PEDRIS POV
we lost due penalties . it hurts . i mean loosing is one thing , but in penalties it's just painful because it was one mistake . when all the morocco players ran around the pitch , i realized that it was all over now and plopped on the floor . i was on the verge of tears when i saw my brother and amara approaching me . they both lowered down to my level and hugged me . i did the same , but i was still shocked and sad and just overwhelmed . after a while of hugging my brother was gone and amara helped me to stand up .
i saw her eyes looking around for someone . i know who she's hoping to see . my best friend . i think she spotted him because her expression turned from sad to sadder .
„you should go over to him"
i tried to encourage her snd she sighed , shaking her head .
„i don't want to cause any more pain , pedri . now that we're out of the world cup , i need to fly back with you and i won't lie to you , i am going to speak with xavi about the possibility of me staying here"
„you won't come back with all of us?"
„if xavi agrees , then no"
i was obviously sad about that because she really grew on me , but i wouldn't want to go back either if i didn't have to .
„our plane is already leaving tomorrow , will i see you before?"
„i'll make sure you do"
she sent me a comforting smile and left . but not without stealing a glance of the number 9 from the spanish team .
now that she was gone , i went over to gavi to be there for him . i know how badly his life is going at the moment .
„pablo? you good?"
„nope , especially not with you having something going on with my ex!"
wtf no .
„gavi what the heck , you know i wouldn't do that! you also know what she told you , should i repeat it? she doesn't want a relationship right now!"
„why were you hugging then?"
i know that he isn't angry with me , he is only angry at the situation and jealous that he didn't get a hug from his former girlfriend .
„because she is my friend gavi . believe it or not"
i probably shouldn't tell him about the chance that amara is going to stay in qatar without us , it would only make things worse .
i heard gavi sighing and he stood up , walking into the tunnel .
AMARAS POV
„are you sure about staying in qatar mi hija?"
„yes i am very sure"
„i want you to fly back with jude . no other person , okay? he is probably one of the only one's i can tolerate and that i can trust around you"
xavi knows about mine and pablos breakup , but he doesn't know why or that i have been ... touched .
„will do"
„okay then , it's settled . we probably won't see each other before i leave , so come here"
he walked up to me and we hugged .
„see you soon and keep me updated!"
„see you xavi"
i waved him goodbye and put my phone out to text pedri .
texts between „fav brunette" and „pedro 💘"
fav brunette
i am not leaving with you all tomorrow soo are you free now cuz i only have time until 6!!
pedro 💘
yeah i'm free , come over
*fav brunette hearted the message*
end of conversation .
i knocked at pedris door , it was already 5 and i am going to meet up with sira at 6 , to grab dinner with her before she leaves with all the other people from the spain team .
„hey"
„hi , wanna come in?"
i nodded and walked inside . i remember the night i slept here and pedri asking me about my future to keep me distracted from the very scary thunderstorm .
„what's wrong?"
pedri wanted to know , after seeing my saddened face .
„i just remember the night were i stayed here that's all"
„what exactly do you remember?"
he asked with a worried expression . he's keeping something from me about this .
„wait what are you trying to hide?"
„nothing"
„i'm not blind pedro"
he patted on the couch , signaling me to sit down next to him .
„you were having a nightmare and i couldn't stand seeing you upset and hearing your cries so i needed to do something . i went over to your bed and well ... crawled-"
i cut him off
„wait that wasn't a dream? i do remember that , but i thought it was a „good end" from my nightmare ... i remember you mumbling comforting things in my ear and calming me down . was that all real?"
„yeah"
„oh"
i stayed quiet for a while . i don't think he had any romantically involved thoughts or intentions while doing that , he wouldn't do that to his own best friend . still , i am very thankful for him because after all , he practically „ended" my nightmare .
„thank you pedri"
he smiled at me and we started to talk about barcelona . not the club , the city . we decided that both of us definitely need to go to a special place and watch the sunset because pedri was flabbergasted when he found out i have never been to this „special place" to watch the sunset in barcelona .
„i need to get going now , i'll see you soon pedri"
he hugged me and wished me goodbye , before i left his room to go to siras . it was weird spending time with him without gavis presence . he was a whole different person when his best friend isn't around ; he is way more funny and makes more jokes because normally gavi is the talking one and pedri the listener . he also has more of a ... own personality? which i quite liked . pedri is fun to be around and he knows when something's off , but also doesn't hesitate to tell the truth and be honest . with me .
his company kept me distracted and i didn't think about gavi once , even though pedro is his best friend .
