I honestly don't like this chapter.

Chapter 43:

"GAME TIME LADIES!" Abby yelled as the team went back into the locker room after warm ups.

Chants and hollers came from the gals as they started getting pumped up.

The team was honestly surprised, they were playing better without Lauren and Pinoe playing with Morgan as a holding mid. Carli Lloyd was breaking through, scoring their only goal of the match.

"GOING TO THE SEMIS BITCHES!" Pinoe yelled, jumping into the post-game huddle along with Cheney.

The team made a round of autographs and Tobin and Alex couldn't help but laugh at a sign that said "Alex, Tobin. Gay marriage is legal so when's the wedding?"

The couple made their way over and quickly signed it, telling the teenage girl that the wedding was still awhile away before heading back to the locker room.

Everyone took their time putting their stuff away but Julie happened to finish before Christen so she walked over and sat by her locker, waiting for her to be done.

"You could have headed to the bus. You didn't have to wait for me." Christen said putting her cleats in her bag.

"I don't mind waiting." Julie smiled at her as other teammates began leaving the locker room.

Christen took off her jersey and Julie couldn't help but smirk at the sight which Christen caught her doing.

"Wipe that smirk off your face, Johnston." She warned jokingly.

"Or what?" Julie tempted as Christen dug through her bag for a clean shirt.

"Ten minutes!" Jill yelled through the door which made all the other girls rush out to make the bus.

Once the door closed behind the last player, Julie pulled a still shirtless Christen onto her lap, turning her so they were facing each other.

"We have to get to the bus." Christen said quietly.

Julie ran her hands along her sides, letting them rest gently on her lower back.

"Ten minutes is a long time." She said raising her eye brow before placing a kiss directly on her pulse point.

"Later." Christen mumbled out putting a hand to Julie's chest pushing her away.

"You're no fun. But fine." Julie smiled, placing a kiss on her lips.

Christen quickly finished packing her stuff and got on the bus just in time.

Jill called for their attention on the front of the bus, "First, great win ladies! And secondly, with the win and gay marriage being legalized, I'm giving you guys the day off tomorrow so use it wisely!"

"Whoop whoop!" Pinoe shouted and the rest of them clapped/laughed.

"I think Jill knew of my intentions." Julie whispered seductively into Christen's ear.

Christen hated when Julie was winning so she rested her hand on Julie's thigh, squeezing it softly while moving it up and down.

The teasing continued the entire way back to the hotel and the pair basically ran off the bus.

"I dare someone to go ask if they want to hang out." Syd challenged.

"Nah I think we've kept them from doing it long enough." Pinoe chipped in earning a laugh from a lot of the other girls.

Christen wanted the elevator to themselves but a businessman joined them so the couple kept their distance, trying very hard to not let the sexual tension show. Luckily the man got off a floor earlier and Julie couldn't help but lick her lips as she made contact with her girlfriend's eye which were as dark as night.
