The Setbacks (Kylian Mbappé x Reader)

Planning

I got home tired but still felt on top of the clouds. I opened the door to see Béatrice and Bruna sitting at the dining room table.

"Hey, guys," I said as I closed the door and looked at them again, but this time they had their arms crossed, "Is this an intervention?"

"No, we just wanted to scare you," B said, "sit, we are planning the party."

"Alright," I went to put on something comfy and joined them at the table, "so what are you thinking?"

"Wait, before we start," Bruna said, "Ney is upset at you."

"Why?" I asked, confused.

"You told him you'd call last night," she said.

"Ohh shit!" I expressed, "I'm sorry, I got a bit busy."

"With what?" She asked.

"SHE HAD KYLIAN OVER!" B yelled in excitement, "it was so hard to be with you, Bruna, and not being able to tell you."

"WHAT?!" Bruna quickly asked wide-eyed.

"Nice one," I said, rolling my eyes.

"What? I waited till you got here," B said.

"I go out of Paris for two days," Bruna mentioned, "and you guys are having dates and sleeping together?!"

"What can I say? Things move fast in the city of lights," I giggled.

"So, does that mean you guys are dating?" Bruna asked.

I paused to think about it and realized that we weren't dating, and I was already falling so profoundly. Would he even want to date me?

"No," I answered.

"Well, the important thing is you guys make each other happy," Bruna said.

"And she's getting laid," B mentioned.

"That too," Bruna agreed, and we laughed.

"Yes, I guess so," I replied, "but anyways, what are we thinking for the party?"

"Renting a boat and going around the Seine," B said, "what do you think?"

"That's a perfect idea, B," I replied, impressed.

"Next week, Friday," she said, "will you still be around?"

"Yes," Bruna answered, "I'm only going on Sunday that week."

"What will we do without you?" I asked.

"Don't worry, it's not for long," she said, "Paris Fashion Week is in a month."

"And you'll be here to see me walk the runways, right?" B asked.

"Of course, I will," Bruna said.

*phone rings*

"It's Ney," Bruna mentioned, "I'm going to get this."

"Go ahead," I said.

So she got up and answered the call while B and I called boat companies to find out if a party boat was possible with the guest list we had filled with A-listers.

She came back and said, "the guys are coming here."

"Who's the 'guys'?" B asked.

"Ney, Thilo, Kylian and Presnel," Bruna answered.

We continued party planning, managed to book a boat and a decorator.

"This is going to be so glamorous," Bruna commented.

"Just like our B," I mentioned.

"Of course," she said, "I wouldn't want anything less."

"Of course," I said.

*doorbell rings*

I stood up, opened the door where all the guys were there, and said, "Hi guys, come in."

They all came in, Kylian was the last, and he hugged me.

"Ça va?(Are you good?)" He whispered.

"Yeah, you?" I asked back.

"Get a room, you guys!" Presnel yelled.

"Jaloux?(Jealous?)" Kylian asked as we let go of each other.

Instead of answering, he waved off the comment and sat down on the table, then asked, "what is all this?"

"The party of the year!" Béatrice said excitedly, "next Friday, clear your calendars!"

"You're lucky we are going to Nice on Wednesday for a game on Thursday," Thilo mentioned.

"When will you come back?" I asked.

"Friday morning," Ney said.

"Which reminds me," Bruna said, "do you guys want to come?"

"To Nice?" B asked.

"Yes," Bruna said, "I never been there, and since Ney is going, I figured why not?"

"That sounds good," B said, "I have a shoot on Monday, I have to settle the party things, and I am free all week!"

"Great!" Bruna expressed, "Y/n?"

The whole room looked at me, and I said, "I have work, guys."

"Can't you ask for a day off?" Bruna asked, "I mean, we will leave on Wednesday afternoon after your work, and we can come back on Friday morning so you can go to work. It's just one day."

"I don't know," I said nervously.

"That's it," B said and stood up, "I'm calling your dad!"

"You want to ask the workaholic if I should skip a day of work?" I asked sarcastically, "good luck."

She went to the other room, and we continued to talk. But before I could get more comfortable, I had to settle a score.

I went to Ney and told him, "we need to talk."

Before he could answer, I pulled him to the balcony and closed the glass doors behind us.

"First of all," I started to say, "I'm very sorry for not calling yesterday, I got swamped, and I completely forgot."

"It's okay, I got over it," he said, giggling, "I just like seeing you all nervous."

I gave him a light punch on his shoulder and said, "I hate it when you do that."

"But what were you doing?" He asked.

"Well, don't react," I told him, "but Kylian slept over."

His eyes widened, a grin emerged, and he said, "already on this stage??"

"Calm down, and no telling!" I said.

He made the little gesture of locking his lips and threw away the key. "But now you have to go to Nice with us."

"Why?" I asked.

"Today, Kylian was late but so happy," he explained, "after a game like we had yesterday, he wouldn't be this way. I like seeing him like this."

He spoke as we stared at him through the glass doors, and I smiled.

"I also like seeing you like this," he said.

I blushed, looked at the view and as an attempt to change the subject, I said, "it's a gorgeous day today."

He laughed and said, "Yeah."

"GUYS!" B yelled from inside, "come here."

We both went inside and waited for what she had to say.

"He said yes!" She said, but before we could get excited, she said, "but I'm one condition. You need to get someone to cover for you."

"I mean, there's Charles, but I couldn't possibly..."

"Have you not realized that we can make anyone change their minds?" B interrupted me to say.

"Good luck with that one," I said, "we'll talk to him tomorrow."

"Deal," B responded.

"Nice, here we come!" Bruna yelled.
