~When we were in high school~

Julian

- Are you ready ?
She asked me knocking softly at my room's door.
- Yes.
I said while opened it.
- Hi Julian.
She said smiling.
- Hi, Lila. You came early.
I said and I leaned to kiss her.
- I know. I'm so excited, I couldn't wait.
She admitted.
- I'm glad to hear it.
I said and I hugged her making her giggle.
- Hello Lila.
Patrick said coming behind us.
- Hi, Patrick.
Lila, greeted him blushing. I wonder if she considered my brother handsome as well.
- Shall we go ?
He asked mainly looking at me.
- Sure.
I said and when he turned to leave I kissed Lila one more time.
She kissed me back smiling like an idiot and I smiled as well. I couldn't help it. Seeing her so happy, only made my day.

It was the first time, Lila was watching a match that I played for my club. Of course, she had watched me playing football a thousand times especially in school but that was different. And I felt that it was different. It was the first time in my life I wanted us to win and I also wanted to score. Lila was my motivation this day but I think she was also a motivation of mine every other single day. Watching her in the stands with my brother I felt so happy. I wanted to score, no I needed to score so to dedicate her all my goals. She was so important to me and that confused me. I have never fallen head over heels for any girl. Lila was different. They say that there's nothing more enduring than your first love. I agree. I'm also pretty sure that Lila was my first love and also my only one.
I scored three goals in this game dedicating all three of them to her.
She was cheering all the time motivating me even more.
After the end of the match, I approached her. She was smiling brightly.
- You were great!
She said hugging me.
I didn't let her from my hug. I just couldn't get enough of her.
- Thank you.
I whispered to her.
- I'm just speaking the truth.
- No, I mean thank you for being here today.
- Why shouldn't I ? I'll never loose a match of yours Julian.
I let her from my hug and looked into her eyes.
- I love you Lila.
I said waiting for her answer. I know we weren't dating for so long but it was the truth. I loved her and it was the first time I said that to her.
- I love you too Julian.
She said smiling even more brighter as if she was waiting for me to say that earlier.
I smiled back at her and I kissed her once more. My brother interrupted us again by cleaning his throat.
- I think someone wants to talk to you Julian.
He said pointing at my coache's direction who was speaking with another man whom I couldn't recognize.
Lila nodded, smiling at me and I left her so to go and talk to my coach.
- Here you are Julian.
He said smiling at me.
- You played really good today.
The other man said to me.
- Thank you sir.
I replied looking both at him and at my coach. That was it ? They wanted just to congratulate me ?
- Julian, mr. Jones wants to offer you a position at the Wolfsburg team.
I looked at both of them in desbelief. That was the best thing that has ever happened to me.
- Yes, that's right Julian. But I need to talk to your parents first. You should dicuss that with them carefully before you decide. It's a big deal. You should be sure about your decision. Don't hurry. Take your time. I'll wait. Here's my number.
He gave me a card with his number which I took with my hands shaking. I couldn't believe that this had just happened. These things don't happen everyday and for sure they don't happen to me.
- Thank you.
I said again being more excited than have ever been in my life before. I couldn't wait to tell Lila, she would be really happy about me.
- So, what happened ?
Lila asked as I came back at them.
- They want me to join Wolfsburg.
I replied smiling at both of them giving my brother the card with mr. Jone's number.
- Really ? I'm so happy for you Julian.
Lila screamed hugging me again.
- Congratulations Jule.
Patrick said giving me a friendly pat in the shoulder.
- That's so nice. I can't believe that I date someone who'll be a futuristic player in Wolfsburg. Congratulations! I'm so happy for you.
Lila was as excited as I was. That made me regret the fact that I hadn't tell her earlier that I loved her.
But I guess it was never too late.

- Okay, I have important stuff to tell you.
Brine said as she approached Lila. She then noticed me.
- Hey, Julian.
- Hi, Brine.
- Then I have to tell both of you important stuff.
She said looking at both of us.
- What's the big deal ?
Lila asked looking at her interested but I ignored her. My eyes were focused on Lila. She was looking too damn hot with her school uniform, with as always her messy, curly hair.
I stared at her lips. She had beautiful, full lips making me want to kiss them again and again and again.
Lila must have noticed that I was staring at her because she looked at me smiling. I smiled back at her and she touched my hand as if she wanted to saw to the other girls there that she owned me.
- Hey lovebirds can you focus on what I'm saying ?
Brine asked making both me and Lila look at her.
- Sorry Brine. Can you repeat it ?
Lila asked making Brine rolling her eyes.
- I said that our class is organizing a trip to Berlin. Isn't it perfect ? I'm pretty sure you'll come. Won't you ?
Brine asked clapping her hands as if she was a small girl.
- Yes, sure it'll be nice.
- It'll be.
I said looking at Lila. As long as she'll be there it'll be nice.

- That's great news Julian. I'll talk to mr. Jones tonight.
My father said proudly as my brother informed him about it.
- This requires a lot of responsibilities Hans and Julian needs to focus on his studies.
My mother stated looking worryingly at me.
- Of course he will but how can you turn down an opportunuty like that ?
My father asked again.
- We'll have to think about it.
She said looking away.
I couldn't believe that she was still considering that. It was a dream come true.
But I knew she wasn't going to turn that down in the end. She couldn't do such thing. She knew how important this was to me and that I had tried my hardest for it.
- I can do both mom. I can study and I can also play football.
- Julian, it's not the same. If you agree to be a part of this club, you'll have to sacrifice a lot of things.
- I can sacrifice anything when it comes to this.
I admitted and my words have even caught me by surprise. It meant so much to me. I could do anything just to be a part of this team.
- I think he can do it Monica. Julian was always responsible. I don't doubt it that he'll be now as well. We just need to trust him.
My mother looked at all of us. I knew she wanted to say yes to this but she was hesitating. She was afraid that maybe something wouldn't work in the end that's why she didn't want me to focus on football and completely forget about school. But to be honest, I was afraid of that as well. Maybe it wouldn't everything be the way I wanted it to be. I knew my mom's fears were logical. I had to try my hardest to achieve my dreams. I wanted to become a professional footballer since I was seven. I had never thought of becoming anything else in my life. My biggest dream was that and I'm pretty sure it would never change. Football was a big love of mine, maybe the most important thing it ever happened to me. After Lila. Of course after Lila.
