"Who're you texting?" I ask.

"My brother, he's getting my new fence put up while I'm here with you." Billie says.

"New fence?" I ask.

"Yeah, my neighbor claimed he saw someone in my yard." Billie says.

"What?" I ask.

"Said they were looking through my window. He shot them." Billie says.

"Oh, damn." I say.

"I don't think he actually saw anything but I don't wanna risk it." Billie says.

"H-He didn't see their face?" I ask.

"Nope." Billie says.

"Mm." I say.

"So..." She says.

"So." I say.

"You're probably not gonna be playing for a while, right?" She asks.

"Doc said two weeks, next time I play will be the All-Star game in Phoenix." I say.

"Perfect. Arizona is super close to California, which means you can meet my mom." She says.

"I don't think that's a good idea." I say.

"Why not?" She asks.

"You seriously think she wants to meet the woman that had to be arrested because she didn't wanna leave her daughter's house?" I ask.

"I can explain all of that, she'll understand." She says.

"You can try." I say.

"Besides, it doesn't matter what they think of you. I'll still love you no matter what." She says.

I smile and she kisses me.

Time Skip

I got released from the hospital a few hours ago and the doctor said I should be under supervision for another day or two. Luckily, I have Billie.

"Can you get me a bottle of water?" I ask.

"Yeah." Billie says.

Billie walks out of the room and I take my shirt off. I open the closet door and pull a hanger out. I take the shirt off the hanger and put my arms through it.

"What's that?" Billie asks walking back in.

"Uh, nothing." I say as I quickly put the shirt on.

"Let me see." Billie says.

"No, it's just-" I say.

Billie lifts my shirt up and I sigh.

"What happened? Why is your waist wrapped?" Billie asks.

"I just took a little spill." I say.

"Y/n." Billie says.

"I tripped and I hit the edge of a table." I say.

"Okay... if you say so." Billie says.

"You don't believe me?" I ask.

"No, because I've noticed that you can never look me in the eye when you lie to me." Billie says.

"Okay, fine. I am lying but only because it's embarrassing." I say.

"What happened?" She asks.

"I missed you so I wanted to make those cookies you made me before. I bumped the knife on the counter and it fell off the counter and it cut me. I didn't have a shirt on, so..." I say.

"Baby, that's not embarrassing, it's cute." She says, smiling.

"Embarrassing for me, I ended up with a cut and burnt cookies." I say.

"It's okay, I'll make you some." She says.

"Thank you." I say.

"You need to be more honest with me." She says.

"I know, you're right." I say.

She kisses my shoulder and I smile.

"Get some rest." She says.

I nod and she walks out of the room.

Time Skip; Billie's View

"This is nice." Y/n says.

"What is?" I ask.

"Just being able to sit and have dinner. I get dinner with the team but it doesn't feel like this." Y/n says.

I smile and nod.

"You remember when Sabrina stopped by earlier with a package for me?" Y/n asks.

"Yes." Y/n says.

"It's actually a gift for you. I asked her to pick it up for me." Y/n says.

"What?" I ask.

Y/n puts her hand in her pocket and pulls a small jewelry box out.

"You didn't have to do." I say.

"I wanted to." Y/n says.

I smile and kiss her cheek. I carefully open the jewelry box and see a necklace.

"This is for me?" I ask taking the necklace out.

"Yeah. That's why there's a B, B for Billie." Y/n says pointing.

"Baby, you should take this back. This had to be very expensive." I say.

"What? No. You deserve it." She says.

"How much was this? Are you still gonna be able to pay your bills?" I ask.

"Is that poking fun at the fact that the league is broke?" She asks.

"...kinda." I say as she laughs.

"I make 200k a year. Shit, I was making another 2 million a year in endorsements before my surgery." She says.

"Aw, that's cute." I say, pinching her cheek.

Her jaw drops and I laugh.

"It doesn't matter because I want you to have it." She says.

"Okay, thank you." I say.

She smiles and I kiss her.

"I love you." I say.

"I love you more." She says.

"Impossible." I say.

"Well, I don't think I could ever love someone else again after loving you." She says.

I smile and she kisses me.
