Dinero-Pedri Gonzalez

New couple

*Pedri's pov*

We won.

And I scored the winning goal.

This day couldn't get any better.

Actually it can.

After all these years of waiting.

In silence and suffering.

I'm ready.

I won't come off as a coward this time.

I'm finally going to ask her to be my girlfriend.

I planned everything. I'll get to her. She will congratulate me. And then...then I'll tell her everything. I'll tell her how I feel. If she agrees to be my girlfriend I will be the happiest person in the stadium. If not, then I will remember this day forever. Not because of this victory. But because my heart was broken, buried on this field. Broken a second time by the same woman. I hope she agrees. Otherwise, I won't even be able to look her in the eyes. And that will be difficult, because we work together. But at least I will know that I am not late. If I took my chance. I hope for the best.

I have a good feeling. Maybe she feels the same about me as I do about her.

Everyone came and congratulated me. They hugged me and jumped on me. I was smiling. Not because of the victory, but because I saw her on the other side of the field.

I got out of the crowd and headed towards Sofia. I saw that she was standing next to Balde. They probably celebrated together. Sofia was smiling. Her smile was so beautiful. I think her smile could heal a sick person. At least me. Balde was also smiling. They must have been talking about his goal. It was a nice goal. Not quite like mine. But then again he wasn't bad.

On the way to Sofia, everyone stopped me and congratulated me. I was in a hurry. I couldn't wait to see her. To tell her everything I feel. To hug her. But maybe it will remain just a wish. Maybe she only sees me as a friend, and that's it. And maybe my wish will come true. We will see.

I met Mikky on the way.
"Hey, congratulations. You were great today." she greeted me.
"Thank you. How are you by the way. What's up?" I greeted her back.
"Thank you very much for the question. I came to support Frenkie, but I'm really glad that you were so good today. That goal was fantastic."
"What can I say? I'm perfect."
"You were really great today. And I think I know why." she smirked.
"I'm always excellent"
"Of course you are.Have you asked her yet?" she asked me.
"No, I'm on my way."
"Oh, then I won't bother you. Hurry up." she winked at me.
"I would like to share this moment with someone. But I don't see Pablo."
"I'd like to be there with you. But I think I'll step back, I don't want to rush into such an important moment."
"Do as you wish. And thank you again. For our conversation in the car."
"Every time."

I said goodbye to Mikky and returned to my mission.

I looked at Sofia and she was...hugging Balde?

I stopped for a moment. And then someone jumped me.

I knew immediately who it was.

Pablo.

"Hey man, congratulations. You were amazing today." he congratulated me. "Thanks dude, you weren't bad either.    " I answered. "Your girl must be proud." he joked.
"I haven't asked her yet."
"What? Not yet? Why not?"
"I didn't have a chance. Everyone jumps at me and congratulates me."
"Well let's go then." he hugged me around the neck and we started walking towards Sofia together. It's like asking her with a ring, so I need a best man.

Suddenly I saw that Balde was lifting her into the air. What is happening? Everyone clapped around them. I do not understand. I know I shouldn't be jealous. She's still not my girlfriend. I still didn't ask her to do that. But again my heart stopped for a moment.

"What's going on there?" I asked Gavi in ​​a shaky voice. I was shaking all over. My legs wanted to feel.
"I have no idea." he answered me.     "Are we going there?" I asked.               "Of course, let's go find out together." he replied.

We got ahead of them.
"Hey guys, what's going on?" I asked.

I didn't want to get an answer.

I was afraid of the answer.

That answer could change my life.

I wasn't ready for that answer.

"We celebrate Balde's goal. Congratulations too Pedri by the way." Maria answered.

The stone fell from my heart.

I smiled.
"Congratulations Alejandro." I congratulated him

"Thank you very much Pedri. I congratulate you too. The goal was perfect." he also congratulated me.

I was worried for no reason. It was that moment after all. I started to say it. I started to ask her to be my girlfriend.

But Balde interrupted me. "I asked her to be my girlfriend."

"And I said yes." Sofia finished.

"What?" I asked.

I thought I didn't hear right.

I hoped I hadn't heard correctly.
"That's another reason we're celebrating." Balde explained.

My legs turned to stone.

My smile fell.

I even felt a tear run down my cheek.

What just happened?

What did I just hear?

This is not possible.

"Congratulations, congratulations to you both. And I wish you the best." I swallowed the lump in my throat and spoke.
"Thank you!" they answered at the same time. Then I noticed that they were holding hands.

"I forgot something in the locker room. I'm going to get it." I excused myself for having to go and literally ran to the dressing room.

I do not feel well.

I don't even know how I feel.

Looks like we have a 'new couple' on the field.
