Buddy literally looks like one of my classmates lmao except Axel is finer.

As always, if you speak Swedish please correct anything. I use google translate haha

"Vad är det här?" Axel mumbled as he walked into our hotel room to see me intently watching some American TV show called The Office.

"It's called The Office." I smiled as I didn't look away. He laid beside me and put his head in my lap. "Tired?" I joked. He jokingly smacked my face lightly as I chuckled.

My hands found his hair as I suddenly became interested in that over the show. He smiled as I braided a bit of his hair before letting it go and rebraiding it. It has always been something I've done and he's never minded one bit.

"Vi bör göra oss redo. Utkastet börjar snart." I told him as I went to move his head. He whined and refused to move. I laughed and stood up forcefully. 

Axel sat up and glared at me. I rose and eyebrow and he immediately gave me an "I'm innocent" look. I shook my head and went to go and get ready.

I walked out of the bathroom and saw Axel laying on our bed. He looked up and the sound of my heels and his jaw dropped. I giggled lightly and pulled him up.

"Kom igen kärlek." I said. He sighed and nodded. 

We went down the elevator, chatting between each other. The Uber was outside to head to the draft. Once we arrived, we went to our assigned seats and met up with his family. About 2 hours later the draft started. 

By the time the Red Wings walked up once more for the 17th overall I could feel Axel's hand shake slightly and his knee bounce. I placed my hand comfortingly on his knee and my thumb gently rubbed his knee. He sighed shakily and squeezed my hand in a thank you kind of way. Get your head outta the gutter.

"The Detroit Red Wings are proud to present, from the Skelleftea AIK, Axel Sandin-Pellika." They announced. Axel smiled and shot up. He hugged his family before coming over to me and wrapping me in a bear hug.

He kissed the top of my head before walking down to the stage. He shook hands, grabbed his jersey and hat and took a picture. I was a smiling mess as I watched him walk off to the side to do an interview during the few minute intermission.

I told his family after the rest of the first round drafts were over that I'm gonna head back to the hotel and meet them there since I was exhausted. I didn't get much sleep the night before so they said ok and I Ubered back.

After changing into comfy clothing and getting ready for bed, I crawled under the white sheets on the hotel bed and shut my eyes. Just as I was about to fall asleep I heard the hotel door open.

"Lanie?" Axel's voice whispered throughout the dark room. I stayed silent and pretended to be asleep. He smiled lightly and pressed a kiss to my forehead. "Good night, my love." He mumbled.

I smiled at the words as he left to the bathroom and shut the door to shower and get ready for sleep. Just look at us. A couple of Swedes.
