The Footballer's Best Friend (Erik Durm)

Ten

I've now been with Anton for two months.

The best two months of my life.

Literally I feel like I've been in that honeymoon stage of the relationship.

But everyone keeps telling me it's not going to last.

I'm not sure if I love him just yet, but I'm positive that I like him.

A lot.

"Magdie honey, you're day dreaming." My mom tells me, making snap my head up to meet my moms eyes.

"Sorry."

"It's fine, what were you thinkining about? Was is Erik or Anton?" She smiles wide and takes a sip of her coffee.

"Anton." I answer.

"What were you thinking about?" She asks.

"How long we've been together and how happy and I am with him." I answer honestly making my mom smile again.

"Well I'm happy that you're happy."

"Are you two ready to order?" The waitress in the reaturant comes over and we both nod.

"Can I have the lunch club sandwich with mozzarella, pesto, olives and sun dried tomatoes please." I say and she nods and takes down my order.

"Can I please have the lunch club snadwich with tuna mayo with a side salad." My mom orders and the waitress nods and the smiles at us.

"Is there anything else?"

"No thank you." My mom and I say at the same time making us all giggle.

My phone then beeps so I apologize to my and quickly look at the message and then smile uncontrollably when I see who the message is from.

From Anton

I think I left some things of mine at your house. I'll come over to get them tomorrow or something xx

To Anton

Okay xx

"Who is that?"

"Anton. He left some stuff at our house and he's coming to get it tomorrow." I infrom here.

"Okay."

Our food then comes so I dig into my sandwich making my mom chuckle.

"What?" I ask.

"You must be hungry." I then realise how I must have looked taking that big bite of that sandwich.

"Just a little." I give a small smile and then we both go back to eat our food.

I finish off my sandwich around the same time and I then take a big drink of my water.

"How is your book doing? Are people still buying it?" She asks and I nod excitedly.

"Yes, it's still in the top ten after two months and my publishers and in discussions about having it translated to english so it can be sold all around the world." I say super excitedly making my mom smile wide and almost scream in excitment.

"Are you being serious?" She shouts, her voice going up a few octaves.

"Yes. I nearly cried when my publisher told me."

My mom then starts to tear up making me laugh and hand her some tissues.

"Don't cry mom." She takes the tissues from me and quickly dabs her eyes before her mascara starts to run.
