𝐓𝐎 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 someone so close yet so far is quite a difficult thing to handle, and in luna's case it is even more difficult when the person you love is becoming far too close following a decade of no communication; it's not that she hated it, if any thing, she was elated that her friendship is now much stronger than it used to be.

what was terrifying was the fact that what she felt for him had returned to rear its head in full force, and she knew right then that all she can do was pray that it wasn't obvious.

that morning, while she kept a safe distance in order to get the proper photos for the training session, she noticed james and virgil muttering to one another in hushed whispers whilst they exchanged smiles then looked at jordan, and in the midst of a friendly 𝟓 on 𝟓 game; james looks at luna and says, " you're awfully quiet luna, is something on your mind? "

" as a matter of fact there is, i was wondering what life was like in your time? must have been easier to run than it is now " luna retorts with a teasing smile.

james laughs, " seriously hendo, how did you handle being around her? "

" it's not like he had a choice, whenever our mothers spent time together we were also present " luna shrugs.

" yeah i didn't, we were forced to spend time together and well that still didn't change " jordan retorts running along with the joke.

" oh i see " luna responds with a playful tone.

" come on, you know i'm joking lulu " jordan said.

" mhm sure " luna playfully hums, and snaps a few more photos of the rest of the game before moving near the goalkeeper area.

" yikes " james mutters to which he received a glare from jordan. " not what i expected to come out of this conversation "

after the training session had concluded, it was time to head home and jordan decided to go to luna to apologize, he found her in her small office; completely focused on what he could assume to be editing the photos.

carefully he knocked on the door, and she looks up to meet his gaze, tentatively he says " can i come in? "

" it depends, are you here on your own will or were you forced? " luna retorts.

" lu " jordan sighs.

" come in ... you can sit, i'm halfway done with the first set so there's one set left to go " luna said gesturing to the chair in front of her office.

jordan sat down, " i'm sorry, i shouldn't have joked about our friendship "

" it's ok, i overreacted myself " luna sighs, " i have to ask because i always wondered if you felt forced at any point to spend time with me "

" never, not even the slightest " jordan shakes his head. " yes i have plenty of friends, but no one was and still is as close to me as you are lulu "

luna smiles, " same here you know, i've made friends in colombia but not one of them can understand me or well ... endure my constant rambles like you "
