My Hockey Alpha Chapter 254: My Hockey Alpha

Nina

“Okay,” Enzo said, flashing me a bit of a smile as he sat across from me. “I trust you. And I think I will play some hockey tonight.”

Enzo’s words made my heart leap in my chest. I was so happy that he was willing to play hockey again. Even if the world was going to crumble around us in the next few days, I just wanted to see him happy and doing the one thing that he loved most in the world, even for just a few hours. Things could go back to doom and gloom after that for all I cared; I just wanted these next few hours to be full of smiles and laughter.

We finished eating quickly after that, both too excited to waste any time. I decided to go with Enzo and watch him skate. He didn’t admit it out loud, but I felt as though he didn’t want to let me out of his sight; I didn’t want to let him out of my sight, either. After we finished eating and paid the bill, we walked back to campus and headed straight to the hockey arena.

While Enzo got changed in the locker room, I sat by the rink and studied for my classes. It really did feel as though we were just a couple of normal college students for the first time, and it made me smile — so long as I didn’t think about the Luna or the Crescents.

Enzo eventually came back out into the arena with his uniform on and his helmet under his arm. There was a cheeky grin on his face as he walked up to the bench and put his skates on, and that grin widened when he stepped out onto the ice with his hockey stick.

I couldn’t help but put my books down and watch as he skated.

It was as though he had never stopped playing at all. He moved across the ice so fluidly, so naturally, as though he had been practicing this whole time. The smile on his face never faded for even a second, and as he expertly maneuvered around the rink and flicked the puck into the net time and time again, I found myself leaning on the barrier and watching with tears in my eyes.

At one point, however, Enzo stopped and noticed those tears. His smile dropped and he quickly skated up to me before I could hide the tears.
