Straight to the point (or not?)

a/n: let me be bless you with a little something for Katherine Kühl...

*not my GIF*

Pairing: Kathrine Kühl x GERWNT!reader; Giulia Gwinn x reader (best friend); Alessia Russo x reader (past); Arsenal WFC x reader

Summary: a Danish player has a crush on someone but are they feeling the same thing?

Type: honestly I don't know

Warning: Gio being a helpful bro/sis for her friend,

word count: 4233

(I'll definitely write the second part later so feedback and proposition are welcome)

------

"How do you know that you love someone? Like, when you've fallen in love with them?" Kathrine asked, and the entire table became silent.

Amelie just looked at her, then at all the girls in the dinner room, and pulled up her phone to type something. When the striker finished, the Arsenal midfielder got a notification from the team's group chat.

Amalie: Girls! Emergency! Meeting in my room after dinner

"You could've just told me you don't have to get all the team involved." The young player said, trying not to show her embarrassment.

"Trust me, we definitely need it." Without saying a word, the girls finish their dinner before all heading to the striker's room.

"So what is so important that you need all of us?" Pernille asked the PSG's player.

"It's not for me." The striker started making some teammates grumble. "Kathrine wanted to ask all of you something very important." She finished. All the attention was now on the midfielder, which made her a little nervous, and Amalie didn't help her relax because she gently pushed her in front of the team.

"Well, it's not that important. I just asked the girls a stupid question, and now they're overreacting, sorry." She said now more embarrassed than before.

"Since we're all here, I think we can help you with your little problem, right?" Signe proposed, and everybody agreed.

At this moment, the midfielder couldn't feel more happy to know that her teammates were there for her, but she was also nervous because she didn't want it to involve so many people.

When Amalie noticed that her teammate wasn't planning to speak, she took it in her hands. "Kathrine has a crush on someone!" She announced.

If you could die out of embarrassment, Kathrine would definitely be dead right now. Her face turned so red that she could be confounded by her shirt. A lot of gasps were heard in the room.

"I wasn't expecting something like this." Pernille said, but her comment didn't reach everyone at the moment Sofie opened her mouth.

"Wow, that's crazy! Who are they? Did they play football? Are they good-looking? Since when did you-"

"Sofie, please stop; I can't hear my own thoughts!" Katrine Veje said after putting her hand over the Madrid's player's mouth.

"That's why I didn't want to tell the whole team." The midfielder whispered to the striker.

"Sorry, not sorry, but I think we need as much help as we can have for a case like that." The other Danish replied.

"What do you mean by a case like that?" The Arsenal's player asked a little offended but she didn't get an answer before her captain spoke.

"I don't want to be intrusive, but can we know who they are? We all want to help you with something important like that, but we will need more information."

"She plays for Germany." The young player said.

After a little silence, all players started to complain, "That's the only thing you get?" Sofie asked.

"Yes, because honestly, I don't know if I really love her; maybe it's just a crush." Ke defended herself.

"Okay, now things have become a little more clear. But didn't you ever fall in love in the past?" The older Kat asked.

"I don't think so. I mean, I had friends who had ever fallen in love and had crushes, but for me, it was the same thing." She explained.

"Oh, trust me, it's not the same thing." Amalie interjected, getting the attention of the midfielder. "Look at that." She took her phone and opened Instagram; a few seconds later, she showed her phone to all their teammates. "This is the look of someone who is completely in love with someone else."

"Why did you use me as an example?" The national captain asked.

"Because you're too cute when you look at Magda like that, and I thought that it would be more helpful if I showed someone she knows." During their interaction, they didn't notice the weird expression on Kathrine's face.

The midfielder picked up her phone quickly and immediately texted the only other person who was aware of that situation.

Ke: I think I love her

She was grateful that her friend was quick to reply, but she wasn't ready for the answer.

"I'm tired. I'm going to sleep. Good night." The midfielder said and left before anyone could reply. The girls stayed a little longer before calling it a night.

Gio: I think you know the next step now

Ke: What?

Gio: you need to tell her

Ke: absolutely not!

Ke: are you crazy?

