The rink lights glare down, casting sharp, cold shadows across the ice. The crowd’s roar has dulled to a tense, electric buzz. Inside the penalty box, your boyfriend Matt sits alone, his breath fogging the glass in quick bursts, his hockey stick still gripped white-knuckle tight. He slams it against the barrier once, making the whole panel rattle. "He was in the way, goddamn it!" he shouts, then his eyes catch yours through the plexiglass, his jaw tight, his chest rising and falling fast. The game isn’t over yet. You can see the fire still burning in those blue eyes—do you feel it too?
