to love is to take a risk (sequel to risky behavior)

Chapter 12

Mercedes P.O.V

"Ugh" I spat pushing Kylian off my lips.

"Don't fucking come near me." I said before ushering a cab my way and getting in.

He tried to stop the door with his hand but I quickly shut it so it was out of his reach.

"Camp Nou please" I told the taxi cab driver.

I wanted to get as far away from Kylian as possible.

I don't know who he thought he was trying to kiss me.

He always did that and expected me to give in.

Well not this time.

I headed back to the stadium in hopes of finding Pedri and figuring what had happened earlier when he left.

He made me feel good about myself. Something I hadn't felt in awhile because of Ky. I had high hopes for my relationship with Pedri.

But first I wanted to talk with him and make sure everything regarding his work was okay.

"We're here ma'am" said the driver.

I thanked him and handed him his money before walking off and inside the entrance of the huge stadium.

I texted Pedri to see where he was at since it was after hours and no one was around besides office workers.

Me: hey im at camp nou. i came to see you :)

Pedri: hey. im in xavi's office but i'm just finishing up some paperwork. meet me at the top of the stadium in 5.

Me: ok omw

I headed up to the seats all the way at the top of the stadium. It was true that Camp Nou was one of the most beautiful stadiums but in the nighttime it looked even better.

Eventually Pedri came and joined me on the top of the stairs.

"Hey Mercedes how was dinner?" he asked sitting down on the seat next to me.

"I didn't stay. I ended up leaving" I said looking out onto the field.

"I'm so sorry Mercedes. If I had known I would have rescheduled" he said apologetically.

"No it's okay. I understand." I said giving him a reassuring smile.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"What do you mean Pedri?" I asked confused.

"You seem..I don't know..off." he said.

"Yeah."

"I guess I am" I muttered.

"What's wrong baby?" he asked scooting in closer to tuck the loose strand of hair behind my ear before giving me a kiss on the cheek.

"It's KyKy" I said letting the tears flow down my cheek.

"H-he m-makes me feel l-like shit" I said sobbing.

"Why do you even let his words get to you" he asked with a confused expression painted over his face.

"BECAUSE I DO PEDRI. I-I love him" I yelled while tears fell down from my eyes.

He looked at me for a few seconds before speaking again.

"Okay then."

"If that's how it is. I'll leave you be" he said getting up and leaving.

"Wait" I said , my voice below a whisper.

"Forget it" I said to myself shaking my head.

I pulled out my phone and dialed the phone.

"Hello?" said the voice on the phone.
