"They kinda fit together like puzzle pieces, don't they? Or like Legos, you know? Apart, they're pretty solid, but together they make somethin' really great. They build each other up."

Lucy Marie Lasso, the baby sister of Ted Lasso. Such a clich...

Hours later, the Richmond Greyhounds paraded into the locker room, cheering loudly at the top of their lungs, led by none other than the team captain Roy Kent... the grumpiest man alive that actually started the whole thing. Lucy trailed behind the team, camera in hand.
The game had been truly something to witness. According to the broadcasters and those around her, today was the first day in a long while that Roy had scored a goal for the team. In fact, it was the only goal scored the entire match on both sides. Not only did it make for the perfect photograph, but it made the match that much more "historic" for Richmond. And she got to witness it all.
Sam ran up to Lucy as they entered the locker room, lifting her in the air and spinning her around in a tight hug. As soon as her feet hit the ground, Colin hugged her from behind.
"What the hell did I say?" Lucy exclaimed when she pulled away, giving Isaac a fist bump as he jumped by. "You guys were fucking amazing out there today!"
The team continued cheering and dancing around her as she lifted her camera to snap a picture of the celebration. There truly wasn't anything like the feeling after a team won a game. It was like riding the best kind of high.
Lucy turned around to peer through the crowded locker room, seeing Rebecca and Sassy talking to Ted in one corner and Keeley giving Nate a hug in the other. Everything had been so chaotic, she didn't even realize they had managed to sneak in with the team.
Keeley looked up from her hug with Nate, meeting Lucy's eyes. She pulled away from Nate to dance over to Lucy with an excited scream that Lucy did not hesitate join in on. Lucy wrapped her arms around her, jumping up and down in time with the team near them.
"Those photos are going to be fucking epic," Keeley exclaimed when she pulled away. "I just know it."
Lucy grinned, "Not to brag, but yeah they fucking are." Keeley laughed, pulling her in for another hug. Over her shoulder, Lucy could see Roy dancing on the outside of the team huddle. She lightly patted Keeley's back, gesturing to him with a wink as she pulled away. "Go get him, babe."
Keeley smiled, just a tad bit nervously, as Lucy stepped out of the way. She watched as Keeley walked the short distance from her to Roy, tapping his shoulder to get his attention. It was interesting to watch Roy and Keeley interact. The past week alone was like watching an extremely slow dance; Keeley would say something, Roy would grin or laugh, Keeley would blush and say something else that made Roy look at her softly. It was cute, watching the beginning of something.
Someone tapped Lucy's shoulder. She whirled around, coming face to face with Rebecca and Sassy, "Hey!" She lifted her camera, Sassy immediately striking a pose as Rebecca rolled her eyes playfully with a laugh. "We broke a record here from what I've been told."