Gio: you don't have to do it tomorrow but you'll need to do it before she find someone

Ke: do you think it's possible?

Gio: I hope not because that would mean I spent too much time hearing you talk about her for nothing

Ke: thanks for the reassurance

Gio: I know, I'm the best

Ke: it was ironic

Gio: 🖕

The next day was game day. Denmark against Germany in the Nations League. What Kathrine didn't know was that the last night all her teammates were trying to guess who could have been this special person.

During the pitch inspection, both teams were totally focused, especially the Germans. The Danish midfielder was looking at the opposite team, searching for someone, when two hands covered her eyes.

"Guess who it is," you instructed her. The midfielder faked thinking for a moment before replying.

"Y/n/n?" She heard you grumble in defeat before you put your hands back in your pockets. "So how are you?" She asked after she turned around to face you.

"I don't know; I'm a little nervous to be back, but I'm also really excited. And you?"

"Same thing. I'm just a little disappointed that one of us has to beat the other."

"Stop being too friendly with enemy Y/n, you will see her back in London." Lina said.

"Okay, grumpy captain, but why don't you say the same thing for Syd?" The older German looked at her Bayern's teammate and looked back at you.

"You know what? Forget what I said, but don't go easy on her because you played for the same club." She warned you.

"Okay, first, I already know that, and second, don't worry, I always give 100% of my capacity." You reassured her.

"Well, don't do too much; you just came back from an injury." Your Arsenal teammate reminded you.

"If you think that will stop me, you're pretty wrong. And I think I need to show everyone that I can follow the rhythm." You said before leaving to see your national teammates.

After the end of the game, you lost 2-0. You played only for the last fifteen minutes, which was incomprehensible for you because you had already played a full half for Arsenal. A little frustrated, you made your way to the opposing team and shook hands before you spotted Ke.

The midfielder didn't wait too long before she gave you a hug and whispered some encouraging words for your next game against Iceland. Unknown to the two of you, some cameras spotted that moment, and it was the start of a lot of tease for the blonde player.

The next morning, Kathrine woke up with a message from Gio and from the team's group chat.

Gio: I hope she tried to steal you a kiss after you looked at her like that.

The Brazilian player sent her a picture taken last night. The Danish player started to blush, but she was definitely not ready for the next part. When she opened the group chat, she was welcomed by the same picture and a picture of Magda and Pernille shooting for Bayern, where P was making heart eyes at the defender.

Amalie: please try to spot the difference. spoiler alert: it's impossible

Now the midfielder was totally red, like last time. Thankfully, all of them seemed motivated to make this couple real, which made Arsenal's player a little more nervous.

~~~~~

After the international break, you were back in London. You were messing up with Katie like usual when Ke finally appeared with Gio. The midfielder spent all her previous nights trying to find a way to not act in front of you, but that definitely didn't work well.

"Hey, look at that. Our little Danish super star is finally here." You commented. You didn't wait much longer before abandoning the Irish girl and making your way to hug the blonde midfielder.

Usually she would reciprocate it, but today she just froze. Her brain had accumulated too much tiredness from her late-night thoughts, and you didn't help when you just came and greeted her with your pretty smile, your marvelous scent, your familiar warmth, and...

"I think she's a little tired; she didn't sleep well last night." Gio said trying to save her friend from her thoughts.

You pulled away from the blonde and examined her to find some bags under her eyes. "Now that I look at it, yeah, you really seem tired." You said, and before the girl said anything, the Brazilian next to her used that moment to hug you. "Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. Hello, G, how are you?"

"Pretty good, and you?" After you started a little conversation with the brunette while Ke was finally coming back from her trance, when her friend noticed that, she excused herself and pulled the Danish away.

"I froze?" She asked, earning a nod of her teammate.

"Totally. Like a deer. It was pretty funny to look at, but it was also a little awkward," Gio said, and the midfielder turned red again. "Hey, it's okay. I mean, who wouldn't freeze if they were hugged by Y/n? She's literally the only person on the team who can be so touchy with everyone, and nobody complains about that." The Brazilian added.

"I'm going to die." The midfielder said dramatically.

"Oh, come on, don't say that. It was just one interaction; you can still ask her to train together today."

"She usually trains with Katie or Leah."

"Yep, but today Katie will train with me." The Brazilian said confidently.

"Why?"

"Because I'm a good friend, and I want to help you with your Y/n problem."

"It's not a problem."

"What is a problem?" You asked, coming out of nowhere.

"Nothing." Gio said quickly, making you raise an eyebrow at her. "But, hey, since you're here, I was thinking that maybe you could let me train with Katie today." She proposed.

You thought about it for a moment before replying, "Okay, but I heard we will train our defense skills today, so be careful." You warned her before leaving.

