The Beginning to the End

Capitals

"So we're here in the city where all the magic happens."

"Disney World?!"
Ricki asked enthusiastically.

"No...Washington D.C! Our nations capital!" Ricki just looked at her friend with a shake of her head.

"After an exciting time in Philly we made the two and a half hour drive to Washington D.C."

"While we're here, we're going to so come historical tours 'cause I mean, what else is there to do in? Oh that's right...go see the Washington Capitals!"
Bobbi cheered.

"Don't do that."

"Alright, we'll then, we're going to check into our hotel and get some shut eye before our adventurous day tomorrow."

"You're such a nerd."

"Be great."
Bobbi ended monotone.

It was late when the girls arrived at their hotel and practically collapsed once they made it to their room.

"My ass hurts." Bobbi complained falling onto her bed.

"Well lucky for us we'll be walking the next few days so your ass can get some rest." Ricki told her.

"...Great."

Both got ready for bed and planned to wake up at 9:30...They didn't get up until 11:30. Bobbi called the shower first and got in quick.

As she waited, Ricki pulled out the Flip for their next segment, "Good morning everyone. We seemed to have over slept and will be starting late on our adventure. Once we shower and change, we'll try and take over the capital. We'll come back when we've made it to the city. Stay great my friends!"

"Bobbi, hurry up!"

Once all changed, the girls walked the streets of Washington D.C taking just as many pictures has they did when they were in New York City.

They had clips of their adventures in front of the White House, Lincoln Memorial, different military sights, and the Smithsonian and the different museums in the area.

But the funny thing about touring around the city, when the girls were walking around the Smithsonian they noticed two guys around their age glancing at them every couple minutes, "Do you see them?"

"What the hell are they looking at? I don't have a stain on my pants do I?" Bobbi asked, turning her body to look at her backside.

"No you're fine." Ricki assured her friend, "They're kinda cute." Ricki and Bobbi looked over at the guys just a few exhibits away. Both very tall, one with thick brown hair, and the other a curly blonde. When the guys noticing Ricki and Bobbi watching them, they smiled. The girls looked back at their exhibit, blushing.

"Come on, let's keep going." Bobbi said, curious if the boys would continue to follow them. It might have been slightly creepy but the fact that these guys were very good looking, it just made a girls heart skip a beat.

Just as Bobbi thought, the two guys would follow them but trying to not look at if they were. Ricki and Bobbi slowed their pace to see if these guys were man enough to approach them. And when they did, both girls had to keep in check.

"Hey there." The blonde said, his eyes on Bobbi.

"Hello."

"Enjoying the Smithsonian?" He asked.

"It's very educational. You?"

"It's alright. But I don't think anything can compare to the view we've got." He flirted, "I'm Jeremy. This is my friend Ian."

"I'm Ricki and this is Bobbi." The boys smirked obviously catching the Will Ferrell character name.

"Have you two been to the Smithsonian before?" They shook their heads no.

"We've never been to D.C." Bobbi told him.

"Then how about we give you a tour? If you don't mind of course." The girls shrugged, completely forgetting about 'stranger danger' and toured the rest of the Smithsonian, and whatever else D.C had in store for them, with their new friends.

---

"This was fun. Thanks for showing us around." Ricki said to Jeremy and Ian after their many hours of walking around and exploring the city.

"You know, there's a few us going to this club tonight. You two are welcome to join." Jeremy invited.

"We can come pick you girls up." Ian said.

"Sure, why not." The guys smiled. Bobbi gave Jeremy her number and the name of their hotel.

"Cool, then we'll pick you up at 9:30." With a promise to meet them in the lobby, they couples went their separate ways.

"Can you believe that just happened?" Bobbi asked.

"This calls for a Flip shot," Ricki pulled out the Flip and turned it on them, "Long time no talk. Sorry about that. We were being shown around D.C by some very nice young men."

"Sorry mom. I know stranger danger but...o boy we're they good looking."
Bobbi gushed.

font=comic-sans]"So we're on our way back to the hotel for some room service dinner and then we'll be getting ready for a night on the town with our new friends. You probably won't see us in the morning, so good night and be great!" Ricki closed out.

