"So what exactly are we doing?" I ask as I follow the directions from WAZE.

"Apparently they're doing a ceremony for us at the start of the game then we are staying and watching the game." Christen says from the backseat.

"Us the Royals or Us the national team girls?"

"The Royals." Becky says also from the back seat. "Attendance dropped while we were gone so they're trying to get the attendance back."

"And what team are we watching?"

"The Salt Lake Bees." Kelley says as I pull into the stadium of the Bees.

"You and I have done so many sports things lately Kels." I say as I try to find parking.

"What all have you guys done?" Christen asks.

"Uh we went to an Atlanta Braves game and both of us threw out the first pitch, then Atlanta United did a little recognition thing at halftime, and lastly the Falcons had us come to their Training camp to speak with the team for some reason." I say.

"Every team also gave us jerseys with our name and numbers on them." Kelley says as I park.

Once I park the four of us get out of the car and walk towards where we are told to meet.

"How'd that tweet go down Astrid?" Becky asks.

"I have no clue." I say. "I haven't checked my mentions since I tweeted it, but I'm guessing it got the same response as Ali and Pinoe's tweets.

"It did." Kelley confirms.

The four of us get to where we were told to meet and wait with the other Utah Royals ladies. A little while later the whole team is lead onto the field and we stand around for the ceremony then Kelley throws out the first pitch.

"Good thing you didn't bounce it." I say when Kelley comes back over.

After the ceremony thing we get led to our seats and I sit in between Amy and Christen.

In the 3rd inning I'm talking to Amy about how Tobin and I got together when one of the Salt Lake players fouls a ball off in our direction. Immediately I realize the ball is coming right for Amy's youngest son.

"LUKE WATCH OUT." I shout and reach around Amy.

Luckily my hand gets there just in time for me to catch the ball right before it hits the little boy.

"SON OF A...Biscuit eater." I say, but don't cuss since there are little kids around. "Luke you alright."

"That was really cool." Luke says and smiles at me. "How'd you catch that?"

"No clue." I say and chuckle a bit then I remember the ball in my hand so I hold it out to the cute little boy. "Here ya go sweetie."

"Thanks Astrid." Luke says and takes the ball.

"Seriously Astrid." Amy says and hugs me. "Thank you."

"No biggie." I say as I shake my hand trying to regain feeling. "Geez that was coming fast."

"Do you need ice or something?" Christen asks.

"No I'm good." I say and grab my ice cold soda. "This is enough."

All of the sudden Kelley climbs over Christen and sits her self on my lap.

"Are you okay?" Kelley asks.

"I'm fine Kels." I say as my twin checks my hand. "I remembered at the last second not to cuss because of the children."

"I would've let you." Amy says.

Kelley then climbs back over Christen then sits back down as I pull out my phone to check up on social media between innings.

"What does this mean?" I ask and show Christen my phone.

"What the?" Christen says and takes my phone. "Becky is this true?"

Becky leans forward and looks at my phone.

"Oh I guess the league listened to the fans." Becky says as I'm handed my phone. "Apparently the fans of every other team besides the Courage said they wouldn't show up for the final in North Carolina."

"Because of the views of the state?" I ask.

"Yeah."

"So the final is now at Rio Tinto?" Christen asks.

"Apparently."

"Cool." I say. "We get to play at home."

"Well you're confident." Katie Stengel says.

"You get used to it." Kelley and Christen say in unison.

"So how was the media stuff?" Amy asks.

"So annoying." I groan. "Everyone kept asking about the tweet."

"Told you." I hear Kelley say.

"They also asked if I was faking my illness during the England game."

"Well were you?" Christen teasingly asks.

"I wish I was." I say. "Those IV's sucked...and so did throwing up so many times."

"Here ya go." Amy says and hands me 2 hotdogs and a soda.

"Um thank you?" I say.

"Token of our appreciation." Amy says and gestures between her and her husband.

"For?" I ask.

"Protecting Luke." Amy's husband says.

"Oh...No problem, but how did you..." I say.

"I asked Tobin." Amy says as Luke climbs into her lap.

"Oh."

While Luke sits on his Mom's lap he starts tracing the tiger tattoo on my lower right arm.

"Do you like Tigers?" I ask.

"I like all animals." The little boy says.

"Me too."

"Is that permeant?" Luke curiously asks.

"It is." I say.

"Did it hurt?"

"Not really."

"Why a Tiger?" Luke asks causing Kelley, Christen, Becky, and A-Rod to look at me.

"I just like tiger's." I say and tell a bit of a white lie.

"Squirrel?" The young boy questions.

"That one's for my sister."

"Oh." Luke says and giggles then he looks at my twin. "Squirrel."

"Don't make me get the tickle monster." Kelley playfully teases.

The team and I sit through the rest of the game, which thankfully goes by quick, and when it's over the people who rode with me follow me out to my car.

"I didn't even notice your car was right hand drive." Christen says after all of us get in my red G wagon.

"Yeah I had all my cars shipped over to America." I say.

"Cars?" Becky says. "Like multiple?"

"Yeah I have 3." I say as I pull out of the parking space.

"And they are?" Christen asks.

"Well this Mercedes-Benz G Wagon you're all in right now, a Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Coupe, and a McLaren 570S.

"I haven't seen the latter two." Kelley says.

"There's pictures in my phone." I say as I pull onto the street.

Kelley grabs my phone and unlocks it with her thumb print then goes to the photo app.

"That's the Mercedes." I say

"Woah." Christen says then Kelley scrolls to the next picture

"And that's the McLaren." I say. 

"Where do you put them?" Becky asks.

"I'm renting a house here." I say.

"Astrid?" Kelley says and I hum in response. "Why do you have a tiger tattoo?"

My twins question causes me to sigh, but keep my eyes on the road.

"Traditionally the tiger is said to represent willpower, courage, and personal strength...sometimes we all need a little tiger in us to get by."
