Changed

I could get used to this.

Leah's POV:

I had been sat alone twiddling my thumbs in Beth and Ella's room for way too long. Finally, Beth walked into me sat there, head in hands on the end of her bed.

Beth: "Whoa captain, what is wrong?" she said, before coming and sitting next to me. I explained everything to Beth, including what she had said in the interview and also what Ella said to me before leaving.

Leah: "I really like her, Beth. I don't want to get my hopes up" I said.

Beth: "I know you do Lee, I know. Follow Alessia's pace. You must be very special to her, and she must think a lot of you. To go from thinking you're straight to falling for a girl is a blessing in disguise but also very confusing. Just don't rush, be there for her and reassure her that's its okay and normal."

Leah: "Thanks Beth, I love you. Come here" I said, pulling Beth into a hug. We sat there hugging until Ella walked back into the room and threw the room keys at me.

Ella: "I talked to her Lee. Just be careful with her, please" Ella smiled, before jumping onto her bed.

Leah: "I promise I will" i smiled, before walking back into the room.

Alessia was sat on the end of the bed scrolling through Netflix, when she looked at me and gave me a cheesy grin. "I missed that little smile of yours" i said to Alessia. She smiled before showing me her phone.

Alessia: "Sarina texted that were having dinner in our rooms tonight because they haven't finished clearly away from earlier. Do you want me to take down your food order for you?" she said.

Leah: "Why don't we go together? I need to get out these rooms just for a little bit" I shrugged, before taking Alessias hand and softly pushing her out of the door with me.

Alessia had gone for the BBQ Chicken for dinner with a protein shake and a pot of vegetables, whereas I'd chosen the Chicken with Pineapple Egg Fried Rice. The food here is always delicious and is probably one of my favourite things about the place. After we had taken the walk down to the restaurant and back up to the room, we made ourselves comfy in bed ready for when our food was left outside the door.

Alessia: "So, what do you want to watch?" Alessia asked me. I felt as if a romance would be a good bet, maybe it would put her in her feels a little bit and make it easier for her to make a move.

Leah: "Hmmm, why not something like After? It's a good film" I said, looking at Alessia.

Alessia: "I've never seen it, but I've heard about it. Let's watch it, I trust you" she said, smiling at me and pressing play on the remote. In the first half an hour of the film, i kept feeling Alessia glance at me. I tried to not make eye contact, so she didn't feel awkward, but I wanted her to know I was looking at her too. I felt her look at me again, so I purposely turned my head and smiled at her.

Leah: "Come here" i patted the bed next to me. A smile appeared on Alessia's face as she jumped out of her bed, and crawled in next to me, putting her head on my chest. It all felt so natural. We carried on watching After, and I had my hand in her hair scratching her head to make her feel a bit more relaxed. My god, this girl is everything, I could get used to this.

Soon after, our food arrived, and we sat in bed eating. Alessia looked at me with a disgusted look on her face.

Alessia: "Who on earth eats pineapple in egg fried rice? That's just as wrong as putting pineapple on pizza" she said, very seriously in fact.

Leah: "Don't knock it until you try it little one. Open up" I said, putting my spoon in her mouth and feeding her. Alessia smiled so brightly, before pulling a few surprised faces.

Alessia: "Right, never mind, that's actually really good" she giggled, before taking her spoon and digging it back into my plate. "Stop eating my food you cheek, you have your own there" I laughed back.

We ended up having a fight over food, I was tickling Alessia in hope that she would stop trying to steal all of my rice, but it took me a while to realise her only ticklish spot was right underneath her shoulders. Once she started fighting back, i threw her onto the bed and laid on top of her, pinning her arms onto the bed. It took Alessia a few moments to calm down, but when she did, she realised how close I was to her face and that I was literally on top of her.

Alessia's POV:

Oh. My. Goodness. The Leah Williamson was laid on top of me with her face practically touching mine. I started to get butterflies, but also get extremely nervous. My heart was beating so fast, but I knew it was now or never. I knew there was a cheeky plan to Leah putting on a romantic film, but I can't blame her for it. She wanted this so badly, as did i. Alessia, remember what you said to Ella earlier? Yeah, fuck it, what is there to lose?

I looked up at Leah and put my hand on her neck before pulling her face closer to mine. She adjusted her body and also put her hand under my chin, before finding my lips and kissing them slowly. I'd never felt fireworks inside my body like this, but I loved it. I didn't want to stop. Leah pulled away and smiled at me, but I wasn't finished. I pulled her head back down until her lips met mine again, where we kissed passionately. Soon enough, our tongues found each other's, and it began to get heated. I knew that Leah wouldn't take it too far, so I was comfortable in kissing her like this. After a few minutes, we pulled away to which Leah looked at me, gasping for breath before saying "Wow Alessia. I needed that."

I looked at Leah and smiled. "I needed that too. I really did" I said, pulling myself out from under Leah and making my way under her bed sheets. "Come here" Leah crawled next to me and let out a sigh of relief, and we just laid there in silence for a while. Neither of us felt the need to say anything, we just wanted to appreciate each other's company.
