It may not have officially been winter but that didn't stop the -5 degrees feel any warmer. You always said you liked the cold weather or at least you weren't bothered by it. Today was a true test of that.

Walking out for the pitch inspection you only have one thing on your mind or more specifically one person.

"It hasn't even been a week" Keira tries to tease you but fails because you don't bite.

"I don't care. I spend every day with her in Barcelona so when we're apart a day is like a week."

It was true. It didn't take much for you to miss Ingrid. You moved to Barcelona after the euros and quickly became friends with Ingrid. It stayed like that way until you won the Champions league. It was a night to be remember for more reason than one.

Lucy and Keira agreed to go with you to Ingrid as she was with Caro and Ada.

"Tell me why you, a Norwegian native, are wearing more layers than me?"

"Because I'm not a human heater" Ingrid opens your arms and makes herself comfy.

"Hello my love" you look down at her, fully disregarding the company around you.

"Are you nervous?" Ingrid asks as she sees a crack in your confident persona.

On game days you were serious, locked in and there was little anybody could do to steer you from this mindset. Ingrid however had the unexplainable ability to see through it and as she stands on the pitch in your arms she sees her girlfriend, not the England captain.

"About the game, of course not" you wink playfully "about what comes after, a little bit. I just want to make a good impression"

"Pull back your shots and maybe you will"

Ingrid knew you would never do as she asked so isn't surprised when she gets a scoff as her reply. The two of you stay together in each others arms for a few more minutes as you involve yourselves in the conversation between Lucy and Ada.

It was very well known that you hated wearing base layers but it was advised to put one on gor the game given that it might snow was forecast. That didn't stop you from removing the thermal layer within the first ten minutes when you saw their goalkeeper go down. At half time most of them put a second base layer on and an extra pair of gloves whereas you opted for a cup of tea instead.

The post match team huddle was one of the quickest in team history and the lap around the pitch that followed matched it. Only one or two England players remained on the pitch to thank the fans, you were one of them. Once the last photo was taken your attention shifted to a different kind of fan.

There she stood talking animatedly with two people who you recognised from the time Ingrid FaceTimed home whilst staying at your apartment.

"Y/N!" The younger boy, Ingrid's nephew you think, shouts.

"Look at you" Ingrid cannot believe you are standing next to her in the now -8 degrees, maybe even colder, in only shorts and a shirt. No base layers, no gloves, no coat "You're going to get a cold"

"You forget that I don't get sick, it's my superpower. Besides, I'll have you to keep me warm" you are millimetres away from kissing her when you are interrupted.

"Y/N, please can I have your shirt?"

"No"
"Yes"

Much to Ingrid's dismay you give her nephew your shirt. He takes his coat off and quickly puts your shirt on over Ingrid's. The smile on his face rivals the Cheshire cat's and you whisper in your girlfriend's ear that the look on his face makes it worth it.
