Options Chapter 22

So here it is. Thanks for being patient and I hope you enjoy it.

I heard a horn beep outside and I threw on my shoes so I could head out the door. Vero and Kelsey had invited me to go with them to the guys first preseason game. It was the first time that I had seen him play in person in a long time and even though the game itself didn't really matter I was excited. I slid into the back of vero's car and we made our way to Mellon Arena. The girls talked to me about what to expect with the crowds of people and in the locker room. We made it inside the building and found our seats, which were fantastic. I bounced in my seat as we waited for the guys to come on the ice to warm-up. When they finally did I sat on the end of my seat. I couldn't take my eyes off of him as he skated around shooting the puck. I had forgotten how incredibly sexy he looked when he played. I saw Max skating around by the net and he started to look around like he was looking for someone. His eyes finally found mine and he gave me a smile and a nod before he concentrated back on what he was doing. I kind of wished Jordan would do the same but I knew how focused he was on the ice so I wasn't surprised when he never looked up. The game started and from the first puck drop it was intense. By the end of the first period the guys were up two against the devils with Max and Jordan having scored a goal a piece. Between periods we went and got some food at one of the concession stands before we headed back to our seats. I watched the ice as Marc stretched in the goal crease before the puck was dropped.





" Hey Vero.... I wanted to ask her something but I wasn't sure if she would take it the wrong way or not




"Yes he really is as flexible as he seems and yes it is as fun in the bedroom as you would imagine."







I felt my skin turning warm as she pretty much read my mind and they both burst into laughter at my reaction





" Don't worry. You aren't the first girlfriend to ask me about it." she said with a grin





We fininshed watching the game which the guys won easily. I wanted to get down to the locker room to congratulate him on his good game but I was warned that it was probably going to be awhile with the media. We went to a little room that was reserved for families and sat around and waited for the guys to come out. Max was out first he greeted Vero in french and then Kelsey before he turned to me.





" Hey did you see my goal?" he asked




" Yes and it was great. You played really well tonight."




" He opened his mouth to say something but he didn't get the chance. Jordan walked into the room and I went over to him so I could tell him that he also played a great game.




" I scored that goal for you babe." he whispered in my ear as he leaned down to give me a kiss on the cheek



" You know that is incredibly cheesy but sweet." I couldn't help but grin at him



" Let's get going home. I was thinking that we could spend some time alone before we have to leave in a few days."



" Sounds good. Let's go."




Vero was talking to Max and I went over to say goodbye. I promised that we would get together sometime soon and Jordan came over and grabbed my hand and we headed home









Max's Pov









I felt a pang of jealousy course through me when Jordan came out and she went to him without saying anything else to me. I watched out of the corner of my eye as they kissed and whispered to each other. Whatever he said made her smile that gorgeous smile that I wished that she would look at me with. I heard a familiar voice to the side of me and I pasted a fake smile on my face as Vero came over to talk to me.







" Hello Max. You played a good game tonight." She said as she gave my shoulder a squeeze







" Thanks Vero. Marc should be out any minute."



We talked for a few more minutes when Jordan and Melany came over to say goodbye. I tried not to watch her to closely because I didn't want to cause any problems. They took off and I was left alone again with Vero. She studied my face like I had something on it.







" Marc has told me that you don't seem to be yourself, is there anything wrong?" She asked with obvious concern in her voice. Marc was one of my best friends on the team but one of the most irritating things about him was that he told everything to Vero. I considered telling her about my problem but I didn't want to drag someone else into the mess that I had found myself in.







" Nah nothing's wrong. At least nothing that can't be fixed by a good session between the sheets."







Poor Vero just wrinkled her nose at me. She could never understand how I could just hop around from women to women and as a good friend she never had a problem telling me how stupid she thought I was when it came to relationships







" Maxime Talbot you really need to give up those young puckbunnies and find a real women. You are getting to old to act the way that you do." God she sounded just like my mother. Little did she know that I had found a real women. Too bad that I didn't find her first.







I stretched and gave an exagerrated fake yawn.







" I think that I'll be heading home. I'll see you at the next home game."







" Of course. Now drive safe and don't get into any trouble."







I agreed and headed to my car . As I slid into the driver's seat I thought about what I told Vero and decided that what I had told her was true. Maybe a session between the sheets with a hot women would help me with the situation that I was in. In the very least it would provide release and distraction for a little while. I grabbed my phone and opened up my contacts. I knew exactly who to call and I knew that she wouldn't mind that I was calling kind of late. The phone rang a few times before a sleepy voice anwsered.







" Hi Bridgette. It's Max."







" Hi. I was hoping to hear from you when you got back into town." she said sounding more awake







" Yeah, sorry I was busy getting ready for the season."



" No Problem. So are you looking to blow off a little steam?" she asked getting straight to the point



" Yeah if that's okay with you"



" I'll leave the door unlocked."



I didn't have a chance to respond before she hung up. Bridgette was a girl that I had met at diesel the year before and had hooked up with and had exchanged numbers. We usually hooked up at least a couple of times a month, always at her house and I never stayed. Our relationship was strictly about sex and she had no problem with that, or at least she never had indicated that she did. I pulled up in front of the house that she owned and let myself inside. I had never seen it in the daylight but I knew exactly where the bedroom was. I kicked off my shoes and my suit jacket before I headed in that direction. I knocked on the semi-closed door and entered. My body instantly responded when I saw her naked on the bed already waiting for me. She was a beautiful women, all tan skin and dark hair.







" Are you gonna stand there looking or are you going to come here and fuck me?" she asked as her one hand slid between her legs. I was spured into action by the sight before me and it only took what felt like seconds to shed my clothes. I put the condom on that she threw me and I laid myself on top of her. I didn't have to waste anytime with foreplay since she had already gotten herself ready.







" On your hands and knees." I said my voice rough



She did as I asked and I grabbed her hips as I slid into her from behind. Normally I try to make sure that the women that I am with enjoys herself as much as I am but this time I didn't care, this was about getting myself off. Luckily she enjoyed rough sex and the moans were telling me that she was in fact enjoying herself. Her dirty mouth egged me and a little while later I laid on my back in a sweaty satisfied heap. This was the point in the action where I told her how amazing it was, that I would call again soon and get dressed and leave. Instead I turned on my side and looked at the women who lay beside me. I realized that as much as we messed around that I really didn't know anything about her.



" Is there something wrong?" she asked me as I stared at her

" No I just realized that I don't know anything about you."

She looked surprised and I couldn't say that I blamed her.



" What would you like to know?"

" I don't know. Anything I guess."



She started to talk and I found myself enjoying listening to her.



" Would you like to go to dinner with me when we get back into town."

" You mean like a date? Seriously?"

" Yeah."

She beamed me a cute smile and nodded."



" Okay. I'll call you when I get back into town to set something up."

I got up and started to get dressed.



" You don't have to leave if you don't want to." she said with hesitation in her voice.

I stopped buttoning my pants and considered her offer. It had been a long time since I had actually slept with a women and the idea appealed to me. I took my pants back off and slid under the covers next to her. She settled against me and the last thought that I remember having is that even though this wasn't the person that I wanted to have my arms around that it felt nice to have a warm body next to mine
