I wake up before my alarm this morning the smile still beaming across my face. I get up and do my usual routine I'm sure yous know it by now. Once I'm sorted I go downstairs for my breakfast no one else is here and I'm actually glad about that because it means I can keep reliving last night. Every time I think I dreamt the kiss I can feel her lips on mine and I'm reminded it actually did happen. I finish my breakfast then head to the gym I figure starting early the boss might forgive me for yesterday so I jump of the treadmill and start my 10k run. Mid run fingers comes in "getting an early start Chris" "yeah got some making up to do with the boss" "yeah I heard about that are you coming for breakfast?" "I've already ate but thank you" "alright we will see you soon." With that he leaves and I keep running "Chris? What you doing?" I look to my left "oh hey boss just getting an early start making up for yesterday" "Chris this isn't needed you can't help the fact Leah fell" "I should of phoned or text" "you were looking after your charge" god the guilt is killing me I've never lied to my Sargent before I just want to come clean hopefully I can work this guilt out of me. "Have you ate?" "Yes boss" "ok well we will be in after breakfast" I continue running hoping to feel better but nothing. God it's hot in here do these people not have air con? I get off the treadmill and take my top off don't worry I have my vest under it then head to the pull up bar as I'm doing pull ups I hear people cheering I know straight away that it's my group I drop down and turn around. Yup I was right katie is wolf whistling and Leah has a cheeky smirk on her face "good morning ladies" "good morning Chris nice biceps" I have to laugh "now McCabe don't be jealous that there is someone here with bigger biceps than yours" "ha ha very funny I'm going for my breakfast" "wait miss meidema I was wondering if you have a minute?" Everyone leaves but viv stays behind "I was just wondering if everything was alright?" "Oh yeah fine thanks" "are you sure just I have been here a couple of days and you've not said 1 word to me and you barely talk" "I'm new to the club and still finding my feet and this situation is scaring me you scare me and I don't like being called miss meidema" "ok well being new I can relate to that but the girls seem to really like you. I get this situation is scary but that's why I'm here to make sure nothing happens to yous don't be scared of me I'm a pussy cat really but that's our secret. And can I let you in on another secret?" "Yeah" "we don't actually have to call yous by your last name it's a game we play only you and Leah know we just like to see how long until the rest figure it out" "so you will call me viv?" "I will call you viv" "thank you Chris" "no problem go eat and I will catch yous on the pitch" viv goes to the canteen and a few minutes later you go to catch up with the rest of the platoon. "Ah Chris glad your here today we are doing a 20k run full kit" "wowww the boss is in a savage mood today" "with 30 press-ups to finish thanks to brains big mouth" "don't even think about opening that fat mouth of yours again or I'll drown you in the ice bath" "alright gear up." We head out to the pitch area where all of our kit is and start the jog. Of course the sarge decided to skip this run for the comfort of the Arsenal buggy "sarge this is so fun I think you should join us" "and why would I do that fingers?" "Because we're a team" "yes but the benefits of being a 3 star Sargent is so I don't have to do these hideous runs anymore" we reach the final 1k "ladies the last to cross the line has to massage my feet" we all just look at each other and I bolt I feel someone pulling me back I see fingers has hold of me and is pulling me back. As he goes to run past me I kick his feet from underneath him "karma for cheating boyo" I continue running and finish first it helps to be the fastest in the platoon. One by one the rest finish with fingers coming last "sarge that's not fair Chris tripped me" "oh grow a set that's what happens when you try to cheat mate man up and get rubbing. Boss make sure them feet are extra sweaty" "they will be by tonight Chris don't worry. Right hit the showers then get back down here. The ladies are in a meeting so you have 20 minutes." I head off to the apartment and have a shower I am in my room getting ready when I receive a text
Leah - are you still in the apartment? X
Me - yeah why has something happened? Is everything alright? X
Leah - everything is fine I promise are you in your bedroom? X
Me - yeahhhh Leah what's going on? X
Leah - open your door x
I open my door and Leah is stood there. "What are you doing here?" "I just wanted to see you is that ok?" "That part is yeah but you walking around unaccompanied is not ok" "ok for that I'm sorry but I can't resist you" "I have no words to that" "good" Leah places a gentle kiss on my lips "how long until you have to be downstairs?" "I have 10 minutes left" "even better" Leah kisses me again but this time I pull her close to me. She puts her arms around my neck and I have my hand on the small of her back. The kiss is getting more heated a little rougher I'm finding it hard to contain myself. Our mouths part and our tongues now exploring each others mouths. Holy shit this is hot she is hot I'm so turned on right now. I pick Leah up walking into my room kicking the door closed behind me, I put Leah on the bed never breaking the kiss we are both fighting for dominance but I think we know who is winning. I break the kiss off we both need to catch our breath "I think we need to go downstairs before I get wrong again" "yeah plus the girls will wonder where I have got to" I help Leah off the bed picking up her crutches we make some minor adjustments to our hair then head off downstairs. I stand at the side of the pitch watching the ladies train I have a sense of pride running through me this is my team and we are going to kick ass this season I mean we already are but this league is ours. "Penny for your thoughts" I'm pulled back to the real world by Leah who is sitting behind me "I'm just thinking that's all" "about what?" "Just how proud I am to be a gunner" "hope your not getting distracted Taylor" "no boss fully focused" "good to hear miss Williamson if you are trying to distract Chris good luck once she is focused there is no breaking that" "does that mean I can keep trying?" "Be my guest" "thanks for that boss" "have fun miss Williamson" great the sarge is going to make this very difficult without even knowing it. I hear Leah get closer "don't you be getting us caught" "I wouldn't dream of it but I do like my view though" "now Leah have you been staring at my backside?" She laughs "backside really?" "Fine you been staring at my arse?" "Obviously I have. You know you have quite the pep in your step today private Taylor" "have I? I don't know why" "no not 1 single idea?" "Nope not a clue" "hey Chris we have r&r tomorrow what you got planned?" "Nothing why?" "Fancy joining us the boss is bringing in extra from the platoon to take over so we can go out for the day" "who is he bringing in?" "Poff, curry, legs and richards" "really poff he has less brains than brains there. But I think I'll pass just have a chill day listen to some music and that" "you going to speak to Emily?" "I'll text her first make sure she isn't at work" "she's a top lass Chris" "that she is I'm lucky to have her" I hear Leah get up and go inside. Shit ok that sounded bad maybe if I explain to yous first I won't fuck up my words with Leah. Emily is my best friend she has been there for me through everything for the last 3 and a half years yes ok we slept together once but that was revenge on our ex's after they cheated on us with each other but it was strange and will never happen again. I hope Leah believes me I'm not a cheater I never have been never will be. I'm a firm believer in if your not happy leave it will hurt everyone less. "Just nipping to the toilet" "no problem" I jog inside and see Leah "Leah wait up" "not now Chris" "please come with me" "I said no" "right sorry you've left me no choice" I pick Leah up and take her into the toilets locking the door behind us and checking all of the cubicles "listen to me please" "what about how your girlfriend is a 'top lass' no thanks" "she's my best friend" "awww how cute your girlfriend is your best friend" "not girlfriend Leah she is my best friend and that's all" "yeah but you can't be single look at you I don't know why I didn't think of it before" I take Leah's hand "Leah I'm very single trust me" "very single now are we?" "Well that depends on what we lead to doesn't it but I need to get back out there you coming back and keeping me company?" "Yeah I will be back out in a second" "ok" as I go to walk away Leah pulls my hand back and kisses me "now that's a distraction. I will see you out there."
