The Player Swap Up

Chapter 16

I decided to write a Cristiano POV for the end of the fight part of the last chapter - so after Alex leaves

Cristiano POV

I texted Marcelo after Alex left. I asked him to come over. Being a loyal friend, he was at my house in ten.

He just walked in and joined me in the family room.

"What's wrong?" He asked concerned

"Alex and l had a fight. A bad one." I murmered

"Over?" He asked sitting down beside me on the couch

I began explaining what happened and how Katia was over and everything that happened after she left.

"I don't get it Marc. She keeps shutting me out. And I snapped on her, I really snapped at her," I said shaking my head "But I don't know anything about her! Except the generic things. And she won't let me get to know her, and I don't know why."

Marcelo took a minute to think "Where is your laptop?" He asked getting up

My laptop? "In my room but why do you-" but he was already up my steps

He came down with my computer in his hands open and on. He was already on the internet.

"How did you know my password?" I asked suspiciously

He looked up and gave me a sheepish grin "I saw you type it in one time."

I rolled my eyes, reminding myself that this guys my best friend for a reason.

"What are you doing anyway?" I asked

He sat beside me. I saw he was on Google and he searched Alex Morgan.

"Marc... I don't like this idea. It's weird." I said my eyes widening

"Look her wiki page. We can read it and see if it will answer any of your questions."

This feels wrong. So wrong.

"No Marc. Stop. I don't want to know this way." I said taking my laptop away and shutting it down.

"Well do you have any ideas?" Marcelo asked

I shook my head and put my head in my hands. "What did you even ask her about?" He asked quietly

"Just her family." I said tired

His eyebrows pulled together "Huh. Well hey, nothing you can do right now."

I nodded "True. And we have practice tomorrow." I said looking at the clock 10:32

"Thanks for coming over." I said walking him out

"Anytime bro. I'll see you tomorrow."

I shut the door and walked upstairs slowly.

As I laid in bed and thought about what happened. I realized I didn't do anything.
I didn't do anything.

And I can't apologize for nothing.

Alex POV

I woke fifteen minutes later than I normally do for practice. I would not show up early today.

I changed into my training clothes and put my hair up. I ripped off a piece a pre-wrap and tied it in my hair.

I ate a banana and some watermelon before heading out.

I've gotten used to driving here, I only got lost like three times since I've been here.
