Falling for the Captain by Lucy_Keira6

When I signed my contract with Arsenal, I thought my biggest challenge would be proving myself on the pitch. I never expected her. Leah Williamson - the captain of Arsenal and England, the leader, the woman every player looks up to. She's confident, focused, and completely out of my league. Playing for England was okay- I barely had to see her, didn't share a room- didn't really speak. But now, singing for her club im gonna need someone I know and maybe, that will be her. But training sessions turn into late-night talks, glances become touches, and soon, I'm falling - fast. The only problem? Love was never part of the game plan... and in football, one wrong move can cost you everything. Contains mature content🔞!! Only read if you're okay with it!!

Scripted love by lwbaee

Hearts In The Fast Lane by WSLreader

Leah Williamson is used to pressure. As Arsenal Women's captain and an England legend, she knows how to lead a team, stay composed, and never let anyone past her guard. Samantha Jenkins is a rising star on the track, training for the Olympics with nothing but grit and speed. They meet by accident - a stolen glance across a stadium, a follow on Instagram, a bold message neither of them expects to change everything. What begins as teasing banter and stolen moments soon spirals into something deeper: voice notes at midnight, custom football boots engraved with initials, and a little family who thinks Leah might just be magic. But as the world watches them chase gold, records, and greatness - Leah and Sam have to navigate something far more terrifying than elite sport: falling in love, for real. A slow-burn, sports romance filled with chaos, tenderness, and the kind of love that changes everything - even the finish line.

Can You Hear Me? by WSLreader

At twenty-four, Ellie O'Connell has fought harder than most to make it in football. Partially deaf since childhood, she's spent years learning to read the game in her own way-through instinct, timing, and sheer resilience. Talent has never been her problem; being underestimated always has. When Arsenal offers her the chance of a lifetime, Ellie knows she belongs-but she also knows the Women's Super League spotlight will test every weakness she's worked so hard to hide. Leah Williamson, Arsenal's unshakable captain, doesn't believe in weakness. Stone-faced and disciplined, Leah leads with an iron will, never allowing herself to falter-on or off the pitch. To Ellie, she's everything untouchable: a role model, a wall, a woman impossible to impress. But as the season unfolds, Leah starts to notice the quiet strength behind Ellie's guarded exterior. And Ellie, in turn, discovers that even the toughest leaders have their own cracks, their own silences. What begins as respect grows into something far more dangerous: a slow-burning, impossible-to-ignore connection that threatens to break through every wall they've built. A story of resilience, trust, and the unexpected ways love can be heard-even in the quiet.

When You See Me by WSLreader

Leah Williamson has always known how to lead-from captaining club and country to keeping her teammates close. But when Mackenzie Hewitt joins Arsenal's first team, Leah finds herself challenged by someone she can't quite read. Quiet, blunt, and obsessively precise, Mackenzie keeps her distance from everyone, speaking only when necessary-and rarely in ways people understand. To most, including Leah, Mackenzie is "weird." Cold. Difficult. What Leah doesn't know is that Mackenzie has Asperger's and severe OCD, diagnoses she hides fiercely to avoid being reduced to labels she's spent her whole life fighting. She just wants to play football and be seen for who she is-not what she has. As frustration turns into fascination, and fascination into something far deeper, Leah finds herself drawn into Mackenzie's carefully ordered world. Through slow adaptations, missed cues, raw confessions, and unexpected tenderness, Leah begins to uncover the real Mackenzie-the one hidden beneath rigid routines and guarded silences. But falling in love with someone like Mackenzie means learning a new language entirely-one of patience, precision, and unspoken truths. And for Mackenzie, love is terrifying in its unpredictability... unless she can learn to trust that Leah wants her-just as she is. 🚨Explicit Content 18+🚨

The Final Swipe by WSLreader

Leah Williamson has always been the rock-on the pitch and off. Captain of England, a cornerstone at Arsenal, and the dependable friend everyone leans on. But lately, being surrounded by couples-Caitlin and Katie, Beth and Viv, even Alex Scott blissfully happy with Jess Glynne-has left Leah feeling like the odd one out. She's happy for them, of course. But watching everyone else in love only sharpens the ache she tries so hard to ignore: she wants someone of her own. Not just anyone, though. Leah's not after quick flings or casual headlines. She wants someone she can spoil, protect, and treat like the most important person in the world. The kind of relationship that feels like home, even in the chaos of stadium lights and tabloids. One evening, over a bottle of wine, Alex urges Leah to do something unthinkable: sign up for a dating app. Leah scoffs-she's always sworn she'd never go near one. Too risky. Too messy. Too... un-Leah. But with Alex insisting and loneliness gnawing, Leah takes the plunge. That's when she meets her. A girl with no ties to football, no idea who Leah Williamson really is, and a smile that makes Leah want to break every rule she's set for herself. What starts as late-night chats and cautious first dates soon becomes something Leah didn't realize she was craving: a chance to be vulnerable, to give herself completely, and to love like she plays-fearlessly and all in. But can a relationship born in secrecy survive under the relentless spotlight? Or will Leah's world-one she's spent years building-threaten to tear apart the one thing she's finally found worth fighting for? 🚨Explicit Content 18+🚨

Chasing The Impossible by WSLreader

On the pitch, Leah's a rock-Arsenal defender, Lionesses captain, everyone's dependable hero. Off the pitch, her life is just as steady, thanks to her best friend, the one person who's always had her back. And there's only one rule that's ever mattered between them: never get involved with family. But rules feel different when her best friend's sister-just three years younger, newly confident, and somehow... different-starts drifting into her life in ways Leah can't ignore. Their easy friendship turns into late-night talks, unexpected touches, and a connection Leah doesn't know how to name. As the season heats up, so does the tension. Can Leah risk her oldest friendship for the chance at something more? Or will she let love slip through her fingers to keep the peace? 🚨Explicit Content 18+🚨
