Alli's POV
I woke up the next morning with a pounding headache. I didn't even drink that much yet I'm hungover. Apparently I can't have two drinks without feeling like there was a ticking bomb planted in my head.
After I took some Advil, I checked the time. It was 9:25 and I'm supposed to be meeting my parents at 10:00 in downtown Barcelona.
I hurried along and got dressed in some leggings and a Nike T-shirt because I definitely did not feel like dressing up today. Or hardly ever for that matter.
I washed my face and tied my hair up in a messy bun and applied a little bit of mascara. I don't really care how ugly I looked this morning. My ugliness shouldn't effect anybody else.
I finished getting ready and grabbed a granola bar because I was starving at the moment. I got in my car and started to drive downtown.
Right in the middle of my jams, I got a call. It was an unknown number.
"Hello," I answered kind of confused.
"Hey, Alli its Alex."
OH MY GOD. Alex Morgan is like one of the faces of women's soccer and she's calling me? I mean, we played on the same team and stuff but then she got injured so for the last month and a half or so i hadn't seen her.
"Oh hey Alex! What's up? Sorry I seemed confused I thought I had your number."
"Oh! It's fine! I had to get a new number, my old one got leaked somehow."
I groaned and said, "That sucks. How is your knee?"
"Oh it's doing a lot better. I'm going to physical therapy every day and it's getting stronger and stronger with each visit so I'm pretty happy about that. Anyway, I heard from a little birdie you'll be signing with Barcelona!"
"Yeah, I am! I'm so excited, I was never expecting this."
"Yeah, Tobin was so excited for you! That's amazing. You honestly deserve to be on the team. Your skills amaze me."
"Thank you so much! I could honestly say that about you too. I really enjoyed playing soccer with you."
"Yeah me too. Well, I gotta go. Have fun playing with Barca!"
"I will. Bye!"
Alex Morgan just called me and I'm actually deceased now. Not only did she call me, she complimented me. Now I know Tobin brags about me. Nice Tobs.
I finally arrived at the cafe and saw my parents waiting inside. I parked my car on the side of the street and headed inside.
"Hey, Maddy! We haven't seen you in a while," my mom said once we saw each other.
"Hey mom. Hey dad." I hugged them both.
"Are you going to order anything? There's lots here." My mom lead me to where I could order and I looked at the menu.
"Hi, could I have a coffee and a chocolate chip muffin please," I told the cashier lady.
"That'll be 6.99," she told me. I paid for my muffin and coffee and then moved to a different line to wait for it.
Once I got what I ordered, I sat down with my mom and dad.
"So how has training been going?" My dad asked me.
"Good, I guess." I took a sip of my coffee. "I've made a few friends."
"Do you have any guy friends?" My mom raised her eyebrows.