At the hotel, they girls ordered room service and watched some TV, turning on Glee at 8:00. The girls power showered and dressed, putting on the appropriate amount of make-up, and their hair styled down; Ricki's wavy and pulled back by the sides and Bobbi's curled into big ringlets.

Of course the girls took a couple of pictures and tweeted about their escapades with a quick pic of themselves. Looking back at their pictures, both their phones buzzed signaling they got some Tweets.

Rick and Bobbi laughed loving how their new friends still followed them and their journey. They defiantly missed everyone they met and are happy to call all of them their friends.

Yeah, we're meeting some new friends.

1 New Text Message: Tyler Seguin
Who?

Reply: Ricki Martin
Just some new friends we met in DC. No big deal

1 New Text Message: Tyler Seguin
Okay...then have fun. Ricki frown at Tyler's messages.

"Everything alright?"

"Tyler asked if I was going out tonight."

"Yeah so?"

"He didn't seem happy about it."

"Yet he can go out and party? Don't worry about it Ricki. I mean, we're going out to have a good time, maybe flirt with more good looking men but we're harmless. There's nothing to freak out about." Bobbi told her, "Now come on, Jeremy texted saying their downstairs."

Both grabbed their clutches with the appropriate necessities for a night out and took the elevator down to the lobby.

The girls couldn't help but smirk when Jeremy and Ian spotted them from across the lobby of the hotel. And neither of them could doubt how good looking the guys looked dressed in jeans and button downs, sleeves rolled up to their elbows.

"Ladies, looking amazing."

"Not to bad yourselves." Bobbi flirted with a wink. Jeremy smirked and placed his hand on the small of her back and led her to his car.

On the way Jeremy said they had some friends already at the club in the VIP section. Bobbi and Ricki smiled, excited for the slight star treatment.

At the club, Jeremy waved to the bouncer who let us in immediately and we made our way to the VIP section. The place was bouncing with the rockin' music. People gathered the dance floor moving their bodies to the rhythm of the beat. The bar was crowded with people sitting and talking to each other as they sipped their desired poison.

In the VIP section on the second level, which looked over the dance floor below or opened up to a balcony area, was just as crowded. All of the booths were filled with large groups of party-goers. Jeremy and Ian led the girls to one of the larger booths in the back where a variety of people were laughing and having a good time. The boys introduced their new friends and the rest of the time flowed perfectly.

Ricki and Bobbi talked to everyone in the little group; flirting with the guys, complimenting the girls attire. If watching from afar it would have come across as if everyone knew each other for years and were partying together.

The table had ordered a few pitchers of beer but that was fading fast, causing everyone to buy their own drinks at this point. So after numerous dances with the guys in the group, Ricki and Bobbi went back to the booth to order some drinks and to rest their feet.

Everyone that was part of their group was all on the dance floor, working off all the beer they had consumed in the hour or so that they had been here, giving the girls some time to talk(as good as you could in a loud club), "Have you heard from Segs lately?" Bobbi asked Ricki while they waited for their drinks.

"I haven't checked. I doubt he's sent anything."

"Forget him Rick, he's got something up his ass."

"Here are your drinks ladies." The waiter said, setting our glasses down. Bobbi was about to hand him some cash when he shook his head, "Already paid for." He nodded his head to the only other large booth in the club. Ricki and Bobbi looked to their right to see five guys all watching them. They smiled and raised their glasses in a cheer. The girls did the same as a thank you and took of sip from their free beverages.

"Do they look familiar to you?" Ricki asked, occasionally stealing glances across the club.

"They do but I can't put my finger on it."

"Hello ladies." As if they knew the girls were talking about them, the five men from across the room came over and stood before their booth. The light bulbs over Ricki and Bobbi's heads went off. "These seats taken?" Both shook their heads and watched as the last people they thought would sit beside them. "You ladies having a good time?" Ricki and Bobbi smirked. From across the club, it was difficult to see them but as they sat beside them, it wasn't hard to hit the nail on the head with this one.

"Yeah, this place is nice." Ricki answered.

"You've never been here before?" The same man asked.

"We're not from around here." Bobbi told them. All of them seemed to relax a little bit.

"Where are you from?" Another asked.

"New York."

"And what brings you to D.C?"

"Business."

"Are you two government spies? Can't tell us what you're doing or you'll have to kill us?" The first guy joked.

"How 'bout we just give you our names? Play it safe."

