"Olivia Perkins #5 pick for Las Vegas Aces."

"Women's Team USA wins 1st at Olympics! James Morgan came to see his daughter, Alexis Morgan play. We have another superstar in our hands here, people."

Los Angeles

This feels like a dream. After 4 months, I am finally seeing Cameron again and this time I am staying at his house for a week.

I am spending my first week of Summer with him before heading off to Las Vegas to visit Olivia with Tania. I am sooo excited, I feel like jumping into the deep blue ocean— oh wait, no! That's horrible.

It was hard to reach out to Cameron, I didn't had his number or any of his social media. He followed me on instagram first and we were talking about my games and how he is in NBA camps, learning new things and meeting new people.

Then I told him that I want to come LA, so here I am.

I am only here for about week before I head back and join the rest for summer break, Lucas have some music festival he want us to go to before he starts training.

"Hey you," Cameron approaches me, dressed in ripped jeans and a black tee. He smiles at me and grab my bag from my hands, he hold it over my shoulder and placed his free arm around my shoulder.

"Do you want to rest for a little while?" Cameron ask, holding me close to him.

I look up at him, "I am fine, what do you have planned?" I ask.

He nods his head, "we shall go to disneyland!" Cameron exclaims, rushing to his car. I let out a laugh, suddenly he's a little boy.

Adorable.

He placed my bag in the trunk and got into the driver's seat.

I pulled out my phone and texted Dad that I just arrived in LA.

Dad is calling...

"Hello?" I put my phone to my ear, "pass the phone to Cameron, I want to talk to him." Dad says.

I look over at Cameron, "why?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Because I miss that guy! I want to hear how's he's doing." I roll my eyes at Dad's reply and hand my phone over to Cameron, "hello Mr Morgan!" Cameron smiles widely and starts the car engine.

"Oh yeah, everything has been well. There might be a chance that I will get drafted in my second year."

Cameron laughs and looks at me, "I think she's fine, she don't need any lesson from me."

I put my hand to my head, oh god please Dad.

"See you soon, Mr Morgan." Cameron smiles and passes my phone back to me, "looks like your Dad loves me." Cameron smirk and drive out of the carpark.

I scoff, "dude... He adores you." I shake my head, "too bad I am not a guy." I murmured.

Cameron frowns, "don't say that, you're a great player." I shrug my shoulders.

It's tough being a female athlete. Everyone either have very high expectations of you or degrade you.

"Thanks," I stare out of the window, the endless palm trees lining up along the road.
