I love my life. I love going to work everyday and getting to fly helicopters everyday. I've always dreamed about. And what makes it even better is that I have amazing friends. Not just friends from my job, but friends all over Manchester. Including my two best friends in the entire world, Alessia Russo and Ella Toone. But not many people knew that, as they are pro footballers and I want to make sure they are comfortable around me and for me to not be bombarded with questions about them.
Today I was off to watch them play a game against Arsenal. Lessi has got me tickets in the family area, so I was excited to be closer to the pitch to watch them.
When they walked onto the pitch they turned and both smiled brightly when they saw me sitting in the stands. I smile and wave at them, before my eyes shift to a brunette standing next to Lessi. I had seen her a few times and her the girls talk about her. Ona Batlle, Spanish defender with incredible talent. But I know her as the hot one in the team. She's so stunning, I can't believe my friends get to work with her and haven't become gay yet, no offence Alessia and Ella, but damn.
I must've been staring, because Ona starts to scan the crowd, and we make eye contact for a second, before she continues looking at the stands. Fuck she's breathtaking.
The game goes well, with Lessi scoring a goal and winning it for United. The whole time I was cheering and screaming "that's my fucking best friend!"
I watch as they shake hands with the Arsenal girls, giving a few of them a hug, before making their way over to the stands to see with families. Ella and Alessia come skipping up to the stands, waving for me to come down. As soon as I do, they're pulled be towards them, so I'm leaning across the bar, as they hug me tightly.
"You came!" Lessi said smiling.
I laugh and pull back from me.
"I got free tickets from some chick." I shrug.
We continue talking, and as Ella goes to turn twist her back, she spots someone.
"ONA!" She shouts, flagging her over.
WHAT! She's bringing Ona over here!? They don't know about my crush, but still! AHHHH
Ona makes her way over to us, as Ella brings her in for a hug, while Alessia is still talking to me.
"And then, bloody Leah decided...oh yeah Ona!" Lessi says as she sees Ona standing next to her.
"Hola." Ona smiles.
Fuck, that's a pretty smile.
"Oh Ona, you have to meet y/n." Lessi says pointing to me. "This is y/n, she's my best friend."
Ella interrupted her. "OUR best friend."
Lessi nods while rolling her eyes, "yes, yes, anyways.You need to meet her, as you're the last one to meet her and she comes everywhere with us."
Ona smiles and laughs slightly.
"Well, nice to me you y/n, I'm Ona." She says smiling up at me.
I smile and nod my head.
"Nice to meet you, sorry about these two. I'm sure you've already had enough of these two after only your short time here. Imagine how I feel after knowing them for 5 years."
Ona laughs as Ella scoffs playfully and shoves my shoulder.
"You love us." Lessi says smiling.
I just wink at her and laugh.
A few days have gone by and Ella and Alessia want me to come out for lunch with them and a few of their teammates.
"Guys I think that's over stepping. It's your teammates. They don't know me that well, I don't want to intrude." I say over the phone.
"Nonsense. We will pick you up in 10 minutes." Lessi says before hanging up the phone.
I sigh and quickly get changed into more suitable clothes and add some basic makeup.
By the time I was done, they were texting letting me know their here and waiting for me. I quickly lock up and jump in the car.
We turn up and find the others are already there waiting for us. Waiting for us was Millie, Ona, Ivana and Mary. They smile at us and we take a seat opposite them, me squished between Lessi and Ella, directly opposite Ona.
"Hey y/n! Long time no see." Mary says smiling widely.
I shrug and laugh.
"These two have been hiding me from you. They say you're trying to steal me." I laugh.
Alessia nods and wraps an arm around my shoulder.
"She is!" Alessia says huffing.
Mary and I just laugh more.
