Ever since you were a child you wanted to play for Real Madrid but the lack of support in women's football made that impossible so when Barcelona made you an offer you didn't think twice. If you couldn't play for Madrid then Barca would be the next best option. Now almost ten years later you have been told by your manager that that Deportivo TACÓN is being acquired and the new owner plans to rebrand the club to Real Madrid Femenino and they wanted you as their captain.

Your dream was so close to becoming a reality but you couldn't help but think of what it would cost you. The players and staff at Barca had become your family and you had met the love of your life at the club. Alexia is your everything, you partner on the pitch and off, if you accept the offer then she would become your enemy.

Sleep had become a luxury to you, now a good nights sleep would be if you got 5 hours. You lay in bed with Alexia buried comfortably into your side. Looking down at your girlfriend you knew that she knew, how could she not but she is yet to bring it up and although you want to know the reason why, you saw the ignorance as bliss.

You gently roll Alexia onto the other side of the bed and get up as quietly as possible trying not to wake her. You read your emails as the coffee brews, the warm aroma of the beans begins to wake you up.

You are pouring the freshly steamed milk into the two cups when you feel arms wrap around your waist and a kiss on the back on your neck. You turn around and are face to face with your girlfriend.

"I don't like it when I wake up and you're not there" Alexia says, her voice a little hoarse, clearly she has just this second woke up.

You want to make a joke about her having to get used to it but decide against it, now isn't the time.

"I couldn't sleep so I thought I would make us some coffee" you reply. You reach behind you grabbing Ale's cup, you place a quick kiss of her lips before grabbing you own cup and leading her to the balcony.

Now was the time to have the conversation that you had been dreading, the one that has being robbing you of your sleep.

When you look at Alexia she shakes her head. She knows what you are you about to say and she doesn't want to hear it.

"No" Alexia says simply.

"Baby, we need to talk about it" You say even though you agreed with her, you didn't want to discuss it either.

"No, not now. I'm not ready" Her honesty has you wrapped around her little finger.

"Fine but we have to at some point" You tell her "How about after training?"

"After training" Alexia agrees.

The two of you sit on the balcony for the next hour or so. Alexia holds you in her arms, she can feel your heart beating, deep down she knows how hard this is for you.

Training goes well. The team do activation, passing drills and then a scrimmage with you and Alexia as captains. The mini game is physical but you just enjoy yourself, you know that it is because you didn't have that many training sessions left with the team as the season is almost over.

The fun soon dies down when Jenni brings up the Real Madrid news at the post training meal.

"Don't tell me they have poached you?" Patri asks her.

"No but they told my manager that have a big player of the verge of signing and they will be the linchpin of the team" Jenni says.

You start getting nervous. As you look across the table to see Alexia staring at you and her eyes are glassy. You give her your signature smile trying to reassure her that it will be ok but her facial expression remains the same.
