"Okay Quinn, you can do this. Win one for the team. This is the final mome—"
"Rachel, it's just bowling. It's not a big deal."
"Yes, but this is for the League Championship! So really, it is a big deal."
Quinn brushed the comment off, shrugging Rachel's hands off her shoulders. She got up, smiling cheekily. "Last frame Rachel. I got this, no problem."
Quinn took a deep breath, slowly exhaling as she tried to drown out the excited shouts and cheers around her. One more strike and the title of League Champion would be all hers.
"Come on Quinn! You can do it!"
She shook her head at her girlfriend's enthusiasm, but smiled nonetheless.
Feeling the weight of the ball in her hands, she closed her eyes, took one more deep breath and aimed.
With one fluid motion, the ball released its grip, sailing down the lane.
Her breath caught, eyes wide in astonishment as the ball made contact, causing an explosion of pins. For one brief moment, one pin was left standing, teetering on its edge before falling over with a satisfying bang.
An earsplitting roar erupted from the crowd.
"You did it! You did it!" Rachel bounded over, wrapping her in a hug. "You won the tournament! You're League Champion!"
Quinn merely smiled. "Told you it was no problem." She struggled to free herself. "Uh Babe? Kind of crushing me here."
The brunette released her immediately. "Sorry."
"It's alright. It's—"
"I believe this belongs to you."
She took the offered trophy, beaming at the inscription on the gold plaque.

She felt the weight of Rachel's head on her shoulder. "Was it worth it?"
Her smiled widened as the held up the trophy. "Every. Damn. Second."
