10.6.23
i miss him more than anything now
maybe taking a break wasn't such a great idea because i miss him a little too much but i still need to stick to my word
just thinking about the next time ill see him gives me butterflies
its 2 PM
i walk into the dining room where the team is eating their meals
i quickly grab trent by the arm from his chair and move him to a random empty corridor
"hi" i smile
"hey"
"good luck T"
"still another 4 hours till kick off you know"
"yeah but its a champions league final, you can win this, you can beat bloody PSG, you can do it"
he giggles "thank you chlos"
"find me before the game yeah- i want to tell you good luck again"
"of course"
i hug him
"you mark up messi for me yeah" i tell him
"of course"
.
TRENT'S POV
i don't hate her at all for putting a bit of a break between us because now i look back i didn't really put as much effort into us than i should have and i didn't trust her
these past few days have been challenging not really speaking to her that much, but now that i see her speaking to other guys i know i have no right to worry, because its clear she won't replace me and i was simply being irrational and stupid
and i didn't cry this time because i know that no relationship is all sunshine, but two people can share one umbrella and survive the storms together
i want to win this game for Chloe, thinking about it she's been my source of happiness since we met, and i don't think i can live without her anymore. i'd die for her and id be happy that i did.
this is love
.
CHLOE'S POV
im standing outside the dressing room waiting for T, he said he'd be out in a minute
"BOO" i hear from behind me as i let out a small screech
i turn to Trent behind me dressed in his full kit, now basically ready to go out and play
"hiii"
"hey chlos"
"you know ill be there for you no matter what happens today, right?"
he nods
"also does this mean that the little break thing between us is over?" he asks
i lean up to kiss him
"you decide" i say as a huge smile forms over his lips
he pulls out the little friendship chain i had given him from under his shirt
"i haven't taken it off since you gave it to me you know?"
i reveal mine and we connect them to each other for a few seconds
"are you even allowed to play with that on?"
"i always tuck it under my shirt, nobody ever realises"
"MATE TRENT COME BACK IN ITS TIME TO GO" my dad opens the door and shouts to trent
"one more kiss for good luck?" trent asks
i nod and he places a quick kiss on my lips
"ALRIGHT ALRIGHT CHLOE WE GET YOU TWO ARE BASICALLY IN LOVE, BUT HE'S GOT A FINAL TO PLAY- ALSO SHOULDN'T YOU BE ON THE TOUCHLINE?" my dad shouts
"alright sorry father" i laugh
i smile to Trent one more time as he walks into the dressing room and i walk out to the touchline
.
86'
its still 0-0
were all so proud of how our team is playing, and trent has had Messi locked up on the right wing all game
i spoke to him at half time and he seemed knackered but he's somehow played even better since
the match is proabaly going into extra time now as we see it
final ball
Thiago crosses in in from a corner
and even though there's a defender latched onto him, Trent jumps high in the air and heads the ball to hit the ground, and bounces, and though the keeper dives in the right direction
it slots in
1-0
we've won it
limbs in the stadium as the team celebrate
i look into the big screen to see Trent's celebration replayed
he was holding up a letter c with his hands for a few seconds before he gets jumped by his teammates and the entire sub bench
my dad turns to me
"god chloe you've really changed him" he smiles as i laugh in happiness
as soon as the ball is kicked off the centre spot by the PSG team once again, the whistle blows and the entirity of the substitutes bench runs off onto the pitch
and just as my dad runs off onto the pitch, Trent runs towards me with a huge smile on his face
"i wonder who that C was for?" i joke
"hmm yeah i definitely don't know!" he says as we both burst out into laughter
i smile at him and he smiles at me
"you did it!"
"we did it!"
"well you are kind of the one who stepped on the pitch and scored the bloody winner"
"yeah but who do you think gave me the mental strength to do it?"
somehow an even bigger smile forms on my face
"i honestly can't believe i had messi in my back pocket for a whole 90 minutes"
"oh my days someone is going to make a meme out of that" i laugh
"if somone doesn't make it then i will- but im telling you Jude will do it first"
"i want to kiss you so bad but there's literaly 80,000 people watching"
"who gives a fuck T"
"wait you don't care"
"not a bit"
he launches himself towards me and kisses me
and in that moment i swear we were infinite
.
