Aggie's POV:
"Oi Aggs, Chelsea team night tonight at Niamh's!" shouted Millie, across the room.
I look at her.
"Ok, I'll be there." I said, pulling my shirt off. I pull on my t-shirt and hear Niamh laughing.
"Is Jana coming?" asked Ellie, looking at me.
"Nah, it's LCL game night" I said, pulling at my hair.
I watch as Niamh brushes her hair.
I finish and leave. I drive home wondering why I never told Niamh my feelings when her and Amy broke up. They broke up three days before me and Jana became official and now we've been dating for six months.
I like Jana, I can see myself falling for her but I will always wonder about Niamh.
I park and head inside. I go have a shower and then have a light dinner in case food is at Niamh's. I pull on a pair of jeans, a tank top and a cardigan. I leave my hair down and grab my bag. I nod and smile. I hear my phone and it's Jana.
Enjoy Chelsea team night x
You enjoy LCL game night x
I get in my car and drive to Niamh's house. I park and walk to her door. I knock and Niamh opens the door.
"Hey you made it" said Niamh, smiling.
"I did" I said, smiling back. I go inside and join the rest in the sitting room.
Niamh brings in vodka, beer and wine.
I have a beer.
We begin chatting, drinking until eventually someone says game time.
Which we do play.
"Truth or dare, Niamh" said Ellie, smirking.
"Uh.... truth" said Niamh, looking at her.
"Hmmm..... who out of this room would you date" said Ellie, smirking.
"Uh...... Aggie" said Niamh, taking a sip of her beer.
I blush and look away.
"Aggs, truth or dare" said Niamh, smiling.
"Uh.... dare" I said.
"I dare you to.... kiss the cheek of someone you'd think would make a good girlfriend" said Niamh.
I gulp and stand up.
I go to Niamh and kiss her cheek. I sit back down and take a sip of my beer.
Niamh's red. I blush again.
The game carries on, more drinking involved. Everyone leaves by 11pm.
I yawn.
"You're not driving back, right?" asked Niamh.
"Yeah, no. I am too out of it" I said, rubbing my face.
Niamh nods.
"Stay" said Niamh.
I nod.
She helps me up and I stumble.
Niamh catches me.
We look in each other's eyes.
We lean in and kiss.
And one thing leads to another and we're falling asleep wrapped in each other's arms.
NEXT MORNING
I wake up to warmth and arms around me. I rub my eyes and turn.
Oh fuck me. I slept with Niamh.
Niamh's eyes open and she looks at me.
"Oh fuck" we both said.
I sit up and rub my face again.
"I-I..... shit" I said.
"Aggs, calm down please" said Niamh.
"I-I cheated." I said.
"Babe.... calm down" said Niamh.
I struggle to breathe until Niamh pulls me in for a hug.
"Breathe, please" said Niamh, rubbing my back.
"I-I..... shit." I said.
"Breathe then talk" said Niamh.
"I.... well I don't regret this." I said.
Niamh looks at me.
"Oh" said Niamh.
I look at her.
"I like Jana but I-I shit..... I always liked you and by the time you and Amy broke up, me and Jana were going on dates and yeah. I do like Jana but this..... I felt so much" I said.
"Me and Amy broke up because of my feelings for someone else. She never knew but it was you" said Niamh.
"Oh" I said.
"Anyone know you like me" said Niamh.
"Wieke." I said.
"I expected it to be her, let's get dressed and talk this through" said Niamh.
I nod. Niamh stands up and I stare at her.
"Shit.... you're beautiful" I said.
Niamh blushes and pulls her dressing gown on.
I stand up and she hands me an another one.
We go downstairs and we have eggs.
"I.... have to tell Jana." I said.
"Yeah. But what about us?" asked Niamh.
"Can we take it slow before we become official? Like so I can get over Jana fully" I said.
"Of course. Dates and we keep it to ourselves" said Niamh.
"Yeah, that's perfect" I said.
I get dressed and head home. I have a shower and pull on jeans, a blue top and vans. I leave my hair down and pull out my phone. I text Jana.
Hey, do you want to come over?
