Chapter Twenty-Eight   Life's Huge Surprises

Dave reached the top of the stairs and walked down the hallway towards the room 
occupied by Katherine and Jennifer.  He knocked on the barely closed door before 
he walked inside.  Jennifer and Katherine were still cuddled together but 
Katherine appeared to be more relaxed.  They both looked at Dave questioningly.  
He smiled and answered their implied question, "He was gone when I got down 
there."

Both girls looked relieved.  Dave continued, "The party has pretty well broken 
up.  There are only a handful of people left.   Have you decided what you want 
to do?"  Katherine looked at him questioningly as he sat down beside her and 
spoke softly, "Charlie tried to rape you and you clearly said no.  There were 
lots of witnesses and, if you want to press charges, you will definitely have my 
support."

Katherine suddenly looked very afraid.  She had been so abused by Charlie that 
she couldn't think straight.  Dave noticed her change in expression and hugged 
her.  He whispered, "Why don't we take you home and you can talk to your mother 
and decide what you think is best.  I will support whatever decision you make."

Katherine hugged Dave back before he helped her to stand up.  Her top was so 
badly torn it would not cover her breasts.  Her bra was also torn away and she 
tried to cover herself with her arms.  Dave looked at Jennifer who was wearing a 
blouse over a spaghetti strap top.  Jennifer immediately took her blouse off and 
Katherine turned her back as she removed her useless shirt and bra.  She 
buttoned Jennifer's blouse then turned to face Dave.  Dave smiled and put his 
arm out and she quickly moved against his body.  She had so desperately missed 
him and instantly felt safe in his arms.

Jennifer walked behind them as they left the room.  Katherine looked at the 
broken door frame and then at Dave.  He whispered, "I told Darlene I would come 
back and fix that tomorrow."  Katherine nodded understandingly as they moved 
through the door and towards the stairs.

As they walked out the front door, Dave reassured Darlene he would be back in 
the morning.  She smiled and thanked him again.  

The drive to Katherine's house was very quiet.  Jennifer had sat in the back so 
Katherine could be close to Dave.  When the car came to a stop in Katherine's 
driveway, Dave walked around the car and let Katherine out.  Jennifer got out of 
the back and said, "I'll wait for you here.  Katherine, if you want to talk to 
me or anything just call this number."  She put a piece of paper in Katherine's 
pocket.  Katherine hugged Jennifer and thanked her before she quickly moved back 
into Dave's arms.

Dave led Katherine to the front door, opened it, and guided her inside.  Her 
mother was sitting in the living room watching television but as she looked at 
Katherine huddled to Dave she immediately knew something was very wrong.  She 
stood and Katherine immediately began crying and ran into her mother's now open 
arms.  Katherine's mother looked at Dave questioningly.  

He realized that Katherine was not going to able to explain what happened so he 
walked closer to the two embracing women and explained, "We were at a party and 
Charlie attacked her in one of the bedrooms.  She was calling for help and a 
common friend found me to get involved.  I chased Charlie away before he could 
do much - but he did rip her top and bra.  My girlfriend, Jennifer, gave 
Katherine her top to wear home."

Katherine's mother's face was filled with distress and she hugged her crying 
daughter even tighter.  Dave whispered in her ear that was farther from 
Katherine, "Charlie didn't get any farther then tearing her top off but there 
were lots of witnesses so, if Katherine wants to press charges she will get lots 
of support."  

Katherine's mother held out her hand and took hold of Dave's hand.  She mouthed, 
"Thank you, Dave."

He simply nodded and turned to leave; at the door he briefly looked at Katherine 
being comforted by her mother then he walked out.  He thought how lucky 
Katherine was to have a mother who loved her dearly.  Dave walked to the car and 
sat in the driver's seat.  He looked at Jennifer, then leaned over and kissed 
her.  He spoke softly with a lot of emotion, "You are truly special.  Thank you 
for being nice to Katherine."

Jennifer smiled, "Katherine is a very sweet girl.  I kind of know how she felt; 
remember I told you that Alex, my ex-boyfriend jerk, tried to force himself on 
me once.  I felt very violated so I understand how Katherine feels.  It will 
take a while for her to get over it - but hopefully she'll be able to move on.  
I told her what had happened to me and said to call me if she just felt like 
talking."

He whispered, "I love you." then kissed her tenderly again.

