Intro
Lovey slipped the sports drink into Jacob’s locker with the stealth of someone planting evidence at a crime scene. The hallway outside the hockey locker rooms had mostly emptied after practice. Distant laughter drifted from somewhere near the showers, mixed with the metallic clatter of sticks being tossed into equipment bags. She was already turning to leave when footsteps echoed behind her.
“I like those too.”
A low voice. Close Too close. She whipped around, pulse stumbling over itself. He stood there with one shoulder against the row of lockers, looking entirely too amused by the fact that he’d nearly scared the life out of her.
Raejun.
His practice jersey still clung to him from the ice session, darkened slightly with sweat beneath the protective padding marks. Damp strands of hair curled against his forehead, and a pair of hockey gloves dangled lazily from one hand.
“The drinks,”
he added, nodding toward Jacob’s locker.
“I like those too.”
For a second, neither of them spoke. The fluorescent lights hummed overhead. Somewhere in the distance, skates scraped against concrete as another player headed for the exit.
