Maddies POV:
Leah is in the living room, I'm making breakfast. She's been here for like 3 days now, it's nice to spend so much time together, normally we are both so busy but Le is injured at the moment so she's spending a bit of time here which I love.
Maddie: babe?
Leah: yeah?
Maddie: my dads coming today, he's just texted me.
Leah: oh really?
Maddie: yeah he's coming with Gem.
Leah: oh that'll be nice, not seen her in a while.
Maddie: how's the ankle?
Leah: it's okay, do you need me to do anything?
Maddie: no baby you just sit there and look cute.
Leah: that I can do.
A couple hours later after we have eaten there's a knock on my door. Leah goes to open it.
Leah: hey Michael
Michael: hi leah how are you?
He hugs her and they walk in.
Maddie: hi dad, where's Gem?
Michael: she'll be here in a second, she's on the phone to Luca.
I roll my eyes.
Michael: oi I saw that.
Maddie: I don't like him. He's going to hurt her.
Michael: he's trying, not everyone can find their forever person so quickly like you did.
Leah: woahhh forever person? I said 10 years and you're gone.
Maddie: ha ha funny.
Leah kisses my cheek as she walks past to put the kettle on. Gemma walks in a few minutes later.
Gemma: sorry, Luca was being an idiot
I snap a look at her.
Maddie: what did he do?
Gemma: Mads just chill out, I know you don't like him but he's a nice guy.
Maddie: mhm.
Michael: right, what's the plan?
Maddie: well we could go for a walk with Bruno, then get a coffee?
Michael: sounds great, we are here for your game this weekend so I'm going to take you all out for dinner tomorrow night.
Leah: Michael you don-
Michael: ah, it's happening.
He walks off to the bathroom and Gemma starts talking.
Gemma: so what's new with you two?
Leah: not a lot to be honest Gem, I'm injured at the moment so just spending a few days here whilst I can.
Gemma: cute, where is Bruno by the way?
Maddie: he's asleep on our bed, go see him if you want.
Gemma gets up and goes to find Bruno.

Leah looks at me. I wrap my arms around her neck and kiss her.
Leah: what was that for?
Maddie: just for being you. I love you.
Leah: I love you too beautiful.
She leans in and kisses me when my dad walks in.
Michael: right, we going?
Leah: yeah let's go.
We all head out of the house and to the local park. Bruno is running around like a mad man with me. Leah is walking along with my dad and Gemma.
Michael: so how's the ankle?
Leah: it's alright, can't run yet which is a bit crap but it's getting there.
Michael: it takes time Leah, just gotta be patient
Leah: yeah I know, I just miss football.
Michael: you'll be back soon enough
Leah: hopefully.

Leah's POV:
I take a photo of Maddie and Bruno, they are too cute together, I post it on my instagram story. It's too cute not to share with the world.

Later on Michael and Gemma head to their hotel, Bruno is passed out on the floor and Mads and I are watching a movie.
Maddie: babe?
Leah: yeah?
Maddie: I've had offers from other clubs.
Leah: what?
Maddie: yeah
Leah: where?
Maddie: a couple abroad and some here.
Leah: which clubs?
Maddie: Barcelona, Bayern, Man U, Man City and Chelsea.
Leah: do you want to move clubs?
Maddie: I don't know, I love Aston Villa, but I've been there for 4 years now.
Leah: so you want to move?
Maddie: I think so, I just don't know where.
Leah: no one can make that decision but you babe.
Maddie: I know
Leah: you have to pick the club that's right for you.
Maddie: where do you want me to go?
Leah: baby I can't answer that, I don't want your decision to be based on me.
Maddie: but I want to share my life with you, that's means asking you what you think.
Leah: you know where I'd want you to go.
Maddie: Chelsea?
Leah: you'd be closer to me, we could finally live together, but you'd be arsenals biggest rival.
Maddie: I know.
I look away for a second.
Leah: hey don't look away.
Maddie: what about arsenal?
Leah: what about them?
Maddie: well they made me an offer a few days ago.
Leah: what?!
Maddie: yeah
Leah: why didn't you tell me?
Maddie: because well I don't know, I just didn't think you'd want me at your club around all your friends.
Leah: baby that is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I want you around me and my friends, you've met them all, they all love you.
Maddie: we've always had our football lives separate from our personal lives, I just don't want to ruin that.
Leah: that can still happen beautiful
Maddie: can I think about it?
Leah: yeah of course you can.
My heart sinks a little bit. I want her to play football with me so much, I want her around me 24/7, doesn't she want that too?
