I'm supposed to hate you

how it all started

Keira fucked up. She knew that. When she made that comment she already told Lucy that she was interested in her, she told the defender that she liked her the night before the conversation to be exact.

Keira was sitting in bed in her and georgia's apartment, it's late at night and she's texting endlessly with lucy, as usual.

Something their teammates know nothing about.

The girls have been talking for hours and hours every night but both are too scared to talk in public because of the immediate suspicion their teammates will have on them.

But particularly this night was different from the others.

The pair had been flirting back and forth a little for just over a week now but tonight they were both very flirty and that's when it happened, keira's confession.

They were talking about love, how cliché.

'i just don't get how it happens when you fall for peoples looks, i mean yeah it's nice if your partner is pretty but that's probably the least important part about loving someone' the defender typed out.

'well i fell for you when you just trained in the rain for 2 hours so i definitely didn't fall for your looks, although you're pretty beautiful when you aren't all sweaty' keira texted back, she wasn't really realising what she just said, the ginger thought she was just making a non harmful joke.

A call request came in on the midfielders screen.

Confused, but also really happy to hear the defenders voice, she accepted the request.

'do you mean that keira?'

'what do you mean lucy? Do i mean what?'

' what you just said, about me'

Keira went back into their chat and read the last text she said again, when she noticed she felt her cheeks burn up.

'oh fuck, I'm sorry lucy'

'me to keira'

' you to what?

'i fell for you too, but not only because of your absolutely stunning face but i just fell in love with you'

Keira was speechless

'Should we talk about this tomorrow after training?' The midfielder asked, still in shock.

'alright kei'

'goodnight lucy, can't wait for tomorrow'

'me 2 kei, bye love'

' bye beautiful'

Keira shut off her phone after that, setting it down on her nightstand to charge but she couldn't sleep. She spent the night tossing and turning and finally got some sleep deep in the night.

For lucy it was a different case, lucy went to sleep quite quickly. Finally getting some good night sleep since she figured out her feelings for keira.

The next day both of them were in an awful happy mood.

Even when Georgia ate the last bit of keira her favourite cereal that morning keira wasn't bothered in the slightest bit, only her happy mood didn't last long.

Only until about 3 o clock that midday, lunchtime.

We all know what happened at lunchtime.

After that both the girls were grumpy and mad at everyone who even asked them to pass them the salt or something.

And it's not like Keira didn't try to fix it, the opposite actually, she kept texting lucy if she still wanted to talk that evening. No response.

After about 30 texts 7 missed calls and 2 hours later  the ginger decided that she was going to stop by her house.

Keira was grateful that Steph asked Georgia to come early to her house to set up for team night, so she wouldn't be asked why she was leaving the house so suddenly.

She put on her coat grabbed her keys and went to the defenders house.

After 3 knocks the door opened.

'what do you want keira' the defender asked, not amused thst keira showed up to her house in the middle of her getting ready for the night

'I wanted to talk to you, you should know after the 30 texts i sent you, which you just ignored like i didn't just tell you that i liked you yesterday'

'im sorry keira but I'm not in the mood to talk, I'll see you tonight'

Oh yeah right, tonight, team night.

I guess we all also remember what happened at team night.

Lucy didn't mean tl be that mean to keira, she wanted her to keep her arm around her but she needed to stay strong and show keira that it wasn't just fixed

Lucy was one of the first to leave stephs and drive home, what she didn't notice was keira leaving at about the same time.

Keira did what she needed to do, she followed lucy to her house.

When they arrive lucy, like normal, got out of her car and and went inside her house.

Keira stayed in her car for a couple More minutes until she finally got the courage to go up to the defenders door.

She knocked on her door a couple times but no one opened.

She heard Lucy moving inside but she didn't open the door

'come on luce please, open the door'

' just go away keira, i don't want to speak to you'

'please'

'ugh fine'

Keira, surprised that it worked, hadn't thought about what she was going to do now.

Lucy opened the door, looked at keora for a second and then stepped aside so keira could get in.

The ginger silently stepped in and got her shoes off before she walked into the living room.

'i'm sorry' the ginger confessed 'i shouldn't have said that to Georgia, but i need you to know that i was joking, g figured out that i like you and she's constantly teasing me about it'

'oh' was all the defender could say after that 'im sorry about acting like this and not talking it out, i was being a child, sorry'

'its alright luce'

They were both still standing in the livingroom, so lucy decided to go in for a hug, they stood there for what felt like hours, just hugging eachother.

After some more minutes they broke the hug, but because they're still standing very close lucy takes the opportunity to put her hands at keira her cheeks.

Keira immediately leaned into the touch.

Lucy noticed that the ginger briefly closed her eyes, to just enjoy the moment.

'keira?'

'yes luce'

'will you maybe be just uhm my girlfriend please'

'yes lucy ofcourse i want to be your girlfriend'

'wow I can't believe it, I'm the luckiest person on earth now oh my godd'

'well luce, that's not possible because I'm that already but nice try'

--

Keira and lucy decided to keep this hating eachother act up until they're both ready to tell the girls

It's hard, it really is but they made a list of 'rules'

- nothing we say is true/is what we really think of eachother

-NEVER getting phisical in the slightest bit

-only telling people of we both agree the person should know

-no affection at work, even if we are in private

Well... The last rule was already broken, but in this case, it didn't matter.
