Olivia's pov

The following day was rough.

Everybody was up until the early hours of the morning celebrating.

Me and less didn't get to sleep until 3 o'clock and the girls had us up at 4, and again at 7.

We were leaving Australia tonight as well.

Despite having two hours sleep, me and lessi took Mais and Lottie for a final walk around Sydney.

It wasn't a long one though because we soon realised that we hadn't packed anything away yet and we were meant to be leaving in four hours time.

We quickly rushed back to the hotel to start packing.

It wouldn't have been a rush if it was just the two of us we were packing for, but we were also packing away loads and loads of baby stuff.

Whilst packing away, I started to get really emotional, and I started crying.

"Oh, baby, why are you crying?" Less asks and hugs me

"It's just, I remember packing all of their stuff back in England and now they're here and they're growing up so quickly." I explain

"Oh, livvy. I know they're growing up quickly, but they're still only one month old. I know it's gone so quickly, but they'll always be our little girls." Less kisses my head. "Do you what to finish packing?"

"Yes please." I say as she wipes my tears away

"Okay, baby. You can sleep if you want. I'll be quiet."

"Thank you, lessi."

The plane ride home was so much better and different than the plane to Australia.

One of the main differences was that I wasn't 8 months pregnant and I wasn't throwing up the whole way.

It was a bit of a struggle to keep Lottie and Maisie calm.

They would start crying out of no where.

They slept for most of the journey though.

I always thought people exaggerated on how much babies sleep but they weren't kidding.

Maisie and Lottie probably slept for 17 hours out of the 24 hours we were on the flight.

Some of the team, like G, Ella, Chloe, Lucy and some others wanted to spend some time with them before we had to separate.

G was taking it hard though. G had connected with Maisie and Lottie over the last month and her having to go to Germany and not seeing them for a month was hard for her.

It was always hard for us too. I mean we're best friends and although we talk everyday, it's not the same face to face.

Me and less were nervous too. I mean, we have to land in England and head straight to our new house, on the opposite side of the country.

Once we landed at the airport, everyone grabbed their luggage.

Less went off to say goodbye to the United girls, Ella and Mary, whilst I went to say goodbye to the city girls.

"I'm going to miss you so much. All of you." I tell them

Lauren, Chloe, Ellie, Laura, Esme, Alex me were all stood in a circle.

We all's decided to do one final 'Manchester city'. We all put our hands in and said it. It's what we always did before matches.

I hugged all of them and started crying. It was really emotional. Manchester City has been my home for three years. These girls had become my family and I had to say goodbye to them.

It was especially hard saying goodbye to Chloe, Lauren, Esme and Ellie. They were the ones I was closest to.

"It won't be long until we see you again, okay? You're gonna make north London shine, do you know that?" Chloe says as she hugs me

"Thanks, Chlo. You keep Manchester blue, okay?" I joke, laughing through the tears

"I promise we will."

After I left them, I went to G to say goodbye.

I approach her and I just hug for a minute straight, not saying anything.

"I'm gonna miss you, G." We had said goodbye so many times but this was different. We'd just spent everyday with each other for a month and now we had to go separate ways.

As we separate, Georgias flight to Germany was called.

"I'm gonna miss you too, livvy. I'll see you next month, okay? I love you." Georgia gives me a final hug

"Love you too, G."

"Tell less and the girls that I said goodbye." G says

"I will. Bye, G."

Next up was Lucy and Kiera. They were waiting around for their flight to be called.

"Hey Luce, kie."

"Hi, kiddo. Excited for north London?" Lucy asks

"Yeah. I'm looking forward to a change. It's just scary, you know?"

"You're gonna be the star of their team, liv. Moving from Man City was the best thing we ever did. As much as we loved it there, a new club and a new beginning is the best thing for anyone." Kiera tells me as their flight is called.

"Kid, you've got to believe me when I say that you've got this. You're an incredible player, liv. Show them that. Now, keep my nieces alive, okay?" Lucy jokes

"You think I can't keep my own daughter alive? Some hope you have for me." I roll my eyes and hug them.

"Go show them who Olivia Russo is." Lucy says as they start walking away.

"Boo! It's an arsenal player!" I hear Lauren joke as I walk past them. They all start laughing and I go and hug them all one last time. It was a big group hug, one that I needed. Unsurprisingly, I started crying again.

"Look, liv, I know you're probably scared for the move, but you are so talented. Arsenal are so lucky to have gained such incredible strikers like you and Alessia. And you're not alone. You've got Alessia, you've got Leah, Beth, Lotte. You've got us. You'll never lose us. Go show arsenal their new talent." Alex tells me

"Thanks, Al."

I walk towards less, still crying. As I walk closer I noticed she was also crying.

I just walk up to her and hug her. We both needed a hug.

Less grabs our suitcases and I grab the girls and we walk out in silence.

Outside the airport, we had a taxi waiting for us.

We buckled the car seats in and put our suit case in the boot before taking a seat.

I sit down and take less' hand in mine.

"You ready for this?"
