was it worth the fame- pedri gonzalez

cuarenta y cuatro

I go back in the changing room, "everything okay?" Xavi asks me.

I nod my head, "good."

"can you play with a head on your neck?" He gives me a concerning look.

"I can do it with 2," I reaassure him.

"that's what I need to hear," he pats my back and we walk out onto the pitch.

"she forgave you?" Pablo guesses.

"yeah, but we aren't okay," I tell them and they give me a confused look. 

"as in?" Joao asks waiting for me to explain what I meant.

"she doesn't trust me anymore, so we've taken 5 steps back, but nothing else matters because she's not gonna leave me." I'm honestly over the moon and I shouldn't be but that was my biggest fear, that she was going to break up with me.

"lets win a match," Joao says pumped up. And we do we ended up winning 4-2

I scored two goals and showed of my nails assisted one and its safe to say Tabi is the reason why. "Oh my god, what happened? You were so bad then you were so good." Adella says speechless.

"Tabi came and forgave me," I tell her beaming with joy. "Then she went home but besides the point, I have a second chance and that's all I need."

"what do you plan on doing with this second chance?" Joao asks. Him and his questions.

I shrug my shoulders, "I'm not sure yet but I will be." 

"text us everything after you drop us off," Pablo says.

"oh I will," I drop them off and get home.

"congrats," Tabi says smiling at me.

"it was thanks to you," I say. I seriously owe it all to her. Even when I've fucked up she checks up on me and makes me feel better, that's why I love her so much.

"I thought as much," she responds proudly.

"how long will you be mad at me?" I ask because I seriously can't deal with her being mad for much longer.

She shakes her head, "I'm not mad, I'm hurt and I don't know how long. As long as it takes for me to forgive you. Anyway I'm going for a walk to clear my mind I'll see you later."

"stay safe I'll make dinner," I tell her. First step to getting forgiveness do nice things.

"don't do anything you'll regret," she jokes. I know she's talking about the cookies.

"it's a bit too late for that don't you think," I tell her.

"well try again from now," she walks out the door.

Aria's POV

Pedri's been giving me my space which I'm grateful for I'm not ignoring him but I am being more reserved than normal. We don't keep physical contact sometimes he tries to hold my hand or put his arm around me, hug me, kiss me but I don't let him. The most is touching elbows when we walk together. I can see it hurts him but that's all I'm comfortable with right now.

1 week later

I walk into my room and see something on the table I open it to see a ring, Pedri walks in looking proud of himself but I'm just confused, "what is this?"

"a promise ring," he tells me like it blatantly obvious.

"for what?" I ask.

"to promise that, I'll marry you eventually and that I'll never leave you," he answers.

"I'm not taking this, you can't earn my trust back by gifts Pedri," I tell him slightly annoyed. There's no way he thinks he can buy his way back to my heart.

"no because this is a gift that I'm all yours," he tries explaining.

"but your not because now that you've been doing all this with Nova, it's not just me anymore. It's me and her and it will always be me and her." Tears start falling down my cheek.

"Tabi that's not true I didn't do anything to her." That's why this is such a big problem and he doesn't seem to understand that.

"exactly, you didn't stop her," I tell him. If he stopped her we wouldn't be in this situation and no one would be upset. "you said stop one time that's not trying and that's not being loyal whether you did something or not."

"I'm trying to win you back," he takes my hand.

I sigh, "I know you are and I love you for that, but it's not all that easy for me. You've broken my heart once and I put a lot of faith in you so you don't do it again, but you did, so give me time."

He nods his head, "fine."

"you can take your ring back," I walk past him and wipe my tears. He just doesn't understand this is more than just hurting my feelings he broke my trust, he broke my heart and he took advantage of my love, and no amount of money or nice presents is gonna fix what he's done.

no way my dad's going again, he's actually an opp guys.
