Trents POV:
"Do you think she's gonna show up?" I ask Andy as I tie my laces.
"She said she was" he shrugs.
"I know, I'm just worried that if she doesn't come then it means we are finally over."
"Mate she will be here." He pats my back.
"How long has it been since you've seen her?" Virgil chimes in.
"Around 2 weeks, like I saw her a couple of days after she left. So from then and now like 2 weeks."
"Do you miss her?" He asks
"Of course I miss her."
"Then stop overthinking things."he winks as a small figure pops out of the corner. I look up and see Shaima in a loose LFC long sleeve shirt covering her belly and a pair of jeans. "Told you."
"What did you tell him" she laughs.
"That you will be here."
She looks over to me in a confused matter. "I never miss a home game" she laughs.
"Ya ya I know," I smile and walk up to her. "Come on," I pull her outside the room and sit down on the bench in the hallway.
"You excited? Last game before prem starts??" She asks
"Excited for the game? Of course. I'm also excited that you're here." I smile softly. "I've missed you shay" I grab her hands and intertwine them with mine.
"That's why I wanted to talk to you before the game."
"Wait what's wrong." I ask worried
"Nothing is wrong, I thought about it a lot. And well with my mom putting some sense into me, I want to come home. But I don't want to have this happen again Trent. I don't want her growing up in a broken home. In a home where her parents are not together." She confesses. I smile widely but she stops me from talking "but I have to tell you this first. Mason and I, we kissed. It was once and it was after a long talk with my mom and well it just happened."
"Did you feel anything?" I ask
"No," she shakes her head. "I love Mason, I will always love Mason. But we aren't meant to be to be in that type of relationship. I moved in with my mom after it happened. Don't get me wrong I was still there every day but it felt weird if I stayed after that."
"So what does this mean then?" I ask her
She lets out a soft laugh. "Well I thought you were gonna answer that question" she smiles.
I grab her hands and give it a squeeze. "Well, I would love for us to start over, I don't care how long it takes. I will do anything to make sure you have my trust again."
"Last chance Trent"
"That's all I need." I smile "Come home Shaima please."
"I'll grab my things after the game." I pull her into a hug and we stay in that position for what seems like forever. Until we hear a strong voice come from behind us.
"Aweeee see what happens when you guys talk things out." Virgil laughs with Andy by his side.
"Shut up you idiot" Shaima giggles.
"Shaima sweetheart, do you want to sit with us for the game?" Jurgen asks from behind the boys.
"Is that even allowed?" I laugh
"Trent it's preseason and I make the rules," he winks.
"Well in that case I would love to" Shaima smiles.
