Chapter 17
My phone rang as I was driving home and since when I am in the car my phone is always on hands free I answered it. I did not recognise the number so I answered politely in case it was a business call.
“Good afternoon, Gill Robertson speaking.”
“Hey Gill, it is Vero, how are you?”
“Hey V, I am good thanks, how are you? I am just heading home if you fancy coming over.”
“I am fine thanks. Yeah that would be good. I was just calling to ask if you fancied meeting tomorrow after you finish work, I thought we could all go out for a bite to eat and then watch the game.
“Sounds good to me, you want to just tell everyone to meet at the office and we can go somewhere from there?”
“OK, can I get Lorna’s phone number and I will ask her if she wants to come?”
I gave her Lorna’s phone number and Vero said she would phone the girls and then head round to mine for a bit so I said I would heat up some pasta and sauce for us.
About an hour later Vero appeared at the door with flowers and a bottle of wine.
“Aww, thank you Vero, you are an angel.”
“A lot of the girls have gone out on the town tonight, they usually do when they guys are away but I don’t want to be tarred with the same brush as them.” Vero tells me as she follows me to the kitchen.
“Are they not faithful to the guys?”
“Most of them are but a few of them are just puck bunnies, they are out for all they can get and I am not like that. I have known Marc all my life and I love him more than words can explain. I can see that you too are genuine and I can trust you, I think me and you will make a good team.” Vero smiles and gives me a big hug.
“You are a good lass Vero, I too think we will make a good team.”
The conversation continues about many things when Vero asks:
“Do you know why the guys had to go into the Mellon before they got the bus today? Marc said it was some sort of strange surprise for them, did TK say anything? I have not spoken to Marc since he left the house and he probably won’t call until later tonight.”
“Ha, no he never said anything but I have known for a couple of days what the plan was.
“Ray phoned me the other day when I was at work and he told me that an unnamed source told him that I am a qualified kung fu instructor. He then continued to ask if I would do some training with the guys. Eventually I agreed but for some reason he did not want me to mention to anyone.”
“Wow, so do you have like a black belt and stuff? Did the guys enjoy it?”
“They actually seemed to have a great time, they especially liked me using TK as a volunteer for self defence and getting him on the ground with little or no effort but I have told them that they cannot pick on him every week, they will all take it in turns to be my volunteer. Oh and yes I have a black belt.”
We carried on talking, getting to know each other better when she said she better go home and that she would see me the next day.
“Goodnight Vero, see you tomorrow.”
I spoke to Tyler briefly on the phone before settling down for a good nights sleep.
“Good afternoon, Gill Robertson speaking.”
“Hey Gill, it is Vero, how are you?”
“Hey V, I am good thanks, how are you? I am just heading home if you fancy coming over.”

Info.
Hey everyone.
I will not manage to get another post up until the end of the week, my story is saved on my laptop which my husband has taken away with him on a business trip so I promise when he returns I will post the next chapter. I hope you are all continuing to enjoy the story.
So I am loving the fact that the Pens are still in the playoffs, game 7 was amazing!! I know they can do well against the Canes too.
Well, on another note, I was made redundant a couple of weeks ago but have managed to find a new job really quickly and start next week so I am very excited about the new challenge, I am going to be working in the insurance industry so it is something completely different to what I have been doing in the past. Fingers crossed that it all goes well, I have a good feeling about it.
So thanks again everyone for your continued support in my writing, I appreciate it. Please remember to leave comments, good or bad, I love hearing your feedback.

Chapter 15
“Oh Gill” He puts his arms around me so tightly sobbing into my shoulder. “I love you too, I really do and I wanted to tell you but I didn’t want to push you away, Oh Gill hunny you have no idea how much this means to me. I love you so much.”
We sat talking for a while longer about our confessions until we eventually settled down to sleep.
‘I can’t believe how fast this is going I really hope I am doing the right thing.’
Once again I woke up before TK so before I woke him up for him to come for a run with me I got changed into my running gear and put all of my kung fu equipment and clothing into the car as to not initiate any questions from TK later.
When I got back to the bedroom Tyler was lying awake with tears running down his face and he was sobbing like a child.
I sat down beside him and wiped away his tears.
“What is wrong hunny?” I ask as I lean down and kiss his forehead.
“I got scared when I woke up and you were not there. I thought maybe you regretted last night.”
“Will you please look at me Tyler” He sits up leaning against the headboard.
I put my hands on his face wiping away his tears with my thumbs.
“I am not in the habit of telling every guy I meet that I love them. To me love is a very important thing and not just a word that can be used casually. I meant what I said, I love you and want you in my life, don’t ever forget that.”
I leaned in and kissed him deeply, my tongue gently massaging his, the taste of salt coming from his tears. I pull away still holding his face and tell him again that I love him.
“I love you too Gill I guess like you I am just scared. I have never been in love before and I just want to do it right.”
“Stop worrying and just go with the flow. I think we should both stop being scared and just help each other and take each day as it comes.”
Tyler eventually got up and I went for my morning run with him, I again went for a quick shower before heading for the pool. “Are you coming for a swim Tyler?”
“Yeah I suppose so.”
I swam my usual 100 lengths with Tyler stopping at around 50 and just messing about until I finished.
“Wow Gill I think you are fitter than me and that is not allowed, I am a professional hockey player.” He jokes as he puts his arms around me.
Tyler and I begin kissing deeply before things get carried away.
‘We fit together so well as if our bodies were made to be one’.
We eventually leave the pool after having some 'fun' in the pool and head for a shower and fix up some breakfast spending the next few hours together before I got ready to head to the Mellon.
“Right TK, I have to go now. When do you get back from Toronto?”
“We are coming back on Friday night before heading to Sweden on Monday, I really wish you could come with me?” Tyler stands holding me close to him.
“You will be too busy having fun to think about me, I have plenty of work to be getting on with here and will be here waiting for you when you get back.
“Oh and I forget to tell you, my next business trip is in November to Detroit and I was checking your schedule that you put on my fridge and you are there at the same time so I will try and get a ticket for the game. I have booked my hotel and flights so I will give you a copy of my agenda when you get back. Just come here again on Friday when you get back from Toronto.”
We said our goodbyes and thankfully there were no questions as to where I was going.
