Wilder Dreams

Chapter 30

My alarm wakes me up. I look around and my sister isn't in the bed with me. Maybe she's in the bathroom. Yesterday I had put out my outfit today, so I quickly change. I grab my charger and put it in my suitcase. I walk to the bathroom, I was about to knock on it but the door was a little open. I walk in, my sisters not here. Shes probably downstairs. I grab my toothbrush and, my hair brush and everything else. I put it in a special bag and put it in my suitcase. I make my way downstairs. I hear a TV on, and a lot of talking.

"I've never played golf" I hear my sister say. As I got closer, she's on the couch with Brian, and Carli is next to her too. I see them smile and laugh. I quietly sit on the other couch. Of course they see me

"Morning Polar Bear!" All three of them say. I just gave them a glare

"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed" my sister says, causing them to laugh. I crack a smile too. I see she's already dressed up.  Is it weird to say I like this? Carli, my sister and I. Now that Carli knows my sister, she'll treat her like a little sister too. I can already see it. I walk to the kitchen, and there's already food made. Dang did they all just agree to wake up earlier then me?

I grab a plate and serve myself. I sit down and start eating, I've missed Carli's cooking.

"You had a rough day yesterday, we figured you need some sleep. To rest" Carli tells me coming in to the kitchen

"Thank you, and also Dude I've missed your cooking" I tell her. Smiles and ruffles my hair.

"You know I'll see in a week" she tells me. I'm confused, we don't have any international games yet?

"How?" I ask her with my eyebrow raised

"We play Portland next week" she tells me as she makes her shake.

"Oooohhh we are so going to beat you!" I tell her cockily.

"Don't speak to soon" she tells me laughing. We sit and talk about the She Believes cup and possibly the World Cup in the future. It's only 9:30 and my flights at 11. I call my sister down, I bring me suitcase.

"I'll miss you Brian" I hug Brian

"Me too kid" he hugs me back. We pull apart. Carli, Mykayla and I walk out the door. We get in the car and head out to the Philadelphia Airport. Once we get there. I say by to Carli, and she says goodbye to my sister and they even exchange numbers. I take my sister and I to check in our suitcases. Wait.. this is my sisters first time traveling.

"Are you nervous?" I ask her.

"A little" she tells me, as her leg shakes. Right, a little.

"I'm here with you okay? You aren't alone" I tell her, pulling her into a hug. Our flights called eventually. When we board, she's sitting by the window. She looks out the window, her leg is shaking. I put my hand on her knee

"Hey it's going to be okay" I tell her. She looks back at me and then lays her head on my shoulder. I know she'll get use to this. When it's time for take off. I hold her hand. Once we're in the air, she gets up. She looks out the window. She looks astonished

"This is actually really cool!" She says excitedly. The flights about 4 hours. So for half of the time, we fall asleep. We wake up eventually and we watch a movie. We we arrive in Portland, it's like 12. Time change. We get off, head to Luggage claim.  I call a cab. When it gets here,we go in and we head to my apartment. When we get there. I take our suitcases out and pay the driver.

"Welcome to Mi Casa" I tell my sister, as I unlock my front door. We walk in

"You've always been a clean freak huh" she tells me as she looks around. I have to have things clean, I just have too. I walk to my room, and I put my suitcase on the floor and open it up. I pull out my Michelle Akers Jersey. I go to my closet and grab a hanger, I hang it in there. I need to get a glass frame for it later. I walk to my living room, and I see my sister ready to play FIFA. I'm text Tobin
