This is based on the same prompt as "Cold Shoulder" and "Surprise". There are three total versions and all can be read independently. The other parts can be found below.
Cold Shoulder (Original)
Surprise (Fluff)
Y/n was in the bedroom she shared with Emily, her girlfriend of exactly one year. Y/n had gotten the day off work to surprise Emily for their one-year anniversary. Emily had left early that morning for training, then she had recovery, so Y/n knew she had a bit of time to set everything up.
She had scattered rose petals on the floor of their bedroom, bought Emily's favorite flowers and placed them in the center of the bed. She had gotten the ingredients needed to make Emily's favorite meal. Y/n had it all planed to make the day special.
Emily was Y/n first real relationship. Not many people had stayed with Y/n for long. She had been ghosted way too often in her life but Emily wasn't like that. Emily stayed. When Y/n got comfortable with Emily she told her of her ADHD. Emily wasn't surprised and had embraced Y/n. The care Emily showed broke Y/n's tough exterior she has had to use all of her life, as she fell into Emily's arms in tears.
That had been three months ago.
Emily and Y/n have been going strong since. The only thing that concerned Y/n was that in their year of dating, Y/n hadn't really met any of Emily's friends. The only one she met was Rose as she is not only Emily's teammate but also her best friend. Other than Rose, Y/n hadn't met anyone else and she doesn't understand why. Emily won't say.
Until today.
Y/n had put the final touches on their shared bedroom when she heard the front door open. She went to call out to Emily but stopped at the other voices she heard. She slowly walked to the bedroom doorway and poked her head out the door, surprised with the amount of people she saw walk into her apartment with girlfriend. Y/n recognized them as Emily's teammates, some national and some club.
Emily leads the group into the living room. Rose, Kelley, Lynn, Trinity, Jenna, and Lindsey following behind. Y/n went to go finally introduce herself to the others but stopped when she heard her name.
"Sonny you’re still with that Y/n chick?" Kelley asks letting out a sigh when she sees a sweater she knows isn't Emily's hanging on the chair. Emily nods as she takes seat on the couch next to Rose and Kelley. Lindsey sitting in the loveseat with Lynn as Trinity and Jenna take a seat on the floor in front of Kelley and Lindsey, leaning back against the couch.
"Yeah? Why wouldn't I be?" Emily asks.
"Don't you think she's a bit clingy?" Kelley asks. Emily looks at her confused.
"Well yea…but why does that matter?" Emily questions looking between her friends and teammates. The others in the room share a look.
"She doesn't seem like your type. She's clingy, doesn't go out and drink, she seems…" Lindsey trails off.
"Boring?" Jenna supplies. Lindsey nods pointing at Jenna.
"Exactly! She's boring and you're frat daddy jr.! You're the complete opposite of boring! You party! And drink! And go out!" Lindsey says nudging Emily with her foot. Emily rolls her eyes leaning back in her seat.
"I mean I guess you guys have a point. She can't drink on her medication. And she gets anxious in public settings like that. I do miss partying…" Emily says sadly realizing how much she has missed her friends. Trinity nods jumping up.
"Exactly! Ditch her and let's go party! We can deal with the hangovers and consequences tomorrow!" Trinity exclaims. Emily looks at the younger girl, chuckling as she dances around Emily's living room.
"I mean I could…she's supposed to have this big work thing anyway. I could use a night away from her clinginess. I understand she had a bad childhood but she suffocates me at times! I just want a quiet night in but she doesn't shut up about some new thing that has captured her attention." Emily lets out a breath happy to finally say the words out loud. Y/n's breath hitches as she hears Emily's words. Tears well up in her eyes. She had thought Emily was different from her parents.
"Em…" Rose starts as she makes eye contact with Y/n when she peeks out from the corner, but Emily keeps going.
"I mean I get she has ADHD but this medication she's taking is supposed to help with her hyperactivity but she almost seems worse. And she's not supposed to drink on it so we can never go out. It's always what ever she wants to do."
"Em!" Rose tries again, but Emily continues.
"I mean I make a suggestion and she says no, that the environment would overstimulate her or some shit. I'm more than down to ditch and party." Rose lets out a sigh giving Y/n a sorry look. Rose had heard about Y/n's life and knows it wasn't easy for the girl. Emily is undoing all the work therapy had done for Y/n. When Emily begins to rant about Y/n's childhood Rose puts a stop to it.
"EMILY!" Rose screams finally shutting the blonde up.
"What Rose?!" Emily asks. Rose motions with her eyes toward the hall leading to Emily's bedroom. The others turn and look going quiet at the sight of Y/n standing there is a hoodie and a pair of jeans with tears in her eyes. Emily immediately stands up moving towards her girlfriend.
"Y/n/n I-" Y/n cuts Emily off.
"Really?" She asks, thankful her voice sounds stronger than she feels. "I open my heart to you. Tell you about all the shit I had to deal with growing up from my parents and this is what you do behind my back?" Y/n says, too calm for Emily's liking. Emily opens her mouth to try and explain but no words come out.
"Look Y/n-" Y/n turns sending Kelley a glare that shuts her up immediately.
"I don't want to hear from any of you. I trusted you Emily. I told you about the abuse I received from my parents and you go and spill that to your friends? You don't do that to your partner. You don't do that to anyone. It's no wonder your ex left you. You’re a horrible person Emily Sonnett. You're a horrible and single person." Y/n spits. Emily's eye's widen at Y/n's words.
"Y/n! I didn't mean any of it like that! I just-" Emily tries to explain. Y/n holds her hand up stopping the blonde from digging herself in a deeper hole.
"I don't want to hear it. We are done. I'll be back tomorrow for my things. I never want to see you again." Y/n spits turning towards the door to the apartment. She stops just before opening the door, turning to glance at Emily. "Happy anniversary by the way." Y/n says before walking out the door and out of Emily's life.
The room stays silent for a few minutes as everyone tries to grasp what had just happened.
"Well…that went well." Jenna says breaking the silence. Kelley glares at the girl throwing a couch pillow at her.
Y/n was in the bedroom she shared with Emily, her girlfriend of exactly one year. Y/n had gotten the day off work to surprise Emily for their one year anniversary. Emily had left early that morning for training, then she had recovery so Y/n knew she had a bit of time to set everything up.

That had been three months ago.
