    Summary

    Alessia has learned to crochet to quiet her mind. Leah notices... and can't help noticing after that. Somewhere between training sessions, hotel hallways, and the pressure of a knockout tournament, Leah finds something that she has been fighting to push down for a long time and what starts as a shared silence grows to soft touches and and a growing inability to stay away.

    or:

    Alessia is touch starved after her move to Arsenal. Leah's presence is entirely (un)helpful. Gay Panic ensues.

    Summary

    Jordan opens her mouth to protest but she feels a scratch in her throat and turns back around to the sink as she coughs into her hand. She feels something soft land in her hand and sees a singular flower petal there. A daffodil.

    “You alright?”

    Jordan crushes the petal in her hand and turns around to see Leah looking at her in concern. She doesn’t know what the flower means but the sound of the girls laughter floats through again and she knows this isn’t the right place.

    “Yeah, I guess”
