Dwayne's POV

Today at practice coach had us sit on the bench while Morrigan showed us what she could do. When she was done Coach told us to scrimmage with Morrigan, Charlie, Averman, Guy, Fulton and Goldberg one team against Portman, Luis, Adam, Connie, Julie and me.

I took the face off against Morrigan. She was a lot faster than I though she would be. She quickly took off with the puck. And needless to say her team won.

"Great scrimmage team now 30 laps and you are free to go. Great first day Reilly" Orion said

"Thanks coach" She replied before taking a swig of her water bottle.

Outside the Locker room "Morrigan Cons and I are going to study for that history test you up for it?" Julie asked

"I can do it by myself, thanks." Morrigan snapped. She walked away

"Oh ok it's cool see you later" Connie said morbidly. I could tell that she really wanted to get to know the new female duck.

Morrigan's POV (in her room)

I hate History. With a passion. Especially western expansion stuff. The old west how boring is that.

**Knock**Knock**Knock**

"Morrigan? Are you there? It's me! Dwayne!" a voice came.

"Come on in Dwayne it's open!" I shouted back. He walked in. I loved the way his boots sounded on the wooden floor.

"What are you doing here? I thought that you and the guys were going for pizza," I asked

"Well. I knew something is wrong when you turned down Connie. I mean it wasn't nice and I wanted to know what was wrong" He asked his adorable accent totally bowling me over.

"I don't know. I just don't like new people. I never have and when I get close to someone I tend to become very involved. Most people don't like that. And they exclude me."

"Golly, that is really sad. And does explain a lot. So what are you studying?"

"Western Expansion. I don't understand it."

"Well, history happens to be my best subject here let me show you"

He explained everything to me I completely understood it. After we finished studying. We talked about what life had been before we came to Eden Hall.

"I was the best hockey player in Texas and also the best cattle roper. I lived with my grandma and grandpa cause my parents died in a cattle stampede when I was about 4. I learned to skate when one day and I 5 ½ I some guy came up to me and asked me if I wanted to play for team USA. I said yes and the rest is history."

"Which would you say is more fun hockey or being a cowboy?"

"Gosh Morrigan that ain't fair. Besides I want to know more about you and what your life is like."

"My grandpa is a big time hockey coach and is obsessed with winning. He will do anything to win. You can even ask Adam. Actually I owe Adam my chance to let me play."

"Really?"

"Yeah when Adam left the Hawks Grandpa was pissed yelling about 'how he had no loyal players.' I happened to be sitting in the locker room in my skates waiting for him to help me out of my gear. See, I was really small for my age. The saw me and saw his new star player that could never leave his team. When he died my dad sent me here not knowing what to do with me."

Dwayne nodded. I guessed that he felt the same way: People not being able to deal with him.

I yawned and looked at the time. It was 12 am. Dwayne stood up realizing the time.

"I'll see you tomorrow at breakfast. Do you remember where the Cafeteria is?" Dwayne asked me. I raised my eyebrow at him as if saying 'no'. "Then I'll come and get you around 7:30 k?"

"Ok I'll see you then"

"Bye Morrigan" as he opened the door.

"Uhhh Dwayne?"

"Hmm?"

"Thanks" I said hugging him and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek. He turned bright red and left.

I changed into my pajamas and as fell asleep I thought about Dwayne and if he was thinking about me. 'God I hope so'
