Cody

Being back home with our families and sharing this special time of the year together makes me realize and be grateful for so many things. Having this amazing woman by my side who makes me want to be a better man, a woman who drives me to want to do the right thing, I am grateful for her love, it is unconditional and how she will stand by my side no matter what happens, melts my heart. I want to be the best I can for Imogen. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her, hell if she asked for the moon, I’d do my darndest to get it for her.

We enjoyed the rest of our time at her folks it was special to see how happy Atlas and Fallon are, him getting engaged, wow I mean it’s huge, but it has got me to thinking. What am I waiting for? I want to be with Immi for the rest of my life, I already know that. If I’m perfectly honest, I think I already knew that some time ago and there is no way I want to let her slip through my fingers again. She has my heart, my mind, my body and my soul. Sure

    Imogen“Your folks are so funny.” I tell Cody as we get back to the Lake house. It never ceases to amaze me how beautiful and peaceful it is here with the view of the deep, dark lake. On a summer’s day the sun bounces off it making it glitter like a spray of diamonds have been strewn across it. Tonight, it is dark like midnight blue. You can just make it out with the few solar lights that Cody has placed on his area of the lake and Atlas across. It is kind of comforting to know that just across the water my brother is with his fiancée, Fallon.I love the word fiancée, it is a promise of something wonderful to happen in life, a new chapter, a new beginning. The partnership of two people who are entrusting their lives to one another to be together forever. Fallon and Atlas have the makings of a couple who will be together for the rest of their lives. They have been through so much together, I mean they started dating around High School time, through long distance when she went away to co

    CodyThe walk was peaceful and beautiful, I am torn between having to leave my girl again tomorrow and wanting to jack it all in to be with her here forever not leaving her side. My heart feels like it is being squeezed and the life is being sucked out of my lungs. Damn it, who would have known being separated from Immi even for a second would be so damn hard but it is. Still, we do have tonight and I want to make slow, tender love to my girl.My assistant had messaged me earlier to tell me she has lined up some private diamond viewings for me in Dallas over the next few days when we get back from the Vancouver game. That at least makes me feel excited, and when I propose to Immi, I want it to be the most romantic proposal ever. I know I have a lot to live up to, after all this girl is a romance reader and a Hallmark movie fan so I have got my work cut out for me. I’ve asked my assistant to come up with some ideas, she told me to find out what Immi’s favorite romance book is and read

    ImogenThe few days went by way too quickly and again that lost feeling in my heart has settled in. I know I’ll be fine in a few more days once I am back in my routine and I do have Kitten to keep me company. The little rascal is growing bigger but still has all his mischievous ways. I keep finding socks all over the place, he steals them out of my laundry bag.Lukov and I are in the restaurant kitchen, he is cooking up a fancy sauce for the steaks tonight and wants me to try it, honestly his food is like a dream and it is no wonder that our patrons love coming in.“Lukov, do you have a minute?”“Of course, let me turn this off, I don’t want to ruin it.” I head to my coffee machine and start prepping nice strong coffees. What with visiting my folks, Cody’s folks and two nights of practically non-stop sex, I am whacked and could do with staying in bed for two whole days. Bliss.He comes to sit down at one of the tables and I admire the Damask cloth on it, the gold Damask napkins, and th

    Cody I feel like a bomb has exploded in my chest, my heart is racing like it’s about to explode and the future looks very different to me now than it did just a few hours ago. I am still reeling from Luna’s news.I’ve let coach know that I will be in a few hours later than anticipated, needless to say he gave me some grief because we are flying out to Vancouver tonight. How can I even think about a game when I’ve got a total life changing situation going on? Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I rake my hands through my hair and sit on the battered leather sofa in the lounge of my ranch house.My elbows are propped on my thighs, my head is on my hands as I think about this morning’s meeting and Imogen has messaged me back to ask what the hell is going on. Shit, damn and fuck is all I can think of right now.When I woke up at five thirty this morning and had my run and shower, some breakfast a protein shake, I did not expect that my life would change even more than it already has with a baby coming.Lun

    Imogen“Say what?” Screeches Autumn down the phone. I’ve caught her luckily after working hours, not that she ever truly stops working. Now that she is heading for the vice presidency within her firm, she is busier than ever. “I need to sit down, Girl.”I can just imagine her in shock at this news. “Luna wants him to be the full-time parent and I am going to go check out some units in Austin for opening a new place. You know just breakfasts and lunches that way I will be free the rest of the day pretty much and can be there for Cody and the baby. He’s going to need all the help he can get.”“Honey, are you sure? This is a massive step; I mean all of a sudden you will be full on mom. You’re only in your early twenties. Holy cow.”“I’m sure, Autumn you know how much I love Cody, this is the most natural thing to do.”“Maybe but still. Fuck. I can’t get my head round it, why would Luna want to give up her kid? I just don’t get it. She was all over social about being a mommy and how she wa

