It's been a couple of days since I arrived in the olympics village and to be honest I have been overjoyed. It's feels so sureal. I still feel like I'm not in the olympics but I have to mentally slap myself because I'm in the olympics for real. I haven't chatted with a lot of olympians but I get along with my roomate Esteban Ruiz. He's funny and nice. He helped me get used to the life of an olympian in the olympics. He is a swimmer like me. Trough this is his second olympics unlike me. He wasn't able to win a medal in his first olympics but he told me that he wants one this time. Besides that I facetime my parents everyday to let them know everything is going well because they couldn't make it to the olympics. For the last 3 weeks I've been training like every olympians. Today is finally the opening ceromony. It's an exciting moment. We will be on tv for the first time. Sadly I'm not apart of the team Spain's opening ceromony but me and my teamates will be watching from the hotel. Tomorow is July 29th the day the 2020 Washington olympics are set to start. I will start competing on August 3trd in the 100 meters race.

July 28th 7pm
The opening ceromony is about to start. I can't wait to see the beautiful show they always put on. I always loved this part of the olympics since I started watching it when I was 7 years old. I'm siting next to my rommate Esteban. While we chated they started the opening ceromony. We stopped chating just to see how beautiful the lights, the theme and the dance choreography were. I don't know a lot of stuff about Washington but so far it proved to be a beautiful city and also a great city for hosting the olympics. After more then 1 hour, the countries started walking in the stadium with their flag. It is definitely a beautiful sight. I reconized a couple of olympians but that's it. Then it came the time for our country to walk in the stadium with the Spain flag. We cheared even trough they couldn't here us. About more then 30 mins later, it came the time for the infamous United-States country. I don't have anything agianst them it's just that they are one of the best in swimming witch makes me have no chance against them. Enzo Buckley is holding the USA flag with boxer Emma Young. Not gonna lie Enzo Buckley is handsome but he's off limits. I chose to ignore those feelings. About 30 mins later the opening ceromony is over and we start to head in our room to go to sleep. This Olympic is gonna be memorable.

Next day
The olympics started this morning and we already have a medal in boxing. Sometimes I wonder how we had a medal this fast but I'm happy for our first medal. I still train in the meantime because in 5 days the quarter finals are starting in swimming for man and I want to make sure I do my best.

August 3trd
Today is the day! I'm currently heading to the swimming center with my coach. My roomate will come support me during the race. I will be competing against Australia, Hungary, Mexico, England, Japan, China and yeah the US. It bothers me to compete against team USA because it is Enzo Buckley that will be the one competing. He is arguably one of the best swimmer in the world. I don't stand a chance against him and that sucks. I never won a medal before in the championships. I'm here to prove to the world why I'm here. Not show them I can't win because of Enzo Buckley of all people.

At the swimming center
They start annoucing my name first before the race. I go prepare myself till I see Enzo Buckley. Never would of tought I would see him in real life let alone compete against him but he still can't be the reason why I don't win a medal. Everyone is getting ready. Before the race started, me and Enzo Buckley made eye contact. I wanted to react to it but we had to jump to start the race. Enzo Buckley finished first like always but I magically finished 4th witch means I will go in the semifinals. Before I got intervied, Enzo decided he wanted to congratulate me for making it to the semifinals. I never tought he would talk to me let alone congratulate me! What should I do?
Here is episode 4. They finally meet! Just to make you guys remember the things mentioned in this story is not information from real life. There is plenty of LGBTQIA2+ olympians but in this universe I chose that there is no other LGBTQIA2+ olympians other than Enzo and Enrique. Thank you for reading this episode!
Two olympians competing for medals meet at the Washington Olympics and fall in love. This is the story of American olympian Enzo Buckley and Spanish olympian Enrique Martinez. Almost 25 years old Enzo Buckley is making his third appearance in the Olympics for swimming. He has the perfect life, a high class family, popularity and so on. He is dating actress Nevaeh Steward.
On the other hand, 23 years old Enrique Martinez is making his first olympics appearance after not qualifying for the 2016 Johannesburg Olympics for swimming. Not qualifying for the Olympics detroyed his mental health but after years of his supportive parents encouraging him to try again, he listened to his parents and got qualified.
What happens when they meet and both fell in love with each other when no other olympian has never publicly came out to the world? Follow the ups and downs of our two olympians love story.