"Fair enough."

"She's Ricki, and I'm Bobbi." She introduced.

"I'm Mike. This is Ovi, Backs, Karl, and Alex."

"Nice to meet you all."

The group of six sat and talked, ordering more drinks and laughing a little harder with each one. The girls knew exactly who these guys were but as the night went on, they played it off that they had no clue. Since first mentioning not being from the area, the four men relaxed, relieved that they could be whoever they wanted to be with these two women.

Ricki and Bobbi were different compared to the usual women that approached these guys; throwing themselves onto their laps, trying to seduce them to take them home. These guys had to make the first move on the girls, and sometimes that was a nice change.

No one from Ricki and Bobbi's original group returned to the table while the five guys were with them. Not that they would be able to sit down and join the conversation. These five guys weren't small, and took up a great portion of the curved booth. Karl and Backs had to toss their arm over behind the girls just to make more room. Not that the girls were complaining.

The girls had a couple more drinks but switched to water before the night got too tipsy.

"Water? You girls sure know how to take care of yourselves." Mike commented.

"Can't get too carried away." Ricki told him.

"Yeah, Green. Can't have drunk spies, now can we?" Ovi joked.

"So what do you girls have planned for tomorrow night, er...tonight?" Karl asked looking at his very expensive watch.

"We've got work. Sorry boys."

"We'll what about after? Tomorrow, or, today is Backs birthday and we're celebrating. Interested?" Ovi offered.

"We might be able to make it." The guys smiled. Ovi pulled out his phone and started typing on it until he handed it to Bobbi.

"I text you with details." He said.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Looks like that's the end of our tour. It was so good to meet you both. You two are becoming quite the sensation around the NHL." Elizabeth Wodatch, Director of Community Relations, said.

"And it's only our sixth stop." Ricki added.

"Well good luck with the next twenty-four. I hope yo hear from you both." Rick and Bobbi shook Elizabeth's hand and headed back to her office to change their clothes.

"I'd recognize those legs anywhere." A voice said from behind the girls as they passed the locker room. Both turned and smirked when they saw Mike Green approach them.

"Work, eh? Hey boys, come see what I found!" He yelled out. A few guys responded by poking their heads out from the other side of the door.

"What you two doing here?" Alex Ovechkin asked.

"Work." The girls answered with a shrug.

"You two work here now?" Mike asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No, we're just networking." The looks of confusion told Ricki she had to explain the whole road trip and why they're doing it. All of the guys were impressed, nodding their liking to the whole idea.

"So you're staying for the game?" Karl Alzner asked. The girls nodded.

"We're about to change to get ready."

"You still coming out with us? Backs would love it." Ovi said, slapping his teammate Niklas Bactstrom on the back.

"If you want us too. Can't put a damper on the birthday boy's big day." Bobbi flirted causing Backs to smirk.

"Then we'll see you after the game."

"Good luck boys!" The waved before hurrying off to change.

During the game, the Capitals were doing everything they had to do but the shots weren't going in at the end of sixty minutes, sending the game into Overtime. The guys had been playing really well, a real hockey game with physical hits and its inspiring competitive nature had the fans blowing the roof off the in the Verizon Center.

When Jason Chimera got his OT goal in the Caps fans jumped to their feet to celebrate with their winning team. Ricki and Bobbi were no different.

The crowds left the arena while the girls headed to the offices to pick up their clothes. Just as they were heading for their stuff, the guys came out of the locker room still smell and dripping sweat. "You ladies ready to party!?" Ovi cheered.

"Of course. We just need to head back to the hotel to change."

"Wait for us. We take you from hotel."

"Um, okay." So the girls waited for the guys to change and meet them in the lounge. Once everyone was ready, the guys followed Ricki and Bobbi back to the hotel where they led them back to the room. Passerbys in the lobby gave them strange looks as these two young ladies had an entourage of hockey players behind them.

"Hurry up and change!" Ovi ordered once they reached the room. The girls rolled their eyes and grabbed their clothes, changing in the bathroom together not to piss off the impatient captain.

Emerging from the bathroom, the guys whistled and hollered when the girls came into view.

"That bathroom must be magical. They walked in looking good but when they walked out..." Mike teased. Ovi stood up and walked into the bathroom and shut the door. After a few seconds, the door flung open and Ovi stood there making a model pose. Ricki snapped a quick picture before he moved while everyone laughed loudly.