~~~~~

A few moments later, it was time to be paired for training, and you were talking with Alessia while the two younger players were looking at you.

"You need to ask her now before Alessia makes a move." Gio said, making her teammate blush.

"What? Asking her, like for a date?" Kathrine asked.

"No, you idiot, ask her to train with you," The striker said visibly annoyed. "But if you found courage to ask her out on your way, take it." She added before pushing the midfielder in your direction.

The walk to your position seemed too quick for the blonde, who hadn't found a proper way to ask you this simple question. When she arrived in front of you, she was greeted by an understandable glare from the other blue-eyed girl. She decided to ignore it for now, but she made a mental note to talk about it with Gio later.

When you noticed the Danish player, you stopped whatever conversation you had with the English striker and focused on her. "Hey, I was searching for you." You said, with a relieved smile, what made the midfielder smile. "Gio said she wants to train with Katie, so I wanted to ask you if you want to train with me." You asked her.

Ke couldn't be more thankful that you were the one who asked; she didn't vocalize her answer; she just nodded, and after that, Alessia left you to find her pair.

During the whole session, she couldn't help but admire you. Of course, she tried to have some conversation after she saw how Gio was struggling to contain Katie.

"I was wondering if you want to go somewhere after training today." She asked and was shocked by her own sudden confidence.

You thought about it, making her realize what she just asked you, and she immediately blushed again for the nth time recently.

"Yeah, why not? I just promised to call Giulia later, but I think she can wait." You replied, making her finally breathe correctly and mentally apologizing to your national teammate.

When the training came to an end, you were immediately pulled in by Vicki and Viv. The blonde midfielder was about to join the Brazilian when she heard you call her.

"Hey Ke?" She turned around. "See you later?" She just grinned and nodded before the two Dutch dragged you away.

"What will happen later?" Gio asked, coming out of nowhere.

"Jeez, Gio, you can't scare me like that." The midfielder said after jumping from surprise.

"Sorry, but why did she say see you later?" The striker asked again.

"I asked her to hang out after. You know, just to spend some time together, like for bonding time." The Danish said, but she couldn't hide her crimson cheeks.

Unaware of them, Alessia heard their conversation, and the English was about to say something until she was stopped by Leah. The blonde skipper just shook her head, and despite her grumbling, the striker just let it go.

