Alex's POV

"Dude the pictures they took of you both are absolutely everywhere." Tobin says.

"I mean there's nothing to worry about anyway, no one isn't speculating anything." I say as I grab my stuff from the back of the car.

"You just jinxed it Alex." Tobin says. "You just jinxed it."

"I did not." I say laughing as we walk into the apartment. "So what are we eating?"

"Anything but your food."

"You're just jealous."

"Of bland tasting food? That's a hard pass Alex. Your food is flavorless."

"Shut up. I'm going to take a shower, then we'll see what we eat."

Walking to the bathroom, I strip down and get into the shower. I close my eyes as I wash my face then rinse my hair.

"Alex!"

"What?"

"Alex!"

"What Tobin." I shout.

I hear the bathroom door open.

"Tobin I'm taking a shower." I shout.

"It's too important."

"It can't wait? Like wait until I'm out of the shower?"

"No. No it can't wait Alex." Tobin says as she slams her hand on the door.

"Fine. What is it?"

"You jinxed it! Alex your face is all over."

"All over what?"

"Alex. You're the new gossip. That and everyone that attended her concert last week is gossip." Tobin says. "But articles are everywhere."

"I have nothing to worry about for now, what do they say?"

"Well... pretty much just dumb theories. Mine are better."

"Yours?"

"I mean, you know my own theories that I don't say but I think are true? Whatever forget what I said. Pictures of you two are everywhere."

"Let me see. Go wait outside my room."

I quickly rinse off and wrap a towel around my body then put a robe on. I walk out of the bathroom and out of my room to the living room.

"What is it?"

"Here."

Singer Natalie Swift has been seen with professional soccer player Alex Morgan in San Diego walking into a hotel. Sources confirm they were also seen at a restaurant a day after Alex Morgan had a game with the USWNT.

"Oh no."

"Oh yes. Let the theories begin!"

Natalie Swift commented she was there to "support the team" but how true is that?
