Dumbstruck

Chapter 24

The days flew by rather fast and before I know it, it's game week already. Turns out we have 3 games this week. We'll be playing against Sweden's Women National Football Team tomorrow. Then we'll be having a friendly game the day after, and then the boys will be playing the day after that.

"Why do you girls take so long to choose a shirt? They look the same!" Kaden gestured to the row of clothes in front of him.

"Why do you boys have such poor sense in fashion? That obviously looks way different from this." Annoyed, Blaze shoved the shirts in front of Kaden.

Shaking my head, I looked away from the bickering pair and decided to stand next to Alex.

"Arguing again?" He smiled down at me, draping his arm on my shoulder.

I nodded my head and snuggled closer to him, wrapping my arm on his waist. "I missed you."

"I missed you too, Squirt." He kissed the top of my head. "It's no fun annoying those girls, they're such buzzkills."

"That's because I'm the only one who toletare your childishness." I laughed when he pouted.

"Childishness? For your information, madame, I am very much mature." He said in a polish voice while lifting his chin up.

"Mmm-hmm." I said while looking around. Suddenly, my stomach demanded food. Growling so loud that I'm pretty Zeus heard it.

"Damn, girl. When was the last time you fed that beast?" Alex pulled away as he pointed at my stomach. "Come on, let's feed that thing before it eats me."

"Oh I'm pretty sure it has better taste than that." I laughed at his reaction.

Since we were starving, we decided to just eat on the malls food court since it's faster. Besides, my stomach keeps growling for the past 5 minutes and it's starting to annoy him.

"Excuse me," someone tapped my shoulder, making me turn around. "You're Tyvvah Reinigan, right? I'm such a huge fan of yours! Do you mind if I can take a picture with you?"

She smiled sheepishly at me which made me chuckle. "Sure!"

I smiled at her before putting my food on the table and stood next to her. Alex volunteered to take the picture so she gave him her camera. Standing beside her, I placed my hand on her shoulder and smiled widely while doing a peace sign. She asked for Alex too so we switched places before thanking us and letting us eat in peace.

"You looked shocked when she asked to take a picture with you." I chuckled.

"Yeah, I'm just surprised that someone recognized me here." He shrugged. "You didn't look bothered though."

"Meh," I leaned back on the chair. "It wasn't the first time that someone asked for my picture here in Sweden."

"Really?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Mmm-hmm." I nodded. "The first time was when I was out with Oscar and the guys. We were walking towards this diner when a group of girls approached us. At first I thought they were just fangirling over them since they are famous here, it totally took me off guard when this girl named Olivia walked towards me and told me that she was fan of mine." I laughed while shaking my head.

"Looks like someone's famous." He smirked at me.

"As if you're not?" I raised a brow at him.

"So you're agreeing that you are?" He said, still wearing his famous smirk.

"Well, I am charmingly irresistible." I jokingly said while flipping my hair.

"Tell me about it." He rolled his eyes. "That blonde dude always stares at you like some sort of obsessed stalker."
