I walk into U6, my class and hang my coat up. "Sup people!" I shout to Nikki and Tracy, who I work with in U6, who look at me and smile. Tracy comes over to me, "Kids buses will be here soon—eh, have you seen our special visitors?" she asks excitedly. She's doing that swoony eye thing Jill was doing before, what the fuck is going on here? Have I missed something?
"What's going on? Jill had that same fuckin swoony eye thing going on as well—what have I missed?" Tracy looks at me and laughs. "Swoony eye?" she giggles. "Is that even a thing?" she asks, and I roll my eyes. "Well if it wasn't, it is now" I laugh. "What's got you all giggly anyway?" I ask her. Nikki and Tracy look at me like I'm being crazy, nikki says. "Eva, you do know Everton are here, like in this school...like the football team—Everton, right?" she clarifies. Is she taking the piss? Everton? 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3yVcXrk0G

"Are you taking the piss?" I ask her, and she laughs. "No girl, for real! They're here to see the kids and play football, apparently they've started a football camp for kids with special needs, isn't that fab?" She beams. "No shit? That's fuckin awesome!" I praise. Jill comes over the walkie talkie "ladies, your kids are ready to collect". I smile at Nikki and Tracy "let's go get our kiddywinks!".223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeoXB6buBR
We're walking into the hall where all of the kids are waiting to be taken to their classes. I see our Holly, but I don't say anything to her, she'd get upset if she saw me as she doesn't associate me with school, only at home. Joys of autism, I think to myself, with a sad sigh. I walk over to where all the U6 kids are sitting. "Hey, guys, how you are doing? Come on, let's go to class!" I smile at them all and we walk them to our classroom. As we get to class Tracy announces to the kids that we've got surprise visitors, the kids are so excited, bless them. We walk to the sports hall, I'm holding Abbie and Kieron's hand, they're so excited. "Calm down kids, we'll be there soon," I say, smiling at them. We get inside the sports hall and it is empty except for the classes who are walking in, there are two other classes besides ours, U2 and U5. We sit the kids down on the benches as one of the sport hall doors open.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4Oo5IzkpV
Chelle, the school Headteacher walks in with Duncan-Fucking-Fergus, holy fucking shit! Everton are really here! God, dad would shit a brick if he found out Duncan was here! I'm totally mesmerised by the legend before me that I'm oblivious to the fact that Justin is standing there amongst all the Everton players. I'm staring dumbfounded, holy Shit! Justin waves, grinning at me, and there's me daft arse still staring with my mouth open like the Mersey tunnel, eyes wide waving like a loon. Then it clicks, I was too busy staring at him, basically eye-fucking him from head to toe earlier, when I vaguely remember him saying that he was scouted by Everton and that he was here for the kids. If only you could slap yourself right now Eva, I think to myself. Justin's looking at me grinning as if he knows what I am thinking. Annnnd Q the blushing, what the fucks wrong with me? Get a grip, Eva. Nikki comes over to me. "Hey, are you ok? You look like you're going to be sick or something, "she feels my head with the back of her hand. "You're not hot girl, you look flushed though, what's wrong?" she asks concerned. I look at her. "Me? Nah, am fine me, all good, yep am good!" I babble. "We're good aren't we kids?" I say nervously, talking to Abbie and Kieron so I can't see how Nikki is looking at me. Michelle takes the opportunity to say something. "Good morning children, as you can see we have a surprise for you—the players from Everton football club have come to visit us to play football with you and to tell us a little bit about the football camp they've opened, isn't that awesome?" she informs them, smiling brightly. The kids are all screaming happily and excitedly, Michelle laughs at the kids' excitement. "I thought you would like that", she grins. "Right well, here are Duncan and the boys." She smiles at the kids, then at Duncan and the other players. She then looks at me and the rest of the stuff winking at us. "Have fuuuuun!" she sings and leaves the hall as Duncan steps forward. "Hey Kids, so who here likes football?" he asks excitedly. 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr45jNPaSrR
Loud ME's are getting shouted out from around the sports hall, the kids are so excited they're rocking back and forth and clapping their hands, Duncan's smiling at their happy faces. "Great, well am going to split you up, I've already assigned players to each class, are you ready to have some fun?" he asks smiling at them as the kids start shouting yeah happily and clapping, and with that, we're left to our assigned players. I look up to see Justin and two other players walking over to us. "Hello, Eva—Again" Justin says with a grin. "Hey," I say nervously, looking for Nikki and Tracy. They're looking at me smiling, but with the question in their eyes, I inwardly groan. Fuck, I'm going to get an earful later.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pggl5Y9cP

