A drunken promotional after party involving unlimited vodka, several social media influencers, puck bunnies for miles, and the goalie from an opposing team, leads to a massive mistake.
No, not a surprise pregnancy. I was drunk but not that drunk.
No, this mistake was worse because even months later, I can't get it out of my head and it's effecting my performance. My coaches are on my case because I'm dragging ass on the ice. My friends are all worried because I holed up in my hometown for the entire off season.
There's only one thing to do, and there's only one person who can help me. Juniper. My best friend and the social media manager for the IceCaps.
Sure, she'll give me her disappointed face. That sighed, "Dammit, Ludo," that I've heard at least once a month since we were fourteen. But in the end she'll help me, because she's my June Bug and she wants me to be happy.
I just needed her to commit to my schemes before I had to face "The Norse God" on the damn ice again and all my carefully controlled mistakes spiral out of control.
