The day after the plane landed, the team just got used to the time change. Kelley was in her and Tobin's hotel room, reading, while Tobin debated on what to do. Tell the team about her and Alex? Or keep it a secret?

"Just tell them. It's not like they're going to hate you for it. It's your life, not theirs" Kelley said, giving Tobin confidence.

"Okay. I'll do it" Tobin said. She and Alex had only officially started dating a day ago. After the plane ride.

Tobin thought back to after the plane ride. She smirked. Alex was begging for her.

"Hey. Did you hear me?" Kelley asked.

"Uh, no. What did you say? Sorry" Tobin felt bad for not listening to Kelley.

"I'm just saying, that we can call a team meeting and tell them all when they get to our room" Kelley suggested.

"Sounds good. Could you call them?" Tobin bit her lip.

"Fine" Kelley sighed.

"Thanks. I'm really nervous right now" Tobin was shaking.

Soon, everyone was assembled.

"Okay. First, thanks for coming out here everyone. Now. I have something to say. It's really important" Tobin took a deep breath. Her teammates looked on with curiosity. "Alex and I are dating"

"Called it" Kling said aloud. Tobin frowned.

She didn't expect them to take it this well.

Some high fives each other, and others pulled out money that they had for betting and gave it up to those who bet.

"You, you aren't surprised?" Tobin asked. Alex was standing next to her.

"Okay. After I heard you guys basically have sex on the plane, I knew you two were dating" A-Rod laughed.

Tobin blushed a little.

"And so we all knew, that you two had more than just a friendship" Abby smiled.

"Well. I'm relieved that you guys aren't, like, mad" Alex sighed.

"I will be if it starts to effect your play on the field" Jill said from out of nowhere.

Tobin gave a questioning look to Kelley. Kelley shook her head.

Who invited Jill? Tobin asked herself.

"I see your confusion. I slipped in after you were busy freaking out on what to do" Jill smiled.

"Oh" Tobin said. Well this is weird.

"And now, if you don't get to your rooms in about two minutes, extra sprints" Jill said, leaving.

It took everyone about half a second to get up and out the door.

Soon it was just Kelley and Tobin.

"Tobin, that took some guts" Kelley said at last.

Tobin shrugged.

"I guess so" She sat on her bed, and then laid down, passing out in exhaustion.
