((I'm fast forwarding a little bit to just get the story along and I should have mentioned this earlier but in this story, Alex never got injured so she is playing every game))
Chapter 11:
The team was a day away from their last send off game and anyone could just sense the urgency to get to the World Cup.
"TOBIN TOBIN TOBIN." Alex said while bouncing on the bed.
"What do you want, Lex?" Tobin groaned, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
Alex rolled her eyes. "Harsh I was expecting more of a 'Good morning, my love.'"
"It's like seven am and we don't have breakfast until 8:30 so wanna tell me what's got you so excited...my love." Tobin joked.
"Do you trust me?"
"Of course."
"Then follow me." Alex said pulling Tobin out of bed.
"Can't I change first?"
Alex laughed. "No one is going to see you."
They got into the elevator and Alex hit the highest floor.
"Come on, Lex. I already did the roof top date. Don't go taking my ideas now."
"Oh shut up. Just come on." Alex said opening the roof door.
"Okay what did you want to show me?" Tobin asked once they stepped onto the roof.
Alex didn't respond so Tobin followed her to the ledge. And once she hit the ledge, she understood what Alex wanted to show her. The sun was barely rising and the sky was different shades of multiple colors.
"Lex it's beautiful. How did you figure this out?"
"Um before we started dating, I would come up here and just think, mostly about us. The sunrise really calmed me down and I don't know I guess I just wanted to share it with you." Alex said looking down with wetness in her eyes.
Tobin place her hands on the side of Alex's face and picked her head up to look at her.
Tobin rubbed her thumbs under Alex's eyes wiping away the stray tears that were falling. "It's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen besides you of course. And I'm glad you shared it with me. And I'm glad it help calm you down about us because without it, we probably wouldn't be standing here right now and I wouldn't be able to do this."
Tobin connected their lips and Alex could have sworn she saw legit fireworks. Alex rested their foreheads together and sighed.
"I love you, Tobin Powell Heath and these past two months have been the best thing to ever happen to me. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me."
"Good because I just happen to love you too, Alexandra Patricia Morgan. And I wouldn't be half the person I am today without you by my side." Tobin smiled before kissing her once again.
"Wow you guys are so cute, it might make me throw up." Someone said behind them.
The voice belonged to Kelley.
"Awe kels. We still love you!" Tobin said with a grin.
Kelley shook her head. "Yeah yeah love you guys too."
"Wait why are you up here alone?" Alex questioned.
"Um I was..."
"Hope?!" Alex and Tobin yelled out at the same time as Hope walked through the door.
Hope rolled her eyes. "Seriously? Why are you guys up here?"
Tobin raised an eyebrow. "I think the more important question is why are you and Kelley out here?"
