Girls like girls | Elisa de Almeida - fanfic ♡ (english)

six ♡

Élisa didn't expect to get such a quick response that day, and that's how they started chatting casually.

celinelovesl: Hi Élisa, yes, I still need the jersey, otherwise, how can I support them properly?

elisadealmeida5: Haha, you're right, okay, then I'll get it and let you know when I have it.

celinelovesl: Yes, thank you so much <3

De Almeida left Celine on "seen," just to appear a bit tougher, according to her.

As the days passed, both kept an eye on each other's Instagram stories. The defender noticed that Celine didn't post anything with Hervé and that her stories only revolved around the places she frequented and her daily activities, which usually included activities like yoga, having coffee, and reading books. Unlike Élisa, Celine didn't get much personal information, as she mostly posted about football. However, Celine constantly wondered, "Why am I so concerned about her?"

The French players had a couple of days off before the next round of Nations League matches and their upcoming travels.

"Do you know what you're going to do?" Geyoro asked her two main companions.

"I think I'll take the opportunity to rest and buy some things for my apartment," Karchaoui said.

Élisa pondered on what she would do.

"I think I'll go out with Océane," Karchaoui and Geyoro looked surprised.

"You don't really like that woman," Karchaoui said, "stop giving her false hope. Besides, imagine if she gets signed to PSG someday, the drama that will ensue."

De Almeida started laughing. Her situation with Bordeaux player Océane Hurtré wasn't as serious as her teammates imagined. A few months ago, Océane had started dropping very direct hints that she was in love with Élisa. Still, the defender was clear that she wasn't looking for anything serious. Despite that, Hurtré continued to invite her out for casual encounters.

"She knows I'm not looking for anything serious," Élisa said, "and she agreed to go out with me casually."

"She's cute," Geyoro said, "why don't you take her seriously?"

Sakina started laughing.

"Don't you see she's in love with Hervé's girlfriend?" she said, hitting Élisa on the shoulder.

"I'm not in love," Élisa said, laughing, "she'll fall for me on her own, you'll see."

Élisa got out of the shower and picked up her phone.

Océane: So, we meet at 7 pm in the center of Paris :)

Élisa: Yes, see you then. Remember your sweater this time haha.

Océane: If I forget, can I borrow yours again like last time? :p

They were referencing their last meeting, but Élisa decided not to respond to the last message. She felt Océane was forgetting their agreement about keeping things casual.

A package arrived at Élisa's apartment, causing Océane to disappear from her thoughts. Upon opening it, she realized it was the jersey she had requested from the team for Celine. She opened it and saw her name on the back along with her number, which made her smile. She decided to take a photo to send to Celine.

elisadealmeida5: Look what just arrived.

celinelovesl: My jersey! Yay! When can we meet so you can give it to me?
