    It didn’t take long for Thomas to settle into his new house, which was one of the best-looking houses I had seen in the city. I loved that he was very modest so the house wasn’t as huge as I expected it to be: a four-bedroom, three-bath two-story home with a lot of backyard. Still, it was way above my pay grade no matter how homey.    It hadn’t dawned on me how much soccer influenced our lives until the season was over. While Thomas was a local hero, he had missed the cut for the U.S. men’s soccer team but Ryan was selected so he wasn’t around as much. Since Thomas had nothing else to do, he traveled everyw

    I stayed there longer than I expected to, with the two of us simply drinking, talking and laughing. Once the liquor kicked in, it wasn’t hard for me to look at Thomas as a regular person. To be honest, he would’ve been had I never Googled him.    I knew dick about soccer but from what I gathered, Thomas was a goalie on loan– apparently, soccer teams could rent players and the reasons ranged from trying to improve said player to improving the team with said player.

She could hide it no longer and cringed when Sir Emuh made the announcement of the bundle of joy. Lindsay had to inform the Earth team. She was on a call with her father, who smiled. “So, how’s training?” “Tiresome. Praying for a break soon.” “Yeah? Something special coming up?” “Funny you ask that,” Lindsay smirked and lifted from her seat. She didn’t need to look to know Keith gawked at the sight

    “Oh… you’re here… and not looking after the Falls.”      “I only get paid to be a barista and pastry chef. You humans are on your own, tonight.” Zay smiled at the busty woman before returning to her drink. The half-Asian woman smirked and was about to go to the bar until she took in what Zay said.    “Wait. Something’s wrong.”    “Why do you say that?”    “You usually have some smutty comment about my tits and I’ll admit, it’s throwing me off a bit that you’ve said nothing.”    “Oh, sorry. If it makes you feel better, IR

    When things first happened, had I told anyone, they would’ve passed it off as fanfiction: it was that unbelievable! A lot of times, I refused to believe it, myself.    I was never an important person, maybe to my family but that was it. My life was mundane at best. The only exciting thing that ever happened to me was the decision to move to Persimmon Hills. I lucked up and found a job immediately after moving. Nothing glamorous: it was for a cleaning agency.
