Don′t blame me, love made me crazy. If it doesn't, you ain′t doin' it right. Lord, save me, my drug is my baby. I'll be usin′ for the rest of my life.
thomas and y/n. y/n and thomas. it was always like that, just you two against the world. for 12 years you and thomas we’re best friends, you still are.
he was older by a year so naturally he was protective of you. you guys always say your future together with each other, you went to the same schools all your life and had the same after school activities and also always had the same friends.
so went you started to date guys and he started dating and occasionally hooking up with girls, you guys never mingled in each others love lives. although when you were younger you always told each other when you had a new crush, now you two rarely talked about your that aspect of your life.
so naturally it came to a shock to thomas when he found out you invited your boyfriend as your plus one.
boyfriend, weird.
you and thomas, both, we’re invited to a wedding of one your friend’s . thomas and you would always be each others plus one that’s why you alarmed thomas early that you invited your boyfriend.
he was shocked questioning you why you didn’t tell him, saying he was your best friend. you simply answered with a “we-never-really-talk-about-our-sex-lives”.
and with that he was invited to dinner with you and your boyfriend. he didn’t get the pit unknown feeling in his stomach that built when you told him the news.
I′ve been breakin' hearts a long time. And toyin′ with them older guys. Just playthings for me to use
the day came with him meeting and the clock was ticking, you just finished setting up the table making thomas’ favorite. your boyfriend came downstairs and gave you a peck on the cheek. that was thomas’ thing.
but it never really had an affect on you when albert did it, whenever thomas did it, you would always get a pink rose color all over your cheeks.
it always had that affect on you, you still remembered when thomas did it when you guys first met and it became thomas’ thing.
— 2008 —
little y/n loved her dolphin stuffed animal, she never went anywhere without it , she quickly became attached to it. she actually named him dopie.
she was gripping it in her hand while she was watching the kids play in the playground. she was scared and new to the school, nobody really approached her since nobody knew who she was.
suddenly she heard the bells of a candy truck. she squealed before grabbing her mothers hand and dragging her towards it.
when she got her ice cream she turned to her mother to ask for dopie but soon her smile fell when she didn’t see him no where in her mothers hand.
“mommy wheres dopie?” little y/n asked. her mothers eyes went wide, y/n was soon going to be panicking and having a full temper tantrum.
“why don’t we go check the bench and then if we don’t find him don’t panick i’ll report it to the police” her mother reassured y/n. y/n nodded her eyes filled up with tears. when she went back to the bench she found a boy gripping dopie tightly.
she smiled, dopie was there. she went up running to the boy, her mother on her tail.
“that’s my dopie” she said softly to him. he made eye contact with her, he gave her a cheeky smile before nodding and extending dopie towards her.
“i wanted to protect him for you so he doesn’t get stolen” he whispered. she thanked him and asked if he wanted any candy. he gladly took some and they soon went to comfortable silence. young thomas wanted to be her friend, so he started a conversation about a new cartoon that just came out.
young y/n was excited that she finally had thomas, and since she had finally met someone who had watched her favorite cartoon.
when thomas’ mother came to get thomas, thomas turned to y/n. hugging her and kissing her cheek softly, y/n flushed, her cheeks turning pink and said her goodbyes.
— END OF FLASHBACK —
from that moment on those two never went anywhere without each other.
Something happened for the first time. In the darkest little paradise. Shakin', pacin′, I just need you
when you heard the door bell ring, you immediately went opening the door, albert behind you in your tail.
when you saw thomas behind the door you immediately when flying your best friends arms. “Hi” you whispered in your bestfriends neck. thomas chuckled kissing your cheek, you flushed your cheeks turning red. you pulled back when you remembered you had another presence around.
“thomas this is my boyfriend, albert” you introduced the two to each other. thomas smiled at him and albert returned it to him shaking his hand.
throughout the dinner you noticed something different to thomas, but you thought it was just your overthinking. actually you were right, while you thought the dinner went well thomas was tired from faking his smile.
