Three days later.
''Well that just went in a direction I didn't expect.'' Amelia breaths out as she follows Brittany through the building to the soccer field, Brittany hums in agreement and laughs.
''I didn't expect it either but it went all into our favor.'' She breaths out shrugging, she smiles as she hears the sounds of her team sprinting around the field and walks over to the dugout knocking on the roof. ''Coach?''
''Phoenix!'' Sue exclaims with a grin as she stands up to hug her, she turns to Amelia and reaches out to shake her hand. ''Nice to see you again Amelia, how was the meeting?''
''Well does your offer of investing still stand?'' Brittany breaths out with a tiny grin.
''She said yes?''
Amelia nods her head and chuckles. ''Yeah she agreed with Britt's plan and that it will indeed expend the team, but it went a bit different as we both imagined.''
''How different?''
''Well Ame and I will be the face of that team.'' Brittany breaths out. ''Nat will still handle all the papers and manage everything behind the scenes but the team will be ours to build up.''
''So like I do?'' Sue asks with an eyebrow raised. ''I though no fifth job Britt.''
''No not exactly like you do.'' Brittany breaths out reasuringly. ''But we will pick the coach, decide who will join the team and pick the technical staff.''
''I will do most of it.'' Amelia adds. ''Brittany is just the second opinion, the team is ours but I told Natalia that I will do most of the things so Britt won't be overwhelmed.''
''And that will go well with your referee jobs?''
''No.'' Amelia breaths out. ''But I chose to be a referee because I still wanted to do something soccer related after nobody drafted me, this is a chance I couldn't ignore because it will allow me to be home more with my wife too instead of traveling around the country to whistle for matches.''
Brittany smiles slightly as Sue glances at her and crouches down to fasten her cleats after slipping into them, she holds up the extra pair she barely wore for Amelia and shoots her a wink. ''Want to join us on the field for a bit? There is still ten minutes of training left.''
''Can I?''Amelia takes the cleats as Sue just nods her head not noticing that it will be a short try out for her to show Sue what she got and sits down beside her to slide into them. ''Thank god for giving us the same size.'' She breaths out laughing as she glances at Brittany.
Brittany just smirks taking off her hoodie and whistles loudly. ''Girls!'' She smiles as everyone on the field turns to them and nods her head to Amelia. ''Would you all mind Amelia joining us for the last minutes?''
''Nope the more the merrier!'' Press calls back, she passes the ball high towards them as soon as they jogged onto the field and smiles as Brittany easily takes it on her chest. ''Pick your side, friendly match to end the training?''
Brittany chuckles and looks at the team noticing the others using the stands to work on their cardio. ''Dragon, Snake, Ame and I against the four of you?''
''Oh you are going down Phoenix.'' Isenhour breaths out laughing, Brittany just smirks picking one side of the field and looks at the three women joining her.
''Who takes what position?''
''I will take the goal.'' Press breaths out before Amelia can pick her position.
''I will defend.'' Emslie replies with a grin. ''The both of you can rush forward, if that is okay with you.'' She adds turning to Amelia, the both of them knowing what Sue and Brittany are planning.
''Yeah that is fine.'' Amelia breaths out, she turns to Brittany as they place the ball in the middle between both goals standing a bit closer than on a normal field and smirks. ''So some old time B and A action?''
''You know it.'' Brittany breaths out as she passes the ball to Amelia, she twirls Vasquez one of the midfielders as she sprints towards her the second Amelia passed the ball to Emslie and sprints forward as Emslie long passes the ball over the sideline.
She lobs the ball over to the goal, grinning as Amelia jumps up heading the ball into the goal before Isenhour reaches it and laughs. ''Looks like you never forgot how to play.'' She breaths out as they jog back to their half high fiving Emslie.
''It's in my blood.'' Amelia breaths out shrugging, she intercepts a weak pass and sprints over the sideline. ''B, cut, twirl!'' She calls out as Emslie also joins them, she locks eyes with Emslie as she lobs the ball over to her and slides her eyes over to Brittany telling her to pass it to her.
Brittany cuts inside sprinting past Vasquez as Emslie passes the ball in her direction and twirls around Hunter feeling the ball hit her heel, she laughs as she hears Isenhour curse in surprise and high fives both girls as they jog over. ''Oh damn that was a move I didn't use for long.''