Emily and Y/n have been going strong since. The only thing that concerned Y/n was that in their year of dating, Y/n hadn't really met any of Emily's friends. The only one she met was Rose as she is not only Emily's teammate but also her best friend. Other than Rose, Y/n hadn't met anyone else and she doesn't understand why. Emily won't say.

Y/n had put the final touches on their shared bedroom when she heard the front door open. She went to call out to Emily but stopped at the other voices she heard. She slowly walked to the bedroom doorway and poked her head out the door, surprised with the amount of people she saw walk into her apartment with girlfriend. Y/n recognized them as Emily's teammates, some national and some club.
Emily leads the group into the living room. Rose, Kelley, Lynn, Trinity, Jenna, and Lindsey following behind. Y/n went to go finally introduce herself to the others but stopped when she heard her name.
"Sonny you’re still with that Y/n chick?" Kelley asks letting out a sigh when she sees a sweater she knows isn't Emily's hanging on the chair. Emily nods as she takes seat on the couch next to Rose and Kelley. Lindsey sitting in the loveseat with Lynn as Trinity and Jenna take a seat on the floor in front of Kelley and Lindsey, leaning back against the couch.
"Of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?" Emily asks confused. The girls share a look. "Guys?" Emily asks noticing the look.
"We just don't think she's good enough for you. You haven't gone out with us in forever because of her. Today is the first time we've hung out in months. And that's only because we have camp next week." Lindsey says.
"You haven't even been in the country, so it's a little difficult to hang out with you." Emily jokes earning laughs as Lindsey rolls her eyes.
"True for Lindsey, but we," Lynn says gesturing to the Gotham girls, "live in the same city and today is the first time in weeks we've gotten to hang out outside of training." Lynn says.
"Really?" Emily asks softly as she leans back in her seat thinking about what the girls are saying. The others aside from Trinity nod agreeing with Lynn.
"Really. You've missed team dinners for this chick and you haven't even been with her for a year. I miss my frat daddy jr." Kelley pouts. Emily rolls her eyes nudging Kelley as she lets out a laugh.
"I'm still frat daddy jr. I'm just taken." Emily says as though it's that simple. "I'm finally happy in a relationship for once. She is a great person, and sure she can be annoying and clingy at times but I'm the same way with her." Emily explains a smile on her face. Y/n mirror's Emily's expression still hidden in their bedroom.
"Ugh. Gross." Jenna and Trinity say together, the others laughing.
"Oh please, you'll be in love one day." Emily says rolling her eyes not realizing what she's said. Y/n lets out a gasp that goes unnoticed by the other gasps the others let out at Emily's confession.
"Love?" Lynn asks in shock. "You've been with this girl for what? Four months? And you say you're in love?" Lynn continues. Emily nods a love sick smile on her face as she herself comes to the realization of what she confessed.
"Yeah. I really am." She says pulling the collar of her sweatshirt up to hide her blush. Y/n smiles at the sight realizing the hoodie Emily is wearing is one she thought she had lost.
The girls continue to tease Emily so Y/n takes that as her queue to step out.
"Em?" Everyone goes quiet as Y/n steps out. Emily's eyes widen in shock at the sight of her girlfriend.
"Y/n/n?" Emily asks standing from the couch. "W-What are you doing here?" Emily questions fidgeting with the hoodie sleeves. Y/n chuckles.
"I live here remember?" Y/n jokes, a couple of the girls laugh softly at Y/n's comment.
"But I thought you had that big work meeting." Emily asks, a confused look on her face that Y/n finds adorable.
"That was yesterday babe. I took today off." Y/n explains, Emily continues to look at Y/n in confusion.
"Why?"
"Em…do you know today's date?" Y/n asks a small smile on her face knowing it will hit Emily eventually. She's proven right a second later when Emily's eyes widen in shock.
"Oh my god!" Y/n chuckles, giving Emily a small nod. The girls look between the couple in confusion.
"Anyone want to fill us in?" Rose asks. "Hey, by the way Y/n/n." Rose adds. Y/n turns to Rose giving her a smile.
"Hey Rose. It's our anniversary." Y/n states. The girls sit in silence for a second, some from shock at the fact Emily had been with someone that long, and from shock that Emily seemingly forgot it was her anniversary. After a second they all turn to look at Emily who is still standing in shock.
"Emily! You forgot your anniversary?!" Lynn exclaims, being the first to break the silence. Trinity follows.
"You guys have been together for a year?!? We only found out a couple months ago!" Emily looks a bit sheepish at Trinity's comment.
"I didn't want you guys to talk me out of dating or scare her away when we did start dating…" Emily trails off. Y/n chuckles moving to stand with Emily placing a hand on her girlfriends waist trying to offer her comfort knowing Emily is nervous. "Which is also the real reason why you haven't officially met Y/n yet." Emily adds, causing the others to turn to her aside from Rose.
"You told us that she was always busy, that's why she never came out with us!" Jenna exclaims. Emily shrinks back behind Y/n who easily hides Emily's 5'7" frame with her 5'11". Y/n chuckles.
"While I didn't know why I never met any of you besides Rose, that reason isn't wrong. I'm usually fairly busy with work but not every time you guys have gone out." Y/n explains, reaching behind her back for Emily's hand, which she finds easily. Emily leans forward resting her head on Y/n's back letting out a breath before peaking out from behind her girlfriend.
"I also really liked her and didn't want you guys to scare her away from me. I knew she was the one when we met." Emily sheepishly explains, not one for sharing her feelings. Y/n squeezes Emily's hand offering her quiet reassurance.
"Em…" Lindsey started, "We would never. We'd just make sure she was good enough for you. You deserve someone as great as you. We just want the best for you and if that's Y/n then we would never steer you away from her. We're sorry we thought otherwise." Lindsey explains. The others nod in agreement.
"Yea…sorry about that. But we can tell she cares for you Son, just from the past five minutes. I've never seen you this happy before Son. I'm happy you found Y/n. Even if I didn't seem that happy earlier." Kelley says thinking of her earlier comments, before turning her attention to Y/n. "And thank you for taking care of her. She's a special one." Y/n smiles glancing at where Emily has her hand that is not clasped in Y/n's wrapped in the back of Y/n's t-shirt, still mostly hidden from the others.
"She really is special." Y/n says, looking down to where Emily is tucked into her side. "That's why I love her." Y/n whispers for only Emily to hear. Emily pulls back from Y/n to look her in the eyes.
"You what?" Emily asks, voice full of emotion. Y/n smiles letting go of Emily's hand to turn and face her fully. Y/n reaches up cupping Emily's face in her hands, brushing away the fallen tears with her thumbs.
