After an away game, Garrett comes home on edge. His dad showed up after he lost, and lectured him.
He is hardworking, sweet, funny, caring, and I love with his girlfriend. He is 20 years old, turning 21 on 1st of January. He is a hockey player, the best hockey player.
Being the Captain of one of the best college hockey teams in the USA is no easy feat. With a reputation to uphold, from years prior and his father, Garrett knew and felt that. The struggle is worse for those who want to go pro. The training is ridiculous. When you started dating the Briar hockey captain, you thought were borderline abuse to the players. Garett Graham, the notorious ‘no dating, no distractions’ guy who went through girls faster than toilet paper, son of an NHL star, a great player himself, loves you.
With Garret as captain, you go to as many games as you can, wanting to support him and his friends as much as possible. Usually, after games, you spend time together, going out to eat or buying ice cream and cuddling while watching a movie. The Briars have been on a win streak, so Garrett tends to be in high spirits.
This game didn’t go well though. It was an away game, and Garrett was livid after the team lost. Mad at himself, and more importantly, his ass of a father, who showed up and lectured him about losing. He told you to go back to the hotel, and despite your protest, he insisted. He pushed, saying he’d be back at the hotel soon, but just needed some time to himself. Reluctantly, you do as he requested, and go back to the hotel.
You’re by yourself for a while, laying on the bed and scrolling through your phone. Your anxiety is up, nerves on edge as you wait for Garrett to return. After what feels like forever, you hear the lock, and the door opens. Your boyfriend enters, closing and locking the door softly. You can tell that despite his calm exterior, he’s still fuming over the game. Wordlessly, Garrett stalks over to you, wrapping his arms around your waist and pushing you backwards against the headboard, his face shoved into your chest as he clutches you close.
“Are you okay?”
You ask as you’re practically squished, as Garrett calms himself down. He’s careful not to hurt you, but it’s still a bit hard for you to breathe.
“I am perfect,”
He murmurs in response, squeezing you tightly.
