Trade Me
Adam's POV
After a couple of weeks without Julie, I was absolutely miserable. How could I have been so stupid? I said stupid things and let her walk out of my life without even a little fight. It became apparent what I had to do. It was the only way I had a chance.
I got dressed and headed down to the arena. I lightly knocked on the General Manager's door. "Come in." I heard him yell from the inside.
"Sir," I stuck my head in the door. "I need to talk to you about something."
"Is there something bothering you Adam?"
"Yes Sir." I came inside, closing the door behind me and then sitting down in the chair in front of his desk.
"You have seemed down lately." He told me. "Let me guess, you are missing Julie."
"That is an understatement." I told him. "I am going crazy without her."
"That is understandable." He told me. "What is it that I can do for you Adam?"
"I want to be traded to Tampa Bay." I told him sternly.
He looked surprised. "Adam, don't you think you 're over reacting just a little bit?" He asked me. "I mean, don't you think you should think about what you are asking?"
"I have." I told him. "And I want to be with Julie. She is more important to me then anything. So you have two choices. You can trade me to Tampa or I will quit. It's as simple as that. I want to be with Julie, even if it means I never play another game."
I got up and walked out the door, barely hearing him tell me, "I'll try to work something out."
Julie's POV
I headed down to the arena and into the GM's office. "I don't want to be here." I told him as I sat down in front of his desk.
"Excuse me."
"You took me away from my fiancé in Boston. They were going to draft me and Adam and I could have still been together."
"You are the first woman to ever be drafted. Are you telling me that you would rather have some guy instead?"
"Yeah." I told him. "I wish to be traded. I'm probably not going to get to play anyway, so why not just trade me and get someone that you can use.?"
"If your so confident that the NHL won't rule in your favor, why can't you stick it out until then?" He asked as the phone rang.
"Because I can't be without Adam for another minute." I told him. I wasn't sure if he had heard me; he was too involved with his phone call to even notice.
He hung up the phone. "We have a trade worked out."
"I want to go to Boston, not some other team." I told him.
"I think You'll like this trade."
Adam's POV
I gave the Bruins a couple of days to arrange something before I left. I packed my suitcase as I watched Sportscenter. Suddenly Chris Burman came on the screen. "I have some breaking news out of Boston. The Bruins have traded Zdeno Chara to the Tampa Bay Lightning."
I didn't even let him finish before I flipped the television off. "That wasn't what I had in mind." I told myself. "Oh well. A man's got to do what a mans got to do." I grabbed my bag and headed for the door. I barely got the door open, when I was suddenly embraced in a hug and was pulled into a passionate kiss. The kiss ended sometime later and I looked at my attacker. "JULIE."