— 2 WEEKS LATER —
the day of your friends wedding came and you were excited and both nervous. you hadn’t seen briss nor bords for about two months now and you couldn’t wait to see their faces again. while you and briss still talked daily, thomas had been acting weird since dinner with you and albert. almost like he was ignoring you, either being dry or being on delivered for hours, or him dodging your daily calls.
when you went to the reception your eyes immediately went to thomas, albert kissing your cheek saying he was gonna go say hi to one of his friend.
thomas eyebrows came together, that was his thing.
you sighed, your chest rising. you signaled your head towards the back room where the door had a sign saying “staff only” but both of you chose to ignore that.
when thomas first walked in, y/n was behind him.
“what has gotten into you” you questioned
“nothing” thomas shrugged.
“i call bull shit you’ve been ignoring me” you spat, a pout formed on her lips. thomas tried to hide his smile, she looked cute. what? stop
“look you have your responsibilities now and i do too” he declared. y/n eyebrows came together. did he mean albert?
“do you mean albert?” y/n questioned her thoughts questioning. thomas really didn’t have any excuse for how he was ignoring her, so he went with the reasoning y/n thought.
“yes i mean albert, now you have somebody else to bother and you still seem to not get the hint to leave me alone, so stop calling me seven hundred times a day” he snapped. you were shocked, your mouth opened but nothing seemed to come out of it.
“y/n-” thomas tried to apologize but was cut off by albert coming in saying he needed to show you your surprise.
you walked out, your hand gripping alberts and suddenly everybodys attention was on you. thomas eyed briss and briss only gave him sympathy eyes. whats going on?
For you , i would cross the line I would waste my time
but when albert brought you to the middle of the room and everybody was waiting anxiously for something, everybody and everything seemed to go blank. thomas was seeing albert going on one knee and he only saw you crying and saying yes while everybody celebrated around you.
while everybody on the wedding was celebrating love, he was drowning himself in pity for the love he realized he had for his best friend.
I would loose my mind. They say, she’s gone too far this time.
—6 MONTHS LATER wedding day—
he had gotten the invitation, of course he had. he was your best friend. yes in past tense.
you both hadn’t talked since the fight or since albert proposed.
thomas decided to share his feelings so the pit feeling would go away. no he wasn’t being selfish, he thought that you should know so that you knew why he ignored you.
when he walked in your hotel suite holding his present to you in his hand, your bridesmaids immediately went from being hectic to the place being quiet.
your best friend stepped up greeting him. but before she could ask how he was he immediately cut to the chase
“Wheres y/n?” thomas questioned. your best friend pointed towards a door to another room.
he knocked hearing you say come in. when he walked in, your eyes went wide.
“You came” a small hope filled smile went across your face.
“Yeah i did, i got you something” he said handing over the box. y/n put the brush down grabbing the box. when she opened it she was shocked to find a replica of dopi the dolphin she lost when she was 10.
“thomas thank you oh my god where did you find this?” you questioned standing up pulling thomas in a tight hug before pulling back and looking at the stuffed animal again while biting your lip , an excited look on your face.
thomas couldn’t wait any longer, he needed to tell her. he knew that it was fucked up to ruin her special day but he needed to get it off his chest.
“y/n i love you, and not as a friend or a best friend i love you but as a love-of-my-life love you” he examined. you froze. your eyes widened. “thomas-”
“no please y/n let me talk okay i’m sorry okay?i’m sorry for ignoring you but its better to ignore you than for you to reject me and i don’t care any longer and i have to give you a thousand i’m sorrys but let me start with i’m sorry for coming to tell you this today but i need to know that these 12 years that we’ve been best friends, have ever felt something for me? or i’m sorry for being selfish and not being happy for you that you’re finally having your fairy tale wedding but i can’t be happy for you unless its me waiting for you at the end of that alter while your father gives you to me , i love you and while i’ve been sorry for that these 6 months i’m proud of it now” he said out of breath. tears filled up in y/n eyes, but thomas knew those tears and they certainly weren’t happy ones. so he walked out without letting you say anything.
thomas was in the bathroom, his eyes showed numbness. the pit feeling in his stomach was now gone , so he didn’t have anything in him anymore.
the bathroom door stormed open, hitting the wall behind it. thomas looked up and an out of breath brendan came in.
