I'm like really hyper right now. Idek why.

Cristiano POV

I walked onto the field for practice and hour early. Only to see I'd been beaten there. Alex stood on the line of the box with a ball at her feet. She began to juggle it till she could strike it hard into the net.

I heard her sigh as she went to go get it, she saw me as she walked back. She gave a wave and a smile.

I returned the gesture and set my bag down and walked over to her. "You get here early too?"

She nodded "I like to arrive early."

I swiped the ball from her and began to juggle it. I hit it over to her and she continued on with it. We began to have a catch of juggling.

"You okay?" I asked her

She looked at me confused before returning her focus to the ball and tossing it back to me "Am I okay? Are you okay?"

"Yes are you okay. They roughed you up a bit yesterday." I said holding the ball on my ankle and then tossing it up and moving me leg around it in a circle and catching it again.

"Oh.. yeah I'm fine completely fine- how did you do that? That circle thing."

I showed her again "Yeah that. And how about you? You okay?"

I started from the beginning and slowly showed her. "I'm fine. Completely fine." She smiled up at me. Damn she's tiny.

I never realized it before but she was. "Will you teach me how to do that?" She asked

"Sure, but it will come with a price." I said teasing her

She nudged my shoulder "Price eh? You should be paying me. See you should be lucky to have some on like me asking you to teach them."

"Is that so?" I questioned

She nodded "It is."

"Fine. We will discuss payment after I teach you."

I jogged over and grabbed another ball "Okay so this is all about balance and speed."

In a half an hour she was getting it perfectly. "Yeah! There you go. That's it!" I encouraged her.

She smiled "That's fun! Thank you. That's really cool."

"My pleasure. You catch on quick," I commented "Now, for payment." I smiled

She sighed "Yes, let me think of what you owe me."

"Or I can tell you what I can offer."

She thought about this "Meh okay, go for it."

"Well, I could probably get you a dinner with a really good looking funny, nice, cool, and did I mention ridiculously hot guy?"

She cocked her head to the side "You can get me a dinner with David Beckham? I mean he's married so..."

Wow. That hurt.

But I laughed anyway "Funny. You're real funny."

She laughed, it was a true musical sound. "Hmm um ooo I know okay is it Zac Efron?"

"I don't even know who that is." I said Who the hell is he?

"What?! Oh we are totally watching High School Musical." She said with finality

"Don't know what that is either. But that's my payment. Take it or leave it."

Take it.

"I guess I'll take it. But I'll have to know the name of the guy first." She said grinning

I playfully pushed her shoulder "It's me you dingus."

Her grin grew "Dingus? That's such an American insult."

"Tomorrow at seven?" I asked

"Tomorrow at seven." She nodded

Alex POV

I literally have no clothes. I am clothless. My room looked like a tornado swept through it.

I have no idea what to wear. Someone kill me now.

I decided to call Julisa "Hey I need help with an outfit. It's for a dinner, he said casual. And I have nothing to wear. Abd I need a girl right now."

"Oh Alex! A date?! With who? Ugh I'm sorry. I can't come over right now. I have back to back meetings. I'm so sorry."

Again, brick will be fine, just kill me.

"Ugh that's okay.. I'll call Marcelo I guess. It's not a date. And I'm just going with this guy I met. He's really nice."

"What's his name?"

"Um uh, Jimmy..." I said

He said he wanted to keep it unnoticed until his whole breakup news blew over. He didn't want anyone to think he'd jumped into anything.

"Huh. Okay well I got to go. Send me a picture when you find something!"

Then she hung up.

I dialed Marcelo "Ello?" He answered

"Hey Marcelo. I need your help."

"Sure what's up?"

"Do you think you could come over?"

"Uhhh sure?"

"You're going on a date? With who?" He asked

"I think it's a date, but I don't know. Just a guy I met, he's really nice."

"Huh.. okay well casual? Let's see.." he looked at all the clothes on my bed

He picked up a dark baby blue layered tank top and jeans. "It's going to get chilly out tonight. So jeans, and then.."

He picked up heeled sandals and a gold statement necklace.

"Wow. That looks really good. Thanks Marc." I said going into the bathroom to change.

"So... this guy. Do you like him?" He asked.

"Yeah, I think so I don't know him thst well yet... I mean I don't even know if this is a date as I said."

"What's his name?"

"Jimmy.." I said walking out

"Has anyone ever told you that you're a terrible liar?"

"Yes.."

"So who is it really?"

"Okay fine. But you have to swear you won't tell anybody. Okay? Anyone! Because as of right now we are friends okay? Friends."

He nodded "I swear."

I took a deep breath "Cristiano."

His eyes widened and then he smiled from ear to ear.

"Finally."

"What?"

"He finally asked you? Good. He's been gone since he met you. I knew it was bound to happen. How'd he do it?"

I explained to him what happened. "But this isn't a date okay? We are just friends."

He nodded with a small smile.

"Perfectly understood."
