Chapter 34: Game Day Flyers



The next morning Meredith and Tristan woke up when the alarm went off.


"Skate?" Meredith asks.


"Nope there is none.   However me and the boys are going to run and work out in the gym.   Then we are going to spend some time with the kids." Tristan says.


"Okay. I am not feeling good so I am going to lay here."  Meredith says.


"Okay baby."  Tristan says.


He kisses her head before getting up. He then changes into his work out clothes. He kisses Meredith one more time before heading out to the living room.   The boys head out for a run. They run a few miles and then turn around and run back.   They then head down to the gym.


"So where are we going those few days before we have to be in St Louis?" Sid asks.


"Maybe someplace warm." Kris suggests.


"St Bart's is nice this time of year." Jake says.


"Oh that sounds nice." Justin says.


"I am down. A few days to relax on the beach." Tristan says.


"Me like too." Geno says.


"Let's plan it. We can leave after the game tonight. Spend a day and a half there." Sid says.


"Sounds good to me." Kris says.


"Yeah and Taylor will love it." Jake says.


"So will Autumn." Justin says.


"I think all of the girls will like it." Tristan says.


"I agree." Geno replies.


They figure out a plan and book the trip.    They then finish working out before heading back up to the hotel room.   The guys order brunch for everyone.    They then head to shower and get their girls up.    Tristan heads into his room.    Meredith  was curled up with his pillow.   Tristan goes and showers and changes before waking her up.


"Baby its time to wake up." Tristan says.


"Are you back?" Meredith asks.


"Yes I am." Tristan says.


Meredith gets up and gets dressed.   They then head out to the Living room.   Everyone meets there. The food had gotten there and they all sit down eat together.


"Thanks for ordering the food." Madison says.


"Yes and letting us sleep in while you worked out." Nadia replies.


"Yes and thanks Ruth for helping with the kids and setting the food up." Taylor says.


"Yes we appreciate all you do for us." Autumn says.


"Yes we do. That is why we have a plane ticket for you and Claude to wherever you want to go for the nine days we are off and for the all star game." Anna says.


"Yes take a vacation and relax." Meredith replies.


"Oh my god. I have always wanted to go to Ireland." Ruth says.


They gave the tickets to her and booked her flight to Ireland.   Kris then set up tours and other things for her and his dad to do while there.   They finish eating and the guys clean up.


"Okay kids what do you want to do until its time for naps?" Kris asks.


"Dance Dance revolution." The kids all say.


"Well now that should be fun." Sid says.


"And a workout." Geno says.


"Let's do it." Justin says.


"I will do what I can." Jake replies.


"It will be fun." Tristan says.


They set up the game and then they play. The kids were surely beating the adults but it was fun. They play a few rounds until it was time for a nap.   The girls all get the kids settled down for a nap in their fort.    Meredith and Tristan  head to their room.   Meredith  gets his suit ready and then joins Tristan in bed.    They snuggle together falling into a much needed sleep.


A little bit later the alarm goes off and they both get up and get dressed.    Meredith puts on her jersey and her jeans.    Tristan puts on his suit.     Tristan grabs the bag and they head to the living room.     Everyone meets there.     Ruth had the kids up and dressed.    They all head down to the bus.     Once they were all on board they head to the arena. They get off and head inside.    Tristan and the boys head into the locker room.     Meredith and the girls head to find food.    Ruth takes the kids up to the suite.    The girls take the food to the runway. T   hey eat as they watch warm ups.    Thirty minutes later the boys come off the ice.     Tristan comes to Meredith.


"Good luck baby. Please be careful." Meredith says.


"I will and thanks baby." Tristan says.


"I love you." Meredith  says.


"I love you too." Tristan  says.


Tristan kisses her a few more times putting his hand over her belly.    He then  then heads to line up.   The boys take the ice and after the anthem was sung the first period starts.    Tristan was playing his ass off making saves left and right.


"God they are playing sloppy." Madison says.


"I know right like they are already on vacation." Nadia says.


"I know Tristan is bailing them out right now. "Anna says.


"He looks like he is the only one who came to play." Meredith says.


"Exactly." Autumn says.


"He looks good." Taylor says.


The first period ends with the score 0-0. After a brief intermission the second period started. Again the penguins looked like crap. Five minutes into the second Philly scores. The girls groan. The second goes on. Towards the end of the second the Flyers score again.


"Its okay baby shake it off. You are an awesome goalie but you aren't superman and cannot save every shot baby." Meredith says.


"And the defense isn't playing like at all." Nadia says.


"Nope they aren't." Madison says.


"And the offense isn't doing anything either." Taylor says.


"Nope nothing." Anna says.


"This sucks." Autumn replies.


The girls nod their heads yes. The second period ended and after another brief intermission the third started. The penguins picked it up a little bit but couldn't seem to get anything past Elliott. As the period was winding down they pulled Jarry out of net and the Flyers scored an empty netter. The girls groan. The girls head to wait for the guys on the bus. Ruth had already gotten there with the kids.


"So we are flying home and then packing and then heading to the airstrip. " Madison says.


"Yes and then flying to St. Maarten for a little fun and sun." Nadia says.


"A day on the beach with our hubbies sounds like heaven." Taylor says.


"I know and Tristan and Kris can relax before this weekend." Meredith says.


"I am all for it." Autumn says.


"Me too." Anna replies.


Finally the boys all board the bus. They head to the plane and board. Once cleared they take off. Little under an hour later the plane lands in Pittsburgh. The gang gets off the bus and heads to the car. They head back to Madison and Kris's. Once there everyone parts ways.    Tristan and Meredith head to their house.    Meredith packs for her and Tristan.    A little bit later Tristan carries the luggage down and puts in into the car.    Meredith joins him and they both get in.   They head to the airstrip. They park.     The rest of the gang meets and parks. The boys get the luggage on the plane and the girls get the kids on board.   Once everyone was on board they take off for St. Maarten.


"Get some rest guys." Kris says.


"Yes cus we will need it for tomorrow." Sid says.


"Its going to be fun." Jake says.


"Yes it will be." Justin says.


"I can't wait." Tristan replies.


"Me too." Geno says.


They get comfortable and snooze the whole flight to the island.   A little bit later they land in St. Maarten. They get off the plane and onto the shuttle that took them all to their little villa. They head inside.    Meredith  and the girls build the kids a fort and then lay them down in it without waking them up.    Tristan and Meredith  head to their room.    Tristan  sits the luggage down and Meredith hangs up his suits.   They then get ready for bed.


"Get some rest baby cus we have a fun day planned.   Then we have a half a day here on Thursday before we head to St. Louis." Tristan says.


"I can't wait." Meredith says.


"I love you baby goodnight." Tristan says kissing her.


"I love you too, goodnight." Meredith  says kissing back.


One kiss lead to another and they end up making love a few times before falling asleep snuggled together.
