《Normal is boring》10

While we are heading to our new home, I'm thinking how our life is gonna head in a whole new direction.
People may know me as 'the daughter of'. Ash and Ali may win the World Cup, they are flying to France in five days. It's, strange if that is a good way of saying this.
I'm happy that William and Sam let Vancouver go with us. Vancouver, Jax and I are in the back seat. All the things we need are in the trunk of the car, like our clothes and school stuff. When we arrive at our new house, we decide that Jax and I walk with the dogs and Ash and Ali are going to unload our stuff.
"How life can change is a few seconds, huh?"
"Sure, it's in the better for us. I know they will love us and we love them already so freaking much", I reply.
It silent for a few minutes, just the two of us in our own little world.
"So, Alex Harris, how does it sound?", he asks.
"Pretty good, what do you think, Jax Harris?", he laughs. "Love you two too, little sis."
"I wonder where we will go when the World Cup is."
"I don't know, maybe we are home alone, do we go to family or we go with them."
"I would be nice to go with them, it will be their WC, so yeah. You will never know."
"I'm going to ask them when we are back home."
"We are already calling it home, but it feels so natural."
We continue talking over all the little things and the changes that will happen. For us it's helpful we haven't got any contact with our family, so that is one of the things that we don't have to do.

"Hello to you too Logan and Van", says Ash when we unleash the dogs and they run towards her.
They are way too happy for seeing them only, I think they want food, it's around 7 P.M. After they are feed and we have dinner, we are brainstorming over all the things we have to do. Ash wants a styled bedroom for me and Jax, so that's on the list.
"Do you have a passport, guys?" Ali asks.
"Yes, we have, why?", answers Jax.
"Then I will text Jill with the statement that we need two places more when we fly to France", Ash replies with a big smile on her face.
"I love you so much, you don't even know." I hug them while my eyes water.
"Tomorrow we will get you some new stuff, you will need some USWNT merch and other goods. We live in Florida, in France, the weather will not be that good. So hoodies and long sleeves will be necessary. Ash, can you ask Dan for two times the home and away jersey. Jax, Alex, which names do you want?"
"I want Harris and Krieger on the back if that's possible."
"Sure. And you, Jax?"
"Uhm... Harris and Lloyd on the back please."
"Do you want a goalkeeper or a player jersey for Harris?"
"Goalkeeper', reply Jax and me at the same time.
We laugh.
"So Ash, did you hear that?"
"Sure, I will text him, I will say that he can pick some other stuff too, like scarfs, hats, hoodies, and shirts."
Jax whispers that they are spoiling us. True.
"Ali, can you mail Nike too for some stuff, I will do the same with Umbro."
"Jesus Christ, where comes all the need from to spoil us", I joke.
"You are my kids, don't forget that."
"It feels all a little unreal you know, a few weeks ago you were just two people which I never thought I would meet, ever. And, you know, the World Cup games you are playing, will my first games in a stadium ever."
"Not your last girl." I laugh at the fake voice where Ash is talking in.
It's all going to be okay in the end.
