Walkoff [Joc]

(your pov)
It's your best friend's birthday, but it is also game day for your boyfriend. Your friend decided to go to a buffet for lunch with a bunch of your other good friends. While you're getting ready for the luncheon, Joc comes out of the bathroom, "Hey babe, I'm going to go now. I'll see you tonight, have a fun time with your girls." he says kissing you on your temple. 

You stop him, "Good luck with your game today." and you kiss him on the lips. 

He then leaves the apartment that you guys live in together. You finish getting ready and realize you haven't bought your friend a gift yet, so you go to this little boutique you guys always go to. You buy her some of her favorite things from there and make your way to the buffet. 

"Hey Julia happy birthday!" you say as you give her the gift. 

"Aww, thank you for coming (y/n)." she says giving you a hug. 

Once the rest of your friends arrive at the buffet, it's already the bottom of the fourth. The score is tied at 0-0. There's TV's around the buffet and the game is on, you get excited about seeing them around the buffet. You and your friends get food and scatter through the buffet. 

You guys begin to catch up on your lives and all that and then someone asks, "So who's in a relationship?" You laugh at how elementary that comment is but you still speak up, "I do." and all the questions come up like "Whats his name?" "How did you guys meet?" "Can we see a picture?" and you're just like, "Actually he's on tv right now." you point at the screen. 

It's the bottom of the ninth now, two people on and Joc is up to bat. 

"The one that's batting?" your friend asks. "Yup."

 The first pitch is delivered and it almost hit him. 

"If I were there right now I'd beat that guy up for almost hitting my boyfriend." you yell at the tv causing stares from those around you, "Sorry." you say and hide away shyly. 

The next pitch is delivered and it flies right of off Joc's bat into center field. 

"OMG! JOC JUST HIT A 3-RUN WALKOFF! OMG THATS MY BOYFRIEND!!" you start cheering and yelling out "JOC JUST HIT HIS FIRST WALKOFF OMG!!!" you realize you're the only one yelling but you don't care because you're proud of your boyfriend.

Your friends are just laughing at your reaction. 

(Joc's POV) 
As I got out of the shower room, I make my way to my locker and immediately get crowded with reporters asking about your walk-off. 

"It's just a great feeling and I think we need to keep it going." you say and the reporters dash off. 

"Joc! The man of the hour, or should I say, restaurant." Andre says as he goes up to you, "What is this?" he asks him as he hands you his phone. 

You hit play and see that it's a video of (y/n) at her friend's birthday luncheon cheering you on as you hit the walk off, "OMG THATS MY BOYFRIEND!!" you hear Dre imitating her. 

"Very funny Dre, where'd you find this?" you ask. 

"My favorite app called Twitter." he says as he takes his phone back. 

"Hey man can you send me the link?" you say. 

"Already did." he says and grabs his things.

As you walk out of the clubhouse you hear the rest of the guys yelling "OMG THATS MY BOYFRIEND!!" teasing you, but you just laugh it off and tell them, "At least my girlfriend is proud of what I do, whether she is with me or without me." You check the video one last time and see that it was another person at the buffet who posted it and not her or her friends.

(Your POV)
As you sit in your living room waiting for Joc, you contemplate whether you want to attack him and tell congrats or act like nothing happened. Given your reaction at the restaurant, you want to keep it casual and get excited for him to see it in person. 

The door knob shakes and he walks in, "Hey baby, how was your game?" you ask him. 

"It was good, we won." he replies, "How was the luncheon?" 

"It was good, great time catching up with old friends." you reply. 

"Well I heard that there was some kind of raucous at the place you guys went to." he says. 

"What kind of raucous?" you ask. 

"I don't know something like, 'JOC JUST HIT A 3-RUN WALKOFF! OMG THATS MY BOYFRIEND!!'" he says mocking you. 

Your cheeks start to burn up as you feel embarrassed about how he just imitated you. "Aww babe, don't worry. I'm glad to know my girl will root for me, crazily anywhere." he says as he goes up to hug you.
