You watched as your best friend Josh Allen threw another touchdown pass. "Touchdown... Stefon Diggs! What an amazing throw by Mr. Josh Allen!" the older, male announcer exclaimed from his booth in Highmark Stadium. You and the other Bills fans jumped to their feet and cheered for the six points the wide receiver had just scored.
"Wooo! Go Bills!!" you cheered alongside the other Bills fans.
When game ended and you headed towards the field entrance. The security knew you and Josh were very close so they let you onto the field without a question. You start to run up to Josh but stop dead in your tracks. Josh was hugging and kissing his girlfriend, one of the Bills' cheerleaders.
"Y/n! How are you?" Josh said to you with his girlfriend tucked underneath his right shoulder.
"Hi Josh. Hi Hailey." You said in an unenthusiastic tone. You had a liking for Josh for the longest time but you had never told him assuming it would break your friendship. Now since he has a girlfriend, you don't have to worry about it.
"Well, I actually have to get going. Just stepped down to say hi and good game. See you two lovebirds later!" The fake enthusiasm slipped right through your teeth as you spoke to the couple. You are about to walk off the field when Josh's teammate, Stefon Diggs, walks up to you.
"What's a pretty girl like you doing on the field without a pass?" he asks you.
"Well hello to you too. I actually came to see my best friend, Josh Allen. It seems like he's a bit too busy with others to talk to me, though."
"Josh isn't that type of person. He would one hundred percent want to see his best friend. Maybe I could make up Josh's actions for him by buying you a coffee sometime?" The wide receiver asked me.
"That would be really nice, actually. Well, I gotta go. Bye!" I smiled towards the kind hearted man as I walked towards the exit.
"Wait, I never got your name. I'm Stefon." I turned towards his voice.
"I know. My name is Y/n." I tell him.
"What a beautiful name." You blush at his statement and actually head for the exit this time.

You were at a Bills' game to watch your best friend, Josh, but more importantly your new talking stage, Stefon. After the game, you went onto the field as you would normally do. Josh and Hailey had recently broken up so you were helping Josh through it. He had found out she was just dating him for his money and fame. Once he saw that, he decided to break things off with her.
Suddenly, Stefon grabbed the mic and stood in the middle of the field. You felt eyes burning into your back. You looked back to see Josh staring at you. Josh had been acting really weird lately. He has been more flirty towards you and would get really jealous when you and Stefon would hang out.
"Sorry for interrupting y'all's time but I just wanted to say that I have had the opportunity to meet and hangout with one of the sweetest girls I think I have ever met. This has taken me a lot to say this but, Y/n, will you be my girlfriend?" You had this smile plastered across your face. You were about to say yes in front of thousands of Bills fans when you looked back at Josh. He had the saddest expression on his face. You loved both Josh and Stefon, but, you loved Josh more.
You go up to Stefon and say into the mic, "I would like to discuss this privately with Stefon. Thank you." You and Stefon walk into the locker room and sit on the bench.
"Stefon, I love you. I really do. It's just... I love someone more." Stefon looked hurt but was understanding of you.
"I understand. Now go and get your man!" Stefon already knew who I was talking about. I gave him a big hug and walked out to the field. You grab the mic from someone.
"I'm sorry to whoever I took this mic from. Anyways, hi. I'm Y/n, the one Stefon was talking about. Stefon is such a great friend but there's someone else who I love more than just a friend." I look back and smile at Josh who is already looking at me.
"I love someone that you all know. He is a pretty big part of this team. He has some weird facial hair. But, I just know him as my best friend. So, I don't really know how to ask this but Josh, would you ever want to go out sometime? More than friends, though." You said as you looked him in the eyes. He had walked to you and was standing directly in front of you.
"I would love that." Josh said. You turned the mic off and placed it on the ground. You wrapped your arms around Josh's neck and he did the same. Josh leans down and places a passionate kiss on your lips. You kiss back just as passionately.
"Woooo! My girl getting it!" Stefon yelled. You and Josh look over to Stefon and smile. You mouth "thank you" and he mouths back "anytime" and throws a wink in there.
"At least take me out to dinner first. Jeez, Allen."
"Now there's the Y/n I know. The one I love." He says while placing a kiss on your forehead.
"Also, about dinner, my house: 8. You are driving yourself too."
"Ok, Allen. What do I wear?"
"Anything, but a dress would be the best option."
"Ok. See you then." You walk into the locker room with security. You hear Josh's teammates cheer him on, Stefon being the loudest.
"Boys." you say, smiling.