For nearly an hour, the kids have fun playing football with Justin, and who I later find out is Russ Berkley and Tom Davids. Dad would kill me if he found out I didn't recognise these players, the man is a die-hard blue nose, I roll my eyes at the thought. We're just about to start taking the kids back to class before they have their dinner when Justin comes over. "Hey, I never thanked ye' properly for helping me this morning, did I?" He says with a smile. Jesus, he's gorgeous. "Oh, it's okay, I was going the same way anyway," I say nervously. What the fuck am I nervous for? He's just talking to you Eva, chill your beans for fuck's sake. I mentally roll my eyes.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9SjdccuWu
Justin steps even closer, so close I can smell him. Oh god, he smells divine, oh, he's wearing Issey Miyake, I love that smell. I sigh, shit, did I just sigh? like out loud? I look up at Justin to see he's grinning at me, shit! "Right well I have to go now, I'll see you round Justin!" I go to walk away to the kids when he calls me. "Wait" he shouts as I turn back to look at him. "Um, how's the head?" I look at him confused and then I remember how we met and I laugh out loud only it comes out as a snort laugh, so I cough to hide it. "What? Oh yeah am fine, my brain's still there so all good!" I smile at him, pointing at my brain. Fuck sake, Eva could you be any stupider? Justin steps up to me again, smiles, then kisses me on my forehead.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgkU2cPGyx
I gasp stunned, I am stunned and I'm not even breathing, fuck sake Eva breathe, I mentally chastise myself, it's a kiss on the head not on the lips.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRMCllahF5

I take a deep breath in. I look at him, god the way he's looking at me, it's one of them swoony ones that Jill was doing, so I smile back brightly at him. Justin grabs my hand, squeezes it, and says. "Catch ye' later, Eva" and walks away annnd I'm staring at his arse again. That is a nice arse. I don't even realise I'm in an arse stare-coma when I hear Justin shout me. "Hey, Eva" I look at him and he's got a Cheshire Cat grin on his face and winks at me. "Glad ye' like me arse" he chuckles at my shocked and no doubt red face. "Later" he laughs as he walks away. I blush feeling my face going bright red, fucking hell I said that out loud?! Fuck, me, and my fuckin big mouth. I groan at my stupidity. I get back to class and of course, the kids are at dinner and I'm left with the nosy arse twins! I sigh again, knowing what's to come. Before they ask I jump in, "I met him this morning, he was lost, so I showed him the way, that's it".223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCl9PcW2i1

They're looking at me with their judgy faces, trying to figure out if what am saying is true or not. Whatever. "Have Friar Tucks dropped the food off yet?" I ask them. We order from Friar Tucks every day for lunch, today is chicken pasta salad day. I get my order from the staff room and my phone vibrates, I look at my phone and see it's a text from Amber.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU1CKHoNfS

