Past Memories

Emma's POV
Me, Rose and Mal have just said bye to the girls and have boarded or plane. It was sad saying by to them but I had to. Even if I think this was my last camp in a while if not ever but Alex promised me another date next time we see each other so that's the only good I guess.

The flight was boring as hell. I pretty much slept the whole time but when I didn't I just stared out the window.

This time Jake where already at the airport when we arrive so I said by to Rose and Mal before entering his car

We just made small talks as he drove me home but he kept saying he has something big in the works but won't tell me which just annoyed me

We finally got home and the first thing I did was fall on my bed tryin to get some sleep and fixing the jet lag

————————————————————————

I have been home for about a week now and my mail has been going crazy. Company's and clubs from all over the country has been sending we stuff and asked if could sign with them and it has just been to much so I'm trying to figure out if I should hire someone to take care of it now that I got some money for the matches I played.

And the r a few days of thinking I decide that it was the best thing to do and after some call I now have a manager named Lisa. We have talked and I have said stuff I absolutely won't do but also trying to figure out if I should sign for a club and the main club being The Spirits because well I already live in the same city

And after a few day I have made my decision. I'm signing so right now I'm in my car and in the way to the arena where they have training right now.

I no longer work at the bar and I have cut down my hours at the cafe for this so it better be worth it is the only thing I'm thinking when I walk in the arena. I'm met by the head coach Rickie.

We have a small talk as we walk to his office and after about 30 minutes I have signed the contract and will start training with them next week.

I walk behind him as we walk to the field. "Okey ladies bring it in" And just a few minutes later everyone is standing in front of him. "So we have a new player and I hope you guys welcome her with open arms" Then he step aside the reveal me

A few seconds later I have Mal and Rose in my arms. "How long have you known" Mal ask giving me a stern look

"That I would sign a few days but I got the offer two or three weeks ago" I answer giving her smile

"I guess you guy know each other but for the people who don't. Would you like to introduce yourself" Rickie then say

"My name is Emma Parker. I play goal keeper and I have been called up to the USWNT twice now that's why I know Rose and Mal" I smile

The next hour I walk around and get to know everyone and they all seem nice even the goalkeeper and I'm there to take her spot.

————————————————————————

It's been a week with the team now and the next national team camp is getting closer. I know Jane is back so I don't think I will get the spot but you never know.

Now I at least can play soccer her at home with Washington. But with the national break coming up we don't have any games until in like three weeks which is after camp and I don't think I will play that game because I'm still very new here.

But other then that life is good. I only work at the cafe three times a week and Lisa have got me some collaborations and sponsors with companies, the biggest being Nike and I'm so excited for that one because I have been I big Nike fan since I was like 10.

Now I'm at the cafe working a few hours with Bella my co-worker when my phone go of
"It's an unknown number" Bella tell me

"Don't answer it then" Soon it stops and go of again

"It's the same number again" This time I walk over to the phone and answer it

"Hi, this is Emma Parker how can I help you"

"You still hasn't put me as a contact" I voice that I know but can place say

"Excuse me who is this" I say a bit confused

"It's Jill Ellis and I'm inviting you to the next camp"
