Offside Yuletide

Some guys have all the luck. I'm one of them. 

My entire life is a happy accident. Did I mean to become a professional hockey player? Nope. I took the scholarship so I could go to Harvard and get my neuroscience degree for free. But, yet here I am playing for the Vancouver Comets. My parents aren't big on the fact that I picked hockey over becoming a doctor, like them. So when an injury starts my Christmas break early, the last place I want to spend it is at home hearing 'I told you so'.

When our team captain invites me to spend the holidays at a cabin in the mountains with his family,  I quickly accept.What he failed to tell me is that his family consists of just his mom. His single mom, Hannah. Hannah is hot, confident, and witty but it's not like I would make a move on my teammate's mom. That's offside, as the refs would say. But my life is a series of happy accidents, remember? So when we accidentally get snowed in together — alone — all I can say is… Oops.
