Ellies P.O.V

I wake up and turn to look over at Leah, she's still asleep. She looks beautiful. I find myself staring at her. Honestly, I can't believe she has stayed out here with me, and Amanda coming over too. Nobody has ever done anything like that for me before. I don't think I will ever be able to put into works just how grateful I am, to them both. I see Leah start to stir

"Buenos Dias hermosa" I say quietly

A smile appears on Leah's face, her eyes still closed.

"Dormiste bien?" I ask

"Hmmm, I don't know what your saying, but keep talking. Your morning voice, mixed with Spanish. Uh" Leah says, a smirk on her face, her eyes now slightly open.

I start laughing a little "Come here" I lift my arm up to invite Leah to get in bed with me, which she obliges.

We wrap our arms around each other as Leah nuzzles into my neck

"Eres la chica mas hermosa del Mundo" I say quietly as I kiss Leah's head.

"Translate?" She whispers

"Your the most beautiful girl in the world" I whisper

"Shut up" Leah laughs a little

"You are" I smile

"Hmmm. Impossible"

"How?"

"Because that's you" Leah smiles

"Alright, you can be the second most then" I smirk

"Tut" Leah smiles and rolls her eyes "I can't wait to actually sleep in bed with you"

"I know, me too. Won't be long though, one more sleep"

"I've also enjoyed waking up and you actually still been here" Leah laughs

"Well you should get up earlier" I laugh

"Or you should sleep later"

"Mmmm"

Leah and I lay in silence for a while, a nice silence. Both of us enjoying holding each other.

Leah and I are both showered and changed.

One of the nurses enters the room "Ellie, la policia esta aqui para verte" she smiles

"Bueno, gracias" I smile, the nurse smiles back and leaves the room.

"Babe, the police are here" I look at Leah, a small reassuring smile on my face

"I still think you should press charges" Leah says, not sounding too happy

"Leah, we've been through this"

With that, the police enter the room.

"Espanola?" He says

"Si, pero Ella no, ingles?" I ask

"No problem" He smiles

I sit next to Leah and squeeze her hand, I want to reassure her.

I speak to the police for a little while, and explain to them that I don't wish to press charges. They try to encourage me to do so, but I just don't want too. I want to move on from this and just focus on getting better and getting back to football.

"We have CCTV" he says

Leah and I both look at each other. Silence fills the air.

"I want to see it" I say quietly, my eyes still locked with Leah's.
