A few weeks later, I am back at LAX to fly to Dallas, Texas. Tyler Seguin, the Center of the Dallas Stars is on my flight. I sit in the window seat and the plan takes off. Three hours and ten minutes later, we're at the Dallas Love Airport. Tyler gets the rental car. Jamie Benn, the left wing wants a ride with Tyler and I. We invite the captain in. The teammates flashback to the Valentines prank they pulled. My phone buzzes and I open it to reveal a text message from Travis.
Text Message:
Hey Vanessa, I'm in Texas playing the Cowboys and I was hoping to see you.
I look at Tyler and I smile. The radio plays Justin Bieber.

I pick up my phone and I try to compose a text message. My fingers start to type but I delete my message. Tyler and Jamie head to the arena and the locker room. I wait in the press room and I sit in the seat and start to cry. Tyler looks in the press room worried. I tell the players I want to leave the arena. Tyler tells Jamie to tell Coach Montgomery that he's out on leave. I'm in the parking garage of the American Airlines Center waiting for a vibe. A moment later, Tyler's car pulls up and he invites me inside. I give Tyler my destination AT&T Stadium. I look at the stadium and the staff ushers me to the press room. I'm thinking about a football player and I text him
Text Conversion:
I'm here in the press room.
I'm out on the field.
I have so much I want to stay to you right now.
I do too. It's going to be hard getting all of my thoughts out on a text message.
I know the feeling. How about you meet me in the press room?
I'll be gone on a flight back to Kansas City.
You're not staying in Los Angels?
Nope. Where's your next stop?
Las Vegas. The Stars are on a five game road trip and the first stop is Vegas.
Wow! I'm going to meet you in the press room.
See you.
Bye.
A few moments later, Travis and I are face to face in the press room of AT&T Stadium.
