Left behind

Soon

Jordyn walked into what would be the last breakfast of her first camp, and it made her tear up a little. She grabbed her food and quickly made her way to the 'troublemaker table' which the team named it after finding out how crazy Hayley, Ellie, and Jordyn were. "Jordyn!" Ellie exclaims watching her walk over. Jordyn chuckles at how her face lit up, the two growing close over the two week period.

Sitting down, the three immediately start talking. "So, any plans when you get back to Barca?" Ellie asks. Jordyn swallows her food. "Yeah, finish out the season strong and then, maybe, try something new," she says. Ellie and Hayley both look at her confused. "Try something new? But you're killing it at Barca!" Hayley exclaims. Jordyn shakes her head. "I know, but I want to grow as a player, and sometimes change has to be done to do that, even if I'm terrified," she finishes.

Ellie and Hayley nod in understanding. "Do any of the girls at Barca know?" Ellie asks. Jordyn sets her fork down. "No, and that's what scares me most."

Jordyn chuckles as she walks out into the airport to see a sign with her name on it held by Mapi. The defender who spots the young keeper smiles widely. "Jordy!" She screams dropping the sign to tackle her. "Mapi!" Jordyn replies with the same enthusiasm.

The two hug for a moment happy to see each other before Jordyn pulls away. "Where's Ale?" She asks. Mapi chuckles knowing the girl wanted to see their captain. "She's in the car, made me go to get you because 'you're too excited'," Mapi says, putting the ending in air quotes. Jordyn chuckles. "Sounds like her," she says grabbing her suitcase.

The two make their way out of the airport, the hot Barcelona air immediately surrounding them. Jordyn quickly spots Alexia standing next to her car and drops her suitcase running over to the midfielder. "Ale!" She cries happily. Alexia braces for the impact of the young woman who has become almost a daughter. "Jord!" She yells as she feels Jordyn run into her, immediately wrapping her arms around her. "I missed you so much," Jordyn sighs into her shoulders. Alexia chuckles. "I missed you too Jord," she smiles hugging the girl back, who lets out a small yawn. "C'mon, your tired, so let's go home," Alexia says pulling Jordyn into the car.

Mapi walks over to the car and looks back at Jordyn. "She's tired," Alexia nods. "It was a long flight, and busy 2 weeks, of course she's tired." Mapi puts Jordyn's stuff in the back and climbs into the passenger seat, looking back at the younger girl she chuckles softly. "She's out," she whispers to Alexia. Alexia looks back and smiles at the sight of Jordyn sleeping in the back. "She is."

Jordyn wakes up in her bed in Alexia's apartment. The sun shining slightly through the curtains. Jordyn yawns, stretching in the process, tired from the hell of a flight she had taken.

After looking at her phone for a few minutes Jordyn gets out of bed to take a shower, trying to relax her muscles after sitting in a seat for 20 something hours.

After her shower, she walks out into the small living room to see Alexia sitting on the couch. "Hey," she says taking a seat next to her. Alexia turns to look at me. "I'm gonna adopt a dog," she says smiling, catching me off guard. "I-what?" Jordyn questions. Alexia smiles. "I'm. Adopting. A. Dog." She says again firmly. Jordyn shakes her head. "I got that Ale, but no hello, really?" She says making her face change. "Oh, hi Jordy," she says hugging the girl making her giggle slightly. After they pull away Jordyn looks at Alexia's computer. "Ok, let's look at dogs."

After spending over an hour looking at dogs neither of the two find anything that they like so they both take a break. "Hey Ale, I'm gonna out with Patri," Jordyn says putting her shoes on. Alexia smiles back. "Have fun, and don't get into trouble!" She calls after her going back to looking at dogs.

After an eventful day with Patri Jordyn collapses on her bed, tired from the adventure she had. The pair decided to walk around Barcelona, visiting the beach and going for a swim before stopping to watch a game football played by some girls who were probably 10 or so, afterwards they walked up to talk to them signing things and taking picture with them. One girl said that Jordyn was her favorite which made her tear up a little. (It always does.)

After the two signed things for a good thirty minutes they called it a night. Jordyn returned home to see Alexia on her computer. As Alexia heard her come in she turned towards Jordyn with a big smile on her face turning the screen towards Jordyn who looked at her weirdly. Jordyn looked at the screen to see a dog on it, a very cute dog, that would fit Alexia perfectly. "That's the one?" Jordyn asked, Alexia nodding immediately. "She's so cute oh my gosh!" Alexia exclaims making Jordyn laugh who listens for a few minutes before walking into the kitchen to start dinner away from Alexia who was gushing over the dog oblivious to the fact that she was alone.

Jordyn hummed to herself while making dinner and didn't notice Alexia walk in. Jordyn was distracted in her mind while cutting, distracted enough to end up cutting her finger. "Shit!" She cursed immediately dropping the knife. Alexia who witnessed the whole thing immediately rushed over to help her. "Careful!" She scolded grabbing Jordyns hand and putting it under warm water before running to the bathroom to get something to clean the cut. Alexia rushed back to apply the cream. "Ok, I need you to be still.
," she said quietly. Jordyn nodded understanding what she wanted, but still winced when it touched the cut. "Ow!" After applying the bandage over Jordyn's cut Alexia turns to the younger girl. "What's got you so distracted Jord?" She asked concerned for her roommate and honorary sister. Jordyn swallowed nervously. "I might leave Barca..." she mumbled.

"What!"

Yay or nay on 3rd person, and Spain or England?

Personally, I want Spain to win but I absolutely hate Vilda, I love the girls, and Ona, Alexia, and Aitana winning would make me happy, but I also want to see England win because I don't hate their manager.

Anyways, hoping for an Aussie third place, enjoy the final!
