The relationship between Aaron and Millie are still normal despite the fact that they nearly kissed that night. Both of them just act like nothing was happened.

"When will you make Mil as your official girlfriend?" asked Chris as they walked home from the training ground.

"Well, who knows. There's no proof that she likes me too" replied Aaron.

"Just try it. You can always avoid her if she rejects you" said Chris.

"I'll think about it" replied Aaron.

"What about this; if we can defeat Liverpool with at least 3 goal differences this weekend, you must confess to her" said Chris.

"I don't know, mate. I never confess before" replied Aaron.

"Oh, c'mon mate" said Chris.

"Besides, it's Liverpool we're talking about" replied Aaron.

"Scare?" asked Chris.

"No, I'm not" replied Aaron.

"Then, accept my challenge" said Chris.

"Can I consider it first?" asked Aaron.

"So, you are scare" replied Chris.

"Hell no. Okay then. I accept that challenge" said Aaron.

"I guess you're the type that up for a challenge, huh" said Chris then. Aaron sighed.

"It's Alex that made me be one" replied Aaron.

"Seriously, mate. You should go and talk to her again. You miss her a lot" said Chris.

"No, I won't. She said it clearly that she wished that I'm not her brother. She might already blocks me from all place including social media" replied Aaron.

"But I'm sure that she feels the same. You're so close with her since we're just a little boy" said Chris.

"Can we please not talking about this?" asked Aaron.

"Fine. I'm sorry" replied Chris.

"It's okay" said Aaron.

Later on;

Aaron was just lying down on his bed when he got a call from Millie.

Aaron: Hi, Mil.

Millie: Hi, mate. What are you doing right now?

Aaron: Nothing. Why?

Millie: Great. Let's go for a lunch together.

Aaron: Are you forcing me to do so?

Millie: No. It's okay if you didn't want to.

Aaron: Like I can easily say no to you. Just one thing, wear a pants and jacket please.

Millie: Oh, really? Why is that?

Aaron: You'll know it later.

Millie: Okay, mate. See you later.

Aaron: Bye.

Then, they hung up. Aaron then changed into his riding attire. As he walked out from his room, he saw Chris and Tooney are playing FIFA 20 together.

"You left Mil alone, Tooney?" asked Aaron.

"Well, she'll end up calling you though. So, before she leave me, I left her first" replied Tooney.

"Going out with Mil, aren't you?" asked Chris.

"Yes. So, both of you. Please behave yourselves and don't moan too loud" replied Aaron.

"Fuck off, mate" said Chris. Aaron just chuckled before left.

"What does that mean?" asked Tooney.

"Don't bother. He's crazy" replied Chris. Tooney was confused.

Later on;

Millie just got a text from Aaron that he's already here. Millie then puts on her boots before walked out from her place. She was surprised as Aaron is coming to pick her up with his new bike.

"Where did you even get this?" asked Millie.

"I stole it. From the bike shop of course, duh" replied Aaron. Millie giggled.

"It's beautiful" said Millie.

"Of course it is. Now, wear this and get on this horse" replied Aaron before handed over a helmet to Millie. Millie then puts it on before gets on the bike.

"Okay. Let's ride" said Millie.

"Yes, ma'am" replied Aaron before ride away.

After a short ride;

Aaron and Millie arrived at Alston Bar and Beef.

"We'll be eating here if you don't mind" said Aaron.

"Of course not. I love beef" replied Millie as both of them enters the restaurant.

"So, is Tooney at your place?" asked Millie after they ordering their food.

"Yeah. She's playing FIFA with Chris just now but who knows what are they doing right now" replied Aaron.

"So, how do you feel about this week match against Liverpool?" asked Millie.

"Nothing special. Just hope that I can continue my momentum" replied Aaron.

"I'm sure you will. You have a great individual skills and teammates after all" said Millie.

"Same goes to Liverpool. It will be a great match for sure" replied Aaron.

"Mind if I ask you something personal?" asked Millie.

"Sure. What is it" replied Aaron.

"Will you ever consider to have a girlfriend in the future?" asked Millie.

"Of course I do. You didn't expect me to be single forever, right" replied Aaron.

"You're not?" asked Millie causing Aaron to kick her leg playfully. "Hey!" Aaron just chuckled. Later, their food came and they started to eat.

Later on;

Aaron sent Millie back home.

"Thanks for a ride, Aaron" said Millie.

"No problem, mate. And keep the helmet. This is not the only time you'll ride with me" replied Aaron.

