Extended Summary: Julia Faith is just a regular girl who has no idea who her parents are…she's a foster kid living in the USA helping out with Team USA in the Good Will Games. But when the game with Iceland comes up she sees more than just big guys she sees herself.
Hey I hope you like my new story… It's better than it sounds.
I was gazing at the half ripped picture in my hand. It was of my family, my real family.
The picture was ripped in half so there were only two people in the picture but I treasured it with my life.
"Julia sweetie are you almost all packed?" Mom called up the stairs.
"Yeah Mom" Okay so she wasn't really my real mom, but she's closer to one than I'll ever have. Hi my name is Julia and I'm a foster kid. I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota with a passion for hockey. I never tried playing it but I always loved to watch it. So that's what drove me to volunteer at The Junior good will games. I'm 14 and I am going to the Junior Goodwill Games this year. Well actually tomorrow.
"Hey Jules! You almost ready? Banksie and I are waiting" Called my "oh so cocky best friend" Charlie Conway.
"Yeah…Yeah Hold your horses" I called back
"Common we're going to be late!" Whined Adam
I walked down the stairs and jumped on Adams back
"you know I really do hate it when you whine" I said jumping off his back
"Yeah well I really do hate it when you jump on my back un expectedly but that doesn't sound like it's stopping soon." He said
"You're right! It won't be stopping anytime soon so get used to it" I said
"So Jules are you excited about coming with us as our official documenter" Charlie asked
"Yeah definitely , it's going to be so much fun" I replied
"Especially since we can prank coach Bombay" I said with a mischievous glint in my eye looking at Adam.
"Okay that's not fair! You guys blamed the last one on me and that one was pretty bad" He said referring to the Pumpkin Incident
"Okay shhhhhhhh!" I hissed at everyone.
"Okay Averman Pipe down! Don't make me come over there!"
"Hurry up he's gonna be here soon"
"Okay all done?"
"Okay lets go!" We all left Bombays' apartment and in it we left a nice little surprise.
"Okay who ever decided to put pumpkin in my apartment all over my stuff better say so right now or I will personally forfeit tonight's game." barked Bombay. I was going to raise my hand and tell him it was me when Adam came rushing in late. I guess Bombay thought it was him… Poor guy.
"So where are we going?" I asked coming out of my day dreaming
" I don't know Averman said something about going to the diner to eat or something" Replied Charlie.
"Yeah lets go to the diner I need more dirt on you Charlie." So off we went to the diner Charlie's mom worked at.
"Hey Casey how's it going?" I ask her going into the Diner
"It's going good how are you? Keeping the boys out of trouble I hope" She replied giving me a wink
"Yes mam' " I replied giving her a salute
"How are Jane and Austin?" She ased talking about my foster parents.
"They're doing fine" I said back casually
"So what would you like today?" She asked all of us
"Umm.. Can I have my regular; Cheese burger with fries and a strawberry milk shake?" I asked
"Same with us mom only chocolate milkshakes please" Charlie said
"Okay coming right up" She said and went into the back room
"So are you guys pumped about going to the Games this year?" I asked them
"Oh yeah definitely it's going to be a lot of fun!"
We finished our meals paid and left
"So where to now?" I asked
"WellMy parents are throwingme a party so I guess we should go there considering the rest of the team is going to be there" Said Adam
"Okay well let me go home and change and I'll be over at your house Charlie"
"Okay good stuff I'll see you at the party" YelledAdam as they walked away
"Bye guys!" I yelled and walked into my house
Okay so there it is... Please R&R
