AUGUST - pablo gavi

three // red card

✩

THIRD PERSON POV;

isabella has been a barça girl since the moment she was born. barça was the only team in the world for her.

she'd spend her weekends at one of her dad's games, or playing football with the barcelona academy. she throughly enjoyed the lifestyle of being a footballer.

so it's no surprise that when isabella hernández got a call-up to play for the barça first team, she took the offer in seconds.

the feeling of wearing 'isa 6' at the back of her jersey made her get butterflies. isa didn't wear 'hernández' at the back of her shirt. neither did her dad. her dad wore 'xavi 6' at the back of his shirt. and isa wanted to be just like her father.

and there she was right now, playing in the johan cryuff stadium in front of a crowd of barça fans.

isa couldn't ask for anything better.

from afar, gavi's sat in the stadium with xavi. gavi didn't really know why he went with xavi. all he knew was that xavi had two tickets to go see isa's game, and gavi got dragged into going.

he'd seen isa play once or twice with ale and pedri. he thought she was really good. and that xavi definitely taught her a bunch of skills. and barça femeni are now playing tenerife.

isa and gavi had been getting to know eachother better a lot more for the past few weeks. and the thing gavi had heard most was how excited isa was for this game. and how much she wanted for everything to go perfect.

as the balls at her feet, isabella now finds herself at a 1v1 with the tenerife goalkeeper.

should she shoot?

should she try lob the goalkeeper?

should she pass the ball?

or should she try get around the goalkeeper?

lobbing the goalkeeper sounded a lot more mesmerizing.

so that's what she did. and . . . . it hit the back of the net.

the stadium began to irrupt into cheers and isa runs over to the crowd, doing her celebration; which is kissing her right wrist and holding up the number six.

"VAMOS ! (come on!)." jana fernández yelled in celebration, jumping into isa's arms.

isa loved when that happened. when she'd score and her team would rush over to her. she loved when people praised her. but she loved when her dad praised her the most.

they continued the game and isa got fouled by a tenerife player who was much much taller than isa. the player grabbed isa's hand and pulled her up, before whispering in her ear, "you only have a spot on barcelona because of your dad. and don't for a second think you're like him because you scored a goal." the girl covered her mouth as she said it in isa's ear.

isabella wanted to punch the girl into her face, but the girl had already ran off her position in defence.

but isabella didn't have to wait long to get her revenge.
