day was beyond memorable.


"Whatcha thinking about Bella?" my brother asked.

"When Ally came over to visit over two months ago."

"Oh. I imagine that was an interesting day to say the least."

He knew what kind of personality she had.

"Yep. That it was." I said laughing.

When lunch came, I got a text from Marc.

I didn't hear from you this morning. Is everything alright?

Oops. Sorry. I'm okay. I got a knock on my door around four am. Scared the shit outta me.

Who was it?

It was Alex. Long story. I'll tell you later.

Can't wait to hear that. lol. Je'taime!

:) Aimez-vous aussi! ;)


I wondered if he knew I knew that...probably.

"Marc?" Maddy asked.

"Yep. He didn't hear from me, so he was worried."

She nodded.

The day ended up going pretty fast and as soon as dinner was over, I could tell that my brother wanted to go back to my house. A few hours later, we had changed for our night of dancing at Diesel. Before we left though, I sent Marc a pic to tease him.

Look at what you're missing! Haha! I love you!

"What did you just do?" Maddy asked noticing my menacing laugh.

"Look." I said giving her my phone.

"You are terrible!" she said laughing.

"I know."

Seconds later...

Bella!! Don't do this to me! You're killing me here!

I couldn't help but laugh even more. Tonight would only get better and that was hard to imagine.
