Four

When we got there I saw all the guys standing and waiting outside for them to be able to get on the plane. Kris was with Max, Marc, Sid, Billy, and Evgeni. All of them were laughing. I smiled and walked over to them.
"Hey!" Kris said.
I smiled, "Hey, y'all."
Max put his arm around me, "So, are you going to sit with me?" he said smiling.
"Hey!" Marc yelled.
"Sorry, Max. I've already been taken."
"What! By who!"
I pointed to Kris, "Him."
"Of coarse." he whispered in my ear.

I laughed and, he took his arm off of me.
Everyone started boarding the plane. Kris walked over to me. "Ready?"I smiled at him.
"Yes." He smiled back at me and, we walked up the stairs.

Sidney and Billy sat across from us, and Marc and Max sat next to us.
"Okay, Carissa. Since theses kids are playing their stupid PSP. What do you want to talk about?" Billy asked me after a little bit on the plane.
"How about why everyone loves you to death." I said smiling.
"Because, I'm fun!" he said laughing. "No, really. I have no idea."
"You seem to get along with everyone here."
"Yeah, I do. Everyone gets along with everyone. That's what I love. It's one big family. Remind me to thank your dad for getting me here."
I laughed. "Will do."

Soon Kris and Sidney got off of the PSP.
"Have fun?" I said smiling at both of them.
"I lost." Kris said.
"I won." Sid smiled at me.
"Do you always win?"
"Yes!" I heard about the whole plane say.
I laughed and looked out the window.

"Hey. Are you excited to see Cheyenne?"
"Yeah, I haven't seen her in forever."
He smiled. "Yeah, I bet you are excited."
"Totally! Hey, you want to get lunch with me, before I have to go pick up Cheyenne?"
"Sure." he said smiling. "As long as I get to go to the airport with you to meet Cheyenne."
I laughed. "Okay. But, can I ask you something?"
"Yes?"
"Why do you want to meet Cheyenne?"
"Because she can tell me funny stories about you." he said smiling.
"Ahh. So the truth comes out."
He smiled at me. "It will always come out."

"Oh, come on!" Max yelled. "Would you two stop flirting!"
I was shocked he just said that. Were we flirting?
"We aren't flirting." I said.
"Yes, you were!" Marc yelled.
"Marc, we weren't flirting." Kris said.
"Yes you were!" Sid and Billy said together.

I laughed, and decided to change the conversation.
"Wow. You two spend way too much time together." I said. "So everyone says." Sid said rolling his eyes.
Soon the plane landed and everyone headed to the hotel.

After we put our bags in our rooms I met Kris in the hotel restaurant.
"Hey, when do you have to go get Cheyenne?" Kris said looking down at his watch while we were eating."Um. Three."
"It's two-thirty. Want to head out, now?"
"Yeah." I said standing up.
We both got into a cab and went to the airport. Kris and I were playing cards when Cheyenne walked over to us. I looked up. "Cheyenne!" I yelled.

"Carissa! It's so good to see you!" she said.
"Who's this?" she asked looking at Kris.
Kris stood up. "This is Kris. Kris, this is Cheyenne."
"Obviously." he said laughing shaking Cheyenne's hand.
"Is this a boyfriend I never heard about?" Cheyenne said looking at me.
We both laughed. "No. Were just friends."
"Uh huh. He's pretty cute." she said.

I looked over to Kris, who was blushing.
"I know." I whispered to her.
She smiled at me and we started walking outside.


"So. If you think he's cute, then why aren't you going out with him?" Cheyenne asked later when we were sitting in our hotel room.
"Relationships, aren't just for looks, Chey."
"Oh, I know. But, you two look reaaalllyyyy cute together."
I laughed. "Well.. then it's a good thing were like best friends isn't it?"
"Fine. Yes, it is."
"Okay. Go to sleep." I said. It was 12:00.
"Fine. Night."
"Night."

