WOSO Imagines

worth the wait? (leah williamson)

The last three years was nothing short of a roller coaster. You moved to England from your small apartment in New York to work for the government — after being caught hacking into all their data, only telling them that you'd tell them exactly how you did it and wouldn't be charged with anything.

In the first couple of weeks of getting settled in your new place, you've been going to the same little diner every single day. The diner was busier than normal, but you still took up a whole table to yourself, folders littered on top as you typed away on your laptop.

You didn't mind how busy it was, all in your own world until a figure slid into the booth right in front of you. You look up, eyes blinking rather quickly.

"Uh, I don't know you. Why are you sitting there?"

Shocked by your words, she spits out a venomous apology, sliding out of the booth.

"I can see by your facial expression that you aren't rather pleased by how I talked to you. People have told me that I have a very low EQ and don't know how to deal with... emotions because I do not feel as one normal human does."

The woman sits back down in the booth in front of you, face now showing an amusing expression.

"What's your name?"

"Y/N Y/LN."

"Well, Y/N, it's interesting to meet you."

"It's interesting to meet you too."

There's a bit of an awkward silence as you kept staring at her. She shifts in her seat, not knowing the reason for your stare.

"You never told me your name."

Her eyebrows shoot up in surprise. "Oh! Sorry, it's Leah, Leah Williamson."

"Okay." You give her a tight lipped smile, going back to your work.

Leah was unsure of what to do. All she knows was that she saw a pretty girl in a crowded diner taking up a whole booth and next thing she knows, she's sat across from her.

As she works up the courage to start a conversation, she's lightly shoved deeper into the booth.

"Jen has a case for us so pack up." The person is gone before she could steady herself.

"I apologize for Natalie's demeanor, but this is urgent. Goodbye."

Both of you didn't know, but that would be the start of a very complicated relationship. The pair of you have gotten close over time, you even going to games to support her even if it's not your favorite place to be.

You've also gotten close to some of Leah's teammates, well you tried to keep your distance, but they keep popping up beside you.

"When are you gonna ask the skipper out?"

You were currently doing a crossword puzzle — not really a puzzle because all the answer were much to easy for your very smart brain — when one Katie McCabe came up to stand next to you after the game.

The team had just won against Aston Villa and are getting showered and dressed before leaving the stadium.

"I don't know what you mean."

"Oh, come on man! Stop being a wimp and ask her to dinner."

"Right now?"

"Yes! Right now!"

Standing by the locker room, you wait for the blonde to make an appearance.

"Y/N! Glad you could make it!" She walks up to you, wrapping her arms around your neck, pulling you into an embrace.