“alberts…looking fo… for you” he said having trouble, trying to catch his breath. thomas eyebrows shot up.
he definitely was going to get kicked out of the wedding now.
when he went to the bachelor suite looking for albert, he walked in and albert stood there dressed in a suit. suddenly he was reminded he was going to get married to the girl of his dreams, lucky bastard.
“get dressed thomas, y/n told me to break the news to you that either she’s going to call off the wedding or you’re going to be the one waiting for her at the end of the alter” he said. what?
now here they stood both at the end of the altar, him saying his improvised vows and he couldn’t be more prouder to say that him being stupid and fighting that day on their friends wedding would lead him to here, kissing his now wife.
Don’t blame me , love made me crazy. If it doesn’t, you ain’t doing it right. Lord save me, my drug is my baby. I’ll be using for the rest of my life.
part two?

KASPER I DON'T KNOW ANYONE but please pick two boys with the same name (obviously has to actually be a rarepair) and the word is ….salamander
Ella you are the only mfer in this town who can handle me.
William Eklund/William Nylander....
;;
William had never in his life wanted to attend the NHL All-Star game, and had been hoping that Toronto’s general distaste for him would have saved him from that fate, but an Art Ross campaign turned the tide towards him favorably, and now instead of vacationing in St. Kitts with David and his wife and kid like he’d planned, he was skating onto the ice at Scotiabank to a crowd of thousands of cheering fans in multi-colored jerseys.
It would have been bearable if there had been any other Swedes at the event, but it was just him, that kid from the Sharks, and Elias Pettersson. Pettersson was wrapped up in some season-long dramedy with Quinn Hughes and Brock Boeser, who were both at the event, and William would not touch that until the offseason, when he could hear about it properly, as God intended, in Swedish, in a club, while Elias spilled his guts over cocktails at 8pm on Saturday.
That left William to spend time with either his teammates, who kept fucking up their breakaways, or William Eklund, who was doing a bad job of not looking too overwhelmed. Brent Burns kept hovering around him protectively, but William hadn’t been afraid of that guy in years, so he skated up to them, smiling flirtatiously at Brent Burns while elbowing him out of the way so he could stand next to Eklund. Burnzie frowned at him but William said, “ah, calm down,” in Swedish and Burnzie rolled his eyes.
“Hey,” he said to Eklund.
Eklund smiled. He looked stressed. “Hey,” he said. “This is pretty special.”
“It’s actually fucking up my vacation plans,” said William. “I didn’t want to be here.”
Eklund laughed and then clapped a hand over his mouth when a bunch of players turned to look at them. Admittedly, Marc-Andre Fleury had just come out of the tunnel to huge applause, and everyone was supposed to be cheering for the old man. William didn’t care, because he knew for a fact Fleury also did not want to be there, but the NHL was fond of the guy and making him go on a farewell tour was part and parcel. “I was supposed to go to Cabo,” Eklund said.
“Saint Kitts,” said William. “When you make major league money, you’ll get there.”
“Yeah, six million?” said Eklund. “You’re making Toronto sweat without a contract, man.”
William inclined his head to the kid and whispered, “you have to make them earn it.”
Eklund covered his mouth with his hand again and then said, with a bright smile, “aren’t you supposed to earn it?”
“I can make big money on any team in the league,” said William. “Any team would be lucky to have me. If Toronto wants me, they have to show it.”
“Contract negotiations are that bad?” Eklund said with his eyes wide.
William grinned at him. “Maybe, maybe not,” he said. “Maybe I should come to San Jose. I bet the sunshine’s nice, right?”
Eklund blushed, which was delightful.
“What do they call you?” William asked.
“Ekky.”
“Gecko,” corrected Burnzie. William flinched. “Since when do you speak Swedish?”
Burnzie smiled with his teeth. William rolled his eyes and turned to Eklund and said in English, “Gecko? What's a gecko? Like a salamander?”
Eklund shrugged. "I don't know what a salamander is?"
