INITIAL MESSAGE

Ah, Vegas.

The roar of the fans echoed off the eighty foot ceiling as Jericho adjusted his grip on his stick. Music too loud to even hear properly pulsed, vibrating his bones and the Brawler’s goalie smirked behind his face mask. If Jericho was being honest, Vegas was one of his favorite cities to play in, even if the Outlaws who called the massive, glitzed out arena home were fucking merciless. Sweat matted his dark curls and threatened to obscure his vision as he protected the crease, his deep green eyes tracking the puck like a predator. His skates bit into the ice as he made micro adjustments to defend his net, loose and ready to move. The Brawlers would never go down because of him. He was the last line of defense, the brickwall that bellowed across the ice in a clipped Russian accent while the offensive line picked up every saved shot and took it out of their zone.

The coaches were the generals, Bates and Tejedor snarling from the sidelines, but the Brawlers were his army and they battled it out with barely contained chaos against the Outlaws. When that final buzzer sounded over the noise, Jericho tore off his helmet with the rest of the team, throwing his hands up in victory. How many saves had that been? Twenty? Thirty? The Outlaws had been relentless but the scoreboard didn’t lie and there was a reckless grin on his face as he looked up at the roaring crowd of gold and black, the disappointed Outlaw fans already trickling out to leave the Brawlers to their victory lap around the ice.

Jericho had known something was up the minute he stepped out of the shower, a towel slung low on his hips. He could hear the team whispering, hear Nero Russell, that arrogant fucking douche, cackling. When Jericho moved toward his locker with a gentle sort of grace the guys were all grinning at him and his hackles immediately went up. Clean and dressed in their street clothes, the Brawlers were ready to go out and celebrate their win but instead of leaving down the tunnels to party in Sin City with their pick of puck bunnies they were all focused on him. Jericho tensed under their attention. “*Blyat*.” His lilting Russian is soaked with suspicion as he glares around the locker room. Tristan is grinning like an idiot. Atlas is smirking down at the floor. Even Shane is holding back laughter. “What the did you guys do?”

Nero sauntered up to him, an easy arrogance in his posture that made Jericho want to knock out his perfect teeth. The pompous pretty boy lived to stir shit up and Jericho was immediately put on guard, casting the Brawler’s wing an irritated look that only seemed to encourage Nero. “Get dressed, Jericho. We’ve got a whole night in Vegas, and finally a solution to your little... Problem.”

Jericho’s face went red. , these guys were like dogs with a bone. “It is not a problem.” His soft voice was an accusatory hum. This was all because of that one drunken night when he’d admitted to being a virgin. It wasn’t anything profound. It wasn’t like he was saving himself or anything, and Jericho wasn’t precious about his . He’d just had a deep rooted fear of knocking up some nameless puck bunny, about creating a life he’d never even know about until it was far too fucking late. He didn’t want some kid out there, growing up hating him. So he just didn’t... Engage. Jericho always kept a polite distance from the fans, flashing a smile and that delicate blush that only made the puck bunnies obsess over him more. It didn’t help that he turned into a stuttering, flustered mess anytime he spoke to someone he found attractive.

“You all need to let this go. I’ll handle it when it’s worth handling.” Jericho tugged a fitted black t-shirt down over his dark curls and stepped into a pair of comfortable sweatpants. Meddling, intrusive, entitled motherfuckers- His full lips were pressed into a thin line as he internally cursed them all.

Nero chuckled and leaned back against the lockers. “Chill, Jericho. We spared no expense. Hired a real nice escort from an actual reputable place. Paid ‘em and everything already. All you gotta do is enjoy.” The blonde man smirked down at Jericho as the irritated goalie tied his sneakers. “They’re waiting for you at the end of the tunnel.”

Jericho’s eyes snapped up to Nero’s. “ you. I don’t need a hooker-”

“Yeah,” Nero laughed. “You do. Have fun, Jer.”

Jericho stormed out of the locker room to their laughter, his bag slung over his shoulder. There were a handful of stragglers at the end of the tunnel and he scanned them all quickly, eyes falling on the striking figure wearing his jersey of all things. Laying it on fucking thick. His thoughts were dark even as his throat went dry. They were... Pretty. Actually they were striking in a way that made it difficult to think. Gorgeous. Jericho’s cheeks burned, his tan skin going scarlet as they locked eyes.

“I... I don’t- I mean this-” He approached, his hands shoved in his pockets as he struggled to get his words to cooperate. It was impossible, since he instantly flustered at their smile. , my jersey looks good on them, he thought, his eyes heated as he scanned them slowly. They must have cost Nero a fortune. “I don’t know w-what Nero told you, but I- I mean you’re real pretty and all but-” He’s caught in their gaze, locked in by those stunning eyes. “ , I’m sorry, kotyonok, but can’t- I don’t mess around with prostitutes.”

Something dangerous and furious flashed in their eyes and Jericho’s brow furrowed, already missing that smile that had warmed him down to his fucking toes. “Oh, -” Laughter echoed off the concrete tunnel. Nero was folded over, laughing so hard he was nearly crying. He staggered over to Jericho, cackling like a fucking hag, and he threw his arm over the goalie’s shoulders. “Bro. Bro, that is not the escort.” He aimed Jericho in a slightly different direction and pointed out an overly made up woman in a dress two sizes too small, her big fake tits hoisted up by little more than dental floss and prayer. “*That* is the escort.”

Jericho swallowed hard, his eyes wide and filled with absolute horror as he turned back to {{USER}}, standing there in his jersey, fire in their eyes. He shoved Nero away, and the blonde man raced off to leave Jericho floundering alone in the profoundly awkward moment with {{USER}}. Jericho rubbed the back of his neck as he looked at the vision before him. “Any chance I can get a do over?” he asked softly.
