Chapter 6:

Connie's POV

My eyes opened to the darkened room and adjust to read the numbers lit up in red on our alarm clock.

"4:47..." I grumbled, rolling over to find the bed empty. I sat up and looked around, "Guy..." I asked softly. There was no reply. I got up heading for the door, tossing my robe on and heading down the stairs. Guy stood at the kitchen counter. I can in wrapping my arms around his waist.

"Hey.." He said smiling a little.

"Hi.." I said, "Why are you dressed?" I asked looking at the bags on the floor.

"Cons, I love you more than life but last night doesn't change the fact that we have some major problems. Not including Charlie, you don't believe in me, you never have... "

"How can you say that?" I asked.

"You proved that when you questioned whether I could get the money to save our son... You should have been behind me...More than that though, You didn't trust me that I'd come back to you..."

"Guy, I didn't have any control over what Charlie did.."

"I'm not blaming you...I'm done with the blaming game.." He said "I'll always come back to you but some changes need to happen first...

"Guy..." I said starting to cry.

"Just believe in me for once...It would make what I have to do so much easier...I'm moving in with Jesse for a while...I'll call you soon.." He said kissing my forehead before heading out the back door. I stared after him. The tears started to stream down my face. What was he talking about, I've been behind him in so many things...I trust him more than I trust anyone, but maybe that was the problem, I don't really trust anyone...

Guy's POV

It was 7am as the guys and myself met at the rink to see how we all looked. I stood on the blue line as the team formerly known as the ducks skated past me. Fulton fell over, Goldberg lagged behind and Charlie was no where in sight. I didn't particularly care if Captain Duck decided to show his face or not but this practice wasn't going according to plan...

Banks and I were the only ones who knew anything about hockey anymore. Tammy still could skate but she'd forgot everything about hockey. Goldberg was standing in the net now,

"That's enough, Big boys don't run..." He said as Banks and I decided to run some drills shooting. That turned out to be a worse idea as everyone was missing goals and falling over each other and to top it all off, Goldberg wasn't catching anything that went it. I sighed, skating off the ice. Banks followed me.

"Guy, they're just rusty..." He said as I nodded,

"Atleast we don't have to win on Saturday...Did you get ahold of that other charity group that was gonna play us..." I asked.

"Yeah, They'll be here..." Banks said looking back at the ice. I couldn't watch anymore as I leaned down.

"Maybe Connie has a reason not to believe in me..." I said taking off my skates.

"It's only the first practice back..." Banks said reassuring me.

"Yeah, I'm heading back to the hospital for a little bit to check on Dillion and see if Connie's there.." I said putting my shoes on and heading up the steps of the arena.

"Call me and tell me how it goes.." I yelled back at Banks as he skated back onto the ice.

"Will do.."

Connie's POV

I had taken a cab to get back to the hospital and found Charlie leaning over Dillion crying.

"Charlie?" I asked.

"Connie, I'm so sorry about yesterday..." He said looking at Dillion. I realized that Charlie wasn't playing any games, he was telling the truth. I crossed the room hugging him as he cried,

"Charlie, I'm sorry too. You gotta let go of this obsession with me..." I said seriously. He shook his head,

"I know, you love Guy..." He said.

"Yes, I do and I'm never gonna leave him..." I said looking to Dillion, "I'm never gonna give up on my family..." I said passing him and sitting with Dillion. Charlie looked on as Guy entered the room behind us.

"What are you doing here?" He asked angerly.

"I was just..."

"Just what, trying to steal my wife again?" Guy asked coming in and letting the door close. I stood up,

"Guy, it's not like that. You know that..." I said stepping between them.

"I know what you think but Charlie on the other hand..." Guy said looking Charlie in the eyes. Charlie backed off,

"Guy I'm not gonna fight with you..."
"Why, scared I'd kick butt?" Guy said challenging him.

"Guy, its not like that, I was coming to apologize..." Charlie said picking up his coat to leave.

"Right, after you forced yourself on my wife yesterday?" Guy asked stopping him from leaving.

"Guy, just let him go.." I said trying to pull Guy away from him.

"No, I wanna hear this. You came to apologize. I wanna hear it..." He said still standing in the way of the door.

"Fine, Guy. I'm sorry, Connie loves you and nothing gonna change that. I really hope my little buddy makes it.." Charlie said beginning to leave again.

"Don't call him that. as far as I'm concerned you're not welcome here or at our house again..."

"Guy!" I said shocked he'd resort to that.

"Fine..." Charlie said finally making it out the door. Guy turned to me as I stared at him.

"You had no right..." I started as he cut me off,

"I had no right, What right did he have kissing you?" He asked looking down at me.

"Guy, he's our friend, he has been since we were 12, Guy please, talk to him..." I said trying to make everything better.

"No, I'm done with him.." Guy said walking past me to sit down with Dillion.

Guy's POV

The room was quiet for what seemed like a lifetime before a Doctor came in to examine Dillion. Connie and I stepped out into the hall, looking at each other.

"Connie, I didn't mean to leave like that this morning.." I said as she face softned,

"I guess I deserved it.." She said sitting down

"Connie, I love you but you gotta talk to me...we have to support each other..." I said coming over to kneel infront of her.

"I do talk to you..." She cried, her eyes tearing up again.

"No, you don't...Trust me, that I'm gonna fix this..." I asked. She stared at me,

"Come to the game.." I said taking her hand.

"Guy, I can't. I haven't played since high school..." She said looking down the hall.

"Just come to support me..." I said facing her towards me again.

"Guy...I don't know.."

"Look, Don't answer me now. Just think about it..." The doctor came back out, looking at us.

"Well, there's no change but every day we wait we risk losing him..." We both looked down.

Connie's POV

The next couple of days passed in a blur, Guy working with the team and me sitting with Dillion as the monitors beeped away. Guy's mom had been up to see Dillion and I had told her about me and Guy,

"Everything will work out if you just believe.." She had said, they were big on faith. I stared down at Dillion and sighed and in that moment I felt like he was asking me what I was still doing here? Why wasn't I with Dad? I pondered this for a minute and then picked up the phone. It rang once before a male voice came on,

"Hello?"

"Can you get that stuff to the arena by morning still..." I asked

"Guy doesn't want my help, and aren't you not suppost to be calling me?"

"Charlie, I don't care. I'm gonna help Guy..." I said shaking my head.

"Well, half the t-shirts are done and the other stuff, but I'll have to work all night to get it done.."

"Do you mind?" I asked. he sighed,

"No...You know I love you Connie..."

"I hope that's in a friend way." I smiled

"I'll be there..." He said before hanging up. I picked up my coat kissing Dillion's forehead before leaving.

Well, the charity hockey game is coming up next, will Guy accept Charlie's help? Will they make enough money? More to come...
