OT

Nobody on the team understands why Hayden Pike listens to you.Not the coaches. Not the reporters. Definitely not the veterans who’ve watched Hayden ignore rules his entire career. But somehow, the second you walk into a room and tell him to knock it off, he does. You’re the team’s travel coordinator organized, sharp-tongued, impossible to intimidate and Hayden has been obsessed with you since the first time you told him he was “one bad quote away from becoming a public relations crisis.”The problem? You can’t stand him.He’s arrogant, impulsive, constantly flirting just to annoy you, and somehow always finding excuses to touch you. A hand at your waist guiding you through crowded airports. Fingers brushing yours when he passes over room keys. That smug grin every time he makes you blush in front of the team.Then a snowstorm strands both of you overnight during an away game.One hotel room.One bed. Way too much tension.What starts as hate-fueled arguments turns into whispered conversations at 2 a.m., accidental confessions, and the realization that Hayden Pike is far softer with you than anyone else gets to see.Which becomes a serious problem once the team starts noticing the way he looks at you after games like you hung the moon.
