And then ca the next day. The Big Ga everyone had been waiting for.
The lights dimd, and the whole arena buzzed with noise.
Banners and neon cardboard signs filled the stands, glitter kept catching the fluorescent lights.
Everywhere I turned, girls were holding up giant posters.
"I ❤️ You Dominic Vale "
"Ian Han = Hockey 👑 "
"Marry , Jasper & Casper Covey💍💗!"
The whole place shook with the sound of stomping feet and echoing cheers.
"Ladies and Gentlen!" the announcer’s voice bood through the speakers. "Welco to the night you’ve all been waiting for...the faceoff between the Blackwell Falcons...."
A roar of Fal-cons! filled the air, fans slapping the railings chanting "Fal-cons! Fal-cons!"
"Versus the Estrella Wolves!"
The opposite bleachers howled like... well, wolves.
This was my first ti coming to a ga. It all looked strange to .
Beside , June was already on her feet, cupping her hands around her mouth and screaming, "Let’s go falcons. Eat the wolves alive!" like she’d been rehearsing it for weeks.
I laughed, I started feeling nervous as I looked down at the ice.
The cheerleaders lined behind the boards, shaking their pompous, bouncing their ponytails as they launched into a routine dance.
"Give an F!"
"F!"
"Give an A!"
"A!"
The routine ended with the Falcons mascot...a guy in a giant bird suit flapping his wings dramatically while kids in the crowd mimicked him.
I slouched in the chair, tugging the scarf June gave yesterday to hide the fading hickeys.
My pulse wouldn’t calm down. Because this wasn’t just a ga. This was his ga.
Dominic’s.
Then ca the mont everyone was waiting for.
The Falcons glided onto the ice one by one,
in their black and gold jerseys, helts gleaming under the arena lights.
The announcer called their nas as the spotlight hit each of them.
"NumberSeven! Our defensive wall, the man who doesn’t let a puck past him....IANNNHAN!"
He bowed to the crowds.
Girls in the stands shrieked, so holding glittery poster boards with "MARRY , IAN!" and "BLOCK LIKE YOU BLOCK SHOTS
