Sorry for all these time skips. I want to write about when Eleanor is older not just one years old.
Taytum's POV:
We are back in London for the big match against Saracens. Now Henry is playing with the Exeter Chiefs for the final in Twickenham. Today is Eleanor's first ever rugby match. For her third birthday Henry bought her, her own Exeter Chiefs and England rugby kit. We have visited London since we where last in Exeter. I dressed Eleanor up in her Exeter Chiefs kit ready for the match. I put some nice clothes on for the day and to look presentable for the game. I put my phone in my bag with a few snacks for Eleanor just in case she got hungry. I let Eleanor play for a while, while I sorted some bits out around the house.Henry left around 1:00pm to arrive at the stadium as the same time as the team. He left us so he could get there when the team arrived so he won't miss any important news. I texted Henry to tell him we where leaving. Hey, babe. We are on our way to the stadium now. Xxx I sent the message and locked my phone. Soon after it went off. It was a message from Henry. Ok. See you outside of Exeter's changing room. Xxx. I sent one back to say ok. I put my bag on my shoulder ready to go. "Eleanor. Ready to go." I said to her. She nodded and took my hand as we walked out the door.
Eleanor and I walked to the Twickenham stadium as we only lived a few blocks away from it. We arrived and it was really busy so I picked Eleanor up and carried her. I got to the guy at the door and showed him our passes. I put Eleanor down and we walked to find Henry. We found him waiting for us. "Good luck." I told him. "Thank you." He said leaning in for a kiss. Henry gave Eleanor a kiss on the forehead and a hug to. I gave him a hug and went to find our seats. We sat down in our seats and waited for the game to start. The stadium soon fill up with lots of people. It was a full house.
The game began. Owen was playing for Saracens. It was a tight score near the ending. Owen scored a load of tries. We scored a few but not as much as Owen. The game had to go into extra time because the score was 20-20 to both teams. Exeter managed to score themselves a penalty through a scrum. Gareth Steenson scored us our 3 points we needed to win. The score was now 20-23 to Exeter. The final whistle blew and the whole team cheered.
Confetti was flying everywhere. "Eleanor, they won. Daddy won." I told her. She clapped her hands and said, "yay." I smiled. I waited for the award ceremony to finish before going to see Henry. When that finished the players went to see their families, wife's, girlfriend's and children. Henry came running over to us. I gave him a big hug and a quick kiss. "Well done." I told him. He gave me another kiss and picked up Eleanor. He gave her a hug. Henry walked around, while congratulating other players with Eleanor in his arms.
