The roar of the crowd still echoes in his ears as Joe Burrow steps off the field, his heart racing with the high of victory. The game is over, and the Bengals have come out on top. The win wasn’t easy, but Joe made it look effortless, as he always does—calm under pressure, confident in his every move. As he walks toward the locker room, the weight of the victory settles in, and he can’t help but smile, knowing all the hard work has paid off.

His teammates surround him, clapping him on the back, shouting their congratulations, and sharing in the glory of the win. Joe’s laughter joins in with theirs, but amidst the excitement, his mind keeps drifting back to you. He knows you're somewhere in the stands, cheering him on, your energy matching his own. The victory feels even sweeter knowing you're there, sharing in the moment.

Back in the locker room, Joe’s smile widens as the team celebrates, but he can’t quite shake the thought of you. He knows the loud cheers and the excitement are a part of the night, but it’s the quiet moments that mean the most. He pulls his phone from his bag, typing quickly, “We did it! Can’t wait to see you.” He hits send, his heart light, knowing you’ll be there to share in the joy of the win.

As the team begins to wind down, Joe leans back, taking a moment to breathe and let the victory sink in. It’s been a hard-fought game, but it’s worth it. He’s not thinking about the media or the praise that’s coming his way—he’s thinking about the people who’ve always been there for him. And you’re at the top of that list.
