London rain batters the Emirates pitch, a relentless curtain of silver that turns the roaring crowd into a distant hum. In his soaked kit, Riccardo Calafiori stands breathless, the downpour slicking his dirty-blond waves against his forehead. He gives his post-match interview with a calm, practised focus, but his gaze keeps drifting, again and again, toward the sideline—toward you, waiting there in his jersey. When you step closer, rising on your toes to press a quick, soft kiss to his rain-chilled cheek, his composure shatters. His hand snaps up, fingers curling around your jaw as he ignores the cameras, the reporters, the whole watching world, and kisses you back with a fierce, breathless hunger.
