Elizabeth, Alessia, Leah, Lia, Beth, Viv, Steph, and Chloe are all sat with each other on the various planes and buses they had to get to Bilbao everyone knows that the eight of them are inseparable from each other at all times,
Whilst on the bus to Heathrow Airport, Elizabeth and Chloe are having a text conversation whilst the others are playing cards or singing strawberries kisses on karaoke,
EB: so Chlo how do you feel your about to be marked by your biggest crush
CJ: What do you mean liz ?????
EB: Chloe don't act dumb I have known you for six years in those six years your top crush has been number 15 for Barcelona and number 2 for England, you gonna try get her shirt ?
CJ: I'll tryyy, what about you are you gonna try to get your idols shirt?
EB: Leah's ?
CJ: no a certain la Reina
EB: ohhhhh alexia, maybeeee I will, everyone will want that shirt so I doubt it
Elizabeth looked up from her phone to see Alessia and Leah looking at her, she realised she was smiling at her phone, thinking of playing against alexia which is a dream come true for Elizabeth, other than Leah Alexia was her dream opponent, and being on the same pitch as someone who's nickname is the queen
The pair quizzed Elizabeth on why she was smiling, Elizabeth just said she's smiling because of the game they were about to play in two days time,
When they got on the plane Elizabeth was sitting with Leah, Alessia was sitting with Chloe, Beth was obviously with viv and Steph was so with Lia,
Leah and Elizabeth were the first people in the plane so they were just scrolling through their phones, Leah was scrolling through twitter saw an article with the headline "Alessia Russo and fellow teammate spotted leaving club" it was about Alessia and Emilia Spence leaving a bar together kissing in the back of a taxi in the break they had between the league ending and the UWCL final, when Leah saw the article she looked up and saw Alessia sitting beside Chloe, so Leah got up and said to Chloe to switch seats with her as she gets travel sick where she was sitting, Chloe didn't hesitate and moved,
AR: I didn't realise you got travel sick
LW: *looks at her mad* I don't I needed to talk to you about something
AR: what
LW: I'm going to give your chance that this article I just saw on twitter is a lie and photoshopped and you did not leave the club in the arms of the one person who hurt Elizabeth, *hands Alessia the phone*
AR: I didn't mean to it just happened
LW: Alessia me and you both know that's utter bull shit, you knew full well what emilia did to Elizabeth, so you can't just say you didn't mean to go home with her because she didn't force you into the car you willingly got into that car, and thankfully Elizabeth isn't on social media for the weekend so you have the chance to tell her yourself before the world tells her that you cheated on her with her ex that did the exact same thing to her again in the public eye again, she deserves so much better than you
AR: Leah I can't tell her now do you want us to lose,
Just as Leah is about to respond, Elizabeth comes up to her and hands her a microphone and says that you're doing your karaoke song to get everybody in a hyped mood, that song is Abba's Waterloo
The duet started at the top of the plane with one of that staff members holding up the speakers whilst Elizabeth and Leah were standing up the top,
Leah started off walking down the aisle closely followed by Elizabeth,
When Leah got to the line "the history book on the shelf is always repeating itself" she stared in the eyes of Alessia,
Then when she got to the line "Waterloo, promise to love you forever more" Leah turned around and sang it directly to Elizabeth,
For the rest of the song Leah and Elizabeth were dancing up and down the aisle til they got back to where Leah was sitting beside Alessia,
The plane landed in Bilbao and they went to the hotel, Leah asked for Elizabeth to be her roommate as Leah didn't want Elizabeth near Alessia right now so Chloe stayed with Alessia,
Leah feels an urge to protect Elizabeth but it felt different to the time she felt the urge to protect her when the first Emilia situation happened......
Authors note - the next chapter will be the final in Bilbao where some shit will go down see ye then