"I love you Emily Sonnett." Y/n says smiling at Emily, tears building in her own eyes at seeing Emily so emotional. Emily having never showed this much emotion in front of Y/n.
"I love you too Y/n Y/l/n." Emily says before leaning in to kiss Y/n. The couple easily get lost in the feeling of each other completely forgetting about the girls scattered around their living room. Well, they forget until…
"GET IT SONNETT!!!" Trinity, Kelley, Jenna and Lindsey exclaim. Rose and Lynn sit back laughing. Emily and Y/n break apart from the smiles that appear on their faces. The two turn laughing at the actions of the four. Y/n moving to intertwine her hand with Emily's.
"Now if you guys don't mind showing yourselves out. We have an anniversary to celebrate." Y/n says pulling Emily towards their bedroom. Emily blushes, not used to being on this side of things, as she hears the others making obscene noises. Y/n stops just outside their bedroom door that she had closed before she made her presence known to the others, speaking when she hears the door to their apartment close and hears the noise stop.
"Babe?" Emily questions when she sees the smile on Y/n's face. Y/n lets go of Emily's hand to take hold of Emily waist. Emily looks at Y/n in confusion wondering what's going on.
"I wanted to surprise you…and thank you." Y/n whispers at the end, looking to her sock covered feet. Emily brings her hand to cup Y/n's cheek.
"Thank me?"
"For being with me. For dealing with me." Y/n looks Emily in the eye. "With my past partners when I had told them about my ADHD they would make fun of me or leave me not wanting to deal with it. But you didn't. You embraced it and me, even when I pulled you from your friends you still chose me. No one else would have. So thank you." Y/n says releasing Emily to wipe the tears that fell, but Emily stops her, bringing her other hand up to brush away Y/n's tears.
"Baby you never have to thank me." Emily leans up to press a kiss to Y/n's nose bringing a smile out of her girlfriend. "I love you for all of you. Besides, now that some of the girls know you we can cause some chaos together." Emily jokes. Y/n laughs pulling Emily closer to her, Emily adjusting her grip so her arms wrap around Y/n's neck.
Y/n and Emily stand there for a while wrapped up in the comfort the other provides, lovesick smiles on their faces. Emily pulls back first looking Y/n in the eyes.
"Now I believe we have an anniversary to celebrate." Emily whispers removing her arms from Y/n's neck to take her hand. Emily open the door to their shared bedroom stopping in her tracks at the scene before here. "Oh Y/n/n…" she trails off as she takes in the sight of the decorations Y/n had put up.
"I love you and wanted to celebrate our first anniversary right." Y/n whispers wrapping her arms around Emily's waist from behind. Emily leans into Y/n's hold tilting her head back to look Y/n in the eyes.
"I love you too, now…" Emily pulls herself away from Y/n reaching for the hem of her hoodie as she pulls it up and over her head. Y/n's eyes land on Emily's sports bra covered chest. "I love the decorations, but I have something else in mind for a celebration." Emily says seductively, reaching for the button of her jeans. Y/n rushes over lifting Emily and throwing her on their shared bed eliciting a squeal from the shorter woman.
TIERNA'S OFF THE SEI LIST. SO IS SAVY FOR ANGEL CITY. also, we have a new chelsea girly joining us at gotham. guro reiten. gabi portilho is now at san diego wave. ella stevens and josefine hasbo are both now at boston legacy.
I SAW!! I'M SO HAPPY FOR BOTH OF THEM!!! seeing both back on the pitch the past couple of weeks is amazing!
when I tell you my jaw dropped at the news of Guro coming to Gotham, it would be an understatement. I never pictured her coming to Gotham. though from the sounds of things, more Chelsea players are to follow...👀👀
Those three leaving hurt a bit more than anticipated. Ella and Josefine, I get it since I don't remember either of them getting much playing time last season, but Gabi was a bit of a shock, but if she's happy in San Diego, I'm happy for her!
Sorry for such a late reply to your ask! I've been working through some personal things and haven't been online much in recent weeks. I'm hoping to get back to normal-ish soon!!!

Word Count: 1.6k
Warnings: None
This will be my last post. Thank you guys for reading!!
"Babe, have you seen my water bottle? I'm running late for training!" Jenna calls out to her wife, rummaging through her kit bag for the bottle, already dressed in her training kit to save time for when she eventually gets to the training grounds.
"Jen, honey, you asked me to wash It yesterday when you got home. It's right here." Y/n says holding the bottle in her hand that she grabbed from the drying rack in the sink, still dressed in her pajamas. Jenna stops her search, turning to her wife, a sheepish smile on her face. She sets her bag aside moving to grab the bottle from her wife.
"What would I ever do without you?" Jenna asks, bottle now in hand as she stands on her tip toes to press a kiss to her wife's lips in thanks. Y/n rests her hand on Jenna's waist, thumb brushing over the skin exposed from underneath Jenna's training top.
"You never have to find out." Y/n says as the two part, "Now hurry before you have to run laps." Y/n chuckles pushing Jenna away slightly. The younger one nods rushing off to fill her bottle before she leaves. She presses one last kiss to her wife's lips as she passes by her, grabbing her bag and rushing out of their shared apartment. "Be careful driving!" Y/n calls after Jenna hoping she heard her.
The couple have been in London a couple of months since Jenna officially signed with Arsenal in the January transfer window. Before that both were living in New York City while Jenna was playing for Gotham. Since Y/n works as a ghost writer she can work from anywhere in the world at anytime. Plus with her latest book being published recently she has a lot more free time. Which has helped with moving and helping Jenna get everything settled in London.
As Y/n moves to sit on the couch in their living room, tea in hand, to watch her show while she waits for Jenna to get back, she trips over something luckily catching herself before she spilt any of her tea or fell. She glances down, rolling her eyes when she spots Jenna's cleats on the ground in front of the couch. They must have fallen out of her kit bag when she was searching for her water bottle.
"That woman would lose her head if it wasn't attached," Y/n mumbles setting her tea on the coffee table. She rushed to their shared room throwing on a pair of blue jeans and a plain dark gray t-shirt with her black leather jacket and a pair of socks before rushing back to the living room. She grabs Jenna's cleats, as she moves to the front door slipping her sneakers on before grabbing her wallet and keys, thankful for thinking to have both her and Jenna's cars shipped to London from the states as she locks the front door rushing to her car. She quickly gets in the car setting Jenna's cleats on the passenger seat, buckling her seatbelt and pulling out of their driveway and making her way to the Arsenal training grounds.
