"Where!? Where Ace!? You have like four precent body fat! Where does cellulite have space to form on you body!?" Odell frowned and pressed his lips together, c*****g his head forward.
"That's like physically impossible! Every woman has cellulite ODELL!" Massy yelled back at him and leaning forward.
"Spell cellulite!" He tested her. Neither of them breaking their serious facial expression.
Massy stood up straight and paused for a moment. "Cellulite... C E L L U... L I T E. Cellulite... U-LITE... U LIT... CELL YOU LIT... YOOUU LIIIIIT!!!" Massy's excitement caused Odell to crack.
"Bruh! WHHAAAAT!?" He said trying to keep from laughing. Odell shook his head as he leaned against the counter as he and Massy waited for her 2016 BMW Wagon to be brought out from being detailed. His gray Yeezy sweater hung from his body as if he was a coat rack, he watched Massy's fingers eagerly type at the surface of her phone laughing to herself. "Seriously Ace?" He asked her with a stale face looking down at his phone reading her tweet.
"What!?... I'm not a fan of your judgmental negativity." Massy looked back down at her phone as retweets rolled in. "I'm proud of my discovery! Jealous cuz you didn't think of it first!" She rolled her eyes.
Odell matched her eye roll with the smack of his lips. "You going to Vegas for this?" He asked while looking down at his phone.
"For what!?" Massy asked looking up at him. Odell turned his phone so she could see the pulled up tweet. She scanned it without hesitation.
"Yea. I got thee umm, The Kid and The Fighter podcast to do, theeeen.... Who do we play!?" She paused for a moment. She looked up at the ceiling trying to remember her teams next opponent. Odell arched a thick eyebrow as he waited patiently for her memory to kick in. "... South Africa. Then I come back here... But remember I'm going back to Vegas to meet up with Jordan to catch D. Russell play in some Summer League games." Massy pointed her index finger at Odell as she verified her busy schedule. He closed his eyes and nodded, signaling for her to proceed, he remained unbothered with Massy and Jordan's friendship because their was nothing more than just that. Once Jordan saw how far Massy was up Odell's ass he lost what little interest he had when he first met her and started seeing her as an annoying best friend who's nerves he could get on, on a regular. Not to mention Massy showed no physically attraction to him. He and Odell had their own mutual friendship, their close connection with their own mutual friend, rapper and entertainer Drake. Jordan had participated in OVO Bounce for three straight years, an annual Basketball game held every year during OVO Fest, and of course Odell's close friendship with Drake. But neither men feeling threatened by the others relationship with Massy. "Then back to Cali for the Espy Awards, then the next day is The Kids Sports Choice Awards?... Or is it the The Kids Choice Sports Awards?... Sports Choice... Choice Sports? Choice?... " Massy stopped talking and frowned getting frustrated with herself.
"That doesn't even make sense. Kids Sports Choice Awards. It's The Kids Choice Sports Awards!" Odell argued back at her smiling and frowning at the same. "How you going to an awards show but don't know the name of it!?"
"I do know the name of it! I just had the words in the wrong order! Shut up!" Massy hissed back. She leaned against his chest as he leaned back on one of the tall counters. His hands naturally went to her hips and held them.
"Oh I didn't know you was so busy. You know I'm just about to go over to Germany and London." Odell said turning his nose up at Massy. When it came to the two of them it just wasn't their jobs as athletes to battle other teams. When it came to the two of them any and everything could be turned into a battle.
Massy placed her hand on her chest and c****d her head back opening her mouth in surprise. "Oh! Excuse me! I had no idea you were in such high demand in other countries!" Odell closed his eyes and shrugged his shoulders as if it wasn't a big deal. Massy arched an eyebrow at his cocky nonchalant attitude. "Cuz you know... I've only been traveling to countries like Germany and London since I was thirteen. Winning soccer games back to back... No biggie." Massy added, this time matching his cocky and nonchalant attitude.
Odell frowned eyeing her. He pressed his lips together and was quiet for a moment. Realizing he had no comeback. "See this that bullshit I'm talking bout. Cocky ass..." He pointed his index finger in her face. Massy immediately laughing.
"Get yo finger out my face!" She demanded through her laugh. Trying her best to sound serious and knocking his hand from her view.
"Come here." He tightly gripped the bottom of her chin and pulled her closer to his face, pressing his lips to hers. She had no choice but to comply with him and she had no problem with complying.
Massy eagerly stepped into the large air conditioned building getting away from the Vegas heat. She sat happily between Bryan Callen a well known comedian who was best known for his start as one of the original cast members on the popular sketch comedy series MADtv and former UFC Heavyweight Brendan Schaub. The Fighter and the Kid podcast had charted in multiple countries across the world and gained over three million downloads per month with featured guests like professional skateboarder skater Rob Dyrdek, rapper 50 Cent, and New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski among many others. The duo had quickly become known for their comedic perspectives, not only in the realm of mixed martial arts but on sports in general, but also within pop culture and current events.
