So Long London (y/n x Alexia Putellas)

5

Alexia's POV
Today is our first champions league game of the season and the draw put us in Group A along with Arsenal, Benfica and Rosengard. Our game today is against Arsenal which is not ideal for y/nn, she's been super quiet on the days leading up to this game in training. Most of the girls have noticed and attempted to cheer her up. On the flight to London she didn't sit next to anyone. I was sitting with Irene but decided to check up on my roommate.

Flashback
I got up from my seat and Irene looked up at me.
"Where are you going?" She asks.
"To see if y/nn would like some company." I say. Irene smiles and nods her head at me. I walk back to the back of the plane and see y/n looking out the window, she has her headphones on. I sit down in the seat next to her and I guess she felt the shift of the seats because she looked over at me and clutched her chest tightly.
"Jesus Ale you scared me." She said scolding me quietly.
"Well you looked sad and lonely so I have come to offer my company." I say and she rolls her eyes at me.
"Thank you." She says and looks back outside the window.
"How are you holding up?" I ask her. She looks back at me with her green eyes I always got lost in when we were younger.
"I'm scared... scared to see all my old teammates again." She says.
"To see Leah? Is she mad at you?" I ask thinking about the text I saw.
"God no... Leah and I have talked and she's upset but she understands..." Y/nn says quietly.
"Then who are you scared of?" I ask sadly.
"I don't know most of the girls know the truth so I guess I'm afraid of what Jonas has said since I was forced out." She says.
"We won't let him anywhere near you. If that idiota and fill de puta touches you he's a dead man." I say which makes y/n laugh a bit.
"Never took you as one to curse." y/n says to me.
"I only curse if it's truly necessary and Jonas deserves it." I say.
"Hm what if it is my fault..." She says softly and I look at her confused.
"It's not your fault." I say.
"Every other player at Arsenal who tore their ACL returned on track and on time... Beth, Viv, Leah and Laura even Teyah started playing minutes again. So why didn't the treatment plan work for me?" She asks quietly.
"Everyone is different and not everyone is the same. If the trainers were using the same plan for each one of you then they were wrong." I say. "My rehab plan was way different than Jana's and Cata's. I even had a set back and needed another surgery. If Jonas thought that the ACL ruined your career he couldn't have been more wrong. You're going to be the best player in the world superstar." I say.
"Says you Ale you're the best player in the world." Y/n says.
"I'm getting old." I say.
"Alexia you're 29! You could play another 10 years if you stay in form." Y/n exclaims quietly making me laugh.
"I could but at that age I wouldn't be the best in the world. You would be and soon will be I have no doubts." I say.
"Gracias I needed to hear that." She says.
"I never lie! Look I told Aita she would be great and she won the Ballon d'Or. You're next." I say with a smile.
"In my dreams Ale." She says softly.

We're arriving at the stadium for pitch inspection. I'm walking in with Jana, Irene and Keira.
"I'm worried about y/n." Keira says.
"Why?" Jana asks.
"Playing against your former club is always difficult. Playing against your former club of several years who cast you out and called you worthless is even harder." Irene says.
"Is someone with her now?!" I ask frantically looking around for the shorter girl as we walk onto the pitch.
"Si Ale calm down look she's with Lucy and Ona toward the center of the pitch. Mapi is also there patting the grass." Jana says. I stand silently with my arms crossed as they talk. I don't pay much attention to the conversation, I keep my eyes on y/n from afar. I snap out of my thoughts when someone waves their hands in front of my face.
"Alexia!" Jana says waving her hands in front of me.
"Si." I say blinking a few times. I realize it isn't just Jana, Keira and Irene with me but Leah, Lia and Laia.
"Estas bien chica?" Laia asks me.
"Si todo esta bien." I say. The conversation picks up again with Leah, Lia and Keira talking and Irene and Jana talking with Laia. I tried to pay attention to Laia who was talking but my eyes drifted off to y/n who was talking to her former teammates. I think she was talking to Beth Mead, Alessia Russo and Kyra Cooney-Cross. I stare at y/n admiring her from a distance. I notice how she crinkles her eyebrows when she's a bit confused and that her eyes brighten before she smiles and laughs. When she gets anxious she twiddles her thumbs and chews the inside of her cheek. I must've been so focused on y/n because I didn't notice someone grabbing my shoulder.
"Alexia?" Someone says. I look around me quickly and realize I'm standing alone. Everyone left except for one person. Leah Williamson.
"Leah." I say looking at the England captain.
"I see the way you look at her." She says.
"What?" I say trying to be shocked.
"You can't fool me Alexia... you look at her the same way I did and probably still do. I can tell that you care for her... just don't break her heart like I did. Take care of her, she deserves to be happy." Leah says. My heart stopped... Leah basically just told me I could be with y/nn, she gave me permission to take care of her and to not break her heart. Instead of saying I promise I said "I have a girlfriend."
"Oh I didn't know." Leah says.
I'm fucking stupid! ALEXIA what are you thinking you don't even like Olga.
"Um it's a private relationship..." I say quietly.
"Well relationship or not don't hurt her please." Leah says.
"I won't I promise." I say.
