Summary
Leah Williamson knows football cannot fix everything. She knows it in the fluorescent halls of a children’s hospital, sitting beside a little girl who asks her to do one simple thing the next time she scores: bow. The problem is, Leah knows exactly whose celebration that is.
Alexia sees the video from Barcelona and against every better instinct she has, finds Leah's number.
"You can't say no to a sick kid, Williamson."
And what starts as nothing but a message grows into something more than a habit. More than a want or a need. More than either of them bargained for as their worlds fall apart and they find solace in nothing but each others words.
