Hope you guys like this one..:]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

C;

We made another couple rounds in the park. Geno was stopped about a dozen times for pictures but neither of us minded. We ended up both wanting to go on the Tower or Terror about three times before we ended up giving up and going somewhere else. The line for the ride was so long...!!!! That night I managed to talk Evgeni into going to Forrest Gump to eat.

"Why. Some where Romantic!!?!?" He pleaded.

"I have had enough romance for now babe." I smiled.

"Fine. I guess will work." He frowned.

"Awh.. Cheer up darling. Youll love the place." I laughed at his expression.

Geno seemed to be having fun, just as I predicted. He was taking pictures and making sure to take mental notes so he could show and tell all the guys about it.

"This cool." He smiled.

" I know right. Great food to!" I laughed.

"Babe." He grabbed my hand. "Just remember, I for you. Not Elena, No Parents. You!"

"I know." I smiled.

Our food came soon after as did the sunset outside the window we had been sitting by.

"Thats so pretty." I looked out.

"Yeah. Always here." He grabbed my hand.

When we got to the car outside he looked at me funny.

"What?" I laughed.

"You Drive?" He dangled the keys.

"Where to?" I swipped them from his hand.

"Club?" He opened the door for me.

"YES!!" I yelled.

I had never been to a club in Flordia. A lot of Paparazzi were outside, so I put my ring on my other hand.

"ready?" He reached for my hand.

"Of Course." I smiled.

Questiones were thrown up in the air as Geno and I walked by.

"Geno. Why are you in Flordia? Did you get traded? Is that Ciera? I've heard you are engaged. Is that true? Did you ask Ciera? Or is it the other girl?"

He stopped dead in his tracks.

Geno;

"What girl?" He turned as everyone got quiet.

"There is another girl in Pittsburgh, out shopping with your mom and claiming to be your Fiance."

"That not true." He looked at me.

I just smiled putting the ring back where is belonged.

"This Ciera. She Fiance." He lifted my hand so they could see the ring.

"Ciera. Evgeni. Where and How did it happen?? Was it romantic?"

I smiled and laced my fingers with his as we made our way into the club.

"I sorry." He said once we were in the VIP section.

"Its okay. Your moms gonna flip." I looked at him.

"I know." He shrugged his shoulders.

"Dance!" He grabbed my hand and pulled me to the dance floor.

Vero;

When I got the text from Jordan I immediately got ready.

"Marc, baby." I yelled down the stairs.

"Hmmm." He walked to the door.

"Im running down to the Strip. Do you need anything?"

"ummm." He thought. "Beer and pizza would be good." He smiled.

"Sid's coming over?" I smirked.

"Yeah. Is that okay with you?" He wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Yes. But why dont you order in the Pizza and have Sid pick up the beer. I dont know how long I will be."

"Alright." He kissed me.

"See yah later. You two behave." I smiled grabbing my purse and leaving.

In a short time, I was outside the same store in the picture. Ive never really been in this store. I dont find many of their dresses attractive.

"Hello. May I help you?" A nice looking woman asked.

"Umm. Im looking for a dress." I smiled.

"Occassion?" She asked with a smile.

"Well I saw it on your website." I thought back to the dress in the picture.

"Okay. What did it look like?" She walked towards a computer as I followed.

"Black and gold. It was really pretty." I lied.

"Oh. The halter top?" She turned the screen to me.

"Yes. That is it." I got 'excited.'

"Im sorry. We just sold this one this morning." She looked at me with a blank expression.

"Are you serious?" I paused. "My husband loved that dress. He wanted me to wear it to his game on Friday.." I frowned.

"Your husbands game Friday?" She looked at me weird.

"Yes?!" I questioned.

"The woman that bought the dress," She smiled."Was getting it for her Fiance's game."

"Oh really?" I smirked.

"Yup. He is a Penguins player. Does yours play for them to?" she seemed excited.

"Yes. Yes he does." I smiled politly. "Do you know which players Fiance it was?"

"Evgeni Malkin. I assume. His mother was with her."

"Elena. Damn her. I told her I wanted it." I played along. "Thank you."

She smiled. "Who's wife are you?"

"Marc-Andre." I dug for my phone to avoid the rest of the converstaion.

I was really calling Jordan, but I made it seem otherwise.

"Girl. How you going to get my dress. You had better let me borrow it." I waved and walked out the door.

"What?" He asked.

"Nevermind. The dress is for the game. The woman showed me it on the computer. It is GORGEOUS!"

"What are we going to do? What are we going to tell Ciera?" He asked sadly.

"I dont know. Dont say anything yet." I stressed.

"Alright." He replied. "I gotta go. Ill text you later."

Jordan;

While I was talking to Vero I heard the door bell ring.

'sweet pizza is here.'

I got my pizza and sat down to watch the Hawks game I DVR'd.

'I wish my bestie was here !'

During the first intermisson Jared called.

"Im like 5 hours out!!!" He excitedly said.

"Alright. Ill be waiting at the house for you." I hung up and sent a forward through my contacts.