"It's a lizard, dumbass," said Burnzie. "Not you, Gecko, I was talking to Nylander." He thumped William on the top of his helmet. "His nickname is Gecko."
“Burnzie calls me Gecko. He’s the only one. Uh, but—” Eklund switched back to Swedish “ —you can call me Wille.”
He was blushing harder this time. William was so charmed.
“Wille,” said William. He bumped his elbow against Wille’s. “You want to get a drink later?”
“Uh,” Wille looked at Burnzie, but Barzal had just taken the ice so he was distracted. He said, very quietly, “yeah, yes please. I don’t know anyone else here.”
William’s weekend had just turned around in a huge way.

Hey, y’all!
So I made a rec list of trans blogs on hockey tumblr (it’s my pinned post, check it out, there are some amazing folks on there!), but unfortunately there were quite a few teams that I couldn’t find any blogs to rec/had only a few! I know that there are trans fans of every team, and I want to make sure that fans from every team have a voice :)
The teams I couldn’t rec blogs from:
Anaheim Ducks
Buffalo Sabres
Calgary Flames
Detroit Red Wings
New York Islanders
New York Rangers
Ottawa Senators
Saint Louis Blues
This could be me not having followers from these teams, because obviously I won’t have followers from teams I don’t support, but if you’re a trans blogger that supports any of these teams (any team at all, actually), reply to this post/send me a message with your top teams (it can be as many as you want) and I’ll add to you my rec list!
Also - teams I could only rec a few from:
Arizona Coyotes
Columbus Blue Jackets
Edmonton Oilers
LA Kings
Minnesota Wild
Nashville Predators
New Jersey Devils
San Jose Sharks
Vegas Golden Knights
Woho
Like always, this includes nonbinary people/people outside the gender binary.
Feel free to reblog and boost! :)

summary: When shes getting time to meet her new “boss” and seeing how he is behind the articles. She finds out he’s holding a lot of baggage. Making her mission for him to open up, it was harder than it looked because of his new found hatred for her. That’s until he invites her to a special place.
warning: mature language, mention of alcohol, childhood trauma. not proof read.
authors note: i’m having too much fun with this series. ik that bords doesn’t have a clock tattoo but just go along with it. why does this chapter feel so short lmao
masterlist.
love sex and hockey masterlist.
Tumblr media
“THOMAS, THIS IS JULIETTE D’AMOUR, you’re new Pr representative” Scotty introduced. Thomas ignored her hand and only gave her a stiff nod earning a glare from his agent.
“Nice to meet you” She said. Acting as though he didn’t threaten to fire her 12 hours ago.
“I’ll let you two get to know each other for a bit until we go to the press conference” Scotty declared. Julie knew he warned Thomas to be nice to her, she could practically hear a fuming Thomas from the other room.
The door closed behind Scotty leaving the two alone. Tension rose and Thomas was getting impatient.
Julies focus was on something else tho, in Thomas’ arms , tatted was a clock and knife stabbed into it. She wondered what it meant, then going around it was a tree, without leafs. And then a lion with a scar along on one of his eyes.
Maybe they meant something to him, they do probably. And all this thoughts were around her head. He needs to open up. He’s definitely not an alcoholic but maybe he’s drinking to forget. Was she really going to judge him based off his tattoos? that’s a start.
“Didn’t your parents ever tell you that staring is rude” Thomas questioned with a teasing tone. Julies eyes went from his to arms to his face, she wish she could say he didn’t have a nice face.
“Didn’t your parents ever tell you that you don’t ignore others when they try to shake your hand” She shot back. He chuckled, butterflies suddenly exploding in her stomach. his laugh.
“Well they only told me to not ignore elders” He stated. His eyes were like they were smirking, Julie knew she and him were going to have a hard time.
“In order for us to work together , you and I need to get along” she said softly. He scoffed standing up from his seat.
Bending down to her height, he came close to her face. “In your dreams witch”.
timeskip
2 WEEKS LATER
He wasn’t working with her, literally.