Later this day, you were out with Kathrine, enjoying the city and learning more about each other. Even if you were in the club for a few years now, the Danish was still really recent there, and that meant you didn't know her as much as Leah or the others.

~~~~~

When you stopped at a coffee shop, you noticed a missed call from Giulia. You quickly texted your national teammate, but you didn't have time to shut down your phone until she replied back. Your distraction earned a weird look from the blonde girl in front of you.

"Who's this?" She asked, trying not to sound too intrusive.

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's Giulia, but it's okay. I told her that I'll call her later." You replied.

The midfielder nodded, and suddenly a question popped into her mind. "Since when do you know each other?" She asked you.

"Almost all my life, I think." You replied. "Why?" You asked with a confused smile.

"Oh, nothing; it's just that you seem really close, so I was just curious."

"Yeah. I see. I mean, it's totally okay to be curious. But yeah, I've known her since we were five, I think, so she's more like my sister than my best friend."

The information made the midfielder internally smile more than she showed. She was about to ask more questions about you when your phone buzzed again, but this time your expression was not the same as when Giulia texted you.

"Are you okay?" Kathrine asked.

"Yeah, sorry." You apologized.

"Is something bad with Giulia?"

"No, it's not her. It's Alessia." You replied and instantly put your phone back in your pocket.

"Is everything okay with her?" The Danish asked more interested this time.

She wasn't a fool; she knew that something was happening or had been between you and the striker, but she didn't really find the confidence to ask.

"Yeah, just a long story." You tried to brush it off. "But let's not talk about that. There will be a movie night at Viv and Beth's this Friday; do you plan to go?"

The midfielder clearly noted your attitude when you changed subjects but didn't want to push it. "It's a team bonding night, right? So yeah, I think I'll come." She replied and almost melted in her seat when you smiled.

"Cool, it will be cool." The two couldn't have to talk more before Gio and her boyfriend entered the coffee shop. And for the first time, Ke wished her friend was not there.

Of course, when you spotted the young forward, you invited them to sit with you, and she didn't refuse. The four of you talked for a moment until you had to go back home.

"So?" The striker asked immediately when you left the shop.

"What?" The midfielder replied.

"Oh, come on, you know what I mean."

"Okay, she asked me if I planned to go to the team movie night, and we talked a little about Giulia and Alessia."

"What? Alessia? Why?" The Brazilian was now fully focused.

"Alessia texted Y/n and she didn't seem very excited about it. Something definitely happened between them, but she didn't want to talk about it." The Danish explained.

"We will have to dig it during movie night."

~~~~~

Back at home, you quickly got rid of your shoes, instantly crashed on your couch, and called your best friend.

"Okay, now you have time to talk?" Giulia said sarcastically after she picked up.

"Hi to you too." You joked, making the other German snort.

"Sorry, I just thought you would forget to call like you always do."

"Hey, it's happened only a few times." You countered. "And it's not like I ditched you on purpose." You added.

For a moment, neither of you talked. The Bayern player knew that something was off, and when she understood that you didn't want to talk first, she took it in her hands.

"So? How was your date with your Danish girl?" The right-back asked, making you grumble.

"It was not a date." You said it firmly. "She just wanted to spend some time with me; I mean, it's okay, I do that with everyone."

"Everyone except one." Your best friend said making you mute again. "How are things with her, by the way?"

"She texted me. When I was Kathrine, she texted me, but I didn't reply." You explained.

"And you did well. Honestly, I don't know why you didn't accept the Bayern offer when it came to you after you learned she got transferred to Arsenal."

"Because Arsenal is like my second home."

"Okay, but Germany is your first home. I am your first home. And don't get me wrong, she is a good player, but I can't imagine how you can stand with her every day."

"Okay, first, it's not every day. It's only during training days. Second, Leah, Kim, and Lia make every thing possible to not let us alone in the same room for too long." You reassured your best friend.

"That's the same thing; as a professional footballer, we train almost all the week, which means you are almost a week near her. I really don't–"

"She came to talk with me today." You cut her off.

"What?!"

"Yeah, she wanted to be paired up for training, but I was already paired up with Kathrine. And surprisingly, she didn't complain about that."

"I hope she didn't try to talk with you after that."

"Don't worry, Vicki and Viv were there to pull me far away from her."

"Please remind me to get them some gifts before Jill has to go back to the Netherlands." She joked, making you laugh almost immediately. "I need to go, but please be careful and stay away from her. And maybe you can start to hang out more with Kathrine."

"What do you mean?"

"Look at the group chat sometime."

"You always talk too much."

"Just do it. Go back to after our game against Denmark. Now I really need to go. Bye and be careful."

"Always." You hung out and quickly opened the group chat.

~~~~~

In Germany, the defender sighed loudly after the call. This little action gained attention from some teammates.

"What's wrong?" Klara asked.

"Alessia can't let Y/n alone." She explained.

"Do we need to kick some ass?" Linda asked.

"What? Of course we need." Lea said.

"Wait, girls, calm down. We don't have to go that far. At least not now." Giulia said.

"Are you all crazy?" Klara genuinely asked. "You can't just fly to another country to beat someone." While all the girls in the changing room were agreeing with her, she added, "At least wait until we have to face them in the National League, so we will not have to pay for it."

"Okay, girls, I don't know what you're talking about, but I think you need to stop right now." Lina said trying to calm them.

"We're talking about Y/n and Alessia." Giulia explained.

"Okay, now things are different. And Klara is not wrong." The ex-captain said.

"Lina!?" Jovana and Glodis called the midfielder at the same time.

"What? Nobody mess up with Y/n without consequences. Now let's go; we have training to do."

