Luis smacks an apple into my hand. "Eat that before you get out there."

I groan. "If I eat anything right now, I'll puke."

He shrugs. "Too bad."

I try to hand it back to him but he pushes it back to me. "Please, Lia."

I sigh. "Fine."

I take a smallish bite before holding it back out to him. "Done."

He stares at me. "You're joking."

"Nope." I shake my head. "Here."

"Amelia." he huffs. "Stop messing around."

"I'm not."

"Then eat it all." his voice is stern.

I roll my eyes angrily. "Fine . . ."

I take a bigger bite and Luis watches me closely. I swallow it and stare back at him.

"Happy?"

He smiles. "Yes, thank you."

I smile sarcastically and smack the apple back into his hand. Before he can say anything, Bombay skates over to me.

"Amelia, you ready to try again?" he asks.

"Um, yeah . . ." I mumble quietly. "My hand should be better now."

"Okay, come on." He waves me out onto the ice.

I nervously pick up my hockey stick and Luis puts a hand on my back. "You'll be fine."

I look at him. "I know. I just don't want my hand to hurt because then Bombay won't let me play."

He sighs. "Well . . . that may be true but-"

"Just . . . stop talking." I wave a hand at him.

"Good idea," he mumbles. "You'll still be fine."

"Thanks." I sigh softly.

I then hop onto the ice and skate over to Bombay. "Okay, I'm ready."

"Good." he nods. "First, just try to get the puck in the goal from here."

I look over at the goal that is a few feet away.

Okay, that's easy. You got this, Lia.

"Okay, that should be doable."

He backs up and slides the puck over to me. I smack it hard and luckily, it goes into the goal. I smile and hear Luis cheering for me.

"Whoo-hoo!" he cheers. "I told you you could do it!"

I chuckle.

He's such a dork.

"Good job, Peterson." Bombay claps. "Does your hand hurt?"

I shake my head. "Nope. It feels fine."

"Perfect." he nods. "You ready to play a game of hockey?"

I smile while nodding. "Of course."

Luis smiles and lifts me off the ground. "I knew you could do it!"

I laugh while wrapping my arms around his neck. "Thank you, but it's not that big of a deal."

"Not that big of a deal?" he scoffs. "You can play again!"

"I know, but we already knew that."

"I don't care. I'm still happy."
