It was an August day when I first entered the Bayern München headquarters. I just finished university back in Budapest studying Sport management. I started here as an intern doing all kinds of things that you can do at a football club. Today's schedule was to do a little interview of some sort with Leon Goretzka. I was a bit stressed about it since I had a little crush on him. But I knew he wouldn't like me back. I had short hair, a nose piercing and mostly dressed like a grandma. I entered the building and headed to the filming room. When I opened the door he was already sitting on a chair. I went up to him and shook his hand.

"Hi! I'm Estelle, I'm gonna be the one doing the interview with you."- I said with a smile.

"Leon."- he said and smiled back at me.

I sat down and put on my glasses.

"So shall we start?"- I asked and he just nodded heavily.

I pointed at the cameraman and we got started.

"Hi everyone! We are here with our number 18 player, Leon Goretzka. So... Leon, are you excited for the new season?"- I asked him.

"Yeah, I'm really excited. It's nice being back with the boys."-He said.

"Who do you get on the best with from the team?"- I asked, reading the question from the cards that were given to me.

"I would say Kimmich. I've known him since I was a kid."-He said with a smile.

"Who is your role model?"-I asked.

"My father for sure."-He anwsered.

After we finished the interview I went to the computers and watched the footage. He walked up behind me. I looked at him. His eyes were fixen on the screen.

"I think we did great."-I said.

"Yeah, I think that too."-he said.

When we finished watching the tapes I said goodbye to the staff and left the room. I squatted down next to the door and put my head into my palms and let out a big breath. I couldn't belive that I was living the life that I actually planned. Leon stepped out.

"What are you doing down there."- he asked.

"Just collecting my thoughts."- I said and stood up.

"Well, I'll see you soon then I guess."- I said and walked to the office.

I was editing at my desk and decided to look out the window. The boys were practicing. I couldn't help but stare at Leon. I was secretly wishing to see him more. I finished that day's work I thought why not check them out from a little close. I went down to the field and sat down. Kimmich sat down next to me.

"Hi!"-he said while grabbing a water bottle.

"Hi!"-I said back.

"You're new here right? I haven't seen you before."-He said after taking a big sip.

"Yeah I've just started. It's very nice actually. I'm Estelle by the way."- I said with a small smile, offering my hand for him to shake it.

"Joshua. But I'm sure you already know that."-he said making me let out a little giggle.

After watching the boys train I decided to go home. I ordered some food and sat down to watch some TV. My phone lit up.

@leon_goretzka started following you

"Well, that's something I didn't expect!"-I said it out loud, smiling at my phone.
