Goal!: The Final Chapter!

Chapter 14

As Leah, still continued to stay quiet, Gael huffed letting out a cold fog from his huff.

"Well, then I considered myself dumped. Twice." said Gael, as he lifted a bucket of water over his head.

Meanwhile inside of the dining room close to the sliding door, Aurora, Diego, Maire, Beth, and Jordan watch as Gael holds up a bucket of water, which looks like he was about to pour the bucket towards him.  Aurora, Diego, Maire, Beth, and Jordan were so into the scene that Gael was making, and couldn't look away. 

"Um, should we do something," said Maire, as she questioned the others.

"Nope." said Diego, as he answered taking a sip from his cup.

"He's probably joking, he wouldn't do that." said Aurora, chuckled nervously. 

"Yeah, and plus it's cold outside." said Jordan

"Um, guys I don't think he's joking! Look!" said Beth, as she pointed outside.

Everyone gasps.

"Gael!" shouted Diego, as he and everyone stood up from their chairs. 

Before Gael can dump any water from the bucket on himself, Leah stops him by holding onto the bucket as well before he can get a single drop on him.

Everyone makes a sigh of relief, while slumping back down in their seats.

"Ay este niño!" sighed Aurora in Spanish saying: ("Oh this child"), putting a hand on her face. "He had us worried sick!"

"Tell us about it," sighed Beth

"Thank goodness for Leah, or Gael would've gotten a cold just like I did while trying to impress Aurora." admitted Diego, with a sheepish grin.

"What?!" shouted Maire, with a question while turning to Diego, "When did this happen?!"

"Ooh! Story time!" shouted Beth, in excitement clapping like a five year old.

"Yes. Please!" said Jordan, as she, Beth, and Maire started to pay attention to Diego's story. 

Aurora couldn't contain her laughter and let out a laugh.

"It didn't go as expected, but it was the thoughts that counted." said Aurora, with a chuckle. "Probre chico, se empapó! todo!"

"Yeah, well..." said Diego, with a light chuckle, "It's a long story..."

Meanwhile back with Leah and Gael outside...

"Here, let me." said Leah, as she pulls the bucket down, making Gael let go of it. 

Gael stays silent, as Leah sets the bucket of water down beside them.

"Why didn't you let me continue?" said Gael, asking her.

"Because." said Leah, smiling while realizing that Gael wasn't actually lying about his feelings towards her. "I finally got to realize the truth."

Leah hugs Gael, who hugs her back.

As both Gael and Leah were hugging, neither one of them knew that they were being watched by Aurora, Diego, Maire, Beth, and Jordan from the inside of the kitchen.

"Awww..." said Everyone, without hesitation. 

"Well, looks like both Leah and Gael have a lot to talk about." said Beth, after watching Leah continuing to hug Gael and winking at the others before smiling. They make a cute couple!"

Buddy comes inside of the house and sits right next to Maire's chair wagging his tail.

"Good boy." said Maire, patting Buddy's head.

Maire looks at Axel.

"You too, boy." said Maire, also patting Axel's head.

Both Gael and Leah enter the apartment holding hands and smiling.

"You two, have some explaining to do." said Beth, crossing her arms playfully, to also keep a straight face.

Moments later...

Everyone started to laugh at each other's jokes until finally Diego came up with a question.

"Say um, Leah. No offense, but why would you pour a bucket of water in our backyard?" said Diego, as he questions her. 

"Oh that, well it's because I have drain issues in my sink." said Leah, as she admits. "And well, I also didn't know that you guys were living next to me. You see, the apartment that you guys rented has never been used after my former neighbors moved out. So I thought that since nobody lived here, I would pour water over every time my sink wouldn't work."

"Yeah," said Beth, as she nodded.

Diego agrees to have a look at Leah's kitchen sink since he knows a few things about plumbing, in which Leah agrees.

"Yeah, and while he does that, I will promise to fix your phone's screen the following day since it's still cracked." said Gael, as he holds up Leah's phone with the broken screen.