As they parted she replied, "I love you, too."

The drive back was fairly quiet as Dave held Jennifer's hand the whole way.  It 
was almost midnight when they arrived so Dave kissed Jennifer goodnight and 
promised to see her in the morning.

Dave had just crawled into bed when the phone on top of the fridge rang.  He 
sprang from his bed and answered it.  Katherine's mother had called to say, 
"Thank you, Dave, for looking after my girl.  She just fell asleep and I wanted 
to call you and say thanks again."

Roger had just walked out the door of his bedroom and Dave covered the phone and 
whispered, "It's for me, Dad.  It's nothing serious; I'll explain everything in 
the morning."  Roger nodded and walked back into his room.  Dave then spoke back 
in the phone, "Is she feeling better?"

Katherine's mother continued, "Yes, she is feeling better already.  She was 
really happy you drove her home.  She has had a rough summer.  I know she 
wouldn't want me to tell you this but I think it's important you know what has 
been going on.  She started dating Charlie less than a month ago.  Her best 
friend Helen didn't like him from the start and Katherine and Helen ended up 
having a fight over it and I don't think they have spoken to each other since.  
About a week ago Helen came to me in private and told me that Charlie was being 
verbally abusive to Katherine and she was worried for her best friend.  
Katherine's soccer coach has also commented that she has not been playing well 
for a couple of weeks and he was worried about her also.  I tried to talk to her 
this week but she wouldn't tell me anything.

"This incident tonight was terrible but hopefully it is enough for Katherine to 
realize he is a loser.  You being there for her was perfect.  I know you aren't 
dating anymore and may never date again but I know she would like to have you as 
a friend and tonight showed her how good a friend you are.  Thank you, Dave."

Dave was pleased Katherine's mother trusted him enough to tell him everything 
that was happening.  He replied, "I hope Katherine and I will always remain 
friends, she is a very special girl."

She finished with, "Thanks, Dave, sorry I called so late."

He answered, "No problem, goodbye."

Dave climbed back into bed.  He thought about Charlie and how he wished he had 
hit him at least once.  Eventually Dave fell asleep thinking about Jennifer and 
how she supported Katherine.  He was also thinking of Jennifer's round curves.

Dave slept in slightly the next day.  He didn't wake until after nine o'clock.  
As he walked outside his parents and Jennifer's parents were sitting at the 
picnic table.  He sat with them and asked, "Is Jennifer up yet?"

After Heather shook her head no, Dave explained what happened the previous 
night.  He concluded by asking, "Dad, do you think your brother, Uncle Robert, 
would help me fix Darlene's door.  I feel bad for busting it in."

Roger immediately reached for his phone, "Let's call and ask him now."  Roger 
dialed the number then spoke into the phone, "Hi Robert, how are you doing?  ...  
That's good.  Do you have some free time later this morning that you could spare 
for Dave?  He had a little incident at a party last night and needs to repair a 
door.  ...  No he's not in trouble.  ...  Yes, I remember Alan's crazy days.  ...  
Okay, that would be great.  Dave will meet you at your house at eleven o'clock."

When Roger hung up the phone he was laughing.  He explained, "Robert reminded me 
of the time Alan had a party and several walls ended up with holes in them plus 
two windows got broken.  Robert fixed the house before Mom got home and he said 
that was how he first got interested in home repair as a hobby.  Since then, as 
you know he built his own cottage.  He laughed how this seemed to bring him back 
to the roots of his interest.  He will be waiting for you at his house at 
eleven.  He said you both should go over to the girl's house immediately and 
determine what will be needed for supplies."

Dave thanked his father before he said he was going for a swim.  He walked back 
into the trailer and put on his swimsuit.  He then went next door and walked 
into Jennifer's trailer.  She was awake and talking on the phone, "Dave just 
walked in.  I'll ask when he's going to town."  Jennifer covered the phone and 
explained, "Katherine wants to know if I will go to the police station with her 
and her mother.  She has decided to press charges and wanted someone who was at 
the party but especially someone she trusted for support."

Dave told her, "I was just going for a quick swim before I go to town to meet 
Uncle Robert to fix the door.  We can go right away if you wish."

Jennifer nodded, "Do you want to go right away?  No?  Okay, I can meet you at 
your house at eleven; is that too late?"  She listened for a reply then said, 
"Good, I'll see you then."

