Ali Krieger is my mom

Chapter 3 - Meeting the team

Previously one Ali Krieger is my mom.
Welcome to the tur team AJ

AJ POV

I've just graduated from high school with honours so that means in 2 weeks time I will be travelling to Spain for the first USWNT camp. I'm so excited. Maya has brought me all new stuff.
I've been quite sad as Ali hasn't even tried to contact me. The whole team requested to follow me on Instagram except Ali so I'm pretty mad at her at the moment. I'm sitting on my bed when my phone pings.
*Phone Pings*

I smile at how good they look together thinking wow that's my mom and future Stepmom. I turn off my phone and go back to sleep.

----------Time skip------ 13th of May.

It's 5am and I have just said goodbye to all the girls. I tell them I love them and that they can watch me on TV on Saturday the 22nd.

I get into the car with Maya and Maddie. We head to the airport.
In the car we chat away until my phone pings twice
*Phone pings*
A text from Maddie ..... Werid
And a notification from Instagram.
I check Instagram first and see that I have a new follow request. I click on and it and am shocked that it's my mom Ali Krieger requested to follow me. I don't know what to do. I thought she wasn't aloud contact with me so I pressed declined (Harsh ik). Then I look at Maddie Text.

Text Conversation
Maddie - M
AJ  - A

M - I'm going to miss you sm X
A - Me to but why are you texting me this I'm right Infront of you. X
M - Idk X
A - Don't tell the girls but imma miss you the most when I'm gone X
M - Yay

When arrive at the airport. I check my bags in and get my ticket printed out. Maya tells me everything over and over again forgetting that I will have a air hostess with me the whole to till I reach Spain.

AJ - I love you Maya
Maya - I love you to. Show them what you got.
*I hug her*
Maya - Maddie I'll be in the car can you come back when he is gone.
Maddie - yea sure.

Maya leaves. Maddie starts tearing up.

A - Maddie what's wrong.
M - I'm going to miss you - your my bff and sister for 17 years.
A - I'll be back -
M - what if Ali adopts you.
A - I'll still come back.
My name gets called to come to the desk. I hug Maddie and kiss her on cheek.
A - love u
M - Love u to.

I go to the front desk and lady in her 30ish comes and meets me.

U - I'm Layla and I'm be looking after you today miss Rhodes
A - Thanks and you can call me AJ.
L - Ok AJ since you are checked in you can board early since you are also in First Class.
A - ok thank you.

I follow Layla to the plane and sit in a seat in first class at the front of the plane.

I decide to post something on Instagram.

*Insert picture*
AJRhody - In bound to Madrid. Plus got bumbed up to First class and since I'm a minor I in the plane before everyone else. See you soon LAX and then Spain. ⚽❤️

A few of the girls comment on my post:

Ashlyn Harris - Hurry up and get here. I want a hug from you also next time I'm flying with you.

*The Plane ride*

I finally arrive in Madrid at 2am. I hop off the plane. When I hop off the plane I see Jill and run straight towards her.

I turn off my phone and we pull into the hotel carpark. We are staying in a 5start hotel.

I get out and head to lobby. Jill says the girls are waiting up in the conference room on floor 12.

We head to the elevator and press 12.

Another Chapter done.
