Don't Fight It.

Chapter Forty-Two

Chapter 42:

Alex woke up earlier than Tobin which wasn't abnormal on game days. She quietly got out of bed making sure not to awake her sleeping girlfriend. Logging into her laptop, she started her usual routine: check emails, check yahoo news, and lastly social medias. Her emails were mostly from the sponsors with some junk mail so she didn't really look through them then she went to yahoo news and her jaw dropped as she saw the first article.

"GAY MARRIAGE LEGAL IN ALL 50 STATES"

Alex screamed which made Tobin jump awake.

"What's wrong?" She quickly asked but Alex was already jumping on top of her.

"Gay. Marriage. Is. Legal. Every. Where." Alex said kissing Tobin in between every word.

"What?" Tobin asked again still sleepy.

Alex laughed. "Fucking gay marriage. Legal everywhere in the U.S."

"Seriously?!" Tobin said perking up.

Alex nodded her head and Tobin leaned up, capturing her lips in a searing kiss.

"I wonder how are teammates are reacting." Tobin said pulling away a little bit.

"I don't even care. I'm too happy and I love you. And I love this. And I love that I can marry you anywhere I want."

"I'm happy too babe. I love you and this and this law from happening." She smiled pulling Alex back down for another kiss.

Hope awoke with a sleeping Kelley on her side. She smiled at how peaceful she looked before placing a light kiss on her forehead which she responded to with cuddling closer. Reaching over the night stand with her free arm, she grabbed her phone and started checking social media. Immediately she saw the gay marriage announcement. Not wanting to wake up Kelley to tell her the good news, she decided to wait until she awoke on her own.

Hope didn't have to wait too long for her to wake up and slowly Kelley groaned and opened her eyes. 

"Hmm good morning." She yawned out while leaning up to give Hope a kiss.

"Morning." Hope replied, giving her a small kiss. "I have some good news to tell you."

Kelley smiled at her. "Ooo I love good news."

Hope laughed while shaking head. "Well. Gay marriage is legal in all fifty states since this morning."

Her face lit up like a kid at Christmas, "You mean all fifty states? Anywhere in the U.S.?"

"Yes all fifty."

Kelley threw herself on top of Hope, forcefully kissing her.

"You happy?"

"Fuck yeah I am."

Hope flipped their positions so she would be on top of Kelley before reconnecting their lips.

Ashlyn and Ali always woke up at the same time it felt like and today was no different.

"Game day, babe." Ashlyn smirked at her, kissing the tip of her nose.

"Yep quarterfinals." Ali smirked back while crinkling her nose.

"We're going to win." Ashlyn said seriously. "No doubt."

Ali's phone vibrated on the bed side table so Ali rolled over and picked it up.

She read the text with a smile on her face before turning back towards Ash.

"Hey babe what state do you want to get married in?" She asked with a smirk on her face.

"Either Florida or Virginia. I don't care whatever you want. Why are you bringing this up?"
