Oh Robin.

Chapter 3

• Bella's POV •

I woke up to the sound of Rachel knocking on my hotel room door ready to go out and explore the beautiful city that is London.

"Good morning rachel" I said as I opened the door for her.
"Why aren't you dressed yet?!" Rachel yelled into my face. She had too much coffee to drink this morning apparently.
"I just woke up rach calm down" I said as I brewed myself some coffee.
"Well hurry up cause I have the whole day planned for us!" She said excitedly.
"Oh joy" I said sarcastically. Rachel began explaining the different things we were going to do and most them include the word shopping.

"I got these!" She said and showed me tickets to a football match apparently.
"When is this?" I asked
"Today at 6:00 pm"
"Really? Well this is going to be fun! Too bad I know absolutely nothing about football" I complained.
"Don't worry. I'll teach you. It's Arsenal vs Manchester United. It's a really big game" she explained. I wouldn't know.

"Cool. I'm gonna change and we can go check out the London eye" I said and i pulled my clothes out. I decided to wear dark jeans, a maroon sweater, and brown boots. I wore the Chanel perfume that the company gives us and it's called "black". I grabbed my coat, hotel room keys, and my phone. Rachel stopped the taxi and asked him to take us to the London eye.
"Anything for you ladies" the driver politely said and drove off.

• Four hours later •

"We have to go to The emirates now. The game starts in an hour & a half" Rachel instructed.
"Okay" I nodded with agreement. The taxi driver drove us to the emirates and there we saw a sea of people wearing red. I think both teams kits are red.
"Which team do you like rachel?" I asked her. She's always been interested in football and footballers. She would devote her life to football if she didn't work in the fashion industry.
"I like Manchester United. They're the most successful team in England's history" she explained. "Except for last season" she said and sighed.
"What happened last season?" I asked her suddenly getting interested.
"Oh god it's a really long story" she said dismissing the matter. We paid the driver and thanked him. It took a while to get to the entrance since they are many people at this game. I heard people chanting and singing and this was all before kickoff. The Manchester United fans are really passionate.

"Our seats are actually great because they are right in the front and super close to the field" Rachel told me as we walked in the entrance. We decided to buy scarves to support the team. We bought to scarves with the Manchester United logo on it and we went to find our seats.

Rachel was right. The seats were really close to the field. The atmosphere was amazing. The players walked out of the tunnel and into the field. All of the sudden I saw a familiar face that struck my mind. Who was he?

"Rachel, do you know his name?"
I asked Rachel and pointed at the tall man with the gorgeous eyes.
"Yes. That's Robin van persie. He's one of the star players. He's really famous" she replied. Wait, did she say Robin? My mind raced back to two days ago when I dropped my design papers on the floor and a man helped me pick them up. He was rushed by another man and I think his name was ander or something. Ander called him Robin. I looked at the paper that was handed to us on the way in and it said all the players that were playing today.

I skimmed through the paper and saw a Player with the name "Ander Herrera".

"Oh my god" I whispered to myself. I thought I would never see him again and he's a footballer. I was at loss for words.

"Rachel! Do you see Robin? I ran in to him at the airport" I said hoping she wouldn't be all weird about the situation.

"Ran in to him? How do you just run into van persie?" She questioned.
"I know it was him. He helped me pick up my stuff and I saw that ander guy there too" I explained hoping she would believe me already.
"Are you serious? First of all why didn't you tell me that you dropped our stuff and second of all what did he say to you?" She asked sounding curious.
"Well he only said -here you go beautiful- and when our eyes met I couldn't utter a word" I said sadly.

"Awwww that's the cutest thing ever. I heard that he doesn't have a girlfriend" she said nudging me.
"Oh no Rachel. Just forget about it and let's enjoy the match" I said trying to change the subject.
"But-"
"Rachel. It's okay. It's not like he's going to actually talk to me" I said realistically.
"You never know" she said and turned her attention back to the match. I can't keep my attention off of him. Oh dear.

~ After the match ~

The game ended 2-1 with Manchester United winning. I actually enjoyed my first football match but I couldn't stop looking at Robin. Maybe that's why I enjoyed it so much..

As we were trying to head out through the sea of fans, I was approached by a man in a security uniform.
"Ma'am, mr. Robin van persie wanted me to give you this" he said and handed me a small folded piece of paper.
"Thank you" I replied and he left.

"OMG HE SAW NOTICED YOU" Rachel screamed out like happy child.
"I can't believe this. How is this even possible?" I questioned.
"Anything is possible" she winked.

We headed back to the hotel and it was 10:03 pm. I laid in bed and decided to open the note.

Dear mystery woman,
I really want to meet and talk to you. I can't stop thinking about you ever since the airport. Here's my number and I really hope that you text/call me.
