Your POV:

Today was the semi finals. It was a repeat of the last Olympics. The USA vs. Canada. Sydney was really calm. Italy is also in the semi finals. If we win and they win too, we'll play them.

I don't know if I'm ready for that.

*on the field*

They were currently announcing our lineup. Canada was already announced.

"Sydney Leroux!" The Canadian fans booed her while the USA fans cheered.

"Y/N L/N!" Everyone booed.

"YOU TRAITOR!" Someone yelled.

I kept my game face on, but looked at the ground.

"Ignore it. I do." Sydney said to me.

I nodded but kept my head down.

They finished up and started the anthems. Then it was game time.

Ally's POV:

"Y/N looks pretty upset." Dinah said. I looked at her. The crowds have been pretty rude to her but today it really seemed to get to her.

"I'll talk to her about it." I said. "I just want to hug her."

"She's too young to deal with all this bullshit." Lauren added.

The game started and the US looked strong right from the start. Y/N had her game face on the whole time. She started to run with the ball and passed it perfectly to Alex who scored the first goal. Alex ran to Y/N and hugged her, while the team ran to them.

*after the game*

No one's POV:

The US ended winning in extra time much like the last Olympics. The girls of Fifth Harmony waited for the team at the stadium. Inside the locker room the team waited for news on the Italy game which started before extra time started.

Italy were winning at the half.

2-0.

Y/N packed up her stuff and put her headphones on before walking to the bus.

Ally's POV:

"Here she comes." Normani said.

"Y/N!" I said. She had her head down with headphones on. I ran over to her and grabbed her hand. She looked up. "Hey. You okay?" I asked softly.

She looked me in the eyes. "No." Her voice cracked at the end. The team came out and they all got on the bus.

Your POV:

On the bus I kept to myself. I knew this would be difficult, but I didn't think it'd be this difficult.

I was really missing my family. I haven't seen them in years and now I'd be playing against the country that I grew up in.

I am a traitor.

Once we were in the rooms, we all gathered in one room as a team.

"Great game today." Abby said. "Y/N that passed to Alex was sick. If we played like we played today in the final." She paused. "The gold is ours."

Everyone cheered.

"You okay?" Ali asked.

"Uh." I looked at her. "No." I said honestly. My phone started to ring. I sighed. "Hello?"

"Y/N!"

"Mom? What's wrong."

"Italy won!" She cheered.

"So did we mom." I said quietly.

"You mean."

"Sì. Stiamo giocando Italia." (Yes. We are playing Italy) I said.

She sighed. "Y/N."

I got up. "What do you want me to do?" I suddenly got angry. "You're the one who pushed me to move here!"

"Y/N calm down. Just breathe. You've worked too hard to throw it all away."

"I should've stayed in Italy." I sighed. "Worked at the restaurant."

"You have a gift. You are a talented soccer player. Keeping you in Italy, at that restaurant would've been a sin. I'm not gonna let you hide that gift." She said. "Now you play like you've been, with your head held high. Show the world what you can do. No matter what country you play for, you are still a good player."

I sighed.

"You're my daughter. And I didn't raise a quitter." She said before hanging up.

I put my head on the wall and closed my eyes.

"I'm going for a walk." I said before leaving.

"Hey! Soccer girl!" I turned around.

"Hi. Normani right?" She nodded. "What's up?"

"Just out walking. Saw you walking as well so thought I'd say hey!" She smiled. "Ally's worried about you." She said.

"I just got a lot on my mind right now." I looked at her. "I have the country of my birth turned against me. Now I have to play them while having a different country on my jersey."

She smiled. "You should talk to Ally. She's always good when it comes to people being upset. Plus during the game she wanted to hug you so she owes you a hug." She laughed.

"Alright. Let's go see Ally." I followed her.