Trent comes running up to me in absolute happiness after the trophy lift
"hii" i laugh
"you won't believe what just happened"
"mhm"
"messi gave me his bloody shirt"
"no way"
"look" he says as he turns the PSG shirt around
"thats actually quite cool"
"very- child me is honestly crying on the inside"
"i love how you're so excited even though its like your fourth final and the second time you've won it"
"nah this time it feels different"
"why?"
"lots of reason actually, like you are probably one of the reasons im so happy to win it this time, also because i scored the bloody winner"
i lean up and kiss him
he takes off his winners medal and puts it over me
"mate why?"
"you look even more beautiful with it round your neck"
i smile
he drags me onto the confetti covered pitch
he takes the trophy from Hendo's hands and holds one handle and makes me hold the other
"i am shitting it right now T"
"don't worry, Robbo dropped it last time we won and it was fine"
i look at him in concern
"yeah no it chipped a bit but nobody actually knows that"
then my dad walks by
"do yous want me to take a picture"
"yeah please" T says
we lift the trophy as my dad takes a picture
.
"Chlos, come here" i hear trent calling for me
"hey, whats up?"
"Chlos, this is my older brother Tyler and this my little brother Marcell"
"hi" i wave
"and then this is my mum and dad"
"hello" i smile
"its lovely to finally meet you, we've heard so many good things about you"
i smile again
"this guy has literaly gone mad for you, he won't stop waffling about you to us" his little brother says
"Oi-" Trent says trying yo get his brother to stop
"thats quite sweet though" i smile
.
for the rest of the night, i spend the rest of the night woth Trent, and somehow our parents end up meeting for the first time, and somehow it turns out that our dad's went to primary school together
.
"Oi T, come here"
"mhm yeah"
"this idiot is my brother Adam"
"why so hostile" adam says confused
"because your an idiot- anyways thats my boyfriend Trent"
"i could tell" Adam says
"shush" i tell him as he greets Trent
.
eventually we arrive at the Team hotel where a whole party had been set up, but sticking to his word, Trent doesn't even have a sip of alcohol and we just chill outside in the dark laying on the grass and watching the stars
not far from us was Adam and he was drinking a can of Fanta but he Kept staring at us every now and again, trying to piss me off
"mans really trying to piss you off" Trent says
"he loves to mess with me thats for sure"
i drink whatevers left of my water bottle and i launch it at him
he walks up to us
"that was a terrible throw chloe"
"lets see your throws then!"
"im a bloody proffesional footballers of course my throws are better than yours"
i roll my eyes
"im sorry mate but who drinks fanta" Trent asks him
"its nice"
"Adam i know your nutritionist"
"and tell me that i can't see bloody trent eating a bag of crisps right now"
"he's my boyfriend im not going to snitch on him"
"and im your brother!"
"and so?"
"oh my days" he says storming off
"yous really have a love hate relationship thing going on" Trent laughs
"id snitch on him any day"
"whats he done to you?"
"oh my days- when i was in sixth form he was like year 8 or something like that, he saw me leaving early even though i had no lessons, and for some reason you weren't allowed to do that- he bloody snitched"
"thats stupid"
"very"
"not to mention the millions of times he's stolen my sweets"
"Marcell does that on me all the time"
"adam still does it sometimes actually"
.
"T?"
"mhm"
"why me?"
"what do you mean?"
"your a proffessional footballer, you've probably got girls lining up for you, so why'd you pick me"
"chloe, ill admit, you didn't catch my eye right away, but once you did i don't think could stop looking away- your not like the others"
"i don't know i just feel out of place, like you can get so much better that me"
"chloe, if i had a flower for every time i thought about you, i could walk in my garden forever, there's nobody better than you"
"trent, i don't think i could ever take it if you go"
"i'd never leave chloe, you know why?"
"why?"
"because i love you Chloe"
"i love you too, more anyone Trent" i say as i kiss him
