Situationship. Best friend. One-night stand. Y/N Y/L/N has always known two things: football comes naturally to her, and love doesn't. Born and raised in London, Y/N grew up in Arsenal's youth academy alongside her best friend, Leah Williamson. While balancing a neuroscience degree at King's College London and a rapidly rising football career, she's built a life she can be proud of-one filled with loyal friends, late-night study sessions, and dreams that seem within reach. Relationships, however, are another story. When charming university student Callum Smith enters her life, what starts as friendship quickly becomes something far more complicated. He's everything she thinks she wants-funny, attentive, and impossible to stay away from. Yet no matter how close they become, he never seems willing to take the next step. Then there's Alexia Putellas. A rival on the pitch. A stranger off it. A single night that neither of them expects to matter as much as it does. Caught between the person who's always been there, the person she can't let go of, and the person she never saw coming, Y/N will learn that not everyone who says they care intends to stay. And sometimes the person you've been searching for has been beside you the whole time. But before she can figure out who deserves her heart, she'll have to survive having it broken first. 🥇alexiaputellas 🥇situationships

"As long as you leave me alone, everything will be fine" "Really? You want me to stay away. That's it?" "That's it." She spoke with a firm finality and hatred in her eyes. "Stay away from me Theadora" "I told you not to call me that!"

Talia Blake was the girl everyone warned Leah Williamson about. Reckless on the pitch. Sharp with her words. Impossible to control. The media called her England's bad girl, the fans called her trouble, and most people decided who she was before she ever got the chance to prove them wrong. So when Talia is called into England camp, Leah expects chaos. She expects attitude. She expects arguments. She expects the headlines to be true. But the longer Leah is forced to spend around her, the harder it becomes to ignore the cracks beneath Talia's perfect image. The unread messages she hides too quickly. The way her smile disappears when her phone rings. The tired eyes behind the sharp eyeliner. The fear she covers with fire. Talia Blake is not just difficult. She is hurting. And as England camp pulls them closer, Leah begins to realise that the girl everyone calls trouble might be the one person who has never been protected enough to feel safe. Talia is fire to the world. But to Leah, she might just be fragile.
