A Hockey Player's Proposal (Oh Captain, My Captain 2)

Well, color me shocked. “I have to say, I’m very surprised.”

“Well, I only did it with that one guy. Plus, I’m sure my number isn’t even close to your number, captain Ross,” she says with a serious face.

“How do you know what my number is?” I give her a small smile.

She laughs. “Um, hello, you’re Brody Ross. You’ve been named the hottest athlete more than once. Trust me, I know your number is up there.”

She may be right. Though. my number isn’t too bad compared to other players. “Want to guess?”

“Ha, no. I don’t want to guess.” She sips her beer again.

“I’ll make you a bet.” I’m playing with fire, but I see the blush on her cheeks, and I’m wondering how far I can push her. “If you guess my number, I’ll get you tickets in the glass section.” I lean in. “With the rich people.”

“That’s v

ery nice, but I always sit in my seats. Always,” she says firmly. She stands and goes to the sink. I think I’ve hurt her feelings, like the other night. I stand and go to her. She smiles at me.

“Did I offend you with the sex talk? I figure since you’re my stalker, it was okay.”

She giggles and tucks her hair behind her ear. “I’m stalking Miller, remember?”

“That’s right.” I nod. Standing this close to her, I smell the same soft flower scent that she wore yesterday. Her dark hair is shiny, and I keep staring at her dark eyes. An idea pops in my head.

“Why are you staring at me?” She actually steps back from me.

“We’re friends, right?”

“Considering you think I’m a stalker, sure, we’re friends.” She rolls her eyes.

I chuckle. “And you said that you’ve done the friends with benefits before?”

She scrunches her eyebrows together. “Yeah. Where are you going with this?”

“Well, you’re not seeing anyone. I’m definitely not seeing anyone. We’re both friends. So, we could conclude that we should be friends with extra perks.”

She stares at me like I’ve lost my mind. “Are you kidding?”

“I think it’s logical, and we live close to each other. We both understand the situation. It’s perfect.” I smile at her. I really hope that she would go for this idea. I need to get laid, and I wouldn’t mind seeing her naked. Her curves are killing me.

“You thought I was a stalker the other day, and now you want to be my fuck buddy?” She crosses her arms.

“Okay, so I may have jumped to conclusions on the whole stalking thing, but think of the outcome?” I wag my eyebrows at her.

“Brody, I’m not sure what to say. I mean I’m flattered, but-” I cut her off by grabbing the back of her neck and kissing her. Her soft lips turn me on a little bit. I don’t know why I decided to kiss her, but it’s the only way to convince her this is a good idea.

I brush my tongue across her lips. When she opens her mouth, I drive my tongue into her mouth. She moans and pulls herself closer to me. Bonker starts barking at our feet, and she breaks our kiss. She stares at me, wide eyed.

“I’m taking that as a yes,” I whisper against her lips.

She takes a step back. She keeps staring at me. Selene looks around like she’s in a dream. Then I can tell she is thinking about something.

“Selene?”

“Okay, if you want to do this crazy idea, we need some rules.”

“Do you mean like: you bring the wine, I’ll bring the condoms?” I chuckle.

“Oh my God, you’re such a guy,” she mumbles. “That’s not what I mean. I meant like, we can’t get jealous if either one of us stops this and dates someone else. This is a sex-only agreement. We’re not a couple or anything like that. Agreed?”
