Forbidden Love- Leah Williamson

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Maeve

It was game day and I had spent my evening thinking about Leah. After my lesson and I got back to the hotel I couldn't help but lay there and just think about what happened.

I had rode her in a car, in public.

I had never been so sexual with anyone, not the way I had been with Leah. She brought a side out to me that I had never seen before, I didn't know who I was right now. But I kind of liked it, I was having regular sex and it was doing me wonders.

I felt happier, I also knew I was falling deeply and truly in love with Leah Williamson. The one girl I couldn't have, the girl I knew I shouldn't want.

Skye would go crazy when she found out, the worst part is I don't see this ending. I knew that it would come out soon enough, I was just waiting for the avalanche to hit me. I just didn't want Skye to be mad at Leah, I didn't want her to blame Leah.

It was me, I wanted her and I had pursued her as much as she had with me. In fact I wanted her so badly, I always had.

"Why are you so cheerful?" Skye asks as I meet her in the lobby. We were all going together to the game, which meant I would have to watch everything that I did.

I couldn't stare at Leah for too long, I couldn't smile too much at her. Skye would pick up on it very quickly, she was already watching us both and seeing us together would give things away.

If I was being honest to Skye, the reason I was so cheerful was because of her best friend.

"Can I not be happy?" I shoot right back at her and I watch Sophie giggle at my come back.

Skye just rolls her eyes at me before heading towards the door, leaving me and Sophie alone. I turn to her with a smile on my face, she knew exactly why I was so cheerful.

In fact she was the only one who knew.

"You with her last night?" she asks me and I physically cannot wipe the smile off of my face. I think my expression showed everything I needed to say, I had spent the evening with her.

I also wanted to spend every waking second with her.

"Yeah" I beam. I had never smiled this much in my entire life. I really didn't know how unhappy I was with Emily, not until I had Leah.

She had never once commented on my weight, not once has she tried to make me feel bad about myself. She just brought me up, she had called me beautiful more in the one month that we had been messing around than Emily had in a year.

"You look so happy" Sophie coos at me as her hands come to my shoulders. I cant help but giggle at her, I was happy.

I haven't been this happy in a long time.

"I am"

"Ignore Skye, tell her when you're ready"

"I just hope she doesn't find out before we tell her, I think she'd lose her mind"

Being stood in the friends and family section was an out of body experience. I had never imagined to be this girl that stood there looking at the captain, knowing that she was the girl that I was falling in love with.

Knowing how badly she wanted it, knowing that she wanted to win so badly.

I wanted to be there, to be the first person she hugged when she won. I just wanted her to succeed.

"She's doing well" Skye says as we watch the lionesses wrap up the game.

I held my hands over my mouth as I watched the last few seconds of the clock tick down.

My mind was with her, all I could think about was her. She had invaded my brain like some foreign object into my body, I couldn't shake her no matter what I tried to do. I could think about her all day and not get bored or lose anything to think about.

"She's doing so well" I say back quietly, I couldn't take my eyes off of her.

Skye and I don't talk about Leah much more, I knew I showed too much care right now. I knew my reactions weren't normal for someone who's just a friend. I also knew that Skye was suspicious of us. I didn't want to give us away, but I couldn't help but react to every move that was made on the pitch.

They did it, the made it through to the next round.

I was so proud of her, when the team came over to the friends and family section, I had to fight the urge in my body to run over to her and tell her how proud I was of her.

I waited for her to come over to us, I could see her mind working overtime. She didn't know if she should come over to be first, or if it was too obvious. So she went to Skye.

Skye embraced her in a hug and I stood by her side waiting for her to pull me in close. So I could smell her, so my body could be close to her once again. Like it had been last night, our bodies moved against one anothers.

They were made for each other.

"Well done Leah" I say as she pulls me in for a moment. It was only a small moment, but it was enough for me to understand what she was saying.

"Thank you Maeve" she breaths out before moving on from me.

It was so hard not to kiss her, when her face was so close to me. I just wanted her, there was no one I wanted more than her.

Fuck

I wasn't falling anymore, I was in love.

I am in love with Leah Williamson.
