Alessia Russo Oneshot

Moments in Between

The locker room buzzed with post-match energy, the air thick with the aroma of victory and camaraderie. You stood amidst your teammates, laughing and swapping stories from the game. Alessia Russo, ever the heart of the team, was recounting a particularly amusing moment from her stellar performance, drawing everyone's attention with her infectious enthusiasm.

As you listened, your eyes occasionally met hers, a silent exchange of understanding and shared experiences. It wasn't often you found a quiet moment alone with her amidst the chaos of training and matches, but tonight, something in the air whispered opportunity.

"Hey, Y/N," Alessia's voice broke through the chatter, her smile warm and inviting. "You were amazing out there today."

You thanked her, feeling your cheeks warm slightly at the compliment. Before you could respond, the conversation shifted around you, teammates asking about tactics and celebrating goals. Alessia lingered beside you, her shoulder brushing against yours as she leaned in to hear your response.

The moment stretched, time slowing as Alessia's gaze locked with yours. The noise of the locker room faded into background hum as you leaned closer, your heart beating a little faster. You could feel the weight of her presence, the magnetic pull drawing you in.

In that suspended moment, with teammates milling around and oblivious to the world outside their circle, you closed the distance. Your lips met hers in a slow, tender kiss, the taste of victory mingling with the sweetness of the unexpected. Alessia responded with a soft sigh against your mouth, her hand finding yours in the shared intimacy of the moment.

For a heartbeat, the world outside ceased to exist. It was just the two of you, suspended in a breathless exchange of warmth and affection. The kiss deepened, a silent promise of more to come, before reality nudged you back into the present.

A teammate's laugh broke the spell, and Alessia pulled back slightly, her eyes searching yours with a mixture of surprise and delight. You both grinned, the unspoken acknowledgment between you enough to fill the space with unspoken promises.

"Looks like we have some celebrating to do," Alessia said softly, her voice husky with emotion.

You nodded, feeling a surge of warmth and excitement. As the team continued to celebrate around you, Alessia squeezed your hand gently, a silent reassurance that this was just the beginning.

In the midst of your teammates' cheers and laughter, you stole another glance at Alessia, sharing a secret smile that spoke volumes. The road ahead was uncertain, filled with challenges and victories yet to come, but in that stolen moment, you knew you were exactly where you were meant to be—by Alessia Russo's side.
