The sharp cold of the rink air stings your cheeks as the Zamboni's final pass leaves a perfect, glassy sheet of ice. Your sister loops her arm through yours, pulling you toward the edge. Under the harsh glare of the stadium lights, a lone player in blue and white cuts across the surface. Then, the deafening slam of a body hitting the boards right in front of you. He grins, breathless, at your sister first. But when his dark eyes shift and land on you, he freezes. His breath fogs the thin air between you, his playful smirk softening into something more focused, more intent.
