《Seeing Double》30

"Hey." Christen and I say in unison making us laugh.
"Hey Twitter." Christen says.
"Sup." I say and wrap my arm around the shoulders of the brunette.
"In a couple hours we have a flight to Atlanta for the Victory tour games, but right now we're doing a q&a for the US Women's National Team Twitter so get your questions in." Christen says.
We wait a couple minutes then I look at the computer.
"Favorite footballing memory?" I read out.
"Well mine's winning the World Cup...twice." Christen says with a smirk.
"Show off." I mumble.
"And what is yours Astrid?" Christen teasingly asks.
"Uh I have two." I say.
"Okay."
"Well my first one is winning the UEFA Women's Champions League twice and then my last match for Wolfsburg was super special and something I'll never forget."
"Not even gonna mention the World Cup?"
"I mean I always knew we'd win and the last two games kinda sucked for me since I was sick one game then hurt the next."
"Yeah." Christen says then she looks at the phone. "For people saying Astrid was faking being sick you should've seen how much she got sick and how many bags of IV fluid she needed."
"Yeah. That sucked" I say then look at the computer screen and laugh. "Look at this."
I point to a question that Kelley left in the chat.
"Of course she would." Christen says with a giggle. "Astrid's twin asks if we are excited for Kelley's wedding."
"Yes Kelley we are excited for the wedding." I say. "Even if I have to wear a dress."
"Are you going to cover your tattoo's?" Christen asks.
"Kelley says I don't have too." I say as the forward looks at the computer screen.

"Astrid who has the better girlfriend? Kelley or Christen?" Christen reads off then she looks at me
"I plead the fifth."
I then look at the computer and find a question
"Favorite stadium you've played at." I read off then look back at my best friend.
"Um in the NWSL it's Rio Tinto and then internationally probably the Stadium in Paris." Christen says then she looks at me.
"Um I've only really been to like five stadiums in the NWSL so I'll say Rio Tinto. In Germany it would be the two Wolfsburg stadiums, the AOK-Stadion and the Volkswagen Arena. And internationally Parc des Princes."
My best friend nods then she looks at the screen.
"Astrid are you going to change numbers for club and country next season?" Christen reads.
"Um I'll have to talk to Abby and see what she wants to do for Utah and then I have the least amount of caps out of the keepers so they pick their numbers first so we'll see." I say.
I then look for a question.
"What would you two be doing if you didn't play football?" I read out.
"I have no clue." Christen says. "Maybe something in the fashion industry or broadcasting maybe."
"I'd be doing what I do for my side job which is designing planes."
"Smarty pants." Christen mumbles then she reads out a question. "Advice for soccer parents."
"Not everyone is cut out for football." I say. "Don't force your kid to play football because you want them to be the next Christen Press or Kelley O'Hara. And don't live your dreams through your kids. Nobody likes those kinds of parents. "
Suddenly my alarm goes off so Christen and I sign off of the livestream, grab our stuff, pick up the other two girls, then head to the airport to catch our flight to Atlanta

"ASTRID!" Tobin yelled as she runs into our hotel room with her laptop in her hands. "Baby you have to take this quiz!"
I take the computer from my girlfriend and look at the quiz she's talking about.
"Really Boo Bear?" I question as my girlfriend sits in front of me on the bed. "The Pottermore Sorting Hat quiz?"
"Yes. I have a bet going on with Alex and Kelley."
"And what do you think I am?" I ask as I start the quiz.
"Well..." Tobin says, but I tune out as I take the quiz.
I take the weird quiz and when I get to the end I look at my girl and wait for her to finish her spiel.
"...And that's why I think you're a Ravenclaw."
"Wait what?" I ask.
"Y-you're a Ravenclaw." Tobin hesitantly says.
"Aww Toby." I say and pull my girlfriend into a kiss. "You do know me."
"What?" Tobin asks so I show her the quiz. "I KNEW IT."
Tobin gets off the bed and does a little happy dance which I find cute.
"So what do you win?" I ask.
"They owe me free lunch for a week." Tobin says then she grabs her phone and calls someone.
"Did she take it?" Alex questions.
"She did." Tobin says.
"And?" Kelley asks.
"She's a Ravenclaw."
"That's a lie." My twin says.
"YOU TWO OWE TOBIN LUNCH." I shout.
"Dammit." Alex says.
"Fine we owe you lunch." Kelley says.
"Bye now." I say and hang up.
I take Tobin's phone and Tobin's laptop and put them on the vacant bed. I then pull my girlfriend onto the bed I'm on then I hover above her.
"We don't have to be anywhere until dinner in right?" I ask.
"In 6 hours yeah." Tobin says.
"Good." I say then ghost my lips over Tobin's. "Because we'll be busy for the next 5."

Regarding The Life of A Certain Fallen Noble
.. ...Every paths leads to the same destination... Five Saints, five Kings, seven Sins. One entire plane in agony. ..Chaos must reign... In days long past, several Mage Kings cut a path of destruction everywhere they went. Cruel experimentation, the creation of monstrous creatures, the tearing apart of families and mass genocide...There were few crimes the mad Mage Kings didn't commit. As the Five Saints were summoned in desperation by the races of the world, everything was already at it's darkest hour. When the fighting was over, when the Mage Kings were gone and the Five Saints had returned to their planet of origin, a World Council was erected to keep the the delicate balance from falling apart. Many eras pass. Lyle Greyborne. Current heir to the powerful Greyborne family, the only son of Adarian and Alyssa Greyborne. With the maroon hair of his Greyborne ancestory and the exceedingly rare golden eyes of his mother's Bathory clan, Lyle's talents can only be described as terrifying. These, along with his personal status, make him desired by many. After a young Lyle begins a relationship with one Sophia Alderton, two years pass by. Then a lack of trust coupled with a certain misunderstanding leave the two estranged and left on a sour note. But Lyle even still retains his friendship with Cecelia, Sophia's sister. With Cecelia, his loving sister Iris and Melanie--A young woman who recieved his aid some time ago--Lyle is content to pass the days in peace and idleness. Well, when he's not completing harsh missions from his combat instructor, that is. But this peace is ruined when Lyle's father tells of a mysterious group hell-bent on causing war between the human and demon continents. Later, when his father involves him and his sister in an incident resulting in Iris being put in mortal danger, Lyle makes a decision which could very well cost him not his life... but instead his soul. His status, his loved ones, his dignity as a human being... All these may soon be lost. His life isn't his own. Not anymore. He can only brace himself for the things to come and hope he makes it out with his sanity intact. ******************* EDIT- Author Note: Another thing, the cover photo is not mine. Obviously. It's just a picture I found one day at DeviantArt and thought that the two shown in the picture looked like how I imagined Lyle and another character to be. Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669

City of Roses
Jo Maguire, a highly strung, underemployed telemarketer, meets Ysabel, a princess of unspecified pedigree, and unexpectedly becomes her guardian and caretaker. Now Jo must make a place for herself among Ysabel's decidedly unusual family and friends—which calls for a bit more sword-play than most of us are used to—in a city where sinister high-rise condos are fought by a sprawling tea-house built out of scrap lumber, where ancient sea-gods retire to close-in Southeast apartments with lovely views, where duels take place in supermarkets, and the Devil keeps a morgue in an abandoned big-box store.
