Move Over

"Get out!!" I screamed as soon as it registered in my brain who it was. I jumped to my feet, prepared to forcefully drag her out if I had to.

"Aleksandra, aren't you going to introduce me?" Her voice was snarky, high pitched; just the same as I remembered. I ignored Tyler and Chris checking her out as I continued to glare at her like her head would implode if I did it long enough.

"Did you hear me, you stupid cow, let me repeat it. Get.out." I yelled again, and she flinched away from my voice. I hoped she was scared.

"Who's this?" Seguin asked, intervening into a conversation he wasn't invited into. I just rolled my eyes, hoping the stupid cow would answer the question, I didn't even want to address her.

"I'm her sister" Emerald answered before Seguin could ask again. I controlled my urge to scoff at the title 'sister'. She didn't deserve it.

"Emerald Lehto" she introduced herself, I couldn't stop myself from scoffing that time. She wasn't a Lehto- she was just someone who shared our bloodline.

"You gave that name up the second you walked away from us." I hissed, and she rolled her eyes over to me, like it was tiring even explaining herself.

"Stop being so immature" She disregarded me, and focused on the guys, giving them her fucking award winning smile. The one I loathed.

"Oh, I'm immature one, so I walked away from my dad when he had lung cancer and couldn't afford treatment, I have medical degree and made more than my sister, Cyrus, Kol and Pekka combined." I stated sarcastically, pausing for dramatic effect, "Oh wait, that was you" I stepped forward and jabbed my finger into her chest.

"Believe me, Emerald, I really want to punch you, but I take pride in knowing I'm making more money than you ever will, and you will be forever known as the bitch that left us." I chuckled sarcastically, fighting the urge to slap that stupid smirk right off her face.

"Aleksandra, you're so....... stupid." she chuckled dryly like she was so high above me. Once the words left her mouth I couldn't hold the urge anymore, I snapped light a twig and slapped her so hard my palm print was clear across her face in a red mark.

"Leave, go back Sweden! No one from our family loves or needs the likes of you anymore. Even if we did," I paused to see her reaction, "You'd be the last person we'd ask" The last part was in a low voice that was laced with so much truth that she couldn't bare it. My smile stuck to my face like glue, and it wouldn't leave until the shocked look on her face dispersed. I wasn't her kid sister anymore. I hated her.

"Alek, please don't be mad, I only did that because I needed too" she exclaimed, tears streaking her cheeks. I rolled my eyes, seeing through her persona.

"Um...Sorry to interrupt," It was Marchand, he was eyeing my sister like a wolf circling a deer. To him she was easy meat, and I wasn't going to stop him.

"Hello, I'm Emerald, Aleksandra's sister" she smiled through the fake tears, giving him the show he apparently wanted.

"You're far from being my sister," I snapped, storming out of the room- fetching my coat and pulling on my shoes.

"Where are you going?" Tyler and Tuukka asked at the same time, coming out into the foyer where I was tying the laces of my work boots.

"To the rink," I looked Emerald up and down, as she waltzed into the foyer, "Call me when she's gone"

I walked out the door, down the snowy drive way towards the rink. I don't know how far it was, but I just wanted to get away from her. She left us, then she comes just when I'm starting to get some income.

"Alek!" Tuukka yelled after me, I could hear his footsteps crunch against the freshly fallen snow. He touched my shoulder lightly.

"What?" I asked, whipping myself around to face him.

"What?," he mocked my voice in a high pitched voice, that made me want to laugh, "You just slapped your sister in front of all the guys without explanation," His eyes begged from some sort of insight. I just shrugged, I truly wanted to beat her brains in, or at least get another slap in.

He looked like he wasn't going to drop it so, I sighed, and began the tale "She was 23, she was the only one of us that made it through university- that was when we had college funds" I began walking again, only this time he was walking beside me- the warmth radiating off of him was impeccable.

"My Father fell ill with lung cancer, our college funds were the first to go. My mom had been retired for years and wasn't able to keep working because of hip problems." I paused and looked for a reaction, there was none; he just look intrigued.

"We asked my sister, a well paid medical undergrad at the time, to pitch in some money for my dad's treatment, long story short, she got on a train and was gone to Sweden, that's why I suffered through the Finnish Elite, the sexist comments, the drinks being thrown, etc." I shrugged, pulling my best fake smile.

"I have a fucking right to be mad at that bitch." I fumed, "She destroyed our family, my brother, that I promised wouldn't have to work, dropped out of school and picked up a job in the mines with my other three brothers, Kol, Cyrus and Pekka."

"Why did she do that?" Tuukka asked and I shrugged again.

"Because she's a narcissistic, ungrateful, severely stupid cow " I told him, and he stopped, I just kept walking. A few moments later he grabbed onto my waist, and devoured me in an awkward back hug.

"I just want her to leave," I breathed, turning around to face him. I leaned my head on his chest, inching my arms around his waist.

"Alek?" his voice was muffled by my hair, it made me smile.

"unhuh" I hummed, and he raised my chin with his finger so that I was forced to look into his eyes.

And just like that, without any warning.......He kissed me. Tuukka Mikael Rask kissed me. The Tuukka that for weeks after I got here, hated my guts was now kissing me. Holy Shit.

Notes

Oh....I hate that bitch Emerald, leaving her family!
