My Unexpected Soulmate ||| Cristiano Ronaldo 🤍

Chapter 3

Today is that day again. It is time for the second leg of Manchester United vs Juventus and I am on a plane at the moment with the squad.

Over the past week and a half, I have been messaging Cristiano non stop and we have become best friends. He messaged me after the game when I sent him the photo and started bragging about the fact that he had won. After that we just got to know each other and now we don't stop texting unless we are busy.

I smile to myself as I remember the time that we hugged in the tunnel and the fact that in about 45 minutes I am going to be able to experience it again.

"What are you smiling about?" Jesse asks from beside me.

"Nothing just happy and excited for the game" I said. It wasn't a complete lie, those things are true.

"Liar your excited to see Ronaldo"

"Ok fine. Yes that's why I'm smiling. But you would be to if you were in my position"

"That's true. I'm not judging by the way, I know how close you are and how much he means to you since you were a fan first"

"Why ask what I was smiling about when you knew anyway?"

"Just wanted to see if you would lie or say it. You went with lie" I just laughed and smiled at him and we went back to listening to the song that was playing in our ears through the earphones that we were sharing.

After another 15 minutes of music and laughter the plane landed in Turin, Italy and we get off and make our way to the Manchester United coach that was waiting for us. We take our seats and start talking as a team about everything and nothing.

"I still can't believe that you are texting The Ronaldo" Scott said.

"Your making it sound like I'm dating him" I said laughing.

"You are aren't you?" Ashley Young asked

"No" I said laughing

"I thought you were" he said looking at me

"Mate he has a girlfriend, who is pregnant" I say and he just looks at me.

Everyone bursts out laughing. Once we calmed down we went back to a normal conversation and just spoke and joked around until we got to the hotel.

The coach pulled up on the side of the road and we all got out and got our bags and went inside. We signed in and went to our rooms. I was sharing with Jesse and Marcus like always. I can't believe that they still let us sleep in the same room since we are always loud, always mess about, and never go to sleep until very late.

We put our bags in the room and Marcus and Jesse flop down on their beds.

"Well boys, I'll see you later. I'm off to meet the guy you both desperately wish you were friends with" I say teasingly as I leave the hotel room. Jesse and Marcus told me the other day that they wish they were friends with him like I am. They are so jealous which means a lot of fun for me.

I walk out of the hotel and see an expensive car parked in front of it. The driver side door opens and Cristiano steps out.

"Hey Alyssa." Said coming round and giving me a huge hug.

"Hiiii!!!!" I almost shouted wrapping my arms around him. We swayed back and forth just happy to be in each other's arms. This may seem dramatic since we saw each other a week and a half ago and we have only just got to know each other but it's true.

"What are we doing then?" I ask when we pulled away.

"Well I would take you to go meet the kids but they are with Georgia at my parents house, so I was thinking food instead" he said as we get into his car.