I woke up around 8:00. The team had a practice today, and then a game tonight. Cheyenne and I weren't going to the practice, but we were going to the game. It won't be the first hockey game I went to, but it probably would be the first one I was interested in.We were hanging out with the guys before they go to practice though. They pretty much all met Cheyenne yesterday. We walked to Kris' hotel room where everyone was at.

"Hey." I said to Max when he answered the door.
"Hey, guess what!" Max answered.
I laughed. "What!"
"Since neither of you have a jersey we are going to give you both a jersey. But, you. Carissa, have to decide who's jersey you want. Don't worry. I won't be mad if you pick Kris." he said. Everyone else was talking.

"I think I'm going to wear Kris' if you don't mind." I said smiling. I took him by his hand and pulled him over. I whispered in his ear, "But, could you get Jordan's jersey for Cheyenne. I think she has a little crush on him."
He looked at me and smiled. "Of coarse."

"Hey Kris, Jordan! Give Carissa and Cheyenne your jerseys."
Kris walked over to me and handed me a jersey. "Don't you need this tonight?" I asked.
"No. That's the one I wore the last game. We got new ones."
"Oh, well. Thank you." I said giving me a hug. He hugged me back.
"Your welcome."

"It smells like you." I said laughing.
"And you know what I smell like?"
"Well.. I did wear your hoodie before."
"Oh, yeah." he said smiling.

"So, does Cheyenne have a crush on Jordan?"
"What makes you say that?" I said laughing, looking at Cheyenne and Jordan flirting.
"Oh, I don't know." he said being sarcastic.
"You know, she thinks we should got out because, 'We look good together.'" I said using air quotes.
He laughed. "It's a good thing we're best friends, then."
"That's what I said!"


We hung out with the guys some more, and then they had to go to practice.
"So, I saw you and Jordan flirting." I said smiling at her, when we were walking around.
"Oh, so your telling me you and Kris weren't flirting?"
"We weren't." he said.
"Oh yes you were! Jordan said you two flirt all the time!"
"Is that what Jordan said?" I said smiling.
"Shut up!" she yelled.

Kris' point of view

We got to the arena and was in the locker room.
"Soo Kris, what were you and Carissa talking about?" Billy said elbowing me in the side.
I shot him a look. "Seriously guys, would you please stop it."
"No." everyone said.
"Oh, come on Kris. You know you two flirt all the time." Max said.
"No, I don't. Because, we don't."
"Yes, you do." Sid said.
"Carissa and Kris sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G." Max sang.

I rolled my eyes and finished getting ready. We got done with practice and went back to the hotel. We all had to take our pre-game naps. But, I still had two hours before I had to take mine. I decided to call to Carissa room, and I took Jordan with me for Cheyenne.


Carissa's point of view


I heard a knock on the door. I opened and saw Kris and Jordan. "Hey." I said smiling.
"Hey." they both said.
"Want to go to lunch with us?" Kris asked.
"I don't know. Is that an invite for Cheyenne, too?"
"Of coarse!"
"Okay. Sure, I'll go get Cheyenne and we'll get ready. You guys can come in and do whatever if you want."
"Okay." they both said, and walked in.


"Hey, Cheyenne!" I yelled, "Jordan and Kris are here. We're going to lunch with them."
"Okay!" she said excitedly.
We both got ready and walked out to where Kris and Jordan was.
"Ready?" I asked.
"Yeah." they both said and jumped up.


"Are we just going to eat at the hotel restaurant?" I asked.
"Yes! Please! I'm starving!" Jordan said.
I laughed. "Okay. We'll eat there then."


When we got there, there was only two tables left both with two seats and on different sides of the restaurant. I wanted to let Jordan and Cheyenne get some time alone with each other. So, Kris and I sat together.
"It seems like we eat together everyday." I laughed.
"Awe. That's not a bad thing."
"No, it's not. Okay, so I have to ask since you know about my best friends. Who is your best friend?"
"Umm. Well.. My best friend died last year."
"Wow. I'm so sorry."
He gave me a small smile. "I am close with a lot of people on the team."


