:::Adam's view:::
So there we were. I hated the varsity now more than ever. They were about to destroy one of my best friends...
"Guy, you don't have to do this. Call it now, and we'll head home."
"But then the varsity will bug us all summer and Charlie'll have a fit. Might as well end it now."
"What if you lose?"
"Then I can say I tried." He said as he headed to the middle of the court.
I heard Riley whisper to Scooter. "This is like throwing him to the lions."
To my surprise Guy won the puck and skated right to the net and hit the crossbar. He got back on defense, and got it back. After a few more minuets it was over and we had won.
I knew that Guy was good, but I had never really taken the time to watch him play, I mean really watch him. But I had to admit, he was good, one of our most consistent players, Coach hardly ever had to say anything to him at all.
"What the heck was that Cole?" Riley asked, enraged with his `so called friend'.
Cole didn't reply.
"A bet's a bet, I beat you. You leave us alone for the rest of the summer." Guy said.
"Yeah, we'll see about that." Riley said as he skated away, he motioned for everyone else to follow him.
Guy sighed. "I have a bad feeling about this."
Little did he know that up in Maine, Julie was in even bigger trouble...
:::Julie's POV:::
"Nice night huh?" AJ asked me as we stepped outside the party.
"Yeah, it sure is good to be home."
"There was a lot of talk about you after you left. you know, rumors and stuff."
"Really?" I asked, I hadn't really liked to anyone.
"Yeah, everyone was talking about you. I never really even found out the whole story."
"Oh, well, me and my hockey team god scholarships to this school in Minnesota."
"Oh yeah, that's right, your the big hockey player." He joked.
I just smiled. "Yeah. Anyway, it was a lot of fun. The team is really great."
"That's cool." AJ said uncomfortably.
I just nodded and looked away.
"I was really bummed when you left."
"Why?"
"Because I liked you." He admitted.
"Really?" I asked. "I always had a crush on you too!"
He smiled. "We've got all summer you know."
"To do what?" I asked.
"This." He said quietly, leaning in to kiss me. It was really nice, and things were going great, until I felt his hands move to a place that they shouldn't have been. I immediately pulled away.
"What are you doing?" I squealed.
"What?" He asked. "Don't you want me?"
"I don't know you AJ, not anymore!" I protested.
"Come on, Julie. It's not that big of a deal. Just one night, no strings attached."
"NO!" I protested. "Leave me alone!" I yelled. I tried to get up to leave but he pulled me back down. I ended up wriggling out of his reach and back into the house, where I found my brother, Kyle. He was dancing with some girl.
"Kyle, we have to go!" I said, I was crying by now.
"What?" He asked. "Julie, what's wrong?"
"I'll tell you later but we have to go NOW!" I insisted. He agreed, only because of the pathetic state I was in and we walked out to the car. When we got in I told him everything that had happened. And held me while I cried. When we got home I made him swear not to tell mom and dad. I didn't want them turning this into some big huge deal. But I was freaked out. I looked at the clock when I got him. It was almost midnight. I decided to call Connie anyway. I had to tell her what had happened. I couldn't wait another minuet.
:::Connie's view:::
I was almost asleep when I was ruddily awakened by the phone ringing. My dad still wasn't home. He probably wouldn't be until early tomorrow morning. I reached over to my night stand and picked it up.
"Hello?" I asked groggily. Inwardly swearing to myself that if it was a telemarketer I would cuss them out.
"Connie?" A teary voice asked, it sounded like Julie.
"Julie?" I asked.
"Connie, the worst thing the happened to me!" She went on to explain about AJ, and what a jerk he had been to her.
"Julie, that's awful!" I exclaimed after she had finished the whole story.
"I don't want to be here, Connie. I never knew how much I'd miss Minneapolis."
"It'll be okay, really."
"Yeah, I guess. So what did um, what did you do today?"
"We just played some street hockey, and then I came home and took a shower, and watched TV, and here I am. Averman's leaving tomorrow afternoon for camp so were having a little goodbye party before he leaves at the Goldburg's."
"Oh, well then I guess I'll let you go."
"Julie, things will get better I promise." I said.
"I hope so...Bye."
"Bye." I replied. Now I was worried about Julie. I hoped that that AJ guy stayed away from her. But I did manage to get to sleep that night. And wake up the next morning in time to go to the deli and see Averman off. After a few hours he was gone and it was just Me, Guy, Charlie, Adam, Goldburg, and Fulton. Guy and Adam told us all about the whole incident with the varsity. That was unsettling. I knew that they were capable of reeking habbic, I guess we would just have to wait and see.

That's it....stinks huh? It was a transitional chapter. I had some stuff to finish up- but the story will continue....for now, r&r!!!!!!!!!