Dave walked to her and kissed her, "Are you up for a swim?"  Jennifer nodded yes 
and walked back into her room to change.

Dave walked to the door and watched as she peeled her nightshirt over her head.  
He felt his dick get hard as she pulled her bikini bottoms on then molded her 
large breasts into her top.  He was used to watching the suit come off - he 
actually found it exciting to watch the bikini being put on.  She walked up to 
him, "See anything you like?"

He kissed her passionately then replied, "I like everything I see.  I wish our 
parents weren't outside; we could get our workout in here instead of at the 
pool."

Jennifer laughed as she took his hand and guided him towards the door.  They 
walked to the pool holding hands.  Dave swam laps for thirty minutes while 
Jennifer sunned herself on one of the loungers.  When he finished, he swam to 
the pool's edge and she got in the pool with him.  They kissed and talked for 
ten minutes before exiting the pool and drying off. 

They showered separately in their own trailers before meeting at Jennifer's 
father's car.  The plan was for Jennifer to drop Dave off at his uncles before 
she went to Katherine's.

Dave and his uncle went to Darlene's house.  Robert remarked how they were 
fortunate that the door trim was a standard colonial style.  The doorframe was 
just made of spruce and after rummaging through the basement for ten minutes 
they found the original paint, it was several years old but Robert said it was 
still okay to use.  

After a quick visit to the hardware store, Dave and Robert finished the repairs.  
Dave paid the $30 bill.  Darlene was ecstatic with the perfect repairs and Dave 
again apologized for the damage.  She thanked him and Robert as they left.  
Robert dropped Dave off at his house and Dave thanked him for the help.  

Jennifer arrived an hour later.  Dave had cooked a spaghetti dinner for them and 
Jennifer explained what happened at the police station.  She further told Dave 
that she invited Katherine to go to a movie with her and Dave that night.  Dave 
looked at her curiously as she explained, "I know from experience that the best 
thing to do is get out and get on with your life.  If you mope around the house 
you will just get more depressed.  I asked her mother first and she approved."

Dave kissed Jennifer again.  Jennifer then explained that she saw Dave's other 
uncle, Alan at the police station and he subtly pulled her aside and told her he 
would call Dave when and if anything happened.  Dave nodded.  As if on queue the 
phone rang and Dave assumed it was Alan.  He rushed to the phone and picked up 
the receiver, "Hello?"

A strange voice with a heavy French accent on the other end asked, "Is Dave 
there, please."

Dave replied, "Speaking."

The man answered, "Dave this is Guy LaPointe junior from the QAI Missiles.  We 
have successfully negotiated a trade for your playing rights.  Do you have time 
to meet with us today?"

Dave was jumping with excitement, "Definitely, What time?

The man replied, "It's two-thirty now; how about four o'clock at our offices in 
the Civic Centre?"

Dave answered very quickly, "I'll be there, thank you."

He ran to Jennifer, "The Missiles got my rights.  They want to meet me today at 
four o'clock.  I have to go find my dress clothes so I look presentable - I 
don't think a golf shirt and shorts would be what they are expecting for an 
interview."

Dave then walked back to the phone, "I should call Dad and tell him I am meeting 
with them."  Dave called his father and told him about the interview.  He 
further told him that Uncle Robert had done an excellent repair job.  Roger 
wished him luck in the interview.

Dave found his dress clothes in his room and was changing into them when 
Jennifer snuck behind him and slid her hands inside his boxers.  She fondled his 
shaft until it became hard before he turned and kissed her passionately.  She 
dropped to her knees and whispered, "You look handsome in that suit.  Our 
parents aren't outside now."  She sucked his quickly hardening member into her 
mouth.  She sucked and stroked him to fantastic orgasm.  As he drove his seed 
deep into her throat he wondered if life could get any better.  

After he recovered he stood her up and stripped her quickly.  He said, "Now I'm 
going to give you what I wanted to give you this morning."  He laid her on his 
bed and moved his head between her legs.  He loved her tangy but sweet taste.  
He licked and fingered her to a slow exciting orgasm.

After she had cum he lay beside her on the bed and cuddled with her.  He 
whispered, "I hope they don't want me to play tonight - I think you just wore me 
out."

She laughed, "You have twenty minutes before your meeting - we better shower so 
you don't smell like sex."  

