Neon colors danced across the ice as music thumped loudly.
As I skated across the ice, I felt my left shoulder suddenly explode with pain.
I spun around and fell to my right knee.
Remi skated by without looking back.
I wasn’t sure if anyone saw that or not.
I got back to my feet.
I flexed my shoulder.
The lights came on.
Time for the game to begin.
It started normal.
For about two minutes.
Abel and Lay had a great run together.
Abel took a shot.
Save.
The puck came up to the other end of the ice.
Remi got way too close to me at the boards and took a cheap shot, pushing me into the boards.
It looked like accidental contact to everyone since so many players were bunched up.
Then Remi said,“I’m going to fucking kill you.”
We lost the puck and Vegas ended up scoring.
It was a shit goal on a shit play.
Maverick was pissed. “Open your fucking eyes!”
“Make a fucking save!” Remi called back.
“How about you focus on the game?” I asked Remi. “And not your sister’s personal life?”
That’s when I knew I crossed the line.
And I wanted to cross the line.
“Dead,” Remi said.
“Time and place, Remi,” I said. “You don’t know a fucking thing that’s going on.”
“Can we play this game?” Abel asked.
Everything was all out of sorts now.
None of us were focused.
