Past Memories

Emma's POV
After Jack finally got ready me and Alex gave him instructions to where to go and what to do and he is now leaving. "You will love it trust me"

"Bitch, you aren't good at these things either"

"Well it seems like I am because if you haven't seen I have a drop dead gorgeous girlfriend" I say turning to Alex giving her a wink. "Just get in the car before your going to be late" I say shoving him out of the hotel lobby.

When we are sure that he is in the car and can't turn back we both start to walk back to the elevators but to our surprise they are closed for reparation. "Don't they have respect for pregnant people" Alex complain

"We live on the third floor not the tenth so I think you will be okey" I say turning to find the door to the stairs with Alex following me but just as we turn the last corner to walk up the fouth set of stairs I stop dead in my tracks making Alex walk into me.

"What was th.....Really guys. In the staircase" Alex say when she see what I see. In front of us a very flustered Tobin and Christen are standing. "You two are weird. Who decides to make out in the stairs"

"No one use the stairs apart from you to psychos" Tobin say trying to defend them.

I just chuckle at it before answering. "Well one. The elevator is closed and two. You guys are rooming together so why here" I say as I start walking up the last stairs and just as I pass them I finish my sentence. "Sorry forgot. You guys couldn't resist that long" And then I take of running to not get in trouble with the love birds.

Lucky me makes it to the room before one of the forwards can catch up to me. Just a minute later Alex also walk in and lay down next to me on the bed. "What you want to do now" She ask looking at me

"I don't know. How about a movie just you and me"

"Sounds absolute perfect" She answer as she cuddle closer to me and I grab my Mac Book room the night stand opening Netflix

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We won the game which was nice but now I have to mentally prepare myself for the meeting with the Swede. We are going out for dinner at 7 and right now it's 5:30. So I quickly got in the shower and then blow dry my hair before walking out and trying to find an outfit.

With some help of Alex I ended up with a par of black ripped jeans, a plain black shirt and purple converse, snap back and her Orlando pride zip up jacket.

Soon I made my way down to the lobby and into the uber a ordered giving the driver the address to the restaurant we were meeting up at. When he stopped I payed him and took one last breath before I stepped out the car and into the restaurant. I got lead to a table and to my surprises she was already there.

When she saw me walk over she stood up and shook my hand before we both sat down again. We started with some small talk about mostly soccer before we went to why we were actually there.

She started of with telling her side of the story and then I went on to tell mine. There were a few tears here and there but when we were done it felt good to have got something that big of my chest.

We decided to walk back to the hotel together because both team stay at the same one until tomorrow when we fly to Florida and they fly back to Sweden. "One question. Last time I checked you played for Washington and not Orlando" She question looking at me. "That's right and I still play in DC but my girlfriend play for Orlando and she was the one to pick the outfit out so I just do what my girlfriend want me to do" This makes he chuckle as we arrive at the hotel

We say our goodbyes but we are staying in touch and hopefully we can meet up again if we cross paths.

And then make my way up to my room collapsing on the bed to tired to care about undressing myself. It doesn't take long until I'm out but I get back to reality when I hear the door open and close. Soon after I can feel Alex taking my pants and zip up jacket of before tucking us both in bed leaving a kiss on my head and wrapping her arms around me.

————————————————————————

The last week has been hectic. After our last game for this year camp ended and I flew to DC grabbing some more of my stuff before flying down to Orlando to be with Alex during her pregnancy but shit has start to hit me. I'm going to be a parent. I don't know how a parent act. I never had one who really cared about me. How do you managed kids and career. This and so many more questions are circling in my head so I have been spending almost all of my time awake playing video games

And this is something Alex doesn't enjoy. We have had multiple small fights the last week but I think she is over reacting

Alex's POV
Emma has been a jerk the last two weeks and I hate it. We are professionals athletes and the most active thing she has done is take a walk with me once. For gods sake. I'm 19 weeks pregnant and work out 4-5 times a week right now.

Anyway. Now it's 10pm and I'm about to go to bed but I can still hear the game turned on down stairs. So I make my way down the stairs to find Emma playing some game with cars. "Are you coming to bed babe" I ask trying to keep my eyes open

"Soon. Can you please go your distracting me" She answer not taking her eyes of the screen

"Babe, you need to sleep. You have been going to bed way to late lately" I say trying to look out for her

"Can you just be quiet please" She say racing her voice at me

"You know what. You have been an ass the last week so you are sleeping on the couch" And with that I walk out the living room and up the stairs locking the door before laying down on the bed trying not to cry

But I can't. I start to sob into the pillow and I don't know how long I have been laying there when I hear someone trying to open the door multiple times and then Emma muttering something before walking back down stairs

I look at the time. 11pm. And then take my phone searching for Christens number knowing she's in Portland with Tobin and it's only 8 there

Three signals pass before she answer. "Hi Al. What's going on?"

This makes me burst out crying again as I fall backwards on the bed. "What's going on. Is Emma there"

When I don't answer she try to calm me down instead and a few minutes later I can at least talk. "Em....Emma" I say still sobbing

"What's up with Emma" She ask in a soft voice

"The....the only th....thing she d...do is pl....play video games and she d....doesn't do anything el...else. It's worrying me. She...she eat less. Don't leave the house and as....as soon as I try to ta...talk to her she just get sassy" I try to explain to Christen

"Alex. I want you to try and calm down and get some sleep. Both you and the baby needs it and I'm going to call Emma and talk with her. Okey? Let me know tomorrow"

"Okey. Thank you"

"No problem now have a nice night" And with that I place my phone back on the night stand and take a few deep breaths before trying to fall asleep which is harder then I thought when I don't have two string arms wrapped around me
