y/n's POV
The final... Barcelona vs Lyon. Alexia and Jenni are back together and I couldn't be happier for them. Turns out Jenni and I enjoy pestering Alexia together along with Mapi and she has grown accustomed to all three of us annoying her together. We are on the bus to the final and I am sitting across from Ale and Jenni.
"Y/nn?" Jenni says.
"Hm?" I say.
"Have you talked to Leah?" Jenni asks.
"She's going to be at the match today." I say.
"But you haven't talked to her?" Ale chimes in.
"I haven't. We've been busy preparing for the final." I say.
"Talk to her though." Jenni says. "If we win you better find her and invite her to join us on the pitch."
"No more bets. My hair is going to be pink if we win today." I say.
"So will mine!" Ale says.
"You'll look hot." Jenni says to Ale and I roll my eyes at them. "Both of you will."
Time flies we arrive at the stadium and I do my prematch ritual with Mapi. We talk to the grass and then head to the changing rooms. Warm ups I felt good. I feel ready. Soon enough we are lined up in the tunnel getting ready for kick off. The match kicks off and tensions are high. Both sides want this trophy and neither side is letting up. At the half it's still 0-0 it isn't until the 63rd minute when Mariona assists Aitana who scores making the score 1-0 in favor of Barca. For the rest of the match Lyon fights hard and dirty to equalize but it's all over in stoppage time when Alexia gets subbed on. Claudia passes the ball to Alexia who scores a beautiful goal it was something written in the stars.It's the last play of the game. Lyon has a corner, even Endler is in the box. The ball gets sent in and I watch it soar over the defenders. I jump and grab the ball. I feel my body get pushed as I am in the air and I land. That's when I feel it... a pop.
Leah's POV
Laura, Jill, Lia, Viv, Beth and I are watching the last play of the match. I am wearing a Barcelona jersey but not the kepler kit because I knew that would cause way too much speculation and y/nn and I haven't even really started talking again. Lyon sends in the ball on a corner and I watch it soar into the box. Y/n jumps up and secures the ball but Renard nudges her a bit harshly and I watch y/n land on the pitch. The whistle blows and y/n is still laying on the pitch.
"She's holding her knee." I say worried.
"That fall was not good." Jill says.
"She's in pain." Viv says.
"Do you think she did her knee?" Beth asks.
"I hope not." I say.
"Come on Leah, Kei said we can join them on the pitch. Are you joining us Jill and Lia?" Laura asks.
"Yes." Both girls say.
"Go check up on your girl Le? I'm sure she will be okay." Beth says and I smile at my friend before following Laura.Alexia's POV
The final whistle blows and we've did it. We've won the Champions League. Jenni immediately runs over to me embracing me in a hug.
"We did it Frozen!" Jenni says.
"I love you Jenni." I say kissing her cheek.
"Te amo Ale." She says with a smile.
I look around the pitch and see y/nn still laying on the pitch with the ball in her hand but one hand is clutching her right leg.
"Jenni... y/n she's hurt!" I say and I run over to my best friend. I get to her side and soon enough the whole team is around y/nn. Celebrations haven't commenced as we are shielding y/nn from the cameras. I crouch by her side and I grab her hand.
"What happened?" I ask.
"I got bumped in the air by Renard. I landed funny... Ale... it's my knee." She says and I feel my heart drop.
"It can't be your ACL." I say in denial.
"I've done my knee. I can feel it Ale. It's over." She says.
"The physio is coming." Jenni says.
"It'll be okay. You'll be okay." I say to y/nn.
The physio comes in with the stretcher but y/nn refuses to get in the stretcher. She manages to limp off the pitch with the help of the medical staff.
The whole team stands in shock at what just happened. Lyon players as well are shocked by y/nn's last minute injury.
"Alexia I'm sorry I didn't mean to bump into her." Wendie comes up to me saying.
"It's football. Just pray it's not her ACL." I say. I want to blame her but I know she didn't mean to injure y/nn.
Jenni comes to my side and gives me a hug.
"We are going to wait for her before we lift the trophy." I say.
