Alessia Russo Oneshot

Wrapped in Warmth

The England camp was alive with the usual buzz of activity. Teammates chatted, laughter echoed through the halls, and the smell of freshly brewed coffee lingered in the air. It was a typical day of training and preparation, but you had something special in mind for a certain someone.

Alessia Russo, your girlfriend and one of England's star strikers, was known for her powerful presence on the pitch, but off the field, there was a softer side to her. A side that loved nothing more than the warmth and security of being hugged from behind. It was a little secret between the two of you, something that brought her comfort and a sense of calm, especially during the hectic days of camp.

As the team gathered in the common area for a brief break, you noticed Alessia standing by the window, her gaze lost in thought as she looked out at the training fields. A small smile tugged at your lips as you quietly made your way over to her, careful not to draw any attention from the others. This moment was just for the two of you.

Without a word, you slipped your arms around her waist from behind, pulling her gently into your embrace. You felt her body relax against yours almost immediately, a contented sigh escaping her lips as she leaned back into you.

"Hey, you," she murmured softly, her hands covering yours as she intertwined your fingers.

"Hi," you whispered back, resting your chin on her shoulder. "Just thought I'd give you a little break."

Alessia chuckled, the sound warm and familiar. "You always know just what I need."

"I know how much you love these," you replied, pressing a light kiss to the side of her neck. "And I love giving them to you."

She turned her head slightly, enough for you to catch a glimpse of the smile on her face. It was the kind of smile that made your heart swell with affection, the kind that told you just how much this simple gesture meant to her.

For a moment, the world outside ceased to exist. It was just the two of you, wrapped in each other's warmth, finding solace in the familiarity of your embrace. The chatter and noise of the camp faded into the background, leaving only the steady rhythm of your breaths and the comforting beat of Alessia's heart.

"Thank you," she whispered, her voice barely audible but filled with sincerity. "For always being here. For knowing how to make everything better."

You tightened your arms around her, pressing another soft kiss to her shoulder. "Always, Less. I'll always be here."

She sighed again, this time in pure contentment, as she let herself melt further into your embrace. The day's challenges and the pressures of the tournament seemed to disappear, if only for a little while, as you held her close, offering her the comfort and reassurance she needed.

In that moment, there was no need for words. The love and connection you shared spoke louder than any conversation ever could. And as you stood there, holding Alessia in your arms, you knew that you would always be her safe haven, just as she was yours.

No matter what the future held, you would face it together—side by side, with your arms wrapped around each other, and hearts intertwined.
