Upon A Time… .:*・°☆.
“That’s your child too. She didn’t get
that hyper-ness from me, that’s all I know.” I said in return as I began to run
my fingers through my husband’s outrageous hair.
“Hey babe?”
“Hmm?”
“Did you know that Sarah and Scott are
dating?” Corey asked curiously; which caused me to stop running my fingers in
Corey’s hair. I felt his head move a bit, but my eyes were just dead straight
set on the wall because I don’t know if I heard that correctly.
“D-Dating?” I blinked a couple of times.
What the hell has my own best friend
done this time…?
~~~~
“What the hell do you mean dating?” I
asked, my words kind of more stuttering because of this sudden moment.
“Yeah they’ve been dating for a month or
two?”
“WHAT THE FUCK!”
“Hey! Jamila, Chrissy is sleeping, watch
your month.” Corey looked at me, his voice actually stern and serious after my
tone.
“I’m sorry,” I paused, sighing heavily
when I reached over to pick up my phone, “Sorry but, you’re about to have a whole
lot of females in this condo is less than twenty minutes. Also keep Bella in
here, Ashley gets attached rather quickly.” I said, just when I pressed the
three numbers into the ‘WAGS’ group chat – even though Sarah was in it, she’s
going to be hearing a lot from me.
Best friend and Twinny my ass.
***
After sending the message into the group
chat less than 45 minutes ago, we were all currently waiting for Taylor to get
on skype. It had been a while since we’ve all spoken to Taylor since she
finally had been out of the hospital, but now, it’s sad that this had to be
something we all have to come together for. Out of all the things, it just had
to be this.
I was currently pacing around the living room and I can tell
everyone was just tired and annoyed, well it was 2 am in the morning, so that
COULD be a factor as to why everyone was annoyed. But stuff like this happens
all the time with us. Last time it was Kat who needed an emergency lingerie
picking and sadly Skype was surely and definitely not an option. Once Taylor
finally called me on Skype, I was quick to answer.
“Okay
baby boo, what’s so important?”
Taylor implied, not even getting a hello or something.
“Did y’all know Sarah Ho-pants is dating
Scott?” I called out, turning my attention to Sarah, my eyes slightly narrowing
at my best friend. More like former best friend. Hiding shit from me – like who
does that?! Okay back to reality.
“Yes.” Everyone in the room, even Taylor
replied; my mouth gaping in the process.
“How the hell does everyone know but
me????”
Kat rolled her eyes, “Oh my god Jamila,”
She sighed annoyingly while standing up, making her way into my kitchen to get
some champagne. Okay why champagne? Why is she going into my kitchen? How does
she know where I keep my shit? I swear, these ladies are no longer invited to
my house.
“They started dating when Kris and she
called it quits like 8 months ago.” Kat finished, taking out a couple of glasses
for everyone.
“She didn’t say anything because you and
your very strange addiction for goalies, you might try to slit her throat or
something.” Ashley pitched in.
“Also,
you probably might ruin your marriage and family to sleep with Darling to get
back at Sarah.” Taylor thought. My
eyes quickly adverted towards the television screen; my facial expression full
of hate that my own best friend would stoop that low to even say something like
that.
“Can everyone shut up?!” Sarah
whispered, knowing damn well I have a child upstairs who is sleeping and a
husband who is always nosy as hell. “I didn’t want to say anything to you
because you would try to be the fixer and fix Kris and I. Jam, I wasn’t happy
in the relationship when I left for Quantico. When I came back, Kris’ was on my
ass 24/7 after it all and I hated every second of it. I know I fucked up. But the constant reminder of it when we would
get into a fight, made me sick to my stomach. So I called it quits. I went to
Molly’s and had a night to myself. Scott so happened to be there at the same
time, we drank, danced, kissed a little bit, and for once, Jammy, for once, I
was actually happy. Happy being
myself.” Sarah explained to me. Her voice was low, but I felt so bad.
But Sarah was right, I would have become
Dr. Phil in a heartbeat and try to save their relationship as much as I could
but it really wasn’t any of my business when it came to helping relationships
or try to get in between friendships. I tried that before with Taylor and
Heather – and that ended up with me taking pills because they just wouldn’t
leave me the fuck alone.
I sighed. I felt so bad for calling up
everyone into the mix because it was something that I could have called just
Sarah for, and now I feel like an idiot.
“I know what you’re thinking Jams,”
Sarah pouted playfully when she came over to me and wrapped her arms around me,
“You’re not an idiot.” Was all Sarah said just when Kat came into the living
room with champagne glasses and some cookies.
