Freya's POV
"Alright munchkins." I say as I lead all the kids of the ladies on the national team to the front of the room. "Time to show your Mama's what we learned last night."
"Ooh do we get a show?" Emma asks as the kids get into position here in the Martin family home living room.
We're in New York City now for our final pre-world cup friendly then we're going to stay here since our first match of the world cup is here in New York.
Well I guess technically our first game is in East Rutherford, New Jersey, but that's just a cross the river so we're good.
"Hit it Sophia." I say then Sophia presses play on the speaker.
Once the music the kids learned their dance to last night comes on, all the kids of the ladies on the national team do their dance routine we learned last night while the moms had a night off.
"...and finish." I say then all the kiddos hold their big finish.
"WHEW." Everyone cheers then the moms on the team scoop up their kids and love on them.
"Who knew our babies were little dancers?" Talia says.
"Hey Freya can I play your new song?" Sophia asks.
"Sure." I say as I make funny faces at Azur Jónsdóttir while he plays with my locs.
"Sweet." Sophia says as Raven sits next to me.
"FYI it's for a cowboy movie so that's why it says boy in it." I say then Sophia plays the song.
This love is getting kinda dangerous
Feels like it's a loaded gun
My mind
It's turning like a cloud of dust
My heart always wants to run
Oh, oh, oh
If you want a cowboy on a white horse
Riding off into the sunset
If that's the kinda love you wanna wait for
Hold on tight, girl, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
White horse
Someday, maybe you could have your way
Right now's just not the time
Some things a man's just got to do
I wish you could change my mind
Oh, oh, oh
If you want a cowboy on a white horse
Riding off into the sunset
If that's the kinda love you wanna wait for
Hold on tight, girl, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
White horse
If you want a cowboy on a white horse
Riding off into the sunset
If that's the kinda love you wanna wait for
Hold on tight, girl, I ain't there
If you want a cowboy on a white horse
Riding off into the sunset
If that's the kinda love you wanna wait for
Hold on tight, girl, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
No, I ain't there yet
White horse
"Is that movie out?" Lynn asks.
"Not yet." I say.
"Well it better hurry." Lynn says then a very loud clap of thunder sounds which scares all the kiddos and makes Azur start crying.
"Oh it's okay little one." I say as I notice all the kids coming and sitting around me. "You wanna hear the song my mom sang to me when I was crying.
"Yes please." One of the kids whispers making me chuckle then I start singing.
Come stop your crying
It will be alright
Just take my hand
Hold it tight
I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry
For one so small,
You seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry
Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always
Why can't they understand the way we feel?
They just don't trust what they can't explain
I know we're different but deep inside us
We're not that different at all
And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don't listen to them
Cause what do they know?
We need each other
To have, to hold.
They'll see in time
I know
When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together
Cause you'll be in my heart
Believe me, you'll be in my heart
I'll be there from this day on,
Now and forever more
Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart always
Always
I'll be with you
I'll be there for you always
Always and always
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
I'll be there always.
"Cairo." I whisper as I finish. "Your sons asleep."
"I'll take him." Megan says as she takes Azur from me.
"Auntie Frey can you sing another one?" Katara asks.
"Why of course." I say then I start singing.
Let it go
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don't you know?
The hardest part is over
Let it in
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours
Still remain
Let it slide
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Til you feel it all around you
And I don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by
It's the heart that really matters in the end
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours
Still remain
All of my regret
Will wash away somehow
But I cannot forget
The way I feel right now
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Yeah, these twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
Yeah, but these small hours
And these small hours
Still remain
Yeah
Oh they still remain
These little wonders
Oh, these twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These little wonders
Still remain
"That's a good song." Emma says as she comes over to get her sleepy kids.
"Yeah." I say as I hold Kingsley's head up. "Yeah it is."
