The beginning of the season was today! The start of Anthony's new life was here. Last night I had a dream that Anthony got called up to the nhl and left me. I don't not want to be apart of his life but I don't know how to talk to him and I don't want to hold him back.

Conner has been texting me non stop. I guess the oilers want him to play this year. I'm happy for him and want to be there for him but I can't go back to that part of my life.

Anthony was gone and it was just me in this studio apartment that had an amazing view of Syracuse.

Marie had called and wanted to get ready for the game.

KNOCK KNOCK

I opened the door to see a smiling Marie.

"You and tony?" She said

"Wha" I was cut off

"Yanni keeps telling me how you are the only thing that kid talks about" she said while laughing

"We aren't dating, but that is so cute" I said while blushing

"I know you like him too I can tell by your checks. So, WHY AREN'T YOU TOO TOGETHER." She said

"I don't know. I want to , but" I was cut off again

"But what, you can't. Yeah that's what I said about yanni... now look at me."

"Should I talk to him after that game?"

"Yes! You have to! I'll make sure of that!"

"Now lets get ready" She said.

We put on our crunch jerseys. Hers a Gourde and mine a Cirelli. We did are hair and makeup and we out the door.

Anthony's POV

My first game was amazing! A team win 5-2!
No goal but I did get an assist, I'll take it! We got back into the locker room. Coach came in and was telling us we worked hard and that practice tomorrow at 9:00am was optional. I was definitely going! I need to show how much I want to be here and how bad I want to play!

After I got dressed some media wanted to do an interview and I gladly accepted.

"What was the key to your team game" a man asked

(I'm doing this for my own fun!)

"Well I think we just got pucks deep and kept pushing the net, which gave us a fighting chance." I said

After a few more questions the interview was over. Yanni came up to me and told me that Emily was waiting for me in the family waiting area. My heart started to skip. When I saw her she was so happy and all it did was make me even happier. She ran and gave me a hug!

"I am so proud of you!" She said

"You played so well!"

"Thank you, and thank you for coming also." I said

"Are you kidding, like I would miss this!" She said while smiling.

She got a phone call. She look at her phone I saw that it was her dad, she looked at it awhile and then decided to answer.

"Sorry" She said looking at me

I mouthed that it was okay.

"Hello"

"Hi"

"You're there?"

"You what"

"No, no"

"NO, I'm not and I sadly never will" with that she hung up the phone

"Hey are you okay" I asked seeing that sad and hurt in her eyes

"No,but this day is about you, let just go out and have fun." She said

"Are you sure." I said

"Yes" She said while turning around and heading towards the exit.
