Chapter twenty-three

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Ok then" Katie says to me picking up her duvet and blankets she had brought down ",I'll bring down her blanket incase she gets cold, or starts looking for it"

"Ok" I whisper slightly moving so I'm led slightly facing Rosie, her head now fallen into the crook of my neck

A few minutes after Katie went upstairs, I heard her trying to quietly run back down the stairs, as she came through the door with the most adorable shark blanket ever. Now I understand why all of Rosie's choices were shark films, they must be her favourite animal, I'll remember that.

"Right I'm going to bed now are you sure you'll be ok with her here"

"Yes, I'll be fine you go to bed"

"Ok just message me if you change your mind"

"I will now go get some sleep"

"Ok, ok I will night" She says backing into the hallway quietly closing the door. Soon enough I was fast asleep, my cheek resting on the top of Rosie's head.

Rosie's POV

As I started to wake up I could hear some faint chatter in the background, however it was quiet probably because I was asleep. I felt I was snuggled into someone and I assumed it was Katie so I just nuzzled my head further into her neck.

"Morning sleepyhead, you gonna get up now?" I hear Katie's voice however it isn't coming from the person I was sleeping on, my head shoots up from its place to see Lauryn

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry, you should've woken me up" I said my cheeks going redder as i stumbled over my words

"No, it's ok you looked comfy and I didn't want to move you."

"Oh ok" I say slightly embarrassed, when i looked around the room to my relief all i saw was Katie sat on the other sofa, grinning at our exchange "I'm gonna go and get dressed, and call Viv she said I could call her today"

"Ok, we will see you soon" Katie said, still a cheesy grin on her face.

I quickly got up and ran up the stairs embarrassed for falling asleep on her. When I got into Katie's room I took a deep breath to calm down and then walked over to my suitcase and chose an outfit. I decided on a pair of Beth's shorts that I had stolen and Leah's Arsenal hoodie. Shoving my hair up into a ponytail after brushing it, I didn't bother with makeup as I didnt think we were going anywhere today. It's like she knew, as soon as I sat on the bed my phone rang, it was Viv.

*phone call*

V: Hey, Roro, how's it going

R: Yeah its going good, how's my baby

V: Shes good, we took her to Amanda's house yesterday and her and Bella got on like a house on fire, they just played together all afternoon

R: Awww, that's good, you better send me pictures of her

V: I will, so are you enjoying it so far

R: Yeah, it's been good, I've met the whole McCabe family

V: That's good, you need to come and meet my family soon, they are dying to meet you

R: Yeah we can after the Euro's and Beth can come with us

V: Yeah. Well I shall let you go now, ok Ro

R: Yeah ok, I love you I'll see you soon

V: I love you too

*call ended*

It's now around dinner time, me, Katie, Lauryn and their mum and dad were sitting around the table eating our dinner, when my phone starts to ring. At first I ignored it as it's probably just a spam call. However when it rings for a second time I look at it.

My phone shows the caller ID as 'Big boss Sarina', my eyes go wide. Why is she calling me?

"Er- I-I've got to go and answer this" I say standing up and walking out of the room before anyone could say anything.

*phone call*

S: Hello, Rosie

R: Hi, Sarina

S: I was just calling to see if you wanted to come to the pre-euros camp with the girls

R: Oh my god, really

S: Yes really

R: Ok then, I'll be there

S: Great your training kit and everything will be at the house in a few days

R: Thank you, so much

S: Your very welcome Rosie, I'll see you soon bye

*call ends*

Oh. My. God. I've just been asked to go to the England pre-euros camp. My face breaks out into a massive smile, grinning ear to ear as I walk back into the kitchen. As I walk through the door, all of them turn to look at me.

"You alright Ro, what was that about?"

"It was Sarina, she wants me to go to the pre-euros camp"

"Oh, Ro," Katie says, standing up and hugging me. After Katie had finished with her hug I got a hug from the rest of the family, well the ones that were in the living room anyway. We decided that the five of us would go out tonight for food and a few drinks.

I decided to message the Arsenal group chat we have. Almost immediately I had messages from everyone telling me how proud they are of me, and then Beth telling me that she's going to beat me at table tennis.