"I had no clue you were this gorgeous... I mean I've always known you were pretty, but normally I see the guest before the show, but I didn't see you. Man, I had no clue!"
"If her husband comes in here and kicks your ass. I will not help you! I'll probably help him!" Brendan said pushing the lime green sleeves of his shirt up showing off his large arms. Massy couldn't help but to laugh at both men.
"Thank you." She said with a smile then began laughing.
Bryan took a sip of his coffee. "Wait! You're married!?... Brendan, look at me! Anybody can kick my ass! She can kick my ass. I had no clue you were married... Of course you're married! Look at you!" He insisted putting the white coffee cup back on the table. "Who are you married too!? Is he an athlete!?"
Massy smiled and leaned back in her chair. This was the first time her relationship was brought up full circle like this, although it was on accident, she figured why not answer the question, it was obvious her and Odell were a couple and it was obvious based on the ring on her finger. "He is, he's a wide receiver for the New York Giants."
Bryan frowned trying to remember current players of the football team. "Awww s**t uh football player. I was thinking she's either married to a football player or another soccer player Massy and Brendan smiled as they waited silently for his to catch on. "The Giants... Beckham!?... Holy s**t! Where the hell have I been?"
"Under a rock... Playing with yourself." Brendan answered back before taking a sip of his cup.
"Clearly!... Well her hand was under the table, I couldn't see the ring... I had no idea." Bryan said shaking his head. "Before you got here Brendan was showing me the ESPN Body Issue. Last years cover..."
"Wait hold on, ESPN had to pick between her body and Prince Fielder's out of shape body. Some decisions had to be made!" Brendan said cutting Bryan off.
"Damn, you're like a Jackie of all Trades. A World Cup champion, a record breaker and holder, about to be an Olympian."
Massy closed her eyes and nodded her head. "Yup, we leave August... 1st I believe..."
"Even with everything going on?!" Bryan cut her off unsure.
"Yup. I mean taking the right safety precautions of course. They're trying to get three of our games changed. Because the stadium we're playing in is open and it's surrounded by the rain forest." Massy confirmed.
"Zeka is more dangerous for women than it is for men right?" Brendan asked.
"Yea, because of birth defects, causes problems during pregnancy." Massy added.
"Who do you all play this week?"
"South Africa."
"You all are still undefeated?" Brendan asked as he picked up his cup and took a sip of his drink.
"Yea, we haven't lost since our first game against Canada during the World Cup finals. Still ranked number one team in the world." Massy said with confidence.
"And then on top of that, you play for the Western New York Flash. A league team." Massy nodded her head yes. "When do you have a break? Like do you have a off season?" Bryan asked with a frown.
Massy leaned back in her chair and looked at the ceiling. "Uuuhh no, I don't actually. The NWSL season is like any other season the regular five six months long depending on how far your team goes. Then I play for the National team in between that, and that's all year pretty. But we have long breaks between games because we only have like two three games a month."
"How does one get Kobe The Mamba Bryant as a mentor and older brother." Bryan asked with slight jealousy in his voice.
Massy smiled. "You have to be the shit... And clearly, I'm the shit."
"I was going say that's really the only way. Cause Kobe just doesn't mentor ANYBODY." Bryan added.
"No, he's an amazing guy. He's full of just life lessons, it's amazing. He saw something in me and decided to continue to speak even more greatness into me. He's always got my back. Me and Jordan... Clarkson, he plays for the Lakers too, we were over at Kobe's house and we literally listened to this man tell random ass stories for like six hours... Straight! And we were just in heaven. He's such an amazing storyteller." Massy stopped to take a drink from her cup as Bryan and Brendan gave her their full attention. "I still have those random moments where I'm like oh s**t I'm txting Kobe Bryant or like I just sat in The Mamba's backyard..."
"Just ate his perfectly grilled chicken." Brendan cut in laughing.
"Exactly! Like you have moments. Jordan was telling me he'd sit on the bench sometimes during games while he was taking a break and he'd realize... Dude, I just got an assist from Kobe Bryant. Like you never really get use to being around these legends. Even Odell still has moments were he'll stop and be like... I'm txting Eli Manning. And I'm like... Yea that's kind of a big deal. You know even though you're around these amazing people you never really get use to it! To them they just see themselves as normal people, but to people like me and Jordan. It's Kobe... Like he's immortal... He's like Zeus."
Massy stayed in good spirits as the hour long podcast continued, neither men made it a point to revolve the interview around her high profile relationship with Odell. And when they did bring up his name it was playful. Finally separating herself from just being the girlfriend of Odell Beckham Jr who happens to play professional Soccer. She was now Massy Arias. Professional Soccer player, World Cup champion, recorded holder who also happened to be the fiancé of Odell.