"You know. I consider you, basically, my best friend." I said.
"Really?"
"Yeah, I mean. You are defiantly one of my best friends. And, your the only best friend that is in Pittsburgh."
"I consider you like my best friend, too."
"Your going to leave soon though."
"Yeah.." he sighed. "But, I'm not going to be gone forever."
"I know. But, who am I going to tease when your not here?" I said smiling at him.
"You can still tease me on the phone." he laughed.
"I'm going to have to do that!"


I looked over to Jordan and Cheyenne laughing. "It seems like Jordan and Cheyenne are getting along."
He looked over, and laughed. "Yeah, but what are they going to do if they get together?"
"I have no idea." I sighed.
"She should move here!"
I laughed. "She wouldn't do that. Her whole life is at home. Unless she really. I mean, really, loves Jordan she isn't going to move."
"I just hate for Jordan to get his heart broken again, last time he was so miserable. No one could get him to cheer up."
"Awe. I'll feel bad."
"Yeah.."

"What about you?" I asked.
"What are you talking about?"
"What about your previous relationships?"
"About a month ago, I broke up with my girlfriend of two years."
"Why?"
"She changed. All she wanted now was my money."
"I'm sorry."
He smiled "It's okay. What about your relationships?"
"Are you ready for a long story?" I laughed.
"Yes." he smiled.

"I had a boyfriend every place I lived except in Canada," I started. "None of them really cared about me. When I moved to San Antonio, I became best friends with Chris. We both ended up liking each other as more than friends. So, we decided to try it out. Then, he started hanging out with this other girl more. I could tell he liked her. So, I broke up with him. He ended up going out with the girl, but breaking up with her. He said he wanted me, but I didn't want it. We ended up becoming best friends again. And, that's where we are now."
"Wow. So I'm guessing that was the most seriously boyfriend you ever had?"
"Yeah, I was older then. So, It was easier to have a boyfriend."

"Hey." Jordan said coming over to us.
"Hi." we both said.
"We have to go take our nap." he said to Kris.
"Oh, okay. I'll see you later." Kris said to me.
"Bye." I said.
"Bye."

They both left and Cheyenne sat down. "So, how are you and Jordan?" I asked.
"He asked me to be his girlfriend." he said with a smiled.
"Awe. What are you going to do about the distance though?"
"I have no idea. But, we'll figure it out. How are you and your loverboy?" she said smiling.
"He is not my boyfriend!" I said.
"Fine. But, admit it. You like him."
I smiled slightly, "I don't know. I guess I kinda do."
"I knew it! Does he like you?"
"I don't know! I'm not just going to ask him! And, this just started."
"I'll ask!" she said running after Jordan and Kris.
"Chey! No! Stop!" I said running after her.
I saw she found them and I just went up to my room. Saving myself from embarrassment.

Kris' point of view

"Kris! Kris!" I heard someone say.
I turned around and saw Cheyenne running after us, with Carissa running after her. Once Cheyenne got there, I saw Carissa just go into the elevator.
"Kris!" she said on more time, catching her breath.
"What?" I asked.
"I need to ask you something!" she said pulling me into a corner away from Jordan.
"What is it?" I asked, confused.
"Do you like Carissa?" she asked.
I was shocked. Where was this coming from, why was she asking. Should I tell her?
I sighed. "Yeah."
"Seriously!"
"Yeah. Why?"

"She likes you!"
"No she doesn't."
"Yes, she does. Kris!"
"Okay. Yeah, I'm happy about that. But, for now I want to just be friends. I want to get to know each other. And, I don't really want a relationship right now."
She sighed. "I understand. It's okay. Do you want me to tell Carissa?"
"No. Don't tell her anything." I sighed.
"Okay. I'll let you get your nap. Bye." she said walking away.
