"AWOOOO." Cinnamon and Biscuit say.

"Oh you know I love you two." I say making my doggies smile then the doorbell rings causing Cinnamon and Biscuit to run towards the door.

"You two better not be scratching at that door." Katie says as she follows my doggies. "Or so help me puppy dogs I will not give you two any treats."

"She is such a poohead." Saoirse says. "But I love her so it's okay."

I chuckle then I talk to my friends as everyone else arrives.

Once everyone does arrive, Katie and her girlfriend stand in front of everyone.

"So before we talk about anything that's not football." Katie says. "I just wanted everyone to be aware of the Champions League Draw that just happened."

"I forgot that was today." Alessia says as Katie puts the UWCL Group Results onto my tv.

"How the hell'd you do that?" I mumble as I look at the group results.

After the group results are shown, the Round of 16 Matchups are shown

"Yay." Emily sarcastically says. "Back to Madrid."

"Now that that's over." Katie says as she turns off the tv. "Let's eat."

"WHEW." Hazel and Kingsley shout making everyone laugh then we head to the kitchen and get our food.

Once we have our food all of us head to the dining room where the big long table is set up then we sit down, eat our food, and talk about random shit.

"So Scarlett what would you do if you weren't playing football?" Kyra asks.

"I'd probably be travelling the world rock climbing and filming my experiences." I say.

"How long's it been since you rock climbed?" Lena asks.

"Since before the season started." I say. "Which sucks."

"Maybe you can get some climbing in during the Christmas break." Sophia says.

"Maybe." I say. "Oh I'd also like to do some acting on the West End."

"Did you do theater as a kid?" Kamilya asks.

"Yeah." I say. "That's where I met your sister."

"Oh." Kamilya says then Jasmine quickly moves the conversation along.

A little while later everyone finishes eating so we take our plates back to the kitchen, wash them off, and put them in the dishwasher.

"Miss Scarlett?" Kingsley Harris questions as I feel a little hand grab mine.

"Yes Bubba?" I question as I turn around and look at Kingsley.

"You play piano?" Kingsley asks as he points to the piano in my living room.

"I do."

"Can you play Christmas song?" Hazel Harris asks as she grabs my other hand.

"Come on Munchkin's." I say then I lead the Harris twins, and everyone else, to the piano in my living room.

Once at the piano I sit down then I pick up and set the Harris twins on my lap.

"Has your Mama ever told you about Donny Hathaway?" I question as I wrap my arms around the twins so that they're safe.

"Nope." Hazel says.

"Well your Mama and I are gonna have to have a talk later." I say as I look at Emma.

"Hey we just got to Beyoncé." Emma says. "We have a long way to go before Donny Hathaway."

"Yoncé." Hazel cheers making me smile then I start playing the piano.

A couple seconds later I start singing.

"Again." The Harris twins cheer.

"Why don't we go play some games." Emma says.

"Games?" The Harris twins asks.

"Games kiddos." Jessie says then the twins look at me.

"Come on twins." I say. "Let's go play some games."
