We're one team now. (Lauren James)

You and Lauren had been together for about a year now, you both played for England. It was your favorite kind of time, it was international break which meant you got to see your girlfriend. You both did represent england but you weren't in the same club, you played for arsenal and she played for chelsea. 

Every other day you were rivals, but for international break you represented the same country. You were more than happy about that, it was also your first time being on the senior team. Lauren had been there longer than you, this was your first time playing for the actual team.

It was your first day at camp, you had been changing into your training kit. Most of the girls were gone by now, it was just you in the changing room. You were moving pretty slow, mostly because you were nervous about being around the new players. They were new to you, but they had been there longer than you. 

You heard a knock, you turned to look at the door. It was lauren, she walked over to you and smiled. You smiled and finished up getting dressed. "You okay? You're taking a bit too long in here.." lauren said walking over to you. "Sorry..i didn't mean to delay anything.." you said shaking your head. 

"No- you didn't delay anything, they've started already..." lauren said pointing back outside. "Are you sure you're alright?" lauren asked you. "Yeah- just a bit nervous.." you said looking down at your boots. "It's okay to be nervous...no one will judge you for it." lauren pulled you into her arms. You laid your head onto her chest and breathed in. "I know...it's my first time being here..." you said.

"And i'm more than proud of you...we're one team now...finally." lauren said. You pulled away and smiled up at her. "I'm very honored to even be on the same team as you.." you said looking up at her in pure admiration. "You deserve to be here." lauren said.

You smiled and were about to lean in to kiss your girlfriend when you heard someone else walk in, you stopped yourself and looked behind lauren. Lucy had walked in, she smiled at the both of you and shook her head. "I was wondering where you went off to..." lucy told lauren, lauren looked back at lucy and scoffed.

"Do you mind?" lauren said. Lucy nodded. "I do actually...we're supposed to be training.." lucy pointed out the door. "You're right...sorry..." you said trying to walk out the door, lauren held your wrist back though making you turn to her. "I'm sure you'll be fine without us for a minute or so.." lauren raised an eyebrow at lucy. 

"You two make me sick..." lauren smiled and walked out closing the door. You turned to look back at lauren. "She's gonna tell everyone now...not a great way for me to start.." you sighed. "She won't- she better not..." lauren looked down at your lips. She smiled and leaned down to place a gentle kiss over your lips. 

Lauren always seemed so intimidating, that's how you viewed her before you even knew her. You both met when you first started playing for chelsea, stayed friends during your last season at chelsea then she asked you out. Then the hardest part came, you moved clubs and joined arsenal. You thought it was gonna be hard for both of you, but you found a way to manage everything.
