fourteen.

Following that Wednesday (june 27) that Kay met Sid's parents, Kay and Sid spent every moment they could together; they were rarely seen apart from one another. She would go to a lot of his practices just because she loved being in the rink, and when they weren't at a rink and Sid wasn't at a gym, they were at each other's houses or out having a good time. They were best friends but they were most definitely in love, even though they hadn't told each other that yet.

It was now Wednesday July 11, and Sid had something planned. He called Kay that evening asking if she wanted to go to a drive in movie to see Miracle. Of course, she said she would and Sid picked her up at 7 for the 7:40 movie. It was outside the city in a rural area so it was about a 30 minute drive. The whole way there, her and Sid chatted about random stuff, and soon enough they pulled into the open field with the big screen. There weren't that many people but there were some. Sid parked the car and put his arm around Kay. She rested her head on his shoulder.
"thanks for taking me to this" Kay thanked him once again, trying to talk quietly so she wouldn't disturb the peace.
"You're welcome, babe." Sid smiled. Kay looked up at him.
"Sid?"
"hmm"
"i really like it when you call me babe" Kay whispered.
"Really?" he raised his eyebrows and pecked her on the lips. "well that's why i do it... babe."
They both smiled.
"When does training camp start?" Kay asked, switching the subject.
"August 4"
"aww" Kay frowned, "then i'm really going to have to share you"
Sid laughed, "yeah but we still have like 20 days so let's enjoy them." He leaned down and kissed her sweetly on the lips. Kay smiled into his lips.
"mm i'd like that."
They continued kissing for a while. They had seen Miracle before so it's not like they were missing anything. They only broke apart because there was something on Sid's mind.
"Kay can i ask you something?" He asked, seeming kind of hesitant. Kay furrowed her eyebrow.
"anything" she replied.
"well, not like i was planning on doing this anytime soon... cause if you don't want to we really don't have to... ever. i don't care. I just want to be with you. I'm not just in it for that." He said, trying to get to the point but having some trouble. Kay smiled as he rambled on.
"Sid, what is it?" she stopped him and he looked into her eyes.
"ok. have you ever.. ya know. are you a virgin still?" He finally asked.
"yeah... i never really had a real relationship until you, so it was never the right time." She answered. Sid felt relieved to finally get that out there. "Are you?" Kay asked, knowing he probably wasn't.
"No, i had this girlfriend back in Rimouski when i was 16.. almost 17." He could see Kay's face. She hated the thought of him with anyone else. "but i'm with you now, and that's the only place i wanna be." he assured. Kay perked up a little. He brushed the strand of hair out of her face and pressed his lips to hers. She ran her hand over his cheek and leaned on him. He always said the right stuff at the right time.
When the movie ended, Sid drove Kay home and they said goodnight, like always. Kay felt relieved that Sid brought up the subject, and Sid was glad he finally got it off his chest. They were just that much closer now.


July 13, 2005

On Thursday, Sid couldn't do anything with Kay because he had to do stuff with RBK all day, but Kay totally understood. When he got home around 9:30, he called her and they talked for a long time on the phone. He apologized a million times for not being able to see her. However, Sid had an idea that would make up for it. He had been thinking about their relationship and realized that they told everything to each other, except for one thing. The three most important words in a relationship; i love you. On Wednesday night when they were at the drive in, it felt so right. Sid knew exactly what he wanted to say. It was about time to say it, and both of them knew it.
So tonight, Sid had something planned. He called Kay as soon as he got back from the gym at 10.
"Hey stud" Kay answered her phone as she rolled around in bed.
"Hi, how are you on this fine morning?" he smiled
Kay laughed, "I'm good Mr. Crosby."
"Good. Cause tonight i'm taking you somewhere." He said, not being able to contain is excitement any longer.
"oh god." Kay laughed. "kid napping me again?"
"yep." he responded. "I'll pick you up at 9."
"Nine?!" Kay questioned.
"yes nine."
"what are we gonna do at nine?" She said suspiciously.
"Babe, it's the middle of summer AND it's a Friday. People don't even go to bed anymore... except you."
This made Kay laugh. "I need my beauty sleep."
"You are always beautiful, even without sleep. Now, i have to go, but i'll see you tonight. Be prepared." He said in a mischievous tone.
"oh i'm prepared. bring it."
Sid chuckled, "oh i will". He hung up the phone and Kay just shook her head and laughed to herself. She walked into her bathroom, and turned on the shower to get ready for the day.

Later that night, she ate dinner at 6 with the rest of the family and informed them of her plans. When she was done helping her mom with the kitchen, she went up to her room and finished getting ready. She had decided on wearing a dress, since Sid loved when she wore dresses. It was a red one from Victoria's Secret that she bought a couple weeks back, but never wore.
She was standing in the mirror checking to make sure everything was ok when the doorbell rang. "I got it!" Kay yelled and made her way down the stairs. She opened the door, stepping outside, and turning to face Sid.
"I'm doing everything i can to hold myself back right now" he stated with a completely straight face. Kay couldn't help but laugh.
"Come on" she said, taking his hand and going to the car he brought. "Sid when are you gonna get a car of your own?" she asked as he opened the door for her.
"i don't know... when i start making money?" he walked around to the other side and got in.
"good point" Kay chuckled.
They made their way toward downtown, but they didn't go into the city. They started going up winding hills and Kay recognized it right away.
"i think i know where we're going!" She said, getting excited.
"do you?" Sid tried being secretive.
"yes!" She looked out the window like a little kid. Sid just laughed. They finally pulled up in the same spot Sid took her a while back. Mount Washington. Kay couldn't stop smiling. She leaned over and gave him a huge kiss on the cheek.
"Come on" she got out of the car and stood at the edge of the hill, staring out at the city. Sid stood beside her and took her hand.
"remember this?" he smiled
"yes i remember it." She said, giving him a kiss on the lips. He led her back to the car and they sat on the hood of it. They sat in silence for a few moments, taking in the view.
"You look amazing tonight" Sid broke the silence. Kay turned to see Sid looking at her as she was looking at the city, and she blushed.
"thanks" She smiled and moved over closer to him.
"it's a little windy up here" he stated, taking off his navy blue reebok sweat shirt and giving it to her before she could argue. She slipped it on over her head. She loved the way he smelled. He put his arm around her, pulling her closer. She layed back, resting her head in his lap and looking up at the stars.
"I brought you here cause i really wanna tell you something." Sid began. Kay now concentrated all her attention on him. Sid took a deep breathe and continued, "Kay, when i'm with you it's the best feeling ever. Better than scoring the game winning goal in triple overtime or something like that." He smiled and looked out over the city, obviously nervous because he usually looks her right in the eyes. Kay softly laughed at the statement. Sid made eye contact and went on. "i hope you know, i would do anything for you. I wanna be there for you."
Kay nodded.
"Anyway... i love you.." he said looking down at her. Her smile grew wider as she looked up into his hazel eyes. She tugged on his shirt and pulled him down to her. They both smiled as they kissed each other, and Kay sat up for more control, without breaking the kiss. She pressed her hand against his chest and pushed him back so that they were both laying against the windshield. They finally broke apart, their faces still close.
"i love you too"
