Beneath The Captin
Darcie Summers was never supposed to make it this far this quickly. After being promoted from a smaller club and signing for Arsenal, she walks into London Colney with wide eyes, shaky confidence, and the weight of everyone's expectations already sitting heavy on her shoulders. She is young, talented, and full of potential, which is exactly why everyone assumes Leah Williamson will take her under her wing. And Leah does. Just not in the way Darcie expects. Leah is sharp. Demanding. Impossible to impress. She corrects Darcie's positioning before anyone else notices the mistake. She calls her out in training. She pushes her harder, watches her closer, and never lets her hide behind nerves or self doubt. To Darcie, it feels like the Arsenal captain has decided she is not good enough. But Leah does not hate her. Leah sees her. She sees the player Darcie could become if she stopped shrinking every time the pressure got too loud. She sees the talent, the fear, the fight, and the girl who is trying so hard not to fall apart in front of everyone. Then one bad match changes everything. Darcie is found alone in the empty dressing room, boots still on, tears threatening to spill as the noise of the stadium fades around her. And for the first time, Leah stops being the captain demanding more. She becomes the person who sits beside her and tells her she is already enough. Between tough love, quiet moments, training ground tension, and feelings neither of them are ready to name, Darcie begins to realise that maybe Leah was never trying to break her. Maybe she was trying to help her become impossible to ignore. And maybe, beneath the captain's cold control, Leah Williamson has been feeling far more than she ever meant to show.
Until Her
Elowen Roux is twenty four, confident, stubborn, and convinced she knows exactly who she is. For four years, she has played beside Leah Williamson for both Arsenal and England. Four years of shared changing rooms, away buses, late night texts, inside jokes, stolen hoodies, and the kind of friendship that made everyone around them raise an eyebrow. But Elowen always laughed it off. She was straight. Leah was her best friend. That was all it had ever been. At least, that was what she kept telling herself. When England camp begins and a room mix up leaves Elowen and Leah sharing one hotel room with only one bed, everything they have spent years ignoring starts to feel impossible to hide. Leah is careful, controlled, and determined not to cross a line. Elowen is confused by the way her heart reacts every time Leah pulls away. Because sleeping beside your best friend should feel normal. Missing her touch should not. And when the lights go out, the truth becomes harder to avoid. Elowen swore she was straight. Until Leah stopped feeling like just a friend.
Burning Desire; an unforgettable one night stand
Hallie is a relationship type of woman, not into hookups and flings, she dates to marry. Leah on the other hand has been burnt in the past and not dating at all, she prefers hookup and benefits from attractive woman. The pair enjoy flirting and pushing the boundaries but where they want opposite things they agree it won't go any further than intense flirting and the occasional make out session. How long can they hold out for though as they are forced to see each other on a regular basis. How long until the desire for one another overrides their agreement.Complete
Couples Therapy
The night Leah moves out, there's no screaming. No slammed doors. Just a suitcase, a promise to still show up for the kids, and the heavy understanding that love isn't always enough to keep two people from breaking. After years of building a life together, Leah and Hallie are undone not by betrayal, but by grief. After devastating loss fractures the foundation of their marriage, Leah does what she's always done, she survives. She hardens. She buries her emotions so Hallie can fall apart safely. But silence has consequences. It steals ease. It steals intimacy. It steals the version of them that used to laugh in the kitchen and reach for each other without thinking. By the time Leah moves out, they're not enemies. They're exhausted. Couples Therapy follows three raw, vulnerable months of separation as they navigate co-parenting, sleepless nights alone, awkward FaceTimes, and the quiet ache of missing the person who still feels like home. Therapy forces them to say the things they've buried, about grief, about resentment, about the pressure to be strong for each other when both of them were breaking. But this isn't a story about a marriage falling apart. It's about whether two women who still love each other fiercely can learn to love each other better. It's about rebuilding trust after grief hollowed it out. Because sometimes walking away isn't the end. Sometimes it's the first step toward coming back stronger than before. © All rights reserved.Complete
Off the pitch
Leah Williamson is tired. Tired of the flashing lights, the roar of the crowds, and the heavy weight of the captain's armband. She's the face of a nation, but all she wants is to be a ghost. When she rents a modest apartment in a tucked-away corner of North London under a different name, she finally finds the silence she's been craving. Then she meets the girl in 4C. Maya is a shadow. To the rest of the world, she is a literary sensation-the girl who wrote the heartbreaking, global bestseller that defined a generation of grief. To Leah, she's just Maya: the girl with the tired eyes and the oversized cardigans who doesn't know a thing about football. For Leah, Maya is a sanctuary-the only person who sees Leah and not the Lioness. For Maya, Leah is the first spark of light in a world that went dark the day her sister died. But secrets have a way of echoing in quiet hallways. As their lives intertwine through rainy nights and shared tea, Leah must decide how long she can play a part before the world-and the truth-comes knocking on her door.Complete
