Lost - Ellie Carpenter and Daniëlle Van De Donk

International break

It was international break this week. I only had a home game this time, meaning my travel for this week was quite minimal.

It's been a weird week, I've been sharing a room with Dama though, which has definitely been a highlight. Except for the fact she loves making fun of me, meaning that whenever i'm messaging Ellie, she always has a suggestive comment to throw at me.

"Hurry up we are going to be late for training" I shout, waiting impatiently for Dama who has only just gotten out of the shower, and there only being 10 minutes to get downstairs to meet with the team.

"I'll make it don't you worry" Dama says, walking out the bathroom in her training clothes but still a towel wrapped around her hair.

"Why are you always so late" I ask, still trying to get her to hurry up

"Because you hog the bathroom" She states, disappearing into the bathroom again.

"Excuse me, no I do not" I argue back. This is definitely not on me.

"Yeah that or you spend too long chatting with Carpenter so you go to the bathroom late so I go to the bathroom late"

"Go earlier next time"

"Pshhh as if" Dama laughs, making it very clear that she was not going to be changing her morning routine any time soon.

As you can see the one bathroom situation isn't working great.

I give up with Dama and trying to hurry her up, instead falling back down on the bed while waiting for her to get ready.

And, I've got to give her credit, we did make it, and with a minute to spare, so it wasn't too bad.

-----------------------------

We got back from training a bit later than usual, since Jonker wanted to talk through a bunch of things before we left for the game tomorrow, so getting back to the hotel room felt even better.

When I walked in, the first thing I did was take my shoes off and jump onto my bed to lay face down on it.

"Ohhh it's so comfortable" I mumble, my words not being able to form properly because of the pillows my head was on. All I could hear is Dama's laugh, as she went to go sit on her bed as well, clearly in need of a phone break.

We stayed like that for a few more minutes, until I ended up almost suffocating with my head in the pillows so decided to prob myself up on my elbows and take my phone out.

I go look through Instagram first, but got bored shockingly quickly, instead deciding to call Ellie.

My finger was hovering above her contact in my phone for a few seconds, as I was wondering if she might be busy, but I decided to call anyway.

It was ringing for a few seconds before Ellie answered, her hair still wet and she was sat up in bed. She looked so naturally gorgeous..

"Hey Ellie"

"Hey Daan hows it going?"

"Its good, it's good, and you?"

"Same here"

"Hi Ellie!" Dama shouts, who is still laying on her bed across the room. I turn the phone in her direction so that they can see each other.

"Hey Dama" Ellie replied.

"Okay I have something to tell you" I say, turning the phone back to me.

"Yeah, what is it?"

"So you know how Dama loves to brag and be the best"