''Do you have any signature moves?'' Emslie asks turning to Amelia as they once again jog back, she high fives her wife and turns to Brittany as she hears her snicker.
''Scorpion or scissor kick.'' Brittany replies before Amelia can, Press smirks and straightens up.
''Pass the ball to me and sprint forward.'' She tells Amelia with a grin. ''I want to see it.''
Brittany smirks as Amelia shoots her a glare and shrugs. ''I am sure you can still do it, let's try.''
She passes the ball to Emslie as soon as their teammates nodded their heads telling them that they are ready and sprints forward with them after Emslie passed the ball back to Press, she smirks as Press kicks the ball forward to Emslie in a wide arch and nods her head as she notices her glance at her.
She sprints over as she takes the ball on her chest to bump it up and jumps up to head it into the penalty area. ''Oh nice one Ame!'' She cheers with a loud laugh as the scissor kick she performs hits the goalpost with a loud crash, she easily steals the ball from Hunter and back heel passes it to Emslie.
''Nice one Dragon!'' Brittany and Press cheer as Emslie scores with a volley after bumping the ball up, Brittany smiles as Amelia just high fives Emslie with a grin knowing she will fit perfectly into the team as Isenhour, Vasquez, Hunter and Blade jog over to also high five her and turns to Sue.
She smiles as she just nods her head and glances at the time. ''Alright we have to go.'' She breaths out as she joins the team. ''See you all on Saturday girls.'' She breaths out as she hugs them, she walks off of the field with Amelia crouching down to change her shoes again and hugs Sue as she stands up.
''Enjoy the short break and concentrate on the cookout B.'' Sue breaths out as she pulls out of the hug, she smiles as she nods her head silently promising that she will and turns to Amelia to shake her hand. ''It was nice to see you again Amelia, I am sure we will see each other on Saturday.''
''Yeah I am sure about that, I won't miss out on seeing crazy in action.'' Amelia chuckles as Sue laughs while Brittany scoffs and pushes her softly. ''Come on I am starving and I am pretty sure Santana can cook as good as Tori.''
''For sure.'' Brittany breaths out. ''Gotta love the Spanish kitchen.'' She adds as they walk off of the field after waving at the team, she leads her through the building and takes out her phone to send Santana a text.
''How will Santana react on the news?'' Amelia asks curiously as they walk to Brittany's car.
''She already knows.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling, she slides into the drivers seat laughing as Amelia turns to her in surprise and shrugs. ''I used the phone call Natalia received to text her, she told me to take it after I reasured that I won't do shit and only voice my thoughts while you handle everything else.''
''You think I will have a lot to do?''
Brittany shakes her head and smiles slightly. ''Nah after recruiting and calling Evans to ask if she is up to coach them, you won't have anything to do aside from attending to events and visit a match once or twice a month.'' She stops at a red light and shrugs. ''It all depends on your schedule, Natalie will still handle most of it but she just doesn't have the time to attend another championship ceremony or such because aside from running everything she still acts so that will be where you come in.''
''Did I tell you before that I love your spontaneous ideas?'' Amelia asks snickering. ''All of them cause positive things in my life, hell if I had listened to you and stayed one more year, I am quite sure I would have found a team.''
''Maybe but this way you also had the chance to add more to your job experiences, that is always good.'' She breaths out. ''Would you start playing again if you found a team?''
''You think a team would take someone who never had the chance to play the past four years?'' Amelia asks with an eyebrow raised.
''That doesn't answer my question.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''Yes or no Ame?'' She asks as she parks her car in her garage.
Amelia bites her lip as they slide out of the car and slowly nods her head. ''Yeah I would.'' She breaths out as she follows her into the house. ''And Tori knows.'' She adds.
''Babe, we are home!'' Brittany calls out with a grin on her face.
''Kitchen!''
''Britty, Britty!'' Brittany chuckles as Nicolas sprints out of the kitchen before she can lead Amelia into it and catches him as he jumps in her arms.
''Hey sweetie, how was school?''
''So much fun, we went to the beach!'' Nicolas breaths out with a big grin, he turns to Amelia and smiles. ''Hi Amelia.''
