|Lionel Messi|

🎶Lying beside you
Here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mine
Softly you whisper
You're so sincere
How could our love be so blind🎶

"Leo you gotta get up sometime, babe it's 2pm." I say quietly sitting down next to him on our bed, rubbing his back.

"No. Let me just lay here in sorrow forever."

Argentina recently lost to Chile(4-1) in the Copa America. Leo has been really down about it. For the past three days he's been laying in bed, sleeping. He's never gotten this low before after losing a match. I'll admit I was a bit worried.

"Lionel, I get you are upset about losing, but laying here all day doing nothing isn't going to help. Come on levántate |get up|." I say firmly standing up, reaching my hand out for him.

"Y/N, mi amor. Can you just come lay with me? Right now I would just like some type of support." He looked to me with his soft, brown eyes which always made me give in at an instant.

I climb into bed, snuggling under the cover. Leo reaches for my body and pulls me closer, so I now have my head resting on his chest. I lightly trace along his tattoos on his arm with my index finger. I do this for a while until Leo interrupts me with a conversation.

"What is wrong with me? I've been training my ass off day and night for this game. I worked so hard for this. Everyone was depending on me, and I failed them. Now I'm just a big disappointment. I'm so worthless."

"Lionel listen, you did amazing out there and just because you lost a match doesn't mean you are worthless. I don't know if you noticed but you're one of the world's greatest football players to ever set foot on a pitch. Even the greatest sometimes fall but it doesn't mean it's the end. When you fall you get back up. You can't sorrow on your lost. You learn from it and that's what makes you better." I gaze up to Leo who had a smile from ear to ear.

"I needed that. Thank you amor." He whispers into my ear, before kissing my cheek.

"I was just feeling so low that day. I had hope in us during that shoot out. Then once I missed my shot, damn. I knew it was over. After the game people tried to sympathize with me but nobody really understood my pain after losing that match. You know people think, 'Oh it's just a match. No big deal.' But that was a very important win for me, for my country. Football is my life. It's who I am. On that day I felt so alone, because no one seems to understand the importance of football and how much I value it."

Hearing him tell me that kind of hurt me. I'm his wife for God's sake. He was feeling alone and I didn't even take that into consideration.

"Lionel, I am here. You know that. I will forever be by your side whenever you need me. Here I am with open arms. Nothing to hide believe what I say." As corny as it sounded, it was all true. I would always be there for Lionel.

He was the love of my life.

"I love you so much. Sometimes it's hard to believe I got so lucky." He leant down towards me, connecting our lips.

"I love you too. Now, how about we get up. I'll start dinner and you hop in the shower then we can finally spend sometime together?" I suggest.

"Are you trying to say I smell?" He playfully cocks an eyebrow at me.

"Well.."

Lionel flips over on top of me attacking me with kisses, and begins to tickle my sides.

"Le—Leo, stop!" I try to breath out, trying to remove his hands from me.

"Alright, since I smell so horrible I'll get in the shower. Care to join me, love?" He smirks slyly.

"Haha, very cute aren't you? No." I sarcastically roll my eyes.

"Worth a try." He puts his hands up in defense.

I start to walk out the door to the kitchen. Until I was suddenly swept off my feet by him.

"Lionel Andrés Messi what are you doing?!" I scream.

"Well you did say that you wanted to spend sometime together, so I am taking you to shower with me!"

"I didn't mean like this!" I hiss at him.

He sets me down on the bathroom counter, removing his shirt and sweatpants.

"Arms up." He commands, gripping the hem of my shirt pulling it off me, then doing the same for my pants.

After discarding the rest of our clothes. Lionel picks me by my legs leading us into the shower.

"Shower me baby."
