You and Ben were great friends. You had met through a pre-match interview and kept in touch ever since. Many people said you suited eachother, but you brushed it off, focusing on your work.
Today you were booked into a post-match conference with Ben, something you were extremely happy to do.
You had the pleasure of watching the game too. Ben scoring a goal and providing an assist which made you gush with pride for him.
It was approaching the time of the interview. You had already interviewed Southgate, Kane and the opposition manager and player, the last person was Ben.
Then you saw him jog over to where you were standing, giving you a lasting hug and smile, his cologne filling the air.
"Sorry I'm late," He apologised, you told him there was no need.
Then the camera man told you you were live, and you began your questions.
"So Ben," You smiled, "A goal and an assist for your Country! What does that mean for you?"
He smiled back, locking eye contact with you, "Ah, well you know it means a hell of a lot to me to score for my country and create chances for us to win the game. Playing or getting the opportunity to play for your country is a big deal, so this definitely means lot for me, to score the goal that ended up being the 'cushion'."
You laughed then continued further with more questions about the game. You noticed how he wasn't as shy as the first interview he did, and how now he wasn't even looking at the ground, but looking directly at you. Every word he said full of passion and dedication to the game.
"Well it was lovely having you here Ben, thank you so much for joining us," You told him as he nodded and the cameras went off.
"Was that alright?" He asked you, scratching his neck.
You nodded, "Perfect. Well I best be off, see you again tomorrow Ben! Congrats on today!"
You hugged him tightly and began walking off but you didn't get very far until someone grabbed your wrist.
"Wha-" You began, but he cut you off.
"Before you say anything. I know this maybe extremely random but the thing is ihaveasuperbigcrushonyouandhavebeentryingtoworkupthecouragetoaskyououtso..." He rambled as you laughed.
"Woah, slow down. What did you say?" You asked.
He huffed and cleared his throat, "I have a super big crush on you and have been trying to work up the courage to ask you out, so would you like to go on a date with me?"
You were stunned. Ben Chilwell had a crush on you. Wow. You kinda just stood there mouth wide open at him.
"Ummm, you know what I'm really sorry, forge-"
You grabbed his arm, "No Ben I'm sorry. Yes, I would love to go on a date with you!"
He smiled brightly and hugged you, spinning you around, "Great! Is 6pm Saturday good?"
"You gotta date," You smiled, pecking his cheek and walking away.
