The Art of Hockey(#2)

Dakota's P.O.V.
Evgeni and I hadn't said a word to each other that wasn't strictly professional in about 4 days. I missed him but he truly over reacted to me dancing with Taylor, it was harmless fun which is what I told him but still he was pissed at me.
I was putting some icepacks back in the freezer when Evgeni walked in and put a gentle hand on my back.
"Can we talk?" He asked quietly.
"Yes. But not here." I said quickly, "I'll meet you at that little coffee shop in market square after practice."
"Ok. I'll see you." He said walking away.
I returned to what I was doing and then when everybody else cleared out I slipped on my jacket, grabbed my laptop and backpack and made my way to my car, before driving to the coffee shop I was talking about. I spotted Evgeni sitting in the back with a cup in his hands, I ordered my usual medium black coffee, paid and walked over to the table he was at.
"So... Why'd you wanna talk?" I asked sitting down.
"I'm not mad anymore. I overreacted. I love you and I want us to stop be mad and be together again." He said giving me a small smile.
"I can't be with you if you're going to get mad every time I interact with a guy outside of the rink." I said honesty, "and I don't want to be with you if you're so possessive."
"I know." He said, "I understand you gorgeous, and I lucky to have you and that other guys want you."
"Well, thank you. And I also want us to be together again." I said smiling up at him.
"Yay!" He replied placing his hand on mine, "you want to come over?"
"No. You should come over to my apartment and we'll have a lazy Friday night." I said standing up and grabbing my backpack.
"Ok." He said quickly standing up to join me, "I'll be over at 7."
"I'll see you then." I said as we walked out of the shop and I walked off towards my car.
I hopped into my Tahoe and quick sent a text to Sophia asking her if she was ready to get picked up. She never replied and I assumed she was just dancing around, painting and listening to really loud music.
I pulled up to the studio and could see her figure dancing in the window. I quickly hopped out and walked into the studio I turned off the music and she stopped dead in her tracks. She never turned around instead she started sauntering over the the hook and she hung up her apron.
"You enjoy the view Jamey?" She asked.
"Jamey?" I burst out laughing.
"Oh shit! I thought you were James coming to apologize!" She started laughing while she was 3 different shades of red.
"No it's just me. Come on let's go home." I said.
We walked out to the car and I straight up told her she had to get out of the house tonight because Evgeni was coming over. She obliged and said she'd go back to the studio to finish her project.

Evgeni and I were sitting on the couch watching the Blue Jackets v. Hurricanes game when he said, "Hey, Dakota? You know candle you bought? Where are they?"
"They're on the table in my bedroom. Why?" I asked, sitting up and looking at him.
"I have idea. Come on." he said, standing up and reaching his hands out to me and pulling me up.
"There." I said, pointing to the table with the candles, "Why do you want them?"
"I know what we do on lazy Friday night." Geno said, smiling at me, as I helped him with the candles. "Bathroom." He said and I followed him inside. "You have bubbles?"
"In the closet." I said getting them.
"I know how to make tonight amazing." He said, kissing my forehead as I handed him the bottle. "Okay. Sit here and watch bath tub and I'll get something to drink." He said as he walked out.
I started to set up the candles as the tub started to fill up, making the bathroom a bit too hot. I walked out of it looking for a lighter and Geno walked in with 2 glasses and some wine. "In you go." He said, as I picked up the lighter and walked back inside the bathroom followed by Geno. He set the glasses down and started to fill them as I lit the candles and he poured the bubbles into the tub.
"Perfect." He said, walking up to me and kissing me. His hands moved to my waist and lifted my t-shirt. I moved away, letting him lift it off my head. I undid whatever few buttons he had buttoned up on his shirt and slipped it off his shoulders. I got out of my shorts and he got his jeans off, after struggling a little, making me laugh. He just smiled at me and reached his hands behind me and got my bra off and pressed me to his chest, kissing me. I moved my hands to his underwear, noticing how the heat of the bathroom was dotting his chest with sweat, and pulled his underwear down, his hands doing the same to mine.
I looked over his shoulder at the tub and said, "Time to go, Evgeni." and walked past him towards the tub.
I turned off the water and Geno stepped in before me, making some of the water overflow.
"Damn it." he muttered and I laughed, sitting down in the tub in front of him and spilling some water too. I moved some of the bubbles closer to us and Evgeni held my waist and pulled my back closer to his chest, kissing my neck. I rested my head on his chest, feeling it rise and fall as he wrapped his arms around my waist and I intertwined my fingers with his. He rested his head in the crook of my neck, our legs tangled under the water, as he placed little kisses on my neck and shoulders.
"I love you so much." He whispered against my bare skin.
"I love you too." I replied, slightly turning my head to face him so I could kiss him.
"Here." he said, breaking the kiss and moving his hands from my waist to reach for my glass.
"Thank you, love" I said, taking it from him and taking a little sip of the cold wine.
"Good, isn't it?" He asked just after I felt him swallow some of it. I nodded and leaned my head back towards his chest again, taking little sips and enjoying the feeling of sitting in a tub with Evgeni on a Friday night with our legs tangled and our fingers intertwined.
"You know what?" He asked, placing his empty glass on the side of the tub.
"What?" I asked softly, trying not to disturb the quiet of the bathroom.
"I know something make tonight better." Geno whispered, kissing my neck and reaching his hand around me to take my glass.
"What is that?" I asked, knowing very well what he meant.
"Come on." he said, standing up and stepping out of the tub, wrapping a towel around his waist and handing another to me, I tied it around my body and followed him out of the bathroom in to the cold bedroom, giving me goosebumps.
"I'm happy we're together." He said dropping his towel and making me drop mine.
"Me too."
"Makeup sex?" He whispered in my ear.
"Absolutely." I moaned pushing him onto the bed and crawling on top. From the look in his eyes I knew it was going to be a long night.
