Sophia set off towards Bicester not long after lunch. Her and Mason had ended up in bed one more time before they both left, so she was a little bit later than she hoped. But neither the less she was on her way.

She had packed enough clothes for a couple of days and she wasn't sure if she would head straight home after lunch with Mason tomorrow or whether she would maybe ask her parents to stay for one more night, she thought she could decide that on the day.

It had been arranged for her both her sisters, Abigal and Darcy to come for dinner too in Oxford, her parents had said it would be nice to have all the girls back together before Sophia had an exciting summer and she was glad when they said they could make it.

Abigal lived in Oxford and Darcy lived just down by Reading so it wasn't far for them to travel but neither-the-less Sophia felt blessed to have them all come together for her.

It wasn't long after arriving home that the taxi arrived to pick her and her parents up before meeting her sisters in the city and they were soon sat in the restaurant her mum had booked.

"Here's to Sophia" her dad raised a glass "Happy Birthday our darling girl and we couldn't be any more proud of you if we tried" he said with a smile as she leant her head on his shoulder.

"Thanks dad" she replied as he placed a kiss on her head.

"You have such a busy summer Soph" said Darcy with a smile "are you excited?" she leant forward in anticipation.

"Yeah I really am" she replied feeling herself grinning "I'm nervous though but definitely excited"

"Theres no need to be nervous love" said her mum as she looked at her "you are so talented, you will have all those boys doing as they are told"

Sophia laughed at her mum's naivety to it all, she really didn't get that it wasn't all about training but it was down to luck too. You could spend hours on the pitch training and you might not even win, it's the luck of the game, it could change on a knifes edge, which is what Sophia loved most about it.

"I'm sure Soph has been bossing them around" Abigal laughed as Sophia let out a chuckle "But me and Darcy have been speaking and you have to introduce us to some of them when we come to the matches okay"

"Yeah I need to see if Grealish's legs are that hench in person" said Darcy as her mum almost spat out her drink.

"You sound like Amy now as she was basically saying the same" Sophia said with a laugh as she looked towards the group.

"Well I don't know how you do it" continued Darcy "if I was surrounded by all those hot lads I wouldn't be able to keep my hands to myself"

"Oh Darcy" said her dad under his breath shaking his head.

"You do remember you are engaged?" said Abigal as Sophia tried to take a sip of her drink.

"Yep but all I'm saying is if John Stones happened to want to run off with me, I would be very happy with the idea" Darcy said with a smirk as Sophia thought how she would have to tell Alex that one of her sisters wanted to steal her husband.

"At least one of you three aren't objectifying men" said her mum looking at Sophia giving her a smile.

"We are really proud of you though little one" said Abigal as she reached her hand across to Sophia's.

"Thank you" she replied back as she held onto her hand, and Darcy's too and she felt like the small baby sister once again.

Later on in the night the group had headed to a small bar, not wanting to call it a night yet when Sophia's phone rung, she smiled when she saw the name and excused herself outside.
