Olivia's POV I was on my way to the cafe where Jordan and Leah agreed to meet up. It was now just five o'clock and as I looked up I saw Jordan coming, she flashed me a small smile which I returned.
"Hi Olivia" Jordan greets me.
"Hi, how are you?" I say. We sit on a bench that was near while waiting for Leah. Classic.
"Good, excited for the season, I have a good feeling about it" She says.
"That's great, I can't wait for the match agains Chelsea. Tough start but I'm sure we'll win" I say.
"Of course we'll win it" Both Jordan and I turned around and see Leah standing behind us. "Shall we go now?" Leah asks.
"Hey! You don't get to pressure us now Le, you're the one who takes an eternity to get ready" I say trying to annoy her.
"Shut up Olivia" It's all Leah says.
"Who's driving?" I ask.
"Me" Jordan says. "My car is right there, come on"

On our way to London we listen to a lot of different types of music, from country to rap to pop it was just a mix of our three different likes of music. It wasn't uncomfortable at all. I mean, I was in the back and Leah was in the passenger's seat which I didn't care really.
After 40 minutes, we finally arrived and how I missed this city. I love London it just has something that makes the city special, something I've never seen or felt in any other, I felt home. We parked near the centre and we got out.
"Okay, so what do we do first?" I ask, and look at them.
"We could walk around and then go to the mall? It's about 20 minutes from here walking." Jordan suggests.
"Yeah, we'll do that" I say.
We all start walking and Leah came next to me, making me the one on the middle. Which I don't particularly hate but you know sometimes when the two of them talk about something that I don't know or something I feel like I'm intruding on a conversation, so after 15 minutes I moved to be next to Leah but she was the one in the middle now.
We soon arrived at the mall and it was huge but specially the lightning of the place was just wow. You may tell I'm overreacting but let me be okay? I've been living abroad for two years I missed home. With this I'm bot saying Munich is a mediocre city, it's beautiful and there's a lot to do there, but London has my heart.
"So any brand or shop you want to go first?" Jordan asks.
"Actually yeah, I want to go to a jewellery that is on the second floor. I don't exactly remember the name but I'm sure it's there" Leah says. Of course Leah want to go to a jewellery, she loves it. Even though she only wears very simple jewels.
Once we got there we enter and we separate as we all look for different things, Jordan goes to the bracelets section, Leah goes to the rings and then to the earrings section, and I went straight to the necklace's section.
I love a good necklace, it's just an accessory that I, well apart from the matches, always wear. I like the ones that are simple but that have a meaning. As I was looking, one in particular caught my eye, it was a silver one and I think the simplest of all the necklaces in the shop but it was beautiful. The chain was thin and it held a hoop not too big and not too tiny, just the perfect size.

(this but in silver, you may know who it is by just looking at the necklace so you can try and get what I'm trying to do here)
"Hello, can I help you?" The assistant asked me.
"Uh- no, I was just looking at this necklace but thanks" I smile.
"Ah... This necklace is the simplest yet the most meaningful one" The assistant says and that made me look at him.
"Why?" I ask
"Well you see, the one you're looking is in silver but it has a pair, right next to it there's a gold one just like this one, but the two of them are connected, not only because they're the same but also the two hoops always find a way to the other one, that's the meaning of these necklaces" He says. That just made me wanted to buy the two of them, one for me and the other one for Leah, I wear silver jewellery and she usually wears gold. It fits us perfectly.
"Uh- wow, I love them I mean- how much are the both of them?" I ask, although I'm not prepared to hear the price as it will be for sure too expensive.
"Well, it might surprise you, the two of them do not cost a more than a thousand" He says. And it indeed surprised me. Is he kidding me? I know silver is not that expensive but gold?
"Really? I mean that's great yeah, can I maybe have both?" I say with a smile on my face. And then man also smiles at me and nods.
"Of course, I'll go prepare the boxes do you want it as a gift?" He asks me and I nod at him. He grabs the two necklaces and goes inside. In that moment I feel two arms sneak around my waist from behind.
"Hey, something caught your eye?" Leah asks me, her head on my shoulder.
"Yes actually, the assistant is preparing it for me and then I'll pay" I say and turn my face to look at her.
"Can I see what you got?" She asks
"Nope, you'll see tomorrow after the match because we'll get home late today and we have a London derby to win." I say and she groans. In that moment the assistant comes to me.
"Here you go" He says and hands me the bag. I pay and thank him. Leah and I say bye and exit the store.
"Where is Jordan?" I ask.
"She needed to go back home, her dog got ill and she's now at the vet" Leah tells me.
"Oh- hope it's nothing serious" I say. "Can I know what you've bought?" I ask Leah but she shakes her head and interlocks her hand with mine.
"We'll both see what we got tomorrow after the match. You can come to mine after" She says.
"mm okay, wait how are we going back home?" I ask
"I ordered an uber" Leah answers me.
***
On our way back home both Leah and I were in silence but a comfortable one, we were both a little tired. I had my head on her shoulder and she had her arm around me stroking my arm with her fingers while the other was interlocked with mine. The ride was peaceful and I smelled Leah's perfume all the way home which I loved. And it was in that moment I realised that I love Leah. For some it may be too soon but it feels right.
Leah's POV The ride back home was the moment I knew that I love Olivia, which well, I never thought about it but I don't regret anything that has happened. I look at Olivia falling asleep and that made me smile.
