As I sat on my bed writing an essay I heard a knock at my door.  I sighed and went to the door and peeped through the peephole.  I smiled as I saw Ryan standing there. 


"I thought you had practice today?" I asked opening the door. 

"I did." He said showing me a wrist brace. 

"Oh my god what happened?" I asked concerned letting him in. 

"Hit went the wrong way, wasn't Prustys fault.  I broke a bone so I'm out for four weeks, I'm thinking about going home to Minnesota for those four weeks.  And if I do I need to load up on sexy girlfriend time." He said kissing my cheek.

"You should go home.  Rest up for playoffs and have your mom take care of you." I said sitting down. 

"I want to, but I also don't.  I want to be here for press stuff and everything, and I want to be with you.  But I don't want to be in New York while I'm injured.  I want to be at home where I know everything and everyone, where I can just chill with my family at home being pampered by my mom. But I also don't want to be away from you for an entire month, I'd go insane." He explained laying on my lap.  "Also, I ordered pizza."

"Thanks Ry." I said with a laugh.  "I mean I get where you're coming from.  And I'd go insane not seeing you for a month, but it's March.  I have spring break in like two weeks so I might be able to just come see you then and you'd be able to show me around Minnesota.  And I want to go to The Mall of America.  I wanna see where you grew up and everything like that, but if it's not possible I know that it won't be horrible for me to wait a while.  I don't think we're going to end things anytime soon."

"Well I intended on forever.  I still live with my parents in Minnesota but I need to house hunt down there.  My parents love you so I don't see a problem with you coming to visit, I think they'd just be happy to get to spend time with you.  They're huge Freya fans." Ryan said kissing my cheek. 

"I'm a huge Ryan fan." I responded leaning down to kiss him.  "Speaking of fans you haven't gotten me one of your jerseys yet."

"I know, I've got to though.  Can't have my girl going without my jersey." He said laughing.  We heard the knock at the door signaling that the pizza was here.  Ryan got up and payed the delivery man and came back with the pizza. 

"Do you want to just eat and nap?  I have a test this Friday and I don't want to fail so can I go back to studying?" I asked as he opened the box.

"Frankly I intended to eat and nap." He said grabbing his first slice.

"Okay." I said grabbing a piece. 

"What subject is your test in?" He asked between bites.

"Biology." I said getting up to grab us some soda from the fridge. 

"Oh boy." He said knowing that I wasn't a huge fan of bio.

"Yeah.  That's why I've been studying extra in Bio so I don't fail, it's apparently like fifteen percent of my final grade." I said sitting down with our sodas. 

"Oh I remember how much college sucked, I wasn't as good a student as you are either.  I kinda just treaded water to keep my schoolership." He said sipping his soda.

"I really want to get a good job here so I can get a bigger apartment and stuff.  And I want to have a good job in general." I responded taking another slice.  I was on my second he was on his fifth.

"I mean everyone wants to get a good job you're just motivated to actually succeed in doing so." He said to me making me blush.

"Thanks babe." I said giggling.
