Em wakes up to the sound of Pasta's alarm going off and the feeling of blood trickling down her nose. She sits up immediately.

"Babe, what's wrong?" he asks in concern.

"I have a nose bleed," she replies, getting up.

He gets up after her and they go to the bathroom. He takes toilet paper and holds it up to her nose while sending a text to the team group chat.

She'll be fine! The same thing happened to Mel when she was at 15 weeks. Just keep pressure on it and it'll go away in a couple of minutes

Thanks bro!

After a couple minutes, her bleeding subsides and he helps clean up the bathroom.

"The cleaning staff is gonna think we murdered someone in this bathroom," he jokes, as he tries to wipe off the blood stains from the sink and walls.

"You're not funny, David," she groans.

"I'm sorry," he replies, seriously.

The last thing he wants is to piss her off on game day.

"What time do you have skate?" she asks him.

"11:30 am, right after team breakfast," he informs her.

"Okay," she replies, as he changes into comfortable clothes for breakfast and skate.

"I'll see you after skate, baby," he replies, grabbing his phone.

He leaves the hotel room and heads down to breakfast. She orders her own breakfast and talks to her sister Anny. Her food eventually arrives ad she eats it while watching SportsCenter. She sees that the Mets lost the night before to the Reds 5-4 in Queens. She also sees that the Blues beat the Stars 4-3 in Dallas. She also sees that the Sixers beat the Raptors 94-89 and the Nuggets beat the Trail Blazers 121-113. After eating, she places the cart outside of the room and takes some Tums for her tummy troubles, which are symptoms of 15 weeks. She goes to the bathroom and showers. She dries her hair with the blowdryer and ties it up while changing into comfy clothes. Pasta comes back to the room and makes his way to the bed.

"Hi baby, how was skate?" she asks him.

"It was good. I hope we can pull off a win tonight," he replies, kissing her.

"Alright, I'll let you nap while I watch some Netflix," she informs him, fishing out her AirPods and her Macbook.

He lays down and takes his nap while she watches a documentary. He wakes up to his alarm and goes to the bathroom to shower. She goes in there to do her hair. She then does her makeup before changing into a white blouse, her green playoff jacket, jeans, and boots. She helps him put on his suit. They grab their things and head off to team dinner. They make their way down and sit at a table with McAvoy and Kiley.

They order their drinks before chatting about the game tonight and how they expect to play tonight, as well how they expect Columbus to play tonight. After receiving their drinks, they place their orders for their entrees.

"Are you ready for finals?" Em asks Kiley, since Kiley will be taking her finals the following week.

"Yes. My classes this semester were really good and I have confidence I will pass my Nursing exam," she replies.