    CodyWe are being slammed on the ice here and it’s a tough game. Coach has given us our pep talk during the recess and boy was he not happy. He told us we were playing like pansies, seriously? Is he for real? We’re killing our balls here, sweat is dropping of all of us and we are exhausted.“Hawk, Man I need you more defensive, they’re coming at us like canon balls, we’re fodder to them. Let’s get a bit more with the programme. What’s going on with you today?” I ask him. He shrugs. “Don’t give me a fucking shrug I need confidence; something is going on care to share it?”Atlas sits on the bench next to me and shakes his head. “Yeah, c’mon Hawk your game is off today, we’re sucking and we’ve the ability to paste these guys. I’m not getting it.”Hawk blows out. “Darla has left me, said something about needing some space.” Fuck, that sucks. Darla has been his girlfriend from what I understand for the last six years. Not just his girlfriend they are engaged.“What like did she break off th

    ImogenIt’s so late and really, I ought to go to sleep but after watching the game on my small television in the apartment and getting into bed, I started reading and once I am stuck in an Elsie Silver book, well that’s it I am hooked and that old adage comes into play, just one last chapter before bed. Only, in my case it was right until the end of the book and since I had only started it the other night, of course I finished it and now it’s already nearly midnight.I hear something from downstairs, Kitten’s head comes up and his ears prick up. What the hell is it? Surely not an intruder, this is a safe place we don’t have a high crime rate and why would anyone want to break into my restaurant? Cash I am guessing. My heart races and pounds in my chest, I place a hand over it to try to settle it down, but I am scared as anything, my mouth is dry. Kitten stirs and jumps off the bed.My first instinct is to grab him, if someone has broken in, they won’t care about a tiny black fluffball

    CodyWaking up with Imogen fast asleep snoring lightly in my arms is one of the best feelings in the world, aside from making love with her and watching her as she goes about her day. I love the way she is emphatic with her hands, the way she fusses over Kitten and how she is a natural woman with no airs and graces, no pretence and no hidden agenda.I look down at her beautiful, serene face as she blows little sleep bubbles, her hair scattered across my shoulders and Kitten with his head on her other shoulder. It’s so fucking adorable that I wish I could capture this moment forever and never let it go. Alas, this morning is the scan morning and we both have to face Luna. Maybe I should let her know that Imogen is coming with me to avoid any outbursts at the hospital. Why couldn’t things just be a whole lot simpler?Imogen stirs and as much as I’d like to wake her up some more with my morning wood, I don’t. She needs rest. We were up last night most of the night and it was already late

    Bonus Epilogue – CodyI watch Immi holding our baby boy, who we called Miles, he’s just three months old and Immi is a natural mother. My heart swells watching her holding him in her arms whilst her mother fusses around her.Her father slaps me on the back, “you did us proud, Cody. I couldn’t wish for a better man for my grandbaby and little Summer. That girl is a firecracker, she’s got you eating out of the palm of her hand.”“Don’t I know it, Sir. My boy will be the same.” We chuckle as we watch my Minnesota team enjoy a few colds ones on the grass that leads down to the lake out back of my Lake home. Immi and I are back now, we’ve come full circle from the first moment she came back into my life to be my nutironist and the sparring of words that took place back then.Who’d have thought that in just two years I’d be married to my gorgeous wife, have a baby girl who totters around everywhere and is obsessed with her baby brother and a baby boy. We plan on going for six kids, hell I’d

    Imogen – EpilogueLife has been wonderful to us; our wedding was a dream with all our friends and family around us and the entire hockey teams for Minnesota and for Austin. Of course, as Cody is such a big name, we had to have one of the top celebrity magazine photographers attending and the exclusive pictures in the magazine were amazing. My mom’s cake she made for us was something out of a movie, five tiers, with one chocolate and one vanilla sponge alternating to the top, frosted in a delicate cream frosting with an iced arch at the top, she even made tiny flowers to match the wedding flowers to decorate it. I’m telling you, my mother is a baking wonder.It's been a year since our wedding and I am the happiest I have ever been. Little Summer is crawling and sort of walking, I swear I need eyes in the back of my head. Her blonde curls are to die for and those big blue eyes of hers, well she is a daddy’s girl and the way that Cody is with her, it makes my heart melt. He is the best d

    Cody – December 21st “You look worried, Man you need to chill out. She’s going to be here.” I take a look at Atlas in his striped, grey charcoal pants, his matching waistcoat, the button down white shirt and the cream cravat. We’re matching today, it seems surreal we match on the ice and now we match as I stand in the bedroom of my Lake House nervous as hell, about to go out the back and take my place to wait for my beautiful bride to come down the aisle on her daddy’s arm. I exhale.“I am chilled out, but what if I let her down? What if I’m not the husband she wants to spend the rest of her life with? What if she thinks she wants to fly?” He pats me on the shoulder.“Listen to me, Bro. I like that now we’re going to be proper bro’s no getting away from me now. She loves you, Immi is besotted with you, that girl knows her own mind and if she didn’t think you were right for her, she’d have off-skied a long fucking time ago. So, now stop. This is your day as much as it is hers and you n

