NORTH
a week later
"Beat her ass!"I yell.
Astrid turns around and looks at me confused as one of her teammates kick the ball to her.She snaps out of it and start running to the goal.
"Are you confusing soccer with MMA fighting?"Artemis asks amused.
"Isn't that what you say?"."No..definitely not"Mrs.Carrington walks over holding Knox's hand.
"Good evening Ladies"."Wow so proper ,Mrs.C"Artemis says.
She frowns and says "Butterfly has me on this pact to not cuss until the end of her pregnancy.Apparently she thinks that if we don't cuss around our unborn child they won't use bad language"."Well I don't know if that works.Astrid does have the mouth of a sailor".
Mrs.Carrington smiles brightly and says "She does, doesn't she?Im so proud of her".
I give Drew a sideways glance and she shrugs.Mrs.C turns her head to me and says"How are you and my Caterpillar?"."We are doing great?".
"You aren't being a cunt to her anymore are you"."-Uh Mrs.C that's-".
She ignores Drew and focuses back on me."No.I'm treating Astrid the way she should be treated as my girlfriend"."And that is?".
"Like a goddess?"."Right choice of words, Lombardi.Right choice of words".
"GOAL BY ASTRID CARRINGTON! The score is now tied!".
We all get up to cheer Astrid on as she rubs over to hug her teammates.Tatum gets over and Astrid looks at her awkwardly.
They fist bump before Astrid jogs over to her Ma.They continue talking before she looks up in the stands.
Her green eyes lock on me and I smile softly.She smiles at me brightly before turning back to her coaches.

ASTRID
I watch as all of my teammates pat me on the back after our win tonight.As far as career changes go..I honestly didn't know if I wanted to continue my soccer career.
I really want to go Pro and I don't know if I was good enough for it.
Ma always told me that I could do it and she would support me along the way.So I had basically all of the support system I needed with my parents and even North.
"Speedy".
I look up from my locker and turn around.North walks in and looks around to see no one was there.
"Your moms?"."I told them they could celebrate without me.I'm going over to the house to spend the weekend with them anyways".
"Those were some killer goals, Speedy".She slowly walks over to me and I gulp.
"Yea?".
She nods her head and says "I feel like I should be giving you something in return for doing so good"."Gifting me something".
"What do you want".I smirk and wrap my arms around her.
"All I want is right here in front of me"."God you are such a flirt, Carington".
