My Captain (y/n x Leah Williamson)

Chapter 32 - Bienvenidos

Y/n's POV
The plane ride was rough, I cried my eyes out. Leah not being there to hold me was a change that I never wanted to experience. I look like shit and I know it. I'm hoping I can shower quickly and freshen up before meeting with the Barca staff to sign my loan contract. I exit the plane and pick up my bags. I get a text and I look at my phone quickly.

A/N I will be typing in English but everything italicized will be Spanish

I finish typing when I feel someone's arms wrap around my waist. I turn around and see Ale.
"Hola Ale." I say exhaling deeply. I hug her back and the older girl looks at me with worry in her eyes.
"Hola y/nn. How are you? Actually stupid question..." Alexia says making me laugh a little.
"I miss her so much Ale it hurts." I say.
"I know... you're in good hands here you have me, Mapi, Lucy and Keira. You remember Ona yes?" Alexia asks.
"Yea from the World Cup Final." I say.
"She just transferred from Manchester United so you two can be good friends since you're both the new kids!" Ale says with a smile. We walk to her Cupra and she begins driving to her apartment thankfully.
"We're stopping at my apartment. Ona is there and she signs her contract today as well. She is staying with me until she gets her living situation sorted. Jona likes to make sure we all have someone to lean on in times of need so we all share an apartment with another player. Mapi is with Ingrid and Lucy with Keira, Patri is with Pina and Bruna with Jana. I live with Tana. I think Jona will place you with Ona. All of us live in the same apartment complex and you and Ona will most likely be neighbors with Aitana and I." Ale says.
"You must have a big apartment if Ona, Aitana and I will be staying there." I say.
"Well Ona has been sharing a bed with Aitana and no they aren't together. You can take my room and I'll take the couch." Ale says.
"Nonsense Ale you sleep in your bed." I argue.
"We can discuss this later. We are here, come so we can get you ready... you need a shower." Ale says and I roll my eyes.
"I just got dumped and am moving to another country cut me some slack." I say getting out of the car and grabbing my bags.
"At least you can speak Spanish unlike Keira." Ale says chuckling as we go up the elevator to her apartment.
"Maybe we should speak English so you can practice your English captain." I say teasingly. Alexia scoffs as she opens her door and I walk in to her apartment and see Ona and Aitana sitting on the couch.
"Hi, I'm Aitana!" Aitana says standing up from the couch and walking over to me. The smaller girl shakes my hand making me chuckle a bit at her formalities.
"Hey, it's good to see you again." Ona says next to Aitana with her thick Spanish accent.
"Nice to meet you Aitana and hey Ona." I say.
"Are we speaking English because of y/n?" Aitana asks.
"No that stupid bitch knows how to speak Spanish." Alexia complains.
"We're speaking English for this one." I say laughing grabbing Alexia.
"I see... Ale you could work on your English." Ona says.
"Ona... I will kick you out." Ale warns.
"No kicking out my best friend!" Aitana says.
"Y/nn go get ready we have to leave in an hour." Ale says.
"Here I'll show you the bathroom." Aitana says and she walks me to a room. "This is Ale's room and the bathroom is right here you can get ready here. I'm pretty sure Ale will have something cooked for you when you're done. I'm glad your here and I can't wait to play with you." Aitana says smiling.
"I can't wait to play with you either Aitana." I say.
"You can call me Tana." She says.
I got get ready, I shower for twenty minutes and I get dressed in ten I put on some dress pants and a black shirt and grab a blazer. I put on a pair of dunks and I walk into the kitchen where Ale and Tana are talking. I see Ona eating at the table wearing a similar outfit to mine.
"Y/nn here eat." Ale says handing me a plate. I grab it and sit next to Ona.
"Okay vamanos chicas!" Aitana yells from the door. Ona and I laugh before putting our plates in the sink. We rush downstairs and Ale starts honking at Ona and I from her car.
"Jeez Ale is not patient." Ona says.
"Capitana likes to be on time." I say.
"She's not evening signing a contract." Ona says and I laugh a bit. Ona and I sit in the back of Alexia's Cupra and she turns and looks at us.
"Belts on let's go!" She says. The drive to the Barcelona training center was short. Ale parks and we all get out of the car. Ona and I get ushered into a conference room where our contracts have been drafted.
We sit down and Ona is first.
"Okay Ona first of all welcome back home and we will be signing a three year contract for 450,000 Euros a year. Just sign here we will take a few pictures. Are you good with the number 22?" He asks.
"Yes thank you, happy to be home." Ona says with a smile. I watch Ona sign her contract and cameras flash as she does so. Ona gets ushered out the room to go do more media pictures and I am left alone.
"Is English okay?" He asks and I nod. "Okay y/n first of all welcome to Barca I am so glad you've decided to accept our offer. As discussed you'll be here on loan for a season. Your salary is 500,000 Euros and you have the option to permanently sign with the club at the end of your loan term."
"Sounds good." I say shakily. I was never good with change and this is a big change. I miss Leah so much and I want to go home but I need to heal.
"I know this is a big change but I have no doubts that you will perform well at Barca and our players cannot wait to play with you. Alexia speaks very highly of you and after your performance at the World Cup we are lucky to have you." He says as a I sign the contract. I see the flashes of the cameras taking pictures. I look up and give them my best smile I can at the moment.
"Sandra Panos has departed from the club so you will receive jersey number 1 if that is okay with you." He says and I just nod. He shakes my hand before I get ushered to the media room. I walk into the room and see Ona getting her picture taken, she's decked out in the new Barca home kit and the smile on her face is everything.
"Hey y/n welcome to Barca please go change into this kit really quickly for some pictures and then you are free to go. Jona will be in contact with you about your new apartment and car soon." Some lady says handing me a green goalkeeper kit. I don't say anything I just nod yes, I feel like if I attempt to speak I will burst out into tears. This is a fever dream never did I expect myself to be in this situation. I get dressed in the kit and I walk back into the media room.
"Looking good y/ln!" Aitana says. I look at the shorter girl who is standing next to Alexia who hands me a pair of goalkeeper gloves.
"A gift from the girls and I." She says handing them to me. For the first time since the breakup I have a little genuine smile on my face. I look at gloves noticing that they picked the exact pair I always use and they're custom. They put my last name and the flag of England.
"Gracias." I say giving Ale and Tana a hug.
"The Barca crest suits you." I hear someone say and si turn around and see Ona with a small smile on her face.
"These colors suit you, you look like you're at home." I say I watch Ona's eyes light up.
"Si, I'm finally home." She says.
"Just a few pictures y/n then you are free to go." The camera man says. I head over and for about fifteen minutes there's constant camera flashes. The girls are cheering me on especially Ale as she knows that this is not easy. I thought I would die in Arsenal colors but plans change. We wrap up the media shoot and the camera man managers to forward me a few of the pictures so I can post about my loan. Ona and I receive some of the training gear before we leave. As Ale is driving us back to her apartment I take out my phone and make my two posts. The one about going on loan to Barca and my departure from Arsenal. I choose two pictures of me kissing the Conti cup trophy and the other was after my clean sheet on derby day. My finger hovers over the post button.
"Change is good y/nn, this is not the end of your time at Arsenal. They still love you." Ona says reassuring me and I exhale before posting it. In two minutes my phone starts buzzing like crazy and I see a notification that Arsenal WFC and Barca have also announced my loan.
"Let's take it day by day." Ale says. I make eye contact with her in her rear view mirror and nod. Ona places her hand on my knee and says "We are with you y/n every step of the way."
