I'm currently in a plane because I'm heading to Washington for the olympics. You see I'm an American who lives in Nashville and Washington is in the USA as well, so the flight takes about only 1 hour and 45 minutes. The flight is not really long. Witch is good! I don't have the time to fall asleep like I did last time when it was the 2016 Johannesburg Olympics. One of my teamates filmed me during my beautiful sleep. I was so embarrassed. I think I should stop thinking it's not good to overthink. I'm more excited to go the olympics this year because it's in my own country. Not gonna lie, the 2012 Toronto Olympics and the 2016 Joahnnesburg Olympics were awsome but representing team USA when the olympics is in your country sounds way more exciting.

1 hour and 30 mins later
Me and my teamates just arrived in the olympic village. I had an idea about what it would look like but it's ten times better in real life. Every country has their own hotel. It looks better than I imagined. The olympics are 1 week away. You may ask why we arrived 1 week in advance instead of 2 months? Since the olympics are in our country they decided that we arrived last because we lived closer to Washington. I'm going to pay a visit to my best friend Jessica Smith who is olympian swimmer just like me tonight. She arrived in other plane since they decided that girls and boys don't have the same plane. Which is fine by me, I guess? Their rules not mine. I think I'm going to facetime my family to let them know I arrived in Washington. Well I'm going to go get my room card so I have a little bit of privacy. Today we get to be free since we just arrived in the olympic village but tomorrow I'm definitely rusuming my training since the world is counting on me to win medals since I'm one of the best olympians in the world now. I just arrived in my hotel room that i'll be charing with someone else. My hotel room I'll be staying in is beautiful but I stop admiring the room since I have to facetime my family. I sit on my bed and I tap my mom's number since I know my family are all in my childhood house.
Me: Hi mom, hi dad, hi Ashton, hi Logan and Thalia...
My mom: Hi son! How has it been so far?
Me: It's great. I'm currently in my hotel room. Do you guys want a tour?
Ashton: Yeah that would be cool!
Me: Okay here we go. So this is my bed, the bed in the background is my teamate's bed I guess he will come later. This is the tv, a chair for both and you guys know the rest. Here is the bathroom.
Logan: OMG! It looks even more beautiful than last time! I wish I could be here with you.
Me: Too bad you coudn't become a professional swimmer like me.
Logan: Hey at least I play baseball!
Me: I'm just teasing you. So what do you guys think about the hotel room.
Ashton: It looks neat and cool.
Thalia: Yeah it's cool I guess..
My mom: I love it!
My dad: It's fine I guess.. You better win medals or I'm gonna regret letting you train for the olympics but I'm sure your gonna win plenty.
Me: Yeah I will dad.. wish me good luck!
All of them except me: Good luck!
That's where I stopped the phone call since it was getting tense. I hate when dad tells me that. What is he afraid of? This question can only be answered by him but he will never truthfully answer to this question. I should stop thinking about that. I should focus on meeting my friend.

Later after dinner
I'm going to go meet my friend in the lobby for the olympians. It's currently 7 pm. I walk towards the lobby just to see if she is already waiting. I greet her and we hug. I haven't seen her for a couple of months since she lives in Seattle and I live in Nashville. We have been busy to train for the olympics.
Jessica: It's so good to see you again. I missed you.
Me: I missed you too. Let's sit here and chat.
Jessica: Okay sounds good to me.
Jessica Smith has 3 medals under her belt. It's less than me but I don't care. I like her for who she is not about how many medals she has won. She is very talented and I'm so lucky to have her as a friend. We chatted for awhile so when we were done chating it was time to head to our rooms since we had a curfew. I can't wait to rusume training tommorow since it's one of my favorite things to do.

Next day
Today it's an other day. There's only 6 days to go till the olympics are gonna start. Today I received the news that I'm going to hold the flag for the team USA for the opening ceremeny. I'm proud they decided to chose me. I woke up at 6 am in the morning, I did my things and headed to the eating hall at 6:30 am. At 7 am, me and my training coach left to go training. We arrived less than 10 minutes later. I trained until 11 am and I got a resting break till 11:30 am. I ate lunch at 11:30 am till noon. I had my resting ( naping time) till 2 pm just to go training again till 5 pm. I had my break time for 1 hour and I went to the dinning hall to eat diner. After eating we had time to chat and do what we want (sort of). I took time to facetime my girlfriend and chat with my friend Jessica. Then it was time to head to our room. I fell asleep shortly after that. That's my routine I pretty much do every day on and off. Pretty boring? Yeah but not for me. I'm used to it.

6 days later (ceremony day)
Today is the day the ceremony is to take place. I'm excited for the opportunity to hold the USA flag at the opening ceremony. I will probably cherish the moment forever.
Two olympians competing for medals meet at the Washington Olympics and fall in love. This is the story of American olympian Enzo Buckley and Spanish olympian Enrique Martinez. Almost 25 years old Enzo Buckley is making his third appearance in the Olympics for swimming. He has the perfect life, a high class family, popularity and so on. He is dating actress Nevaeh Steward.
On the other hand, 23 years old Enrique Martinez is making his first olympics appearance after not qualifying for the 2016 Johannesburg Olympics for swimming. Not qualifying for the Olympics detroyed his mental health but after years of his supportive parents encouraging him to try again, he listened to his parents and got qualified.
What happens when they meet and both fell in love with each other when no other olympian has never publicly came out to the world? Follow the ups and downs of our two olympians love story.
