-My head hurts. – Jane groaned from the couch.
-Here eat something first. The aspirin is on the side.
-Thank you, Audrey! – She smiled and took a sip of some fresh orange juice.
-Hey, no problem! Did you have fun yesterday?
-I did. – Jane blushed, probably thinking about Mario.
-If you want to talk about it...- I was hesitant to finish, because I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable.
-How about when I'm completely sober. Because my head is killing me. I don't know how I'll work today.
-I bet it won't be a busy day – most of our colleagues are probably still drunk. – I laughed.
-Everyone, except you and Thomas.
Now it was my turn to have flushed cheeks. I didn't even know why, because nothing happened. But just the thought of dancing with him, made my heart skip a beat. It was all too new and exciting and I still couldn't understand how all of this was happening. It seemed so surreal.
-So did anything happen between you guys? – Jane asked.
-Not really. We just danced and talked.
-That's weird.
-Why?
-Because while dancing with Mario, he told me that Mesut wants to set you two up.
-That doesn't make sense.
-Well...it was supposed to be a secret but Thomas went through a break-up and the guys...
-It's better if I don't know, Jane. – I said calmly. I wanted to know what was with all the teasing but I didn't want to get my hopes up.
-Of course, you're right. I'm sorry. By the way, thank you for telling me about the paparazzi.
-Well, no worries! I'm just glad that we avoided the whole scandal.
-Yeah, don't want to get you even more work. – She laughed.
We ate our breakfast in silence and headed out for work. As I entered the office, I could just feel how James will be on my case for dancing with Thomas.
-Well, there you are.
-Good morning, James. – I already sighed.
-Care to explain why you're on this picture with Thomas Muller? – He replied, showing me a gossip paper.
-Oh come on, James. I'm in the background and you can hardly see me. Thomas is smiling and being nice. What's the problem?
-The problem is that you have to be careful.
-I am. I warned the others so there won't be any problems.
-James, cut her some slack. She did her job! – Frank stood up and defended me.
-Okay, fine. Just be careful. – James shrugged his shoulders and went to his office.
-Thank you, Frank! – I smiled and sat opposite of him.
-Well, your tweets yesterday hit a million likes. That has never happened before. So it won't be cool if we lost our vital team member.
-Thanks, again! What is wrong with James these days? He seems more worried than usual.
-Ah, you know how he gets during important matches. Anyway – back to work!
-You're right.
He translated some short interviews with the players and I posted them on our social media. I had this idea to make gifs with the best reactions and they got really popular. A lot of people retweeted them and came up with different captions.
