𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐋𝐔𝐊𝐄 were sat in the girls dorm as the boy was in the middle of a phone call,

"Okay thanks mom," Luke nodded as he had been on the phone for fifteen minutes now,

"Love you too," he added causing the girl who sat next to him smile,

"Yes I'll tell her you say hi," the boy softly rolled his eyes as his mother was clearly talking about Lillian before he hung up.

"What was that about?" Lillian asked as she cocked her head,

"There is a rep from Jersey coming to watch the game tomorrow," the brunette explained still a little shocked by the news,

"That's great!" The blonde let out a cheer as she patted his back,

"He wants me to sign the contract afterwards," the hockey player couldn't help but feel a bit taken aback by it all,

He thought he was going to join the team before the start of next season rather than during the post season playoffs,

"Win or lose," he added as he ran his fingers through his curls,

"What?" The soccer player finally took a moment to process what was being said,

"I leave for Jersey next week," Luke explained leaving the girl with a tough decision,

Did she tell her friend what really went through her mind, or did she act like she thought he probably wanted her to.

"Wow," as all that Lillian could say as she was still shocked,

"I know," the brunette nodded as he pulled the girl into a hug as he didn't know what else to do.

"That's great!" The blonde let out a gasp and it was as though her reaction was delayed,

"It is?" The hockey player asked as he cocked his head looking at the girl curiously,

"Yeah Luke," the soccer player nodded as she tucked her hair behind her ear,

"You get to go play in the NHL!" She added as she forced herself to be excited,

"But I'm leaving you," Luke pointed out as he frowned,

He was showing his true feelings about the matter.

"We both know that FaceTime will become our best friend," Lillian spoke in a duh tone as she wasn't going to give the boy time to miss her,

"And I'll see you during the summer," she added as the group had already decided that they were going to spend Lillian and Ethan's birthday week at the lake house.

"Come watch me in Jersey?" The brunette softly asked as though he was worried that she'd say no,

"Hell yeah!" The blonde excitedly nodded as she sent him a warm smile,

She was trying to be strong for him.

"Can you do me a favour though?" The hockey player realised that since he had gotten through telling her there was now a whole new obstacle, his teammates.
