Today was Champions League day, the day in which Liverpool start this seasons Champions League campaign off. Me personally was pretty excited to be sitting on the sidelines of a champions league game as I had never been to a champions League game only Premier League ones.

I lay in my bed in my hotel room looking outside through the crack in the curtains watching as everyone started their day. Last night was fun being with some of the boys in the games room downstairs but just getting to spend time with trent. That was my advantage working for Liverpool majority of my day will and would be spent with the Liverpool boys and Jurgen. I had formed a solid relationship with Jurgen and I was very grateful for him outting my name down for me to come along away on this Champions League trip as if it weren't for him I would still be at home probably on my own looking at Flats to rent and thinking everything through.

I had been looking for flats and luckily managed to find a few i liked and when i got back I would be going and having a look and taking a big step in moving out my uni accommodation and moving into my own little place. After the date the other night I really want to see my mum but because things were left quite sour last time I havent really got the confidence to get in touch with her, don't get me wrong I'm prepared for her sarcasm and her judging me but i wasn't ready for her to call trent when in fairness she doesn't know him as a person and on how funny he is and how he scratches his neck when he's nervous. All she can see is the articles on him if their are any that is.

I stopped thinking about my mum and how she would take the whole thing of me growing closer to trent and got out of bed and ran a cold shower and just for a minute thought about the positive things in life that I have, My friends and my new friends, how good my job is and how I'm very grateful to have those people around me and how I'm financially able to look for a flat of my own.

After i had a shower I got dressed in some jeans and my grey Liverpool Top and put my lanyard around my neck which proved who I was and who I was with. After i had got dressed I pick my ohone up from the side to see i had a message from Trent,

Morning, me and Joe are going down for breakfast. Do you want to come? x

Morning, Yeah hold up let me get my shoes on x

I put my phone in my pocket of my jeans and put my converse on and opened the door to see Joe stood on his phone and Trent with his hands in his pocket "Morning boys" trent smiles and gives me a hug and Joe stands their "Morning" i smiled and then we started walking down the stairs to the canteen area. Joe was in front of me and trent on his phone and me and trent were so close our hands kept touching and before we could hold hands we had arrived at the canteen and so we moved away but we both wanted to hold eachothers hands in that moment.

The canteen was already filling up with the players and staff, Virgil seen me as he was sat with Gini eating he held up his hand "Morning" i smiled "Morning Virg" he smiled and csrried on eating as i carried on walking over to the counter. Trent passed me a plate and a knife and fork "Thank you" he smiled "No problem" he said as he moved down the counter and got his breakfast. Throughout the whole time i was choosing what I wanted for breakfast he was looking at smiling "Have I got something on my face or something?" He laughed "No maia you haven't, I'm looking at you because of beauty" I smiled "Aww thank you" he smiled and i leaned over and gave him a kiss on his lips and he laughed "That was nice" he said as he carried on picking his food.

After we picked our food we walked over to a table that had James, hendo and Ox on they all looked up as we both walked over laughing as i made a joke how much food he had on his plate. "You two are just my favourites" Hendo said as he looked at me and Trent and we both smiled.

Once breakfast was all eaten i went along with the boys to the Games room and some of the other boys went upstairs to their rooms. I was currently sat with hendo on a sofa as trent and Ox were currently having a game of pool in which Trent was losing so far. Hendo turned to me "So you happy?" I looked at him quite confused "What do you mean?" He smiled "Come on Maia, you know what I'm on about. Are you happy with mr scouser over there" he said as he pointed to trent and i looked at him then at trent "Honestly yes. Never been happier" he smiled "One thing you probably don't know, is when your not around your all he talks about. He never shuts up about you" i laughed "That's cute, I didn't know that" he smiled "Im glad you make him happy, I honestly am. You both deserve to be happy. And thank you for being there for Marie during the pregnancy. She's another person who doesn't shut up about you" i laughed "What can i say I'm a likable person, but no of course she's one of my closest friends" he smiled and leaned over and gave me a hug.

Ox ended up winning and now Trent was sat sulking next to me "Come on trent Cheer up" i said as i stroked the back of his neck and played with his curly hair "Okay sorry" I smiled and he leant his head back and kissed me. Ox came aalking over with a grin on his face "No hard feelings bro" he said as he held out his hand and trent got up from the sofa and shook it. "See you two can be friends" James said as he walked over to the two boys and hugged them both I laughed as well as the boys. During the time spent in the games room I uploaded on the Clubs social medias.

Another European chapter begins tonight ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #ChampionsLeague #LFC #ThisMeansMore

It was now later and kickoff was coming up and we were due soon to travel to the staduim but now we were going back to the canteen for something to eat before the game, me opting for Pasta and so did Trent.