*Jared is about 5 hours out side of town. Around 11 I am taking him to Diesel. If anyone would like to join you are more then welcome to.*

Thanks for all your feedback. It helped me decided weither to update this soon. Or to go to one of the other stories...

Hope you look this one to. Its kind of short though.... -Ciera

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Geno:

I looked out the window to see where she had been pointing. To my dismay I find my parents old friends outside and there 5'6'', Blond bombshell of a daughter step out of the car in a mini skirt and tank top.

"Is that who I think it is?" She looked up from where she was sitting on the window seal.

The only thing that I could do was nod my head.

Ciera:

I was getting some of Geno's things out of the side table when I heard a car pull in an two doors shut. Knowing it wasnt any of the guys I went to see who was here. Evgeni's parents were rushing out of the house to the car, hugging the people that got out. I yelled for Geno, as he came in my mouth just couldnt make words when I saw the back door to the car open up and a stiletto hit the pavement. Then she got out. I recognized her from pictures of his childhood that I have seen. Elena the girl that Evgeni had told me so many stories about. They were neighbors, best friends, and secretly it seemed they both had crushes on one another. I looked up to Geno who was just staring, I snapped my fingers in front of his face to get him out of his trance.

"Well." I finally said.

"well what?"

"Oh my." I looked at her as she walked towards the house and then looked down at what I had on.

I still hadnt changed from this morning, coffee still all down me. I ran into the bathroom: This caused Evgeni to actually move from where he was standing.

"Babe." He pounded on the door.

"What?"

"What are you doing."

"Fixing my face!" I yelled. "Go pick out the cutest, sexiest thing that you can find in the closet!"

"Why?"

"Just do it."

"okay babe only if you unlock the door. I dont want to be left out here!"

"I will when you have the outfit."

"Okay im getting there."

I put on my make up as fast as I could, my hair wasnt that bad: it really just needed brushed. After words it just looked as if it had just been straightened it and may I say looked very good.

"Geno come on." I yelled.

He knocked on the door as I let him in, he walked in with the little royal blue dress that he had bought me a couple of weeks ago for my birthday bass at diesel.

"This good he asked."

"Yeah perfect. I was looking for that last night but couldnt find it. Thanks babe." I kissed him.

"So should I go get dressed make it look like we are going somewhere?"

"That is a great plan. Yes do that."

He laughed as he walked into the other room.

"Evgeni." I heard his mother yell.

"Yes mom."

"Where are you?"

"Bed room."

"You have guest."

"No mom. you have guest Ciera and I are going out."

I laughed to my self at that one.

"Well at least come say hello."

"I will when WE are ready."

No more was directed to either of us, untill we both walked down stairs.

"Where are you going my son?" She pulled him away into the living room.

"Ciera and I are getting some things for out trip." He reached for my hand, pulling me into the living room, then wrapping his arm around my waist.

Elena:

I was so excited to see Evgeni. When my parents had told me we were going to the United States to see him I had my bags packed as fast as I could. I hadnt seen him since we were young. Although I followed everything he did including the hole time he has played for the penguins.

"Elena are you finally going to tell him how you feel?" My mother asked me.

"what do you mean?"

"Natilia and I both know that you to have had something going on that neither wanted to admit."

"mother!"

"I am just stating the obvious!"

The rest of the plane ride was silent. I watched out the window as we flew over the 'steel city.' Much like home there was steel plants along the rivers as we drove into downtown to the hotel before heading over to Evgeni's. Thinking about what my mother had said I changed into a mini I had brought with me before we left.

"Are you ready Elen.." My mother walked into my part of the room.

"what?"

"You look beautiful"

"Why thank you."

As we drove past the huge, beautiful homes we made it to a extravagant red bricked house. The two pine trees coisiding beside his brick walk way to the front door. Above the door a beautiful white balcony like porch which I assumed lead into his room.

"Wow" was the only thing I could say.

Inside the house sure didnt discourage me. We sure didnt grow up in anything like this back in Russia I said to myself. I was in complete awh.

I waited anxiously for him to come down stairs. I was pretty sad when he had told his mother he was going out to get some things couldnt that wait!

As soon as he came around the corner with his mother I couldnt help but smile. He had on this really cute, light blue, torn up jeans, a graphic tee that said 'southern comfort',(that i didnt understand) and a pair of tennis shoes. Wow did he look diffrent since I had seen him last.

Then out of nowhere he pulls this girl up to him. My heart broke. I watched them walk out the door as my mother looked at me I wanted to cry but not in front of his parents I wouldnt.

Geno:

After wrapping my arm around her I saw the excitement in everyones eyes fade. I knew right then that something was up. I grabbed C's hand reached for the keys at the bar behind Elena and walked out the door yelling a ''good bye'' into the house before shutting the door behind me.

I got in the porsce then put the top down and pulled out of the driveway. Half way down the street I got a kiss.

"what was that for?"

"Because I LOVE YOU!" She smiled.

"I love you to babe."
