abbey's pov

i attend ohio state university in my senior year. i play volleyball and run track.

but today is not about me , it's the men's basketball championship , and my boyfriend, jimmy, happens to play for them. so i had to show up and support.

i never missed games, voluntary atleast . sometimes volleyball or all day track meets would conflict but anytime i got a break i would be constantly asking what was going on.

i wasn't wearing anything crazy , just an ohio uni shirt, black pants , and some jordan 1 mid metallic reds . my hair was down with a couple white and red clips.

i sat pretty close to the floor, but not sideline seats. i was sitting with friends and family. the schottenstein staduim is really big and that was perfect since many, many people were here .

i scrolled through instagram, liking and commenting on my timeline waiting for the game to start.

about 30 minutes later after all the team introductions and things of that nature, the intense game was finally started.

——

the score was currently 90-89, with roughly 10 seconds on the clock. the tension was thick enough to cut it with a knife.

we were down, the whole game was back and forth, back and forth. nail biting moment after the next.

i was scared, i knew how hard the team had worked and how bad jimmy wanted this, especially for his senior year.

ohio was using another timeout to discuss the last play. whatever the hell they're talking about, it better work. i tapped my foot on the ground , anxious.

they broke huddle returning to the court. the next play rejoiced , and the time seemed to move so fast but slow at the same time. second after second passed, but the tense feeling made it feel slow .

i knew they were trying to run as much time out as they safely could so the other team couldn't score. the ball moved all around the court i could barely follow.

after being passed around it was passed to jimmy, who was half court. i whipped my head over to the time , seeing 3 seconds in big red letters quickly diminishing.

jimmy quickly scoped his area, putting his form and shooting the final shot to the hoop. the whole stadium stood watching the ball, you could hear a pen drop in this room.

swooshhh , 90-92.

the loud buzzer beater shook the stadium while screams did the same. i turned to my best friend as we jumped in excitement.

the team did that thing where they run and piled on whoever had the buzzer beater. i honestly loved those moments of love and support from teammates.

i couldn't wait until i could get to jimmy.

the crowd died down a bit ,enough for announcements and interviews to come on the microphone.

"is their anything you want to say." a reporter asked jimmy.

"uh, i'm so happy , i want to say thank you to everyone who had even a little contribution to this , good work to the other team . we worked hard for this. i want to thank my parents and especially my girlfriend, abbey. i love you! thank you." he put his hand up and pointed to me , blowing a kiss.

i stuck my hand out and 'caught it' mouthing "i love you" back. immediately people started to aww and gush . i pouted, trying not to cry.

we never said i love you to each other before and it was already such a special moment anyway.

i bounced around waiting for jimmy on the sidelines. he was probably off cooling after the game and talking, which is what he usually did after games for a couple minutes anyway.

i finally spotted him at the same time he saw me. a smile spread across our faces as i jogged over to him. i didn't want to be dramatic and cliche and run and jump on him.

he wrapped his arms around me , boldly me tightly. i looked up and kissed him .

"congratulations , i'm so proud of you!" i couldn't stop smiling, i honestly was beyond proud i didn't even know how to express it.

"thank you, baby." he kissed me again, "let's go out."

he grabbed my hand , pulling me to the exit. i realized , i wasn't sure if he saw me in the crowd.

"oh, and by the way, i love you too."

he turned back around and pulled me into another tight hug, tighter than before.