''Hey buddy.'' Amelia greets reaching out to ruffle his hair. ''Why didn't you tell me about the beach trip?'' She asks turning to Brittany. ''I could have joined him and didn't have to sit in a hot office with you the whole time, I am sure Nicolas's accompany is more fun.''
Nicolas giggles as Brittany rolls her eyes and nods his head. ''I am more fun than mami and Britty.'' He tells her as Brittany places him down. ''They are both old.'' He stage whispers.
''Heard that!'' Santana calls out, Nicolas burst into a fit of giggles as Brittany tries to grab him and quickly sprints back into the kitchen. ''You really think that was a smart move, mi corazón?'' Santana asks in amusement as he runs straight into her arms, she scoops him up before he can turn on his heels and showers his face with kisses as he struggles in her hold giggling.
''Welcome to the craziness filling one of our houses almost every day.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''Clown Santana and her junior assistant Nicolas always ready to show you that you don't need sport to build muscles.'' She adds snickering.
Santana looks down at Nicolas and shakes her head snickering. ''And she acts like she isn't the biggest clown in our family.''
''No that's Tio Puck.'' Nicolas breaths out giggling. ''But she is a close second.''
''That is what I believe more.'' Amelia breaths out, she laughs as Brittany pushes her and shakes her head hugging Santana as she walks over to greet her. ''Hey Santana.''
''Hey how was the meeting.''
''It went even better as expected.'' Amelia breaths out.
''So I heard.'' Santana breaths out with a grin, she pecks Brittany's lips and grimaces. ''And you trained.''
''Well she found that one out fast.'' Amelia laughs out.
''Sweat.'' Brittany just breaths out chuckling, she kisses Santana's forehead and smiles. ''We will both freshen up.'' She ruffles Nicolas hear and winks. ''And you will join us sweetheart, judging the delicious smell, it's time to wash hands.''
Santana nods her head in agreement and smiles. ''Yeah dinner is ready, I will set the table so we can dig in as soon as the three of you come down.''
''Sounds perfect.'' Brittany murmurs as she kisses her temple. ''We will be right back.'' She turns to Amelia as Nicolas jogs to the stairs and points to the rooms down the hall. ''Pick one room out, both are cleaned and freshly washed.''
She walks up the stairs as Amelia nods her head walking down the hall after thanking her softly and walks into her bedroom after knocking on Nicolas's door. ''Britty!'' She laughs as he just peaks his head out giggling and blows him a kiss.
''Love you sweetheart.'' She smiles as he runs over and leans down to kiss his head. ''Come on let's freshen up in the master bathroom, she picks him up as he nods his head with a big grin and walks into the bathroom with him.
She pulls out the step stool she bought for him and places him on it, she slides behind him as he washes his hand and grabs a towel to wash her face.
''Now you smell better Britty.'' Nicolas giggles as she turns to him with an eyebrow raised and tries to climb off of the stool fast.
''Oh no you won't.'' Brittany breaths out laughing as wraps an arm around her waist, she cups her hand with water and holds it up for him.
''No, no, no.'' Nicolas gasps as she still splashes him and squeals. ''Britty!''
''Oh no.'' Brittany breaths out, she quickly places him down and jogs out of the room with her towel still in hand.
''No running in the house!''
She slows down to a jog as she hears Santana's loud warning from downstairs and looks over her shoulder, she laughs as Nicolas also slows down immediately and jogs down the stairs.
She slides into the kitchen on her socks and shoots her girlfriend a wink as she looks up from her conversation with Amelia, Santana laughs as she watches her son slide in right after Brittany and shakes her head. ''Did he tease you again?'' She asks in amusement as she notices her sons wet face.
''He told me that I smell good again after washing my face.''
''It's the truth!'' Nicolas giggles out. ''You always smell after soccer and lying is bad so I am honest.''
Santana breaths out a laugh as Brittany plops down on one of the chairs with a pout and turns to Amelia. ''See the biggest clown in this house now.'' She ruffles her sons hair as he giggles and winks. ''Sit down mi corazón, time for dinner.'' She turns to Brittany and blows her a kiss. ''You too mi amor, stop pouting.''
Brittany huffs as Nicolas giggles and shoots Amelia a soft glare as she snickers. ''Be quiet Ame.'' She turns to Nicolas as she just laughs and ruffles his hair. ''What do you want to drink sweetie?''
