I hated seeing you go down. (Jessie Fleming)

Warning: Head Injury

Ever since you were a little girl you dreamed of being on the national hockey team for canada. That dream came true when you got accepted in, you made lots of friends as soon as you joined, everyone was very welcoming. People always said you were one of the good ones, in your eyes the whole team was good. They were supportive and you felt like they were more than teammates. 

You were now 23, that dream of yours was still going strong. You were even more excited to be out there today since your girlfriend, Jessie, was coming to see you play. You had gotten her and the whole Canada Soccer team tickets to come out and see you. You felt nervous at first but once you saw her sitting out there, you felt yourself calm down. 

Everything was going good, you were playing centre forward. The other team seemed to be attacking much more than your team. You saw one of your teammates run towards you, she was going so fast but you kept your eyes on the puck. You knew she was going to pass it to you, which she did. You hit the puck with your hockey stick as you turned around, you kept looking down at the puck as you got closer to the goal. 

You looked up for a second and saw one of the opposing players going right at you, the next thing you remember was being on the ground. You looked up and tried blinking but your vision was still blurry. The light shining down at you made your eyes hurt, you shut your eyes and turned to the side. 

You felt a hand come onto your shoulder, you turned a little and squinted your eyes. It was the medical crew, they were trying to turn you around but you swatted their hands away. 

"Y/n." you heard, it was still a little blocked out but you could hear them calling your name out. You were holding your head, groaning and moaning. The pain was unbearable, you couldn't think straight. You couldn't really think at all, everything was everywhere. Your vision was blurry and you couldn't exactly see who was with you.

You opened your eyes fully, still not being able to see clearly, you saw someone come beside you. 

"It's gonna be okay y/n, you're gonna be okay." 

You heard your teammate, Kate. 

You closed your eyes.

You heard a beeping sound, you blinked your eyes opened. You vision wasn't as blurry anymore, you stared up at the ceiling. You weren't at the game anymore.

"Y/n?" you heard someone say, you didn't recognize the voice. You turned your head slightly to the right, there was a girl in a nurse's scrubs. "Hey..." she said gently. "You're at the hospital..but you're going to be okay." she said. "I'm Nurse Offner." the nurse told you. You blinked at her, you were so confused not sure of how you got there and where everyone was at. 

You looked around and looked down, you were wearing a hospital gown as you laid in the. hospital bed. 

"You had a nasty collision with another player....and you got a concussion." the nurse explained. You tried to talk but you had a killer headache, you tried rubbing your forehead but the nurse carefully put your head down. "Can you try to say something for me?" she asked. 

You shrugged and shook your head. "That's okay..we have time, just rest for right now.." the nurse walked over to the door to exit but stopped as soon as she reached the door knob. "Oh- i almost forgot, there's a girl here...by the name of jessie? We don't allow random visitors into the rooms without the patient's consent. Would you like her to come in?" she asked.

"Y-Yes." you nodded. 

She smiled and nodded. 

You laid your head back and closed your eyes, you couldn't bare the light coming from the ceiling. You heard the door open again and you looked up to see jessie closing the door, she smiled and walked over to you. 

"Hey.." jessie said gently. "Jess.." you whispered. "How are you feeling?" she whispered standing next to you. You shook your head slowly and held your forehead. "It hurts.." you said.

"I know, i saw you go down and...i started worrying i had to go down and ask where they were taking you when i saw them walk out with you on the stretcher." jessie explained. "Thank you for coming..." you smiled up at her. "You know i don't mind...i hated seeing you go down like that." jessie looking down at you, she slowly reached down to take your hand. 

"Can i get you anything... we're gonna be here for a while." jessie said. "How long are we here for?" you asked. "Well, i talked to the nurse before you woke up...she said they were going to do some tests to see if there is any serious brain damage and after that they said they were going to keep an eye on you. So....about a day?" jessie shrugged. 

"A day? You've got to be kidding me..." you scoffed and laid your head back gently. "Hey, they want to make sure there's nothing worse...." jessie rubbed the back of your hand. "I know..." you sighed. "You want me to go get you lunch? We can eat together.." jessie smiled at you. "Please do...i'm starving." you smiled up at her. 

You heard a knock at the door, you looked behind jessie and saw your teammates peeking through the window blinds. You smiled and looked at jessie. "Looks like you've got some visitors...I'll be right back with your food. I love you." jessie smiled and kissed your hand. 

"I love you too Jess." you smiled.