"Are we ready to go yet?" John Carlson asked. Ricki packed her clutch with the necessities and took Karl's offered arm. Bobbi took Nicklas Backstrom's arm and everyone headed back to the cars.

At the club, there were already some of the other Caps waiting with drinks for everyone. Someone even gave Nicklas a birthday pin to wear. Drinks after drinks were passed around along with Ricki and Bobbi's camera for some pictures.

While they sat at the booth, Ricki asked the guys if they could get some footage and they agreed, "Hello everyone! We're here partying it up with none other than the best party team ever...the Washington Capitals!"

"And it's Nicklas Backstrom birthday!!"
The quiet forward smiled at the camera, a slight blush not visible due to the already hotness of the club.

"So you won in overtime in the game, you had a goal, and it's your birthday. Would you say it's been a good day?"

"Yes. It been very good."

"What's one thing you wanted for your birthday?"

"He wants a kiss from Bobbi!"
Mike yelled on the other side of the camera. Ricki practically busted a gut at her friend and the Centers faces. Those that were around cheered "KISS! KISS! KISS!"

Bobbi bit her lower lip, This is slightly awkward. She thought as everyone around them chanted and waited until someone made a move. Shit, what if he doesn't want too? Bobbi didn't know what was going through Nicklas' mind as they both sat there. The thing was, he's just as shy about as Bobbi is. He couldn't deny that Bobbi was a good looking woman. When he and the guys first saw her last night, he couldn't stop glancing over at her, taking in her straightened blonde hair, long lean legs, and the way she looked so down to earth.

When Bobbi finally made eye contact with Backs, he smirked, "This is it." He leaned down and innocently pecked Bobbi's lips and pulled away slightly. Everyone clapped and let out a round of wolf whistles when Back's and Bobbi's lips connected again in a 'not so innocent' smooch.

"Before this gets out of hand and her mom see this. I'm gonna let everyone say goodbye and get back to the party! Say bye!" Ricki turned the camera on the group, who waved, "Stay great everyone!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Did that seriously happen?" Bobbi asked the next morning as Ricki played back the kiss between the shy Center and her friend on the Flip.

"Yes it did. Bobs, that was legit. First, you two were all shy and cute about it, then he just pecked your lips, and after that we couldn't detach the two of you. If I hadn't of threatened you, you might have gone home with him."

"Can you blame a girl?" Bobbi admitted, falling back onto her bed.

"So how are we going to spend our Thanksgiving? Go hit up a nice restaurant or just order awesome room service...or we could get pizza." Ricki asked as she uploaded the pictures and videos onto her laptop.

"I don't care. I just want food."

Since the schedule was tight, the girls had the option of spending the holiday in Washington, or head to Pittsburgh early. Since no matter where they went wasn't going to provide a home cooked meal, they didn't care what happened.

In the silence between the girls, Bobbi's phone began to ring, "Hello?"

"Bobbi! Happy Thanksgiving!"

"You're Russian. You don't celebrate Thanksgiving." Bobbi laughed at Ovi.

"Thanksgiving just excuse to eat. You and Ricki come to Greens house for Thanksgiving. We have party before you leave."

"I don't know where Mike lives."

"I send you address. Leave now! See you soon!" Alex hung up and instantly sent Bobbi Mike's home address.

"Looks like we're spending Thanksgiving with the Capitals."

The girls checked out of the hotel and packed their car, planning to leave straight from Mike's place to Pittsburgh. Once the address was punched in the GPS, the girls were on their way to a home cooked meal...hopefully.

Bobbi and Ricki were greeted by the Captain and were ushered into the house where the scents of a home cooked meal was evident.

"Look who I found!" Alex yelled walking the girls into the living room filled with Capital players. The girls were offered a place on the couch beside Backstrom and Alzner.

"So when do you guys take off for the next stop?" Brooks Laich asked.

"Tonight. The next game is tomorrow and we want to be awake for it." Ricki answered.

"And what's the next stop?"

"Pittsburgh." A unison of groans and 'boos' filled the room, "I'm sure they'd say the say thing when we tell them we came from D.C." She added.

"You tell Crosby I say hi." Alex said.

