Anna's POV

Me: GOOD LUCK TODAY!!!

Christen: THANK YOU!!!

Me: WHY ARE WE SCREAM TEXTING?

Christen: I DON'T KNOW

Me: Let's go back to normal.

Me: Are you starting today?

Christen: Yeah I am. Pinoe got hurt so I'm starting in her position.

Christen: Who are you rooting for?

Me: I'm cheering for the food vendor

Christen: 😂 😂 😂

Christen: What?

Me: I can't choose. I'll just be happy for whoever wins.

Christen: Alright. Well I gotta go so I'll see you after.

Me: Okay. I'll see you after the game. 😘

"You ready to go?" Gal asks pulling me away from my phone.

"Yep." I say.

I grab my stuff then follow the actress out of my bedroom and into the living room part of the suite where her kids are.

"Aww." I say when I see Alma and Maya wearing little Tobin Heath jerseys. "That's so cute."

"ANNA." The kids shout and attach themselves to my legs.

"Hello little ones." I say and run my fingers through their hair.

"Come on everyone." Gal says. "We need to go to the game."

"Alright girls." I say then the two kiddos detach themselves from my legs. "Let's go."

The four of us leave my room then head down to the front of the hotel and get in the awaiting car. We then make the long drive from our hotel to the Rose Bowl stadium and when we arrive we walk in with Beth, Leah, and Freya along with their husbands. Our group then heads up to our box and and prepares for England to kick off the Final

Once Ellen White kicks the game off, the US comes out firing especially Rose who has been snatching souls all tournament long.

In the 10th minute Tobin receives a pass from someone then she turns and passes to Rose. When the ball gets to Rose she dummies it and lets it roll past her and into the path of Kelley O'Hara. When Kelley catch's up to the ball she plays a cross first time and the ball goes past the English defense and straight to Christen who heads it into the back of the net making the score

After Christen scores she raises her arms then she looks up to the sky.

"Crap." I mumble and wipe the tears from my eyes as I clap.

"What was that celebration for?" Gal asks.

"Her Mum passed away earlier this year so that was for her Mum."

After Christen celebrates with her teammates she looks up towards where I'm sitting and I smile at my girlfriend then subtly blow her a kiss which causes her to giggle.

"Aww." Freya teases.

"Oh hush." I say and smack her forehead. "Josh get your wife."

Everyone in the box laughs at the little interaction then we turn our attention back towards the field as Ellen restarts the game.

In the 18th minute Keira receives a pass from someone in defense then she turned and hit a cross-field ball to Beth Mead. Mead brings the ball down out of the air then she plays a low cross just in front of the 6 yard box. Ellen timed her run perfectly and re-directed the ball into the right side of the goal making it 1-1.
