"Bella? Our guests will be over soon."

I smile, "yes, Slate. I know. I've heard over 8 million times. I'll be out in 10 minutes, okay?"

He laughs, "Okay."

"Mommy!" I hear Amaya call my name.

I smile at her. "Where's your brother?" I ask.

She giggles, "playing with Baxter and Everest."

I roll my eyes playfully, "Jasper just not leave those poor dogs alone, does he?"

She laughs, "Nope." She walks out of the room and I turn my computer off and walk out with her.

Slate smiles at me, "I was just about to call you, Caleb is currently crawling looking for you."

I laugh and go over to him and pick him up.

"Momma! Hi" Caleb grins at me.

I smile and kiss his head, "Hi, cutie."

Jasper runs in with Baxter and Everest and giggles. "Dad! Baxter just jumped like, super high! It was awesome!"

Slate smiles, "that's awesome, bud. Are they behaving?"

He nods proudly, "they listen to me pretty well."

Amaya sits down at the table, "You better be nice to Everest."

Jasper sticks his tongue out at her and she hums. "So immature."

Slate shakes his head, "You're seven. How do you even know what that means?"

Amaya grins at him, "I'm educated."

I laugh and put Caleb on my hip, "Homework?"

Amaya grins at me, "Done. All my chores too."

I look at her, "what about your brother?"

"He's...working on it. He's been busy with soccer tryouts."

Those were the days.

I starred at the ball then around Slate, taking a deep breath stepping back, and kicking in the goal, my aim right at his face, he moved out of the way, and I smirk his eyes widened, and I blew my shoulders cockily, he pressed his lips together clearly impressed.

I smile turning around, seeing Skylars' eyes wide, he mouth in a gasp. "Damn, Greene. I knew I would like you."

I smirk, "a lot of people do." We laughed and she playfully punched my hand, we hugged then continued watching the rest of team.

"5.75" Coached yelled as I got through my 13th one, getting nervous I kicked it around the next 2 cones feeling happy, "6.04" I got to the last 2 and breezily got passed them.
