Not my Goal: Lucas Paquetá

5: Footballer Cousin

I ran to the bathroom and did my hair and makeup. I was breathing very fast.

Damn.

I should've left, but he was way too good I couldn't resist. But Justice Tanner?

Ugh.

I decided to call Jolie and both girls freaked out when they joined me to the bathroom. Of course I didn't tell them what happened between me and Justice. I don't know Dakota well and Jolie is my friend but I'll tell her some time later. Maybe in thousand years.

"This party's whack." Dakota let out.

"I'm glad." I answered. "So let's go back home? Dakota, I drop you off right?"

She shook her head. "Don't have to, my primo is coming. I'd like you guys to meet him. He's a football player."

Hmmm okay!

Jolie and I both gave each other a look. A football player she said? Well I'm glad I look good!

As we were leaving this place, we bumped into Justice and other guys. One of them approached us alongside Justice.

"Hi, Bryan! We're about to leave." Dakota informed him.

"For real? The night's still young!" He whined.

Dakota chuckled: "We have to work tomorrow."

By that, we continued our way. I didn't even dare to look anywhere else but the floor. Once we reached outside, a big black jeep was waiting in front of us. Someone stepped out of the car. At first I didn't recognise him, but then.

"Oh goodness." I let out as I watched him approaching us.

IT'S LUCAS PAQUETÁ! Waaaaaaaaah the heck?! Is he Dakota's footballer's cousin? I was left SPEECHLESS and Jolie too by the way.

"Primo!" Dakota went to hug him. He hugged her right back.

"Como vai, minha querida?" He asked, which I'm assuming means 'How are you?'

"I'm good, what about you primo?" She questioned right back.

He shrugged. "I'm alright."

"Primo, I'd like you to meet Jolie and Alexis, my colleagues. They were so sweet to accompany me to my friend's gathering."

"Gathering? More like a party. AND on your first day of work? You didn't get drunk, did you?" He then looked at Jolie and I. "I'm sorry you girls had to go through this because of her."

She hit his arm. "This 'party' was whack anyway! And noooo I just wanted to decompress, am I not allowed? Am I supposed to stay tense to make a point?"

Lucas rolled his eyes before concentrating on Jolie and I. "It's like I know you from somewhere."

"Aaaaah he recognises me! Omg- uhhh I mean... I, uhhh. I interviewed you after the champions league and I also celebrated your goal with you." I answered, wanting to hit myself.

Miss Dakota thought it was funny. "Ew, so my primo REALLY impressess the ladies huh?"

"Shut up!" He joked. "Oh, I thought so. Haha, what a coincidence."

Well I don't believe in coincidence.

Seriously we were just having a conversation with Lucas Paquetá? Should I take a picture with him? Nah-ah, helloooo I'm not supposed to be impressed by him. I should be nonchalant and not like other girls in order to have his attention.

Who am I kidding.

Lol. It's not like I'm going to date him, might as well take a picture. But Jolie was ealier than me. I thought she didn't give a crap about them? I joined too and went for a few selfies.