    ImogenSummer is a dream, honestly you couldn’t ask for a happier baby, she hardly cries and always holds out her chubby little hands when she sees me, and don’t even get me started on when she sees her daddy. Oh, my it makes my ovaries ache something crazy and I literally cannot wait the next two months for our wedding.Where has the time gone? It’s literally insane. Where to start, first Cody did bring the Stanley Cup home for Austin during the event in June. He is now officially a legend, the crowds went absolutely nuts for him and the team, we have been inundated with so much press and media attention that sometimes it feels stifling, but I have to accept it because being married to the man who won both years in a row for his teams with hattricks in both games, is going to be a major thing. He could happily hang his skates now if he wanted to. He has achieved all the dreams he ever had as a child in his ice hockey career. Although, I have to admit, I would miss going to the games w

    CodyWatching Luna giving birth was surreal, she didn’t make a fuss or create and scream the hospital down, she took it all in her stride, showing her strength and dignity. Seeing the crown of my baby girl’s head brought tears to my eyes.We’re all in the private room and Luna holds our baby in her arms, swaddled in a pale pink blanket, Immi and I have both held her and oh my, I can’t begin to tell you the way I feel. My heart expanded and fluttered like crazy, the love that I feel for this tiny little girl is unbelievable and the way I want to protect her and keep her safe, Man it’s blowing my mind.“So beautiful, Luna.” Immi says her smile wide on her face, her eyes shining like diamonds. “I think she has Cody’s cute nose,” she touches the baby’s face, yes, we still need to name her.“Cody, can you take her, then settle her down, I’m pretty exhausted and will nap.”“Absolutely,” I extend my arms to take our baby girl. “Come here Princess my daddy’s little girl.” Immi giggles and I ca

    Imogen – five months later“I’m coming hold on.” I shout to Cody as he calls me from the front door. We’re due to go riding this morning but we’re both on edge kind of as it has already gone past Luna’s due date by a week. She is totally fed up and just wants the baby to drop. NOW.I rush to step into my riding boots, Ben is coming with us - he has become a real fixture of our bizarre family set up. And the best thing is that he has gotten closer to Luna. How amazing is that since Ben would often keep Luna company on her cabin porch when Cody and I were travelling to his ice hockey games.Fallon has been a dream constantly popping over to see us and also Luna, to be honest I think she has found a friend in Luna too. They’re both in the same position with pregnancies and Fallon stopped travelling to the away games with Atlas about three months ago.Life can be weird at times but in a good way. The one person who caused so much heartache for Cody and I, is now a firm friend and not just

    CodyHer pussy feels wet as I glide my fingers over the lace of her panties, Imogen is so damn beautiful it can bring me to my knees. “I missed you darlin’,” I tell her as I kiss her neck making her tingle and squirm, I know it’s a feeling of delight and tickling as she giggles at my touch.“You were only gone during today, Brannigan,” she giggles as I nip at her neck, whilst continuing to stroke through her soaking panties.“A second is too long to be away from you, I swear Immi you do something to me that makes me want to be glued to your side. It’s a job to take myself away from you.”“You’re such a smooth talker, Brannigan. I feel the same way.” I know she does, whenever we get the opportunity on my away games that she doesn’t travel with me, we make sure to call each other it seems like every few hours around the games and photoshoots, signing autographs, sponsor meetings and the such like. And when I am at practice hell, we still talk regularly in the day. I feel like I cannot b

    Imogen – One Month LaterTime has gone by so quickly, and yes Cody did go on to play with a broken jaw in New York. I went with him and held my breath the entire game, least ways that is how it felt. One more injury and he could have been off the ice for a while. He’s a stubborn old mule is what he is, but they won and he went on to score a hat trick, for those of you who don’t know what that is, it’s when a player scored three goals in a single game. Of course Cody was over the moon, the crowd went nuts even the New York fans.So, where else have we travelled? Let’s see we played a couple of home games, we went to Winnipeg which was fun and I got to do some sightseeing and his folks came too. We are bonding much more and I am loving how much they care about me. His ma even made me a beautiful sweater even though we are heading into Spring, it’s a soft blush pink mohair with daisies. She is so clever, the last time I tried knitting it was a total disaster and I ended up having to ask

    CodyWhat the fuck, did I pass out or something? I’m in a room with hooks up to me and darkness filtering through some lemon shade blinds, Immi is sitting by my bed holding my hands and tears on her face. “Hey darlin’,” I manage feeling like I have been run over by a truck or something, I ache in my ribs, my pelvis and my face is fucking sore.“Cody, baby. Are you in pain?”“Some it’s not so bad. What the hell happened?“You were taken down on the ice. They say you have a bad concussion and a broken nose, and your jaw is fractured.”“Hey, don’t cry it could have been a whole lot worse. Least ways I can still play.”“No way, Brannigan.” Just as she says that a man in his fifties or so comes in with dark hair, splattering of grey at the temples and kind green eyes, not dark or emerald just plain green like leaves in the spring.“Good to see you awake, Brannigan. You took several shots to the head. Your jaw is fractured, I am guessing this lady has already told you that. We assessed your
