"I'm getting drafted!" No fucking way.

"What the fuck?" I pull Hayden into a hug along with Kian and Alex. "We're going pro."

"Together bro." Together. It was always our dream to go pro together and now it's happening. "I always knew you would." Kian leans back, "how do you know?" Hayden was beaming, "Coach called my parents and then called me, apparently they're going to FaceTime me later."

"Oh shit. Well, it looks like we're getting drunk." Hayden gives me a side-eye, "Carter, we don't have another game for over a week, let's chill."

"Yeah, Carter, let's chill" Alex mimics causing Hayden to hit his head. "I just wanna say that I really appreciate you guys, I mean it," Hayden says with a grin as Kian rolls his eyes, "okay, let's stop with the feelings." We all let out a laugh together. "What's going on out here?" We pull out of the hung to notice the girls heading towards the pool. "Ladies you have officially got two pro footballers in front of you." Kian indicates toward me and Hayden. "Congrats dude."

"Thanks, Wilson." I notice Liv doesn't say anything but just heads over to the lounge chairs. "Aren't you going to congratulate me, Johnson?" Olivia releases a laugh, "congratulations, Jones" she says while slowly clapping.

"I'm gonna go grab a beer."

"I'll come with." Hayden and Kian head inside while me and Alex head towards the pool. "Can we talk?"

"Why?" Nothing's ever easy with this girl. "I just want to talk."

Ele looks up at me before she finally decides to get up, "sure." I stretch out my hand, "let's head inside."

"The sun is setting anyways."

"So, what do you wanna talk about?" Ele question as I'm sat on our bed while Roma's stood out on the balcony

"So, what do you wanna talk about?" Ele question as I'm sat on our bed while Roma's stood out on the balcony. "Us." I run my hands through my hair before getting up, "I told you I'm not having this conversation." I hear him release a low laugh, "Eleonora, we both know I'm very stubborn, the sooner we have this conversation, the sooner I'll stop bugging you and you can leave the room."

"Fine, what about us?"

Roma finally turns to look at me, I'm standing in the middle of the room not daring to move any closer. "I like you." He takes a step forward, "I really fucking like you."
