A shout out to Mistylee who's invisible chocolate made this update happen, lol.

I don't know how accurate I'm being here, so please bare with me.


Later that day, after the Ducks were all situated and ready, the team was heading to their press conference. Two limos arrived outside their new homes and the Ducks piled in quickly.

They arrived outside the arena, where they would be playing their first game tonight, and Coach led them to a small stage. The Ducks all got on quickly, each adorning their new Hendrix Skate wear. Charlie was grinning nervously, as were most of the team.

When asked how they felt about representing their country, the team replied, they felt great! Everyone laughed and Charlie caught Julie's eye and grinned. Their Coach was interviewed and soon they heard the mocking voice of the Iceland coach ring out across the stands. The team found out it was none other then Wolf the Dentist Stanson, an old Iceland player.

''Why do they call him the Dentist?'' Ken asked.

Charlie answered ''Because he has the record for knocking out the most teeth ever in the NHL. I heard he punched out his own coach once.''

''I heard he got ran out of the league and the country.'' Julie added.

Ken hurried to catch up with the team as Charlie and Julie stayed, both shaping up the Dentist.

''You worried?'' Charlie asked.

''No. Just hope his team doesn't play like he used to.'' Julie replied.

Charlie nodded in agreement, a slight pang of worry running through him. He didn't care what happened to him, all that mattered was that Julie would be ok.

''Charlie, Julie come on!'' Connie shouted, gesturing for her team mates to hurry up.

Charlie and Julie quickly ran over to the team.


It was their first game against Trinidad, and the Ducks were on fire! Everyone was playing their best game. Well except Jesse.

''Calm down Jesse.'' Charlie warned as his friend threw down his stick for the fifth time that night. ''That kid doesn't know what he's talking about.''

Charlie was referring to the annoying kid in the stands who would not shut up and let the team play. Jesse was getting fed up with him, and Charlie could hardly blame him, he was too.

Coach called them in and Charlie took a seat on the bench next to Julie as Adam took his place.

''Hey Jules.'' he said.

''Hey.'' she said.

''Heck of a game, huh?'' he asked.

''Yea, you're playing pretty well.'' she commented, grinning softly of him.

Charlie grinned and took a gulp of water.

''So, what do you think. Game one?'' he asked.

Julie nodded.

''Yep.'' she said.

Charlie peered more closely at her.

''You ok?'' he wondered.

''Yea, I'm fine.'' she said.

Charlie watched as her eyes drifted over to Goldberg, wincing slightly as the opposite team scored. The Ducks were still ahead, yet Julie still hung her head down.

''Don't worry, Coach will let you play soon.'' Charlie assured her.

Julie glanced up, surprised.

''How did you-''

''It's the look. Just a longing to be on the Ice. To be where he stands.'' Charlie explained.

Julie nodded and smiled.

''I'm glad you understand me Charlie.'' she said, softly.


After the game, the whole team was on a personal high! They won, they had beaten the first team. They were off to a great start!


The next day

Connie and Guy had decided the previous day to go shopping around town. It would be fun. They invited Julie to go along, who was trying to find a nice way to turn them down. She didn't want to be the third wheel. As Connie and Julie waited for Guy, Julie was trying to find the nice way to say no.

Guy walked downstairs with Charlie.

''Hey, hope you don't mind, but I invited Charlie to go.'' Guy said, walking over to kiss his girlfriend.

Julie grinned and waited for Charlie to catch up to her as they followed the couple out.

''Thanks for coming. I would have been stuck all alone with them.'' she said, gesturing to their friends.

''I couldn't let you go through that.'' Charlie said.


As the four teammate headed into town, they passed by Goldberg, Averman, Dwayne, and Jesse who were trying to find a T-shirt for Goldberg's mom.

''So where do you guys wanna go?'' asked Guy.

Everyone shrugged. Where could they go? Every store in this town wouldn't let children in without adult supervision. Connie suggested they head to the Ice Cream stand, and everyone agreed. While Guy ordered, Charlie and Julie found seats.

''So, why did you come?'' Julie asked.

''What do you mean?'' Charlie wondered.

''Did you come to hang out with Connie and Guy or did you come to hang out with me?'' she asked.

'Well, I figured that..that you wouldn't want to be the third wheel...and then..well.'' he replied nervously.

Julie giggled.

''I'm glad you came Charlie.'' she said.

''Really?'' he grinned.

''Yea, you're fun to be around.'' she said.

There was silence for a few seconds as the two friends sat.

''I wonder what's taking them so long.'' Julie said.

Charlie looked over and saw Connie and Guy in full make-out mode.

''Uh I don't think they'll be coming any time soon.'' he said, pointing over to them.

Julie followed his gesture and grinned.

''You wanna ditch them?'' she asked.

''You read my mind.'' Charlie replied.


They decided to take a walk in the park, the only thing they could do that allowed kids!

They walked together down the path, grinning as little kids chased each other around. It was peaceful here.

''You remember being five years old, and the only thing you were worried about was what games you were going to play?'' Julie asked.

''My game was always hockey.'' Charlie told her.

''What made you wanna play?'' Julie asked.

''I was four years old and my grandpa took me to my very first game. I had a blast with him, watching the players and I realized, that's what I wanted to do. We got home and we used a couple of brooms and a lid to play in the house. I think we broke a lamp.''

Julie laughed and Charlie grinned.

''My mom got me into the Peewees a few years later and here I am. What's your story?''

''My brothers were huge hockey fans. I wanted to be like every other girl and like ponies and stickers but I was hockey girl. A first, I sucked and my brother were not afraid to let me know it. Then they put me in goal and the rest is history.''

''Are you brothers big?'' Charlie wondered.

''Uh, Troy is a sophomore and Colin is a senior.'' Julie said.

''Wonderful.'' Charlie commented under his breath.

''What?'' Julie asked.

''Nothing! Just..well have your brothers ever..hurt one of your teammates?'' Charlie asked.

''No, they think hockey should be rough.'' Julie said.

Charlie sighed in relief.

''They always threaten to go after my boyfriends instead.'' she said, chuckling softly.

Charlie joined in her laughter, nervously.


They arrived outside their home away from home and walked up to their rooms.

''I had fun Charlie. We should hang out again soon.'' Julie said.

''Yea, we should.'' Charlie said.

Julie grinned and reached up to kiss his cheek lightly.

''Thanks for a great time.'' she said, softly.

Charlie just nodded as she headed into her room. When the door was closed, he reached up to softly touch where she had kissed him.

His first kiss.
