Rick felt someone holding his hand. He slowly peeked his eyes open and coughed.


 Kate gasped and quickly wiped her eyes. 


"Rick." She said. "K..Kate?" He stumbled. 


"Hey handsome." She said. Did she just call me handsome? He thought. 


"Where am I?" He asked. "In the hospital." She said. 


His eyes widened and he tried to sit up. "Careful! Your neck is going to be very stiff." She said.


 "Kate I can't move it." He whimpered. "I know, you have meningitis." She said. 


"What!? How." he all but screamed. 


"It's caused from certain air particles of sorts, I think you picked it up with the move from New York to Cali." She said and he gulped.


 "Kate we have a big game coming up I can't be sick." He said. "My dad understands." She said.


 "Kate this isn't high school football! This is go big or go home! If I have any chance of going Professional I need to be at every game!" he said.


 "I know Rick! But if they want you they want a healthy you." She reasoned and he took a deep breath.


 "You're right I'm sorry." He said squeezing her hand.


 Kate gently smiled and brushed her fingers over his hand. "Javi is here." She said and he smiled. 


"Want me to go get him?" She asked and he nodded. "Not that I'm enjoying your company." he clarified and she chuckled.


 "I know." She said and she stood up. "I'll go send him in." She said and he thanked her. 


Kate walked out of the room and smiled when she saw the text he sent.



 'I must be pretty handsome Xoxo' Kate felt herself blush. 


He had heard her call him handsome. "Hey Javi Rick wants to see you." She said and he smiled. 


"Thanks Kate!' He said and she nodded. "Wait you left your pho.." She began but he was already gone.


 Someone's calling him! The person called 4 times in a row it must be important, she thought.


 She took the phone and answered it. "Oh Javier thank goodness you finally answered." A voice said.
