No Escape From You ~ Katie McCabe x Y/N (WOSO)

Chapter 9

(Buzzing about yesterday's win for Arsenal, what a comeback. From the amazing welcome back to the emirates for legend, Jordan Nobbs, (Take notes "Man united fans")

(The reception, love and support for Beth Mead's amazing return which actually made me cry like a child. Her beautiful assist to Lessi's goal that won them the game, and of course, Katie's banger of a goal, overall, yesterday was a good day to be a gooner)

Also really hoping that Mapi León is okay after that serious head injury in last nights game🤕

Also, thank you for 1K reads! really do appreciate it. 🫶🏼

Anyyyyway, let's get to it.

Y/N's POV

December 25th.

So far, christmas has been good, we opened only a few gifts this morning, we're waiting to have our dinner first before opening the rest.

Of course I was most looking forward to dinner more than anything or anyone, i'm starving if i'm being honest.

Myself and Katie have since gone out for more kick abouts and walks around the area since our little "meeting" the other day.

We've gotten to know eachother fairly well from the past few days, if we weren't out together, we were frequently messaging eachother. She's actually alright if I must be honest.

I've learned that she actually is a lot different off the pitch compared to being on the pitch, literally, she is like a whole different human being.

I've learned she's got 10 siblings, all of them have played sports, her brother plays in the League of Ireland Premier Division.

Her younger sister, Lauryn also plays football, the four of us actually met up yesterday for a kick about in the park, and a two versus two, it's safe to say, talent does run in the McCabe family.

Finally, dinner is ready for us all, we all sit around the two tables, one for the adults, the other for the kids, of course i'm sat at the kids one with the rest of my cousins.

We all chat amongst ourselves about random things that come to mind as we tuck into our christmas dinner.

Once we'd all eventually finished our dinner, none of us could move at all, we were all grateful to our grandma for making a class dinner, as always, but none of us could move from our positions for a long while.

After our dinner had slowly started to settle down, we all made our way into the living room to sit and relax a bit more comfortably before we finished of our christmas with the rest of the presents.

We all pass around the presents to whose they were for, putting them into piles next to us as we all opened them one by one.

Most of mine consisted of being football related stuff, new tracksuits, shirts, socks, footballs, a Wales shirt, an England shirt and an Ireland shirt.

The Wales one being from me welsh side of the family, England one from the english side and of course the Ireland one being from my irish side, so i've got them all, which I equally love.

My favourite things being two new pairs of boots, a light blue pair of adidas predators, and blue and black nike mercurials.

I'm quickly obsessed with these already and am already very much looking forward to wearing these beauties.

I thank my grandma massively for them as I inspect every detail of my new boots very carefully and intensely as everyone else chatters amongst themselves about god knows what, i'm far too invested in looking at me new boots to listen or acknowledge everyone else around me and their conversations.