After we all ate our food I went up to my room and got my camera ready to take photos and my portable charger to charge my phone while the match was being played i put them all in my bag. Marie had sent over the templates for the game and all I had to do was edit them then post them.

After i got everything ready i walked down to reception and waited for the boys to arrive to go to the ground. I had spent majority of the afternoon in the games room with the boys having fun and growing so much closer to them.

The boys arrived and we all boarded the bus, with me sitting near the window obviously sat next to trent and Joe and Virgil at the back of us. On the way to the ground i listened to drake through trents Headphone.

We arrived and trent got up "See you in there" he said as he stroked my arm and walked down the middle of the bus and got off and i felt my body shiver with his touch. Virgil seen me "He has that much effect on you hey" i laughed "No it's just cold in here" he laughed and shook his head and walked down the middle and got off the bus leaving me trying to recover before I got off the bus.

After i pulled myself together by doing some breathing exercises I got off the bus and showed security my pass and walked straight to the room right next to the changing rooms. When u arrived i put my bag on the table in the far corner and pulled my camera out and started to set it up.

The room was very basic with it having a TV on the wall ready to show the game, the sofa and chair on the right side of the room and the table that wasn't really that big on the left side. The room was really small so with the pieces of furniture in here i was really squished but I didn't really care as I would be on the benches all match and just come back at the end of the game. My plan for tonights game was during halftime to take photos of the subs.

I stood with my back to the door and set up my camera ready to go out and take photos of the biys when their was a knock on the door "Come in" i shouted while i was taking the lense protector off, i heard the door open and i turned around to see Pep the assistant manager "Hi Jurgen asked me to give you the team news" i smiled as i took the sheet of paper "Thank you Pep and tell Jurgen thank you" he smiled and left closing the door behind him.

I edited the template marie had sent over earlier and updated all the social accounts with the team news.

Our journey starts NOW!! #ChampionsLeague #LFC #UCL

Come on boys! ❤

The boys were now on the pitch warming up for the game and I was currently walking around near the boys and Jurgen taking photos and getting the content for the social media accounts.

Jurgen spotted me "Hi maia, did you get the team news?" I smiled "Hi Jurgen, yeah i did. Thank you" he smiled and i looked up at him "Thank you for putting my name down to travel" he smiled did his famous laugh "Maia, i love your photography skills and I thought you deserve a chance to shine. And so far my decision was right" i smiled and he hugged me quick before going back to watching the Napoli team warm up.

The boys had warmed up and I was now sat on the bench sat next to Ox and Joe waiting for the boys to walk out and when they did, you definitely heard them as the ground erupted in noise. The champions league theme song ran out around the staduim and I felt shivers down my spine as it was my first champions league game ever and I got to witness it from the bench, I felt so privileged in that very moment.

Bith teams got into position and Jurgen was stood waiting for the game to start and it did when the referee blew his whistle and the game commenced.

Liverpool had quite a few chances but napolis goalkeeper saved them and so did their defence. The referee blew his halftime whistle and i sighed as their was yet no goals but Liverpool had been the better team in the first half.

Ox, Joe, Gini, Shaq, Dejan and Adam all started warming up and so i took the opportunity to take pictures of them.

After about 10 minutes of just standing there taking pictures of them warming up, it was time for rhe second half and so i made my way back to the bench with the subs and then the boys came out and got into their Positions.

The referee blew his whistle and the second half began. Throughout the second half Liverpool really seemed to lack the confidence and at the 82nd minute a mistake by Adrian meant that Napoli were now winning 1-0. I watched from the bench as the boys who were on the pitch walked away feeling deflated.

After Napoli celebrating their goal the game continued and then the FA decided to add 4 minutes extra time and so we tried our hardest to get a goal back but obviously tonight wasn't our night as we let in another goal and it was now 2-0. I put my head in my hands and watched as jurgen look so frustrated at the fact we just let another goal in and of our performance in the second half.

I stood up from my seat and walked onto the pitch and took photos of the boys even when they were probably feeling low because they had just lost. After the boys had clapped for the away fans I made my way inside and straight to the room and started to edit the template marie had sent me.

I hadn't really spoken to any of the boys yet as I was busy taking photos and needed to update the socials.

Not the result we wanted but onto the next game! 🔴🔴 #LIVERPOOLFC #ChampionsLeague #UCL #YNWA

We go again ❤

We go again boys! We will come back better and stronger 💪🙌

Usually after games and Training sessions i send photos I've taken to the boys and so i sent the photos i had taken which I found good and sent them to the boys. I sat on the sofa just watching the highlights that were being shown on the tv and i just felt sad at the fact that the first half they were really good and deserved to be 2 nil up before halftime but obviously tonight wasn't our night and we had to get ourselves together for the Chelsea game on Saturday which was away.

Not the start we wanted - but there's a long way to go in the group #YNWA
