Despite my last seriously awkward conversation with Juan, nothing has changed we still text or talk everyday.
As I open my eyes to the beautiful Sunday morning sun beaming through my window I decide to go to the gym. I love going to the gym because it helps with fitness on the pitch. I have a small gym in my house but I decide to go to Carrington as the gym is better and bigger. We were given this Sunday off so I know there won't be anyone there. I get into my car with my gym gear and set off.
I'm in a surprisingly good mood for waking up at 9 on a Sunday.
When I arrive there's not many people there at all. I didn't even see the gaffer. David Moyes is such a nice man. He speaks with everyone and try's his very best. I change and head to the gym. I turn up the music really loud and start my workout.
About half an hour in I hear voices so I turn down the music.
The main door to the gym opens.
The gaffer is standing there with Juan, who is dressed in a grey suit. He is so handsome.
"Karia, I didn't expect to see you here. I'm delighted to see you working on your cardio, anyway this is Juan Mata. He's just arrived by helicopter. This was ment to be a secret but I think every person now knows he's here". The gaffer laughs and so does Juan.
He's such a beautiful person. I look at him and he gives me a little smirk. I then remember how terrible I must look considering I'm in gym clothes with my hair in a horrible bun with no makeup.
"Excuse my appearance". I laugh.
Juan smiles, "It's great to see you".
He walks over and hugs me.
This is our first hug since the Chelsea game.
He smells incredible. I must smell terrible, Karia get yourself together. Before he moves away he kisses my cheek and brushes his soft beard against my face.
For a moment I'm still ,then I remember the gaffer and what he must think.
"Me and Juan know each other through David we met when we played chelsea in November".
I saved myself from looking stupid.
"Ah great! You can give Juan the tour then, since you know the place well and it will give ye some time to catch up". David winks at us. Oh my god. He knows. He knows I fancy Juan. For god sake I'm a sad excuse for a girl.
I can feel myself going red so I start to walk. The gaffer leaves us alone.
"So, how have you been? I'm sorry I couldn't say I was coming today but I was sworn to secrecy. You look great by the way". He is joking right.
"Juan, I'm sweaty and red in gym gear".
He chuckles and I almost faint.
"Still look great to me".
I don't even think about what he has said and I lead him away for the tour of Carrington.

"So when I come training tomorrow I bring all my boots and Al looks after everything else?".
"Yeah he's great. He organises all the gear and the kits for games, you never have to worry about it".
Juan seems pleased with my tour guide skills.
"Did you tell David you were coming?"
"Ah yes I texted him this morning, he said you would cook us dinner tonight".
"First you told David and not me... I see I see I'm not spanish so I don't count it's okay I understand and second what!".
"I wanted to surprise you, and ya he said you're amazing".
Juan has a twinkle in his eye that makes me smile everytime I look at him.
"What are smiling about?".
"Can't I smile when I want to? Juan you're here 5 minutes and you're already running things".
I laugh.
"Ha ha very funny. I must say I am looking forward to dinner. I mean when you came to my house you got Chinese takeaway. I haven't had a home cooked meal in a while".
"I hope you like Irish food".
He smiles.
Juan heads to the gaffer'a office to sign etc.
I go home to prepare my house/my self for the dinner tonight.
