Been You (Trent Alexander-Arnold story)

Chapter 14: Stop Exposing Me

——-

Shaimas POV:
Trent and I pulled up to the training grounds and headed to the weight room.

"Hey Shay!" Andy shouted as we entered and made his way over to us

"Hey Andy" I laugh when he pulled me into a hug.

"Are you working out with us?" He asks

"Um well i thought you were on the field today but I'm not properly dressed for it"

"We can get you clothes, what you say?" Andy smirks

I look over to Trent who had a smile on his face "come on, we won't kill you" he laughs

"Fineeeee," I laugh "go get me clothes dork" Andy runs the other direction into a closet. I shake my head and turn to Trent.

"You'll be okay" he laughs

"Oh I'll know I'll be fine, just the matter of you keeping up" I smirk and Andy comes back with a pair of shorts and a Liverpool quarter zip.

"My lady, changing rooms and washroom are just around the corner" he hands me the clothes and I smile

"There's no way you'll beat us in our own workout" Trent let's out a stifle laugh

"Baby, you have no idea" I smirk and head for the change rooms.

Time to show these athletes how it's done.

Trents POV:
Shaima walks out of the washroom wearing the attire Andy gave her and might I just say... she's looking hot as ever. She walks up and realizes I'm staring "what?" She laughs

"Oh nothing, just admiring your beauty" I smile

"Oh shut up" she playfully rolls her eyes and hits my chest.

"Okay guys listen up, Shaima is working out with us today so let's show her hospitality and if she needs help don't be assholes and help the lady out"

"Shaima you ready to shred" Virgil says from across the group

"Virgil I was born ready" she smirks

"Then let's go girl!" He says and she walks over to him and I just laugh.

"Bro go with her!" Andy exclaims

"No let her do her thing, I'll just watch and see how she does" I told him and he just shrugged. I start off with the bike with Shay and Virgil who seem to be having a good time.

"Watch out Trent I'm going to be her new favourite" Virgil chirps.

"Bro you're already her favourite" I laugh and Shay reaches over to increase my intensity. "I just force her to say it's me" Virgil let's out his laugh and Shaima smiles over to me

"Well at least we are on the same page" she shoots me wink.

"Oh shut up you dork" I laugh and turn up her resistance. She glared at me and does the same thing.

"Guys 2 minutes up" the trainer indicates and we get off our seat.

"You know Shaima, when you were gone trent was a whole different person but when you came back its like he changed" Virgil spoke up

"I'm hoping for the good?" Shaima laughed and Virgil immediately nodded

"Oh yeah, like he would try to hide how moody he was but honestly he wasn't fooling anyone"

"Okay let's not act like I'm right here, and stop exposing me" I laugh

"No no keep exposing him, he gets very awkward and I love it" I reach over and increase her resistance once again "Trent John Alexander Arnold I swear to god" she groans and does the same to my bike

"What?! You said you can keep up" I laugh

"K guys your done here, go to weights" Jamie our trainer instructed us and we got off the bikes.

Before we walked over Shaima checked her phone and instant fear washed her face. "Shay what's wrong?"

"He went to see her, he went to see my mum. Raph said she's freaking out but won't tell him what happened"

"Hey look at me, it's okay we will go over to her place right after okay. He can't do anything to you guys." I try to reassure her.

"What if you're wrong Trent" she asked and I sighed

"I don't know, I really don't know"

We are definitely in for it now.

Declan's POV:
Mason and I walked back into my flat to only be encountered by Jonathan and my father.
"Um hello," I say a little awkwardly

"Just the boys I wanted to talk to" Jonathan smirked.

I looked over to my father who sat there in silence. Something was up.

"Mason, Declan I just wanted to clarify some things with you guys" Jonathan started "when you both and Shaima were growing up, it was a nice childhood no?"

"Ya of course it was good why?" Mason asked

"Well I've always had a plan for you three, Mason and Shaima are suppose to get married. Declan and Lauren to get married. All the family businesses are suppose to combined and become the hierarchy. Now that Shaima and Trent are together things are being ruined. The money I had put into this deal will all go to waste." He snarled the last part

"Jonathan not to be rude or anything but you can't control your daughters life, she's her own person and also not your biggest fan" Mason retorted

"Which is why I need your help, I will be getting my family back. But I need you to make her trust the process"

"The hell we will," I chimed in "there's no way in hell that we will help you in this"

"Declan if you don't then we all go bankrupt" my dad adds in

"And you have us, you act like we don't make money we can handle these kind of things, after what he had done to Shaima there's no way in hell that we will help him with anything"

"You hurt her, you beat her, verbally abuse her, almost kill her and you would think I would give a shit about you trying to get your family back. I have to much love and respect for Shaima to let that happen." Mason glares at Jonathan

"I'm just saying, if you both know what's good for her then you will make this happen" he gets up from his seat and turns to my dad "have a good evening Sean" and leaves my house

"Dad don't worry, if anything happens I'll be there to help." I reassure him

"Ya but I'm just worried for Shaima now, I know I can count on you. But who knows what he can do next" Mason and I look at eachother and nod

"We have to let Shaima know," Mason says "I'll call Trent"

I nod and look at my phone. She doesn't deserve this after everything she's been through, we can't let him hurt her. Not again.