Every time the two would see each other, he would go the other way and he was basically forced to have weekly two hours meetings with her. She wasn’t sure what she did to him, maybe she took too far in insulting him?
Today was the day of another press conference. The last one she had when she first formally met Thomas, didn’t end so well when a new reporter slipped out that he had wrote an article on the one nightstand Thomas had with an instagram model. Scotty was furious.
Her nickname by him became “witch” and soon even Scotty would call her that. She wasn’t annoyed, it was just a nickname. She was used to them by now.
She had just finished a schedule plan for Thomas to do for the next 6 months. It included him visiting sick fans and spending the day with them, going on a run , and all types of funny interviews she had seen online. All of these activities were in a public place for the paps to photograph. She was slowly going to help him bring his image back.
She headed towards Scottys office , she was sure Thomas was there when she saw him walk in this morning. Going up to the office open doors, she softly knocked on the hard wood and both heads turned towards her.
“If you aren’t busy , I need to talk to both of you” She played with her fingers. Her laptop on her hand . Scotty softly smiled at the girl, she had heard him say plenty of times that she reminded him of his daughter.
“Yeah come in” She heard Thomas groan. She chuckled, it was actually funny to her. Thomas’ misery.
“I just finished the schedule plan,you can take a look at it for this week and then we can talk about the next 6 months.We have a kid that reached for you by Make a Wish foundation wanting to have dinner with Thomas and teach him how to take a girl on a date, I was thinking maybe for Thomas to spend the day with him. His name is Will and he’s sick—“ Julie rambled. A small soft pity smile came across Scottys face. He could tell she really wanted the kid to meet Thomas and that showed care, and it was a good idea to make Thomas the good guy sometimes, but Julie was cut off by Thomas.
“I get it that you have trauma by spending your life in an orphanage but I don’t get to pay for your personal trauma just because you feel bad for some kid” He snapped, cutting her off. Julies jaw dropped, how did he know that? was her past coming back to her? her eyes filled up with tears.
Maybe Thomas was right, just because Will reminded her of her traumatic past doesn’t mean she needs to force Thomas to spend the day with him.
She heard Scotty gasp. “Thomas” his voice dripped with venom, warning him to stop. And he did, he shut his mouth closed but it wasn’t because of Scotty. It was her glossy eyes that stopped him.
“You’re right I’ll make sure to just write him a letter your busy right now and wish him a full recovery” She said softly, almost like a whisper. Suddenly guilt filled up in Thomas’ body, he gulped, opening his mouth but words didn’t seem to find a way to come out of his mouth.
“I’ll send you the other plans for the next 6 month by email” With her printed plans for him in her hand, she turned and stormed out of the office as quick as she can.
Thomas sighed, putting his head in his ands.
Scotty’s voice filled up the silenced room. “Go, make her forgive you for all the immature shit you just did”
— 3 DAYS LATER —
Julie still hadn’t heard from Thomas, and this time she was glad. Him bringing up her past was something personal and it never had anything to do work.
She was just debating to sent the boy the letter or actually drag Thomas to spent two hours with his number one fan.
A knock interrupted her silence. When she looked up from her day dreaming, she made eye contact with a pair of eyes she was trying to avoid for three days now.
Thomas stood awkwardly, his hands in his pockets.
“You have any plans around 8 o’clock?” He questioned. Julies eyebrows came together, she was confused. She didn’t know any press conferences or meetings for today. She had made plans with her bed and Netflix watching Blacklist.
“No… why?” she said, dragging the no in the end. He nodded his head in approval .
“Great I’m gonnq take you somewhere” He declared. Julie looked at him suspiciously. Thomas wanting to give her his time of day willingly? This was definitely Scottys doing.
“You’re supposed to ask, guess another manned your parents failed to teach you” She pointed out. He chuckled. “Is this an apology for bringing up my childhood trauma?” She questioned. His expressions falled and he gulped , feeling the guilt in his stomach.
“Yes and I’m Sorry” he admited apologizing. She nodded her head with a soft smile. He almost chocked apologizing jeez . But Julie knew rarely did those words ever come out of Thomas’ mouth.