After the short drive, she parks in an open spot before rushing into the building, slipping through the open door behind what looked to be a staff member having forgot the card she was given that allowed her access to the training center, hoping to be able to find Jenna or where the locker room is. Sighing in relief when she spots two blondes in what looks to be a lounge room with a chocolate lab settled on the couch between the two enjoying the attention they're receiving as the two girls converse. She quickly walks up to the duo clearing her throat to gain their attention. The two turn and look at Y/n in confusion.
"Uhhh hi, I'm looking for Jenna?" Y/n says, though it sounds more like a question, as she shifts on her feet nervously at the looks she's receiving from the two. Jenna's boots firmly in her hands, resting behind her back. The duo stands from their seats, the dog looking at the two in confusion as to why the pets had stopped.
"Who are you? And how did you get in here? You need a badge to get in," The shorter of the two blondes asks, moving to likely call security, causing Y/n to panic slightly. Though before Y/n can respond a new voice joins them.
"Y/n?" Y/n breathes a sigh of relief at the voice, the blonde duo in front of her turning to look at their head coach, confused on how she knows the intruder. "Is Jenna okay?" Renee asks wondering why Y/n was at the training center.
"Jen is fine," Y/n holds up Jenna's cleats, "She left her cleats at home so I came to drop them off. I was trying to ask these two where to find Jenna but thinking about it I probably seemed like some crazed fan who snuck in to them." Y/n chuckles nervously, shifting Jenna's cleats to one hand as she rubs at the back of her neck with the other in nervousness.
"Beth, Alessia I can assure you Y/n is not some crazed fan." Renee says turning to the two reassuring them. The two nod still looking weary of Y/n. "Y/n follow me, I can show you where Jenna is. You two come with me as well, not only because practice is starting soon but also so Y/n only has to officially introduce herself once," Renee says turning to lead the way to the locker room, the three following behind. The lab staying where they lay, looking ready for a nap.
Renee pushes open the door to the locker room, the girls in the room turning to greet their coach and teammates but stopping at the sight of the tall stranger.
"Who are you?" Kyra asks pointing at Y/n, receiving a slap in the arm from Steph who is standing next to her.
"Uhhh hi" Y/n gives a shy wave, feeling overwhelmed with the amount of eyes on her. "I'm Y/n," Jenna's head snaps up from looking through her bag at the sound of her wife's voice. She turns seeing her wife standing behind Renee at the door to the locker room.
"Y/n/n?" Jenna asks moving from her locker to stand in front of Y/n. "What are you doing here?" she asks. Y/n smiles raising her hand that is holding Jenna's cleats.
"You forget something this morning?" Y/n chuckles as Jenna slaps her forehead.
"That's where they were! I've been looking for them for the past 10 minutes!" Jenna exclaims taking the shoes from Y/n's hand, leaning on her tip toes to press a kiss to Y/n's lips in thanks. The couple forgetting about the multiple sets of eyes on them.
"Uhhh Jenna?" The couple separate at the voice, "Have something ye want to tell us?" Katie asks.
"Oh! I was supposed to introduce you all at the event tomorrow but since Y/n is here now…Guys this is Y/n…my wife," Jenna says squeezing Y/n's hand in reassurance feeling how tense and anxious her wife is.
"You're married?" Leah asks in shock. Jenna and Y/n nod.
"We've been married for two years but we've been together since middle school," Y/n explains, Jenna nodding, confirming Y/n's words.
"Renee you knew Jenna was married?" Alessia asks, remembering how Renee knew Y/n's name.
"Of course I did. I know everything," Renee trails off, a few of the girls looking at her in concern before she continues, "Now finish getting ready and get to the field for training. Y/n you're welcome to stay and watch training if you'd like." Renee says as she turns to leave the locker room. Some of the girls who were already ready for training following behind her.
"It's nice to mee you Y/n. We look forward to getting to know you better." Kim says as she walks by. Y/n nods sending the woman a smile.
"You plan on staying and watching training?" Jenna asks looking up at Y/n. Y/n takes a second to think before she eventually nods.
"Sure, why not? I was only going to be watching tv anyway" Y/n shrugs, "Go put your cleats on so you can show me the way to the field," Y/n says lightly pushing Jenna away from her. Jenna nods quickly swapping her sneakers for her cleats, moving back to Y/n and taking her hand in hers once more as she leads Y/n to the field followed by a few of the girls.
"How are you Y/n/n? Feel like it's been forever since I've seen you," Emily jokes her arm wrapping around Y/n's shoulders on the opposite side of where Jenna is. Well trying to wrap her arm seeing as Y/n stands at 5' 10". Y/n rolls her eyes shrugging off Emily's arm.
"You saw me yesterday Foxy."
"Well yea but-"
"Foxy you knew about Y/n?" Beth asks confused. Emily nods.
"Yea, I met Y/n at Jenna's first camp in 2023 when Jenna introduced Y/n to the team. They had just gotten married. Kelly and Sonnett had the best reactions to Jenna being married," Emily laughs, Y/n and Jenna joining, remembering just how shocked the two were that who they thought to be another part of their Frat Daddy ways was taken. "They were disgustingly cute then. Still are." Emily jokes running off before Y/n or Jenna could say anything. The couple rolling their eyes at their friend. Y/n turns to glance at Jenna, smiling at how happy she looks as she converses with Leah and Alessia.
"I love you." Y/n whispers to Jenna. Jenna stops her conversation turning to see Y/n smiling at her.
"I love you too," Jenna says pressing a kiss to Y/n's lips. Alessia and Leah groan.
"Emily was right. You guys are disgustingly cute," Leah says jogging ahead of the couple. Alessia following behind. Y/n and Jenna laugh, but continue their walk to the field with their hands intertwined.
"Uhh Less? Have you seen this picture of Caitlin from a couple of days ago?" Beth asks turning her phone so Alessia can see the image Beth is talking about on her screen. Alessia sets down her boots before leaning towards Beth to look at her phone. A gasp escaping her when she sees the image.
"Oh my god!" She yells drawing the attention of those in the locker room. She gives a sheepish smile before turning to Beth. "That's fake right?" Alessia whispers. Beth gives her a sad look shaking her head.
"No, there's more pictures…" Beth trails off swiping through the images on her phone.
