y/n p.o.v
today i was watching bristol bear vs sale sharks with my friend, grace. it was over half the way in and although i came to support bristol, i couldn't help but notice how cute the sharks number 7 was. the game was over and all the players were running inside to get changed. grace had gone to the bar to get some more drinks and i left to find her.
as i was making my way to attempt to find the bar, i seemed to have taken a wrong turn into an empty corridor. i walked down the stairs and as i reached the bottom i turned and collided with another body. my body hit the floor and i groaned. "oh my god. i'm so sorry" i voice said as i looked up it was one of the sharks players.
"oh. that's okay" i reached out as he extended his arm to help me back up.
"are you okay?" he asked
"um yeah thanks. sorry i ran into you, i'm a bit lost" i said
"no don't be sorry. i should be sorry, i knocked you over. where were you trying to get to?" he asked
"the bar. i was looking for my friend" i explained
"well i could show you once i've cleaned up a bit" he paused and said "if that's okay with you?"
"yeah i'd love that" i soon realised it was the guy i thought was good looking on the pitch earlier. "i'm y/n, by the way"
"ben" he shook my hand
"nice to meet you" i smiled
"you too. okay i'll be 5 minutes i just need to get changed. just wait here" he said. i nodded and he walked away, quickly looking back to check i hadn't moved before he disappeared.

ben's p.o.v
i can't believe i knocked this incredibly beautiful girl over and she actually agreed to go out with me. well technically she didn't agree to go out with me, but she said she'd let me show her we're the bar is. i entered the changing rooms and walked over to my spot. "dude, where did you get to?" jono asked who was sat next to me moving the conversation focus to me.
"nowhere" i tried not to smile or blush but i failed at both.
"lies" tom chimed in.
i rolled my eyes at him "cheers tom. i wasn't doing anything. i was just talking to someone"
"was this someone a female someone?"
"possibly. now can you guys leave me alone about it"
tom and the other boys were dressed and were leaving the changing room as i was about half way dressed.

y/n's p.o.v
suddenly i could hear a mass of chatter coming towards me. i could see ben and i smiled but he seemed not to notice me and just walked past me with the other boys. the smiled faded from my face. what an asshole. once they disappeared i left to go find grace. i found her at the bar by herself and walked up behind her "hey" i said
"oh there you are. i was beginning to get worried. what were you doing?"
"long story. they sharks player knocked me over by accident when i got lost trying to find the bar, then he said he'd take me once he got changed and then when he passed me with the other player he completely ignored me"
"that's really odd. what did he look like?"
"short brown hair, blue eyes and about 6ft2."
"oh which one?" grace pointed behind me. i was confused so i turned around to see two of one person. they looked like they were discussing something important. they were completely identical. how would i ever tell who was who.
i turned back to grace "this might be an issue" grace burst out laughing. "sshhh" i tried so stop her so they wouldn't notice me because this was embarrassing but i couldn't help but beginning to laugh with her.
i felt a tap in my shoulder and i quickly turned around to see either ben or his twin. "how come you didn't wait?" okay ben, definitely ben.
"funny story..." i explained what happened whilst grace laughed behind me, not helping at all. good new is he found it funny too, in fact so did his twin, who by the way is called tom.
ben and i ended up chatting the entire night and even tried to explain how to tell them apart but i think it was gonna take a while before i could do that. the night was coming to an end and grace wanted to go home soon so i was wrapping things up with ben.
"so... uhhh... could i get you're number please?" he nervously scratched the back of his neck.
i smiled at him "of course"
"wait... really?" he was so shocked but i don't see why because he was so charming
"yeah really. now give me your phone" i entered my number into his phone. i handed his phone back and the grin wouldn't leave his face. i got up to leave with grace but turned back to him "you better text me soon" and walked away. as soon as i got out the arena my phone buzzed
unknown number - i will
