William is the little prince of La Fábrica, the sharpest arrow forged over years of training in Real Madrid's youth academy, and the youngest player ever to score a hat trick in a Champions League final. He is an unparalleled genius with extraordinary talent.
What if he also had a handsome, sexy, impossibly beautiful face?
After the Champions League semifinal, Manchester City fans, driven mad by a last-second winner, roared in fury: "Just give him an Oscar already! With acting that good, he should be in movies, not coming to our home ground to steal our trophy!"
After Barcelona were thrashed in both El Clásico matches, their fans said: "Doesn't Hollywood have money? Hurry up and pay to take him away!!! Don't let him set foot on the pitch. I never want to see him at Camp Nou again."
People speculated about his mysterious background. This beautiful boy, a graduate of Eton and a newly admitted student at Cambridge, had appeared at the Bernabéu without warning. People criticized his wild, untamed nature, and rumors kept surfacing about him and Mbappé's girlfriend.
But everyone who seems to have it all has their own troubles.
Superstars from the slums are hardly rare: Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, both from Brazilian favelas, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who grew up poor. People are used to inspirational stories of struggle and rising from humble beginnings.
But a superstar born into a family of wealth is nothing more than a legend. Why a legend? Because none exist.
William Norman Hearst, a genuine third-generation billionaire and the ultimate winner in life with both American and British citizenship.
It all vanished into thin air when his father printed "The Hearst Family" across the front of Real Madrid's jerseys. He clutched his secret identity tightly and crouched on the Castile training ground, trembling.
William recalled his first training session with the first team. His father patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Son, don't worry. You're the best. You know your family will always be your biggest supporters."
William closed his eyes in despair. "Oh God, save me! Dad, you really are my father!"
Question:
Your dad is Real Madrid's biggest sponsor, your boyfriend is the team's midfield core, and your brother-in-law is going to be the team's future star. Mr. Norman Hearst, what are you thinking right now? Anything you'd like to share? Do you get to do whatever you want at the club?
"Thanks for asking. I'm actually in the US. Just got off the plane. No thoughts, and I don't get to do whatever I want. I nearly ended up flat on my back."
Pairing: William x Jude Bellingham. The author is a fake fan, with plenty of fictional details. A passionate, funny slice-of-life story. Please don't nitpick, thanks.