The images in question showing Caitlin sitting at a table at an outdoor café in Manchester lip locked with who was thought to be her best friend Alanna Kennedy. Multiple images from different angles of the two looking less like best friends and more like lovers.
"How could she do this to Katie?" Beth whispers staring at the image in disbelief. Alessia shrugs trying to think of some explanation for the pictures.
"This can't be true. Caitlin would never do this to Katie." Alessia whispers, Beth nodding in agreement.
"Caitlin would never do what to Katie?" a voice asks popping up behind the duo. Beth and Alessia jump in surprise turning to find Leah and Emily standing there looking at the two in confusion. Beth and Alessia share a look before turning Beth's phone so Leah and Emily see the photo of Caitlin and Alanna sitting closer than friends. The two stare at the photo in confusion.
"Uhh, what's wrong with that…" Emily trails off as Beth swipes to the next photo showing Caitlin and Alanna in the middle of a kiss. "Never mind" Emily mumbles. The group of four now stand staring at the image not sure what to do next.
"Do-Do we tell Katie?" Alessia whispers, hating the thought of having to tell her friend and teammate that her girlfriend is cheating on her.
"I mean we have to…don't we? We can't let Caitlin lead Katie on when she's clearly seeing Alanna. Katie deserves better than that." Leah sighs, frustrated with Caitlin for even doing something like this to Katie.
The group looks up when they hear Katie's booming voice enter the locker room followed by the sound of Kyra and Steph. The three stop when they see the saddened look on Beth, Alessia, Leah and Emily's faces.
"Geeze, what's wrong with you guys? You look like someone died…wait did someone die?" Katie asks quickly growing concerned when she realizes they are looking at her. Steph and Kyra share a concerned look between them before turning to the four.
"Have you seen Caitlin the past couple of days?" Leah speaks up when none of the others do.
"No, she stayed back in Manchester when we played them two days ago. Mackenzie is visiting from the states since her season ended. Her, Caitlin and Alanna are spending time together before Mackenzie goes back to the states. She'll be here in a few minutes for training. Why?" Katie explains growing more concerned when the four share a look at the mention of Alanna.
"Umm…well you see…um…" Leah stutters. Beth sighs before holding out her phone with the photo of Alanna and Caitlin kissing.
Katie's eyes widen in shock at the image. She slowly takes Beth's phone and zooms in on Caitlin before letting out a breath of relief.
"Guys it's nothing to worry about," She shrugs handing Beth her phone before walking to her locker to get ready for training. The group stare at her in shock, not including Kyra and Steph who had seen the image over Katie's shoulder, as to why she is so calm to see her girlfriend kissing said girlfriends best friend. Steph and Kyra walk to their own lockers as well not paying the situation any mind.
"Wait, why are you so okay with Caitlin kissing Alanna?" Alessia asks confused by the reaction of the three. Katie shrugs moving around to get ready for training.
"Not my place to say," is all she supplies. The four continue to stare at her in confusion, but jump when the locker room door is slammed open. Caitlin and Caitlin(?) walking into the room, seemingly in a argument.
"That's not the point! You should have known better!" One of the Caitlin's say moving further into the room, the other close behind. Everyone in the room besides Steph, Kyra and Katie look at the two Caitlin's in a mix of shock and confusion.
"I told you I was sorry! Lana and I have been to that place a thousand times and have never been caught before. I truly didn't know that anyone had seen us! Cait you know I'd never do anything to hurt you!" The other Caitlin pleads.
"Uhh what's going on?" Leah asks. The two Caitlin's stop arguing and look around the room at the mixed faces of shock, confusion and amusement. The last one being from Katie, Kyra and Steph.
"Uhhh…hi?" One of the Caitlin's waves sheepishly. The other rolling her eyes and shoving her.
"Since when are you shy? Guys this is my identical twin sister Y/n," who the team now realizes is Caitlin says gesturing to her sister who stands slightly behind her, a soft smile on her face.
The team continue to stare at the two in shock. Katie moves towards the two pressing a kiss to her Caitlin's lips before moving to hug Y/n.
"Hey Y/n/n. A little more careful next time yeah? If it weren't for your tattoo I'd have thought my girlfriend was stealing your wife." Katie jokes gesturing to the tattoo on Y/n's hand. Y/n rolls her eyes slapping the girl on her shoulder.
"You know Caitlin and Alanna would never do that to us. They know how much trouble we can be," Y/n chuckles stepping back from Katie and moving to stand with Steph and Kyra as Katie and Caitlin hug again.
"Hold on!" Alessia yells, causing everyone to turn and look at her. "So it wasn't Caitlin kissing Alanna in the photo?" she asks. Caitlin and Y/n chuckle but shake their heads.
"That would have been me," Y/n says, "Alanna and I have been together for six years, married for two. It was our anniversary that night so we went to our favorite place for dinner. Caitlin was at the apartment with Mackenzie while we went out." Y/n explains.
"Why did we never know Caitlin had a twin?" Beth speaks up. Some of the others nod in agreement.
"That was also me. I asked Cait to keep me in the dark. I don’t like a lot of attention plus I'm a private person. Although recently that has changed. Alanna and I have a post planned for tonight to announce our relationship and reveal that Cait has a twin." Y/n explains. Caitlin looks at her sister in shock.
"But you said-" Y/n cuts Caitlin off.
"I know what I said but I've seen the comments about you since those pictures came out so Alanna and I talked about it. I've had my privacy. I'm ready for the world to know. Besides I can't tell you how many kids have come up to me thinking I'm you asking for a picture. I can't imagine their disappointment when they realize it was me and not you." Y/n laughs out others joining.
"Those poor kids," Katie laughs.
"Anyway, I'll let you guys get to training. Alanna is waiting in the car." Y/n moves to leave.
"Bye Y/n/n, you and Alanna are still coming over for dinner right?" Caitlin asks. Y/n nods.
"Yea, we are picking up something on our way. Think of it as our apology for all the trouble we've caused." Y/n says, waving before disappearing behind the door, a muffled 'bye' being heard from the other side of the door.
"Wow…not how I thought today was going," Kyra says breaking the silence that fell over the room after Y/n left. Caitlin nods in agreement.
"You're telling me! I've kept her secret for years! It took her long enough to want to tell people!" Caitlin exclaims both relieved to not have to hide her twin but also proud of her sister for being ready to face the world as herself.

You groaned in boredom as you sat waiting on your girlfriend to get home. It was finally summer and due to an injury you weren't selected for international duties so you decided to make the most of it and travel to the US to be with your girlfriend.
