Filip’s POV- June 2014
Emma was pretty open about her life, but she failed to mention one tiny thing. She failed to mention that she was an Olympic medalist….a 6 time medalist. My brother had seen a picture of her and he said he recognized her. When he typed her name a picture of her in a suimsuit came out. I never brought it up to her, but I was curious to know why she never told me. It’s not like she hid it as well, her instagram said she was an Olympic medalist. I didn’t follow her on instagram though; most pictures of her summer were there.
She retired right after competing in London because she had hip surgery. Her family was extremely well recognized when it came to sports. She was a former competitive swimmer. Her oldest sister and one of her cousins played soccer for the US National Team. Her other sister was a retired BMX cyclist; one of her cousins was a retired Volleyball player; her two youger brothers along with her two cousins were divers; and Max was a BMX cyclist.
“Hey”
I smiled when I saw Emma on the screen.
“Hey yourself” I said.
She moved a bit and I noticed she was outside.
“What are you doing?” I asked her.
“Playing fetch with Winnie”
The screen flipped and I saw a Beagle.
“Hey boy, say hi to Filip”
He barked and ran away with the ball.
“Well then”
I smiled when the screen flipped back to her.
“So my brother googled you” I said.
She looked at me and cocked her head to the side.
“Why did your brother google me?”
“He said he recognized your face” I said.
“Ohhhh”
I nodded and smiled.
“You never mentioned you used to swim” I said.
She shrugged.
“I used to swim breaststroke, I retired though to have hip surgery. I could have gone back to swim, but I wanted to focus on just school”
I nodded, now I felt bad.
“How’s Max?” I asked her.
She smiled.
“Pouty, he’ll live though”
Max was in a motorcycle accident. He came out alive and well, except his foot. She walked inside her house and she began walking up the stairs.
“That’s good” I said making her nod.
She opened a door and smiled at someone.
“Is it guy?”
The phone was snatched from her and a blonde that was not Emma appeared on the screen.
“Hi! I’m Amelia, Emma’s sister”
I smiled.
“Nice to meet you” I told her.
She smiled and frowned at her sister. She and her sister looked alike, same eye shape and nose.
“Fine”
Emma was back on the screen and she yelped when her sister hit her.
“Bitch!”
A cackle was heard as she closed the door.
“Sorry, my sister might be small but she’s something”
I laughed.
“Is all your family home?” I asked.
“Uh no, Amelia goes back to Denver tomorrow. Liv is in Dallas, but she’ll be here for my birthday. My brothers are at practice”
I nodded and smiled.
“What are you doing for your birthday?” I asked her.
“BBQ with the family and some nice firework seeing at the end of the day”
I nodded; she was born the Fourth of July.
“I would invite you but you’ll be in Nashville”
I nodded.
“Yea, I leave in a few days. My phone isn’t going to have service though, so I’ll text you” I told her.
“Excited?”
I nodded and she smiled. Barking was heard and she smiled.
“Well they’re home”
“I’ll call you when I’m in Nashville then?” I asked.
“I’m not going to hang up on you because people are here. My brothers are going to eat and take a nap”
I nodded and she lied down.
“Hip surgery is painful. Don’t let anyone tell you it’s not. I had to have it on both my hips”
“Does it hurt still?” I asked her.
“No, well yea during cold days”
I nodded.
“How’d you get injured?” I asked her.
“It just piled up, little hits here and there. The doctor told me not to compete but I still did it”
“Have you been in the water since then?” I asked.
“Yea, a bit. Not to much though”
I nodded slowly and she looked up.
“Emma, can you come?”
She nodded.
“Yea, give me a second”
She turned to the screen.
“You’ll call me then?”
I smiled and nodded.
“Yea, I need to figure my phone thing out” I said rubbing my face.
She smiled and nodded.
“Alright, if you don’t it’s fine. I get that you’re a busy guy”
I laughed.
“I’ll figure it out” I promised making her nod.
“Alright, be safe”
I nodded.
“Bye, and sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable” I said.
She smiled.
“You didn’t”
I nodded.
“Good” I said.
She laughed lightly making me smile. I let out a deep breath.
“Gosh, I want to kiss you” I admitted making her smile.
She rubbed her cheeks and I laughed.
“I have to go”
I nodded and she blew a kiss before the screen went black. I was falling for this girl, and I was falling hard.