Dave replied, "I love this smell - but you're right."  They walked to the shower 
arm-in-arm comfortably nude.  They cleaned each other thoroughly before Dave 
returned to his room and dressed for the meeting.

Jennifer dropped him at the Civic Centre and said she would wait at the house 
for his call.

The interview went well.  Dave was surprised to hear he would be paid fifty 
dollars per week and that if he remained with the team for at least two full 
years he would get one year's college tuition for each year he had played.  Dave 
told them that he would not be playing beyond one year because he had received 
numerous golf offers and was planning to follow his dream.  Guy thanked Dave for 
his honesty.  Guy then asked Dave if he was available to practice with the team 
that evening.  Dave asked when and Guy told him six o'clock.  Dave said he would 
make himself available.  Guy further explained there was an exhibition game the 
following day in Halifax - but he didn't expect Dave to play that game.  There 
was another game scheduled on Tuesday in Charlestown, New Dominion with a home 
game against the same Charlestown team on Thursday.  He expected Dave to dress 
for both of those games.

After the interview was completed Dave asked if he could make a phone call.  He 
called Jennifer and she said she would pick him up.  When he got in the car, he 
told her about the practice.  It was a two hour practice but he said they could 
still go to the late show.  Jennifer agreed and when they got to the house Dave 
called Katherine.  He explained to Katherine about the practice but said he 
would still like to go to the late show.  She was happy to go and said she would 
wait for them to pick her up.

Dave went to the basement and dug out his hockey gear.  He looked at his skates 
and wondered how dull they might be.  He didn't have time to take them to the 
sports store for sharpening so he just stuffed them in his bag.  He was really 
excited about getting back on the ice.  He called his father to tell him the new 
schedule before Jennifer drove him to the rink.

Dave felt strange walking into the dressing room.  He didn't recognize anyone 
until John walked out of the trainer's room.  He walked to his friend and 
immediately shook his hand, "Great to see you Dave.  Let me introduce you 
around."  John introduced Dave to most of the players and Dave was very 
surprised to see at least seven other players as tall as or even taller than 
himself.  At six-four Dave was used to playing with smaller teammates but that 
would not be the case now.

The coach Alain Vigneault walked out of his office, which attached to the 
dressing room, and welcomed Dave to the team.  Dave was directed to the trainer 
who supplied him with new gloves, pants, socks, jersey, stick and helmet.  Dave 
thought how he could have just brought his skates because almost everything else 
was supplied.  The trainer asked, "How are your skates?"  

Dave replied, "I haven't used them since May.  I was going to stop and get them 
sharpened but I didn't have time."  

The trainer laughed, "We have a sharpener here.  Give them to me and I'll put 
new edges on them."

Dave opened his bag and handed him the skates.  Before the trainer left he 
asked, "Do you need any other gear?"

Dave replied, "No, thanks."

The trainer turned and walked away.  John put his hand on Dave's shoulder, "We 
get pampered off the ice before they work the shit out of us on the ice.  Come 
on in the get dressed.  Coach will be talking to the team soon."

Dave followed John into the crowded room.  He looked around and there were only 
twenty-five guys left including himself.  He whispered to John, "Did they make 
another cut?"

John answered, "Yes, with you in camp there are only two more cuts to make."

Dave nodded as he pulled on his gear.  He had just pulled on his jersey when the 
trainer whose nickname he learned was Spider, handed him his skates.  He pulled 
on the skates as the coaching staff walked into the room.  Vigneault introduced 
Dave and then went into his pre-practice routine.  Dave was surprised when he 
switched to French and gave almost all his instruction in French.  Dave luckily 
knew a little French and picked out a few words but as Vigneault lead the team 
onto the ice Dave saw John motion him over.  There was a huddle of the English 
speaking players and one of them translated the instructions.  Dave thought it 
strange that Vigneault wouldn't speak in English but then he realized that the 
team was a Quebec-based team the previous year and some of the French players 
probably couldn't speak English.

Dave followed the team on the ice and took a few minutes to get his skating legs 
back.  After a few leisurely laps around the ice he followed John into a corner 
and took five minutes to stretch all his muscles.  They got back on their feet 
and skated hard for a couple laps before Vigneault blew his whistle.  Vigneault 
gave an instruction in French before he blew the whistle again.  John quickly 
explained the drill to Dave as he had heard the instructions before in French 
and already knew what to do.

