Eventually 6 o'clock comes round. I'm wearing black Jordan shorts and a brazil jersey.

Beth and viv says we can take the TV room as they would be going out for dinner.

I'm st on the couch, when I hear a knock on the door.

I jump off the couch, and practically run to the door. I open it and I'm met with leah.

"Hiya, come on in" I smile stepping aside letting leah come in

"Hey, thanks" she smiles

I close the door behind her before we walk into the kitchen.

"Do you want a drink?" I ask

"Ya please, what do you got" she asks

"Water, coke, beer" I say

"Mmm...I'll take a beer please" she says

"No problem" I say reaching into the fridge to get the beer.

I throw the beer can to her, before we make our way into the TV room. I sit down on the couch and leah sits beside me. There a gap between up, were not far apart but not too close either just a comfortable space.

"What do you want to watch?" I ask

"Katie keeps suggesting I should watch 'anyone but you'" she says

"Ya she's always letting me to watch it too, do you want to watch it?" I ask

"Ya might aswell"

I turn on anyone but you. But after a while We kinda lost interest in the movie, so we just kinda started talking about random things. Then food came up in the conversation causing both of us to get hungry.

"Will I order a pizza or something?" I ask

"Ya do please I'm starving, ill pay tho" she insisted

"Nuh uh your my guest" I shake my head

"No not happening I'm paying" she pushes

"No. That's it" I say

"How about we half" she says hoping to get her way

"Ugh. Fine" I give in

The pizza arrived 40 minutes later, we brought the pizza into the TV room, and again we just talked. It was easy to talk to leah. The conversation just flowed. I liked it. It was comfortable.

After we ate we brought the pizza box and empty beer cans out to the kitchen.

Leah sat up on the counter as I just crushed the can smaller letting me out them into the bin. As I was doing that leah breaks the comfortable silence.

"You know...your really good looking for your age"

I turn to look at her

"I mean your 22 you look 18, Lucia" she explains

I shake my head

"I might be 22 and look 18 but thr problem is...my past at real madrid" I pause
"Most people who I like think I just use them" I sigh leaning against the counter opposite leah.

"I know they probably would...but I don't care" she says

I look up to her.

I walk towards her, just stand infront of her.

"That's you leah. What about everyone else. What about everyone at arsenal. The media. The public. Everyone knows leah and not everyone doesn't care" I sigh

"I know and I cant change that but mabye i-" she stops

"You what?" I say confused

"Nothing" she says looking down at her feet

"Tell me leah" I say moving closer to her until I'm standing between her legs.

"I can't change people's thought but mabye I...er...mabye I can change..you for the better..." she says

It doesn't sound good but I know what she means. Atleast I hope it's what she means. Mabye she wants to change me by being with me, not using her. Being with her for her. Being with her because I like her.

I look at her. She already looking at me.

She might be up on the counter but I'm pretty tall so we are technically eye level.

I lick my lips. Her eyes look at my lips. I couldn't help myself from doing the same.

My arms snake around her and my hands rest on her waist. Her arms make there way to my neck. I look up to her eyes. Her are still focused on my lips, till they flick to my eyes. I raise my eyebrows asking for approval, which she nods. I lean in, connecting our lips. It gentle. Sweet.

Then we hear the front door practically slam shut. I push away from leah and she pushes away from me.

Beth walks into the kitchen.

Ugh fuck sake Beth, always has the worst timing don't you.
