You’ve been with Alexis Ness for a couple months now. He’s one of the sweetest boys you’ve ever been with, well, met, and he’s been the most precious ever to you. He’s kind, sweet, and a phenomenal soccer player.
Ness told you about his soccer career almost as soon as you two got together (he did have posters of his teammate named Kaiser up on his dorm wall after all) and you’d actually seen him plenty of times on live television. Soccer was also the way that you met him, and he met you. You were accompanying one of your close friends to a match of Bastard München against PXG, when she dragged you out near the field, and you caught Ness’ eyes, while your friend was getting autographs from the rest of BM.
He had offered you if you’d wanted an autograph, or a photo together, and you had politely agreed. That was just the first interaction, however, as you started attending BM’s matches more, and he started small talk after his matches. The rest is history.
As his love, his lover, and his sweetheart, you'd attended his matches many times before to support your boyfriend and the rest of his teams. You didn’t miss how his eyes would always look at yours during the starting line up, or how he’d flash his adorable smile, reminding you of a puppy. He was simply charming and adorable in his way, and Ness himself had told you how much he enjoyed having you at his matches (you basically attended every single one, including friendlies, how could you not show up to support your amazing boyfriend and that sweet adorable smile of his?) It made him extra happy when he spotted you among the crowd, your pretty face grinning and giving him a thumbs up.
Despite being a regular to every single one of his matches, you’d never worn his jersey to a match. You’d always dress in shades of pink or magenta, matching his dyed hair ends. So, when your friend called you later that evening, excitedly exclaiming that she had gotten tickets to see Ubers play BM in a club friendly the upcoming week, you also excitedly agreed to going with her, knowing that your boyfriend would be on the starting 11 for BM. You also excitedly ordered his jersey off the official club website, since you wanted to surprise him by wearing it to a match for the very first time.
When the package arrived the very next day, Ness was at practice, which was great news for you since you had it ordered to his dorm, because you basically lived there with him at this point. He would find you wearing his clothes all the time, had placed an extra toothbrush in the bathroom for you, and you often watched movies together while he cuddled you, pressing soft kisses on your head.
You opened the package and felt the soft fabric brush on your fingertips, his last name “Ness” sewn across the back in pretty golden letters. You smiled, thinking to yourself “well…guess it’s time to show him that I really wasn’t kidding when I said I’d take his last name someday”, and quickly hid the package away, in a spot that you knew Ness wouldn’t be able to find.
After a couple more days it was finally match day! Since Ness had to leave extra early to get ready, you had no problem getting the package out and putting on his jersey. Looking at yourself once again in the mirror, you smiled seeing his last name on you and you quickly put on everything else you needed, grabbed your bag, and headed out the door.
Your friend texted you saying that she was already at your seats, so you went over to join them, looking over towards the field, where you saw Ness warming up with the rest of his team. You sat down next to her as more fans came flooding into the seat in front of you, with kickoff beginning in less than a minute or so, feeling the tension in the stadium growing by the moment as everyone chanted down the the last remaining seconds until a loud, whistle blew, and the match offically started.
You tracked down Ness with your eyes, watching as he closely asissted his teammate, who you knew as Kaiser, from the posters on his wall, and also due to his closeness with Ness. Ness had come to you after a match one night, in tears because Kaiser had wanted to “break up with him” and you couldn’t help but wonder if at that point, you were dating Ness or if Kaiser was dating him, but you heard that their relationship wss getting better nowadays and Ness still was clingy to you and wanted your affection, so you had ultimately decided that as of right now, you did not need to jump Kaiser.
At half time, the score was 2-1 with BM scoring a point right before half time, making them take the lead. As the players ran off towards their towels and took water breaks, Ness hsd began looking for you in the crowds, as always. You were talking to your friend, smiling and laughing at something she said, and Ness couldn’t help but smile his own smile looking at you; he loved you so so much, and he was so lucky to have an partner like you, who was so supportive and showed him all their love. He blushed, and started looking back onto the field, when he noticed.
You were dressed in red and gold. But not just any red and gold, the specific shades of his club jersey. His Jersey. He knew he was right when he saw you twist your back and saw his last name on it. He knew that there were hundreds, maybe even thousands of fans in that stadium wearing his jersey. He knew that there were many people supporting him. You were different however, because you were the person he loved, the one who showed true, genuine love and affection towards him, and made him feel loved.
At that exact moment, you turned back around and looked straight at him. And smiled. Ness felt himself blush even harder as he smiled back at you, and just as he was about to mouth “I love your outfit mein liebling”, the whistle blew, signaling that halftime was over. Walking back onto the field, he knew that he would look for you as soon as the match was over.
“And we have Michael Kaiser, dangerously approaching the goal range once more!”
“He’s running towards it, taking the form of his Kaiser impact!”
“With a beautiful assist from Alexis Ness, the beating heart of Bastard München, Michael Kaiser has scored the final goal for the match!"
When the final whistle flew, and the two clubs shook each others hands, the final score was 5-3, which BM taking the win for the friendly. You got up, since your friend starting doing her regular act of dragging you down to the field for autographs and pictures, and this time you ran straight to Ness, who embraced you in a hug. You burried your face in his neck, smiling and giggling as he pulled away bringing you into a soft, passionate kiss instead. He pulls away with a huge smile of his own, and pretty, pink blush tinting his pale cheeks.
“That last goal that Kaiser shot was amazing, your assist was amazing”, you said, pecking his cheek. Ness flushed even harder.
"I saw you, in the crowds, wearing my jersey, and I-”, Ness burried his face in his hands. “You look absouletely gorgeous mein liebling”, he said peeking out at you from in between his hands.
"you look pretty too Lex, you know that. And hey! Look I have your last name on my back!” you do a little spin for him. Ness kisses you in response, slotting his lips between yours once more. When you pull apart, he grabs your hand and starts pulling you away towards the locker room, away from everyone else and mummurs quietly “I’ll put a ring on it someday, then you’ll be permanently wearing my last name.”
You pretend not to hear it, but seeing your boyfriend’s flushed, red face, just by seeing you wearing his jersey, makes little butterflies dance around your stomach too.
A/N: Ness is so sweet, I love him 🤭
