"Why are you soaked?" Trent asks as we walk down one of the corridors in the training academy.
"It's raining outside." I send him a duh look and stick my thumb over my shoulder indicating to the door leading outside.
Heavy rain pounds against the thick panes of the door. It's clear that the day is a dismal one for others but a terrific one for me. "But last time I checked you can drive." Trent smirks.
"My car wouldn't start and I couldn't be asked to see what was wrong. My main focus was making up for the mistake I made when I dumped you for a stupid reason." I look up at him with love sparkling within my eyes and he brushes a strand of my wet blond hair from my face.
"Come on I'll get you some dry clothes, and then we'll go to lunch." He wraps an arm round my shoulders leading me towards the changing rooms.
"Am I allowed to be in here?" I inquire cautiously entering the spacious room where the first team get changed.
"It's fine, no one comes in here at lunch," Trent sits down at his chair and begins to go through his rucksack. "Right, I have a Liverpool tracksuit jacket in here and I can get you some tracksuit bottoms that will actually fit you because mine will be far to big."
He chucks me a red, expensive-looking Liverpool jacket and I hold it in my arms awaiting for the trousers. Trent goes over to a cupboard and goes through many red bottoms until he finds one that looks as if it will fit me. "Thank you, Trent." I take the piece of clothing from him and look around for somewhere a bit more closed off to get changed.
"I'll guard the door whilst you get changed if you want?" Trent points towards the door and I nod feeling a tad embarrassed and shy. I watch him as he exits the changing room and I can see the shadow outside the door through the small, semi transparent pane of the double door.
I stand there for a second before going over to a corner and I begin to peel my wet clothes from my slightly cold body and put them in a towel by Trent's bag. It takes me a good ten minutes until I slowly and gently push open one of the double doors aware that Trent is standing on the other side. "Hi." I smile and he looks down at me with his gorgeous brown eyes.
"Hey, you all done?" Trent questions and I nod my head. "Come on then I am starving." He wraps his arm around my shoulders and we make our way down the corridor which leads to the canteen.
"I've missed you so much, ya know. If I hadn't have come today I wouldn't have forgiven myself for dumping you for a stupid reason." I wrap an arm around his waist and lean into him lovingly.
"I've missed you too and tonight you are gonna come back to mine and we are gonna have a night with just me and you and no one else." His fingers tuck another strand of my damp hair behind my ear.
"Okay then." I nod my head frantically and my mood lifts so much at the excitement of spending a night in with Trent.

I grasp a massive bowl of popcorn within my hands and I plop myself down in Trent's bed waiting for him to come upstairs. I turn the huge tv on that is opposite me and go onto Netflix. The door to the room opens and Trent sneaks into the bed quickly stealing a handful of the popcorn in the bowl. "What do you wanna watch?" I look up at him and hand him the remote. "I chose last time, so you can choose this time."
"Yes, we ended up watching flippin' Daddy Day Care." Trent shakes his head and focuses on the telly flicking through Netflix.
"Don't insult that film." I jab him in the ribs and he almost falls off the bed from jerking away quickly. I burst out laughing at his panic and it doesn't take long for him to go silent with annoyance.
