three united drabbles
Title: Maybe
Pairing: Cristiano Ronaldo/Wayne Rooney
Rating: G
You twirl the gold band on your finger. It feels so heavy (so tight) all of a sudden, and all you want is take it off. It once symbolized everything you wanted in life. (Coleen, marriage, happiness) Maybe that was still what you wanted. Maybe it wasn’t. You didn’t know anymore. Because somewhere between the white and black, you got lost in the gray and found the brown (of his eyes). And somewhere between the English and Portuguese, you found meaning. And you want to be sorry (to find your way back to that gold band and everything it stood for), but you can’t (won’t).
Title: Only You
Pairing: Owen Hargreaves/Michael Carrick
Rating: G
He changed your life (that was long ago; back when neither of you knew the meaning of love or heartache). You never let anyone get that close to you ever again. You did it for yourself (mostly you did it for him). You want him to be the first and last (and only) person to hurt (love) you the way he did (still does). And it’s only when you see him in that red uniform, standing beside you, that you tell him, “It’s still you. (Probably always will be).”
Title: Accept
Pairing: Alan Smith/Darren Fletcher
Rating: G
You’ve accepted the pain of (not) being with him. You never expect a phone call at night (at all). Or a secret smile in the locker room. You never expect him to keep his promises (you’ve learned that the hard way), and forgive all his wrongs. You’ve accepted it all. Because this, this was who he was. This was the person you fell in love with . And that was enough (for now).
