Fighting for Love

Chapter 15: Team Bonding

"What do you think?" I said as I walked out off the bathroom
I had a dark green suit on with a white buttoned up top underneath
Leah walked over and unbuttoned the first button on my white top
"You look amazing Al" Leah said, kissing me before pulling away and moving back to the mirror
"I've gone with a dark green dress today" Leah said to me looking through the mirror
"Matching?" I smirked back

——————————————————

"Finally!" We heard Katie shout as we walked up to the table
"Aw your matching" Wally said from besides Kim
I pulled out leahs chair and then sat down in mine
"So how is everyone?" I asked the table
——————————————————
"What are you getting?" I whispered to Leah. 
Leah leaned in and whispered back
"Pizza probably, why?"
"No surprise there then" I laughed

Eventually I picked the carbonara and we all waited for our food to come.

—————————————————

As a team we had decided to go to a bar after, which was in walking distance, so we started to walk there after everyone had eaten

I put my hand around Leahs waist and pulled her into me
"Are you cold?" I asked her, since she only had on the dress on and nothing to keep her warm
"Sorta"
I took my jacket off and put it around her shoulders and pulled her more tightly into me
as we walked to the bar

——————————————————

"What drink do you want?" I asked Leah leaning over the back off her chair slightly as I stood behind it
"Just a vodka Coke please"
"I'll have a beer please" Katie said from the other side off the table
"Get it yourself McCabe" I rolled my eyes
"I'll be back in a minute, okay?" I smiled down at Leah
"Whipped" I heard Steph call out
I stuck my middle finger up at her as I walked away, as a joke.

"No Leah it's-" I was cut off by a sound off some people having an augment near the bar
Leah and I both looked up to see Wally, Katie, Caitlin and Rue ( who had just turned up at the bar)

"Hold on" I said kissing Leah's cheek before going over to the bar

Just as I arrived Rue started to walk over to Caitlin "come on then" she shouted at Caitlin

I quickly grabbed her and pulled her away
"Rue is that what you really want to do?" I said as I slowly walked her away from the situation
"I'm just so mad!" Rue sighed
"You have every right too but please remember where you are and who you are" I said smiling at her before pulling her into a hug
"Anyways what are you doing here" I smiled at her
"Beth posted a picture off where you where on her close friends on Instagram and I kinda flipped and before I knew it I was here" Rue admitted
"Come on, come hang out with Leah, Beth, Viv and I" I said as I walked over to our table
"Girls, as you might have already figured out already, rue is here and she's gonna sit with us for a while" i said to the table
"I'm just gonna check Wally is alright" i said

I walked into the bathroom and saw Wally stood my the mirror
"Hey" I smiled softly walking up behind her
"You okay?" I added looking through the mirror to her
Wally turned around and hugged me as tight as she could, I wrapped my arms around her and brought her closer
"It's gonna be okay Wally" I whispered to her
"Why would she do this" Wally cried
"Only she has the answers lia"
"Maybe talk to her and figure out why it all happened" i added on pulling out of the hug, put still keeping her in arms reach
"Your a good friend, Alex, really you are" Wally said
"Come on let's get you cleared up" i said moving to get some paper towels and putting it under some water
"You don't need makeup anyways" i said as I rubbed away her mascara and make up
"Always know how to flatter someone don't you alex" wally laughed

"Right there you are" I smiled as I took a step back away from her
Wally looked into the mirror and just stared at herself
I turned her around and pulled her into a hug again
"When you go back out there you need to make it look like it hasn't effect you, okay?" I whispered
"I don't know if I can" wally said
"Stay near me and Leah if you want or use Beth as a distraction, you know she can be funny sometimes" I joked making Wally laugh slightly

We both walked out of the bathroom and back to the table
I sat down and looked over at Leah
"She okay?" She said softly
"She will be" I smiled at her putting my hand on her thigh

⚠️ Drama at Arsenal!! It's seems to be certain now that Katie and Rue have broken up as well as Lia walti and Caitlin Foord in the recent weeks. Fans have speculated that Katie and Caitlin have had a more then close friendship relationship since the breakups but nothing has been confirmed, until tonight.
In photos and videos off the arsenal squad tonight, fans believe that there might be another new couple being made.
It's videos and photos (which will be linked below) you can see rue, Lia, Caitlin and Katie being in a heated conversation until Alex Brown walked over and separated the groups and later brought Rue over to where Alex and Leah Williamson had been sat. She then spent some time in the bathrooms with Lia, which we didn't know what happened in those toilets, until I worker from that bar filmed the cctv and posted it to social media, in the video you can see the two being very affectionate towards each other and constantly hugging before Alex wiped Lias make up off her face before saying something that we can't understand from the video. Could Alex Brown and Lia Walti be a new thing?⚠️

I sat there and read a news article that had recently been posted about tonight's events.

"Hey you getting ready for bed?" Leah said as she walked into my room and stood in between my legs
"Yeah soon" I smiled softly up at her
"Could I sleep in here tonight?" Leah asked
"You don't even have to ask" I smiled as I stood up and walked away from Leah and got ready for bed

——————————————————

I laid awake as Leah slept peacefully besides me, thinking about everything that had happened tonight, how this is gonna turn into a huge problem and more intense feelings at the training ground.

I stood up and made my way downstairs and looked out off the garden window and up at the sky

After a short while I heard Leah walking into the room
"What are you doing" Leah said softly, hugging me from behind
"Nothing" I said bluntly
"Don't be like that" Leah said smacking my stomach slightly
" People think Wally and I are dating" I blurted out
"You what" Leah laughed
"There's a video off me and her in the bathrooms at the bar" i said before I was cut off
"What where you doing" Leah said cutting me off
"Nothing I swear" I said turning around holding my hands up
"Your lying I can tell" Leah snapped pushing me away
"We just hugged, I was comforting her" I snapped back
"Always an excuse with you isn't there, first molly and now Wally! How can I ever trust you!" Leah shouted
"Wow! Okay" I said walking to the front door
"Where you going!"
"Away from you" I snapped before grabbing my car keys and walking out of the house

I turned up at the house I could only think off going...
I knocked on the door
"Alex?" She said
"Hey -
