Jordyn's POV

"Alright ladies we are going to work on penalties so pick teams." Toby's coach says.

I think her name's Jill.

Toby is lucky enough to be on her girlfriend's team so thats good for her.

I like Christen. She's very nice and very pretty...and she have very pretty eyes.

After everyone is picked the two teams start their penalty practice.

Wait.

What the fuck?

"That's odd." I mumble to myself.

I get out my note pad and write a note that says 'are the goalies supposed to give away which way they are going?' then walk over to Toby's coach and show her the message.

"What do you mean?" The coach asks.

"Their feet are giving it away." I write.

"Okay? Which way is she going for this one?"I look at the keeper in goal and her feet are giving away she is going right.

"Right." I write and sure enough the goal keeper dives that way.

"Tobin." The coach says and Toby runs over.

"What's up?"

"Uh your cousin know's which way the keepers are going each time." Jill says and I look at the keeper, write down left, then show it to them. They watch the penalty being taken and sure enough the keeper goes left.

"Jordyn come with me." Toby says and I follow her over to the team who are standing around watching the penalties.

We watch the next four and I guess all of them right.

"Okay Ash get in goal." Toby says and Ash does. "And...Christen you take."

Christen steps up to take her penalty.

Toby looks at me now.

"Explain to Ash." Toby says.

"Wait what is going on?" Ash asks as I walk up to her.

"Which way are you going?" I ask knowing she is going left.

"Left?"

"Your feet are giving it away."

"How?"

"Your boot is pointing left minutely and if someone pays attention they can guess which way you're going." I say and Ash adjusts her foot so she isn't giving it away. "That's better."

I then walk back over to Toby.

"How did you see that Jordyn?" Toby's friend Kelley asks.

I look down now finding my feet interesting.

"Ex-girlfriend." I say.

"You have nothing to be ashamed about." Toby says and pulls me into her side.

I nod then go sit back down and work on editing and planning videos. Finally I come up with a couple ideas so I answer emails and work on my designs for my new Pretty Little Things collection.

"Hey Jordyn." Christen says and sits next to me.

"Hi Christen." I say as I notice people running. "Are you suppose to be running too?"

"No. My group finished already."

"Oh okay." I say then look at my cousin. "Christen can I ask you something?"

"Of course." Christen says.

"Are you and Toby ever going to get married?" I ask.

"We've talked about it." Christen admits. "Why do you ask?"

"I've never seen Toby as happy as she is when she's around you." I say then look at Christen. "She loves you a lot."

"Well it's a good thing I love her too then isn't it." Christen says.

Christen then wraps her arms around me and pulls me into a hug.

"I love Tobin more than anything in the world Jordyn." Christen whispers. "And when we do get married I promise you I will not take Tobin away from you. She and I both love you so much and we will always be here for you."

"Thank you." I say and sniffle.

"There's my two favorite girls." Toby says with a smile.

"Hi Toby." I say.

"You okay?" Toby questions and I nod. "Babe it's time for finishing practice."

"Ok." Christen says then she kisses my cheek. "Be right back Jordy."

"Bye." I say and wave at my two favorite forwards as they walk away.

I watch the finishing practice for a while then I pack up my stuff.

"Hey Jordyn." Someone says and I look up and see Alex.

"Hi Alex."

"Would you like to go to dinner with some us?"

"Who's going?"

"Everyone except Tobin, Christen, Ali, and Ashlyn...they're having a double date...And pinoe's fifth wheeling for content." Alex says.

"Sure I'll go." I say then get up and the two of us get up and walk off the field

"Hey Jordyn?"

"Yeah?"

"When you did the thing at lunch why did you freak out?" Alex asks.

"You and my ex have the same tiny indention in the bridge of your nose and it freaked me out."

"Oh." Alex says then she frowns. "I'm sorry."

"Don't be." I say and hug the forward. "You are two very different people."

"Hi Jordyn." Kelley says when we get to the bus.

"Hello." I say with a smile.

"Are you coming with us to dinner?"

"Yeah......Is that okay?" I question.

"Of course." Kelley says. "I wanna hear what you've been up to."

"Who's going where?" Christen asks as she wraps an arm around me.

"Jordyn's going to dinner with us." Alex says then I look to my cousin

"Can I?" I question.

"Do you want to?" My cousin asks and I nod. "Then of course you can Jordyn."

"Sweet." I say then follow everyone onto the bus.

Once on the bus I walk down the aisle and try to sit in an empty row, but someone stops me as I walk by.

"Would you like to sit with me?"

I nod and sit next to the woman then we sit in silence the whole ride back to the hotel. When we get back to the hotel I follow Christen and Toby up to our room and I put my stuff away then I meet up with Alex, Kelley, and most of the team out in the hall. We all leave the hotel then we walk down the street to some restaurant where we get seated immediately in a private area.

When we get to our area I sit in between Alex and a woman named Abby while Kelley, a woman named Becky, and a woman named Lindsey sit in front of us.

As I'm looking over the menu the person I least wanted to see walks through the door of the restaurant.

Fuck my life.
