Delilah's POV James and I have been together since we were 15. We've been through each other's highs and lows together. Tonight Sheffield United need 3 points to reach the Premier League. I am so proud of my boy. We share an 11 month old baby boy. Albie James McAtee. He is the light of our lives. James' parents and brother, John had come down for the game. They insisted they were staying in a hotel even though we said that they could stay at our house. I set on wearing a black cropped top, green cargos and a cropped puffer coat. I also did my hair into a neat half up and half down, leaving the front two pieces out and putting gel on the ponytail. I dressed Albie in a blue sleep suit with angel wings on the back and a blue pram suit. I was so excited. I gave Albie some food before we left to keep him settled throughout the match. I met up with his family before the match so we could go and wish him good luck together. We headed to the ground and stood at the bottom of the stands watching him warm up. The players came and warmed up, doing some running exercises right in front of us. When Albie clocked James he began giggling. Bless him, James had his game face on. He'd been so nervous all day. He was distant but cuddly and didn't leave my side until he left for the game. Tommy Doyle, his best friend who had come with him on loan tapped him when they finished the running exercises and pointed towards us. James looked up and his smile grew so big. His face literally lit up. It was the first smile I'd seen on his face all day. He ran over, instantly wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing the top of my head. I just knew then how much it meant to him that we were there for him. His mum took a picture of the three of us, that I'd post later on. Before we knew it, it was time for him to go back to the changing rooms to get ready for kick off. We got to our seats ready for kick off, I was so nervous for him and it wasn't me playing the game!
Half time soon came around and the scoreline was 1-1 and James scored!! I was so proud and still am. The game finished 4-1! Sheffield United had been promoted!!!!! Families of the players were immediately invited onto the pitch for post match celebrations. We headed down to the pitch, I headed straight into his arms with a loving kiss. His parents and brother trailing behind with Albie. We walked round the pitch clapping the fans, James holding Albie. He lifted Albie into the air in front of the Kop stand, I had to take a photo. His mum also took one of us walking around the pitch, I immediately set it as my phone wallpaper. We celebrated in the private bar after the pitch celebrations before his parents and John took Albie home. We headed into Sheffield bars and clubs since they opened knowing that fans would be celebrating.