“8 o’clock, wear something casual and comfy if you want. I’ll come pick you up, don’t be late” He stated and turned leaving. She smiled nodding her head, this was a start.
When 7 o’clock came around, Julie wore a white crop top with blue denim loose jeans and a pair of white sneakers.
Emilia was gone to go visit her mother and she didn’t bother telling the girls because she didn’t have time for them to come over and glam her up.
A knock on the door was heard, heading towards it. She saw Thomas from the peep hole and opening the door she welcomed him.
“You look…good” He admitted. Julie chuckled at his hard time saying those words.
“Thank you, you do too, let’s get going” Julie rushed. Her apartment wasn’t cleaned and right now she wasn’t looking for another insult from him.
He opened the door for her like a true gentleman and they drove. She rolled down the window, the breeze freshly making contact with her skin. Her hair went everywhere, it was like a scene from a movie. She get it know, she actually felt free.
What she didn’t know is how Thomas eyes admired her, she looked gorgeous.
Soon they arrived, the sight made Julie confused. It looked like an abounded building
“You know I’m starting to think you’re a cereal killer and you invited me here to kill me” she laughed. Thomas laughed . His laugh. Oh god.
“Come one Witch” He stepped in front of her, extending his hand and leaving it, inviting it for her to take. She was shocked, she never really would believe the guy that hated her would invite her to hold his hand but she took it nether less and went behind him while he led them to the place.
Suddenly they were in front of a mural , a boy was painted, he was laughing holding an ice scream. And the other boy was painted in dark colours, his ice scream was bigger than the others but a worried look was on his face while he looked at the other boy.
Then she suddenly gets it. Thomas was worried he wouldn’t live up to the expectations, to the pressure to be good. She never really thought of that tho, she always knew that he would be good no matter what, at least in hockey.
But i guess it the least problem you expect for people to have. This was Thomas’ problem, she got him now. He would drink to forget and then be angry in the morning because not one hockey player had this many scandals. And then he would drink to forget his stress and pressure, his insecurities. That’s why he didn’t want to do those activities, because he knew that he would have to make people happy by meeting people’s expectations.
This was something Julie didn’t get in the nhl world, if you loose a game. A part of the loss is on you, if you win a game, you had to do that for the next games and with that came pressure. She needed him to know that he was enough, enough for everyone and it was okay to have losses. We all did have those at one point.
“Thomas” She turned towards him “Let me in, let me help you”. His eyes met hers, they showed worry and hesitance. She knew that look before, the first time someone tried to help.
“Come let’s get you back home you have an early morning tomorrow”

flames, blues, sharks
calgary flames: favourite national team? 
Ooh okay so I dont really pay much attention to international comps but I'd like to say Team Canada (2014) im fairly new to hockey(like i literally just started being a fan at the start of the year) but i did watch some of their games on youtube and I just think that whole roster was 🔥🔥🔥
saint louis blues: best jersey? 
OKAY HEAR ME OUT, idk why people hate the stars black out jerseys when they literally have those abominable snowman jerseys that are just 🖓. those blasty pads Rittich had made WERE SO FUCKING COOL. Its a shame we'll mever see those again (sorry flames fans. here have a hug ♡) and last but definitely not the least, YOUR. VEGAS. GOLDEN. KNIGHTS. oh my god like BROOOOO the red was such a great choice. im glad they went with this logo. I love looking at these jerseys so much
Tumblr media
san jose sharks: favourite first overall pick? 
Okay this one was hard bcs as I mentioned, i havent been around here for a long period of time so I may not know a lot of shit. So what i did do is use ye ole Google and look at the list of first overall picks, and by far the man that stands out most to me is Marc-Andre Fleury. Yes, its a bit bias bcs I am a pens & knights fan but this man has been performing his absolute best this season. He has been the backbone for the Knights ever since the franchise started and to be a first round pick as a goalie?? thats pretty fucking cool. He's been doing crazy saves for a guy thats 36 years old. I hope he gets to raise the cup again soon and this guy is definitely going to be the most praised and most memorable hall of famer in the future
