Where Your Heart Truly Lies -Pedri Gonzalez and Pablo Gavi

Chapter 11

Elenas Pov
"I have to go, Pedriiii." I laugh, trying to get out of his grib. "Nooooooo please don't leave me."
He pouts, and I lean down and kiss him. " I have to.....He is waiting....." I whisper, and he sighs."I hate sharing you...." He said and kissed me again. "I'll call you when he's sleeping." I peck his lips one more time, and I go to open the door.
"Elena, what are you doing here??"
Ferran says, and I look at Pedri begging him to get me out of this. "She was collecting these for Gavi." He said, handing me a pair of boots. I take them and nod "yeah he needs them. For tomorrow!" I tell Ferran, and he nods."Why couldn't Gavi just get them himself?" He asks, walking in, and Eric follows him. "He was busy, and it was just easier for him to come get them on her way to his house?" Pedri said and walked away into the living room. Ferran just nods and follows him. "Hiii buddy!!" I smile, hugging Eric, and he smiles and hugs me back. " I thought you two hate each other." He smirks, and I laugh."we do! We didn't even talk. I just came to get them, and I'm leaving straight away." I tell him "hmm suree" He smirks and walks into the room. I sigh, and I leave the shoes over in the corner. And then I run out of the door. I start walking to Gavis.
My phone pings, and I look at it.

Pedri
Close call! We gotta be
More careful, Princess

Elena
Well, if you just let me leave
The first time
They wouldn't have caught
Us Mr!

Pedri
It's not my fault you're too
Irresistible!! Miss you already
Baby....

Elena
I miss you too. Make sure you
Act like you still hate me to the boys.
Eric is getting suspicious.

Pedri
Okay, I'll tell them how
Much I hate you
Even though it's the opposite 😉

Elena
Shhhh ❤️ I gotta go. I'll talk to you later.

Pedri
Byeee Don’t have too much fun!

I giggle and put my phone away. I walk up to Gavis's door, and I knock. He opens it and pulls me inside, and kisses me. I kiss him back. "I missed you so much!" He tells me, and I smile."I missed you too!" I hug him, and he closes the door. I walk over to the couch and sit down. "So what's the plan?" I ask, and he sits beside me, putting his arm behind me on the couch. "Thinking we could just watch some movies and order a takeaway?" He said, and I nod "what about your diet?" I giggle and he smiles "fuck it for one night." He smiles and he kisses me.
I kiss him back, and I pull him closer by the back of the neck. He pulls me onto his lap by grabbing my legs and pulling them over. I deepen the kiss and start to pull at his hair. "I love you, Elena...."He says against my lips, and I pull away and look at him."What?....."
He looks me in the eyes. "I've fallen in love with you....I love you, Elena Torres...." He said, and I looked away. Guilt completely washed over me. This changes everything. He loves me.....
"Elena, you don't have to say it back if you're not ready....I just wanted to tell you." I look at him, and I nod."Thank you for understanding....I'm just not ready yet..." I tell him, and he nods. "It's okay." He smiles and kisses me again. I kiss him back. But all I can think about is what I'm doing to him. This boy loves me, and I'm also seeing his best friend behind his back.....
I pull away and cuddle into him. He turns on the movie, and I try to get my mind off everything.
He strokes my hair, and I smile up at him. He pecks my lips, and I giggle. "What would you like to eat, Mi amor?" He asks, and I shrug."I don't mind. Maybe pizza?"
He nods. "Great choice. I'll go order." He kisses my cheek and gets up to get his phone.
I grab my phone as soon as he leaves.

Elena
Everything has changed....

Pedri
What do you mean?
Elena???
Hello??

He rings me. I get up and walk out of the garden. "Elena, what's wrong??" He asks, and I start to cry. "He told me.....he said he loves me. " I cry, and I hear Pedri let out a sharp exhale. "This changes everything, Elena...."I'm sorry, Pedri....but we can't do this. Not when he loves me. I can't do that to him...." I just hang up before he answers, and I wipe my tears, and I go back inside. Thankfully, Pablo hasn't come yet. I sit back on the couch. I pull the blanket up to me. My phone goes off

Pedri
Elena, please don't do this....
I can't live without you...
Please just think about it again....
Elena, please.

I just switch off my phone, and a tear falls down my cheek. I wipe it quickly, and Pablo comes back. "Okay, pizza is ordered!" He said, and I smile."Great!" He sits down again, and I cuddle into him. He presses play on the movie again.
I silently cry into his chest. So he doesn't know I am.

I didn't want to end things with Pedri. But it's not right to do this to Pablo when he has such strong feelings for me. But the hard part is.....I'm falling in love with his best friend. I know it's early, but I think I have always felt this way but I guess I just pushed it aside because I'm with Pablo, and I do like him, but not as much I like Pedri. Me acting like I hated him was me really hiding my feelings.....
