Keegan's POV

"Alright Jules." I say as I finish setting up. "I'm ready for you."

"Sweet." Julie says then she sits down on the barstool.

Once Julie is on the barstool I put the salon cape around her then grab my tools.

"Found it." Abby says then she puts a beach volleyball match on the projection screen in our team chill room.

We're in London for a pre-World Cup training camp and today is our off day so we're chilling and watching my sisters play in the final of a FIVB 4-star tournament.

"Sweet." I say as I start combing Julie's hair. "The usual Jules?"

"Yes Please." Julie says as she watches her wife warm up for the championship match.

My sisters are playing a Brazilian Duo.

"You know this is the first time I think I've ever seen women's beach volleyball players not wearing a bikini." Kelley says.

When Sofija and Aurora are competing they wear a sports bra and shorts that stop mid thigh.

"I mean they can't really where a bikini bottom." I say as I start cutting Julie's hair.

"No they can not." Abby says.

"What event is this?" Tobin asks.

"The Ostrava Open." Julie says.

"It's their last event before they come watch the World Cup." Abby says.

"Are they missing the World Championships?" I question.

"No." Julie says. "There was some issues with the venue so they pushed it back and it'll start the Thursday after the World Cup final."

"Sweet."

"Wait hold up." Moe says.

The whole team is watching my sisters' match.

"Since when have you cut hair?" Moe asks.

"Since I was 10." I say. "My sisters only let me cut their hair so I taught myself and I've been doing it for the past 18 years."

"Can you cut my hair?" Ash asks.

"Well there's a few people in front of you, but sure." I say.

"Who?"

"Tobin and Christen." I say.

"Actually I'm good Keegan." Tobin says. "I got it cut before we came."

"If you need a touch up while we're together then you know where to find me."

"You cut your sister in-laws' hair?" Sam asks.

"Mhmm." I say. "I have since they started dating my sisters."

"Did Abby get her hair cut today?" Crystal asks.

"I cut it before Julie's." I say.

"What about Tobin and Christen?" Kelley asks. "When did you start cutting their hair?"

"I started cutting Christen's hair in high school." I say. "And I started cutting Tobin's hair when she played for PSG."

"Chris did you and Tobin visit Keegan a lot?" Ali asks.

"We visit every off season." Christen says.

"France is very beautiful in the winter." Tobin says.

"Yes it is." I say as I focus on making sure Julie's hair is just right.

"Hey Keegs which one of your sisters designed your tattoo's?" Ash asks.
