Victoria’s first ever basketball game was about to happen, and hell was she nervous.

She didn’t know a shit about basketball, but she did know something about women, but that definitely didn’t help in this situation.

Regardless abut her nervousness, she was excited, she definitely was excited to see Paige.

The same blonde girl, sky blue eyes and a memorable smile.

She haven’t seen her since the day the instructor gave the first years a tour around the compus, she did hear about her, and damn she was popular. There wasn’t a day that she didn’t hear something about Paige or the women’s basketball team.

She was almost ready, just needed to pack her things in her small bag. She didn’t hace ‘uconn’ clothes to match with her 𝗈𝗎𝗍𝖿𝗂𝗍, so she grabbed clothes with the similar representative colors of the university.

Checking once again her makeup and putting on lip gloss.

“𝖦𝗂𝗋𝗅𝗒! 𝖠𝗋𝖾 𝗒𝗈𝗎 𝗋𝖾𝖺𝖽𝗒?” Adriana entered her dorm room and sat down in her bed.

Victoria was in this situation thanks to Adriana. Her cousin was part of media team of the women’s basketball team since her first year and know being in their second year, being the assistance of the sports psychologist of both basketball teams, thanks Adriana had connections to get easier seats to see any basketball game she wanted. Not like Victoria, Adriana went to every game she wanted when she had the opportunity, she knew a little bit about basketball, enough to know what was happening in the court.

Arriving at the arena, people with the colors of their university that were difficult to difference because of the similar colors but UConn kinda stand out because of the husky.

Victoria and Adriana finally got to their seat, right in front of the center line of the court, having a great vision of the court.

Her vision was glued to the only one, Paige Bueckers, recognizing her because of her elegant hair and of the 5 that laid gracefully on the back of her jersey.

Everything was going great, UConn was winning, a 18 point difference.

Nothing was going wrong, she even got her attention to a new player that wasn’t Paige, Nika Mühl. Until 1:13:17 of the game,

Paige was bouncing the ball with her right hand, walking softly to see her options, she tried to run but her left knee kinda made a weird twist, jerking in front and later slipping up again like nothing making Paige kneel down.

Paige stode up again and run like nothing happened until she started hoping on her right leg and she collapsed in front of the UConn team bench area gripping on her left knee tightly.

Victoria and Adriana got up trying to get a better view of Paige but her teammates made a circle around her, making no room to see while a medic kneel down to examine Paige.

2 teammates helped Paige get into a UConn bench and the game still continued.

The game ended, UConn taking the win, but a what cost? One of their best player’s got injured right before the game ended.

The memory of Paige collapsing in the court kept repeating itself automatically and it just made Victoria’s chest tighten making her preoccupation even bigger.

Was Paige good?

Will she ever play again?

The ride back to the dorms was silent, even Adriana was shocked, she knew Paige since her first day of helping the teams therapist and both of them being first years, they would help each other even do their majors had nothing to do.

She still had a practice to assist tomorrow, so she could check on Paige.

𝖳𝗁𝖾 𝖭𝖾𝗑𝗍 𝖣𝖺𝗒

Adriana came back with some news. Paige had tore her acl and needed surgery.

Victoria didn’t knew anything about medicine but just hearing that she needed surgery, she knew it was bad.

She didn’t expect that her first ever basketball game will end like that, and seeing her favorite player collapse made it even a worst experience.

It was all a matter of time.
