Mi Chica Dorada

Ch. 5

I've been in Qatar for two days and it's been kind of boring as I'm still waiting for my parents to arrive and Ester. I've been hanging out with SIra a lot though when she isn't with her family. Sira was the first person to know about Pedri, even before Ester. I needed to tell someone because I had never been with a football player so I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into and who better than to ask Sira. She was so supportive and there for me when things with Pedri were nearing the end. I haven't spoken to Pedri in the two days I've been here. I try not to think about him too much but it's hard when I'm all alone. I was on my way to the courtyard in the hotel to read my book and just enjoy nature since my brother was at practice and Sira was with her family. I was enjoying my book until I felt someone sit next to me.

"What are you reading?" I look up from my book only for my eyes to meet Pedri's.

"It's called People We Meet on Vacation."

"What's it about?"

"These ex flings who meet again on vacation."

"Sounds familiar." he says as he looks at the sky.

"Remind you of someone?" I whispered as I wasn't sure if I wanted an answer.

"Just a guy I know."
"What about this guy you know?

"He had a fling with a beautiful girl, she was a huge Barca fan and not to mention her brother plays for them and is this dude's best friend."

"And why did this guy let this beautiful girl go?" I asked as I turned my body to him.

"I think he was scared of disappointing her."

"Well he should stop being scared, it holds him back from a lot."

"Do you know the beautiful girl?"

"Yeah, very well."

"Does she hate him for it?" he asks as he turns his body to me.

"No." I whisper, it's been so long since I've been around that I get nervous.

"Do you still like to watch the sunrise on vacation?" Pedri asked.

"How did you remember I like doing that?" Every family vacation since I was little, we always watched one of the sunrises on any vacations we went on. When Pedri and I started talking we took a weekend getaway to The Canary Islands and watched the sunrises together. He has seen it countless times but it was my first time. I remember it like it was yesterday.

It was May 30, Day of The Canary Islands. Pedri had planned for us to go to the parades and watch some Canary Island wrestling as well as have some tapas. Before this he told me he had a surprise for me.

"I have planned for us to watch the sunrise and have some breakfast on the water." he said as he laid the blanket down on the sand.

"Pedri, this is so cute." I say as I give him a hug.

"Your first Canary Island sunrise, I had to make it special."

"My first Canary Island sunrise con mi Canario favorito." I say as I peck his lips.

"I'm so glad I slid into your dm's." he says as we cuddle in the sand.

"I'm glad I didn't listen to my brother and responded." Ferran never wanted to me to date any footballers.

"I'll be the only footballer, he has nothing to worry about."

"You're so lucky to have grown up on the water. I wouldn't mind waking up to this everyday."

"You mean waking up next to me everyday? I know it's quite the view."

"Eres muy tonto Pedro, aside from that."

"Mira va salir el sol."

"Mmm buenos días." I say as I cuddle into him.

"Buenos días amor." he says as he pecks my lips.
