I met Danielle when I got traded to Arsenal almost two years ago, we quickly clicked but didn't start dating until almost a year ago. We weren't hiding from the fans so nobody was surprised when I went to see all of her World Cup games.
Today was our first game of the season, against West Ham, so as every other day I woke up before Danielle. I got up, put some clothes on, and went to the kitchen to start making breakfast.
As I was about to finish I felt Dan wrap her arms around my waist and leave a kiss in my shoulder since I'm way taller than her. I smile before turning off the stove and turning around hugging her
"Good morning babe" she tells me kissing my neck, I smile "Good morning" I crouch down a little bit before kissing her lips softly. We then eat breakfast and get ready for the game, I drive us to the stadium.
When we get there we get off the car and I grab her hand, I see the media person's and wave to them while walking inside the stadium.
We get inside the locker room and start changing, we get ready and wait for warm ups.
After warm ups we put our jerseys on and I give
Dan a kiss on the back of her hand since I'm behind her in the tunnel. As the game starts we quickly have almost full possession. After a few minutes I get the ball and I just shoot it. I look at the goal seeing the ball go past the goalkeeper hands so I smile feeling a lot of arms hugging me. After that Jill also gets a goal before half time. Once inside the locker room we talk about what we did good in the game so far.
We go back for the second half and three minutes into it I'm about to send a cross when one of the girls from the other team tackles me and I fall awkwardly on my leg. I immediately feel the pain spread through my body, I grab my leg grunting and I feel a hand on my back "Tell me where it hurts" i point to my right leg already crying because the pain is too much. I let the medic turn me around so I'm lying on my back and let her move my leg, when she moves my ankle I grab the turf letting a loud groan from the pain "You're out for the rest of the game" she tells me and helps me sit up, I then see Dan next to me and she helps the medic get me off the field and then Viv helps me get to the locker room where the medics start moving my leg to see what type of injury it is, they then wrap my ankle in ice an I just sigh knowing I'lI be out for at least a game. They gave me some pain killers and after a few minutes I see all my teammates coming un. As soon as Dan sees me she hugs me "Are you okay? Does it hurt? I swear I'm going to kill that girl" I grab her face "I'm okay, and you're not killing anyone" I kiss her cheek and the medic comes in with a boot and crutches and I sigh letting her take the ice off, I put the boot on before standing up with Dans help and grabbing the crutches "Come back tomorrow so we can see how it evolves and then we'll determinate for how long you'll be out" I nod sihging and walk out of there along side Dan.
She helps me get in the car and then she drives us home. Once inside the apartment I let myself fall on the bed feeling how the pain killers are finally acting. Dan sits down next to me and I put my head on her lap "Did we win?" She chuckles "Yes we did" I smile softly while she strokes my hair "I love you" I tell her "I love you too babe" I smile at that before falling asleep with my head on her lap.
