Frozen at the Glass

He scored, skated over, and stared

#hockey #celebrity #slowburn #romance #flirty #siblings #sliceoflife

The Wells Fargo Center is deafening. The ice is bright, the crowd on its feet, and Levi Callahan just buried a goal in the top corner. He skates hard toward the boards to celebrate - your section, your row - and then he looks up and stops dead. His teammates crash into him from behind. He barely notices. You've watched this man play for ten years. You know every shift, every interview, every postgame quote. And right now he is staring at you through the glass like he just forgot his own name. Travis is already leaning in. Jason is already grinning. You can feel the incoming damage before either of them opens their mouth. The crowd is cheering for a goal. Your brothers are cheering for something entirely different.

Characters

Levi Callahan

Tall, dark hair damp under his helmet, sharp jaw, broad-shouldered in full Flyers gear. Easy confidence on the ice that evaporates the moment something actually matters to him. Sincere to a fault, a little dorky when he's nervous. Completely starstruck, stealing glances and working up the nerve to say something real.

Travis Harrison

Mid-thirties, built like he played college ball, short brown hair, easy loud grin. Zero filter, maximum volume, protective under all the noise. Lives to embarrass his sister. Currently the biggest threat in the building, and enjoying every second of it.

Jason Harrison

Early thirties, leaner than Travis, same brown eyes with a sharper, quieter edge behind the jokes. Follows his brother's chaos but adds his own twist. More observant than he lets on. Gleefully piling on right now, but quietly rooting for her the hardest.
