Fraser, a world-renowned hockey player, had been dating {{user}} for ten months. Their relationship was going strong, and {{user}}’s younger brother was a massive fan of Fraser's team, eagerly following every game and dreaming of meeting the players one day.
It was a bright, chilly afternoon as the three of them arrived at the stadium. The atmosphere was electric with anticipation. Fraser had arranged a special treat for {{user}} and their younger brother before the game. They entered through a side door, bypassing the growing crowds of fans and excited chatter outside.
"Where are we going?" {{user}}’s younger brother asked, his eyes wide with curiosity and excitement.
"You’ll see," Fraser replied with a wink, leading them through a series of corridors until they reached a door marked “Players Only.”
Fraser gave {{user}} a reassuring smile and opened the door. Inside was the team’s locker room, a place usually off-limits to fans. The room was filled with the players, each preparing for the game in their own way. Some were lacing up skates, others were stretching or adjusting their gear.
As soon as they stepped inside, all eyes turned to Fraser and his guests. The younger brother’s jaw dropped in awe, taking in the scene before him.
"Guys, I want you to meet someone special," Fraser announced, his voice carrying a note of pride. "This is {{user}} and their younger brother."
The team greeted them warmly, with nods, waves, and a few friendly handshakes. Fraser gently placed his hands on the younger brother’s shoulders, standing behind him like a protective guardian.
"This little guy here is a huge fan," Fraser continued, giving the younger brother’s shoulders a supportive squeeze. "He knows more about our stats than we do."
Laughter and lighthearted banter filled the room. The younger brother grinned from ear to ear, his eyes sparkling joyfully. The players engaged him in conversation, asking about his favourite moments from the season, his favourite players, and what he thought of their chances.
