The US Soccer youtube channel is filming Lindsey and I playing some married couple question game. Basically they just ask us questions about one of us and the other person has to answer. The team is behind the camera which makes the game a lot more funny because of their reactions to our answers. After the youtube channel had asked all their questions I notice that Kling has an evil smile on her face.
Well this should be good.
"Can we ask you two some questions?" Kling asks.
I look at Lindsey who shrugs.
"Sure." I say and Lindsey nods.
"What Disney Princess is your other half most like?" Rose asks.
"Ariel." Lindsey says.
"Belle." I say
"Well we know why Cairo is like Ariel, but why is Lindsey like Belle?"
"Belle wanted to experience life despite what everyone else was saying she should do and Lindsey went to PSG even though many people were telling her to go to college." I say.
"Who's the better kisser?" Sam asks and Lindsey and I point to each other causing the team to aww.
"Lindsey what is your favorite tattoo of Cairo's excluding the ring finger tattoo?" Ash says.
"Either the wolf on her right hip or the French saying under her right boob."
"Cairo what's the weirdest place you two have had sex?" Pinoe asks.
"No comment."
Really Pinoe?
"Lindsey what's the hottest thing you've seen Cairo do?" Ali asks.
"We were grocery shopping and a women said some homophobic stuff and Cairo shut her down. Like she started quoting stuff from the Bible then she started talking about us having kids and my god it was hot as hell."
"Cairo are you religious?" Tobin asks.
"Not really. I went to a religious school up until I left America at fifteen and everyday we had a class called bible class where all we did was read the Bible so after reading the Bible everyday for about 10 years I pretty much memorized it." I say
"Who said I love you first?" Christen asks.
"Cairo did." Lindsey says.
"When did she say it?"
"It was during that movie night we had after her records got released."
"That turned out to be a really good night." I say.

"Why?" Becky asks.
"It was the night we first said I love you and it was the night I knew I wanted to marry Lindsey." Some of the girls aww and Lindsey blushes.
"Cairo what are your pet names for Lindsey?" Julie asks.
"Babe, Baby, Babygirl, Princess, or Love."
"Lindsey where is Cairo the most happy?" Alex asks.
"When she is diving." Lindsey says and I shake my head.
"Is that not right Cairo?" Alex asks.
"Not anymore it isn't. I'm the most happy when I'm with Lindsey." I say causing Lindsey to blush and the team to aww.
"Well someones getting laid tonight." Kelley says and Lindsey nods.
FUCK YES
"Who wears the pants in the relationship?" Abby asks.
"That depends." Lindsey says
"On?"
"Inside or outside the bedroom."
"Okay outside the bedroom."
"I think we are pretty even. We both know when to be serious and when to have fun." I say and Lindsey nods.
"And inside the bedroom?"
"Cairo can be more aggressive when she wants to." Lindsey says and I blush causing the team to laugh.
"Who takes the longest to get ready?" Crystal asks.
"Lindsey." I say.
"Just because you don't wear make up." My wife says.
"Who gets horny the most?" Emily asks.
"Cairo" Lindsey says and the team look at me.
"Have you seen how beautiful my wife is?" I say.
"Let's get off that subject." Carli says thankfully. "Who is the better cook?"
"Cairo." My bride says.
"What's your favorite physical thing about each other?" Kelley asks.
"Her eyes." Lindsey and I say in unison then look at each other and laugh.
"Cairo if Lindsey had one thing she thinks you should work on what would it be?" Tobin asks.
"I need to get better at showing my emotions and letting other people help whenever I need it."
"Is that true Lindsey?" Christen asks.
"Cairo's gotten a lot better at it and there are only a few times where she has bottled up stuff." Lindsey says.
That was the last question since the camera needed new batteries so we stopped.
"Don't worry we will only include the PG questions." One of the people from the youtube channel says as they're packing up.

"Thank you." Lindsey says.

The team and I just arrived at the stadium for our game against the Dutch today.
When we get into the locker room I head over to my locker and see my jersey hanging up. It no longer has Cairo on the back. It now has Horan on it. When I reach my jersey I run my fingers over the last name.
"You okay?" Lindsey asks and wraps an arm around my waist.
"Yeah. It's just...yeah." I say and smile at Lindsey.
Lindsey nods understanding what I mean then I kiss her and we do all of our pregame stuff then the pregame speeches happen so we head to the tunnel. Once in the tunnel Lindsey and I do our pre walkout routine then get in line a couple seconds before we walk out onto the pitch.
The first 20 minutes of the game are uneventful until we get a corner. Tobin swings the ball in and it goes over my head and when I turn around I see Lindsey on the ground not moving.
"Baby...Lindsey wake up." I say after sprinting over to her.
I'm then pulled into a hug by someone, but I easily shake whoever it is away and turn to the medical team.
"HURRY UP" I yell.
The medical team kick it into another gear and finally reach Lindsey. They check my wife over as I kneel next to her and hold her hand. My worst fear is realized when Dawn signals for a stretcher.
"Ma'am we need you to-" One of the stadium staff goes to say.
"Finish that sentence and you'll be the one needing the fucking stretcher." I seethe making the man gulp.
Once the stretcher gets here Lindsey is placed on it and stretchered off and while I'm walking next to the stretcher I signal for a sub and Jill nods and replaces both me and Lindsey with Moe and Rose.
"Everything alright?" Jill asks as I sit down.
"I don't know how you expect me to play when my wife was just stretchered of the field." I say and Jill nods in an understanding manner.
I then grab a towel and put it over my face to hide my face from the cameras so they don't see me crying. I'm then pulled into someone's body from beside me.
"Hey. She'll be okay." Christen says. "She's a tough woman."
I then feel hands on my knees so I move the towel to where my face is still hidden, but I can see and I see Ash in front of me.
"She's still here." Ash says.
"Where?" I ask and she points to the tunnel.
I bolt out of my seat and sprint into the tunnel. Once in the tunnel I see Lindsey in the ambulance so I sprint to it and knock on the closed door .
"Family only." An EMT says.
"That's my wife." I say and he nods and lets me into the ambulance.
The EMT continues what he was doing and I sit down and look over my wife. Finally a couple minutes later he's done and leaves so I lean over Lindsey and kiss her.
"I love you...I love you...I love you." I say in-between kissing Lindsey.
"I love you Cairo, but why aren't you playing?" Lindsey says.
"I couldn't keep playing...I've never seen you hurt before."
"I guess you know how I felt when you had your diving accident." Lindsey says and I think she's trying to break the tension, but I'm too worried.
Lindsey notices this so she takes her non IV hand and brings it to my face making me put my hand over hers and melt into her touch.
"Baby I'm going to be okay."
"Cairo." I hear Ash say behind me.
I turn around and see Ash has both Lindsey and I's stuff so I take them from her and half heartedly smile at her. I then see the whole team behind her looking into the ambulance. The EMT then shuts the door and we head to the hospital.
The next couple hours are a blur and thankfully Dawn met us at the hospital so she could be cognisant of what was happening and I could focus on my wife. Apparently Lindsey is fine and was unconscious due to shock thankfully. Once Lindsey was released we went back to the hotel. After we got to our room I helped Lindsey get comfortable then she feel asleep. A few seconds after she fell asleep I cried a little, tightened my grip on my wife, then followed her into dream land.
