want me (joe burrow)

seventeen

reagan's pov

i woke up the next morning with one of the worst headaches ever. i was cuddling with joe too. fuck. i'm so stupid when i'm drunk. i don't even remember everything, but i'm sure i came on to him.

it was hard not to. like really hard he's just so cute and such a good person i don't know. he's helped me get through the past few weeks and he just made me feel more stable.

he woke up at the same time as me which was very awkward then he got me medicine for my headache. after he had football so i decided to go back home. he dropped me off and what did i do? sleep all day.

—————-

it had been a few weeks now and i was very busy. i had to balance between volleyball, school, and friends. i would go to practice then class then practice then class lastly hanging out with friends.

if been doing this everyday for the past month and the olympic coach was amazing. of course she was strict, but i knew she believed in me. joe and kelsey were very helpful and got me through everything.

football had 1 more game today the championship. we had finished our actual volleyball season a week ago losing to mississippi state sadly. it helped me become more focused on the olympic qualifier and my friends.

i got ready and went to meet up with joe before his game. i was nervous for him, but didn't want to show it so i went up and hugged him. he hugged me back and i heard people snapping pictures.

"good luck today go get em tiger." i laughed shaking his hand before he hugged me again and walked to the field point over to me.

we both laughed then he went to his coach. everyone cheered for him. they had been undefeated so far and joe had been in the talks for the heisman trophy. they started off strong,

but they finished even stronger!!! lsu went undefeated and just won the championship. this is the best team they have ever had. joe ran up and hugged me picking me up and i screamed in joy for him.

"joe you did it y'all won!!!" i yelled and he smiled looking at me. i leaned in and kissed his cheek.

"go celebrate with your team. i'll see you later okay congratulations you did so good." i said.

"thank you so much reagan. i'll talk to you as soon as i can i promise."

"okay have fun you deserve it really." i said hugging him again and leaving.

i saw all the videos of him smoking a cigar on instagram and i still just couldn't believe they were national champions. he called me and talked to me for a bit saying he was going to eat with his parents and he wanted me to go.

i met them a few times and they were so amazing. i got dressed in black ripped jeans, a white t shirt, and a leopard print jean jacket. joe picked me up and we drove to this really fancy restaurant.

we got in and met with his parents. his mom hugged me and it felt nice having a hug from a mom even if it wasn't your own. i hadn't hugged my mom in like 8 years.

she called me occasionally to tell me how i ruined my life by quitting cheer and i could have gotten recognition because the football team is popular right now. i learned to just not listen and sometimes it was hard to.

"hey it's really good to see y'all again." i said to his parents sitting by joe.

"oh it's good seeing you again too you look so pretty joe she's a keeper." his mom said to me.

"are you kidding this mans a first round draft pick hits the opposite." i said laughing and they all joined in.

"well she's a future olympian so i don't know." joe said.

"wait really?" his dad questioned.

"well not officially, but i'm hoping so." i said.

"aww that's great y'all are so cute together."

"we aren't together." we said at the same time looking at each other for a little to long.

"oh sure you aren't."

"mom."

"oh we are or aren't that's so unimportant right now because we are sitting next to the winner of the national championship right now." i said hitting joes arm playfully and hugging him.

"we sure are i'm proud of you son." his dad said.

"good job sweetie. oh i love you so much joe we would be so proud regardless." his mom said and while i was ecstatic for him, it was hard watching his mom say she was proud no matter what.

"excuse me for a moment i'm going to run to the restroom real quick i just want a water if the waiter comes by." i said and joe squeezed my hand. i looked at him reassuringly before walking towards the bathrooms.
