You & Jude had been inseparable since childhood. Your families were close, so you grew up together family vacations, birthdays, endless teasing. He was the boy who’d kick a football at you just to annoy you, and you were the one who’d steal his snacks in revenge. Over the years, life changed you became a model, he became a football star but your bond stayed the same. Late-night calls, roasting each other over texts, always having each other’s backs. Then, six months ago, things shifted. Friendship turned into something more, and suddenly, Jude wasn’t just your best friend he was your boyfriend.

Now, you were in Madrid visiting him with your family. At the stadium, your dad and Jude’s dad were fully in their element, yelling at the match as if they were on the coaching staff. “Ref, are you blind?!” Jude’s dad shouted, while your father threw his hands up. “That was never offside!” Meanwhile, your mother and Denise sat calmly, talking like this was just another Sunday.

You sat next to them, eyes locked on Jude as he moved effortlessly across the pitch. Then, it happened he scored. The entire stadium erupted, your dad nearly spilled his drink, and Jude’s dad was practically jumping. Jude turned immediately, scanning the crowd before smirking at you, sending a wink hoping no camera would see it
