Dwayne took a deep breath, closed his eyes and then opened them to reveal Lynn sitting down beside him, a concerned look in her beautiful brown eyes.
"Uh . . . Lynn," he said softly, "Do you really like Adam?" Lynn was taken aback by the question. "Well ya, I do," Lynn said softly," why?" Dwayne couldn't bear to look at her. The moonlight made her short brown hair glisten, the same light that made her eyes dance and sparkle.
"Dwayne?" Lynn persisted. The poor cowboy was stuck between wanted to tell her and not wanted to put her into an uncomfortable situation.
"I jus' wanted t'be sure," Dwayne whispered," is he treatin' ya right?" Lynn grinned and threw an arm around Dwayne broad shoulders.
"He treats me like a queen, cowboy!" she kissed Dwayne on the cheek," thanks for caring, how's your love life?" Dwayne hung his head, his cheek burned from Lynn's lips.
"Dead," Dwayne replied. Lynn smiled lovingly; this cowboy was like an older brother to her, nothing more. Resisting the urge to wrap his arms around her slightly shivering form, Dwayne plastered on a fake smile and then stood up.
"We better be gettin' back, they'll be needin' our help soon," Lynn nodded and grabbed Dwayne's outstretched hand. Adam woke up, his whole body itching. He sprang up and started scratching when he heard laughter outside. He rammed through the door knowing full well who those laughs belonged too. How could they? He was part of their team! Just because he was on the Varsity didn't mean he wanted to hate the Ducks. His beautiful eyes held a look of deep hurt and confusion. He scanned the laughing Ducks for Lynn when he spotted her; Adam glared at Lynn even though she wasn't laughing. Lynn gave Adam an apologetic look.
'That's it! Tomorrow at dawn!" Riley had lost it and was going to show the Ducks that no one messed with the Varsity and got away with it.
That morning the sun was just peaking over the horizon when the two warrior teams on ice collided. The Varsity showed no mercy for the Ducks or any consideration of the sacred hockey rules. Lynn tried to get close to Adam to explain why she had participated in the joke but failed every time because Adam would always skate away after the puck. Finally Charlie was on a break away with Adam only inches away. They soared down the ice pushing and shoving each other.
"DAMMIT BANKS!" Charlie yelled in frustration and pushed Adam and then the fight broke out. Lynn skated over to the boys.
'BOTH OF YOU ARE RIDICULOUS!" she yelled at the top of her lungs, before she could say anything more Cole body checked her into the boards, hard. Lynn collapsed on the ice in pain. Adam and Dwayne were at her side immediately.
"Cole! What'd ya do that for?" Adam asked furious, while gently holding Lynn's head in his lap. Lynn's eyelids fluttered open and she smiled.
"I'm okay Adam," Adam smiled down at her and stroked her hair," I'm sorry about the prank but I had no choice." Adam nodded in forgiveness.
"Banks! What are you doin' near that Canuck?" Riley yelled an evil sort of smirk on his face. Adam looked up. All the fighting had stopped and there was silence. Lynn sat up and glared at Riley. Cole dropped Averman.
"What do you mean Riley?" Charlie spat, "Lynn's American." The Ducks looked at Lynn for confirmation of this but Lynn hung her head.
"How'd ya find out Riley?" Lynn muttered softly. Adam looked at Lynn incredulously.
"What do you mean Lynn? You really are Canadian and you didn't tell me?" Adam and all the Ducks were hurt. Why didn't Lynn tell them? They really don't care that she's Canadian just that she felt the need to hide that from them, her teammates, her friends. Dwayne thought for a moment then looked at Lynn's stiff figure. The defense had stood up and had gone rigid with pride.
"I am Canadian, Riley and I'm damn proud of that, does anyone have a problem with that?" There was silence. Lynn dusted herself off and skated slowly towards the change room right past Coach O'Ryan.
An: so whatcha think? Good? Bad? Could be worse? I kno I didn't put any Sydney and Fulton in this one and I'm really sorry to all u Fulton fans! But the next chappie will have lots of Sydney and Fulton fluffiness! I promise!
