JUST FRIENDS... // Pablo Gavi

first date

Felina

„Puhhh, it's a long story, or.. many long stories."
"Doesn't matter we have time, don't we", he asked excited to hear about my story.
"Okayyyy, well my dad is from spain and was born here in Barcelona but my mom is german, so I'm half spanish- half german and I was also born in Germany. We lived in Germany until my Spanish grandfather, the father of my father, unfortunately died. My grandma couldn't live alone and we had to take care of her so we moved near to her. I was 13 years old and just finished primary school as we moved. We moved to Coneña a small town next to Madrid and I really loved my life back then. Everything was perfect... but-.. I mean- ehm... there was this one day-... well everything changed that day...!"
I made a quick break but than continued talking: "Well a few months ago I wanted to hang out with my boyfriend so I went over to his house to surprise him. I had a spare key so I didn't bell but went in the house directly. I searched for him in the whole house as I knew he was at home because his car stood in front of the garage. I went to his bedroom and- well I found him with my best friend on the bed, great huh?! I didn't understand anything and just asked him why he did this but then he-... he knocked me down and I felt unconscious to the ground. I just know I woke up in front of his house, I don't really know how I came there I guess he or my best friend carried me out of the house. My arm was hurting like hell and I immediately started crying. I called my bigger brother Lucas and he brought me to the hospital where they told me my arm was broken. They also said that I couldn't do any kind of sports for a minimum of three months. I didn't left our house in Coneña for a long time because I was too bewildered and even kinda got depressed. Because my father didn't had a real job back in Coneña either, he was thinking about moving away anyways and now as I didn't left the house because I was worried that I'll meet my ex again, we planned to move away. My dad was born in Barcelona so the first city that popped up in his mind was Barcelona. The relocation in general was more complex than we thought because like I said Coneña is next to Madrid, and Madrid and Barcelona aren't that near to each other. My grandmother lives somewhere between Barcelona and Madrid so for her it doesn't really matter if we live in Coneña or Barcelona. To move here is a dream which comes true for me and my whole family. And yes, so basically that's it."

Pablo listened to me carefully and when I finished he answered: "I'm so sorry, that's horrible... I mean just the fact that he cheated on you is terrible but then as well with your best friend... puhh that's a lot... I'm so sorry, I hope you are okay, you deserve so much better."
"Thanks Pablo. Now as we moved to Barcelona I'm already much better but the last weeks in Coneña were probably the worst of my life. But everything is slowly getting better and everyday I'm a bit happier than the day before", I said.
Pablo responded: "Glad to hear that! Are you in therapy?"
"Not quite yet, I mean I have my bestie, she's my therapist!", I winked laughing.
"Felina, you need to go to therapy, I'm being serious! Something like that can be really traumatic, it's so important to talk with someone professional about that! And I really hope you mean an other bestie than the one who cheated on you?!", he said.
"Yeah, of course! I meant my online best friend Mali, she's from my school. I don't have any contact to my ex boyfriend and ex best friend anymore. And I'm already on a waiting list from a therapist, don't worry haha." I replied.
"Online best friend from your school?", he asked confused.
"Oh yeah, I am on an international online school. All our classes are online and on english. On this school are people from different countries all over the world. We have to speak English during class, but when we don't have any video conferences for school Mali and I speak german because she's from Germany too. Now as I'm in Spain and she's in Germany we don't meet up often but whenever we have the opportunity to meet each other in reality we use it and then we always have the greatest time together. And now we are best friends since the 7th grade and that's quite a while now", I said laughing.

Pablo and I continued talking for a while and I have to admit it was a very pleasant conversation.

Then we went back to his car because Pablo had planned another surprise. We drove back into Barcelona and Pablo finally stopped in front of a small but sweet restaurant. We went out of the car and walked into the restaurant. A waiter asked us for our reservation and the name and Pablo answered with: "We have a reservation for 7pm on the name Pablo Paéz Gavira."
Already 7 pm?! How the time flies when I'm around him...

The waiter led us to a small table a little further away from the others. On the table was a vase with one single red rose in it.
Pablo pulled the chair out for me like a real gentleman.

We ordered our food and talked very much.
Not much time passed as the waiter brought us our food. The food was delicious and Pablo and I had much fun together. I felt pretty comfortable around him and we laughed a lot. I was really enjoying the day with Pablo and he makes me so happy.
Even after we ate all of the food we stayed at the restaurant and continued talking.
We stayed for so long that I had to go to the toilet. I went into the restrooms and used the toilet. As I went out to wash my hands and fix my hair and makeup I heard one girl entering the restrooms...
