Close to You ➳ Antoine Griezmann

Chapter 28 ♔

♔ Antoine's POV ♔

Three months later..

"Antoine, we heard you're engaged with Marisa Ronaldo. When's the wedding?"

"Antoine Griezmann, how do you feel about playing FC Barcelona on Sunday?"

"Antoine can you take a picture with this shirt for us?"

"Where's your fiancée Marisa?" 

"Well, she's not here as you can probably see." Filipe replies to one of the reporters who were attacking us both with questions.

Ever since myself and Marisa announced that we were engaged and getting married, everyone was going crazy with all the questions and even Filipe was getting bored of it. 

"Wow, you're so famous now." Filipe mentions, as we walk inside the training centre. 

I just look at him and roll my eyes and then give a little laugh, "No. I was always famous."

"It's time I got a girlfriend too, anyone want to date me? You?" Filipe asks, talking to the water dispenser. 

"Okay, you're just crazy man. Why are you-anyways. We have to do well, we just have to win this game against Barca." I say, smiling with the thought of winning.

"I know. By the way, when's Marisa coming back? She's been gone for so long shooting that film, I bet you miss her." Filipe says, walking into the changing rooms and putting his bag down.

I put my bags down next to Filipe's, "I don't know. She said she'd let me know but I haven't spoken to her for the last two days. And yes, I miss her like crazy man. Can't cuddle anyone now."

"You can cuddle me!" Filipe giggles, walking over putting his arms around me as we walk out.

"Oh god." I reply, trying to escape him.

We walk on the training grounds and see everyone else. This morning we just ran late because we got up late but we were here now so it was all cool. We walk over to the boys, who greeted us and kept congratulating me even though they congratulated me like almost a million times. 

"Congrats man." Koke says, giving me a high-five. 

"Yeah, congrats man. Real happy for you." Yannick says, slapping my arm.

"Congrats boy. She's a beauty." Torres says, winking at me.

"Alright alright, thanks guys. Let's get on with training." I say, trying to change the subject.

"Ooh look, our man's getting all shy." Koke smiles, laughing and trying to tease me.

We did a few passes and tackles and even went for penalty shoot outs. I even had to go in goal because the boys thought it would be funny to put me in goal even though I wasn't as tall as them.

After that, we switched and myself and Filipe decided to do a few passes to each other, talking about other players, what we had for dinner last night and you know. Just general things about life.