Sure, be there in 10
Great
I hear the door open and Jana walk in.
She goes to kiss me but I dodge her and she gets my cheek.
We sit down and I look at my hands.
"How was last night?" asked Jana, looking at me.
"Uh fun." I said.
"What's wrong?" asked Jana.
"I..... fuck." I said, looking at her.
"Aggie, tell me" said Jana.
"I slept with Niamh. We had sex. Uh fuck..... I always liked her but she was with Amy and well, when they broke up we were getting together and I liked you but I ......" I said.
"You slept with Niamh Charles" said Jana.
I nod.
"We were drunk but this morning I admitted to her my feelings and she has the same and fuck, I am so sorry, Jana. I never imagined this would happen" I said.
"Right" said Jana.
I gulp.
"So" I said.
"What's next for you and Niamh?" asked Jana.
"Um dates and stuff. We will be waiting before becoming official" I said.
"Ok, we're done then" said Jana.
"I'm so sorry" I said.
"I should have known, you looked at Niamh with such love.... it's fine" said Jana. I let her out and I sit on the sofa. I text Niamh.
Is it ok if I tell Wieke? You can tell Nay and Magda and Pernille
Of course Aggs x
I text Wieke to come over.
She arrives moments later.
She sits down and looks at me.
"Me and Niamh had sex" I said.
"OH" said Wieke.
"I told Jana, we're done." I said.
"Ok, well I knew you and Niamh would be endgame" said Wieke.
"Of course you did" I said.
"So you and Niamh?" asked Wieke.
"We're taking it slow" I said, smiling.
"I support this" said Wieke, hugging me. I hug back.
Niamh's POV:
I text Nay and she's not shocked. I open the group chat with Magda, Zecira and Pernille.
NC: So me and Aggs had sex.
ZM: Isn't she with Jana?
ME: OH MY GOD?!
PH: Finally
NC: Yes Z, she was with Jana. She told Jana today and they're over. Before you ask, we're going to take it slow
ZM: Hmmm knew you'd two would end up together. Be safe kiddos.
ME: You'll make a cute couple
PH: Maid of honour at your wedding x
ZM: Sorry thats me Pernille
ME: Actually it's ME!
NC: Calm down kids. It will be Zee :)
ZM: YES!
ME: Ugh fine.
PH: UGH guess I'll accept bridesmaid duty :)
NC: yeah you will x
I smile and lean back on my sofa.
A few days later me and Aggie go on a date, and after that we continue until I ask her to be my girlfriend.
It's now the opening match of the 26/27 season, we face LCL. Me and Aggie spent all summer together.
Aggie's POV:
We head onto the pitch for the inspection. Me and Niamh are beside each other, smiling. I spot Jana with Freya.
She glances at me and looks away. I sigh and we go back inside to get ready for warm up.
The game starts and I can tell Jana is going to do something stupid.
We're 3-0 up at their home stadium until I see Niamh running down the wing, overlapping Alyssa when she goes to cross Jana goes studs up into Niamh's leg. Niamh goes down screaming. I immediately run over and push Jana away.
"Are you stupid, Jana? That's a red card foul!" I shout. I see the referee give her a red and I crouch down beside Niamh.
I take her hand and look in her eyes.
"You'll be ok, Niamh" I said, looking in her eyes.
"I know.... thank you for being here" said Niamh, looking into my eyes.
Niamh stands up and goes off. I watch her and smile when she comes back on.
"You ok?" I ask.
"Yeah, luckily no damage" said Niamh, smiling.
Niamh scores the fourth goal and then it's full time.
We go clap for the fans and then head inside.
"Aggie, Niamh.... I'm sorry Niamh, I took it too far" said Jana.
"And you could have seriously injured Niamh." I said.
"It's ok, Aggs. It's ok, Jana. Shit happens" said Niamh. Jana nods and walks away.
Me and Niamh get ready and back on the bus. Niamh leans into me and sighs.
"I love you, Niamh." I said.
"I love you too" said Niamh, looking at me and kissing me.
Epilogue
In the end we end up getting married 2 years later and that we took the chance when we did.
But cheating is still wrong and we know that.
