Clara Montgomery has always dreamed of playing for Arsenal, and now that dream is finally real. On the pitch, she's thriving - quick feet, sharp vision, and a rising star in red and white. Off the pitch, her world has always revolved around her best friend: Leah Williamson, England's captain and Arsenal's co-captain, the one person who's been by her side through every high and low.

But somewhere between late-night talks, inside jokes only they understand, and the quiet comfort of always having Leah's shoulder to lean on, Clara begins to realise the truth: her feelings for Leah go beyond friendship.

With the pressures of club football, international duty, and the unspoken line between teammates and something more, Clara must decide if risking their bond is worth it - and if Leah feels the same.

A story of loyalty, slow-burn desire, and the fine line between friendship and love.

The Faded Vows by lynk992925
52 parts Ongoing
He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.
