i woke up to hear my phone vibrating. i picked it up and opened the text message

[From: Niall:]

Hey! The teams tournament is this afternoon. I know i got fired and you got kicked off the team but we should go to show our support.

I smiled, got up and got dressed. it started at 2 and it was only 11 so definately had time.i texted Niall. 

[To: Niall:]

Of course we should!

I walked downstairs to see my mom and my sister on the couch. Izzy was watching sponge bob and mom was doing some crossword puzzle in the paper. "Morning Guys" they smiled at me. "Good morning sweetheart. Theres some bacon left on the kitchen cabinet if you'd like some." i walked into the kitchen and picked up the bacon. Moments late, my phone again, vibrated in my pocket. i opened up gthe text message. 

[From: Niall:]

Do you wanna meet at My house? We're all gonna hang there for awhile before heading to the game.

The smile on my face grew two times its size. 

[To: Niall:]

Be there soon!

i ran upstairs and put on my favorite shoes. before i knew it i was back down the stairs and standing in front of my mom. She lowered her newspaper and looked at me. "...Yes??" i let out a small laugh. i had asked her in my mind but i guess the words never actually escaped my mouth. "Oh! right. Can you give me a lift to Nialls? Pleeease? please please? Pretty please?" she laughed and folder her paper nicely setting it down beside her on the couch. "What for?"  She got up walking to the cabinet and cleaning it off. "Well Everyone is hanging there before going to the game." She gave me a confused look. "everyone,.." "You knowww,.. the guys, they're girlfriends. Everyone." she let out a small laugh and grabbed her keys. "Come on. Izzy do not answer that door if anyone knocks and if someone calls, let the answering machine get it." We walked out the door and she drove me to Nialls. I got out and saw him and a couple of the guys standing in the drive way. i ran up to hi, jumping into his arms. Niall laughed and tightly hugged me. We all walked inside to see nialls mom and dad sitting in the kitchen. i smiled and walked over to Maura giving her a side hug, doing the same with Bobby. we had a short conversation before i returned to the living room, sitting on the small couch next to Niall. Suddenly lux ran up to me giving me a drawing of hers. i laughed a little. "Aww thank you! its so pretty!" "Lux" i heard harry say from the other couch. He smiled as she ran over to him. Harry spent alot of time with Lux. It was cute. He will be a great dad some day. She giggled as Harry lifted her up onto his lap. Zayn poked her tummy making her giggle more. I laughed at the sight. I wanna have a little girl some day. Seeing Niall play with her will be the best sight i've ever seen. That is if Niall will be the one i marry anyway. I felt him squeeze my hand a little. It broke my thoughts from Lux and i looked over at him. "Huh?" He smiled. "What do you wanna eat?" "Oh! um, i dont care haha. Anythings good for me." After eating and hanging for a while it was now about 1:10.

"Alright. Who's taking what car?" Liam asked getting everyone's attention. 

Everyone decided on their rides and we all headed out. When we got to the game. I sat in the bleachers looking down at Lucy. She smiled and waved. i waved back. She motioned for me to come down there. i got up and walked down to her. "Hey!!" She hugged me. i laughed. "Hey" "I've missed you at practice. They shouldnt have kicked you off the team. They could've fire niall but you were our best player!." i nodded "But if Niall was going to get fired i felt it was only fair for me to be kicked off the team too because i was a part of it too." She nodded. Coach Myers blew his whistle to get Luce's attention. She looked at me. "Well i gotta go. I'll see you after the game" she ran off and i walked back up and sat next to Niall. He smiled and i let out a sigh, resting my head on his shoulder. "I know princess.. I know. Its okay." i nodded. Soon the game started and every time they'd get the ball close to the net, i would get all tense hoping they'd get a goal. "Come on.." i kept saying to myself. Lucy ran kicking the ball. The girls from the other team tried getting the ball from her but she was too quick. Lucy kicked the ball getting it into the goal. I stood up with my arms in the air as did niall. "Yeahh!!!!!" he gave me a high five. We soon sat back down. The score was 3 to 3. we were tied. After the team returned to the field the coach looked up at me for a moment and then turned to a referee.  I sat still and watched as the ball kept going from one side of the field to the other. Coach Myers looked up at me and gave me a motion to come down there. I nervously looked at Niall. "Ally I dont care if i was fired. If they need you on that team, go." i smiled and hugged him before coming down to the coach. "Alright number 4." He said putting my old jersey over my head. i put my arms through the sleeves and looked at him. "You know the score. And the team is getting beat up out there." He put his hands on my shoulders. "Can you save us Number 4??" i smiled. "I can do more than that coach. i can make us win." He smiled and patted my back. "Then go make us win!" i ran out onto the field. Lucy had been in the position that i had been playing before i got kicked off the team. Seeing me, she smiled and switched positions. The ball was quickly passed to me and i ran as fast as i could to the other side kicking it as i went. Girls from the other team were starting to surround me. The pressure was on. i looked around seeing Number 14 open. i kicked her the ball and she ran. i quickly ran past the other girls and close to the goal. Number 14 passed the ball back and i kicked it as hard as i could. The goal keeper unfortunately caught it. "Ugh" i thought. "Dang it." the ball was thrown back out to the field and quickly i ran dodging the girls that tried to block me from getting the ball. Lucy had stolen the ball and passed it to me. Again, i ran as fast as i could kicking the ball as i went. i heard Niall in the bleachers cheering me on. The closer i got to the goal the slower things around me felt. I looked around. Lucy and another one of my team mates stood, open. The Goal keeper gave me a look that said Bring It On. Its like i could read her mind. "I heard people on the bleachers yelling "Kick it!!!" Those people being the boys and they're girlfriends of course. I looked at Louis who was also yelling the same. Knowing Lou was extremely good at soccer i should probably listen to him. I looked at the ball and kicked it as hard as i could, looking up at the goal. The goal keeper jumped for it but missed and the soccer ball hit the inside of the net. A smile grew on my face as my team started jumping and crowding around me. It was as if i were in shock for a moment before i looked around and starting cheering with my team. Lucy and Angela lifted me up onto their shoulders. Carmen and Brittany held my legs. A trophy was handed to me and i held it up laughing and smiling. i saw Niall standing up with everyone and cheering.  Some people took my picture. i was put down after a moment. We all stood as a team and i stood in the middle and held the trophy as a guy took our picture. After that i handed it to Lucy and ran over to Niall who was now standing on the field. He hugged me. "I am so proud of you!" i smiled. "But What about your job?" "Dont worry about that Princess. i could careless about that. Right now i am just too proud of you" He hugged me open more time before i got a hug from everyone else as well.

After that day, everything between me and Niall stayed the same. The team won many more tournaments and the group of friends stayed a family for the rest of our lives. Me and Niall ended up getting Married when i was 22. He proposed to me on the beach. How sweet is that? And now after two years we have a little girl  named Bella Marie. She's the sweetest little girl you could ever meet and she loves her daddy more than anything.

 My Life has been perfect so far and i couldnt be happier.
