"Could you just tell them I can't come?" I ask Tayma through the phone as i carry a bowl of soup up the stairs for my mom. 

"Where are you though?" Tayma asks. Gio invited us to go out for dinner.

"I'm at my parents place, moms really sick again." I sigh. "Dads paranoid that her cancer came back, but the hospitals completely booked and the closest hospital which actually gives good treatment is like 2 hours away and Dads refusing to drive there." 

"Girl, I ain't going to this frickin dinner if you're here struggling. I'm coming over." Tayma huffs, not listening to my answer and cutting the call immediately. 

This stupid girl. I sit by the bed when my mom is laying down and slowly shake her. She wasn't waking up.

"Mom?" I call out. "Mom?!" My voice gets louder as I shake her more aggressively. Her eyes shoot open as she turns to look at me and a breath of relief escapes my lips. 

-JUDES POV-

"Hell no, we're not going out for dinner if she's in trouble." Gio says. 

"Seriously you guys. She just needs me so I can't make it." Tayma tries to reassure. 

"Yeah, plus we met these girls like a week ago, why are they suddenly part of the group?" A teammate of mine, Marco Reus, points out.

"Um, rude. But true." Tayma shrugs. 

"Fuck off, Marco. These two girls are far better than your ass. You're shit at football anyways, get outta here." I shove him away. Tayma gapes at me and i just chuckle before slinging an arm around Marco. "Just jokes." 

"Um, anyways." Erling side eyes me while I flip him off aggressively. "Didn't you say she has like 4 younger siblings who are ranging from the ago of 4-10. Who's gonna take care of them? Gio and I can go over to her place and cook dinner for her family and you and Jude can take her and her mom to the hospital."

"Guys, stop. You're so extra-" Tayma sighs. 

"Nah, we're gentlemen. Not Marco though." I chuckle. "Sounds like a plan to me."

"Alright, the rest of the boys can go for dinner. Marcos paying for being such a dick." Gio says, patting Marcos chest. 

Marco just rolls his eyes as the rest of the team walk away, leaving Tayma, Erling, Gio and I together. 

"We can take Judes car and Gio's cuz they're the biggest." Erling offers. 

(ik jude cant drive but for the sake of this story he can.)

"Sure." I shrug, pulling out the keys to my range rover. "I'll take Erling with me." I wink at Tayma who knows that I'm trying to set her up with Gio. "Scared Taymas gonna rip my head off."

"let's go then!" Gio chirps as he leads Tayma to his car and opens the door for her. I should take notes, he's a true gentleman. 

-TIME SKIP-

Holy shit, her house is huge. 

"Alright, I'm gonna go in and ask (Y/n) to come out. Jude can you help bring her mom down?" Tayma requests and I nod.

The second the front door swings open, screams can be heard from everywhere. I look around to see 2 kids, probably 5 and 7 throwing lego at each other, a 10 year old willingly stepping on lego and a 9 year old trying to calm down their siblings because we walked in. On the other side of the house, the TV was running and a white man was sitting down, watching it. That's probably her dad. Looks like a douche.
