Alex's POV
I can't stop looking at Tobin. She came back from the dead. She saw God. She was attacked by Servando. She saved me. She's alive.
"Alex, you're looking at me like I have bugs crawling out of my ears" Tobin said, shifting uncomfortably.
"You just rose from the dead. How do you expect me to react?" I ask, grinning.
"I want you to treat me the same way you've been treating me for the past two years we've been married" Tobin paused. "Its so odd thinking that only yesterday I died, then came back to life"
"It is very odd, but I'm glad to have you back Toby" I smile at her.
We pass the soccer ball back and forth.
"Glad to be back, Alex" Tobin grins.
"Alright ladies! Bring it in!" Coach yells.
We run it over, and he smiles at us.
"Tomorrow, we take on Colombia. You know how they play, and I've watched your last match with them, and it was pretty intense. They play wide" Coach says, and we nod.
We could tell Abby hates Colombia because of the times we encountered them, Abby always picked a fight.
Coach talks more, but all I can hear is Lauren and Tobin making jokes with each other, and laughing. I know its not about me, but I can't help but wonder what or who they're laughing about.
"Do you ladies have something to share with the rest of us, or can we let coach continue?" Abby asks, and Lauren and Tobin get red in the face.
"Nah, we're good. I like to keep a secret a secret. Please continue coach" Tobin said, and I grimace.
She should watch her tongue.
Amy senses my timidness, and nudges me.
I raise my eyebrows at her as in asking. 'What?'.
She points with her eyes at Hope.
I follow her gaze, and see Hope whispering with Kelley, and Kelley giggling.
I give Amy a half smile to ask if they're back together.
She nods.
I mouth 'Awesome'. She nods, grinning.
We focus our attention back on coach.
"Now, ladies, it is not too simple to become great soccer players, and you know that too" He starts. "But I believe that you can become better than you already are...with the right training of course" He smiles. "And I'm going to get you there. No matter what it takes, we're going to have the best players in the world"
I smile at Tobin, who was biting her lip at me. Not now. She's not going to get me right now.
"Tobin?" I ask, when coach said to get a partner.
"Yep" Tobin agreed.
We got into drills, and Tobin can't stop touching my back, my arms, or my legs. She brushed past my butt on purpose.
"Quit it Heath" I growl in her ear.
"Never" She grins.
I roll my eyes.
"What is your deal? What do you want?" I ask, and she grins, and pulls me into her.
"You" She whispers. Her breath makes me have chills sent down my back.
Practice ends and we head to the locker rooms.
"I don't get why everyone thinks I'm so pretty" I say. "I wish I wasn't"
