"Come and go to the champions league final with me and-" Lara hugged Ronnie from behind "and me" smiled the 4 year old "mommy I need my Jersey" added Ronnie "here you go" seconds later he presented himself in his light blue jersey with RONNIE across his back. "I also changed into my jersey" "what does it say?" asked her son "F-O-D-E-N Foden, your and your dads last name" answered Lara "why isn't it your last name?" kept Ronnie pushing "because you dad is afraid of proposing" mumbled his mother "what did you say?" "because me and your dad aren't married" said Lara and Ronnie laughed "now we will get food and then go the stadium" "FOOD" there was a cut and people could see a very short clip of the food they had. Then there was another cut and a clip of the camera being very close up in Phil's face "Hi" he took the phone and filmed her "hi" she smiled as well as she waved.

"Where is Ronnie?" asked Phil as he gave Lara her phone back. "Searching for you son?" asked Kyle, who was holding a laughing Ronnie upside down. "Hey Dad" laughed Ronnie as Kyle turned him around and he jumped into his dads arms "Hey little one" Phil smiled and a few moments they saw Pep entering which was their sign to to get to their seats. Phil sat Ronnie down and Lara grabbed er sons hand "good luck" she gave her boyfriend a quick kiss before leaving with Ronnie. As they walked past Pep he gave Ronnie a high five and then the 2 finally made their way to their seats.





"32 minute and-" Lara got cut off by her son "Daddy is going on" "exactly" she smiled and there was another cut "its now the 69 minute" she was starring at the pitch silently while her eyes went wide "GOAL" screamed everyone and you could hear Ronnies voice the loudest "Rodri scored" Lara smiled and the clip cut "one more minute" it was silent again til you could hear Ronnie screaming "WE WON" Lara couldn't contain her excitement as she joined in the jubilant celebration erupting around her. The stadium filled with a sea of cheers, and Ronnie's voice rang out above them all, his innocent enthusiasm contagious. She clutched his small hand tightly, sharing in his joy. "We did it, buddy! ManCity won!" Lara exclaimed, her voice filled with pride and happiness. The energy in the air was electric as fans embraced the victory, savoring the moment together. As the final whistle blew, signaling the end of the match, Lara and Ronnie remained in their seats, taking in the scene unfolding before them. The players on the field embraced one another, their smiles beaming with pure elation. Among them was Phil, his face adorned with a mix of relief and joy, basking in the triumph of the championship. Lara turned to Ronnie, her eyes shimmering with tears of joy. "You see, sweetheart? Your daddy did it! He won the Champions League," she said, her voice filled with love and pride. Ronnie's eyes widened with awe, realizing the significance of the moment. "We won, Mommy! Daddy helped us win!" Ronnie exclaimed, his voice filled with wonder and excitement. Lara nodded, her heart bursting with pride for Phil's achievements on the field. It was a testament to his hard work, dedication, and the incredible talent he possessed.

"Mommy, can we see Daddy now?" Ronnie asked eagerly after the players got their medals and the trophy was lifted, tugging on Lara's hand. She smiled down at him, her heart swelling with love. "Of course, sweetheart. Let's go find your daddy." They made their way down the stairs in middle of the other WAGs and their kids. Once their were on the pitch Ronnie let go of his mothers hand and ran off to his dad. Lara smiled as she also walked into the same direction. "You won, Daddy" said Ronnie who jumped into his dads arms. "Yeah we won" Phil smiled as he kissed his sons cheek and took his medal off and let if fall around Ronnies neck. Since the 4 year old was easily distracted he already ran off with the kids of the other players once his mother was standing next to his father. "Congrats" she hugged her boyfriend "I love you" was the first thing Phil said to her before he lifted her a few centimetres of the ground and kissed her "I love you too and I am very proud of you" Lara smiled as he sat her back down and put an arm around her his waist. They stood there for a moment, basking in the joy and accomplishment of the evening. The stadium lights illuminated their surroundings, casting a magical glow on their intertwined figures. "We did it, Lara," Phil said, his voice filled with a mix of exhilaration and relief. "I couldn't have done it without you and Ronnie by my side." Lara's heart swelled with warmth at his words. "We've always believed in you, Phil. Seeing you reach this milestone fills me with so much happiness. You're an incredible player and an amazing father." Phil pulled her closer, his gaze filled with love and adoration. "You're my rock, Lara. Your support and love mean everything to me. I couldn't ask for a better partner in life." As they stood there, embraced in each other's arms, a wave of gratitude washed over them. They knew the challenges they had overcome as a couple, the sacrifices made to navigate their demanding careers and maintain a strong bond. Through it all, their love had only grown stronger. A tap on Phil's shoulder interrupted their intimate moment. Ronnie stood there, grinning from ear to ear, holding onto the hand of one of the player's children. "Daddy, can we take a picture together?" Phil laughed, his heart melting at the sight of his son. "Of course, little man! Come on, let's capture this moment." Lara stepped back to allow Ronnie to stand beside his father, a proud smile adorning her face. She watched as they posed for the photo, Ronnie proudly wearing his father's medal around his neck. The camera clicked, capturing the love and joy radiating from the trio. After the photo, Ronnie excitedly ran off with his newfound friends, leaving Phil and Lara alone once again. Phil intertwined his fingers with Lara's, their hands fitting together perfectly. "I'm so grateful for our little family," Phil murmured, his eyes filled with tenderness. "Seeing Ronnie's smile and knowing we're in this together, it's everything I've ever wanted." Lara leaned in and kissed Phil softly, the moment filled with an overwhelming sense of contentment. "I feel the same way, Phil. Our love and the bond we share with Ronnie, it's the greatest gift in the world." As the celebrations continued around them, Phil and Lara stood there, cherishing their love and the triumph of the night. The journey they had embarked on, from high school sweethearts to this very moment, had been filled with ups and downs, but their unwavering commitment to each other had brought them here. Later that evening Phil made his way to the locker room with Ronnie on his shoulders. Lara stayed with the WAGs and they were chatting til she got a text from Phil telling her that she should pick up Ronnie, because he is sleepy. She did that and went back to her hotel with Ronnie already asleep in her arms.
