Absolutely not caring what Marc has to say at this point, I sent Maria a message.

After coming back to the hotel last night, I stayed awake till 2 in the morning waiting on him, but Marc never came back to the hotel. Neymar went back to his place and told me to let him know as soon as something happens. Also, according to Sergio, he "needed to go visit a friend." A text message confirmed by Gerard Pique. But something that was an obvious lie.

As of right now, I'm actually in Sergio's room. We've been talking a bit, but that's about all. I still haven't told him the real reason as to why I'm after Marc right now, Neymar is the only person who knows.

"Gezz, keep thinking like that and your brain is going to explode Zack." Sergio said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Opps, sorry. Was it that obvious?" I asked him.

"Yes! Look, he has to come back either way, so until then, just relax." He urged.

"Alright, I'll relax." I replied.

"Good. Anyway, I'll be back in a few." He said, walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?" I raised an eyebrow.

"I'm going to go see Pilar, she's staying at another hotel. And she wants me to help her pick out a dress for tonight." He answered back.

"What's going on tonight?" I asked.

"The whole team is going out one more time so we can wind down the World cup stress. I'm paying for all of it. You should come." He invited me, opening up the door.

"Of course, wouldn't miss it. Oh, and tell her I said hi!" I smiled.

"Sure. Oh, and Zack if you can, try to give the guys some space today...keep in mind that we just lost the World cup." He explained.

"Alright." I said to him.

"Alright, See you tonight." He said, finally leaving out the door.

Well, looks like Sergio is gone, no use in being in the room.

I decided to go see for myself what Sergio was talking about. Remember, I'm on the 2nd floor, The Real Madrid floor.

Walking down the hallway, I knocked on Nacho's room door.

"Nacho you there?" I asked.

No reply.

Ok...

Next door I guess...This time, it was Dani's room.

"Hey Dani you awake?" I asked.

No reply.

I guess he's still asleep...

And then there was Isco's room.

"Hey Isco, you there?" I knocked and asked.

It took a minute, but I finally heard the door knob turn and open.
