MINE FOREVER || JUDE BELLINGHAM

First Time Meeting, Love At First Sight?

"Get ready, cause you're about to meet a sexy ass man!" Charlotte threw a pillow at me as I lazily glared at her. "Come on! Jude Bellingham's waiting for you!"

"Fine!" I groaned as I did my usual, boring morning routine. It had already been a whole week, matches postponed and cancelled. 

Schalke versus Dortmund was moved a week later, today, which meant Charlie and I had more time to explore Germany. As Mason had said, many people targeted me here. One night in a night club a few men asked me to dance but I'd ignored them, and they almost beat me up unless the security guard wasn't there. "Just wait!"

"I've been yelling at you for a few times, and every time you go back to sleep!" She complained as I yawned and snuggled back into the covers. "Sadie! Wake up or I'm calling your brother!"

"Seriously, the match begins at three o'clock," I rolled my eyes as I tried to get more sleep. "You expect me to wake up at ten? And it's only nine in England, so your boyfriend hasn't woken up yet." 

Charlie laughed as I screamed while she snatched away the covers. "It's not even cold! Just get up and get over with it. Say, it's been an hour since I tried to wake you up."

"Fine!" She was already all dressed, her Dortmund shirt and tight jeans as she let her wavy brown hair down. "I'm getting up, chill girl." I got up as I pulled my Dortmund shirt on and tight jeans as well. I did my usual boring morning and skin routine as Charlie scrolled through her phone. "Eh. Light pink or dark pink colour for my lips?"

"Do you have yellow and black?" Charlie looked up as I brushed my hair. "Do half yellow and black. Matches the tension."

"I guess so," I shrugged. "But I don't have yellow. I only have black."

"Aw, that'll do," Charlie stood up as she grabbed her handbag. "Come on! In the mean time, let's go shopping. Maybe we'll find some yellow lipstick in time for you.

In fact, we did get yellow lipstick from some cheap store on a random street in Dortmund. It was called Betty's Lips, and fortunately a very nice Spanish lady worked there. As I spoke some Fluent words and sentences from high school, it did help a bit. 

It took already about three hours to find a proper store, so we swiftly headed to the stadium's toilet and fixed my lipstick colour.

"And... there we go!" Charlie exclaimed as I looked into the mirror. My lips were half yellow and half black, just how I wanted it. A cheap store in Germany founded by a Spanish woman worked just right. "You look absolutely sexy. Jude would get in bed with you tonight."

"Shut up," I rolled my eyes as I glanced at the clock. "You know we should be heading out by now. It's not normal to be late for a match."  I pulled her out as we headed for our VIP seats, the lounge now filled with multiple people. We grabbed out smoothies and food as we headed to the window bar table and waited. 

"Hi!" Denise popped out of nowhere and scared Charlie. "Sorry, darling. I just told Jude you both are here before the match, so you'll be able to speak to him. Possibly his friend Gio as well." 

I heard Charlie breathe sharply as the reporter said something in German we couldn't understand. "Oh, the match is starting. Well I'll be just by the seats, this is the lounge."

"Oh, alright!" I nodded as Charlie followed my lead. "We'll come as well. Charlie, get the popcorn please, the match's about to start."

The three of us stood by our seats, enjoying the view as the players marched out. I heard Charlie mumble quietly to her phone as I turned around. She seemed really happy, as I sat next to her and snatched her phone away.

It was Instagram. Mason had messaged her 'I Love You.' "That's all he said."

"It's just something I wished for him to say for a very long time."

 I sighed as I stood up again, pressing my hands against the glass. The match had already started, with Marco Reus hitting the goal post. I saw Jude cover his face in his palm as Schalke scored one in the thirtieth minute. At that exact moment, Denise came back.

"Y'okay?" I asked as she nodded silently. Her focus went back to her game, where Gio passed the  ball to Jude and he scored immediately and looked up to the VIP seats. Gio only gave me a smile and a quick nod, but Jude literally winked and gave me a thumbs up.

"So, good game, huh?" I asked as Jude chuckled and nodded. We were outside Jude's house, which wasn't far from the hotel. It was only about a few blocks away. "You did great."

"Three goals was it?" Jude glanced at me as I smiled back at him. "I would like to want to know you better." 

"Fine," I stuffed my hand in my jean pocket and took out a piece of paper as I tucked it into his grip. "I keep a few pieces of paper of my number just in case someone wants it. In this case, you are very lucky to have the last piece."

"I wonder," He raised his eyebrow as he tucked the paper into his coat pocket. "I'll message you tonight. Are you safe to go back yourself?"

"Yeah, obviously, it's only five, Mr. Who Is Worrying," My heart beat swiftly as he gazed off into the sun, and I flushed hard. "I'm going back now."

"Oh, uh, sure!" He quickly nodded as I hugged him around the neck, and walked away awkwardly. Suddenly he grasped my arm gently.

"Are you okay?" I asked as I turned around.

"J-just a compliment, you look nice today," Jude tucked a lock of haur behind my ear. "Keep this look. Not on the day we play against Chelsea, I know you have to support your brother. But this is just a suggestion."

"Well, thank you," We stood there, embarrassed while facing each other, until I walked away from him.