"Okay. Ride safely" said Millie.

"Bye, Mil" replied Aaron. After a quick hug, Aaron rides away.

"Did he likes me or something? No. We're just bestfriend after all" muttered Millie alone before enters her place.

"Remember the challenge, mate" said Chris.

"I know that" replied Aaron.

"What challenge?" asked Pirlo.

PRIIIIIITTTT

Chris then runs with the ball before sent it through to Aaron. Aaron then found some space before shoots. Alisson tried to make a save but failed as the ball hits the net for Manchester United to lead 1-0.

"What a teamwork!" said Katie.

"That's true. Their movements are smooth as hell" replied Jackie.

"That's why our boys there is leading the table now" said Tooney.

Meanwhile on the pitch;

"2 more, mate" said Chris as they celebrating the goal.

"Oh, shut up" replied Aaron. Chris just chuckled.

Later on;

It is 34 minutes in the match where the score now is still 1-0. That moment, Manchester United was awarded a corner kick. After the referee blew his whistle, Chris sent the ball into the penalty box before Pirlo heads it but it hits the post. Luckily, the ball bounced back to the direction where Aaron is waiting. He then heads the ball into the net to make it 2-0 on the score line.

"GOOOOOOAAAAALLLLL!!!" cheered the whole stadium.

"They're really put on their top game" said Katie.

"That's true. Can we say that we have this game in our bag now?" asked Fran.

"Not yet. Liverpool will play better in the 2nd half for sute. Our boys need to watch out" replied Tooney.

"That's true" said Jackie then.

Half time;

"Nice play as usual, lads. Let's keep it up in the 2nd half" said Maguire as all players are inside the dressing room.

"Let's make it at least 3 goal differences, lads. So that we can see Aaron confess to Mil" said Chris.

"Ah, shut up, Beckham" replied Aaron.

"Wait, what? Why don't you say it earlier? Okay, lads. Let's destroy Liverpool" said Bruno.

"Yes. For the sake of our lovebirds" said Rashford. Later, Solksjær came in to brief about his tactical for the 2nd half.

Later on;

The match resumed with Manchester United kicked off the 2nd half.

"I have a good feeling about this match" said Jackie.

"Yeah, me too. I don't know why" replied Fran.

"Maybe Aaron will confess to you after this match" said Tooney.

"Yeah, right. Really funny" replied Millie.

"Will you accepted it if he did, Mil?" asked Katie.

"I don't know. But I'm sure that he won't do it" replied Millie.

"Let's wait and see" said Katie.

Later;

At the 79th minute of the match, Manchester United was awarded a freekick 32-metres from the goal.

"Want to test your luck, mate?" asked Chris.

"Well, it might not be my favourite spot but why not" replied Aaron before took the ball from Chris and set it up. Aaron then saw Alisson's position is a bit further from the goal.

"Okay, then. Let see if it can be happened again after 17 years" said inner Aaron. As the referee blew his whistle, Aaron shoots the ball instead of crossing into the penalty box.

Alisson jumped to save it but failed as the ball made it into the net to give Manchester United a 3rd goal of the match.

"Wait. Isn't that the same goal that Brazil used to kick our golden men squad out from 2002 World Cup?" asked Millie.

"That's true. Never expecting to see this goal again. Not to mention, it was used against a Brazilian's goalkeeper this time" replied Katie.

"I can't believe LA Galaxy sold him to us just for £ 2,000,000" said Jackie.

"Well, we can't expect a 'soccer' nation to know a value of a 'football' player, right" replied Tooney. The rest just giggled. Few minutes later, the match ended with a final score Manchester United 3-0 Liverpool.

"Well, mate. You know what is this meant" said Chris as they just entering the dressing room.

"I know that. I'll walk home with her then" replied Aaron.

"Good luck" said Chris. Aaron just sighed.

Later on;

Aaron and Millie walked home together.

"I never thought that you'll want to walk home with me after the match, Aaron. The last time we did, you're complaining" said Millie. Aaron chuckled.

"Well, I have something important to tell you" replied Aaron.

"Well, what is it?" asked Millie.

"Look, Mil. We have known each other for a while now. I want you to know that I'm glad to get to know you" said Aaron then.

"Same goes to me, mate. But, why did you bring it up now?" asked Millie then.

"Mil, I love you. More than a friend. Will you be my girlfriend?" asked Aaron then causing Millie to shock.

"Aaron, I....."

Do you think Millie will say yes? Or will she say that 'We're better stay as bestfriend? Stay safe, guys.
