inspired by Ona
you were running down the line with Renard behind you coming at you with pace. You looked to your left to see Pina who had just been subbed on and passed the ball to her. You didn't notice Renard was now on your left side and as the ball left your foot you got shoved forward by Renard and as she kept running her cleats scraped against your face from the bottom of your cheek to next to your eyebrow. To make things worse the left side of your face slammed against the ground right onto your new cut which burned. You instantly tried to stand up to get out of the way of play but your head was spinning and your sense of direction was off so you didn't even know which way was up. Instead you decided to lay back down and try get the attention of alexia or Ingrid. You waved your hand in the way you thought was up and then felt hands on your back.
"Hey Joey" the voice said and you relaxed instantly in your hold. It was Ellie. "What's wrong?" She said trying to help you sit up which you tried to contribute to but she ended up doing most of the work and winced when she saw the left side of your face covered in your blood and your eye almost swelled shut with bruising already forming. "Oh darl" she said cupping your face as she called out for someone from the Barcelona team to come and help you aswell the medics.
"Ellie shhhh" you said rubbing your head and rubbing the blood from them onto your forehead aswell. Once you brought your hands down alexia, pina, Ona and Ingrid had now joined you just as you noticed the blood and looked up to Ellie
"Ellie what happened?" You say as tears started filling your eyes and Ellie's face softened knowing you most likely had concussion
"It's ok you just took a nasty fall and got a cut on your cheek, your gonna be ok I promise" she said as you nodded and alexia pulled your body back slightly to rest against her as she sat down behind you.
The Barcelona medics arrived, stood you up with the help of ale and Ingrid, wiped up most of the blood and realised that you were showing signs of concussion and needed to be subbed off.
"Noo ale I don't want to go off! I just came on!" You whined trying to grab onto her to stay on the pitch even though she was walking with you off the pitch
"You didn't bebita you came on ages ago" she tried to explain as she held your smaller hand in hers and rubbed over your knuckles knowing it comforted you. You sighed and leaned into her side just as you got to the edge of the field were you were transferred to mapis side as she immediately began doing the same thing alexia just had been as you slowly started leaning more and more of your weight into her.
"Hey bebita your gonna need to stay awake until they get you all fixed okay" mapi said gently as she pushed your flyaways out of your face and kissed your forehead as you merely nodded and opened your eyes a little bit more.
The medics bandaged your face and gave you ice for your eye and you got diagnosed with stage 1 concussion and got cleared to go back to the bench to watch the rest of the game as long as you wore your ear defenders and kept your ice pack on your eye to which you agreed and mapi said she would watch you. By the time you got out there they were announcing the extra time as you went to the bench and sat near Vicky who laughed at you as you tried to shove her which caused her to laugh harder as you pouted before Frido pulled you into her lap and held your ice to your eye for you so you could focus on the game.
"And back on the bench we have 15 year old Australian Y/n Y/l/n who looks like she has a shiner coming through and matching cuts to her fellow team mate Ona batlle" the commentator announced as the bench laughed and Ona winked at you from the field.
When alexia scored her goal Frido was up and carried you with her like you were a koala and she was your tree. Alexia took you off her and span you around after she had whipped her shirt off as you groaned at her sweaty body.
"Yuck ale your all sweaty" you complained as she laughed and gave you a big kiss on the head before pina came and you gave her a big hug for her assist as she kissed your forehead too. Then Frido came and took you back to the bench where you basically fell asleep in her lap for the rest of the match.
"And it looks like Barcelonas young talent has fallen asleep" the women commentator said "I wouldn't blame her she took a hard knock to the head and she's got a black eye forming and that massive cut" the man said as the camera locks in on you and frido on the bench as she absentmindedly runs her hand through your hair.
When the whistle blows you are jostled out of your sleep and immediately know what's happened as everyone is screaming and cheering. Your first thought is to find Ellie and make sure she is ok as she is your national team mate and one of your favourite people. When she spots you she pulls you into a big hug which you accept as she gently lifts your headphones to whisper in your ear
"I'm glad you're ok, you had me nervous for a while" she said pulling back slightly to cup your cheeks and inspect your face. She winces, kisses your forehead and then tells you to go celebrate which is when you run into Ona.
"Oni! Look! we're matching!" You say as you walk into her arms after repeatedly pointing to your bandaged cheek
"I know" she laughs but doesn't lift your ear defenders due to close proximity and you them blocking out louder noises (which Ellie didn't know)
"Did your sleep get some of your energy and awareness back?" She asked to which you nodded slightly before you change the topic and ask her to get a photo of you guys together with your medals, the trophy and your matching injuries to which she accepts. She kisses your hairline before walking with you to find the others.
What you found unfair was Ona got to take off her bandage for the presentation while Alexia made you keep the big white plaster on your face which stick out like a sore thumb on your tanned skin even when you whined to her about wanting to match with Ona fully
"Everyone knows you have the same knocked up face" she laughed and ruffled your hair which you grumbled about as well
"But ale I want us to be fully matching not half matching" you said as ale shook her head
"Yours is bigger than Onita's besides she's a big girl" she said that part jokingly "and she can decide whether or whether not she wants it on" you were about to jump in and say you too where a big girl when ale continued "and no you aren't and im the captain and I decide whether or whether not you keep it on" she said wrapping her arm around your shoulder as you leaned into her but looked up at her with an innocent smile
"Since your captain you can just make her out one back on though ale" you said practically begging as she sighed. Ona didn't end up putting on a new bandaid which you weren't very happy about.
You weren't allowed to be around the kids because they would be too loud and crazy for you right now (ale, irene and martas words) so you were stuck with the adults for celebrations, the bus and plane ride and alexia even stayed with you and Mali and Ingrid's for a couple days just to make sure you were fully fine. The photo you and Ona took got posted to the Barcelona page with the caption; 'put their bodies on the line and for a good cause ❤️💙' to which you reposted it to your instagram with the captain 'I've gotta do everything you do @onabatlle 😉😜' to which Ona reposted and said 'of course my little shadow ❤️'
And it went viral as the fans found it hilarious that you and Ona were not taking the injuries that seriously.
A/n Sorry this took so long and wasn't even any of the requests y'all sent
