Marina's POV*

It's been a week since Ryker's "incident". I've never seen Shane more caring and open. He's been taking care of his brother day in and day out, so we haven't had a whole lot of time to hang out. Today I was so happy when I got a call from him.
(The call)
Shane: hey Baby girl, I'm sorry I've been a bit distant lately, but I want to make it up to you completely. There's a Soccer game downtown and I got 2 tickets. So, can u come babe?

Marina: yes of coarse baby, what time does it start?

Shane: the game starts at 8 but I want to eat dinner and stuff first, so be ready for 6?

Marina: yeah of coarse babes, I'll see u then.

Shane: okay see ya later princess, I love you.

Marina: I love you too.

(End of call)

It was 5:00 and I just finished taking a shower. It was supposed to be somewhat chilly so I put on my Black Adidas pants and the teams Jersey. The teams that were playing was the Vancouver Velvets and the Toronto Tigers. I threw on my grey Tigers jersey and a red sweater. By the time I did my makeup and straightened my hair it was 6 o'clock. I heard Shane's car pull in the driveway. I grabbed my phone and purse and ran down the stairs. "Bye Mom! Bye Artie! I'll be back later!" I yelled from the door. I ran outside and hopped in the car. "Hey gorgeous." Shane said. He leaned over and kissed me. We started driving to the game. The whole half hour there we were talking about Guitars and Soccer. I'm trying to get Shane to take up the guitar again because he was an amazing player, but he stopped as soon as grade 10 started. He used to play all the time at school in the music room during lunches, I remember walking by every now and then and hearing him play "Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin." The drive to the arena took an hour and a half. We got there and went to Pizza Pizza. We ordered a whole pepperoni pizza because Shane was really hungry and I usually only eat 3 slices so he was going to eat the rest. It was 7:30 by the time we finished eating. We got into the arena and sat 5 rows from the front. "Who do you think is gonna win babe?" He asked me. "Well I'm hoping that the tigers win, but in reality I think the Velvets are gonna win." I said. He looked at me and laughed. "Okay whatever you say baby." He said. We sat there and waited for the game to start. The temperature was dropping so fast that by the time the game started I was literally shivering. "Here babes." Shane said. He took off his huge bulky sweater and put it on me. He was now wearing only a long sleeve shirt and a light jacket. "No babe, your gonna freeze." I said to him. He smiled at me. "Don't worry I'll survive, I'm a big boy." We both started laughing. The game started and it was kind of boring. By the time half time came around we had finished a box of popcorn, 2 large drinks, and 3 bags of candy. The score at half time was 2-1 for the Velvets. "Hey, can we go to the washroom?" I asked him. "Sure princess, lets go." We walked through and found the girls bathroom. "I'll wait out here babes." He said. I walked in to the bathroom and I almost fell over. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. In the middle of the bathroom on the floor was Adamo Richi, the star player of the Toronto Tigers bleeding out on the floor. I screamed. I heard Shane run in and before I knew it I had fallen unconscious onto the floor, the only thing that saved me from a concussion was Shane's arms that caught me.
