Cutler Ryder was everything I wasn’t. 

He was the hockey star. I was an outcast. 
He was best friends with my stepbrother, that same stepbrother who hated me. 
His two parents loved him. My mom was a junkie. My dad barely knew me. 

Years passed.
I got my life together.
Cut went onto NHL stardom. 

Then there was a text. 
I was drinking. 
There was a party. 
Cut was there… 

I loved Cutler Ryder since the first moment I saw him. 
The only problem? He never knew I existed.

“Stars. You made me meet them.” 
I was still seeing them. His eyes. So smoldering. 
He continued to stare at me, as if seeing me for the first time. 
I tensed. 
Maybe he was regretting this? Was my one-night stand a one-night finger bang instead? 
I tried to stem the disappointment, but… Okay. 
A girl had coping mechanisms. I could pull mine up, if I needed to. 
I was hoping I didn’t need to. I didn’t know how I’d handle that either.
Then he must’ve made his decision.
He readjusted his hold on me, standing back from the door and his mouth twitched. “One rule.” 
“Yeah?” 
I was about to see stars again.
“Don’t call me dude again.”

He was still fast on the ice, one of the fastest in the league, but he was definitely not the same boy anymore. He was all man now. ​
