Our game ended with a draw 1-1, but if you asked me we lost that match. I tried to keep my energy up despite my true feelings. Even in the post match interview, I remained positive but I was truly disappointed on the inside. But like my dad usually tells me, 'keep your head up even when it's hard to'

"Where's Ester?" Brahim asked as I stood with Cama and Vini. We were all ready to go back to the hotel. I just wanted to have a nice shower, rewatch the highlights then call it a night.

"No clue" I said, Cama and Vini both said the same.

"I haven't seen Chad around, is he still with the team?" Cama asked.

"Yeah, he was suspended but he's back now" Vini said, as he picked up his bag so we could walk to the bus.

"Why do you know that?" I questioned, honestly I didn't care much for the lad, so if I stopped seeing him I probably wouldn't notice until someone brought it to my attention.

"He wants to fuck Chad" Cama teased, which made me laugh.

"Exactly, why else is he keeping tabs on him?" I laughed.

"I don't find you guys funny," he said, laughing as well as he fanned us off.

As the bus came into view, I caught sight of Brielle. I never understood why she didn't bother to show up last night. When I texted her, I didn't receive a response either. I couldn't exactly show up at her room after a certain hour, especially with Ester as her roommate – I didn't want to run into her.

"How does Brielle manage to look so good in her uniform" Vini said looking at Brielle was busy checking things off on whatever she had on her clip board.

"Yeah, don't talk about her like that, mate," I said quickly, shooting him a look.

"Are you jealous?" Cama teased, and they both laughed, but I wasn't finding it amusing. At all.

"Wait, you and Brielle?" Cama asked, his tone filled with astonishment.

Vini raised an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in his eye. "The way you're defending her makes it seem like there's something going on."

I sighed, feeling a bit flustered. "Because something is going on."

Vini shrugged, "Well, if you say so. But I still think she looks damn good in that uniform."

"Mate, I'm serious. I'm not playing" I said stopping. They both stopped looked at each other then at me.

Cama's eyes widened in surprise. "Why didn't you tell us?"

I shrugged, feeling a bit sheepish. "Like I said it's fresh, ofcourse it's not going to be highlighted right now, nor do I expect it to get out there like that as yet."

Vini looked thoughtful for a moment before speaking. "Well, if you're serious about her, then I'll respect that. Sorry for joking around."

I nodded, appreciating his understanding. "Thanks, man. I know it's a bit out of the blue."

I couldn't deny it – Brielle did look incredible in her uniform. She's surrounded by horny footballers I'm sure every one of them already had that thought.