However with her own season now picking up you unfortunately had to share her time with her practices and games. At the moment she was at one of those said practices and you were bored out of your mind so you decided to scroll tiktok mindlessly.
You quickly came across the ‘current partner’ trend and a plan immediately formed the same time your girlfriend walked tiredly back in her apartment, a subtle smirk on your lips at her perfect timing.
“Hey ma” Paige discarded her bag and plopped down the coach, her head in your lap. You smiled softly running your fingers through her slightly damp hair for a few minutes before remembering your plans.
“Is it ok if I go live darling. I'm kind of bored.” Your girlfriend just nodded mindlessly, eyes closed as she buried her face into your stomach.
You tapped into Instagram Live. Comments started rolling in almost immediately — fans excited to see the footballer in the U.S, to know how your recovery was going and of course to know if Paige was around.You smirked. Showtime.
You chatted with everyone for a bit, the sound of your accent almost lowering your girlfriend to sleep. “Yes, my current partner is here and asleep.” you feel your girlfriend's body tense in your lap and her calm breathing coming to a temporary stop.
Paige’s eyes opened immediately, narrowing. She turned her head slowly to look at you. “Current partner?” offense clear in her voice.
The chat exploded:
👀👀
‘OH NO’
‘Paige boutta throw hands’
‘what did she just say?!’
‘NOT “current” 😭’
You tilted her head like she didn’t understand the problem. “What? You are my current partner.” you can see Paige’s eyebrow twice in annoyance before she sits up her face now in the frame for the live to see.
‘Y/n cut the camera rn’
‘Paige’s face rn HELPP’
‘you gon’ die fr’
‘someone save y/n before Paige does something CRAZY’
“Don't play in my face right now, I'm your only partner. There ain't no after me ma.” Paige’s hand slowly wrapped around your neck as she kissed you roughly completely disregarding the phone recording everything and the chat exploding with even more comments.
You're dazed when she finally lets your lips go with pop. “It's… a prank?” You say unsure your mind still reeling itself back in after the heated kiss.
“Paige done broke our brick wall rip to the new season “
“Um, do yall need space?”
‘I'm covering my eyes but also watching harder’
‘Gays we're still here’
Paige smirks deviously, clearly satisfied with her actions before gently taking the phone out of your hands “goodnight kids.” and the live ended.
Paige’s face darkens again once her eyes are back on you. “Don't ever say something stupid shit like that again.
You swallowed thickly. “Yes ma'am.
Bonus:
Paige's story : A dazed Y/N sitting at the kitchen counter, holding a Gatorade with both hands like it’s holy water. Her hoodie is sliding off one shoulder, and she’s still red in the face.

Y/n was woken up by soft lips pressing kisses to her cheek. She slowly opens her eyes as they adjust to the sunlight beaming into the room from the open curtains. When her eyes adjust she locks eyes with her favorite defender, who is leaning down so her blonde locks surround them both. Y/n smiles at the woman, moving her hands so they rest on Leah's waist, just above where the blanket rests on her still bare hips from their activities the night prior.
"Good morning." Y/n whispers. Leah smiles at Y/n leaning down to press a kiss to Y/n's lips only for Y/n to move at the last minute. "Morning breath." Y/n supplies. Leah rolls her eyes, taking Y/n's face in her hands and leaning down to press a kiss to Y/n's lips.
"I don't care." Leah whispers when they pull away. Y/n chuckles leaning her head back on her pillow. Leah follows, pressing another kiss to Y/n's lips. The couple continue, hands wandering each other's bodies, almost going farther once more but, just before that can happen a knock sounds on their bedroom door.
The couple pull away breathless. Leah lets out a groan of frustration rolling off Y/n back to her side of the bed. Y/n chuckles standing and grabbing some clothes. Leah watches eyes raking over Y/n's body, sheet pulled up to cover her chest. "Dammit" Leah groans. Y/n chuckles.
"Patience my love." Y/n says walking to open the door to her and Leah's shared bedroom. "Munchkin!" Y/n exclaims as a little body runs into her legs once she opens the door. Y/n bends down to take the child fully into her arms.
"Mama!" the child exclaims wrapping her little arms around Y/n's neck, tucking her face into her mother's neck. Y/n adjusts her hold on the child and stands with her daughter in her arms. Y/n looks up over the child's shoulder smiling at her younger sister and sister-in-law.
"How was she?" Y/n asks her sister, stepping out of her bedroom and shutting the door behind her to allow Leah a chance to get dressed, thankful for teaching Peyton to knock before entering a room that has the door closed. Y/n walks towards her sister who is standing at the end of the hall in the living room, her sister-in-law standing next to her.
"She was an angel. Myle loved having her around." Viv answers sending her sister a smile. Y/n chuckles nodding.
"Sounds about right. She always talks about how much she loves getting to spend time with Myle. She keeps asking for a puppy but that is too much for a six year old to handle." Y/n jokes, holding Peyton with one arm and tickling her with the other. Peyton lets out a giggle squirming in her mothers hold.
"Mama stop!" she laughs. Beth and Viv laugh watching the mother daughter duo.
"Is that my baby I hear?" Leah asks walking into the room. Y/n seizes her tickle attack on her daughter and looks up to see Leah dressed in her Y/n's Arsenal hoodie and a pair of sweatpants.
"Mommy!" Peyton exclaims squirming in Y/n's hold to be let down. Y/n chuckles setting her daughter on the ground so that she can greet her other mother.
"How was your night with Auntie Viv and Auntie Beth?" Leah asks, her daughter now in her arms, much like she was with Y/n. Y/n watches as Peyton recounts her adventures with her aunts to her mother. A nudge from Viv pulls Y/n from her thoughts.
"Another one soon, right?" Y/n looks at her sister in confusion as Beth converses with Leah and Peyton. Viv rolls her eyes motioning to Peyton with her head.
"It's about time for another kid, right?" Viv jokes. Y/n chuckles, letting out a breath.
"I mean…" Y/n trails off, brining her hand up to run at the back of her neck. A telltale sign that she is hiding something. Viv lets out a gasp, before slapping her sister on the shoulder.
"You guys already started the process didn't you?!" Viv asks quietly as to not attract the attention of the others. Y/n glances at Leah knowing she wouldn't be happy with Y/n for telling anyone just yet, before nodding.
