53. RICK

It was 5 am. We were skating circles on the ice, ready for the unofficial game. We had our Ducks jerseys on. It was dark and misty. The tension could be cut with a knife.

I heard Banksie and Charlie talking, Banks telling him how he didn't know about the dine and dash. Of course Charlie didn't believe him, but we all know deep down Banks didn't know. He really is a nice kid, just good at hockey and rich.

I was still pissed at Rick. But then I noticed Les clearly pissing him off, making me laugh. He grabbed Les by the top of the jersey, which was enough for me to skate over.

"Let go of him" I said sternly

His angry face softened and he let go "Sorry. Kay can we talk?"

"My apologies Riley, but we've got a game to get started" I said grabbing Les and skating away

"What happened between you two?" Les asked

"Long story short he called me trash"

"Wow what a bitch."

"Honestly. Don't worry though, justice will be served" I smirked

"I like the way you think"

I smirked skating towards the middle, right across from none other than Rick Riley.

"Fancy seeing you here" I said

He looked at me kinda sadly, but then his demeanor changed "First to ten. Full check"

I nodded smirking, and allowing my anger to be channeled.

As soon as our sticks slapped the 3rd time, I dropped my shoulder and rammed right into him, knocking him back and grabbing the puck. I chuckled skating quickly towards the goal and passing to Guy, not too far from me.

He shot and it bounced off the post, but Connie had his back and got it, scoring. I skated up to Connie "YEAH CONNIE"

She smiled "Let's keep it up"

Guy and I nodded going back to center. This time I was right and Guy was in the center. Cole looked down at me chuckling "This'll be good sweetheart"

"You're damn right it will be"

Cole checked into me and I hit the ground. God damn he is one big motherfucker

I shot up skating quickly to Cole who now had the puck, I came up behind him and hooked him... whoops.

I scooped the puck and flew up the ice, Rick came up behind me attempting to steal it so I passed to Kenny. I saw Rick heading full force at him so I sped up quickly throwing my entire body into him, knocking both of us into the board before he could get to Kenny. Before getting up I watched Kenny score "HELL YEAH KEN"

"Really Kay?" Rick asked

"Full check Ricky" I said getting up and heading to the bench

"Damn Kay you took his ass OUT" Russ said

"As she should" Les said

"Damn straight" Julie added

I smiled "We're just getting started my friends"

After watching varsity score once and us twice, I went back out. Varsity got the puck and scored, Charlie, Connie and I nearby. Charlie was getting heated and Rick was definitely not helping.

"What the hell was that?" Charlie yelled pushing Rick slightly

Before Rick could do anything Connie and I stepped in front, Connie was fighting to get at them "Let me at him Charlie"
