Raven's POV

"So is this what she's been working on for the past two months?" Sarah asks as we all sit down in our seats here at David Geffen Hall in NYC.

It's been around two months since Freya's injury.

Her ankle is all good and she has one more week wearing her cast.

In a couple days is the final retirement game and it's Tobin retirement game, but tonight the team is watching Freya sing with the New York Philharmonic.

The show tonight is popular songs put to orchestral music.

Freya is doing this because one of her high school friends is now the principal conductor of the New York Philharmonic.

Freya's friend is conducting the concert like this tonight because he wants young people to see that yes most orchestral music is the old stuff, but you can also play songs from today and the past few years while playing an orchestra instrument.

"No." I say. "This is just a favor for a friend."

"Oh." Sarah says.

"So what's she been doing all this time?" Talia asks.

Freya's stayed at home during the last camp so a lot of the national team haven't seen her since the August/September friendly window.

"Relaxing." I say. "Working some Sentinel stuff."

"So same old, same old." Christen says.

"Mhmm." I say as the lights dim

"How many songs is she singing?" Adelaide asks.

"Three." I whisper as the conductor comes on stage.

Once the conductor is on his little podium thingy, he bows to the orchestra then he turns and talks to the crowd for a minute.

"Our first singer of the night is a friend of mine from my high school days." The conductor dude says. "Please welcome Freya Nightingale."

Once announced my wife walks out.

"Damn." I mumble as I ogle my fine ass wife.

Freya's wearing a dark green suit that shows off her titties and ass.

"Down girl." Christen teases.

"Boo." I whisper.

"The first song I'll be singing tonight is Voilà by Barbara Pravi." Freya says. "I chose to sing this one because it's one of my sisters favorite songs for me to sing to her and it's one of my favorites to sing."

"Aww." I hear Jaelin say then the orchestra start playing

A few seconds later my wifey starts singing.

Écoutez moi
Moi la chanteuse à demi
Parlez de moi
À vos amours, à vos amis
Parler leur de cette fille aux yeux noirs et de son rêve fou
Moi c'que j'veux c'est écrire des histoires qui arrivent jusqu'à vous
C'est tout

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà qui je suis
Me voilà même si mise à nue j'ai peur, oui
Me voilà dans le bruit et dans le silence

Regardez moi, ou du moins ce qu'il en reste
Regardez moi, avant que je me déteste
Quoi vous dire, que les lèvres d'une autre ne vous diront pas
C'est peu de chose mais moi tout ce que j'ai je le dépose là, voilà

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà qui je suis
Me voilà même si mise à nue c'est fini
C'est ma gueule c'est mon cri, me voilà tant pis
Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà juste ici
Moi mon rêve mon envie, comme j'en crève comme j'en ris
Me voilà dans le bruit et dans le silence
