"Oh my gosh, is it Beyoncé?" I asked out loud to no one in particular.

I heard Neymar chuckle, "She's far from that one."

"Asshole." I heard a familiar voice mutter under her breath.

"Antonella?" She uncovered my eyes before skipping over to my side, and giving me a kiss on the cheek whilst wrapping her arms around my shoulders. I laughed, "You're here!" I hugged her tightly. She smelt of fresh roses.

She laughed, "I missed you so much!"

I pulled away smiling, "I missed you too! How are you?"

"I'm great, what about you? Did things go okay?" She lowered her voice at the last part.

I nodded, "Yeah, nothing happened." I said, lowering my voice.

"Um, hello? I'm still here."

"Neymar!" Antonella ran over to him, giving him a hug.

"Ow, ow, ow!" I shook my head, laughing at their antics.

"Mommy!" I spun around and saw a little, brunet boy running over to me.

"Jeremy!" I picked him up, spinning him around.

He laughed, clutching onto me, "I missed you!"

I kissed his forehead, "I missed you too, cutie!"

Antonella and Neymar walked over to us. I set Jeremy down and watched as he ran over to Neymar. He picked him up, laughing and ruffling his hair. I smiled at them, but that smile soon died down when I saw someone familiar walking up to us, holding Thiago.

Leo.

I swallowed visibly, wanting to make a run for it but obviously couldn't, seeing as he was my brother and that I couldn't avoid him even if I wanted to. Thiago ran over to me and hugged my legs. I looked down at him and ruffled his brown hair, "Hey, Thiago!"

"Hi, auntie!" He giggled.

He let go of my legs before skipping over to Antonella. Leo looked at me with no sense of emotion on his face.

"Tori."

"Leo."

Silence.

"I see you came to Brazil with Neymar." His voice didn't seem to be indicating any sense of emotion either.

"I did." I said.

I looked over at Neymar who was standing with Antonella. He had Jeremy in his arms and Thiago was hugging Antonella's legs. I fought a smile. The sight was just too cute. He caught my eye and looked at Leo. He set Jeremy down before walking over to us.

"Hey, Leo." Neymar greeted him, standing by my side.

"Neymar." Leo nodded at him.

"You're mad, aren't you?" I looked at Leo.

He sighed in frustration, "What do you think? You disobeyed me and came here without my permission. To say that I'm mad would be an understatement. What were you thinking, Tori? I thought I made myself pretty clear."

"I'm sorry."

"And you," He said, looking at Neymar, "I'm grateful that you were willing to take my sister to Brazil with you, but I would've appreciated it if you had discussed it with me before."

"Leo, she's old enough to make her own decisions. She's not a little girl anymore and you have to accept the fact that she's an independent, grown woman. She can make choices for herself. She might be grown up, but she'll always be your little sister." Neymar said, looking at him.

Leo looked him and then me before taking a deep breath and responding, "Yeah. Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry I yelled at you." He said, looking at Neymar.

"It's cool. You had every reason to be mad."

Leo looked at me, "I'm sorry."

I smiled, "Come here, idiot." I said, pulling him into a hug. He chuckled, hugging me back.

I looked at Neymar and mouthed a 'thank you.' He smiled at me before giving a slight nod and walking back to where Antonella and the kids were.

Leo pulled away, "So, are we okay?"

"We're okay." I said, smiling at him.

We walked back over to where everyone was standing and spent the rest of our day together touring around the beautiful city.

"So, what did you wanna tell me?" Antonella asked, plopping down on the bed. Antonella, Leo, Thiago and Jeremy were staying in a different hotel, however Antonella spent most of her time in my hotel room, which I didn't mind.

"I don't even know where to start." I sat across from her.

"Start from the beginning."

"Okay, so on our first day here, Neymar and I spent the whole day touring around the city. Later on, we went shopping and I ran into a really cute guy. His name's Nick and he's from Italy. We spent a lot of time together, getting to know each other. I really liked him but just a few days ago, I realized something and I hadn't even admitted it to myself yet."

"What, that you're pregnant again?" She joked.

I rolled my eyes at her, "No, that I was in love."

"Aww, with Nick?"

"No."

"Then who else?" She asked in confusion. I was silent. "Tori?" I remained silent. "No." She gasped.

I looked at her before taking a deep breath and saying, "I'm in love with Neymar, Ella."
