You and me

Part 27

Y/N POV

I just stand in the locker room frozen on the spot looking at my bag. I just don't know what to do now. Well, I know exactly what I need to do but this is going to have such a big impact on my career. Maybe it's not going to work out for me and I ruined everything. Maybe Aubrey isn't even going to say yes and then I will look like a complete fool. Well, one way to find out right. Lizzie is probably waiting for me so I will give her a quick call that she doesn't need to wait for me. I dial her number and after some time she picks up. 

Lizzie: Hey superstar, where are you? Me and Clayton are waiting for you. 

Y/N: Yeah, about that. I need to go talk with Aubrey and I don't know how long it's going to take. 

Lizzie: Oh, alright. Is something wrong? 

Y/N: I just think that I made a big mistake. But maybe we can talk about it later over dinner. I was planning on making some spaghetti so maybe you want to come eat. 

Lizzie: Yeah, that's fine but maybe I can make it so when you arrive it will be ready since it's pretty late. 

Y/N: Yeah, that's a good idea. I will go and talk to Aubrey really quick and then I will text you when I leave here. 

Lizzie: Great, take your time and drive safe. 

Y/N: I will. 

I hang up the phone and make my way over to Aubrey. I take all my stuff with me so that when the talk is over I can just leave. I'm so exited for dinner with Lizzie. First of all, I freaking love spaghetti. Like literally, I can eat it every day. And don't get me started on all the cheese that I put on it. I am obsessed with cheese, on my spaghetti I put more parmesan on it than I have spaghetti in the bowl. Okay but enough pasta talk. I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't realize I was already at Aubreys office. I knock on the door and hear Aubrey yelling for me to come in. I walk in the room and see Aubrey sitting at her desk with a laptop in front of her. She sees that it's me who enters the room and immediately shuts her laptop. She sits up straight and has the biggest smile on her face. "Here is my hero. Why aren't you celebrating the win?" I walk further in her office and I just can't contain my nerves. I think that Aubrey sensed that something is wrong because her smile is immediately gone and its replaced by a worried look. "What's wrong? Did something happen between you and Lizzie? Do I need to kill someone?" 

I have a small smile on my face after she said that. Aubrey always jumps to the killing part and I won't be surprised if she means it. I think that she would 100 precent hurt someone if they mess with her family. "No, me and Lizzie are fine." I take a seat in front of Aubrey. "Then what is wrong?" I sight and let my head fall in my hands. "I think that I made a big mistake." I mumble out and then I hear Aubrey getting up from her chair and coming over to me. I look up and see that Aubrey is crouching before me. "What do you mean?" Aubreys words are soft. "I miss being in goal. I don't think that being a striker is made for me. After last game I just realized how much I missed being in goal and I don't get the same feeling from scoring then I get from keeping balls out of the goal." I just pour everything out so that I don't chicken out. Aubrey stands up and starts to pace down her bureau. Fuck, I think that she doesn't like me. Well no shit, I signed the contract as a striker and not as a goalkeeper. "This is a lot to take in but I guess that it's good timing from you to tell me now." What does she mean? Why would it be a good time? "What do you mean?" Aubrey turns around and looks at me with a smile on her face. What is happening? 

"Olivia just came to my office and told me that she is quitting. She doesn't want to be a goalkeeper anymore and she wants to quit the team. Obviously we have two other goalkeepers but they aren't on the same level that you are. Obviously we have Scottie as an attacker so we don't have a problem there. I think that you are the missing link that we are searching for." What the actual fuck is happening? I definitely didn't think that this would happen. "So I can be a goalkeeper?" Aubrey looks at me and just smiles. "Yes you can. We will set a new contract up with all the details but I think that we have a goalkeeper." I jump out of my seat and hug Aubrey. I couldn't be happier. "Obviously you still have two weeks to go before your appointment with the doctor so we will wait for that and after that you can start as our new goalkeeper." Yeah, that's a good decision. I don't want to make my hand any worse.
