Savannah chuckles. “Yeah, she got her wish times two.”

“She loves it. The three of them are best friends.”And probably always will be.

“Where are you from?”

Have I really not told her where I’m from? We’ve had so many conversations late at night. We’ve talked about our favorite foods and colors and our life dreams. She’s told me about her past, but I guess we skipped over my history.

“Minnesota.”

“That’s a long way from home.”

I nod slowly. “It is, and I miss it, but I love hockey more.”

“I bet your family misses you.”

Without thinking, I blurt out, “Would you like to come over and look at some pictures?”

“I can bring our lunch to my place. You can stay the night.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, besides, it’s about time you really met my friends and experienced life as an NHL player’s girlfriend.”

She glances around her living room.

“Only if you’re sure.”

“Of course I am, besides you are staying at my place while I’m out of town. One extra night won’t hurt.”

“I am? I thought that was only for the last away games.”

“No. That’s every time I’m away. If you can’t travel with me, then you are staying in my apartment.”

“Uh, okay.”

She doesn’t sound so sure. Does she not like my apartment?

Someone knocks on the door.

“I’ll get that. You can start packing your bags.”

She gives me a quick kiss before disappearing through her bedroom door.

Chapter Twenty-One

SAVANNAH

Spencer endsthe call as he pushes the shopping cart through the store. “Alright, we are all set to host snacks, drinks, and games at my place. The guys will come over in a little over an hour.”

“Are you nervous they won’t like me?” I ask as I stare at the contents of the shopping cart.

Hell, I’m nervous. What if they don’t like me? Will Spencer have to choose between his friends and me?

He pulls me down yet another board game aisle. “No, why do you ask?”

“Because you’re buying an air hockey table, foosball table, and three board games.”

He glances at the cart and grins. “Maybe I am buying this stuff because I’ve always wanted them.”