"Yes," Y/n breathes, "But!" She whisper shouts, stopping Viv from saying anything else just yet. "You cannot say anything." Y/n says placing her hands on her sisters shoulders. Viv goes to nod but Y/n continues. "Not even to Beth. You know I love her but she can't hold water in her mouth." Y/n jokes. Viv sighs but still nods. She loves her wife but knows from experience that she can't keep a secret to save her life.
"Fine, but I want to be the first to know when she's pregnant!" Viv says. Y/n sighs but nods agreeing with her sister.
Y/n and Leah had adopted Peyton when she was six months old. The process was fairly easy for the couple. They were both in their prime with playing and knew neither one could be pregnant at the time but they had talked after Peyton's 6th birthday and decided they wanted another kid. Leah had decided to take a bit of a break from playing so she was happy to offer to be the one to carry. Y/n had no objections already planning on everything she could do to help Leah as she carried their second child. All Y/n had said to her sister was that Leah was willing to carry but had never said when that would be.
"Mama!" Y/n turns towards her wife and daughter at the sound of her name.
"Yes, my loves." Y/n says moving to stand behind Leah, who is still holding Peyton in her arms, placing a hand on her wife's waist. Beth having moved to the kitchen. Viv likely following behind.
"You playing today?" Peyton asks pointing at the Arsenal badge on the hoodie Leah's wearing. Y/n nods running her hands through Peyton's golden locks. Despite not being biologically theirs Peyton holds a striking resemblance to Leah and Y/n from her blonde hair to her mannerisms.
"I am." Y/n nods, "You and Mommy are going to sit in the stands with Auntie Viv who also has a boo-boo like Mommy.." Y/n says. Peyton nods laying her head on Leah's shoulder. Leah smiles rubbing her hand up and down Peyton's back, pressing a soft kiss to her daughter's head.
"Still sleepy my love?" Leah asks walking towards Peyton's room. The child nods, wrapping her arms around her mother tighter.
"Too early." Peyton mumbles. Leah lets out a soft laugh at that, turning slightly to look at Y/n who rolls her eyes having heard what her daughter said.
"Yeah. Yeah. I know she gets it from me. Go let her take a nap before we have to start getting ready to head to the stadium." Y/n says waving Leah away. Leah chuckles continuing on her way to Peyton's room.
"9 am and it's too early for you. You definitely are your Mama's child." Leah whispers when she feels Peyton's breath even out, indicating the child fell asleep. Leah gently opens Peyton's room door and sets her daughter in her bed. Leah pulls the covers over Peyton and presses a soft kiss to her head before leaving the room just as silent as she entered. Leah makes her way into the kitchen seeing her wife laughing with her sister and sister-in-law.
"Babe! I made you your coffee!" Y/n says moving to hand Leah her normal coffee mug. Leah shakes her head taking a seat at the island next to Beth.
"Not today my love." Leah says pressing a kiss to Y/n's cheek. Y/n looks at Leah confused. "I'm just feeling a bit nauseous right now that's all." Leah explains. Y/n nods taking Leah's coffee for herself so it doesn't go to waste. "Anyway are you guys excited to play today? London derby!" Leah exclaims, upset that she's missing the match but excited for the end of it to be able to tell Y/n the news she has.
"A little. Nervous though. It'll be my first start against Chelsea. I've seen you guys all play during these matches but I'm nervous as I've seen how these matches have gone in the past. It could get brutal." Y/n says, moving from the counter to stand near Leah who reaches out and pulls Y/n into her sensing how stressed her wife is.
"You'll be great! You're one of the best keepers in the world. They won't stand a chance to score against you." Beth exclaims, resulting in laughs from the others.
"I guess, but I don't want to get my hopes up." Y/n says fidgeting with the hem of her shirt, her nerves fully showing. Leah and Viv share a look knowing that when Y/n gets like this there is little that can calm her down.
"Baby why don't we join Peyton and take a nap before we have to leave." Leah asks. Y/n nods moving to walk towards their bedroom, saying a soft 'bye' to Beth and Viv. Once Y/n is gone Viv looks to Leah.
"First sorry we interrupted your 'moment' earlier" Viv jokes, having seen the grumpy look on Leah's face when she had walked in, Leah jokingly rolls her eyes. "Second, please take care of her. I can tell something is bothering her about today. You and Pey are the only ones I know that can get her out of this funk." Viv explains, Leah lets out a breath nodding.
"I know," she sighs, "I haven't seen her like this since we found out we got the approval for Peyton. I'll keep you updated." Leah says standing to pull Viv into a hug. "We'll see you guys at the match. Drive safe home." Leah says releasing Viv to hug Beth. The other couple nod moving towards the door of the apartment.
"Please do. It's hard to see the normally calm Y/n so stressed over a match," Beth sighs. The other two nod, knowing there must be something more going on. Leah bids the couple goodbye and shuts the door behind them. She takes a deep breath leaning back on the closed door before pushing off and moving towards her bedroom. She peeks at Peyton and smiles seeing her daughter asleep in her bed, on her way before continuing her move to her and Y/n's room. She smiles softly seeing her wife already asleep in the bed. Leah sets an alarm on her phone before joining Y/n, curling herself in Y/n's arms. Y/n shifts wrapping her arms around Leah, her hands resting on Leah's stomach. Leah chuckles shaking her head.
"I haven't even told you yet and you know."
~~~~~~~~~
"Go Mama!" Peyton cheers from her place on Leah's lap. The mother-daughter duo are seated in the friends and family section dressed in their Y/l/n Arsenal gear. Since it was a colder day in London both have their Arsenal beanies on their heads.
The game has been going on for just over 60 minutes, and just as Beth said Y/n has managed to keep a clean sheet so far as Arsenal lead the match 2-0, with goals from Beth and Alessia.
It's the 65th minute when things begin to go downhill. Chelsea had managed to get a corner. The sounds from the crowd cheering and coaches yelling gets drowned out at the loud thunk Leah hears. She is immediately on her feet having a bad feeling but with the blur of red and blue on the field she can't tell what's going on. She sees all Arsenal players surround someone who is down on the pitch as someone, who she recognizes as Kim, waves frantically to the sidelines for the medics. Leah swears she feels her hear stop as through the frantic players she sees a glimpse of the yellow keeper kit, that she knows her wife is wearing, laying flat on the pitch unmoving.
"Viv I-" Leah turns to her sister-in-law, knowing something isn't right. Viv nods, moving to take Peyton from Leah, the child watching in confusion as to what is going on.
