Now that the tournament is wrapped up I'll first say that even with all the bullshit that came along with it, I still feel so privileged to be able to watch the growth of women's sports in real time like this. There was so much Black joy, so much colonized joy, so much queer joy, and I hope nobody loses sight of how radical the wwc and woso are at the roots. The players are succeeding with quite literally every odd stacked against them in some cases, and i desperately hope that with a spotlight shined on some of the inequalities we've seen, it might get better.
Having said that, I hate that Spain won. It's nothing against the players and everything against Vilda; I ache for the players who watched the final knowing that with a win, with the federation backing Vilda, their careers might be over. I'm still kind of in disbelief that after this incredible tournament, this is somehow where we ended up. And I hope that if you're feeling similar to me, that feeling will serve as a reminder that we are not done yet. Growth isn't good enough if it comes at the cost of players' well-being.
- inspo: after last night ; bruno mars, anderson. Paak, silk sonic, thundercat & bootsy collins.
- warnings: kinda smutty tbh
- a/n: not proofread !!
“damn, I don’t even know who I was last night”
- the smell of liquor practically radiated off of you. your friend group decided it was time for you to go out again, being busy with work had forbidden your weekly outing.
“there’s just something about you”
- your eyes had met his from the other side of the bar. something about the golden colored lights, just contrasted so well with him.
“you just made me feel, mmh ..”
- after repetitious eye contact, he decided to come up to you. somehow he looked even better. his unbuttoned brown blouse, with a matching pair of trousers. you offered a dance, and he was no one to reject your request. a innocent dance led to his hands on your hips, and your body’s with no room in-between each other.
..
“you changed the game (what’d you do?)”
- sure trent had flings in the past, but there was was something about you that left him craving for more. the way you could hardly wait to get to his flat, the soft touches on his thigh while he drove.
“after last night, I think I’m in love with you.”
- when you woke up with the sun blazing on you, your surroundings were much different than your apartment. desperately trying to ignore the pounding in your head, or the weakness in your legs, you exited the room.
“woke up and I can’t get you out of my head”
- when trent woke up to your practically naked body next to him, no matter how drunk he was last night, he felt like he remembered everything. he felt as if his absent mind never left as he imagined everything that happened last night. while he made breakfast his mind somehow always traced back to you. he tried to think of what they were gonna do at training but you always appeared.
“after last night, I don’t know what to do.”
- y/n stopped dead in her tracks when she seen the shirtless man, in nothing but sweatpants. she slowly took some steps, thus alerting the man that she was near, his gaze off of the sausages now.
they ate breakfast in silence, nothing but a small “thank you” was exchanged. trent mentioned he had to leave for training in 20 minutes and she was more than welcome to stay for a little longer if she’d like a minute to gather not only her things but her thoughts.
England did in fact not win tonight :( congrats on spain thoo!! I'm still so proud of my lionesses and england!!:(( I know how hard they worked just to get to the finals and I've never been this proud all my life. They mean so much to me and i appreciate all their effort 🙌🏻 i believe they will win the next one (2027) in hoping leah , Viv and the others would be there by that time!! Watching tonight's game was nerve wrecking and heartbreaking for us all but after all, I'm really just so proud of england for making it this far and for making it to the finals.
