Hit The Volley

Training & Nike

Today is my first training session since we won the cup. It has been a few weeks now, but the feeling will never change. At least I hope it doesn't anyway.

Me, Chloe and Ashley all meet up at our training hall at around 8 am in the morning, before hitting a few spikes and setting a few balls. Ashley set for me first so then I could spike it, and then I would set for Chloe so she could spike it. We were rotating and passing the ball to each other for about 3 hours, while taking several breaks. We were all pretty knackered, with sweat running down our faces as if we just came out of the shower. After our last drink, we couldn't do it anymore.

"Guys, guys, no, no. I cant do it." We hear Ashley say before we go out to another round. We would go again, but for now, we have to agree. We have been working constantly the entire time, and our bodies are getting tired.

"Yeah, I agree." I just say. I honestly can't do it. Chloe also agrees, as I pick up my nike duffel bag and my Lucozade and follow the others. I wipe my sweaty face with my towel, before heading into my car and resting my head on the chair. What a day. I let out a few deep breaths, before I check my phone. I go on messages, only to see that my agent sent me a text, saying that Nike wanted to sign a pro contract with me. I couldn't beleive it. I wanted to work big companies like Nike or Adidas, and to finally get an offer with one of them was just a dream come true. Also, the clubs jerseys are made my Nike, so that's perfect. Apparently they wanted to do a shoot with me for the new kit next season tomorrow. I honestly couldn't wait. And to do it as captain would also be the dream.

Today I will be heading down to the Nike Town in Oxford to do my shoot for our new kit. I haven't actually seen the kit, so this will all be very exciting. I am on my way to London, when all of a sudden, I get a call from Ashley.

"Yo." I say. She hasn't called me in years.

"Hayley, where are you?" She asks. I don't think she knows I am on my way to the Nike Town.

"I am on my way to Oxford street to take a picture for our new kit." I reply.

"Oh, ok. Coz I am heading there as well. Ill see you in 30." She says, and hangs up. You what? She is gonna be there in 30? Oh god. I thought I was gonna be alone. She better not embarrass me or something.

I arrive indeed 30 mins later, and the place was a lot bigger than usual. I head to the top floor where there were a bunch of wires and cameras, until I saw the main person managing them.

"Hiya. I am Hayley." I say, shaking his hand. I think he knows that already, but oh well.

"Hi Hayley, its good to see you. I am Tony, and I am gonna manage your pictures today." He tells me. He gives me a can of Coke to drink since he knows I hate tea or coffee, and I just sit in the corner of the room looking at other people model. I actually saw Alessia Russo doing a few shoots, with a shirt that looked like the new world cup kit. It looked amazing, both the home and away kit. I personally love Alessia, and I have always dreamt of meeting her, but then again, I was just imagining what it would be like it Leah was here. She would pull off any kit, in any hairstyle, in any position. That's what I like about her. I also realised that most of the Lionesses were there for the new kit, its just Leah was missing. Where was she?

Around 15 mins later, I was starting to get bored and tired. I heard the door opening, only to see Ashley drinking a Starbucks coffee. She does not look like she rushed here at all. It's about time. Where the hell was she? Don't tell me that she spent all of her time just ordering a drink?

"Ash, where the hell where you?" I ask, as she pulls me in for a hug.

"Sorry I am late, traffic was really bad." She says. She uses that as an excuse everytime she is late, but I didn't wanna argue with it right now, because I was just so happy she was here. We chatted for a few minutes, before I heard someone behind me.
