The following day and they had a good training session in the morning. It was hard work as was the way on England camp but they all enjoyed it.
"What are you doing?" Marie laughed as she watched Maisie try and put her bib on.
"I don't know," she said.
She was in a proper tangle and Marie had to get her unstuck.
"There you are you numpty," the coach laughed when she released her.
"Thanks," she said, now able to join in the drill.
Once they'd had a good session, they headed inside to have lunch before going to do some gym exercises.
As always, Maisie was powering through them thanks to her boxing.
They finished up before moving on to do some schoolwork.
Maisie was as unfocused as ever and Mark was struggling to get her on task. He was super fond of her and any time he tried to get her to stop distracting everyone and work, she made him laugh and distracted him from what he was saying.
Eventually he let everyone else go and kept Maisie, Liv and Samara back.
"Come on you need to do something in these sessions," Mark said.
"I have done something," Maisie said.
"Writing four words doesn't count as something," he said.
"Okay fine I haven't done anything then."
He attempted to give the girls a lecture on why they needed to do work but he was unsuccessful and they just made him laugh instead.
"Bye Mark," Liv said.
"See you next session," Samara followed.
"Bye girls," he said, shaking his head.

That night, all the girls were sat out on the corridor. The hotel was open to the public but the team all had one corridor with their rooms on.
"Guys should we play truth or dare?" Scarlett suggested.
"Yes!" Maisie said. She loved truth or dare.
Eventually they got everyone to play, even those like Erin who were reluctant, and they all sat in a huge group in the middle of the corridor.
They went round in the circle and it was super entertaining.
"Okay then Erin," Maisie said when it got to her girlfriend, "Truth or dare?"
"Truth," she said. No way was she doing a dare.
"What's the most annoying thing about Maisie?" Liv asked.
"Hmm where to start?" Erin joked, making them all laugh. She then sat and thought about it; she really had nothing. Sure Maisie had lots of quirky little habits but she loved that about her.
"I dunno," she said.
"Come on. There's got to be something," Samara said, "Like she actually never stops talking."
"Neither do you," Erin pointed out to which they all began to laugh, especially Maisie.
"What about the fact she burps like 24/7?" Zara suggested.
"Oh yeah or what about how she always says stuff really loudly about people when they're stood right there," Liv said.
"Right guys I feel like you're just using this as an excuse to bully me," Maisie said.
