Athena's POV:
It's been about a week since I saw Dean. The last time I saw him was after our steamy shower sex. He had to wake up early to head back to his parents, then back to school. Keith and Dean's sister, Sarah, had gone out on a few dates. She is all he talks about!
Before Dean left, he left me a sweet note. I still couldn't stop thinking about how he called me his girlfriend. Maybe it was the alcohol talking.
Dean's Note:
Morning, sleepy head. I didn't want to wake you up because you looked so peaceful... and it was also a little too early for your sarcasm;)
Call me when you wake up,
Dean.

I put his note in my wallet that day, and haven't stopped looking at it ever since. I hate how easily he can give me butterflies in my stomach.
Dean and I talked about me coming to his first football game of the season, but we had to think hard about this because we didn't want anyone to know we were seeing each other just yet. We had to somehow tell my brother first.
Dean decided to invite my whole family to his football game which I thought was a great idea. That is, until everyone said yes. It would've been better if it was just Keith and I, so we could tell him we were seeing each other without an audience.
I should've known my mom and dad would go. My dad is practically in love with all of my brother's friends. Like father like daughter.
He loves going to their games, so when he asked everyone, my dad's face lit up. Although this man is a stubborn old dog, he loves his sports.
I love that my family supports him so much, but for now, I have to make sure to keep our relationship on the down-low.

It was finally game day. I loved watching my Dean play. However, I hated seeing him hit the ground so hard, time after time. He was the wide receiver so it was fairly easy to spot him, as he was on the outside of the group of men playing.
The game was over about two hours later. Not to my surprise, Dean's team had won. He was a great football player. He had determination and discipline and that made him even more attractive than he already was.
After the game, we all got to take pictures with him on the field. Dean, not so subtly asks for a picture with him and "his biggest fan" as he put it. We talked for a moment and decided to all go out to eat once Dean was done in the locker room.
Dean had specifically requested we go eat at my favorite Mexican restaurant, the one where we first ate at together a few weeks ago. Although no one knew why he requested that place, I knew he was just doing it for me. Oh, the things I am going to do to this man.