The whole team skated hard for thirty minutes.  Dave was really sucking wind - 
he forgot how different skating was from swimming and he was almost feeling weak 
from fatigue.  He briefly wished he had not fooled around with Jennifer - he 
could probably use that expended energy now.  

After the various endurance drills the team was called together and Vigneault 
sketched a flow drill on a white board.  The team broke up to separate parts of 
the ice and ran the drill for ten minutes before Vigneault called them in again 
and drew another drill.  This continued for another hour and Dave found his 
timing slowly coming back near the end of the first hour.  He was tired and his 
legs felt like rubber but he pushed himself to keep up.  He was surprised how 
strong the other players were and how easily they pushed him off the puck when 
he first started doing the drills.  He bore down and by the end was actually 
pushing back.

With a half hour left, the coach called the players together and explained how 
the various lines would work on some drills.  He skated to Dave after the 
explanation and started to speak in French but quickly switched to English when 
he saw a blank look on Dave's face.  He told Dave that he would not be working 
him into these drills because they were preparing for the game the next day but 
he wanted Dave to sit on the bench with the players switching in and out of the 
drill.  He wanted Dave to watch the team's breakout and the fore-checking 
systems.  Dave nodded agreement then skated to the bench.

He watched as ten players on the ice went through the drill while the other 
lines sat and watched.  For the first time since the practice started Dave 
looked into the stands.  He was surprised to see several hundred people watching 
the practice.  As he looked through the crowd he spotted Jennifer and right 
beside her was Katherine.  He waved to them and they waved back.  The player 
sitting beside him said in very broken English, "Don't let coach catch you 
waving into stands or he will skate your ass off to break that bad habit.  He 
says everyone needs to concentrate on the ice."

Dave nodded understandingly and resumed watching the team practice.  As the 
practice ended Vigneault called the team together, he told them to get a good 
night's sleep and not to miss curfew.  He told them to be ready for a tough game 
in Halifax the next day.  He then led them off the ice.

As Dave sat down one of the assistant coaches walked up to him, "Coach wants to 
see you in his office as soon as you finish showering."  Dave nodded and moved 
quickly so he wouldn't keep the girls waiting.  

He showered as fast as possible even though his legs were still tired from the 
tough practice.  He dressed and then knocked on the coach's door.  He heard a 
loud, "Entree!"

He walked in and Coach Vigneault was sitting with his two assistant coaches.  He 
introduced them before he told Dave of his expectations for him.  He told Dave 
that he expected one hundred and ten percent in every game and every practice.  
He explained that based on scouting reports Dave was expected to be a scorer and 
a playmaker but because of his physical size and hard nosed style of play he 
would also have to play very physical.  Dave nodded and said he would try his 
hardest.  The coach asked Dave if he had any questions.  Dave asked, "You 
mentioned that there is a curfew tonight.  I was supposed to go to the show with 
my girlfriend.  What time is curfew?  And am I included."

Vigneault laughed, "Normally all players are included in the curfew but I will 
make this one exception for you.  Make sure you have fun with your girlfriend 
tonight because you will not see much of her for the next three weeks.  We have 
a very busy schedule planned and you will need to spend some extra time in the 
weight room to get your strength up - this is not midget hockey anymore."  Dave 
nodded and thanked the coach.

John was waiting for him outside the office and he patted Dave on the back as 
they walked out of the dressing room.  John asked, "Are you tired?  Practices 
aren't quite the same are they?"

Dave immediately replied, "No, unbelievably harder.  I'm exhausted."

John nodded, "They get easier after a while."

Dave walked out of the dressing room and saw Jennifer and Katherine waiting for 
him.  He walked to them and kissed Jennifer.  Katherine hugged him as he told 
John he would see him the next day.  John looked at him quizzically but didn't 
ask why Katherine was with him and Jennifer.

When they got in the car Dave sat in back and Katherine looked over the seat and 
smiled at him, "I love watching you on the ice.  You are so graceful."

Dave thanked her but told her he didn't feel too graceful today.  He told them 
both about the curfew and how it sounded as if he would not have much extra time 
over the next week.  Jennifer was a little disappointed because it was her last 
week on QAI but she was happy he was enjoying the hockey.

