Leah and I were back at Arsenal training, and it was my birthday tomorrow. No one knew, I wasn't a huge fan of my birthday so I didn't mind it not being celebrated."Right guys, we're gonna start off with some fun today before we get into games. Does everyone know the bleep test?" Jonas explained after he had gathered us all in. I internally groaned at his question. Of course I knew what the bleep test was, I was fucking good at it, but I hated it. It was so boring. Everyone said yes and we all lined up.
I remember doing the bleep test when I was at Manchester United. I was so close to winning, but of course Ella wanted to one up me so I lost to her. She never let me live it down. But I had been training a lot more since then so I knew that I could 100% go further this time.
"You girls watch out. I'm about to smoke you all." I casually commented as we all got ready to run. There was a chorus of laughter and protests as the first bleep sounded and we all got stuck in.
The girls were fast, I won't lie, but not as fast as me. I looked to my side as I saw Leah drop out at level 7. Most of the girls had gone by that point, but there was a few of us left.
It got the stage where it was just Foord, Viv, and I still running while the rest of the team watched on from the sidelines. I could feel myself starting to tire out massively but I remembered that Leah was watching me and I kind of really wanted to impress her.
Viv dropped out so it was just Foord and I left. I tried to control my breathing as I looked to my left side and saw Leah looking at me with an encouraging smile on her face. This pushed me to keep going, even though I was absolutely fucked. I heard cheering as I saw that Foord had finally stopped running. A rush of adrenaline came over me as I realised that I had beat everyone on the team. I kept going until I physically couldn't and ending up collapsing on the floor at level 14.
Leah ran over to me with a huge smile on her face and laid down on the floor next to me. "Wow, y/n/n. I knew you were good at running, but not that good." She giggled in amazement as we both sat up at the same time.
"Did I impress you?" I asked, still panting. Leah started to blush and smirked back at me before standing up so that she was looking down on me. "Oh yeah. Maybe you could put that stamina to use elsewhere."
My mouth was agape as my mind registered what she had just said. I stood up and shoved her shoulder gently, "You dirty-" Viv interrupted me by running over and jumping on my back. I wasn't prepared and my eyes widened as I fell flat on my face. "Ouch." I groaned as I rolled onto my back and held onto my nose. Leah and the rest of the girls that had ran over after seeing the commotion were standing around Viv and I on a heap on the floor killing themselves laughing.
"Not funny." I stated sternly as I stood up and removed my hand from my nose, I looked down and noticed blood on my hand. "Vivianne! You bitch, you made me bleed!" I exclaimed as I pointed down to her on the floor. Leah stopped laughing and grabbed my face so that I was turned around and facing her. Her face contorted into one of worry as she studied my nose.
"That looks sore. Are you okay?" She asked in a tone of concern. I wiped the blood off my nose and moved my nose around a bit to see if it was okay. "Yeah it's all good. Just a bit of blood." I explained as I noticed that my nose didn't really hurt that much.
Jonas walked over, "Right girls, no injuries please. Well done y/n, the nose okay?" He asked.
"Yep all good." I replied while giving him a thumbs up.
He nodded and moved into a space where all of the girls could see and heard him. "Great, okay. Split into two teams and we'll have a little game."
