“It’s sparkly.” His fingertip traced my number reverently.

“Yep. Sparkles for my little magpie boyfriend.” I couldn’t keep the grin from my face. I had a boyfriend. And not just any boyfriend. Niccolò Rossi, the dramatic, cute, wonderful man I was falling for.

Despite the warmth of the afternoon, Nic pulled the hoodie over his head. Hopping off his seat, he did a spin. “How do I look?”

I met his gaze. “You look like mine. Come here and kiss me.”

“I am yours.” He wound his arms around my neck, kissing me softly. “I’m so happy.”

“Me too.” Movement at the side of the pitch caught my eye, and I released him reluctantly. “Time for your boyfriend duties. Cheer me on during my match.”

He beamed at me. “I’m going to be the best cheerleader you ever had.” Before I could join the rest of the team, he gripped my hand. “Wait. Selfie. I want to send it to JJ. He got his man, and now I get mine, and he needs to see the proof.”

We took a few photos, and I made him promise to text them to me so I could set one as my phone wallpaper, and after another kiss, I made my way to the centre of the pitch where the teams were lining up.

Ander dipped his head when I reached him, speaking low in my ear. “Did you two sort your shit out?”

I nodded. “Yeah. Thanks for, y’know, the talk. We sorted everything out, and he agreed to be my boyfriend.”

“Nice!” He slapped my palm, making Travis raise his brows, but there wasn’t time for questions.

I glanced back over at the side of the pitch, where Niccolò was on his feet, clapping along with the assembled spectators, his gaze fixed on me.

My lips curved upwards as I moved into position.

We had a football match to win.

And I had my boyfriend cheering me on, every step of the way.
