Judge My Skills, Not Me

Chapter 9: Google "How to get the Girl??"

A/N Guess who's back

"You already have the locker room chasing after you" Scott scoffed as he drove back to the house. 

"What can I say, I have amazing people skills," Cristina said as she tossed her hair back dramatically. 

"Well don't be too keen to befriend them. They're soccer players after all." Scott warned ask he pulled into the driveway. 

"You forget Scotty, my friend," Cristina said as she got out of the car, "I'm one of them too."

"Texting her right now is too early, right?" Leo asked Luis and Neymar as they headed to the garage. Leo didn't want to look desperate, but well he was. 

"I don't think so," Luis said barely looking up from his phone.

"Do not listen to a word this man is saying!" Neymar screaked as he took the phone from Leo's hands. "He has no sense of what flirting in the modern era means!" 

"I am married... with 2 kids" Luis interjected.

"Yeah, but when you started dating, humans were still figuring out how fire worked!" 

"Dude, rude."

"Yeah Ney, Luis isn't that old-" Leo chimed in.

"Thank you for defending me, Leo" Luis said content. 

"-We all know he just stole some of the lines Shakespeare decided were too corny even for Romeo and Juliet." Leo and Neymar laughed as they unlocked their cars. 

"I forget, you're just a striker that can't defend to save his life," Luis said as he pushed Leo into his car.

"All jokes aside, what should I text her." 

Neymar grinned, "Tell her you love her eyes, her hair, the way she parts her hair. Matter of fact, tell her you love all her part." Luis and Leo looked at him confused. "Am I the only one who's seen the best rom-com ever Flipped?" 

"Looks like it, dude" Leo chuckled. 

"Fine, here's my step-by-step guide to getting the girl, patent pending" Neymar exclaimed and Leo listened closer. "First, text her the day of the date, no prior contact. Just to get her interested. Then say 'Date?' that question mark is very important or else you just look like a dick." 

Luis rolled his eyes, "We wouldn't want that."

Neymar continued ignoring him, "When she inevitably answers 'of course Neymar. Wherever you please, Neymar. I love you already Neymar'"

"I think you're getting a bit carried away" Leo interrupted. 

"Oh... right. Anyway, when she responds tell her 'Just dress fancy and leave it all to me, baby ;)' and tada! You got yourself the girl." Neymar bowed for the nonexistent applauses. 

"Can I ask you a question Ney," Luis asked. 

"Anything, Luisy Boy" Neymar said triumphantly. 

"How long are the relationships you've used this 'brilliant plan' lasted?" 

"Approximately 1 month," Neymar said with a proud smile on his face. 

"Exactly," Luis shook his head, "Look, Leo. Just text her asking when she's free and make a plan to spend time talking and getting to know each other. No rush."

"Orrrrr, just trust your friend that has dated in the recent century" Neymar added. 

"You know what. I'll just ask Hulk for advice, at least he'll present to be helpful." Leo said getting into his car. 

"Take the advice of your dog, man. Just know he's got more game than you anyway." Neymar laughed as he closed his car door. 

"This is going to be a disaster," Luis said as he left.

A/N

Hey guys! Wow, there are a lot more people here since I last updated. 

First off, sorry for the long-awaited chapter. You know all those Wattpad/AO3  authors that are like "Sorry for no update. I had to get married and have 3 kids". That's not the case for me, but  I did graduate high school and am in college right now. So while I am planning to update now, I don't know how frequently it will be just yet (hopefully not another year.... sorry too soon?"

Second, I need ideas guys. I am a mere burnt-out college student that lost the glimmer of youthful writing around the first semester of senior year. I got a general layout of how I want the plot to go and where it should end but I still would love ideas. 

Lastly. I want to say "hi!" to all the new people here and "thank you" to all the people that have stuck around. I know most new people are here because of the elephant in the room (MESSI WON THE WORLD CUP!! WOOOOO) and I couldn't be more grateful! Hopefully, this story doesn't disappoint and brings you as much joy as it brings me writing it. 

Thanks again and leave comments because I love reading them and are honestly the reason I wanted to update so please keep me accountable! Anyways byeeeeee (not forever tho lol)
