*Easton Klingenberg POV*
"Please welcome Miss. Easton Kilngenberg to the team" the voice said, and I walked in. I hugged Jill and Dawn before a crowd of the players that I already knew ran up and hugged me as well. At 19 you would think that I would still be in college, right? I am online schooling while at the National Team Camp.
My eyes searched for the only player that I was pumped to see again. I made eye contact with her, and she walked fast and jumped into my arms after everybody else released me from their grip. She wrapped her arms around my neck and legs around my waist and it just felt right, like all of the other times we had spent together. After a few seconds, she detaches from me and puts her hands on my shoulders and smiles.
"Hey Chrissy" I say using my nickname for her. "I missed you" she whispers to me. She grabs my hand and pulls me over to sit by her while Jill asks me to say somethings about myself.
"Hey, I'm Easton, I'm 19. My siblings are Drew and Meghan Klingenberg. I'm a 5'6 all-around player and I attend Stanford" I say and Jill thanks me before I sit down and lay my head on Christen's shoulder as we listened to the team talk. After she was done, she assigned rooms I was rooming with Christen and in the room connected to ours are Becky and Alyssa. Hope and Carli were rooming together. Tobin and Alex. Mal and Kelley. Ashlyn and Ali. Rose and Megan. Emily and Sam. I stopped listening. Christen stood up and laced our fingers together.
Oh, how I love this girl. I'll never tell her though. She swipes the key card and we put our stuff down in the same area. She pulls me over to the first bed and pulls the covers over us after we lay down. I put my head on her chest and throw my arm over her. Not to sound weird or anything but her scent gives me comfort. We lay like this until we have to get ready for training.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After we get back from training and shower, Jill lets us go out to eat in groups. Becky, Hope, Alyssa, Carli, Christen, and I are all going together. Christen and I walk together to the lobby of the hotel to wait for everyone that is coming. Once we were all in the lobby, we walked down the street to get to the place. We tell the person how many we have, and they get us seated. They take our orders, and we start to talk.
We were interrupted by my phone ringing. I looked at the name and my facial expression changed. I looked up to Hope, because she was the only one that knew about what was happening with this person. Hope nodded her head to the door and spoke for us, telling them that it was an important phone call. After we walked out the door, she grabbed my hand as I clicked answer.
"That child of yours is a brat" he calls out right away and I cringe.
"Why Brad?" I question because she never acts like he describes her.
"She just is, and I don't want her here anymore" he says. "I'll call someone to get her then if you pack her stuff up and send it with" he murmurs something and then follows with "Good" and then he hangs up. I dial a number and then put the phone back up to my ear.
"Hello" the voice calls
"Hey Demi, I need a favor" I say, hoping that I'm not bothering her.
"Anything for you, what's up?"
"Can you go and get Kamdin from Brad's" I say on the verge of tears. "Yeah, of course" she replies.
"Thank you so much Demi" "It's my pleasure bud" "He should have everything ready to go" With one more final thank you and it's no problem, we hang up. I put my phone into my pocket. In one swift motion, I'm wrapped up in Hope's arms.