''I will grab it babe, just stay seated.'' Santana tells her as she places the paella she made on the table, she pecks her lips and smiles. ''Wine or beer?''
''Wine.'' Brittany breaths out. ''The one in the door.''
Santana nods her head opening the cupboard and grabs the bottle, she grabs the homemade lemonade Brittany always prepares for Nic and fills a glass for him. ''Dig in.'' She breaths out after handing everyone their glasses, she sits down beside Brittany and smiles as she immediately intertwines their hands and thanks her softly as she hands her a plate she just filled for her.
Three hours later.
Brittany jogs down the stairs after tucking Nic in and walks into the living room, she gently slaps the back of Amelia's head as she walks past her and drops back down beside Santana with a soft laugh as she shoots her a glare. ''So talk?''
''About?'' Amelia asks with an eyebrow raised, Brittany takes a sip of her wine, wrapping her arm around Santana as she cuddles into her side and locks eyes with Amelia.
''How would you feel joining the second division?''
''As in playing soccer?''
''No as in bringing every fucking ball I kick beside the goal.'' Brittany rolls her eyes and sighs. ''Of course to play, you idiot.''
''For?''
''Oh damn being a referee really fucked up your brain.'' Brittany breaths out rubbing her forehead.
''Ame.'' She sighs out as Santana giggles. ''I would love to play soccer with you again and today was just a short try out, you will have a longer one, but Sue, Press and Emslie gave me the go to recruit you.''
''Are you serious?''
She nods her head smiling as she just looks at her with wide eyes and chuckles. ''I am, so what do you say?'' She asks with a grin. ''You up to recreate our magic on the field again and show the people some old time Britt and Ame action?''
''Well fuck, Tori won.'' Amelia breaths out running a hand down her face. ''Fuck yes, I would love to join B.''
''She knew?'' Santana asks chuckling.
Amelia nods her head and laughs. ''Yeah she told me that Britt would talk to Sue, but I didn't want to believe her.'' She turns to Brittany and bites her lip. ''I don't want you to risk your position or name though, I didn't play for years B.''
''You will start with training for two or three months.'' Brittany breaths out. ''As soon as you are fit enough we will use a formation, no soccer team before used.''
''Which one?''
''4-2-4.'' Brittany nods her head as her eyebrows raise in surprise and chuckles. ''Four forwards, two midfield, four defenders.'' She tells her. ''You and Emslie will cover the sidelines and Press and I will take the middle but you know us, we will take whatever position and don't care who scores it's just good to have an option.''
She yelps as Amelia just stands up, rushing over in a flash to hug her tightly and laughs as Santana grunts. ''Damn Ame, don't kill us.''
''You don't even know how fucking happy you just made me today B.'' Amelia breaths out as she pulls back. ''Not only will I run a team with you but I will also play soccer again together with you.''
Brittany just smiles and kisses her temple. ''You know I absolutely loved playing with you during college Ame, do you really think I wouldn't try to convince Sue to recruit you after you told me that you had to start referee training to still do something soccer related?''
''I just didn't know if you would move to LA, but that problem is solved now that you and Tori will move to LA.''
''The both of you want to hear more amazing news?'' Santana asks glancing between Amelia and Brittany as Amelia sits back down on the other couch, she chuckles as they just turn to her and smirks. ''You wanna tell them?''
''Who are you talking to babe?'' Brittany asks in confusion as she notices Amelia also look at Santana in confusion.
''Normal people would look around, you know?''
''Babe!'' Tori laughs stumbling back as her wife practically jumps over the back of the couch to tackle her in a hug and kisses her temple. ''Hey mi amor.''
''What are you doing here?!''
Tori smiles leaning down to hug Brittany and sits down beside her wife. ''Well we just moved here completely.''
Amelia frowns in confusion and shakes her head. ''We still need to move god knows how many things babe.''
''We just moved here completely.'' Tori repeats with a slight grin, She nods her head to Santana and snickers. ''Thanks to Santana calling in some reinforcement and Puck offering to help, the last truck arrived around this morning.''
''Are you serious?''
''You ask that quite often today.'' Santana muses as Amelia turns to her in surprise, she nods her head as she just raises an eyebrow and chuckles. ''Yeah I called in a few old high school friends and asked them to help Tori with packing, why would you fly back on Sunday to continue packing if you could stay here and start unpacking?''