The show they went to was a love story.  Dave sat with a girl on each side.  He 
put his arm around Jennifer during the show.  Near the end he felt a hand take 
hold of his other hand and he looked at Katherine who smiled at him briefly then 
turned back to the show as she held his hand.  Dave motioned to Jennifer and she 
looked at the hand and just winked at him and gestured that it was okay.

After the show Jennifer drove to Katherine's house and once there she told Dave 
to walk her to the door.  Dave opened Katherine's door and escorted her to the 
house.  As they reached the door Katherine hugged Dave, kissed him on the check, 
then scampered into the house.  Dave walked back to the car in a fog.  

As soon as he sat down he looked at Jennifer and asked what was going on.  
Jennifer silently pulled carefully out of the driveway but during the drive back 
to North Beach she explained everything to Dave, "After I dropped you off at the 
rink I drove back to your house and Alan called.  He said that Charlie was taken 
in and he had confessed to everything.  He was released in his parent's custody 
but they very really upset with him and he was being enrolled in an alcohol-
abuse program immediately.  

"I called Katherine and asked if I could come see her.  I wanted her to know 
that she would not have to go to court or anything.  We had a long serious talk 
and I knew right away that she still loves you deeply.  I thought I would be 
jealous of her but I'm not.  She is a really sweet girl and I know you care for 
her too.  We talked a lot about you and I told her that you had explained that 
if both of you were still available when school started that you might get back 
together.  I told her that you and I had decided at the start of the summer that 
we would not try to do a winter-long relationship again.  I told her I was even 
okay with her flirting with you a bit over the next week until I go home.

"She thought I was crazy when I told her I loved you dearly and wouldn't try to 
make you be alone all winter again.  It wasn't fair to either of us.  I also 
told her that in just twenty-four hours I had grown to like her a lot and hoped 
that she would get back together with you after I went home."

Dave looked at his girlfriend stunned.  He loved her so much that, had she 
wanted to stay together for another winter he was willing to try again.  He 
thought about the conversation he had with his father and the first thought that 
came to his head was "set boundaries".

He took Jennifer's hand and told her he loved her.  He then asked, "Are you sure 
about this.  I am very happy with just you and if you want me to remain true to 
you all winter, I will."

She chuckled, "I know you would but I think we learned our lesson last year, 
don't you?"

He nodded and continued, "If you're sure than we should set some boundaries.  
You told Katherine she could flirt with me but how far can I go?  I don't want 
to upset you."

She smiled, "You can go as far as the two of you like.  I'm only here for nine 
more days then I'm moving back to Edwardton.  I promise I won't get jealous of 
Katherine, I really like her and who knows maybe all three of us can have some 
fun together."

Dave felt his dick lurch with excitement but then he suddenly remembered 
Charlie's words, "I'm tired of you holding out on me."  From that he estimated 
that Charlie had not made love to Katherine so she was likely still a virgin.  

He looked at Jennifer and explained what he was thinking, "Katherine was a 
virgin when we met and she was still a virgin when we separated in June.  She 
offered to give me her virginity once when I first broke up with her she thought 
she could win me back with sex but I didn't want to make love to her because she 
was hoping it would keep us together - that was not a good reason.  Something 
Charlie said last night tells me she is probably still a virgin.  I doubt she 
will want to be with both of us."

Jennifer just smiled, "You never know."

Dave laughed as they changed the subject to hockey.  He talked about the road 
trip the next day and even though he wasn't dressing he had to attend.  He said 
the bus was leaving at eight o'clock and he had to bring his gear for the 
afternoon skate in Halifax.

As soon as they pulled into the campsite Dave kissed Jennifer goodnight and went 
to his trailer.  His father was waiting up for him and Dave told him all about 
the first practice.  Roger said he would have to arrange with Alan to go to the 
game in Edwardton on Tuesday.  Roger went to bed as excited as Dave.

The next day passed quickly.  Dave got to know more of the players during the 
trip to Halifax but he was amazed that the team was required to remain almost 
totally silent during the bus ride.  Dave watched as some players read books 
while others listened to music.  He thought he would get a lot of studying done 
while he was traveling.  They won the game by one goal and Dave was surprised 
how fast the pace of the play was.  John played really well and didn't look out 
of place in any way.  Dave hoped that both of them would make the team.

Dave told John all about what happened at the party Friday night and how he, 
Katherine and Jennifer went to the show together the previous night.  John was 
surprised but wished his friend luck in trying to please two women at once.

