After an injury, Pedri González is left with frustration and pain, willing to sacrifice everything to play. When his then-girlfriend, Julia Soler, tried to talk him out of playing, he broke things off...
Things from there take a terrible turn for th...
Julia had never been a big sharer. She kept to herself and resolved her issues on her own. She always found it hard to trust people. She had been so strong all along, but now she seemed unable to handle it. Her thoughts kept going back to the kiss. She was exhausted. She didn't even know what to tell Pedri. She couldn't tell him why she had left him abruptly. This made Pedri worried because he thought he had done something wrong. 'God, what must he be thinking about me' Julia groaned and hid her face in her hands.
She began packing for a concert with her best friend, Sira. Tomorrow, Julia would perform at Camp Nou among a list of other incredible artists, including Quevedo and Justin Bieber. They woke early the following day and headed to the stadium for rehearsals. There were numerous paparazzi and fans, so they had to enter through the back. When Julia entered the stadium, she noticed the enormous stage. She was too busy daydreaming that she failed to hear Sira talking to her.
Additionally, they spotted the Barca team practising. She turned slightly and saw his eyes, and her heart was practically beating out of her chest. Julia then received hugs from Gavi and Ansu as they raced to them.
"What are you doing here, Ju?" Pablo asked, surprised.
"I'm performing at the concert," Julia said, giggling.
"Wow! I didn't know that. Are you nervous about performing in front of that many people?" Ansu asked.
"I am. It's definitely nerve-wracking. I just hope I don't screw it up. It is a major opportunity." She sighed. Pedri kept staring at her, and his eyes never left her. She had noticed he was looking at her and met his eyes several times. After some time, the stage manager arrived and went over the basic schedule of the show.
"We should be able to start rehearsals soon," the manager said, smiling and handing her a microphone. She waited patiently backstage until it was her turn to rehearse. She played through the first song several times until it sounded perfect. As the song ended, Julia heard a few claps. When she looked down, she saw Gavi and the rest of the team applauding her. She smiled and bowed jokingly. They left, and she jammed and sang the lyrics to the remaining songs. For the rest of the day, Julia ignored Pedri. She had just finished her final practice when she was suddenly pulled into a corner while leaving the arena wearing her stage outfit. She punched whoever pulled her in without looking at his face. When he groaned in pain, she recognised who it was, Pedri.
"Pedri?" Julia asked.
"Yes," he said, standing straight and approaching her. And he then trapped her against the wall.
"Julia, why are you ignoring me?" He asked.
"M-me ignoring you? No. Of course not." She said dishonestly, avoiding his gaze. He gave a suspicious look.
"Really? Well, it certainly doesn't look that way?" She remained silent. He looked her up and down, drooling over her, and she knew it. She tried to get out of his tight hold but failed.
"Are you going to pretend like last night didn't happen?" He inquired while she looked at the ground.
"I forgive, but I don't forget, González." Pedri knew precisely what she was hinting at (the video) and backed away a little, allowing her to escape his hold.
📍CONCERT AT CAMP NOU
The piano played, and there was a moment of silence. The lights came on, and Julia sat there on the piano. When Julia started singing beautifully 'In The Kitchen' (Reneé Rapp), everyone had stopped what they were doing. Fans took out their phone one by one, waving their flashlight around.
The crowd screamed and sang along a bit later. This continued throughout the show. Every song she sang got sung back to her. The crowd was wilder and louder than she had ever experienced before, and it showed how much she missed being on stage.
"Wow. She's amazing," Ferran said, standing next to Pedri and Ansu backstage as they listened to Julia.
"Yeah," Pedri said quietly.
"I really can't believe you broke up with her, man. She is great." Ansu said.
"Créeme. I immediately regretted doing it but she had already left." Pedri sighed.
The song ended, and everyone screamed and yelled louder than before.
"BARCELONA YOU WERE INCREDIBLE!!! BYE!!!" Julia smiled weakly as the light dimmed and ran off the stage. Adrenaline ran through her, and she jumped up and down and hugged Sira.
"Well done! You were amazing." Ansu, Ferran and Pablo said in unison. She was debating whether or not to make eye contact with Pedri, and she lifted her eyes to meet his and regretted it instantly. Those eyes of his were so mesmerising. Plus, that smile. He had a massive smile on, and that just made her smile. Her feelings were confusing - not only to him but also to her.