Amber: Sup bitch, the fuck you ring me at the arse crack of dawn for? Xx" 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R7FcWYSo9
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl77lBAc4ch
Subtle, isn't she? I decide to ring her instead of texting her back and she answers on the first ring. "What up Daaaaawl", she says in this horrid whiny voice that she knows I hate, because it gets right on my tits. I shudder. "Urgh, don' t do that fuckin voice Amber, you know I hate it!" I groan. She's laughing, the cow. "Awwww am sorry boo, you know I luuuurves yo mama!" she in a high, squeaky voice. What the fuck? I bet she's been watching Friday again, I roll my eyes, the woman must watch that film on the fucking daily or something. "Amber, have you been watching Friday again?" she laughs. "Girl, you know I love watching ice cube and Chris Tucker, they funny as!" I roll my eyes. "Yes, I know they are babe, but leave the funny quotes to them, yeah?" I tease, snickering, knowing she can hear me. "Bitch, please, am just as funny as them two. Now tell me why the fuck was you ringing me at the arse crack-a dawn for Hmmm? cos I know you haven't adopted a cockerel or something" I roll my eyes.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFW96BjSNG
"Well, for one, it wasn't the arse crack-a dawn as you put it, it was nearly 8 o'clock you lazy, arse. Anyway, do you remember when I told you the school was having special visitors today, and that I had to be in from 8 o'clock to set up and shit?" I say. "Oh yeah, so who was it? Was it that petting zoo place with the snakes and shit?" she asks with a shudder. I laugh at her, "You're such a girl, nope, it was..." goading her. "Woman if you test me, I'll come down there and bitch slap you!" she growls.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOauHNpPdP
"Ok, ok, fuckin hell girl calm your farm! It was Everton!" I tell her excitedly. Amber goes all quiet. In five, four, three, two, get ready. I pull the phone from my ear, "ARE YOU SHITTING ME?! You had Everton in your school and you didn't tell me?" She screams. "Erm, I did ring you! You didn't answer!" I fire back. "Don't bullshit me, you didn't even know it was them before you got into school, did you?" she argues. Justin's gorgeous face pops into my mind, and I realise I've not said anything back to her. "Why've you gone quiet on me? Did you know? I swear to fuckin Christ Eva, if you knew, am telling your dad, I swear!" she growls, I gasp. "You wouldn't dare!" She laughs evilly. "Try me bitch!" 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEBawETSBM
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRzLpBccB1
I huff. "I honestly didn't know, but I did bump into someone on the way." I reply. I tell her everything about meeting Justin on the way to work, then I finish talking and I realise she's quiet on the other end. What the fuck is wrong with her? I've told her everything? I look at my phone to see if we're still connected, we are. "Amber, heeeello, you still there?" I ask. 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcJ68Mdit1
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgTh34b3Ig
"Yes, I'm still here you daft cow, as if I'd put the phone down on ya when you tell me you had your fod kissed by an Everton player" she scoffs, and I laugh at her reply. "Exactly, it was just me fod, listen, I'll ring you later." as I look to see Nikki tapping her watch, I give her a thumbs-up to let her know am coming for the kids. "Nuh-uh bitch face, I'll be at yours by the time you get home from work, I've got one client in today. I want a more in-depth discussion about this Justin lad!" she teases in a singsong. I roll my eyes over what's to come when I'm home. "Whatever bitch, catch ya later." I laugh as I hang up.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnpDb7kvtp

I get home at 5.30pm and I just step in the door, I shout. "Hey, am home!" before shutting it.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN9lxLeJay
I get a mix of 'Hello's' from everyone and I smile. Dad comes into the hallways and he's got a scowl on, uh-oh! "Hey baby girl, how was work?" He asks. "Yeah, it was good, kids had a great day" I smile. Dad looks at me and folds his arms, "Uh-huh! Doesn't have anything to do with the fact Everton came to Blue Saints today does it?" He asks arching an eyebrow at me.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UbzpsRyiC
Fucking Amber, can't hold her own shit. I curse my best friend, before replying. "Amber told you then?" I sigh, and dad's scowl gets deeper. "Amber knew?" Shit! 223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuRiOP4fjS
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ncU7puuPQ
"NO, NO! I told her at dinner time because she phoned me asking if it was the petting zoo" I tell him, his eyes narrow at me. "It was Holly who told us." He says smiling proudly, I gasp. Oh my god, this is major. "SHUT. UP! What did she say?" I ask him, Dad grins nodding. "Seriously, she was shouting Duncan, Duncan Fergus and Everton. I thought it was random like, so I looked in her link book and there it was, Everton comes to visit." He says happily. "Aw, that's great dad! Did mum see too?" I ask him. "Yeah, she's with our Holly and Catherine now in the living room" he says and folds his arms. "So, come on tell me, I know we've got new players, was there any there?" "Don't know dad. Russ Berkeley and Tom Davids were in our group." I tell him. Dad looks stunned "Shut the fuck up!" He whispers, shocked.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSX4BCgJQU

I nod. "Yup" but don't mention Justin's name. That is until the door opens, and Amber's dramatic voice carries all through our house. "Fear not, my precious family, for I am here!" I look at Dad, rolling my eyes at my girl's theatrics, whilst he's grinning shaking his head. Mum, Catherine, and Holly say their share of hellos to Amber. Amber fist bumps my dad "What up pops?" he laughs and shakes his head again and looks at me again. "Tea'll be ready soon baby girl, I'll shout you down once it's ready." he says "How about you, Amber? You in?" He asks her. "That's a stupid question pops, you know I love Ma Ava's food!" she chuckles. "True!" He chuckles. I give him a grateful smile and kiss him on the cheek "Thanks dad."223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfnvuo1TgV
Once dad is in the living room, Amber's all in my face. "Right, come on, tell me about this Justin, I want to know EVERYTHING!" I sigh and take her up to my room.223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBnAxhiN3r
