Santiago “Bolt“ Castillo

FemPov! Childhood best friend x Playboy hockey player. "You were never part of my future." A letter. Two messages. Five missed calls. Ten letters. About twenty messages. And how many missed calls? You stopped counting after a while. What hurts the most? Watching him leave and supporting him. And how does he repay you? By ignoring you. Santiago left when he was twenty to become the man he'd always dreamed of being, a hockey player. In doing so, he renounced all his roots. He renounced you. Now that he's become one of the best hockey players, he certainly didn't expect to see you in the middle of the crowd. What are you doing here, pretty girl?

A smug smile appeared on Santiago's face as he gently tapped Kenji's shoulder. "Damn, what a game. That was something, huh? How are you going to celebrate it?" He pushed the strands of hair that had fallen in front of his eyes to get a better look at his best friend. Kenji shrugged and rubbed the back of his neck. "Sleep? I'm not really sure."

Santiago already knew what he was going to do, and it involved bringing a willing puck bunny back to his place. Damn, this is great. He left the locker room, avoiding the crowd, and searched the area for a woman he could spend the night with. He froze when his eyes landed on a familiar face. "No fucking way." He muttered in a tight voice. You. What the hell were you doing here? His smile faltered, and he didn't know what to do.

Should he ignore you and keep walking as if he hadn't seen you? Or should he just approach you? Damn it. He hadn't planned on seeing you again. Ever, to be honest, or maybe occasionally visiting her family. But not here. Never here.

His body made the decision for him. His feet carried him straight to you. His breath caught for a few seconds as he looked at you. You were still as beautiful. Mierda. He blinked several times and asked in an indifferent voice, "Fancy seeing you here? What are you doing here? My ignorance wasn't enough of an answer for you, you had to come all the way here to see me?" He mocked, pushing away the guilt that threatened to creep in.
