The guys sprawled out on the grass, gulping down water, dramatically catching their breath after the warm-down laps Isa had just put them through. Uriel leaned back with an exaggerated sigh, clutching his chest like he was on the verge of collapse.

"Dios mío, Isa," Uriel groaned, wiping sweat from his forehead. "¿Esto es fútbol o entrenamiento militar? Estoy más muerto que vivo."

Jorge laughed as he stretched his legs out, flexing his toes. "Pensé que íbamos a aflojar después de los tiros, pero nada... Isa nos dejó a todos en la lona."

Chucky took a long sip of water and gave a mock shiver. "La próxima vez que Jimmy falte, le voy a pedir permiso para faltar también. Esto fue tortura."

Isa laughed, looking at the guys sprawled out. "No se quejen tanto, hombres. Les hace bien."

"¿Bien? No me puedo ni mover, Isa," Diego said, dramatically flopping back onto the ground. "Mañana voy a estar caminando como un abuelito, gracias a ti."

Isa and Kevin sat close on the bench, both laughing as they attempted to form a heart with their hands. Isa guided Kevin, placing his hands in hers as she demonstrated the shape.

"Mira, así," Isa said, pressing her fingers into position. "Tienes que poner los pulgares así para que se vea bien."

Kevin's gaze softened, completely focused on her. "No importa cómo lo hagas, siempre se ve bien cuando tú lo haces," he replied with a small smile.

Isa blushed, chuckling as she shook her head. "Cállate, Kevin. No me distraigas."

Kevin just grinned, still looking at her with a warmth that was hard to miss. Edson, seated next to Isa, was talking to César, who occasionally cast glances their way with a knowing smile.

Suddenly, Diego walked over and plopped himself between Isa and Edson, nudging Isa playfully as he looked at her and Kevin. "Aw, qué bonita pareja," he teased, his grin mischievous. "Fan de su relación."

Kevin's smile faded as he looked at Diego with a serious expression, though the corner of his mouth twitched. Edson, rolling his eyes, smacked the back of Diego's head.

"¡Cállate, baboso!" Edson scolded, giving Diego a light push.

Diego just laughed, rubbing his head. "¿Qué? Solo digo la verdad." He leaned back with a smirk, clearly enjoying getting under their skin.

Isa shook her head, trying to hide her smile. "Eres un metiche, Diego."

Diego shrugged, unfazed. "Nada más soy observador. Además, Kevin ya sabe que lo apoyamos todos, ¿no?" He gave Kevin a teasing look, who just smirked and shook his head, letting out a small sigh.

Kevin glanced back at Isa, still smirking. "Bueno, con amigos así... ya no necesito enemigos."

Isa laughed, giving Diego a playful shove. "Ya déjalo, Diego. Mejor cuéntanos algo útil."

Diego just laughed harder, clearly satisfied with himself. The playful banter continued as the teammates around them laughed, filling the benches with good-natured teasing and jokes.

Diego, never one to hold back, leaned a bit closer to Isa, flashing his most charming smile. "Oye, Isa," he began, glancing at her with a playful twinkle in his eye, "¿te han dicho hoy que tienes los ojos más bonitos de todo el equipo?" He exaggeratedly placed his hand over his heart, pretending to swoon.

Isa laughed, rolling her eyes. "Ya, Diego. No empieces."

But Diego just smirked, undeterred. "No, en serio. Si me dieran un peso cada vez que me hipnotizas con esa sonrisa, ya sería millonario." He sent a quick wink her way, making Isa cover her face, laughing from his ridiculousness.
