PURPLE - Trent Alexander-Arnold

TWO

30/8/2017

Trent woke up quite early the next day and he couldn't seem to fall back asleep so he decided to get dressed and headed to the gym, not expecting to see Ella there doing chin ups. She heard the door open and let go of the bar

"What do you want?" she crossed her arms

"Some of us players actually have to work out," he said "We can't all flip our hair to get into a team,"

"But it helps if you can," she teased "And all you men have to do is tackle one player and you're in the FIFA ultimate team. Unlike you us girls actually have to work hard to make it here,"

"You expect me to believe you've done some hard work?" he scoffed "Even as a kid you cheated and got away with it,"

Trent didn't actually believe she was untalented, in fact he knew very well she was a brilliant player. But he also wasn't aware of how much work being a woman and Beckham's daughter in the Premier League caused her.

"That a challenge?" she said and he shrugged "Come on then, let's see which of us is actually more fit," he rolled his eyes and followed her to the mats, they both got into a plank position and tried to hold it for as long as possible

By 2 minutes Trent was shaking and couldn't hold himself up anymore so he dropped, Ella rolled over cheering and he scoffed in annoyance

"Told you," she shrugged "I've always been better than you and I still am,"

"As if," he said and got to his feet "You're still a cheat,"

"You can't cheat on a plank," she laughed and headed to the door "Let's see which of us makes it to the starting 11 on Friday," He silently followed her into the dining room and they went to get their food. Ella scooped herself some berries and Trent reached over her for a yoghurt

"Uh get out of my way," she said and shoved him with her hip

"Or you could get out of mine," he retorted

"This is why I can't stand you," she shook her head and went to sit at a table. Trent went to sit at another table and they ate in silence for a few minutes until everyone else arrived

Tammy, Ben and Demarai shared a look as they watched Trent and Ella glare at each other across the room. Joe and Tom arrived and sat with Trent while the other 3 joined Ella

Every time one of them asked her what had happened she just waved them off and said "ask that prick over there"

They all went to change and head onto the pitch, Trent didn't get to see Ella much because they were doing more specialised training for different positions so she was with Tammy, Dom and Dominic doing shooting practice

They finished just after lunch and quickly ate before heading to the pools, Trent looked up as Ella, Sophia and Kiera walked in wearing black one piece swimsuits, she gave him a smug look and he rolled his eyes at her

She climbed onto one of the floats and Trent saw his chance. He swam under it and pushed it up so she fell into the water, she came up spluttering

"What- Trent!" she scoffed when she saw him there grinning "You're such a dickhead!"

"What you gonna do?" he teased, she grabbed his shoulders and pushed him under before quickly swimming off to the edge. She shook her head and headed over to hot tub with Tammy, Kasey and Fikayo

"You okay?" Tammy asked her

"yeah," she shrugged "I don't care about him, he can do whatever he wants as long as he doesn't let the team down,"
