The Lycan Alpha's Omega

Chapter 29

Sunday 10th of October 2010

Over the last 6 and a half months, Hope and Kelley grew to know each other better since they lived together during the league. However, Hope still does not know about her mate's biological family.

The FC Gold Pride had a very good season, they won the WPS championship game against Philadelphia Independence four-nil, on September 26th. Hope was a starter and Kelley was subbed in the 66th minute.

After the final, the mated couple celebrated with the team before having their own celebration with each other.

The next morning, Hope left San Francisco for Seattle and Kelley for Peachtree City to spend time with their family, before going to camp in two weeks. It meant the omega had the occasion to celebrate Rylie's 5th birthday in person since the pup's 1st birthday. Being home also meant for Kelley to bond with her 7-month-old sister Reece in person instead of over the phone and Skype.

The Rampone-Foudy family and Tobin are currently at Atlanta airport waiting to embark on their flight to Cancun. Their flight is at 11:30 am and it's 10 o'clock, the clan has checked in and went through security. They are getting something to eat at one of the airport shops.

Arriving at their gate, they only have to wait half an hour before boarding. During this time, Tobin plays soccer with Rylie, Julie and Christie chat while doing crosswords, and Kelley is playing with Reece. The omega forward is chasing after her crawling sister. After a while, she picks up her baby sister and carries her to the window to look at the planes taking off and landing. Reece squeals and waves bye-bye each time a plane takes off.

Around 11 o'clock, they embark on their flight. Kelley, Tobin, Rylie, and Reece all sit together with Rylie in the middle seat and Reece on Kelley's lap next to the window. Julie and Christie are seated across the aisle from the kids.

During the flight, Christie and Julie read their books while the four others watch a Disney movie, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Reece will look everywhere, especially out the window out of curiosity since it's her first time on a plane. After lunch, Kelley and Reece fall asleep with the baby's head against her elder sister's chest listening to her heartbeat.

The family lands in Cancun around 2:30 pm. They are the first group to arrive since they are the ones living the closest. They grab their belongings and wait half an hour for Cheney and A-rod since the rest of the team will be landing after 4 pm. Moreover, the driver only has to make one drive to the hotel.

When the group arrives at the hotel, the Royal Solaris Cancun, they checked in with Pia and Dawn before heading to their respective rooms. Amy and Lauren are of course rooming together since they are mates. Christie, Julie, Rylie, and Reece are all staying in one room, away from the other rooms because of the pups so the team won't bother them for bedtime. However, their room is still on the same floor as the rest of the team. Kelley's room is in between Cheney's and A-rod's, and Ashlyn's and Ali's rooms. Finally, Tobin will be rooming with Abby. Her room is across the hallway from her cousin's.

After unpacking, the group of seven decide to relax before the rest of the players arrive. They all head to the mini water park for the pups to play and release some energy built up from the flight. Amy and Lauren choose to walk along the beach before relaxing before sunbathing near the pool. Tobin and Kelley settle on going kayaking in the lagoon while the parents naturally stay at the water park to keep an eye on Rylie and Reece.

Kelley and Tobin head down to the beach to retrieve the kayaks. They go on the water and paddle out to sea while talking.

"Hey how is it going with Christen?", the omega asks.
