Shaima's POV:

After Trent had come over for the rest of the day, I was getting none stop questioning from Mason. It was, "Are you getting back together", "What if he lets you down again?", "Are you sure you want to go through this all over again?" I know what he is doing, but he needs to realize it is not a crime for the father of my child to come visit her once in awhile.

After that day Trent has become more sociable and more around. Andy called me and said that he is actually making an effort to socialize with the boys now after being miserable for 3-4 months. Which I am very happy about because I would never want him to shut out the people that love him the most. He is that type of person that at the end of the day he needs someone to lean his head on and well if he worth to push everyone away, I wouldn't know what he would do.

"Earth to Shaima" Perrie waves her hand in front of me. I snap out of my daze and she lets out a giggle. "What were you thinking about?" She continues to feed Axel.

"Is it bad if I say Trent?" I sigh as I look down at Alayna. 

"Why would it be bad?" She raises her eyebrows at me. 

"Because we arent together..."

"Shaima he is the father of your daughter. Of course he is gonna be on your mind."

"Ya I know... But now that he is wanting to come around more. It gets me thinking about a lot of things."

"Do you still love him?" 

"Excuse me?" I say in shock

"Do you still love Trent?" she asks again.

"I think I will always love him. I just don't think we are good for each other." I confessed.

"Why do you think that?" 

"Because no matter what we are fighting or I am making things into a bigger deal than it needs to be or he starts something and pretends to be the better person after things are done. Its just, I don't know how to even be in the same room as him if he is in one of his moods." 

"Shay, thats what happens to couples sometimes. Its cause you are not in the honey moon phase anymore. You are gonna fight, it happens. The amount of times that Alex and I have fought or I have gone to my mums to just a get a breather from him is probably in the thousands by now. You cant let that determine the end of your relationship."

"But what if we really aren't good for each other?" I ask her

"You gotta decide that for yourself cause everyone else can say otherwise. But at the end of the day, its your decision."

She's right, it is my decision and well I think I had finally made one. 


Trents POV: 

"Shut up for a second Robbo" I yell in the dressing room because he was talking like a maniac and I couldn't hear a word coming out of Shay's mouth.

He stares me down then gets into a conversation with Virgil but in a inside voice. Its been a few months of things going pretty well when it comes to us parenting Alayna, I just hope it stays this way. Our last game is coming up and well I am hoping that she will be there by my side as we do our final walk of Anfield before the break. 

"As you were saying?" I laugh and her smile beams through the screen. 

"So the last game is coming up? You excited?" she asks.

"Well its a big game, hopefully villa will come through for us." I confess

"Stevie G better pull through," she laughs. I smile wide. I love that laugh.

"So will you be there?" I finally ask.

She sighs, oh no. "I dont know yet." she says softly. "Mason wanted me there for his game as well, and well so did Declan." she scratches her head. 

"Oh well, I really hope you come Shay. It would mean the world to me if I had both of you guys there." 

"If I came, do you think we can stay the night before? It will be easier for me so we dont have to leave early.." I smile. She is considering it..

"Shaima you are always welcomed" I let her know and you can see a small blush creep on her face. 

"I'll think about it, but for now I have a child to take care of. I'll call you later tonight."

"Okay, dont forget or i will hold it against you" I play and she giggles. 

"ya ya byeeeeee" she smiles

"Bye Shay" she hangs up "I love you" I say quietly. But obviously not quiet enough because the boys started to mock me. "Oh fuck off" I throw my tape and we all started heading on the field. I really hope they come.

Shaima's POV:

"Mason can I talk to you?" I knock on his door as he just finishes changing. 

"Whats up?" he says as he puts his shirt on. 

"How would you feel if I go to Trent's game?" I ask him. 

"Oh, um well I would love for you to be at mine..." He trails off. 

"Ya I know but he really wants Alayna there,  especially because of the walk after," I start to say but he cuts me off.

"Well where do you wanna be? Which game would you prefer going to?" He asks me. 

I have to be honest with him. If I don't its going to kill me. "I'm sorry Mason," he already knew the answer. 

"Go, be with Trent. I know thats where you wanna be." 

"Mase, if I can be in two places I would." I try to tell him. 

"Well you can't and you made your choice. Its okay." he comes up to me and kisses my forehead. "I'll go get supper ready." and he starts to make his way downstairs. 

If this was his reaction to me going to his game, how would he react when I tell him I want to go home?

Trents POV: 

She didn't stay the night. Of course she had chose Mason over me. It's been like that for years. Well its become more real now than ever. Music is blasting in the room. The boys are getting prepared. Tonights game can mean everything to us. Nothing is gonna distract me from it. 

"So is she here?" Andy asks

"I don't know, she had asked to stay the night last night if she was going to come but she never showed." I sighed

"Sorry man, I really hoped she would be here." he pats my back.

"Ya, so did I" I sighed. 

Jurgen had made his way in to go over some things before we head to the field to do our warm up. 

As soon as he was done talking a small knock came from the door. My heart started racing. I couldn't see who was at the door as it was blocked off but I heard them. More specifically, I heard her. "Am I too late?"

"You are never too late," Jurgen laughs and lets her in. There she is with Alayna in her arms, both wearing their liverpool kits. "Shaima the floor is yours."

"Oh okay, well I dont really have much to say but to remind you guys to go out there and kick ass. I know how much this game really means to you guys and I get it. But at the end of it, it depends how much you guys want it. Not only individually, but how much you want it as a team. You guys worked your asses off this season and well there shouldve been some games that you should won but did tie and thats okay because I know how you guys are and you will go leave everything out on the pitch tonight no matter what." She smiles at us and then Alayna starts to screech in her arms which causes me to laugh. 

"Wise words from a wise women" Jurgen says from the side. "Now take him outside if you wanna talk cause I know these boys like their vulger music."

They laugh and I follow her outside of the rooms and sit on the bench. "Everything okay?"

"Ya I just wanted to ask you something," she tells me. 

"Okay, is it bad?" I ask her 

"Well no, if you dont take it that way" she laughs. "Um how would you feel if we came home?"

"Wait what?" I say in shock

"I dont feel right anymore. You not being there or being too far. I want you to be able to see her first steps, her first words, her first explosive diarrhea" she laughs. "I want you to be there Trent."

"Shaima I dont want you to come back cause you feel like you have to..."

"No, I want to come home Trent. I want to come home." She smiles and I grab her hand tight. "So, what do you say?" 

I look at her in awe, I finally get my queen and princess back. I finally get them back.

I smile at her.

"Hell yes."
