Casey's POV
"Hey so how was last night?"
I walked up to Christen and smiled.
"your plan worked too good..." Christen looked down at her feet and messed with the ball nervously.
I was totally thrown off by the comment. I didn't understand what she meant. Maybe she just worded it weird.
"Too good?"
"Maybe we should talk about this after practice." She walked over to Rory and seemed to talk to him about something. We started practice and were running through drills, Alyssa seemed really tired and played off, Julie seemed extremely happy and was doing great, I was okay, Moe was connecting well with Julie, Sofia played off, Christen oh Christen, something was up with her. She was playing terrible. Her shooting was off, her dribbling was terrible, she seemed slow, unfocused and every time Sofia or Julie, or anyone tried to talk to her, she completely ignored them, blew it off or something like that.
Rory seemed to noticed it too. He set us up on Pk practice and pulled Christen to the side. They seemed to talk for a long time, and just like when she talked to me her eyes were locked on her feet.
He didn't seem mad or upset, but concerned she's his Captain. This team wouldn't be anywhere near the same without Christen. She's a great leader, but not when she's playing and acting like this.
Rory finished his conversation with her and we started a new drill, it was a partner drill. I saw Julie make her way towards Christen, but Christen jogged over to Sofia.
Was this something that happened last night with Julie that changed her mood today. I don't know what it was, but she needs to get over it. I know she's human, she gonna come along problems, but she needs to figure it out.
"Hey, Casey do you know what's wrong with Christen?"
"No, but I'm about to find out, I'll talk to you later Jules bye."
I walked away from the blonde and over to the green eyed forward who seemed to be in a rush. "What the hell is up with you?"
"She kissmdenmelstnight..."
I didn't understand what she said as she quickly mumbled out the words. "She. Kissed. Me. Last. Night."
"Oh..." I stood there in shock, I understand what she meant earlier now.
"She didn't think it was anything which made things even worse...have you ever kissed a married person who just happens to be your ex, it's not an easy thing to let leave your mind." She threw her stuff into her bag before leaving.
"What's up with her?" Alyssa walked up to me and asked.
"Julie kissed her." The words felt normal, but weird at the same time. A few months ago it would have been a happy thing.
"well back to the drawing board for those two." She slung her bag over hey shoulder and walked away. I guess I should go home now, I can't clear the thoughts out of my mind though.

I'm still thinking about Julie and Christen right now as I scrolled through Instagram. I passed a picture of Julie and Zach. It just didn't seem right Julie ended things, after she started them, got married, then kissed Christen.
I passed the picture and kept going, I love going through buzz feed stories you never know what you'll see. This including a story of your teammate. I clicked on the story and started reading. 'Viral video of soccer player Brooklyn Lopez kissing boy at campfire, singing, dancing and more.' Brooklyn what are you up to?
I was surprised to see Mallory and Brooklyn were over too. They were cute together. I watched the vidoes, we all loved listening to Brooklyn sing, now millions of people would in this video. As I watched the vidoe I noticed something. She wasn't acting normal, I kept re watching until I finally caught it.
THEY WERE DRUNK. I should have noticed by how she was dancing. She kind of slurred her singing, but still way better than most people. When everyone else watches this and see's it they're gonna flip, especially Christen.
*buzz buzz*

Bean: Have you seen the buzz feed story on Brooklyn?!?!
Yep...you see what I see?
Moe: Is she drunk?!
I think so....

I watched the video again and read other stories popping up over her.
'Soccer star singing'
'Underage U.S. Soccer star impaired?'
'Sixteen year old Brooklyn Lopez kisses boyfriend?'
'Rumors of US soccer stars dating halted by videos'
'Wild weekends in California from 16 year old us midfielder'
I kept reading through the articles surfacing and thought one thing, she's dead. She's also gonna wake up to a lot tomorrow morning.
