My Neighbor || Brooklyn Beckham

Chapter 27

*Laura🇧🇪*
"Andre Schürrle!" I shout. He looks in my direction.
"Beckham!" he shouts, coming over to me. He hugs me.
"You know Brooklyn, right?" I ask. He nods and shakes his hand.
"So what can you tell us about Chelsea?" Brooklyn asks.
"Uh, well Kevin De Bruyne came back, and Vincent Kompany moved to here," Andre says. "Everything else is good except for retiring players. Now, can I see Alyssa?" I get Alyssa out of the back and she points at Andre.
"Who's dat man?" she asks.
"This is Andre, the bro I've always wanted." I smile and Alyssa claps
"Hi!" she waves at him.
"Hello, cutie." Andre smiles at her.
"How are you and Montana?" I ask.
"Pretty good," he says. "I think I need to propose soon." He chuckles and we walk into the stadium.
"Kevin!" I shout as I see De Bruyne. He turns around.
"Heyyyyyy," he says, acting drunk, again.
"Back to that are we?" I ask. He laughs and we share a hug. The other 3 Belgian boys come around the corner.
"It ain't a party till Laura's here." Thibaut laughs and we all share hugs.
"We need to remake that photo we took when I was playing for City and all ya were playing for Chelsea," Vincent says.
"Good idea," Eden says. "Laura, you can still be the one in the air."
"I wasn't even in the air," I shoot. "Y'all just held me up." We pose for the pic and take it.
"Does anyone even have the original pic?" Kev asks.
"I do on my iPad somewhere," Eden says. "We need to go, but bye and thanks." Thibaut smiles.
"Who were those people, momma?" Alyssa asks.
"One was your uncle and the other three were our friends," I explain.
"So many people," she mutters. Brooklyn and I laugh. We get to our seats and right before the match starts, someone pokes my shoulder.
"Grace!" I shout, as I hug my best friend.
"How are you?" she asks.
"I'm amazing," I reply. "How bout you?"
"I've finally found a guy!" she squeals with excitement. "He's so perfect! His name is Kiel, and he lives in London."
"So how'd you two meet?" I ask.
"At Starbucks," she says. "I ran into him and spilled my drink, so he bought me another one and then we started talking."
"I don't like him," JT says, sitting down.
"I'm sure you will if you get to know him," Grace says, giving her 'dad' a small smile.
"Hey, Grace." Brooklyn smiles, giving her a hug.
"Long time no see, Beckham." she smiles back. "How's your guy's baby?"
"Perfect," Brook says. "Easiest thing in my life." I laugh. Haha, sure, Brooklyn. You tell yourself that.

*after the match*
Alyssa seemed to enjoy the match, especially cheering on her uncle. When he scored, he blew a kiss at her and she freaked out. Brooklyn grabs Alyssa and we head back to the car to leave.
"What're we doing tomorrow?" I ask. He just smiles at me.
"I'll tell you once I put her in bed," he says. I shake my head while laughing as we drive home.
"Time for bed, Lys," I say, while getting her out of the car.
"She's sleeping in my parent's room," Brooklyn whispers in my ear. I give him a nod, and let him take her upstairs.
"Hey Cruzie," I say, greeting the boy.
"Hey," he says, looking away from his FIFA game. "Ugh, I'm losing to this team in this tournament 1-0 right now."
"Can I try?" I ask. He hands me the remote.
"Go for it." he sits back, and watches. I score two goals in the next 10 minutes, and he ends up winning. He gives me a hug.
"Thanks!" he exclaims.
"Anytime," I say. He heads toward the back deck, and Brooklyn sits down next to me.
"Wanna know what we're doing tomorrow?" he asks. No I don't, not at all😒.
"Obviously," I say.
"Well, this house is all ours tomorrow. My family and Alyssa are leaving tomorrow at 6am to go to Manchester and won't come back until the next day." he smirks. "So, all day, and no one around." He leans over to me.
"You've got a dirty mind," I say.
"What do you want for dinner?" he asks, settling back into his seat.
"I don't know," I say.
"Or we could watch a movie," he says.
"Yeah, I like that idea." I give him a smile, as he goes to make popcorn. He tosses me a Dr. Pepper, my fave, and we walk into the cinema. He shuts the door and locks it. We sit in the front row for no reason, and he puts on a scary movie.
"Hope you're not scared of scary movies." Brooklyn smiles at me.
"Never have been," I admit. "But if I do, I have you right here." He puts his arm around me.
"That's what I thought," he says, hitting play. I lean against Brooklyn. A voice starts going halfway through the movie, and it's kinda scary.
"And he's always coming for you!" Brooklyn exclaims. He grabs my sides, and tickles me. I scream.
"Stop!" I shout while laughing.
"You okay?" he asks, still laughing. "I didn't mean to scare you."
"I wasn't scared," I mumble. "You just startled me, that's all." He rolls his eyes and shakes his head as if to say: "mmmmm hmmmm sure."
