Choices

I am wearing my PSG tracksuit and feeling so tired however well-rested. I scoop my hair into a very half-hearted messy bun and put on a light touch of make up as it is a game today, which is being shown on telly so I would rather look decent for live television just in case the camera happens to focus on Poch and I am in the background.

I slip my black Nikes and head out of my room to go to the hotel restaurant as it is breakfast in five minutes. The match doesn't kick off until three in the afternoon so we have no rush today compared to a morning or lunchtime match.

The rest of the team are already there and I push open the door to the restaurant, my hear thumps in my chest as my thoughts go back to last night.

Kylian is sat at the table with Neymar and Messi probably talking about the game today. I ponder on whether or not I should go and sit with them but Jacques calls my name and beckons me over.

I head over to the empty chair opposite my co-worker, he leans forward onto his elbows and looks at me with his tired blue eyes. "We have a new part-time coach that is going to start, she is only going to be in four times a week but it's to ease the pressure off of our backs and so that one of us fills in any paperwork whilst training is still going on." Jacques tells me and I raise my eyebrows.

It's another girl? "Oh that's good, what's her name?" I perk up and lean back nodding to myself.

"I think her name is Maya, don't know her last name but her profile seems really promising, she's is around your age and has done other work like this."

"That sounds like just what we need. When is she starting then?"

"Next week Monday, so day after we get back."

I slowly nod with a small smile upon my face, she sounds really lovely and I am excited to have a female co-worker finally, so maybe it'll add to the atmosphere a little more. "Cool."

Jacques' face then changes and I give him a cautious look. "So?" He raise his eyebrows with his eyes twinkling at me with whatever he is going to say next.

"What?" I let out a small laugh before looking to my right, Kylian is staring right at me. My heart skips a beat and I quickly look back at Jacques.

"You know what, Kylian hasn't stopped staring at you since you walked through that restaurant door, and you two seemed pretty cosy on the way here, heard you two talking non-stop." He leans more on his elbows and his voice is low. The teasing smile on his face tells me what he is thinking.

"We are just friends, Jacques, I have Jack remember."

"Oh yeah you have that amazing boyfriend of yours, sorry." He shakes his head before moving back into his chair more.

I bite my lip before getting out of my chair and going over to the breakfast buffet.

I sense someone behind me and I tilt my head upwards to look, it's Kylian beaming down at me. "Morning, Olivia, looking beautiful as always." He flirts and it causes me to go quite red in the face.

"Morning to you too, Kylian." I turn my head back towards the food as he smirks at how red I have gone.

The food smells absolutely amazing, there's bacon, eggs, muffins, there's cereal stacked up to the left, a coffee and tea stop, and there is even sausages. I pile my plate with food all of a sudden feeling so hungry and Kylian chuckles. "Hungry today are we, must be because of last night." His voice is almost a whisper and it sends a shiver down my spine as his breath slightly tickles the small area of exposed skin on my neck.

I shake my head and bite my lip before walking back towards the table where I sit down and begin to eat my food.

Jacques just grins at me from where he is sat. I just ignore him and continue eating.

The boys are beginning to come out of the changing rooms, all dressed in the away PSG kit. I go over to Kylian and he smiles at me as our eyes meet.

"Hello you." He ruffles my hair and I smack his chest gently as I flatten my hair back down.

"Don't do that, it'll go all frizzy and then I will look awful." I send him glares and he just shakes his head.

"Don't be stupid, you always look beautiful." He leans down closer to me and his lips press against my cheek quickly when no one is looking.

"Good luck, play good." Is all I manage to say as I go beetroot red and my heart thumps in my ears.

"I always play good." Kylian folds his arms across his chest proudly.

"Yeah, yeah." I wave him off before I head out into the tunnel that takes me onto the pitch. I take my seat next to Jacques on the front row of the dug out and wait for the boys to come out.

It's a bit of a cold afternoon and I zip up my duffel coat as I begin to shiver. Jacques does the same and also rubs his hands together. "Cold today." He states and I nod my head in reply.

"Yeah, I'm hoping this match goes by fast don't fancy feeling like I've been stuck here forever." My teeth chatter together and I tuck my frozen fingers into the warm pockets as they begin to tingle from the bitterness.

The first half drones on a bit mainly consisting of Kylian throwing himself down in the box and Messi banging one in top left.

When half time comes Jacques talks to the team telling them to go more offense as the opposition don't have the best offense themselves so it shouldn't be too tricky to defend against even if they go on a fast break.

We wish them good luck again and they head back out onto the pitch ready to play the second half.

It's still freezing cold out here and around the seventieth minute everyone cheers as finally one of Kylian's shots kits the back of the net.

He beams at me as he jogs past the bench and Jacques nudges me a little. "He really likes you, the look he just gave you is the look of love."