Dave arrived home late and stayed at the house instead of driving to the 
trailer.  John agreed to pick him up at the house for their morning weight 
training session at ten o'clock.

Dave phoned his parents and told them he was staying in town due to morning 
practice.  Roger told him to call Jennifer because she was waiting for him.

Dave called her and they talked for a half hour.  Jennifer told Dave she went to 
Katherine's Sunday soccer game.  She explained that Katherine played really well 
and scored two goals.  Her coach was happy to have his top scorer back.  
Jennifer asked when Dave was coming back to the trailer.  He explained that he 
had weight training from ten to eleven thirty then full practice at one o'clock.  
If she picked him up at three he would go to the campground with her for the 
night.  She said she would pick him up then.

Dave went to bed and slept soundly.  He woke up at eight o'clock and ate a good 
breakfast.  He was relaxing listening to music when the phone rang at nine-
thirty.  He answered and heard a strange voice ask, "Can I speak to Dave 
MacDonald please."

Dave was instantly curious who it was but suspected it must either be another 
scholarship call or someone from the Missile organization.  The man on the other 
end didn't keep Dave waiting as he said, "This is Doug Ross; I'm the President 
of the RCGA.  I am pleased to offer you a great opportunity.  You may not know 
but every year we allow the top two finishers at the Canadian amateur to play in 
our Bell Canadian Open sanctioned PGA event.  Unfortunately our first place 
finisher this year was in car accident on the weekend and even though he is not 
seriously injured, he did break his wrist and won't be able to play.  We want to 
offer his position to you."

Dave was absolutely speechless.  He fumbled with his words before he finally 
asked, "Does that start a week from this Thursday?"

Doug replied, "Yes but the schedule actually starts on Monday with a ProAm which 
you will play as if you were one of the pros.  There is a practice round on 
Tuesday followed by the Championship ProAm on Wednesday.  During that ProAm you 
will play on the RCGA team.  You should plan on arriving on Sunday.  If you need 
a caddy you should book one through us."

Dave was still overwhelmed.  He finally replied, "I would love to play but I 
have to get approval from my parents.  Can I call you back?"

Doug replied, "Of course call me as soon as possible because I need to find 
someone else if you can't make it."

Dave was starting to get his thoughts together, "Oh, I'm almost positive I can 
make it.  I'll call you right back."

Dave took down the number and thanked Mr. Ross before he hung up.  He 
immediately called his father.  Roger answered the phone, "Hello?"

Dave almost screamed into the phone as he blurted out, "Dad!  You'll never guess 
who just called - the President of the RCGA.  He wants me to play in the Bell 
Canadian Open next week with the pros.  The top two amateurs usually get to play 
- but this year the top amateur was in an accident so they offered the position 
to me.  I said I had to get your approval.  Can I go?"

Roger heard the words pour off his son's tongue.  He was trying to digest the 
unbelievable news.  After a very brief pause he replied, "Of course you can 
play.  But what about the Missiles?"

Dave was immediately floored by the thought of his new hockey team.  After a 
brief thought he said, "Dad, you know and the team knows my true love is golf.  
I told them that on Saturday.  I will explain to them that I will practice this 
week until Thursday but after that I need ten days off.  If they won't give me 
the time off I will tell them I quit.  I love hockey but golf is everything."

Roger thought about what Dave said and agreed, "Okay, son, sounds like a sound 
decision.  Go ahead and call the RCGA President back."

Dave called Mr. Ross back and said he was in.  Dave asked about the caddy and 
whether he had to be licensed or a professional caddy.  Mr. Ross said it could 
be anyone but an experienced caddy could help his play.  Dave thanked Mr. Ross 
who promised to book two flights and a hotel room for Dave and one of his 
parents.  Mr. Ross finished his call with, "And one more thing Dave, we have a 
tradition where the top amateur plays the first two rounds with the winner of 
The Masters.  As I'm sure you know Mike Weir won The Masters this year so you 
will be playing with him on Thursday and Friday.  We offered the position to the 
runner-up of the Amateur but he was already partnered with Brad Faxon and Bob 
Tway and didn't want to switch."

Dave hung up the phone and jumped around his kitchen.  He was going to play in 
the Bell Canadian Open and he was going to be playing with Canadian golf 
superstar Mike Weir.  He pinched himself several times thinking he must be 
dreaming.
