Sunday, 8:30.
I struggled to pick myself from where I lay, my eyes glued shut, the sun shining through the mere gap between my curtains. Come on Alex, I tried negotiating with myself, a nice, warm, refreshing cup of coffee is waiting for you downstairs, and with that realisation I gathered all the strength, in which was my craving for a cappuccino, and rolled off my king sized bed, on to the hard wooden floor. I stood up, massaging where I had pummeled myself, looking at the sheets that were stuck in the position of my figure. I had always dreamed another one beside it, but love was not in my hand, it never had been.
...
I sat with my coffee, checking social medias and messages. No notifications, no messages. I was alone. My father, I had not known and my mother was in Paris, spending the abundance of money she had, preying on rich men with her beauty.
The only person I knew was my best friend, Andréa. I had known her since I was nine. Yet we had not talked in a while, not after she had gotten in a relationship. Part of me was happy for her, that she was maturing and moving on to the next step in her life, but part of me despised her for leaving me alone, knowing I was just that. Sometimes I questioned why I even had a phone, I just checked twitter for transfer news and well, footballers tweets. Same for instagram.
I drank small sips while doing the regular, however there was one face I kept seeing in particular, a young left-back who played for BVB. He was handsome, I admit, but I had only seen him play several times, and that was on TV. I didn't live far from Signal Iduna stadium, but I didn't have anyone to accompany me. His name was Erik Durm.

Erik's POV
All I could see and hear was rich women complaining about their handbags and drinking an expensive champagne. I didn't know what I was doing here. All I did was sit straight and wipe my mouth after every bite.
There were four of us here, Me, Marco, Mario and his 'girlfriend' Ann-kathrin. Marco only brought me along so he was not the third wheel, while Mario and Ann-kathrin were doing what couples did.
Suddenly I felt a small, soft, hand slide onto my leg, moving up and down in a teasing motion, until it reached there. I shook my leg, signalling Ann-kathrin that this was not the place, not on Mario's birthday.
''Im going to the bathroom'' Ann-kathrin said, clearing her voice, trying to give the idea to me to come.
''Now that you mention it, Ann-kathrin, I too need the bathroom'' I tried to sound as natural as I could.
Mario gave me a weird look, but then shook his head and continued digging into his food.
I looked around for Ann-kathrin down the hall where the toilets were, when a hand grabbed my arm and pulled me into a large room with nothing but a mirror.
''Hey sexy'' Ann-kathrin said, with an intimidating voice.
I gave her an angry look.
''What the fuck do you think you're doing?'' I whisper-shouted
''Whaaat? It's not like we haven't done it before'' She lingered
''It's his birthday, don't do this to him'' I tried to convince.
''Oh my god, seriously? You're actually doing this? Two people are involved in sex you know'' she allowed herself to reply with a sarcastic tone while she unbuttoned her dress.
''He's my friend too''
''If he was really you're friend why would you be sleeping with me?'' she asked, raising her eyebrows.
''I made a mistake, I was alone an-
''And a virgin'' she scoffed
''And vulnerable to people like you'' I continued
''We cant keep doing this'' I carried on, saying it all in one go.''You know, I could tell Mario, you would lose everything''
''But you wouldn't'' I replied
''Because you're a greedy bitch and you would do anything to keep your job, which is not to mention primarily run by Mario's older brother''''Oh Bravo Durm'' She clapped.
I gave her a stern look before exiting the room. I felt sick to my stomach, I knew that Ann-kathrin would do anything to stay at the top, even if it meant hurting people that thought they meant something to her. I headed towards the exit, taking a whif of the cold, fresh night time air that cooled me down. I needed to be somewhere quiet, somewhere I could be alone.

Alexandra's POV
I did nothing all day. I watched TV, surfed the Internet and ate. That was what my life consisted of. But what I really looked forward to was night. Where I could take a whif of the cold, night time air that cooled me down. I liked to go somewhere quiet, somewhere I could be alone...
