She called him overrated. He called her the worst journalist in football. The rivalry should've ended at the stadium...until they discovered they were neighbors.

Everyone knew. Their families knew. Their teammates knew. The media definitely knew. Jude Bellingham and Emersyn Clarke were football's favourite situationship long before either of them realised it. Best friends since childhood, they've spent fifteen years choosing each other. Through injuries, trophies, heartbreak, transfers and everything in between. The only problem? Nobody ever bothered to put a label on it. Now, with Emery's loan at Real Madrid coming to an end, Arsenal expecting her return, and Jude heading off to the World Cup, the life they've accidentally built together is running out of time. Because saying goodbye to Madrid is one thing. Saying goodbye to the person who's felt like home for half your life is another.

Latia "Tia" Major's leg folded beneath her before her brain caught up-a single stride from gold, one second from the Olympic trials, and a lifetime from lane eight. A shredded hamstring, six months of pool-running, and a sponsorship clause that evaporates if she can't clock sub-51 by July. Enter Aya, her best friend and human Red-Bull, who drags her to Madrid for a weekend meant to reset everything: no physio, no pity, just sun and zero expectations. The plan derails the moment Tia locks eyes with Jude Bellingham-Madrid's newly signed English prodigy-midfield, mid-match. Reckless on the ball, careful with words, impossible to read from the stands. One conversation. One night. And suddenly a secret summer stretches before them-where desire and ambition collide, and every choice could cost them everything: her speed, his spotlight, and the walls they swore never to climb. Because sometimes the heart finds its own rhythm-and sometimes, the finish line isn't where you thought it would be.

His teammate. Her older brother. Neither of them knew. What starts as a reckless mistake turns into a secret they can't seem to end. And when an older brother finds out that his teammate is sleeping with his little sister... ...everything explodes.
