The boy in the Middle

El Clasico

Pedri thought it was weird and adorable at the same time the way Pablo was so nervous for this el clasico .He kept pacing around and obsessing over it in a way that he has never done before .He had even convinced Pedri to call messi and get his advice  

Leo: So let me get this straight, you want to know how me and my boyfriend acted during the games??

Pablo: Yes, like how did you talk after, were did you go??

Leo lets out a soft laugh then proceeds to address Pedri

Leo: Pepi, are you okay with your boyfriend being in a confined space with a good looking man? Places where me and Cristiano would make out till our lips were sore?

Leo mocks

“NO, eww” they both answer at the same time

“I don’t want a confined space, just a good place for us to talk since he has blocked me everywhere on socials

Leo: Have you tried getting his phone number??

Pablo: No, I think that will be going a bit too far

Leo: But cornering him after a game isn’t? My Advice is do not force it, let him come to you when he wants to talk. Maybe he is still upset by you and rightfully so.

Damn, PaBlo was starting to understand Pedri when he said Leo was a reasonable man who will scold him for his whining if necessary. All Gavi wanted was advise not all this.

Pablo. Uhmm, you know what, you are right will give him his space.

‘Who the hell does he think he is’

Jude is sitting on the glass with Brahim as they cool off during their warm up. It was a lot of degrees hot and jude was craving the pool like mad

“The king of Lamasia, apparently” they both laugh. There was something about Gavi that made him be a ‘mean girl’ whenever he saw anything about him. Be it a billboard on the highway or a tiktok, everything about the boy made him mad. It was funny considering that he had had a good chat with the boy regardless of how that encounter ended, He knew deep down that Gavi wasn’t a bad person, he was just somebody dealing with his own demons but still he could not help but be mad him.

‘I do think you have a tiny crush on him though??’Brahim says making the light conversation be serious.

‘no I don’t actually, I’ve  told you that a million times. Plus I want my men at my eye level”

They both laugh at this and continued talking about other things when they noticed a figure approaching them.

.………………………………………….

Gavi did not give Jude his Space contrary to what he had promised.

“Hey Jude” the younger boy says to the Madrista during warm up. He could see the total shock in Jude eyes when he looked over Brahim then said okay. Maybe now they can move forward.

“Congrats” Jude says as they walk around the field with his mouth covered with his hand

‘For what??”it was Pablos turn to be confused

“Well you just made a scene there like you always do” Judee says looking over it

“And what does that even mean?”

“Well I don’t know bro, don’t you think its crazy that we have cameras and people around and you just walked up to your rival to talk before the most rivalry filled game in the world? That was a good idea in your head to you??’

“oh’ Jude was right .Gavi hadn’t thought out through. He can’t even imagine the headlines going around now and all the rumors that were going to come because if this.

Jude stops and looks him dead in the eyes.

“You need to grow up and stop rushing when you are making your decisions because it makes you look dumb. I am not here for your attention seeking ways or your homophobic tendencies. We are here to do a job and you can’t just show up and get me way from my job and for what?? To give me a fake apology?? Be serious.  If I had it my way I would never want to see you again.”

Jude gives Gavi a fake smile probably for the cameras then walks away. Before he does though, he notices the tears that are about to fall from his eyes. Had he gone too far??he had forgiven Pablo a long time go for what had happened but guess he was just bitter that all of a sudden Pablo was “allegedly” gay and it pissed him off. Maybe he don’t run away that day because he was gay, maybe he ran because he thought Jude was into him and that was a weird way to reject him. That made him mad even more but seeing how he had just pretty much.

…………………………….

Gavi watched as Jude walked away. His hands trembling as it took all the control in the world for him to not punch him in the face. On the other hand though He wanted to cry so bad. Jude hated him and that was okay with him. He just wanted to apologize, nothing more nothing less. His heart was in the right place and if Jude wasn’t going to forgive him that was okay too. He can finally move on knowing that he atleast he had tried.