"Go, I'll keep Peyton with me. Keep me updated." Viv says Leah nods, carefully handing her daughter over, pressing a kiss to the child's head.
"Mommy? Mama sleeping?" The girl questions. Leah pulls back holding her daughter's face in her hands.
"Mama… Mama may have a boo-boo so Mommy has to go see if she's okay. You're going to stay with Auntie Viv for a little bit." Leah explains. The child nods not fully understanding the situation, but turns into her aunt trying to watch what is going on on the pitch but Viv turns her so she can't when she spots the red staining Y/n's kit as the medics reach her and load her on the stretcher. Viv and Leah share a concerned look before Leah turns and darts off to the spot she knows the medics will be leaving the stadium with Y/n.
Leah gets to the corridor that leads to the door where the ambulance usually sits for matches seeing the medical team and paramedics rushing around Y/n who is lying still on the stretcher. One of the paramedics is straddling Y/n and administering CPR as the others push the stretcher towards the ambulance.
"Leah!" One of the medics calls when they see her standing there. She rushes forward moving to the empty spot next to Y/n, following them as they move towards the door. Steps faltering when she sees the state Y/n is in. Y/n has a large gash on her head that is bleeding through the temporary bandages that were placed on the wound, blood is trickling down Y/n's face and onto her once bright yellow kit that is now stained in red.
"I'm sorry ma'am but-" Leah cuts off one of the paramedics.
"I'm her wife. I'm not leaving her." Leah states leaving no room for argument, her voice sounding much more brave than she truly feels. The paramedics knowing the situation don't argue and allow Leah to enter the ambulance with them once Y/n is loaded inside. Leah sits on the bench next to Y/n as one paramedic hops in the back with them, the other two shut the doors and rush around to get in the front beginning the trek to the hospital.
The paramedic in the back with Leah starts hooking Y/n up to the monitors there. The paramedic looks at the screen before her eyes widen.
"Hurry the hell up!" She yells smacking the wall between the back of the vehicle and the front. Leah feels the ride speed up. She looks to the paramedic in concern.
"What's happening? What's going on?" Leah says, tears falling down her face, not liking the feeling of this situation at all. The paramedic ignores her continuing to work on Y/n. Leah keeps trying to get some kind of information out of the woman but gets nothing. Leah eventually gives up tightening her hold on Y/n's hand. "Please be okay baby," Leah whispers. "You have to meet your second kid." Leah continues quietly. The paramedic gives Leah a sad look, one that Leah misses, knowing things aren't looking good for Y/n.
Shortly after the vehicles comes to a stop. The doors burst open and there is a group of nurses and a doctor that rush to help get Y/n out of the ambulance and into the hospital. Leah rushed behind but is stopped when Y/n s led past the doors to the ICU.
"I can't let you back there ma'am." A nurse says. Leah goes to argue but the doors bursting open behind her stop her. She turns and sees her mother, and father and rushing into the hospital. Her parents had stayed home to watch the match, but when they saw Y/n go down they immediately left for the hospital closest to the stadium knowing Leah would need them. Especially for Peyton.
"Leah!" Her mother calls. Leah lets her emotions take over as she collapses into her mothers arms. Amanda wraps her arms around her daughter in a tight hug, holding her as she cries. David leads his wife and daughter towards open chairs in the waiting room.
"Peyton is with Viv. I rushed to follow them with Y/n to the ambulance. I didn't want to leave Pey but I couldn't leave Y/n alone. I needed to see with my own eyes that she's okay. Mom-" Leahs words stop as she remembers how Y/n looked. Amanda whispers to her daughter that everything will be okay, not once letting go knowing her daughter needs this comfort.
Around an hour later a doctor walks out of the door Y/n disappeared behind. Blood on his scrubs a somber look on his face.
"Family of Y/n Y/l/n." He calls. Leah stands and moves towards the man.
"I'm her wife. Is she okay? Please tell me she's okay." Leah begs the man shakes his head.
"I'm so sorry." Leah's heart breaks even further at the words knowing what they mean.
"No!" She sobs falling to her knees in the hospital waiting room. Her mother falls next to her wrapping her daughter in a hug as her father walks away, clenching and unclenching his fists in anger at the situation the family is now facing.
Leah tunes out everything the doctor says, trying to grasp the fact that her wife is no longer with her. Her wife who won't get to tuck Peyton in to bed. Her wife who won't get to kiss her daughter again. Her wife who won't get to meet their second child. Leah sits there on the hospital waiting room floor sobbing harder as she comes to the realization that Y/n didn't get to hear that Leah is pregnant.
~~~~~~~~~
Five years later…
"Mommy! I can't find my gloves!" eleven year old Peyton calls from the living room where she is rifling through her kit bag.
"They're in my bag Pey! I threw them in there after you left them in the car the other day!" Leah calls back walking into the living room with her five year old son in her arms.
After Y/n had passed Leah went into a dark place. It took Viv, Beth and Alessia to get her back to a semi-normal Leah. She would never be the same as Y/n was such a huge part of her. Without Y/n she has had to learn a lot of things she never thought she would have to. She had to rely on people who weren't her wife to help her with her pregnancy cravings, and anything else that she needed.
Leah had planned on getting to experience that with Y/n and she broke down most nights as she realized this was one thing Y/n was looking forward to with the pregnancy. But as Leah grew closer to the end of the nine months she realized that she would still live on but never let Y/n be forgotten. Especially when Nick was born. He was the spitting image of Y/n from his y/h/c hair to her y/e/c eyes. He reminded Leah of Y/n in all the best ways and she knew that Y/n was there watching her family grow.
Leah never tried to find someone else. She knew Y/n was her soulmate and it wouldn't be fair for her to try and be with someone else when she knew Y/n was it for her. She was perfectly content with her two kids and her family who were there for her in whatever way she needed, knowing losing her wife at such a young age was not going to be easy. Especially with two young kids.
Peyton took after her mother's and started playing football. She had talked about being a defender like her mommy, but she had seen videos of Y/n in goal and decided she wanted to be more like her Mama and asked to be a keeper instead. That brought tears to Leah's eyes but she agreed. Peyton was like Y/n in that she was tall, even at her age and she may only be ten but she is incredibly talented for her age. She's a natural much like her Mama was.
Leah hopes Y/n is watching over them and she can hopes that Y/n is proud of her.
Little does she know that Y/n is always watching over her and that she will always be proud of Leah.
