Aidan's POV
"You were awesome out there" Jullian says while sitting on my bed.
"Thanks Julie" We had practice about an hour ago.
"Now for the fun part" I can't wait to hear this "We are going on a man hunt"
"A man hunt?" I ask just to be clear.
For the past few days we've been working preparing to performing at Les Bleus party which is going to take place tomorrow. I haven't really gone out to do anything since I arrived. I was expecting Julie to suggest a spar date or shopping that's what we usually do after a long week. This 'man hunt' thing is new.
"Yep. Tomorrow there's going to be a lot of people at the party, I can't wait" she goes on "I'm going to see favorite player Antoine, people say his even more handsome in real life, maybe he could give me an autograph. You should shoot your shot with one of the players" she wiggles her perfect eyebrows at me.
The truth is I want something real not just a hookup where somebody doesn't even remember my name the next day.
"I am not going to have a French fling with anyone and definitely not a world class soccer player"
"If you say so. Just remember that this is closest thing to a vacation that you'll get this year so don't waste your time overthinking things that you fail to enjoy this time. Have you seen your outfit for tomorrow's party?"
"No. But you have that glint in your eye" Julie smirks.
"What glint"
"The one that tells me all I need to know"
The next day
Adam's POV
"You guys" Gabriel's girlfriend Stella who is sitting next to me says "We have an announcement to make"
We seated at a table in the far corner of the club. They have thrown another party for the winning team,us. We were allowed to come with a plus one which is why almost all my teammates came with their girlfriends and wives. Except for Antoine, Beau and me.
"We are getting married" Gabriel shouts over the loud music in the club. His definitely excited.
"Congratulations to you both" I kiss Stella on her cheek and stand up to high five Gabriel.
"About damn time" Antoine says.
Everybody around the table offers their congrats. Gabriel and Stella have been dating for 7years, they have two kids together, we knew sooner or later they'd get married.
"When are you going to get a girlfriend Adam" Sylvia a good friend of mine and Alejandro's wife asks.
"Having a girlfriend would be really unfair of me, why would I let only one woman enjoy all of this, what about the others" laughter breaks out from around the table.
"You are speaking like one of your fans"
"I know. I saw a comment like that on of my posts"
"Hello Paris" A voice shouts over the noise grabbing my attention.
"Are you ready to have a great time" The girl on stage asks no one in particular. She's handed a guitar which she puts around her neck and clutches to her body. She looks hot.
The crowd roars including the women at our table who grab their partners to go and stand near the stage.
The American girl starts singing and the two guys standing next to her on stage join in.
"Damn they're good" Enzo says
Her voice, it sounds like vanilla cream over ice .
"The American girl is hot, she's a full package" Antoine stupidly comments.
A waitress comes over to our table
"Can I get you anything sir" She asks.
"No" I say not paying her much attention because am too busy staring at the American girl on stage. When the waitress leaves, Antoine is quick to ask
"The girl was clearly into you, she was shoving her tits in your face trying to get your attention. You didn't even spare her a glance, are you celibate Adam?" Trust him to ask the most stupid questions.
"No fuck face"
"You are mine.........
We'll always be together...." They finish the song.
"Americans love fairy tale bullshit, as if they didn't have enough of that in their movies they just had to put it in their songs" Enzo says downing his fourth drink.
"I bet she believes in all the happily ever after shit she was singing" Antoine adds
"She looks oddly familiar"
"Have you slept with her" Enzo asks
"Nah, I'd remember"
"Let me Google her" Antoine says taking out his phone.
After a minute or two
"Tabloids have named her America's girlfriend. She's dated actors, musicians, models, this girl a very interesting dating life. Oh and there's this one her ex-boyfriend who is a model cheated on her, the bastard! It was about a month ago. According to google she's totally single"
"You know better than to believe what you see on the internet" I say
"You know, I could make Aidan Price fall madly in love with me within two weeks" Antoine smugly announces.
Aidan Price, so that's her name.
"A week would be enough for me" I say as if on instinct.
"Is everything a competition to you lot" Enzo asks
"Yes"
"Yap"
"I will give you this week Adam, if by the end of the week the American is head over heels in love with you, then you win. If she isn't which am sure she won't, I will sweep her off her feet make her fall in love with me in 2 weeks and win the bet"
"Deal" Am going to win the bet, no matter what.
"Mates, you are talking about a person not just some cat you can win over" The ever sensible Enzo says.
Antoine looks at me and I nod.
"Let's call her over"