~~~~~

Friday night came more quickly than Kathrine expected. The Danish found herself on the couple's couch, waiting for the rest of the team to show up. After fifteen minutes of attempting to distract herself by talking with Frida and Noelle, you finally knocked on the door. When Beth opened the door, you didn't waste time giving a powerful hug to the striker.

"Our little sunshine is finally here." Sabrina said.

"You're the one who is talking? Look at you, please." You replied, making the whole team laugh.

After greeting everyone, it was finally the Danish's turn. She tried not to act weird and just opened her arms, waiting for you to hug her like always. This time, you were the one who malfunctioned for a moment.

Since your call with your best friend, you have seen what they were talking about in the group chat, and one of the topics was you and your Danish teammate.

Like the Danish team, your national teammates found it cute how the younger players looked at you. A lot of them knew about your recent drama and didn't say too much, but some of them were suggesting that maybe she could be the one who could help you heal from it.

And since then, this idea hasn't stopped running through your mind. You started to analyze every eye contact you made with the midfielder, and you started to notice the little changes. The light blush gradually turn into something more intense. The little talks that she made last longer.

Thankfully for Kathrine, you easily came back to your senses and finally hugged her. This one lasted a little longer than usual, but nobody really noticed that. Well, maybe Alessia did. And the glare she sent you definitely confirmed it. Sensing the little awkward change in the atmosphere, Viv asked you if you could help her with something in the kitchen, which you accepted immediately.

Followed by Vicki, you made your way to the kitchen out of the blonde eyeshot but near the Danish earshot.

"Please, can we not start this now?" You asked the striker.

"I don't want to start anything unless you find it necessary." She replied, gaining a confused look from her national teammate. "She slept with Alessia." Viv explained.

"It's not like that." You interfered.

"What do you mean it's not like that? Did you sleep with her, yes or no?" The tall Dutch asked.

"Yes, but we didn't just sleep together, okay?"

"Okay, my bad, there was also a little relationship." She rolled her eyes.

"Wait, when?" Vicky asked.

"2021." You replied, "Until almost the end of the 21–22 season." You added.

"But why did you slip out?"

"Because our relationship was not really the best, and she broke my heart, so we just ended this." You explained this.

"She spent three days here, crying on the couch." Viv added.

"Okay, you don't have to say that. And I was broken at this moment, okay?" You tried to defend yourself.

"Okay, but right now I need to be sure that you don't end up doing something stupid tonight."

"Like what?" You were a little offended by the lack of trust of your teammates. "And it's not like we can do anything stupid. I have Kim and Jen on my back every day to be sure it never happens again."

"I still need to be sure that nothing can happen. So you'll be assigned to the scandis tonight. I don't want you too far from one of them, and more importantly, I don't want you near her, okay?" At this moment, Viv was using her serious tone, and she would not tolerate any errors from you. You just gulped and nodded before she let you leave the kitchen.

On your way back to the living room, you felt your phone buzz in your pocket.

You wanted to reply when you heard someone speaking.

G7: please don't do something stupid tonight, or I'll have to get the girls involved

You: what do you mean by "getting the girls involved" and how do you know what I'm doing right now? I didn't post anything anywhere.

G7: I have my connections

G7: now have a good night and keep an eye on the little Danish

"Hey, I think the movie is about to start." When you raised your head, you were found with Kathrine, who was visibly waiting for you.

"Uh, yeah, I'm sorry I'm coming."

To undo a mistake

Part 6/17 - previous - next

Lena x Bayern Player!reader

Around three weeks later.

You had been the last one to arrive at camp. Along with Klara, Syd, Giulia and Lea.

You were greeted by every one with hugs. You were there for the first game of Euro's 2025 qualifying.