Tori kisses Amelia's shoulder and smiles. ''I booked the first flight leaving New York this morning after receiving the call from the driver that he arrived, Santana greeted them here and made sure they carefully placed everything into the house.''
''So we are officially living here now?'' Amelia breaths out with a grin, Tori nods her head and pecks her lips.
''We sure are, which means that you can call Sue and tell her that you will take her offer.''
Brittany snickers as Amelia grunts as she throws her phone in her lap right after and winks. ''Speed dial number five.'' She just tells her. ''She is still awake.'' She watches her stand up to walk to the kitchen to talk to Sue in peace and turns to Tori. ''You mostly record movies from here right?''
She raises an eyebrow as Tori hums and frowns. ''How the hell did you manage that?''
''My parents live here, I stayed with them during the time I had to be on set and Ames flew down whenever she didn't have to work.'' Tori explains, she hums as Brittany frowns and sighs. ''Yeah that we didn't see each other a lot.''
''Being a referee really sucks, you have to travel to god knows what city to work for ninety plus minutes and fly back home the next day or the same day.''
''Yeah but she will be more home now.'' Tori breaths out with a grin. ''I can't thank you enough for offering her to live her dream B.''
Brittany shakes her head and smiles. ''No need to thank me, it's for my fun too.'' She breaths out chuckling. ''I always loved playing with Ames on the field and I think it will be pretty amazing to play with her, Chris and Claire.''
''As soon as Ames has her rhythm back, the four of you will kick ass.'' Santana breaths out chuckling. ''It will be hard to stop any of you.''
''They will definitely be fucked if they piss us off.'' Amelia agrees chuckling. ''I saw the footage of the three of you trying to grab a player after a foul on Claire, you know your rage fuels mine B.''
''It fuels yours, Chris's, Claire's, San's, Puck's, Liv's and of so many more.'' Brittany breaths out laughing. ''If it wasn't for Santana's parents holding her back and Nicolas also being there, San would have ran out on the field to kick her ass.''
''I have no idea what you are talking about.'' Santana murmurs chuckling.
''Right and the footage of you screaming fuck yeah after Brittany scored with a free kick after that nasty tackle on her a few weeks ago?'' Tori asks snickering. ''That went viral San.''
Brittany laughs and kisses Santana's shoulder. ''It's still one of the few recordings your fans share babe.''
''Our fans.'' Santana corrects chuckling. ''Those are the fans that also try to watch every single match and visit the most of them.''
''The both of you are definitely loved by many.'' Amelia breaths out. ''I think you are the first lesbian couple everyone adores.''
''Yeah you have a few haters but your fans easily shut them down.'' Tori agrees. ''How the hell did you manage to do that?''
''We didn't do anything.'' Santana breaths out chuckling. ''Everyone just fell in love with Britt being herself, she is still down to earth and doesn't try to jump in the spotlight because I am famous.''
''She is famous herself just in a different world.'' She adds snickering. ''Whenever we are out and see a few fans, we mingle with them but they also understand that we need some us time and won't walk over whenever we are out with Nic or out on a date and they accept that.''
''Was it a huge change for you?'' Amelia asks curiously as she turns to Brittany.
Brittany shakes her head and smiles slightly. ''Not really, sure it was weird to hear people yell my name too but I quickly got used to that, the only thing that annoys me are the black SUV's following me wherever I go but I manage to get rid of them quite quickly.''
She glances at the time and sighs. ''I hate to cut our conversation short though, but I still need to mix a few songs for my last day at Avalon.'' She breaths out. ''I don't want to work on it the whole night, so I will start now and hope to finish before midnight.''
''That's alright, I will kidnap Ames and go home so we can start unpacking too.'' Tori breaths out with a grin.
''I need to go over a few lines.'' Santana breaths out chuckling. ''See you Saturday?'' She asks as they all stand up, she hugs them as they nod their heads and steps back smiling as Brittany also hugs them and wish them a nice night.
She leads them to the door after telling her to go work a bit and leans against the doorway as they walk out. ''Enjoy your first night in LA girls, it will be a bit quieter than in New York.''
''I hope it will.'' Amelia breaths out chuckling. ''See you on Saturday San.''
''See you on Saturday!''
