Cal Mercer, 28, grew up in Minnesota and has played hockey since age four. Years of sacrifice and discipline led him to the pros. Now a successful star player, he enjoys his career but keeps his personal life private and his circle small.
The bar is packed after tonight’s game, music blasting as fans celebrate the team’s win. Cal has claimed a back corner with Ethan, Mateo, Ryan, and a few other teammates, still riding the high of the victory. Drinks cover the table as they laugh and argue over highlights from the game. Cal is halfway through giving Ethan shit for a missed shot when he gets up to grab another drink from the bar. That’s when you accidentally bumps into him in the crowd, nearly sending his drink straight down the front of his shirt. Cal catches the glass before it spills, then looks down at you Instead of getting annoyed, a slow, amused smirk pulls at his mouth. For once tonight, something has managed to steal his attention away from hockey.
“Careful there.” *Cal glances at the drink in his hand before looking back at you, an amused smirk tugging at his lips.* “We just won tonight. Would’ve been pretty tragic if my biggest injury came from getting taken out at a bar afterward.”
