What should've been

Sucker

November 21st

"Everybody come here!" Coach Simmons called out as the team warmed up for a game "I have a little surprise for you"

"What is it?" Melissa asked

"Me!" Lena came into the indoor soccer stadium, with the help of her crutches

"Oh, my god you're back?!" Melissa squealed and the team ran over to hug Lena

"I'm not back" Lena chuckled "I came to cheer you guys on. First game since the finals"

"Why are you dressed for a game though?" Jonathan asked

"Because injured or not she's part of this team" coach Simmons said "that means you're at every practice and every game"

"Apparently wether I'm on the field or the bench I represent the team" Lena said

"Damn straight!" Oliver wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close to kiss her cheek

"Welcome back number 10!" Lexie smiled and ruffled her hair. Everyone cheered

"Hey, can we all sign your cast?" Another team member asked

"Sure" Lena smiled

=================================

"How was your game?" Daniel asked when Lena got home

"We lost" Lena sighed

"Oof, the win streak has ended"

"Yup" Lena exhaled "how was your game?"

"We won"

"Good"

"Guys, go change" Logan said "your grandparents will be here soon"

"Which?" Daniel asked

"Chris and Laura"

A few minutes later Christopher and Laura knocked on the door

"Hey!" Chris smiled

"Hi, come on in" Logan said

"It's so quiet" Laura said

"Kids are all upstairs" Logan said "Rory's not home yet"

"Mini Huntzbergers!" Christopher called out

"Grandpa!" Sophie ran down the stairs to hug Christopher

"Oh, my god, you got taller!" Chris said

"No I didn't" Sophie rolled her eyes

"I think you did"

Sophie just shrugged

"Hi grandma" Daniel said as he ran down the stairs "grandpa"

"Hey" Chris and Laura said at the same time

"Dad, Lena needs help"

"Is she ok?" Logan asked

"How should I know?"

"You know that she needs help, but you don't know why?" Logan raised an eyebrow

"Yeah..."

"I'll be right back" Logan said and went upstairs and knocked on Lena's bedroom door "Lena?"

"Come in"

Logan walked into Lena's room to see Lena sitting on the floor, her crutches on the other side of the room "New rule. I don't care how well you think you can get around with out the crutches, use them"

"Fine" Lena sighed

Logan grabbed the crutches and then helped Lena up. They made their way downstairs and into the living room where everyone was sitting.
