Hayes makes a few gagging noises before coughing out the word, “Simp.”

Unoffended, Riggs fires back, “I’ve finally got to this place with the girl I’ve always wanted, just let me enjoy it.”

“I’ve watched it a few times. The last season left off on a major cliffy,” Fallyn chimes in while eating her chicken sandwich.

“I’m dying to know if she said yes to Axel’s proposal. I’ve scoured the internet and haven’t been able to find anything about it. In fact, it seems like Bebe dropped off the face of the earth.”

A lump forms in my throat, making it impossible to swallow.

“I heard that she’s in rehab or resting, or something like that,” Carina adds.

Ford raises his brows. “Wait a minute…you watch the show, too?”

With a smile, she shrugs. “You don’t know everything about me.”

“Bet?” The heat that ignites in his eyes gives him more of a predatory look. “Pretty sure I know you inside and out.”

She knocks her shoulder into his. “Shut up.”

“I really hope she tells him to take a hike.” Stella scrunches her nose as she pops a fry into her mouth. “I don’t like the guy at all. He seems like a douche.”

Surprised by her comment and the distaste woven through it, the question shoots out before I can stop it. “You really think so?”

She nods as if they’re personally acquainted. “Definitely. He’s so arrogant.”

A smirk settles on Maverick’s lips as he jerks his head toward Colby. “So is that guy, but I wouldn’t call him a douche.” There’s a pause. “Most of the time.”

“You’re hilarious, McKinnon,” Colby responds good-naturedly. “Watch yourself on the ice. You never know when you’re going to get knocked on your ass.”

Maverick flashes a dazzling smile. “I’ll dust you every time, old man.”

Colby snorts before snagging a fry from Bridger’s plate and tossing it at the younger player.

“Hey, I was going to eat that,” Bridger complains. “Grab someone else’s food.”

“Anyway…” Stella glares at the guys who interrupted our conversation. “I think she can do way better. Axel seems more concerned with how he looks and the labels he’s wearing than with her.”

The comment hits me like a punch to the gut. I’ve secretly thought the same thing before but when I mentioned my suspicions to Mom, she waved them away. She’d tell me that people loved us together and that I shouldn’t mess with a good thing.

“When does the next season of the show start?” Viola asks. “I’ll have to check it out.”

“We should have a girls’ night in and binge the last season,” Juliette says. “It would be kind of nice to chill out. We can order pizza and make spicy margaritas.”

“Ohhh, that sounds good,” Carina says, warming to the idea. “I’m definitely down for that.”

I can’t imagine what it would be like to watch the show with them. Even though I’ve altered my appearance, I’d be sitting on pins and needles the entire time.

It’s a nightmare scenario.

“What about you, Britt?” Stella asks with a tilt of her head. “Are you in?”

I shift, wishing there was a way to skirt the issue. The last thing I want to do is push them away or make them think I’m not interested in getting to know them on a deeper level. “Oh. Um…I’ll have to check my schedule and get back to you.”

Colby turns and stares at me. I can practically feel the heat of his gaze singeing my flesh.

“No time to hang with the girls?”

“I’m not saying that. I just need to check and see what’s going on.” I force a tight smile.

It’s a relief when Wolf clears his throat, and everyone turns their attention to the tatted-up goalie. “Fallyn and I were thinking of flying to Vegas for the weekend.” The expression on his face belies the casualness of the comment.

“Why?” Hayes says with a laugh. “Have you two decided to get hitched by Elvis?”

The couple glances at each other before exchanging secret smiles.

Silence crashes over the table as Bridger exclaims, “Holy shit, you’re getting married?”

“No fucking way!” Steele says.

“Fallyn?” Carina gasps, looking wide-eyed. “Is that what’s going on? Are you two eloping?”

A grin spreads across Fallyn’s face, making it look like she’s glowing from the inside out as Wolf tugs her close, wrapping her up in his brawny arms.

“That’s the plan.”

A dozen voices erupt around us. Questions and comments are fired off furiously.

Wolf’s gaze stays locked on Fallyn. “I’ve been waiting for this girl to get with the program for years. Now that she has, I’m unwilling to wait another minute before making her my wife.”

Viola is the first to jump up and throw her arms around her cousin. Carina, Juliette, and Stella all follow suit, congratulating the couple.

I can’t help but watch Wolf as he stares at his wife-to-be. I’ve never seen any man look at his girlfriend the way he does. Although, the other guys aren’t far behind. But there’s something about Wolf…
