"Are you excited?" Jeri asks over Skype as she eats popcorn. "I wish I was going."
"I am. I want to see how she's settled." I tell my sister while I scroll through Twitter to see that Cody has been busy. "Oh. Wow."
"What?" Jeri asks immediately, not missing a beat. I show her my phone, simply too shocked for words.

"Woah. You didn't know anything about it?" Jeri asks, and I shake my head.
"No."

"Alright, ladies. Again!" Joe yells from the sidelines, and we repeat the play we just successfully pulled off, ending with Leah crossing from the flank, and myself finishing it. Joe slaps me on the back, a grin on his face when it works again. "We have a friendly with Chelsea tomorrow. They have a new player they want to try out, and I think it's safe to say, we all want to see Morgan here, out on that pitch." Joe mentions, and receives several cheers from my teammates.
Joe calls practice and we all break away, the only person not leaving my side is Leah. She's been glued to me since I landed a month ago.
"I wonder who this new player is." She mumbles as we walk to the locker room. "They usually like to brag about the players they recruit, but they've kept this quiet."
I don't offer any input, instead I focus solely on changing my clothes and getting ready to head home for a shower. I slide my shoes on, grabbing my keys to the rental that my club were kind enough to sort out for me, and get ready to leave. I manage to get two steps out of the locker room before a body collides with mine, and I see legs wrap around my midriff before arms sling around my neck.
"Onwards, Idaho!" Leah giggles, pointing forward.
"You're so annoying." I state the obvious, but don't try and shake her off. "How does Jordan put up with you?"
