SNAP

Kaori was laying on the floor, face down, holding her leg in pain

She had broke her other fibula, meaning both of her legs had broken bones

Kōusei immediately left his seat and ran to the field, going through security guards in the process

Kaori had to be stretchered off the field, unconscious from the pain suffered from the leg break as well as her other leg being broken as well.

Yoshiyuki and Ryouko Who were watching their kids as well as Elizabeth, Brian and Ruth (as Tsubaki and Dil were at the Miami game) had watched in horror as their daughters leg had been snapped on live television and both of them cried, Tsubaki and Dil just froze up in shock, they saw Kaori crumble off the field in just one play.

Kaori was taken to the hospital where Kōusei wouldn't leave her side, he would hold her hand evreyday and wouldn't let go, it took hospital staff and friends to feed him, whlist in hospital, Tsubaki, Dil, Watari, Sherry, Yoshiyuki, Ryouko, Her Miami teammates (despite having commitments which they cancelled in Kaoris Honour) as well as the children stayed by her.

A week later

Kaori woke up to find many people standing by her bedside, they looked tired, but were glad to see Kaori awake

"Kaori, How are you feeling" said Kōusei

"My legs hurt, part from that, I'm feeling like I have a lot of energy" said Kaori

A doctor walked in

"Kaori you've broken both of your fibula in your legs, I'm afraid you'll gonna be out for maybe the entire season" said the doctor

"Why does this happen so many times, why do I keep getting injured" said Kaori

Everyone looked at each other and suddenly Kaoris backup QB Steve Mertenberger spoke up

"Well judging by your style of play, you play a Unitas/Jim Kelly sort of play which is very good, but very risky at this level and as a result you may end up getting injured, as soon as you get back, maybe try and change your style so you get less injured, like Dan Marino or Boomer Eisasion"

Suddenly everyone nodded in agreement and then Tsubaki spoke up

"Did you know Kōusei was worried about you while your were unconscious, he was so worried that he had barely slept and we had to feed him as he couldn't really help himself"

Kaori looked over and saw Kōusei, his clothes looked worn, his glasses moist due to the tears, he smelt like he hadn't bathed in a week and he was sniffling from his crying and worry other his beloved

"Kōusei, are you okay" said Kaori

Kōusei hugged Kaori and said "I'm okay that your okay"

And then they kissed

Tsubaki And Watari were doing mocking kissing gestures, Ryouko along with Dil and Steve Mertenberger smiled, Brian Opalu along with the other linebackers were singing and dancing

A few weeks later

Kaori was discharged days later, with her returning to physiotherapy twice a week to get the legs healed before the end of the season, Steve Mertenberger was given the task of playing quarterback while Kaori was out injured.

Kaori decided on something, she decided that despite the injury, she wanted to do an another duet with Kōusei

She was looking into events, she knew she couldn't travel far and decided to take part in a music competition, something she hadn't done since she met Kōusei in Japan all those years ago.

"Hey Kōusei, I've got something we can do" said Kaori

"What is it" said Kōusei

"Wanna peform in a music competition" said Kaori