“Now, obviously none of us are going
back home because of Jamila’s stupid ass,” Kat paused, causing everyone to
laugh as she handed out the glasses “We are gonna drink some of this lovely
expensive shit that she had in her kitchen and just sleep. Oh and also pregame
because the Cup’s coming to Chicago bitches!!!” Kat cheered, causing all of us
to get excited and cheer as well.
“JAMMY!”
“MOMMY!”
“Sorry babes!” I giggled softly while
downing the rest of my drink in the process.
~~~ Game
Six ~~~
Today’s the day. Today’s the day I
finally get to experience my team win another Cup. Ending the reign tonight,
especially since my hometown boys were screwed last year, but I’ll be damned if
I let that crap happen again tonight. I didn’t want anything to pass by tonight
and I just wanted today to be filled with cheers and nothing more.
Today,
Christina was able to see her dad start tonight after so long and she just
couldn’t be happier; wearing her dad’s jersey, chanting his name as she
stumbled into the locker room, and just the looks itself from the guys and
Coach Q, they were lucky that the kids were here. It was something more of a
family reunion because today was extremely a special day and nothing was going
to stop these guys from lifting Lord Stanley tonight.
As the guys prepared for their game,
Christina decided to take it upon herself to stand in the middle of the locker
room, it was something that she loved doing for games, but according to Chrissy
this morning, ‘Today was a special one’.
“Hello! Attention, pay attention to me!”
Christina called out, which caused Coach Q to tell everyone to stop talking and
listen up. “I’m sorry for, for uh bothering you. But today, is silver first
place day. I would like to say, thank you Q for letting my daddy play. Uncle
Sad (Saad. Poor think still can’t say his name right) stay out of the no-no box,
Hoss, you show, you show them who is the Boss and Star (Kaner, this is what
happens when she watches SpongeBob before bed)… it’s officially Showtime!”
Christina cheered, jumping happily on her toes as she ran over to Corey and me,
quickly hopping on my lap to hide her face.
“Awe, Chrissy that was so good!” Kat
said, poking her nose. Then all of the other compliments from everyone in the
WAGS’ group, the kids and even the teammates as well.
It was just a stressful day, I barley
slept last night because Corey was just tossing and turning all night because
he was that nervous. I was there when he won the cup the first time, but I
wasn’t his…. Well yet anyway. Tonight he’s very anxious to even go to this game
tonight. This is the first time he’s going to be playing in front of his wife
and kid. Corey was nervous and I can sense it, mostly because he never held my
hand as tightly as he did – I didn’t even hold his hand that tight when I was
giving birth, so that says something. That says a lot.
After the ladies and
kiddos gave their men a good luck kiss, we headed off to our seats. We were all
lucky enough to get seats a couple seats behind the Hawks bench and it was
great, some were bothered that the family reserved seats for that particular
section, but they had to deal with it.
~~~ No POV
~~~
Second period and the game is still, unfortunately
scoreless. Everyone in the family rows was extremely antsy. Some were standing;
others were bouncing on their seats. Kids were getting impatient and the ladies
were all getting annoyed. Kat, Ashley, Jamila and Sarah were all holding hands
at this point. The original women didn’t want anything more than to slap some
senses into their men. Crawford was doing practically fine.
Well, according to
Jamila of course. Every stop Corey made, Jamila let out a small whimper. Letting
out a soft prayer every time, hoping he didn’t pull something. Jamila has been
there for every other injury Corey has sustained and she just couldn’t bear to
see it happen, especially on a night like this.
“There’s 3 minutes left into the period and
no one has scored yet! I swear, if this crap ends in overtime I’m going to hurt
somebody.” Kat said while drinking her water.
Everyone around us all agreed. It was
obvious that everything was just pins and needles at this point and no one
wanted this shit to end in Game 7. Even though extended playoffs is great, but
we don’t have the time of day for that. And plus, no one wants to go back to
Tampa with their disrespectful ass fans and disrespectful ass security.
The guys were finally down in Tampa’s
zone, Kane passed the puck to Keith – he shoots and misses. But that didn’t
stop him from picking up the rebounding and shooting again – SCORE! The all too
familiar horn off, Chelsea Dagger began ringing through the Madhouse and it was
just… a delightful feeling. Knowing and seeing the boys doing something. Next, Just 09.4 seconds left
and Seabs shot, that ‘Ping!’ sound causing all of us to get excited and groan
all over again. Everyone in the crowd was on their feet – it was draining.
“Fucking post!” Sarah called out, but
quickly covered her mouth when Chrissy looked up at her aunty “Sorry sweetie.”
