A/N: Sorry for such a short chapter! It is just a little introduction. So yeah, hope you all like it~!
Excited chatter, blades cutting across the ice, and the sounds of hockey players hitting their sticks against the wall filled the air. The announcers came on to declare that the NY Rangers had made another goal. Not that Ivan Braginski, who had just moved to America from Russia, could hear over all the yelling. Now the Rangers were tied with the Devils but there was only 5 seconds left on the clock.
"Beilschmidt's got the puck!"
""Devil fans are going home without a win tonight! Beilschmit is the only German female to ever join the team, especially for her young age!"
"True but she is definitely the best player out there! I mean, look at her go! She has scored the most points for this team in all of history and it's no wonder since you can barely see her out there, she's going so fast!"
Ivan was on the edge of his seat as his eyes followed her. The buzzer sounded and Bri made the shot. The puck was moving so fast that there was a gasp that spread through the crowd as it was revealed that the Devil's goalie had dropped down to his knees effectively stopping the puck in its tracks. The NY Rangers had just lost their first game of the season. Instead of waiting for the announcement that they had lost, Ivan rushed to the locker rooms. Since he also played hockey he was allowed in them. He went to his team's locker room and waited. Bri was a junior at FU collage which also happened to be the collage he was transferred to. She was absolutely amazing! Her natural sun-kissed skin and jet-black hair complimented her ice-blue eyes wonderfully. She was always surrounded by people simply because everyone loved her. What was not to love? She spoke multiple languages, was great at sports, beautiful, volunteered a lot and had amazing grades. Of course it was odd that she attended a collage in Florida seeing as her team was the New York Rangers but he wasn't complaining. She was the love of his life but sadly, he was sure that she didn't even know he existed. He waited in the locker room until he saw Bri pass by. He quickly ran out to catch up to her and walked up next to her.
"Privyet. You did amazing out there Bri! Great game!"
"I don't know if you know this but… we lost…"
"Well da, but it was still a good game and you gave an amazing performance."
"Danke. Say, you're that transfer student from Russia right? Ivan?"
"Da! That's me!"
"Right… so you play hockey correct?"
"Da."
"Cool. You and I should play some time."
"Da that sounds great!"
"Awesome. Well I have to go, talk to ya Monday?"
"Of course."
Bri smiled and walked off. Ivan's heart was beating so hard, he feared it would beat right out of his chest. Not only did Bri know who he was but she wanted to play a game of hockey with him! Wait… Oh shit! Bri, the pro hockey player, wanted to play a game with him, the rookie!
"I… Am fucked…"
