From the moment Jude Bellingham signed for Borussia Dortmund, there was one player he couldn't stand. Erling Haaland. Cocky. Competitive. Infuriating. The kind of teammate who celebrated every goal like it was a personal victory over Jude. Erling wasn't exactly Jude's biggest fan either. Jude was loud, stubborn, and somehow managed to turn every training session into a competition. They challenged each other over everything. Who could score the most goals. Who could finish first in fitness drills. Who could get under the other's skin the fastest. The answer was always... both. To the rest of the squad, they were football's biggest rivalry waiting to explode. To their coaches, they were a headache. To themselves... They were just two teammates who refused to admit they secretly made each other better. But as one season changes everything, the line between rivalry and attraction begins to blur. Because sometimes the hardest part of football isn't staying onside. It's admitting your heart has already crossed the line. 🥹🏳️‍🌈👈

Jude. For fucks sake you know I'm on a date, what is it?' The call was silent for a few seconds, the only sound Erling could hear was Jude's quickened breath. 'Erling.' Jude's voice broke as he spoke. 'Jude?' The anger had left Erling's voice, replaced with genuine concern. 'I think I made a mistake. I think I've been making mistakes for weeks.' ^ Cheeky sneak peak :) - Jude Bellingham and Erling Haaland were two footballers playing for Borussia Dortmund, both desperate to convince themselves their friendship is platonic.

You don't need to be into football, or even know who the players are to read, it's a story of two footballers falling in love against the odds, fighting social pressure, internalised homophobia and the media. (Haalingham fanfic, cleated rivalry/ heated rivalry vibes. All entirely fiction... as far as we know)

Football brought them together. The world watched them become stars At first, they're just teammates, then they're friends. Then somewhere between shared victories and painful defeats, become something neither of them knows how to name. But football doesn't wait for anyone. Transfers happen. Dreams change. Distances grow. When the careers they've sacrificed everything for begin pulling them in different directions, Jude and Erling have to decide what matters more: the game that brought them together, or the person who made them want to stay. Because sometimes you spend your whole life chasing a dream only to realise the best thing you ever found was never the trophy. It was the person standing beside you.

When duty pulls them to different leagues and opposing paths, they meet again as fierce rivals on the pitch.

Try to bury secrets, and they'll flood right back up. How will Jude and Erling react when they meet again, for the world cup, and play a match against one another? Learn the story from Erling's shaky words. DISCLAIMER: everything is fiction. Those are real people. Let's support their healthy masculinity.

Jude Bellingham had been admiring Erling Haaland for years from afar, of course. The striker was everything Jude wasn't supposed to want. When he finally joins Dortmund, he swears it's just about football. But being close to Haaland is making it harder and harder to keep lying to himself. Some lines aren't meant to be crossed. Especially when your idol starts looking back.

A LOVE STORY BETWEEN JUDE BELLINGHAM AND ERLING HAALAND ❤️❤️❤️ It all started the summer of 2020. Two hard-working players, competing to be the best they can, cross paths and nothing will ever be the same. Jude and Erling have a lot more in common then they initially assume, but as tension rises between them, so do other feelings. Feelings that neither man is familiar or even comfortable with. Jude is insistent on loathing Haaland's very existence, but how long can he keep this up for when he simultaneously fancies the pants off him? What will happen between these "teammates" in a story of rivals, undeniable connection, and...balls. Both kind.

Haaland gripped Bellingham's hand tightly to keep him from slipping away again. "Is that baby mine?" He asked with a serious look and a cold voice; he just wanted him to tell the truth for once. Jude bit his lip, refusing to speak, since Erling already had a girlfriend and a child. Making an adaptation in English, thanks to bluemeli_77
