[Probably safe to assume that no one on the team besides maybe Chuck Hansen really cares that the cup presentation is being delayed because everyone in the building is more preoccupied with watching the game's hero and his lady love (and no one listens to Chuck because all he ever does is bitch). Raleigh swoops in to kiss her again, before he skates off. Listens to the commissioner talk about the season, about the team, about them, about what happened tonight, about his brother too actually and for the first time in a long time, that doesn't do anything but bring a smile to Raleigh's face.
He's not the team captain, so he's not the first to lift the cup. But he is the second and it's everything he thought it would be. Heavy and awesome and he does he lap with it held high but he finds it so easy to pass off onto the next person, because letting go of it means that he can skate off to do what he wants.
Which is hang as close to Mako as he can get between his pads and jersey and the fact that he's in desperate need of a shower.]
[ ...Becket musk. That's quite special. The cameras, like the crowd, had gone wild, and she'll be expecting some raving reviews of the game in the morning, but Mako's eyes were on the team, on him, because this moment in time is when things change, when they've finally gotten the championship and what a morale booster that is.
They're going to have to train harder to hold on to the title, but that can wait. Tonight, even her father looks pleased (somewhat, but Mako can read him well enough to know when he's proud of them), and so when Raleigh comes up beside her, she smiles briefly and squeezes his hand. ]
[She could bottle the Becket musk and make millions. Just saying.
Raleigh twists his hand in her grip, just so he can thread their fingers together. He's a little surprised that he's still able to skate because he's pretty sure that he can't even feel his legs, can't feel anything but her hand in his because he's just-- so fucking happy that he's numb.
Does that make sense?]
I didn't really mean tonight. I don't think I could sit still long enough to eat.
[But he'd be damn good for some marathon celebratory sex, just saying.]
[ .........................are you sure about that...
He's a hockey player, he can skate even when he's asleep. She's careful to help keep him properly upright and not falling all over his own skates or something; and when their fingers thread together, she squeezes them gently in quiet recognition. ]
And I'm sure the team has other plans for you this evening. I don't expect you'll be getting much sleep.
[ THEY'RE NOT HAVING SEX BEFORE THEIR FIRST DATE. ]
[ She's not selling it. Becket musk is all hers to have. ]
Depends on where you're going.
[ Really, this is her being cheeky. They just won the Cup, she can be cheeky. WELL SECOND BASE POSSIBLY... BOTH BOOBS THIS TIME. NOT JUST THE ONE. Also if Stacker doesn't kill you before you get there it's cool, too. ]
