Chapter 9;

Eric p.o.v

It was half an hour later, I was dressed and we were cuddled up on the sofa when JSon knocked on the door. I groaned and untangled myself from Jess, who remained on the sofa.

"Hey bro." I greeted him.

"E!" he said, pulling me into a hug and slapping my back. "Hope I'm not interuppting anthing." he winked at Jess. "Hey babe," I had never heard him call her that before, and I can't say I was too thrilled, even though I knew full well he didn't like Jess that way.

"Hey handsome," she grinned, getting up and giving him a hug. "I was promised a video game?" she grinned. I loved it when she played fifa with us, even though she didn't really follow football.

"Yep - Fifa." he grinned. I stood near them, just watching Jess. I loved how she had instantly felt at home here - it gave me hope for the future. I couldn't help grinning like an idiot.

"Hey, Saade - get your cute bum over here!" Jess called. I was still smiling when I picked up a controller.

"How about a little Sweden v England?" JSon suggested with a smirk.

"I'm up for it." we both said at the same time. We grinned, selected our players (mine was of course Ibrahimović, and I think she chose Beckham) and started the game.

          ..............................

It was half an hour later that Jess had me pinned to the sofa, squealing like a girl - she was tickiling me. "Stop, stop!" I laughed.

"Will you admit I beat you?"

"Ja, fine!" I laughed. Jess moved away, and handed the controller to JSon. We picked our usual players, and began the game.

"Very manly, dude," he laughed, messing my hair.

"Shut up!" I replied, shoving him. Jess said that she was going to phone Chloe, since they hadn't spoken in a while.

Jess p.o.v.

I dialled Chlo's number, willing her to pick up. "Hello, stranger!" awnsered a familiar voice. We had'nt spoken since before I had left, nearly 4 days ago.

"Hello," I replied. She asked me all about what I had done whilst here, and I told her about the fan trying to kiss Eric. He and JSon were fully emerged in the game, shouting and mocking each other, so I knew they wouldn't hear.

"I don't blame her!" she replied, "He is beautiful! And totally devoted to you, I might add." her comment made me look over from the kitchen, into the living room. They were open plan, so I could see them, full view.

"What is that noise?" She asked, "It sounds like a riot is going on!" she laughed.

"Oh, that's just Eric and JSon playing fifa." I explained with a laugh.

"Oh my god - JSon is there?!" she screamed, making me wince. "Can I please talk to him? I'll be nice, I swear!" I laughed at her, told her to hold on and called to JSon.

"My friend wants to meet you - well, talk to you." I laughed as he agreed. "Ok," I said to Chlo, "Here he is - be nice!"

"I love you babe!" she yelled at me. I laughed as I handed JSon the phone, walking over to Eric and sitting next to him. We laughed but otherwise carried on with the game, laughing at the faces JSon was pulling, as if to say "Wow - she's crazy!"

It was a good 10 minutes until JSon handed me my phone. "I think she's done!" he laughed as I put the phone to my ear again.

"You owe me for 10 minutes of long distance!" I told her.

"I owe you everything for letting me talk to him!" she replied. We said our goodbyes, and hung up. I went to the bathroom, leaving behind the shouts of Eric and JSon playing fifa.
