"You know you got everyone's eyes on you, including mine" Cris said into her ear as he kept a firm grip on her hip and pulled her closer.

"Excellent, do you think everyone could see how good my ass looks in this dress?"

She knew exactly where to hit him...his ego. He was a jealous man that much she had learned from their break up so she was going to use this to her advantage. After all she was still mad with him and wasn't going to let these ideas slide over his head that it would be easy to get her back just so he could do the same later on. In dancing with him she also made eye contact with a confused Neymar but she nodded her head for him to go to the bar and she mouthed the words "it's fine" before he got all defensive.

"Baby everyone could tell when you stepped through the door, but that's expected as long as they know they can look but can't touch" he glared at as many men as he could who were staring her up and down.

"And who can touch, you?!" the words were to mock him so imagine her surprise when he gripped her ass.

"Yes" he slapped it playfully before releasing his touch and pulling her closer.

"Why do you deny this connection between us any longer? Why put us through more agony when you know you love me as much as I love you" Cris could feel it in the air the way she wanted to stay with him longer and not only that, but her eyes always lingered when they shouldn't if she claimed to be as angry as she was.

"You know why Cris. You hurt me after practically ghosting me for a week after spontaneously breaking up with me without a second thought. I mean one hardship in our relationship and you jump ship without even considering how this would affect me. What happens if I forgive you so easily and then you do this again huh?" there was now this fear installed her that he would just walk away from her when ever he wanted to.

"Catalina let's talk about this for real and no right here cause I can't hear you" he dragged her hand without warning to a private room he saw when walking in.

"Cris" she whined as he pushed her around without even asking and without a thought his nickname slipped through.

"Hey man can I use this room real quick" Cris asked the man guarding the door.

"Sorry man this room is off limits to everyone, only reserved for the boss man" the random guard said.

"I just need it for a minute" he pleaded urgently finally getting his opportunity to get his girl back and he want going to let it slip, especially as Catalina tugged on his arm for them just to turn around and go back.

"Listen man don't make me tell you twice" Lina felt for the man after all he was just trying to do his job.

"How about this. I give you this and you let us talk in there for 10 minutes max and then you can kick us out the room" Lina eyes widened as Cris pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet which had to hold at least a few hundreds of dollars.

"10 minutes. Nothing more, nothing less" the man shoved the cash in his pocket and then opened the door quickly where they followed.

"Why do you carry that much cash with you" Liam asked as the door shut.

"In case of emergency and in this case it was an emergency" he smiled at her trying to ease the tension.

"Okay you got the room now what did you want to talk about cause I'm definitely not hooking up and it's you at a bar" if that was his intentions she would smack him up the head where he stands.

"So if we weren't in a bar you would" he played off as his nerves were getting the best of him.

"Cris" scolding him like a parent would a child she glared at him to speak his truth.

"Fine. I think you and I should get back together—for real, not any of that fake stuff and I'm not saying this because I'm jealous of that Carlson guy but because I love you. I know deep down in that beautiful heart of yours that you feel the same and I will never, ever take that for granted again. So I'm begging you, take me back and I promise you I'll never hurt you again" when he said he would beg he wasn't lying as he got on his knees in front of her and gripped her hands.

"Cris first of all his name is Carlos and second you can't just expect me to take you back that easily" god did it hurt to love this man after everything. She felt it would be foolish of her to take him back so soon, but her heart was telling her she would be stupid to give up their love like that.

"I'm not saying it would be easy if we get back together. I know it's going to take some time to gain your trust again but I promise to be in it 100% if your willing to" he could see her armored walls slipping from her as he speaks.

"If we do this you have to trust me more and I know what my brothers did weren't exactly fair to you, but I promise to speak with them about it and IF this is going to work I need you to trust me more" she could practically already hear the scolding she was going to receive from Leo.

"So that's a yes" he jumped up from his spot eagerly.

"It's a work in process" she answered with a small smile.

Unable to help himself he urgently connected there lips in a heated kiss. He pulled away after awhile of not sensing her kissing back and in doing so he stopped to admire the beauty before him.

"I'm sorry I promised we would take this slow. That was dishonest of me" he stated trying to catch his breath.

"Don't be" and with that she pulled him in for another kiss which was getting too heated as he pushed her against the wall. They were enjoying this quick make out session until a knock interrupted them.

"Times up" came the guards voice.

"Let's go" Cris kept a solid grasp on her wrist, not allowing her to make a run for it if she chose to.

"Listen about what happened earlier, that's not going to happen again for awhile" she said honestly as the kiss was in the heat of the moment.

"Got it" as long as she stayed by his side he would allow anything to go.

The reality of all this didn't hit until she made eye contact with Neymar who was urgently awaiting her return and imagine his shock when he seen Cristiano's arm linked with her's. How in the hell was he going to explain this to Leo and the boys, that on his watch the couple reconnected. It also didn't help that he could sense some sadness from Carlos who sat next to him, but in honesty what did the men expect from Catalina. She just got out of a relationship and clearly told him that they were just friends. Still he felt bad for the guy.

"Hey I think I'm going to head home" which realistically was just Neymar's home in Brazil where she currently resided in the guest room.

"Are you sure you don't want to stay longer" Carlos asked not completely sure if he felt okay with her going home with her ex.

"Yeah it's been a really long day, but I promise you tomorrow it'll be us three and the beaches" they had one more day left after today before they had to fly home and she promised a fun day between the trio.

"Alright will talk when I get home. I'm going to stay a bit longer" Neymar wanted to know the truth but he also wasn't going to ambush her when she was still confused herself on what just occurred.

"Okay and see you tomorrow Carlos" she kissed him on the cheek goodbye and instantly felt Cristiano's hold on her hand tighten.

She left the club with several eyes on her but all that mattered to Cris is that he was the one she was going home with.
