Ali's pov
"So when does she leave?" Alyssa asks. "Sometime before 12," I say. "Do you need someone to pick you guys up?" "Yea." "Ok, I'll be here at 8," Alyssa says. "Thanks," I say giving her a hug and I start to cry. My baby is still in a lot of pain! "Hey come talk to me outside the room," Alyssa says grabbing my shoulder. She wipes my tear away with her knuckles. "She'll be ok Ali. It'll be rough the first couple of weeks, but it'll get better. I promise. If you need help or anything or just someone to talk to call me. I'll come and help," Alyssa says. "Thanks, it's just..... I hate seeing her in pain. And I can't do anything to make her pain go away. It hurts me to see her hurt." "Yup, I understand Als. Alright it's getting late. I'm gonna go back to the hotel. Call if you need anything ok?" Alyssa say. "Ok. I appreciate it Alys," I say and hug her. Alyssa walks out and Ash wakes up. "Ali, I'm exhausted and you cuddle so we can sleep till morning?" "Yea baby, I'll cuddle with you," I say. And with that I crawl into the bed with Ash. Ash falls asleep and the doctor walks in. "Hello Ali. So I think now is a good time to talk about Ashlyn. Her concussion is very very bad. Her back will get better. She might be able to go back to training in about 5 months. She will need time," the doctor says. "ok thank you. Do you have any concerns about her concussion? How long will the symptoms last?" I ask. "I do not have any concerns as of now and her symptoms will last for around 1-3 weeks," he says and then walks out of the room. I then fall asleep on what seems like instantly.

Ash's pov
I wake up to Ali's alarm. "Hey Als. What's with the alarm?" I ask nudging Ali awake. "Huh?" She says. "Why'd u set an alarm baby?" I ask. "Oh, because Alyssa is coming at 8 and I want you to eat something before," Ali says rubbing my back. "But I'm not hungry," I say. "Oh well. You gotta eat something." Ali says. Then Ali reaches in with her lips and kisses me. Then Alyssa walks in and looks disgusted. "You're here early Lys," I say. "Yea, I didn't want to get stuck in traffic. I saw a doctor on the way in and they said you can leave now," Alyssa says. "Ok great!" I say. "Ali, can you pwetty pwease help me get dressed?" Ashlyn asks me. I grab her good arm and help her get up. I can tell she's dizzy. "Are you ok Ash? Alyssa can you grab her other arm?" I ask. "Yea ill help!" Alyssa says. "Ali, can you carry me? I'm super dizzy." Ash says. "Ok, just tell me if I'm hurting you." I say. I pick her up and bring her to the bathroom. I grab her Uswnt training shirt and help put it over her head. I can tell her back is starting to hurt. "Does your back hurt Ash?" I ask. "Yeah,"she says and starts to cry. I quickly put her shorts on and then pull her into a hug. I basically take all her weight and hold her up. I grab the door and whip it open and yell "Alyssa! Help me bring her to the bed." "I'm coming!" Alyssa yells back. We get Ash back on the bed and I can she the pain in her eyes.

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated. Also I'm trying to go more into detail about what's happening in the story.
