Brooklyn's POV

"Alex stop." I could keep my giggles quiet as Alex's arms wrapped around me. "Shh." She put her index finger over my lips and smiled. "So we're completely good now?" 

"Yea, I love you Brooklyn, you're the daughter of the team, moms always forgive." She pulled me into a tight hug and held me there for a long time. It was great that she could do something others can't. Alex isn't the only person who I've talked to and ended all issues with. 

Christen was never really mad. Julie was over it fast. Tobin is still a little mad, but is quickly being okay with me again. Mallory...Mallory is different. I punched her, knocked her out, how fast is she supposed to forgive me. I'm okay with giving her extra time.

"Do you still think about her? Mallory, is- she umm still mad at you?" I nodded and Alex lowered her eyes. She'll come around hopefully, everyone keeps telling me that. I don't know how long it will be until she does though. 

"What...whataboutsam?" She mumbled the words together nervously.

"We're good, kinda, i don't really know..."

Past

"I'll be right back I'm gonna run to the bathroom."  I got up and left the table. Things seemed to be going okay. Sarah was having fun talking to them. Sam hasn't done anything bad. It's been pretty okay so far. 

I heard the door open behind me as I washed my hands.

"Why are we doing this?" 

It was, correction from going okay to was okay. I knew she was gonna get upset. I can't say Sam is completely good for me, but I can't let her go. She's just something I need. I let out a sigh and turned around. Leaning against the sink I crossed my arms. 

"Why can't you just be open and happy about me making new friends and knowing new people? Sam you talk to so many guys and I don't care, and not to mention they're in their twenties, so what's the problem. It can't be jealousy that I'll break up with you because of them." 

"I don't get jealous- I don't wanna lose you, babe-" she walked over and placed a hand around each side of me on the sink. My breathe hitched as she pinned me to the sink. 

"We can't- not right now, not here." 

She smirked before pushing away and walking towards the door. "Come on." 

~~~~~~~~~~

"I-I had every right to be jealous." 

"Sam no you don't, how does me taking Julie up there upset you that bad?!" 

"Because that was ours, we were the only ones ever up there. We, not you and some new teammate. I miss the Brooklyn before you were on this team. Even with basketball and soccer at school you FaceTime and text me more. I rarely talk to you!" 

"Why can't you be happy for me, this is amazing, I'm on the fucking NATIONAL TEAM!" 

I can't believe her. How could she be so selfish. I'm living my dream, well one of them. She's such a jealous bitch. "I don't know why, why the hell I crawl back to you." 

"Because...we're supposed to be together, but it's a little hard when you can't keep your mind of a ball. All you do is sports, I want the more musical Brooklyn, the more studious Brooklyn, the funny Brooklyn, I don't want the sports player Brooklyn." 

"You should just want Brooklyn...the type of Brooklyn you can get..." 

"If neither of us are happy then why are we doing this?" Sam's question made me upset, beyond belief, but if that's what she wants.

Someone walked into the room. "I'm leaving." Sam grabbed her stuff and rushed out the door. 

"You good?" I turned around to see Julie. I nodded my head hoping this what just a nightmare.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PRESENT

"Oh, sorry." 

I nodded and took in a deep breath. "Thanks Alex, it really means a lot that you forgave me.

"I couldn't stay mad at you." I smiled. She has no idea that really no one can.