Everyone was so excited. Including you. So when Lena came up to greet you with a hug, you barely paid any mind to the action. Until she said something.

"Hey. How are you?"

"Good, really." - And you weren't lying. The last couple of weeks had been good. You were keeping yourself busy with the team, training, therapy twice a week and spending time with friends. And by friends you meant Ana.

Before you could say anything else, the started dividing you guys into two to share the rooms. You tried sticking to Syd, she had already grabbed Lea by the arm.

And the only ones left without a partner was you, and Lena.

Once noticing that Lea offered to switch places with you.

"It's fine. Thanks."

Everyone tried to pretend the weren't paying attention. And that they weren't surprised by how you were acting.

Lena included. She was glad though. That you no longer felt so repulsed by her presence.

You both follow up to the room to settle in and leave your bags before heading to training.

"I thought you hated me. I was scared I wouldn't have the chance of talking to you again."

"I don't hate you. I hate the situation we were in. And the way you handled things.

But I think I deserved to move on." - you said. And the first thing you did before anything else once you went in, was texting Ana you had arrived safely.

Next you changed and made your way down. Without waiting on Lena.

Not that she was expecting you to. But still, it hurt a little.

By the end of the day you could only think of dinner and bed. And you did both on that exact same order.

You were laying in bed, when you picked up Guzmán's call.

"Hey! How was the day?"

"Good, so busy. And unfortunately I ended up having to share the room with Lena."

"Don't drive yourself crazy about that. Am sure you'll be fine."

"She hugged me when I got here! She had the audacity to! Thank god I think I escaped from. She must be in Lea and Syd's room."

"Congratulations on making through the first day!" She said joking around.

"Only so many more to go. I'll let you know if I leave in the middle of the night to go home." - You said it, only half joking.

-"You have to rest for tomorrow. Goodnight. I'll talk to you later."

"Goodnight." - You said hanging up, and not long after you fell asleep.

When Lena was back, she noticed you asleep, trying her best not to wake you. You had always been the lightest sleeper.

She laid in bed thinking back on how the day was, and what was to come. Glad you were at least on speaking terms. Even if it was just the bare minimum.

Friday arrived and you were having breakfast. You were an absolute nerve wreck. You were seating next to Klara. You were all having light conversations.

You received a notification on your phone, that was casually on the table.

"Let me guess. Ana?" - She asked you.

"Yeah, just wishing us good luck."

Little did you know, Lena was watching this very closely. She immediately turned to Lea.

"Who's Ana?"

"What?" - Lea was confused by the sudden question.

"Is Y/N friends with anyone named Ana?"

"Ah yes, Guzmán. She's recently signed with the team."

"And they're friends?"

"Yeah. Ana didn't really connect much with the rest of the team. So they're always together." - Lea said the last part absentmindedly.

Lena was burning inside. She knew she had no right to. And even though her friend had told her they were just friends, she couldn't be sure of that.

Looking over to you once again, you had a big smile on your face.

As you guys made your way to the stadium, Lena had a lot in her mind. Trying to keep calm.

Unfortunately you were starting on the bench today. But you were okay with it. You knew if they needed you, they would put you on.

Getting ready for the match and making your way to the pitch, as they played the national anthems, you and Lena shared one last look, before they had to make it to their spots.

The referee blew the whistle and the game started.

You were worried watching how the first minutes had gone, and when the clock hit the 8:15 mark, Doorsoun made a bad attempt at passing the ball, and lost it to Campbell, Hendrich tried, but the two defenders couldn't stop her, neither could Frohms. And Austria scored the first goal of the match.

In the 15th minute they scored another one. Another from Campbell. This time a header. And you saw Obi blame herself for this one. She was so close.

Nüsken had a good shot at the goal but it was stopped by the Austrian goalkeeper. She had a few more opportunities after that but no scoring.

Bühl finally got a goal, from outside the penalty area. Thankfully putting you guys back in the game, almost 5 minutes to the whistle blow.

And finally you reached the end of the first half.

I like the way this story is going finally!

Guys I might merge some chapters together so they can be longer, so if you're in doubt if you've read it or not, use the images to help guide you!
