WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!
For the first time in history Germany won the Confed Cup! And I couldn't be more proud!
The game was nerve wrecking, lots of missing shots from our side and lots of "what was that?" from their side. They lost a bit along the way and got a little off football and we set back a lot, but in the end everything turned out just perfect.
I stood there to watch Jule won the golden ball of the tournament and couldn't keep my tears. Whenever he does whatever in the pitch I feel so proud, we grew together, I watch him play for a really long time and to see he lead our national team and win as the best payer is something I can't put in words.
He puts so much of him every time he steps on the pitch. I watch it closely and he deserves this and so much more. He has an incredible future ahead and I hope I get to share it with him.
By the time he got his medal I was still crying and I don't recall smiling that much in my life, not even when he won the World Cup! Of course the World Cup is the ultimate glory to a player and this tournament is kind of a filling one, but there he barely played and this one he led, he showed the world who he is and what a great player he is.
Yes, I'm fangirling over my boyfriend. I do this a lot.
When they started to going around the stadium I felt my phone buzzing.
Come to the tunnels. Was all it said.
I made my way there, looking for the pass he gave me and I never used, as I watched all the games at the regular places and went back to hotel right after the games.
After showing that thing with my picture and name on it to quite a few people I finally made it and watched them arriving in a buzz!
Jule, Mustafi and Kevin were the first ones I saw and my smile only grew bigger at the sight of him and the happiness in his features.
"Jule!" I ran into his arms, not even caring about his golden ball, and he held me tight, not seeming to care either. "You did it, babe, I'm so proud of you!" I felt tears in my eyes again as I spoke with my head buried in his chest, even though he was soaking sweat.
"Thank you, liebe!" he said quickly and backed down a bit before kiss me. "I have a gift for you. Here." he handed me his golden ball and I took my time analyzing it.
He won this for being the best player in the tournament. I'M SO FREAKING PROUD!
"Here, this too." he took out his medal and put it on me, like the man did to him before.
I let one hand go of his trophy to feel the medal .
"I'm so happy for you, Jule, you have no idea." I said still staring at the medal. And holding the golden ball close to my body.
"Mustafi." I looked up to see Mustafi handing him the Confed Cup trophy. "Here." he handed me and took it with the free hand, before putting it close to me.
I felt like a twins mama, a baby in each arm and a huge smile on my face while I couldn't stop staring at both of the trophies.
"The last one..." he begun and Keving got a little closer to him before he went down on his knee and hand me the last gift.
My jaw dropped and I felt the tears falling down hard now.
"Jule..."
"You accepted it all, now you have to accept this one too." he chuckled. "The day we went to the final you said I was up to great things and you planned to be with me all the way, I plan the exactly same thing. You've been by my side for so long, supporting me through the good and the bad, either there was medals and trophies or not and I can't imagine share my life with anyone else. So, you'll marry me, right Jen?!"
"That's not how we planned, Julian!" I heard Kevin yell when I was about to answer and I finally noticed we were surrounded by Die Mannschaft staff.
"Of course I'll marry you, Jule." I said between tears and gave the trophies away in a hurry to hug him. "I love you, Jule, so so-" he kissed me before I finished my sentence.
"I love you." he said with our lips still together and backed down to put the ring on my finger. "I love you."
"Oh Jule!" I cupped his face and kissed almost all of it before Kevin tear us apart. "Third wheel!"
"Hey!"

THEY DID IT! I'M SO FREAKING PROUD!!
AND BABY IS THE BEST PLAYER OF THE TOURNAMENT, I CANNOT CONTAIN MYSELF!
Anyway, this story has come to an end and I'm kinda sad, I was feeling really attached to Jule and Jen 😍😍
Hope you enjoyed as much as I enjoyed writing it and if you feel like it take a look in my "What Happens In Dortmund - short stories series" 😊
Ps. It's 3:55 in the morning and I have to work tomorrow, yay (not!), but I couldn't watch the game live and had to watched at one in the morning.
See you around 😘
