Wrong choice (Ferran Torres)

Chapter 33

The end of the season was near and with it came many crazy news regarding Barça. Ferran had been devastated when Xavi announced he'd leave at the end of the season. But, like many other teammates, he felt very happy when he changed his mind and decided to stay. That seemed the end of that topic but now the rumours said Xavi was going to be sacked. And yet, Ferran found him at the Louis Vuitton show they both had been invited to.

Ferran got invitations for all sorts of events but refused them all. It was stupid but he knew he would be criticised for attending them even if it was during his free time. Football fans tended to think that the footballers weren't allowed to have hobbies or to enjoy their free time whichever way they wanted to.

But this time he accepted the invitation...because Anna had been invited too. She hadn't done any more modelling gigs recently apart from Calvin Klein and her contract with them was going to run out soon. So LV was trying to convince her to do a little campaign for them. And so far they just got her to accept attending the show. She knew it could be fun and a new experience.

"Hey Ferran", said Xavi when he spotted his player. "I didn't know you were coming to see the show".

"I didn't know about you being here either, coach".

"Yeah, not really my scene. But my wife thought it could be a fun night out so...you know how it is".

"Of course", laughed Ferran and then he spotted Anna arriving at the location where the show was being held.

"What is...", was going to ask Xavi when he spotted Anna too. "Still got a crush on her? Can't say I blame you. She seems to be very nice and she's obviously very beautiful".

"Can I tell you a secret?"

"Of course", told him his manager.

"Anna and I are dating. But we're keeping it private for now. Because of everything that happened with her ex".

"That makes sense. Well, I hope you're very happy".

"Thank you".

Since Anna had been invited by the brand directly, and not through second and third parties like Ferran, she was given a more enthusiastic welcome. They asked her to pose in front of the camera for the livestream they were doing on Instagram and YouTube. It was a video, not photos, so they wanted her to be flirty and cute.

"Sure", she laughed.

"Think about that asshole who cheated on you, babe", told her the guy behind the camera. "Show him what he's missing".

So Anna posed for the camera like she never had before. But she wasn't doing it for Hugo...she did it for Ferran. She could see him watching her and, again, that made her feel very sexy.

Small groups of people were gathering while they waited for the show to begin and Anna approached the one where Ferran was talking to some people he didn't know.

"Hello. Do you mind if I steal him from you?"

"Thank you", he told her when they had separated from everyone else. "That was the most boring conversation I had in my life".

"Poor you".

"Anna...".

"What?", she didn't understand his weird face at that moment.

"Why do you look so pretty?"

Anna burst out laughing, which caught a lot of people's attention. "You are looking mighty dapper yourself".

"You're coming home with me later, right?"

"If you insist..."

Everyone was told to sit down on their reserved seats when the show was going to start. Sadly for Ferran, Anna was sitting closer to Xavi than to him. But he could see her pretty well from his seat so he knew he was going to pay more attention to her than to the models on the catwalk.

After the show, Ferran saw one of the Louis Vuitton people approaching Anna. He could tell what was happening immediately just seeing the way she acted. The Louis Vuitton person was asking her again to do the campaign for them. And finally, she nodded.

The little after party was held in the same location as the show. And when Ferran saw Anna move away from the crowd, he followed her and grabbed her arm to take her to a little spot where they could hide.

"This outfit is driving me crazy...", he whispered in her ear before he started to kiss her neck.

"It's just a normal outfit".

"It's not. And even if it was, it's you wearing it. Nothing is just normal when you wear it".
"I'm not normal?", she teased.

"No, you're the most beautiful, sexiest, most perfect woman in the world".

"Go on. I like where this is going...".

"I rather kiss you but I'll tell you how perfect you are later".

"I like that plan too".
