might aswell be real- joão félix

"here's your nutella Alana." I pick her up and she grabs it from my hand, grinning.

"thank you, who's this?" She whispers in my ear.

"guess," I whisper back at her.

"JOAO!" She shouts catching me completely off guard, "he is handsome."

Joao chuckles at her, "I know," I tell her smiling at him.

"I guess you guys made up then," my tio says. I can see in his face that he's relieved we are both happy now.

"yep," Joao says, proudly. As if he did anything.

"só para você saber que sempre torci pelo Pedri," Cris says slightly annoyed. I know he just wants me to be happy and he's upset that me and Joao are having a hard time.

(just so you know I always rooted for Pedri)

"você é tão mentiroso que queria que ela ficasse com o João e você sabe disso," Gio tells him jokingly. I can't believe they were talking about my love life.

(you're such a liar you wanted her to get with Joao and you know it)

"sim, antes que ele a machucasse," Cris complains crossing his arms. The look he's giving Joao would make me laugh if I didn't feel bad for him

(yeah before he hurt her)

"ignore-o, ele te ama de verdade," I reassure Joao. I try to hug him but it's kind of hard with a six-year-old in my hand.

(ignore him he loves you really)

Cris rolls his eyes, "eu acho."

(i guess)

"I'm really sorry for hurting her," he genuinely looks so guilty he's making me feel bad. "I really am. I hate myself for it so, so much."

"it's okay, you didn't understand, it wasn't on purpose," Cristiano reassures him.

"sometimes you don't act like a dad, I don't like that you and Joao are friends," Cris says jokingly mad making us laugh.

Mateo and Eva run in, "prima, you didn't wake us up this morning."

"don't be a baby," Alana sticks her tongue out at them. She's so mean sometimes but she definetly got it from Jr.

"guys calm down I'm sorry I wasn't well but I'm here now," I drop Alana and hug the others.

"why? What happened? Are you okay now?" Mateo looks at me worried.

"don't worry, I'm fine now, thanks Teo." That's the cutest nickname I've ever come up with, I'm actually proud of it.

"who is this?" my other cousin asks.

As I'm about to answer Alana does it for me, "her boyfriend."

I'm going to go crazy, "what is wrong with this family? She was asking me."

"he's a bit scary," Mateo says standing behind me.

I giggle at his words, "he isn't, he's scared of you guys."

"no I'm not," he denies what I said. 

"yeah, you are." Cristiano says. It's so, so obvious. I can tell by his body language but maybe I just know him really well.

"put your nutella away," tia tells Alana, who looks like she's about to drop it.

"okay," she nods her head and goes to the kitchen with me and Joao behind her.
