and another story might be happening veryy soon that ties in with this one.

This post skips ahead a bit to the end of the season. Enjoy and leave feedback. and i did lose a follower, which is kind of disheartening, so spread the word :) :)

**KRIS'S POV**

April, the month that is, came around in no time. Luckily, we didn't have to fight to make the playoffs this year. On the 2nd of the month, April turnened 21, and the team was planning a party for her at Diesel after the Thrashers game on the 3rd.
As for our relationship, we considered outselves "dating", as much as we could be with the circumstances. April had signed a contract that she wouldn't become "involved" with any of the players. It was nice to know that she cared that much about me that she was risking her career to be with me.
We drove to all the games together, and the game on the third was no exception. Except that night, as we walked into the locker room, Mario was waiting for April, a stern look on his face.
"April," he looked back and forth between the two of us before turning to her, "Ray and I need to speak with you upstairs immediately." With that, he nodded at me and left the room.
I saw the panic on April's face, she knew that he knew about us. She was afraid everything was over.
"Kris...he, he knows." She was shaking, near tears.
"Ape, maybe, I don't know, maybe he wants to talk to you about the playoffs or something." I hugged her, trying to calm her down.
"Yeah. I have to go." She gave me a quick kiss on the cheek before leaving the locker room, waiting to know her future.

**APRIL'S POV**
The elevator ride to Mario and Ray's offices felt longer than it should. I knew from Mario's face in the locker room that he knew. But how? Kris and I always tried to arrive before the others so that few people would see us together. I guess we weren't descreet enough. I arrived at the office door after what seemed like hours and knocked, met by Ray's voice.
"Come in, April"
I took a deep breath and opened the door to see Ray and Mario standing behind the desk looking at a paper. My "uninvolvement" agreement.
"You...you wanted to see me?" I kept my head down, avoiding this at all costs.
"April, we have to discuss a very serious matter with you. You might prefer to sit." Ray motioned to the chair infront of the desk and I flopped into it, still shaking.
"April, you remember the papers you signed when you first joined us, correct?" Mario held the papers up to show me as I knodded.
"One of those papers was an agreement that your relationship with the players would be on a professional basis only. Well, we've heard some rumors, and you're actions as of late confirm them. I'm sure you know what we're meant to do in such situations." Mario looked at me, waiting for my response.
"You...you.." I was choking up, fighting tears. They had to fire me.
"You have to fire me." I continued to keep my head down, which caused me to miss the smile spreading across Mario's face.
"Which is why you should be glad we're not like other bosses."
I looked up confused at him and watched him rip the relationship agreement in half.
"You're free to go April. You have a game to assist with." Mario motioned toward the door and I got up smiling.
"Mario?" I stopped in the doorway to see him and Ray laughing.
"Yes, April?"
"That was NOT funny." I turned and walked out the door, Mario and Ray's laughter behind me.

**KRIS'S POV**
April avoided me throughout the game. Did they fire her? Tell her not to talk to me? I was completely stressed until after the game, when I had to ask her.
"April, you have to tell me everythings ok, I worried the entire game about it." She wasn't facing me while I spoke.
"Kris," she turned and kept her head down while she spoke, "they're fine with it." She looked up at me with a HUGE smile on her face. I picked her up and swung her around before kissing her qucikly.
"God, I love you April" I hugged her close to me.
"Kris, do we haveee to go to Diesel?"
"Yes, why?" She was so excited to go earlier.
"I don't know," she pulled away from me with her face down, "I just thought we could go to my place?"
Her place. I'm no player, but I know what that means. And I wasn't going ot pass it up.
"Well, we'll make the Diesel appearence short." I kissed her again before walking with her to my car, imagining what tonight would hold.
