y/n's POV
The flight to London was eventful to say the least. We're playing the second leg of the semi-finals against Chelsea today at Stamford Bridge. We had a tough loss at home and I felt like it was all my fault. Being back in London made me realize how much I missed Arsenal. I love Barcelona but I miss the girls. I'm currently walking with Mapi to do our pitch inspection ritual. I jump the line as I walk onto the pitch with Mapi. We slowly make our way to the center of the pitch.
"So..." Mapi says.
"So?" I ask confused.
"How are you feeling about the match today?" She asks.
"Well a bit worried since you won't be playing... having you as a center back makes me feel better but Ingrid has been doing great on defense." I say.
"Si Ingrid has been doing very very good. I'm very proud of her." Mapi says as she looks at her girlfriend who's on the sidelines talking to Frido and Aitana.
"How's the knee?" I ask as we slowly crouch down to pat the grass.
"I'm doing well... hopefully will be back before the season ends." She says.
"Si so we can play together one last time." I say.
"What do you mean one last time?" Mapi asks me.
"I haven't really thought about it... but I miss Arsenal." I say. "Don't get me wrong I love Barcelona and I love the girls but once a gooner always a gooner."
"Have you talked to Alexia?" Mapi asks. I look up and see Alexia sandwiched between Jenni and Irene. I shake my head no.
"I have to and if it goes the way I think it will I will probably be going back to North London." I say.
"You noticed right?" Mapi asks.
"Noticed what?" I ask trying to avoid what she's hinting at.
"Alexia..." Mapi says slowly.
"Looking at Jenni like she's in love... I noticed in Ibiza but it really dawned on me during the Fifa's Best Ceremony." I say.
"I'm sorry y/nn." Mapi says on behalf of her best friend.
"Nothing to be sorry about Mapi... I like her but if she can be happier with Jenni then I want that for her. She's one of my best friends and she deserves happiness." I say.
"You deserve it too. Go talk to Leah when you go back to Arsenal. Fix things... Leah's your soulmate." Mapi says.
"Yeah... I'm just worried Leah's moved on." I say.
"Leah looks at you like you're the only person in the room. Her eyes sparkle when she sees you and she's got a permanent small smile on her face and Williamson never smiles." Mapi says.
"She can be a grouch." I say laughing a bit.
"Now that we sorted that we have to talk to the pitch." Mapi says making me laugh harder.
"Por supuesto." I say.
"Hola pitch de Stamford Bridge." Mapi says.
"Por favor... let us score today and go onto the final. Picture it now back to back Champions League winners." I say.
"Let Aita score a worldie and show Chelshit that Barca is on top." Mapi says patting the grass with a smile.
"Vamos." I say patting the grass.
"Did the grass get your message?" Ale asks walking up to Mapi and I with Ingrid.
"Si!" Mapi says.
"We will win today!" We both say confidently.
"Hey y/n!" I hear and I turn and see Hannah waving at me and Millie and Niamh walking with her.
"Hey girls." I say.
"Ready for the match?" Millie asks me.
"Born ready, you won't win today." I say.
"I think we will." Niamh says.
"No chance." Alexia says. I watch Millie and Niamh look at Alexia who is now standing extremely close to me.
"Well we beat you in Barca." Niamh says and I look at her with a you fucked up shut your mouth look. I see Ale narrow her eyes and stare down my national teammate. I slowly snake my arm around Alexia's waist in an attempt to calm her down.
"Well we will see on the pitch today." I say. "Come on Ale."
Alexia walks angrily but glued to my side back to the sideline where we meet Mapi and Ingrid who were waiting for us.
"They're going to lose." Ale says.
"Yes they will babe." I say with a small smile.Leah's POV
"Hurry up Leah we're going to be late to the game!" Wally yells from my living room. I can't decide what to wear. I'm going to support bestie boo Keira but I really just want to see y/n. Keira gave me a Barcelona jersey but I told her she'd have to kill me before I wear anything but Arsenal colors so I'm conflicted on what outfit I should wear to the match. Lia is wearing a Barcelona jersey as she promised Mariona she would. I decided to wear a simple outfit, black cargos and a white sweater.