"How about you tell him?" Ricki pulled out the Flip and pointed it at the toothy grin across the room, "Is there anything you'd like to say Ovi?"

"Hi mom!"
He started with a wave, "Я хочу передать привет всем моим друзьям и семьей обратно. Я просто хочу сказать, что Рикки Бобби не так плохо, как кажется, они являются проблемы, поэтому будьте осторожны. Это два удивительных девушек, но не говорите им, что я сказал. I say hi to all the Penguins. Enjoy new friends. They are very funny. Create chaos in Pittsburgh. получайте удовольствие!"

"Since we have no idea what he just said, we're going to move on to our traditional interviews. We always ask important questions and want to know just what these guys think. Let's start with Ovi."
Ricki got up and sat down next to Ovechkin who gladly put his arm around the camera girl, "If a kid refuses to sleep during nap time, are they guilty of resisting a rest?" Alex let out a laugh as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Why is the Lone Ranger called 'Lone' if he always has his Indian friend Tonto with him?" Ricki asked Mathieu Perreault next. Just like every other time they asked silly questions, the hockey players couldn't answer, unsure of really how to answer.

"Hello Nicklas. How are you?" Ricki asked plopping back down near him and turning the camera on him.

"I'm good."

"That's good. Now, we call know you celebrated your birthday last night so we must ask, does being twenty four feel any different than being twenty three?"
Backs laughed, shaking his head.

"Why don't you tell us how your birthday party went!" Mike Green yelled from the kitchen. Everyone laughed recalling the interesting incident between the birthday boy and the blushing blonde beside him.

"You know, I think I'm gonna go help Mike in the kitchen." Bobbi said, standing up and stomping into the other room.

"Hey Bobbi, what are you doi--OW!! What was that for!?" Mike yelped. Those laughing from before were about to burst a gut just imagining the small blonde hitting the tall defenseman.

"Well before anyone else gets embarrassed or injured, I'm gonna sign off. I'll see you all tonight. Be great!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"We don't want you two to leave. Fuck Pittsburgh and stay with us." Alex whined as everyone stood in Mike's foyer saying goodbye to the girls.

"We can't. We've got to go. But we might cross paths down the road." Ricki promised them.

"You two better keep us updated. We want to see that we're the best team you visit." Mike said.

"Then you'll have to follow us on Twitter. We're constantly updating." Bobbi told them. Mike whipped out his phone and started pressing buttons.

"Done!"

Buzz Buzz Buzz

"@greenlife52 wants to follow us. Really Mike? Really?" The Defenseman shrugged and wrapped Ricki into a hug, lifting her off the ground.

"I'm gonna miss you two! It's been nice having chicks around." His fellow teammates punched him in the arms for his mean joke.

"We'll miss you guys two. It's been fun."

"Do you have everything? Your suitcases? Food? Your GPS?" Ovi asked, going through the checklist.

"Yes mother, we've got it all. Thanks for dinner and everything." Wait...where's Bobbi?, Ricki thought as she looked around the guys to see her best friend at the back of the group with Nicklas. It appeared they were having a private conversation that only had Bobbi's cheeks burning bright red. Bobbi handed, what Ricki guessed, Back's phone and looked up at him. The Center brought her in for a hug, kissing her forehead.

"You all set?" Ricki asked her friend when she finally decided to join her. Bobbi nodded and both walked out to their car, the guys standing in the door way watching.

"What the hell was the intimate moment with Backstrom?" Ricki asked once the girls got in the car.

"It wasn't intimate. It was just saying goodbye."

"I'm pretty sure you can say goodbye when you're more than three millimeters away from him. Did you give him your number?"

"Yeah, he said he'd text me sometime."

"I'm gonna have to lock you up if you're gonna keep catching the eyes of eligible hockey players. It's just gonna make the final decision harder." Ricki told her, starting up the car.

"I know. And I think they know two. I mean, it was only Backs and Marchy that did anything. They understand the situation."

"Well keep it up and you'll break every NHL players heart."

Once the GPS had the address in it, the girls waved one last goodbye to their new friends and headed toward the Steel City.

Another stop on the journey! Hope you enjoyed. The Russian translation is from Google Translation so if it's wrong, blame them. Same with the French. I didn't put what Ovi said because that'll play a part later in the story.

Stay tuned for the next destination!
