BETH'S POV: Beth's Final Match
Today is my final match in my career. I see Viv walking out of the bathroom. She walks over and hugs me from behind. "Are you ok?" asked Viv, smiling. "I am, just reflecting on my career and how I have regretted nothing" I said, looking back at her. "You've achieved everything you wanted" said Viv. "I did and so did you" I said, turning to kiss her.
"Let's have some food before we head to Cobham" said Viv, smiling. I nod and we go down and have avocado and toast. We finish and e get ready to leave. Once we arrive, we head to the bus and get on. Everyone smiles at me and claps. I blush and smile.
We arrive at Stamford Bridge and we head inside. It's against Arsenal and I'm nervous. But I am so ready. We go onto the pitch and walk around. We head inside to pull on our shorts, skin pads, sock, boots and our training tops. I put my hair in a ponytail. I smile and we head out to the pitch to warm up.
Once we finish, we head inside and we pull on our jerseys. I smile and we do a huddle. "Today is Beth's final match, let's go out and win this for her!" said Millie, smiling. We cheer and hug. We head out to the tunnel and we line up.
Viv rubs my back and I smile. We walk out and we shake Arsenal players hands and then take the knee. We hear the whistle and then we begin

Everyone hugs me and we walk around clapping the fans. Sonia walks over with flowers and a mic. "A few words?" asked Sonia, smiling. I nod.
"Hi blues. I.... this is harder then I thought. When it came to deciding when to retire I had conversations with the club, my wife, our families. When they supported me, I knew I was making the right choice. I also knew it was because I had no regrets with how my career went. I've had highs and lows but I've loved every minute of it. I loved playing for Sunderland, Arsenal and now Chelsea. I want to thank you all for welcoming me and supporting me. Thank you Blues" I said. Viv hugs me and kisses me.
We head into the locker room and have showers. I get dressed into a pair of jeans, a blouse and vans. I leave my hair natural and no make up. Viv is wearing jeans, a tank top and a flannel. I walk over and kiss her. "I love you" said Viv, smiling. "I love you" I said, smiling.
We head to the bar and have our dinner there. Once we finish, we head home. We pull on pyjama's and lie in bed after feeding Myle. We watch Taken and then we fall asleep once it's over.
Hope you enjoyed!
