england versus italy.
another match that jadon dreaded playing, but for the sake of teasing her if they won, jadon trudged over to her dressing room to see her before their game.
the women for either teams had their seperate rooms for changing, was understandable but jadon still hated how he had to walk further to see her.
when he saw her step out in her blue kit, her cleats knocking off the floor as she held her arm band in her hand, her face broke into an immediate smile.
"you look hot." he said, taking a step back as he took her in, her shorts rolled slightly.
she laughed, wrapping her arms around his shoulders for a quick hug. "thanks, apparently so because em told me that same thing," she said, referring to her teammate emmy hernandez.
"i think it's the hair," he added, placing a kiss on her forehead. "or maybe it's the body," he laughed.
her curves showcased perfectly in her kit, and her hair was messier than usual, she never bothered to do it today. how much can you possibly, fix an afro?
"you like my hair?" she asked in shock, pulling back but still kept her grip on his forearms. "i love your hair,"
"thanks, didn't bother to touch it." she chuckled, and the sound of the cleats on the ground snapped them away from their little conversation, and moise motioned for her to join them with a wave of his hand.
"i'll see you after i score against your team," she smirked, patting his chest.
"please, you wish." jadon scoffed as they distanced.
"i don't have to wish, i know." she winked. "see you!"
"you too baby!"

zurolo 41'
kane 45+5'
half time, where the two teams were levelled and each and every player were stressing on how they could turn it around.
she'd be aware of what she was doing, some of her crosses were in place and some of her shots were wide, but at least they had enough time for either team to get another.
the whistle blew as italy had the ball first in this half, and she spaced herself from the others. whenever she was on the pitch, she tried desperately not to get distracted, seeing as she could easily.
getting the ball crossed to her from anna a bit from half-pitch, she let the ball touch her in-step before she only took a glance at player's closing in on her.
perfect, jadon and tammy.
pushing the ball between tammy's legs she tried to run freely as she would pass soon the one of her teammates, jadon kept up to her side when she broke away from them.
kai was really close to the line, and if jadon kept provoking her like he was now she would surely be pushed outside.
"what game you playing at?" kai said breathlessly as she was now back faced to him, trying to get out from captured between him.
