A Price to Pay
Part 3 Chapter 12
My heart sunk as Faith said those words. It was our dream; it had
been our dream for as long as I remember. As long as I could
remember; then it hit me. In the beginning Faith didn't want
to go pro, it wasn't until later that she changed her mind.
But still Faith and I were like two peas in a pod, I hadnt done
anything without her. How could I go to college without her? How
could I accomplish my dreams without her? "How can I leave
you behind?" I whispered. "We'll Skype everyday. I
promise." she replied. "You don't want to move away
from Sarah and I don't want to move away from you." I
said with tears glittering in my eyes. "No. It's already
decided. You're going to college for soccer. I got pregnant
and had Sarah, that was my fate. Your fate is to go pro.
Don't forget that ok?" I nodded numbly, "Well you
have to promise me that you will go to college, at least to
college online. Maybe you could major in being an agent or
something that way you could be my agent when I'm pro."
She smiled, "Of course. And one more thing Amy." I
looked up, "Hmm?" Faith looked down at Sarah,
"Make you're goddaughter proud."
Faith and I walked downstairs together with Sarah in my
arms. When Aunt Liz saw us she smiled, "Amy you have one
heck of a boyfriend. He's been such a sweetheart helping me
cook dinner. He's deffinatly a keeper." I smiled, I am
keeping him, I thought. I walked over to Jeremy and wrapped my
arms around him, "He is the bestboyfriend ever." I
said. Jeremy kissed me on the forehead, "And you're the
best girlfriend ever." Aunt Liz smiled at us, "Ah young
love. You know I married Ryan when I was 18, and we've been
together for 20 years." Jeremy pulled me into him closer,
"That's amazing. You I think we want to share something
with you guys." he said while pressing the ring into my
hand. I gave him a questioning glance but he just nodded his
head. Just then Uncle Ryan walked in the kitchen, he look
confused. "What's happening?" he asked. Faith
shrugged her shoulders, "Dunno, why don't you ask
them." she said while motioning to us. Jeremy smiled and
said, "We weren't going to tell anyone until Saturday
but I think the moments perfect." I nodded my head and said,
"Last night Jeremy proposed to me!" I said while
holding up my left hand. Faith looked shocked, "How come you
didn't tell me!?" Jeremy shrugged his shoulders "We
wanted to keep it a secret for a while."Faith handed Sarah
to Aunt Liz, the walked up and punched him playfully in the arm,
"That's for not telling me," The she hugged him,
"and that's for asking Amy to marry you." Faith
then turned to me, "You're going to married!" she
squealed while flinging her arms around me. "I know!" I
replied equally excited. When she let go I could see Uncle Ryan
shaking Jeremy's hand. Aunt Liz hugged me,
"Congratulations!" she said sincerely. Then see walked
up to Jeremy and gave him a hug, "You picked the right girl,
and she picked the right boy." He smiled and hugged her
back, "I agree." Once everyone had congratulated us
Jeremy said, "Now can you please keep this a secret, just
for a few days." They all nodded in unison, "Of course
we will." Uncle Ryan said. I smiled; life was pretty damn
good right now.
Once Jeremy had left and Faith was putting
Sarah to bed, I idly walked to the kitchen to help Aunt Liz wash
dishes. As I picked up a dish Aunt Liz smiled at me,
"Jeremy's a good boy." I sighed, "Do you think
I made the right choice? I mean I love him but what about
soccer?" Aunt liz looked at me, "Do you think you made
the right decision?" I sighed, I knew I wasn't going to
get a straight answer. "I want to spend the rest of my life
with him, but if we both become professional soccer players we
won't see each other." Aunt Liz went back to washing
dishes, "Do you believe in love?" I was taken aback by
this question, "Yes. I'm in love now..." Aunt Liz
nodded her head and simply said, "Then love will find a way
to keep you two together." I smiled; what Aunt Liz said made
perfect sense. I gently put down my dish and wrapped my arms
around her, "Thank you... For everything, you're like a
second mom to me." Aunt Liz put down her dish and returned
my hug, "And i think of you as my daughter." When I
pulled back I could see that her I eyes were glassy. "Amy
I'm going to miss you so much when you leave." I smiled
weakly, "Me too Aunt Liz, me too."
When I finished washing the dishes I check my
phone. I had one text message from Faith. I quickly read it:
Wanna practice? I looked at the time it was sent. 5 minutes
ago. I rolled my eyes and ran up the stairs. When I opened the door
to our soccer I said, "Lazy much?" she smiled, "I
was supposed to walk down the stairs, call our name, and then walk
back up the stairs? I don't think so." I laughed and
kicked the ball at her, "You know, I don't think I want a
lazy maid of honor..." Faith turned her head and jumped up and
started screaming, "Realy?" I nodded my head, "You
act all surprised."
