It's us against the world

41 - movie

We talk for what seems like a few minutes but in reality it was a couple hours. I pull out my phone and look at the time, "Le we should probably go home now. It's getting late." I tell her.

She looks shocked, "you do have your phone with you?!"

I giggle, "yeah, why?"

She smirks, "I thought you said its at home!"

I quickly get up and run away from her, back to the car, to try and escape the telling off I was going to receive.

I jump in and hide under the jumper Leah has stored in here 'just incase', not that it made any difference if I'm hiding or not but at least I have a small chance.

"Yeah, you better hide," is what I hear coming from a voice that just opened the car door.

I giggle again until I feel us start to move out of the car park and then peek out of my jumper and see Leah concentrating on the road.

After a couple minutes of hiding, making sure Leah wasn't suddenly going to torture me, I whip out my phone and call Beth. She picks up after a couple rings and I put it on speaker phone so Leah can hear too.

"Hey Beth!" I shout at her.

"Hey what's up?" She asks me, I hear a door close so I assume shes just got back inside.

"Nothing. I was just wondering if you wanted to watch a movie with me when I get back." I smirk as I emphasise the 'me' receiving a confused expression from Leah.

"What about me?" She then asks, feeling left out.

Before I could answer, Beth does instead, "yeah Leah, I'll get Viv to join too. She's just here with me."

I sigh in defeat, "fine."

Beth laughs from the other side of the phone.

I continue, "right Beth, we'll see you at home in about 10 minutes. Get a movie ready for us."

"Yep, I will don't worry. Bye." She replies before she hangs up the phone.

I stare at Leah for the rest of the journey back, just admiring how focused she is when driving.

"Nice view there?" She smirks, taking a second from the road to look at me.

I am shocked by her observations, "what - um - yeah." I admit it to her anyway knowing she would have known I was lying if I said no.

Once we've pulled up at the house she laughs to herself, "you are so in love with me."

She giggles again before getting out of the car, with me following of course, and we go up to her room quickly to get changed into some pyjamas.

I put on Leah's Arsenal jumper and her shorts, which come down to my knees. Honestly, she is so tall with those lanky giraffe legs, I don't think I could cope with being that tall. Ever.

She puts on her Arsenal top from last season and a pair of her trousers, to my calculations, they would trip me over if I tried to wear them and her top would be like a dress on me.

I kiss her cheek, "you look so beautiful."

She gasps, "are you saying I don't always look beautiful?"

I roll my eyes, making her giggle. I know she was being sarcastic but it's always funny when things like this happen.

She wraps her arms around my waist and they land onto my bum, picking me up and taking me downstairs.

"Leah! Leah! Put me down!" I squeal, holding onto her for dear life as we make our way on the stairs.

She just giggles, holding me loosely but tight enough to not let me slip, and takes me all the way to the sofa and dumps me down there.

Beth and Viv are already there, cuddled up on one side and leaving us with the other.

Leah sits down right next to me and lets me cuddle into her side with her arm wrapped around me and my head resting on her chest.
I don't really pay attention to the movie, nor do I care what we were watching.

I was far too busy with my eyes on something else.

On someone else.

On Leah. My Leah.

Every movement she made. Every time she laughed at something funny. Every time she jumped at something scary.

God, she was amazing. Like, really amazing. The best thing that has ever happened to me was this girl.

I was too engrossed in watching my girl, to notice myself falling asleep on her chest for the rest of the movie.

I can't explain how truly beautiful she is, all the time.

Leah POV:

The movie has now finished and I realise that Jess has fallen asleep on me. She's so beautiful, even when she sleeps. Her lips slightly parted, allowing air to move in and out as she takes breaths, the edges tilted slightly upwards forming a soft smile.

She just looks so effortless.

I decide that I will take her upstairs to sleep, instead of the sofa which would most likely leave her with a sore neck tomorrow.

Of course, she will be sleeping in my bed, there's no excuse to that.

I carry her upstairs, holding her in my arms and realising how light she is.

We reach my bed and I lay her down carefully, hoping not to wake her up and I pull the covers over the top of her before getting in myself.

A/n: sorry guys I took longer than 2 minutes 😞

Also question: what do you think of the new World Cup squad??

JORDAN MADE IT which kinda made my day but still no Beth, Leah or Fran with them ACL's 😭

I think Le Tissier was really unlucky to not be picked cuz I would pick her over Morgan and no Keets which was rlly sad but she hasn't been scoring too much lately.

AND IM GOING TO THE WORLD CUP SEND OFF MATCH WHICH IS RLLY AMAZING!!!
