Torn | Marco Asensio & Andre Silva {ON HIATUS}

THREE WEEKS LATER.

'I'm going to miss you trouble makers so much.' I patted my siblings heads in front of security. Little Andy, Melissa, and Amanda were my little babies that came as a surprise when I was eight. You don't think that after being the only child for eight years triplets would come out of nowhere. They were an interesting bunch, to say the least. They made me laugh all the time being crazy ten year olds.

'We're gonna miss you most big sissy.' Melissa smiled and they all hugged me making me shed a little tear.

'We love you little girl.' My parents smiled and hugged me too. I smiled back at them as I headed through security, my life was about to change in just eight hours. I had been in contact with my brother for the past two weeks. He was so excited that he cried on the phone with me, making me cry too. I was excited to meet him, or reunite I guess. He was funny and he barely spoke english which made every conversation interesting. I began trying to learn Portuguese and it was pretty easy since I spoke fluent Italian.

I was boarding on my flight and noticed a bunch of men in light purple sweaters getting on before me and sitting in almost all of first class. Rui insisted he pay for me to come and I guess after finding out he was a famous soccer player I couldn't refuse because my family wasn't well off supporting four children and one going off to college. I noticed one as he turned around to put one of his bags away, and nearly choked.

'Toni Kroos?' I whispered to myself and then instantly regretted it because he turned around to face me. He smiled at me and sat in his seat. I realized Real Madrid was finishing their American Tour and I'm guessing they were all traveling to Portugal and getting connecting flights from there because it was easier. My face turned a million shades of red as I looked around for my seat. I had a window seat and no one was sat next to me yet and I thanked God for not putting a Real player because they were my favorite team and I'd embarrass myself no doubt.

'Hi I'm Asensio.' The Spaniard smiled as he took a seat next to me. I stared at him with wide eyes until I calmed myself down and managed to say something.

'Hi.' I said before getting up and heading to the bathroom. I walked in and checked my outfit over. Shorts, an over the shoulder shirt, vans. Simple, and cute, good. My hair was down and curly which was fine. I smiled and head back out confidently. How could I want a future in journalism and not be able to speak to my favorite team.

'Sorry I wasn't feeling well earlier.' I smiled at him and he shook his head.

'It's all good.' He smiled and I sat down opening the window shade. I waved New York goodbye after we took off and took a few pictures of the glowing city below me. I smiled and felt a little free traveling alone for the first time to meet my blood brother.

'So, what brings you to Portugal.' He smiled speaking in English letting his accent flow aswell as his words.

'My brother actually, it's a long story.' I smiled and he laughed a little making me feel self conscious.

'I mean we have time.' He smiled and my nerves eased. I relaxed and explained to him and he was pretty attentive and I tried to use some Spanish from High school to translate confusing parts.

'So you're telling me Rui Patricio is your long lost brother.' He said furrowing his eyebrows and I felt like he was going to laugh in my face but I had the FaceTime screenshots as evidence.

'I know I sound crazy but yes actually.'

'I believe you. Its crazy but I believe you.' I relaxed again and just smiled at him. Once the plane reached its respected height food came around.

'Marco what did you choose?' A huge man came up to our row and I choked on my water.

'Hey you didn't tell me if you were a fan or not.' Asensio teased and I just rolled my eyes at him.

'Guess what? Real is about to not be my favorite club if you don't shut up.' He pretended to be offended turning back to Cristiano.

'Chicken.'

'Please switch with me I chose pasta and its horrible.' He made a disgusted face and I chuckled.

'Hey, who's your friend?' He smiled over to me and I almost fainted.

'Well, Rui Patricio's sister, Luna.' Marco gestured to me and Cristiano's eyes went wide.

'You're the one he's been talking about since forever. I didn't know he was going to be in touch with you. It's so nice to meet you.' He shook my hand and walked back to his seat.

'He's such a legend I almost cried.' I sighed and Asensio laughed so loud getting looks from everyone.

'You are.' He said once he calmed down. Me and Asensio have literally been best friends ever since. After that trip I literally had the time of my life. I made new friends, one of them Cristiano fricking Ronaldo, and you never get used to it.
