My Neighbor || Brooklyn Beckham

Chapter 8

*Brooklyn' POV*
I wake up at 6:30am and realize someone is on me. I smile as I see Laura...she doesn't even make a sound. My mum peeks in the door and smiles and takes a pic.
"Mum," I groan.
"Hush, you'll wake her." she leaves. Laura smacks me on the arm and laughs. I push her off the couch and she pulls me with her.
"Hey I've got great news," I say.
"And what's that?" she asks.
"My parents are leaving tomorrow for a 3 week thing," I say. "And the other boys are going to friends' houses. This is good news because we can hang out loads."

*Laura's POV*
I left Brooklyn's and headed for my own. Eden is never home I swear! My birthday is next Sunday and I'm so happy! Ooh! I gotta get Brooklyn a present. I pack a bag full of my fave clothes and shoes and go back to the Beckham's. (I'm gonna start making the chapter picture a pic of Laura's OOTD). To go to the fashion thing, I'm wearing a: Chelsea FC t-shirt, black shorts, and Chelsea FC vans. That was my dad's present from last year. I love him and I miss him. His health hasn't been the best lately and I'm scared something might happen to him. I post a pic on my snapchat with the caption: "modeling gig ft. CFC 🔵" My phone beeps and I check the text. It's from one of teammates who's usually on bench, but is a really good player.
Skye🐰: hey, uh can I tell you something
Me🙌: sure, what's up
Skye🐰: well, you know how I'm always on bench and my talent is basically unrecognized at Chelsea?
Me🙌: yeah. what about that?
Skye🐰: well I'm going to Man United to train and then their coach is going to see if I'm good enough.
Me🙌: ...what...? no! U cant leave! please don't go!
Skye🐰: it was my dads choice. he doesn't wanna pay for me to play every year if I'm just winding up on bench
Me🙌: 😭 i don't want you to go! one of my jobs as captain is to make sure everyone feels as if they're good...and trust me! You are!
Skye🐰: haha thanks and I'll miss you so much!
Me🙌: when r u leaving?
Skye🐰: Monday...my dad wants me to be there at least for one of CFC's matches
Me🙌: that's it! we r having a party after the match. U will be well missed by everyone cause u have been at the club longer than I have! luv u
Skye🐰: luv u too✌️
That's it...my day has been ruined. This girl was the first person to befriend me when I came to London. I need to text Eden.
Me🙌: Eden, after my dance session at 6, can we go to the party store please?!
Eden👏: uh...why?
Me🙌: because one of my teammates, Skye, who is always on the bench is going to Man Utd!
Eden👏: aw that sucks! yeah we can go. by the way, clean your room cause Jessica is spending the night. Oscar is a pain in my life🔫

"We are going out to eat," David says. I'm sitting up front next to him because he wants to chat to me...weird I know. I text Brooklyn even though he's sitting right behind me and I've changed his emoji on me phone.
Me🙌: how was I today? honest please
Brooklyn💏: amazing...gorgeous!😍 I can't wait for our birthday together!
Me🙌: thanks haha and me as well.
"Anyway, Laura," David says. "You have got a nice accent by the way. Uh, you know who Cristiano Ronaldo is, right?" What kind of question is that?! Of course I know who he is! He is one of top three players ever! He is absolute Bae and I've met him once...on accident.
"Of course!" I shout. "I have met him before when he was in London." David chuckles to himself.
"Anyway, he's in London and I asked him if he would come and watch your match," he says. "Which he gladly agreed to."

/Laura's football training\

"As tradition ladies," my coach says. "Since it's the night before the first match we are scrimmaging!!" Cheers come from my teammates.
"Who are we playing exactly?" Grace asks.
"The team that always makes us 2nd place in the premier league: Man City." Coach grins. We all cheer and slap hands. How I would love to smack their buts in victory!
My team ends up winning 4-2...not bad for our first scrimmage. Jessica and I walk to the front of the stadium and get into Eden's car.
"Me and Brooklyn agreed on laser tagging by the way," I tell him.
"What for?" Jessica asks from the back.
"Our party," I say. "Thorgan and Kylian are gonna be here too!"
"Yes!" Jessica shouts. "We are gonna own them bloody Beckham's!" Eden laughs.
"By the way, dad called me earlier and told me you need to check the mail box for something," he says.
"Is it my birthday present from him and mom?" I ask.
"I think so," he says. "Oh and I found this school in East London, it's private, and you can get in if you pass the test. And if you fail, you can pay €10,000 to get in."
"I could pass...I am smart YA know?" I wink at him.
"Are you two like this all the time?" Jessica asks.
"Always," we say in unison.
"Wanna swim till midnight?" I ask Jessica.
"Please!" she shouts. We get to my house and I put on my blue and black bikini and rush out to the backyard. Jessica follows in her Brazil thingy and I cannon ball in. There is one thing I have been noticing since I got back to Chelsea...Grace is always doing something.
"Does Grace ignore us on purpose?" I ask.
"Don't think so," Jessica says. "Why?"
"I don't know." I shrug. "I just get the feeling." Jessica finally jumps in and I hear a shout from my left.
"Who was that!" Jessica whisper-shouts. I laugh at her, she looks like she might pee herself.
"It is I, Brooklyn Beckham, the great!" he says.
"You scared the daylights out of me," Jessica says. Brooklyn rips of his shirt and jumps in. His body...I feel like I could pass out. Wait, I shouldn't say that. He might hear me.
"I did," he says. "And thank you." We splash around a bit and then it's 11:15.
"We better go," I say. "We have a match tomorrow at 9:45. You coming?"
"Maybe." Brooklyn smirks. Jessica and I go inside and get up to bed.
It's 6:45 when we wake up the next morning and we couldn't be any more excited! I throw on my jersey and my warm up jacket. I throw my hair into a high pony tail and then braid it. Jessica asks me to do her hair, so I do the same as mine. We jog down the stairs and eat cereal.
"Eden, will you take a photo of us, please?" I ask. He nods and we stand together while he takes a pic. I then post it to instagram using the caption: "Matchdayyyyyy!! Chelsea U15's vs. Man City U15's! Hope for a great first game and possibly a win!⚽️" Loads of people like and comment wishing us good luck. I thank a few friends of mine and @shannonterry_cfc. She reposts my pic and I like it.
"Let's go guys," Eden says. "You gotta be there by 9." Yannis, Leo, and Natasha join us downstairs and we head for the stadium. Boy am I excited!
