𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐈𝐄, gavi

fourteen

Of course my seats were right at the front near Barca's bench. Gavi must have pulled some strings to get me here.

This girl who seemed to be my age sat down next to me.

She smiled kindly at me. "Hola."

"Hola." I reply.

"Are you alone?" She asks. "If so me too."

"Yes I am." I laugh slightly. "I'm Rosella but you can call me Rose."

"It's nice to meet you Rose." She says, "I'm Veronica, but please call me Ronnie, I hate Veronica."

"Oh of course. Nice to meet you too Ronnie." I say smiling at her again.

I watch as her eyes move to my back, "Gavi fan huh?" She says.

"You could say that." I say, debating if I should say he himself got me these seats and that the jersey i'm wearing is his.

I looked at the back of her shirt and saw Pedri, 8 on the back.

"Pedri fan huh?" I ask, raising my eyebrow.

"Yeah, he's been my favourite for as long as I can remember." She says, a slight red tint in her cheeks.

"Cute." I say, laughing.

"Rosie." I hear someone yell.

My head turns and I see Lamine run over to the barricade.

I get up from my seat and lean over the barricade slightly.

"Oh hey there Lamine." I say, smiling at him.

"Nice to see you." He says, laughing. He looks over his shoulder, looking for someone. "Ay Hector come here."

Hector walks over, his eyes drifting over to me. "Oh no not you."

"Hola Hector." I say, leaning my hand over the barricade and ruffling his hair.

"Ay stop that." He says batting my hand away.

"Yeah you love me really." I say. I quickly glance over to Ronnie who looks shocked out of her mind. I beckon for Lamine and Hector to come closer. "Can you get Pedri? Ronnie here is a big fan and you know I think it would be nice for her to say hi to him."

"Of course." Lamine says, quickly running off to get Pedri.

"You're going to try get them together aren't you." Hector says, crossing his arms over his chest. "How long have you known her for?"

"Like 5 minutes. Still she's nice. I think we'd be good friends." I say, quietly.

Lamine comes back over, Pedri and Gavi following behind him.

"Hi Rosie." Pedri says, smiling at me.

"Hola, nice to see you." I say, smiling back at him. I turn behind me and look at Ronnie. "Hey Ronnie, come say hi to Pedri." I turn back to Pedri, "She's a big fan of you." He nods and turns to face Ronnie, which makes the smile on his face grow slightly bigger.

I turn back to the other three. "Hi again Gavi." I say.

"Hola, Mi Flor." He says, coming closer over to me.

I watch as Lamine nudges Hector and whispers something into his ear. Hector nods before whispering something back. I shake my head at them and face Gavi again.

"Mi Flor? Really?" I asked, crossing my arms on the barricade resting my chin on them.

"What it means flower and you know, your name is basically a flower." He explains.

"Yeah, I get it." I say smiling. It's cute. "Hey where are the other's? I want to meet them."

Gavi looks around, "Fermin and Ale are other there but I don't know where the other three are."

"Rosie." I hear someone say. I look over to see Pablo approaching us.

"Ok I don't know where the other two are now." Gavi mumbles and I laugh quietly at him.

"Hola Pablo. You on the bench today?" I ask as he comes closer.

"No i'm starting today." He says proudly.

"Aw i'm very happy for you." I laugh. "Try score today."

"Just because you asked." He replies.

"Ok we should probably go now." Pedri says as he breaks up his conversation with Ronnie.

"Good luck guys." I yell after them.

They all wave as they disappear round the corner.

I turn to face Ronnie who looks like she was about to explode.

"Good chat with Pedri then?" I ask, leaning back in my chair.

"Yes." She squeals. "Oh my God, your friends with them? How?"

"It's a bit of a long story." I say.

"Well you've got about twenty minutes." Ronnie says, checking her phone for the time before facing me again.

"Ok so it started off with Jude Belligham giving Pedri my number saying it was his." I explain.

"Wait wait wait. Jude Belligham?" She asks in disbelief. "You're friends with Jude?"

"Since I was five." I say, "Its been way too long." I laugh.

"God your living ever girls dream." Ronnie mumbles. "Anyway continue."

"So I got added the this groupchat."