Finally the buzzer ends to the signal
that the period was over. Just 20 more minutes… 20 more never ending minutes
left. At the start of the third period, it was still 1-0. It feels like this
was going to be a long 1 to nothing game. The girls hated the fact that any
second now, the score could be tied and everyone in the arena is going to be
upset – most likely extremely disgusting. Especially since they know that the guys’
families are just sitting here in the crowd.
We all looked up at the clock ‘5:17’ it read. All eyes were on Tampa’s
zone and once everyone stood up, not even three seconds later, the buzzer goes
off and we see that Kane made the goal.
“That’s my baby!” Kat yelled, everyone
celebrating and Chrissy getting excited in the process.
“Showtime!!!” Chrissy cheered, her
little arms raised in the air as we all sang to the goal song.
It warmed Jamila’s heart that Christina
was getting excited and getting so used to this wonderful and special moment. Especially
seeing her dad, numerous of uncles in action on this special night. Nothing like
this will ever top this moment. But once the guys were in the Hawks zone,
Jamila was already on her feet. Looking at the defense and the way the opposing
team would gather, it freaked her out more. Just 3:23 left on the clock. Once Corey
made that one handed save, she breathed, sitting back down in her chair and
covering her eyes instantly.
“Mommy, daddy did well. Its okay, no sad
faces.” Chrissy told her mother, patting her back with a smile on her face and eating
her hotdog.
Once it was just 5 seconds left on the
clock, everyone was standing up, on their feet and counting down until the
clock struck 00:00 and read FINAL. This is it. Hawks win! Hawks win it all in 4
games! Just – star struck, there were no sad faces in that crowd, well maybe
with the Tampa fans, but they really don’t matter at this current moment. All the
emotions that are running through every single fan right now are remarkable. Seeing
the guys cheering and having a blast on the ice made the girl’s heart swell.
But there’s one thing for sure,
practically everyone is getting laid tonight.
~~~ May 3rd,
2017; My POV ~~~
Today… it feels weird. The boys were eliminated
after the first round, and I was… disappointed, we all were. Hell, when I got
on twitter, there was trade Crawford, Kane, Keith etc. tweets all over the
place. As a wife, it bothered me. It shouldn’t, but it really did. I hate when
people treat my man like shit when he really isn’t all to blame for any of this
crap. The guys all basically got ripped a new asshole after round one. But I’ve
been taking Christina to home games for the Rangers because a bitch ain’t got time
to be going to Canada. But I would in a heartbeat of their PM ever go to a
game, you know??
Sarah and Scott got married shortly
after the guys won the cup. It was a cute ceremony, they even had Lord Stanley
there at the wedding as well. But now, times are going to be extremely
difficult because of Scott being traded, all the girls are gonna have to find a
way to get together with Sarah eventually. Kat and Patrick finally got married
as well after the cup too and let me tell you, it was just ridiculous but in
the best way possible. They should’ve had a double wedding.
Taylor had her daughter and named her
Rachel. I understood the meaning behind the name, everyone did. We were all
present during the birth, even the Kings made it, which was wild. Everyone started
spewing out awful names, but Taylor and Dustin has already thought about her
name once they found out the sex of their baby.
Ashley and Toews …. Oh man,
when it was their day with the Cup, Toews proposed to her, it was so cheesy. He
told her to look inside the Cup and her reaction was priceless. He got down on
one knee, told her to look and boom, she screamed and cried in the process, we all
knew he was gonna do it and when she called us, we knew it had happened.
As of now, they’ve been engaged for two
years and it’s a wonderful feeling knowing that my best friends are all happy. It
warms my heart every time and I never want this friendship to end.
I was currently in the bathroom. Just waiting
and waiting for this stupid thing to finish. It was just 30 seconds left until
it was. I looked down at the thing and I couldn’t help but cry. I knew I wasn’t
going nuts. I’m just so happy – minus the crap the guys made up go through, I just
hope this was the icing on the cake to make up for it all.
I walked out of the bathroom, just to
find my friends, husband and daughter all looking at me.
“So?!” Kat exclaimed.
“Come on Jam!” Sarah groaned
impatiently.
“Jams I swear, if you don’t say
anything, I’m gonna slap you.” Ashley glared at me playfully.
“Baby boo, just say it!” Taylor grumbled.
Seeing her daughter Rachel and Christina
playing together, it made my heart grow instantly. I’m so happy that Christina
can finally get to have that.
“I’m pregnant!” I cheered out, watching
as everyone got excited, Corey already walking over towards me and giving me
the biggest hug ever.
“I love you so much.” Corey whispered as
his lips touched mine softly.
“I love you too Corey, so, so much.” I
cried, hugging my husband without hesitation.
