a 19yo annalise jones, born and raised scouser and red for life moves to madrid to start her life away from her brothers fame working for the biggest football club in the world.
things between me and vini were... steady. we weren't official, but everybody around us could feel it. the glances, the late night calls, our inside jokes. that frustrating almost that felt both too much and not enough.
and thats when trent messaged.
trentski: congrats on your new job jones, madrid looks good on you.
thanks T💞
thinking of visiting actually. the lads miss you.
i hesitated. trent wasnt stupid, he knew about me and vini, id told him, and this seemed more than a "visit".

later that evening, i met vini outside training. he was quiet. not cold - just distant.
"is everything okay?" i asked.
"yeah," he said "long day"
"or maybe you saw a tweet about trent commenting on my photo..."
he shot me a look. "you think im jealous?"
"i think you are trying really hard not to be."
he smirked, but it didnt reach his eyes. "do you talk to him often"
"hes my childhood bestfriend."
"right." he said, looking away.
the silence that followed wasnt loud. just sharp.
later that night i decided it was best to text him.
hey vin are you mad at me.
no
are you sure? i want us to be okay
i just dont like seeing him all over your page lise.
