I watch in awe as my girlfriend shoots the ball with her left and curves it into the goal. I cannot help but smile so big all my teeth are showing. My mom walks in the room and smiles at me smiling.

"Let me guess, Chris scored." She said and I nodded like a puppy in love. My mom handed me more medicine and tissues. "Get rid of the pneumonia, and you'll be back out there with her."

I smile at the thought of seeing Christen. I was really a puppy in love. A sick, loving puppy needing all of Christen Press's attention. My mom left the room and I coughed loudly. I started hacking and couldn't breathe. My mom rushed in nervous. I looked at my sleeve and saw blood.

I looked up nervously. My mom picked my frail body up and grabbed Christen's sweatshirt. Mom ran outside and placed me in the car. I kept coughing but turned on the radio.

"Christen Press does it again!" I hear the announcer say and I stop coughing and smile.

"That's my baby." I rasp out as my Mom pulls up quickly to the hospital. She helps me out of the car and picks me up once again.

She runs over to the receptionist and gets me into the ER.

Once I'm all situated in my bed with an IV and the proper dose of medicine, I can finally take a deep breath.

"Mommy turn on the game please?" I ask and she nods smiling. She takes the remote and turns it on. The game is almost over and its 6-0 USA. I smile seeing my Chrissy pass the ball. I grab her sweatshirt and cuddle into it.

I start dozing off but sit up quickly.

"I will call Christen for you love. Get some rest. I love you." My mom says and walks over leaving kisses on my forehead.

Christen POV

My phone rings as I dry my hair. I smile seeing its Y/N's mom giving me an update on my sick babygirl.

"Hey Christen! Great win!" Y/N's mom says

"Thanks Mrs. Y/L/N! How's Y/N?" I say brushing out my hair.

"Y/N was admitted to the hosptial.."

"What!" I yell out in a frantic as the girls all look at me concerned.

"Chris, she's okay. She had a coughing fit that had blood involved so I took her to the ER. She is fine and asleep right next to me. She's wearing that smile you fell in love with and cuddling your sweatshirt. I don't know if you want to take your off days or fly up here until Friday." Mrs. Y/L/N explains and I smile at the details.

"I'll fly up there tomorrow morning. Tell her I love her and no matter how sick she may look right now, she's always gorgeous in my eyes." I say to Mrs. Y/L/N.

"Of course Christen. I will see you tomorrow then. Congrats again on the win and have a good night Chris." She says and I say goodnight as well before hanging up.

"Is everything alright Pressy?" Sam says coming up to me

"Y/N was admitted to the hospital during our game. And before you freak out, she's doing just fine. She watched our game then fell asleep. A few of you may visit her, but must be back by Wednesday." Vlatko says taking the words out of my mouth

"Aw poor baby Y/N." Kelley says

Y/N POV

I wake up and immediately smell my girlfriends perfume. I open my eyes and see Christen standing there, smiling holding my hand.

"Chrissy.." I groan out and pull her down for a hug. She lays on the bed next to me and cuddles in, kissing my forehead.

"I had to come." Is all she says before kissing my forehead again.

"Hey Y/N!" Mal says from behind Christen. I smile and see Tobin, Sam, Rose, and Becky. I wave and they wave back.

"Hey, look at me." Christen says scrunching my cheeks together and pulling my face to face her. She smiles, "Your so cute. But, I love you. That's what I waned to say."

I leaned in and kissed her nose, "And I love you."
