I Only Care About You (Michael Carrick) -COMPLETED-

Chapter 1.

*A/N. Okay guys, this story is going to be different to what you probably thought. It invloves Cristiano Ronaldo in a different light and none of what I may write about him is true as I completely adore him. The other character in this story, Michael Carrick, is just totally gorgeous so I had to include him because I love him. Please don't hate on me for the way I write about the Real players because I am in fact a Madridsta and love them all. I just thought I'd let you know. Thank you*.

INTRO.

When you’re the best friend of a Premier League footballer, things aren’t always what they seem. There’s the faking, the lying and the pretending. It’s hard to live a life like this but when you’re doing it for the person you love, you can’t say no.

My name is Alice Edwards and I’m 22 years old. My best friend is the Manchester United mid-fielder, Michael Carrick. We’ve been best friends for years and I don’t know where I’d be without him. We’ve had our ups and downs as friends but we’ve always made up because when your best friends with someone, you can’t let them go because they mean so much to you.

One more thing, my grandfather was Duncan Edwards, the Manchester United legend. If you don’t know who he is then you clearly don’t have any respect towards the club at all. Duncan Edwards was a United player back in 1958. Every United fan knows what happened in 58’ and it is never to be forgotten.

For your sake, just in case you don’t know what happened. I’ll tell you.

February 6th, 1958. The United squad were on their way back from a Champions League match, in the return journey they had to stop to refuel the plane in snowy Munich.

The plane attempted to take off 3 times on the German runway but failed. On the third attempt, the plane skidded off the end of the runway and into some outhouse buildings.

Players and staff were severely injured and 8 players died from that disaster, along with staff and journalists

My grandfather actually survived the crash itself however died several days after in Hospital. I never met my grandfather but I know how much of a legend and hero he is to Manchester United.

 I will never forget you Grandad.
