brothers best friend - pedri gonzález

chapter 20: "you're going to be ok"

" y/n?"

"hmmm" i was still in a daze, i didn't know what time it was, and frankly, i didn't care.

" time to wake up" his familiar warm hand rested on the side of my face, his thumb drawing circles,

" why?" i whinned, i'm always the one to get up so now it was my turn to sleep, " please, come cuddle with me"

" ugh fine, your to cute i can't say no" he slipped in bed next to me, his warm chest pressed against my back, his hands finding their way around my stomach.

" this is nice," he rested his head on top of my shoulder.

" i know," i place my hands on top of his, the heat of his body warming me up. " i'm going back to bed"

" ok, sleep well beautiful"

" thanks p"

" practice is going to suck today" it was 2 hours later, in the cool air conditioned bus, heading to practice. i decided to tag along because i didn't know what else to do.

" why?"

" because we tied yesterday remember?"

" well yeah but i don't think he'll be that mad"

" ehhh i wouldn't count on it"

the bus slowed down to a stop in front of the fields, everyone hopped off one by one, me being the last. my phone started ringing, it was a call from my brother.

" you coming?" pedri yelled back to me.

" yeah you go i'll be right there" i picked up my phone.

" hey y/b/n what's up?"

" y/n, i don't know how to say this. but um, grandma, she um, she's gone y/n" my heart fell a hundred feet, my ears were ringing and my eyes stung. my vision went black and i couldn't see anything. i stumbled into the bathroom, clutching onto the sink to hold me up. my grandma was my best friend. i only got to see her a couple times in my life since she lived in the netherlands with my grandpa but i always made do with what i had. she'd try her best to talk to me in english even though she barely knew it. i tried to help her out by speaking the small amount of dutch i know. she texted me everyday and called me almost just as much.

"y/n? y/n are you there?"

" yeah. how did she die?" my voice breaking into a thousand pieces.

" in her sleep"

" oh thank god"

" me, mom and dad will come to see you tonight ok?"

" ok. love you"

" i love you too. i'm sorry" once i heard the beep of my phone i just broke into tears. i didn't know how i would tell pedri but i would figure that out. i took a deep breath and picked myself up. i splashed cold water in my face and tried to clean up my mascara. i took a couple shaky breaths and walked out the door. i went straight up to my spot in the bleachers and stayed there the rest of the practice.

everyone walked back to the bus. pedri was complaining to me about how much practice sucked which was valid. luis worked their asses off today. i just stayed quiet and let him rant. i sat down in my seat, pedri sitting next to me. he turned to face me,
