《The Throne》32

"GIRLS LET'S GO." Gal shouts as we wait by the door of her hotel room in Tokyo.
"COMING." Alma yells as she and her younger sister run towards us.
"Ready." Maya says and looks up at us with a smile.
"Aww." I coo when I see the two little girls wearing their Tobin Heath jersey's. "That's so cute."
"Mommy?" Alma questions as Gal grabs our tickets.
"Yes baby?" Gal says.
"Is Toby coming back to our room tonight?"
"I think after we celebrate their win she will."
Christen and Team USA are playing the Netherlands in the gold medal match of the 2020 Olympics.
"Yay." Alma says as I get a text.
"Cars here." I say.
The four of us leave the hotel room and head down to the lobby then get in the car which takes us to the stadium.
"So how was meeting each other's families?" I ask.
"It was good." Gal says with a smile. "Tobin's family is lovely."
"And how was taking her to Israel?"
"She loved it." Gal says with an even bigger smile. "She said she really likes my family which is good."
"Is she still going to live with you guys during the offseason?" I ask.
"She plans too." Gal says.
"Really?" Maya asks with a smile.
"Mhmm." Gal says.
"YAY." The two girls yell.
"Inside voices girls."
"Sorry."
"It's okay." Gal says and kisses her daughters heads. "So are you ready to go back to Britain?"
"Yes and no."
"Yes and no?" Gal questions.
"Well yes because I miss my family, but no because I don't want to leave Christen." I admit.
"Ah." Gal says as we pull up to the stadium.

The four of us get out of the car and head inside the stadium then we head to the friends and family area.
"Hey Anna." Channing says.
"Hey Channing." I say and hug her then I hug Tyler "Hi Tyler."
"Hey Anna." Tyler says then I feel someone pull on my pants so I look down.
"Yes Maya?" I question.
"We can't see Toby." Maya says while pouting.
"Okay princess." I say then lift Maya and Alma up so they're resting on my hip.
I then point out Tobin.
"There she is." I say.
"TOBY." Maya shouts as Tobin walks towards the dressing room.
Tobin stops walking and looks up towards us which causes the Gadot girls to wave at her. Tobin smiles and waves back then she blows the two little girls a kiss before she heads into the locker room.
"I'm happy now." Alma says with a smile.
"Good." I say then let the girls down.
Gal and her daughters go to the restroom and get snacks so I sit down and talk to my girlfriend's family.
"Are you glad Christen never played Great Britain." Cody asks.
Luckily Team USA never played Team GB.
"Very." I say which earns a laugh.
"That would've been awkward." Tyler says.
"Way way too awkward."
"Did they win today?" Channing asks.
"Yeah they beat Canada so they won Bronze."
"Well that's good." Cody says as music starts playing.
The two teams come out for the anthems so everyone stands up.
"Made it just in time." Gal says then she hands me a drink.
The anthems play then the teams shake hands so everyone sits down to watch the match.
The first half goes rather quickly and the whole time I could tell Christen was getting frustrated since she was being fouled like crazy and the ref was turning an eye to it.

"Ref better start calling fouls." Tyler says with a huff.
"Seriously." Channing says as I watch my girlfriend walk off the field at halftime with the score 0-0.
Right before Christen gets to the tunnel she looks up at us so I smile at her. Christen smiles back at me then she heads into the tunnel.
During halftime I chat with some of the families around me. A lot of them are interested in my life as a royal which is kinda cool, but kinda annoying since I want to be known for being more than just some royal.
Eventually the two teams return to the field and the second half gets under way.
The US dominates the beginning 40 minutes of the second half and in the 85th minute Alex gets fouled pretty hard in the box which earns the Americans a penalty. Alex has to get checked out on the sideline so Christen steps up to take the penalty.
"Come on Princess." I mumble as I hold Maya and Alma so they can see.
The whole stadium watch as Christen does her run up then the American fans go ballistic when my girlfriend buries her penalty in the back of the net.
Christen and her teammates celebrate then they head back to their side and get ready to park the bus for the last five minutes.
Five long minutes later the whistle blows and everyone starts celebrating the Americans winning the gold medal.
"TOBY." Alma and Maya shouts as Christen and Tobin walk over to Gal and I.
"There's my two princesses." Tobin says with a smile and she kisses the two little girls cheeks then she kisses Gal.
"Congrats My Love." I say with a smile.
"Thanks Baba." Christen says then she pulls me down and passionately kisses me.
"You're still staying with me tonight right?" I question.
"Of course." Christen whispers. "I wouldn't want to celebrate with anyone else."
"CHRISTEN." I hear Tyler yell so I move out of the way.
Christen hugs her family then she and Tobin return to the field to get their medals.
After the medal ceremony, Gal, Gal's kids, and I head to where the team is celebrating then we head inside and Gal and her kids go sit with Tobin's family while I sit with Christen's family. A little while later there is cheering as the first girls walk in to the room. Once Christen gets in the room she looks around until she finds us then she walks over to us.
"Hi Dad." Christen says and hugs her dad.
"I'm so proud of you." Cody says and kisses her head.
Christen hugs her sisters then she hugs and kisses me.
"I love you Princess." I say.
"I love you Baba." Christen says.
The five of us sit down at our table and order food then Christen and her sisters get up.
"We're going to get drinks." Christen says. "Do you want anything?"
"What are you getting?" I ask.
"Maybe a water or some non-alcoholic drink."
"Could you get me a sprite or something like that."
"I will." Christen says with a smile then she pecks my lips.
I watch Christen and her sisters walk away then, once they are a safe distance away, I turn towards Christen's dad.
"Cody?" I question.
"Yes Anna?" Christen's Dad says.
"Can I talk to you about something?"

Queer Tales From A Street Nominally Associated With Your Reality
The street is not from your world, and yet it's attached, clinging like a shadowy limpet to the edge of your London, your city skyline stabbing into it from above. Or well that's what we tell ourselves, no one who lives here really knows. We are after all just regular folk displaced from our original realities. Just a bunch of folks with queer tales from a street nominally associated with your reality. What to expect: - A series of interlinked short stories gradually unpacking the lives, complications and mysteries associated with those who live in the street - A weird pseudo-British setting where physics works inconsistently, and houses move position regularly - Stories filled with LGBTQ+ characters, and in particular ones on the trans/nonbinary spectrum - Potentially iffy grammar, I'm new to publishing my work online, so whilst I am checking things before posting it’s a near certainty that some things will slip through - A schedule of one chapter every two weeks.
