Neymessi

This isn't the new fic but this has been in my world since EARLY 2017!

"I just don't understand why you have to have lunch with her. And I really don't understand why I can't come along." Neymar pressed getting frustrated.
"I told you, it's to discuss an important matter, the kids. We need to talk about visitation; weekends, weekdays, holidays, etc. I just threw my families life into a whirlwind, they deserve at least this much." Leo explained.
"Ok and I get that, but I should be able to come along!" Neymar argued.
"No! You obviously don't get this! Antonella doesn't need to be put in anymore pain by seeing the man I left her for at a meeting about our family. You have no opinion, no input about my children or their lives." Neymar's eyes widened.
"In case you forgot Leo, I'm going to be in their lives from this day forward. I WILL be involved in their lives and I WILL help you make the best decisions possible for them." Neymar's eyes showed pain and hurt but he did his best to mask it.
"Yeah sure, just not today." Leo brushed the matter off like it was nothing and that angered Neymar.
"Don't just dismiss this like it's nothing! This is important!"
"And it's decided! Final! Over! So stop pushing my buttons Neymar!" Neymar huffed heavily and screamed internally.
Leo stared at him as Neymar continued to act childishly.
"And this is why you have no say. You're childish. Immature. You're just like my children!" Leo's face was red and his eyes were full of anger.
"I want to be involved Leo! From the first step to the very last! Not from step two or three! Step one!" Neymar plead with an honest tone.
"No. How many times do I have to say it? No. No. No!" Leo attempted to walk away but Neymar gripped his wrist tightly.
"Leo! Stop being impulsive and think about this! This is important!" Leo looked back with a sort of venom in his eyes.
"Which is exactly why you're not included!" Leo ripped his wrist away and jogged heavily down the carpeted steps.
"Leo! Lionel! Don't you dare walk out that door or so help me I will not be here when you come back home!" Leo's steps halted slowly as he reached the door.
"Then maybe I'll bring Antonella back with me. Lord knows she respects me and my decisions, even if they were as stupid as the one I made choosing you over her."
Neymar stumbled back as Leo's words shot through him like a bullet.
"I'm..." Neymar's voice cracked as he tried to argue his case despite the stabbing pain he felt in his chest and the burning in his eyes.
"I'm just trying..." That's when the first sob broke through his throat, followed by another and another.
Soon enough he was a wobbly mess, not able to see straight, the pain in his chest intensifying.
"I'm going to be late." Leo didn't waste another second before he was out the door and into his car.
"What did I do wrong?" Neymar pleaded for answers from no one in particular.
Neymar was only allowed to cry for an hour before he was interrupted by a knock at the door.
"Shit..." He had forgotten that Davi Lucca was coming today.
Neymar wiped his tears and collected himself briefly before throwing open the door and immediately engulfing his baby boy in his arms.
"Hey baby. I missed you so much." Neymar waved to Davi's nanny before shutting the door and placing Davi on his feet.
"How was your mama's?" He asked as he took Davi's jacket off and placed it on the couch, not missing Davi's eye-rub and yawn.
"Good. We went to the movies and saw the new LEGO Movie! It was so funny pai!" Neymar plastered on his best smile as he rubbed Davi's mop of hair everywhere.
"That's great Davi. You look tired. How about a nap?" Neymar picked up his son once more as they marched up to Ney's and Leo's room.
"Where's Papi Leo?" Davi asked as he and Neymar settled into the king sized bed together, burrowing under the comforters.
"He's busy right now but he'll be back soon. It's nap time now my baby." Neymar wrapped his slender arms around Davi and buried his nose into his back.
Before he knew it, he was passed out.

"Papi Leo!" Davi wormed his way from Neymar's limp hold and waddled over to Leo, who had just walked in.
"Shhh we have to be quiet buddy. Your pai is tired now." Leo glimpsed up at Neymar, who had a rare frown set on his face as he slept.
"Pai seems different Papi..." Davi expressed his concern with Leo as he too looked over to Neymar.
"What do you mean Davi?" Leo pressed for an explanation.
"When I came over his eyes were all red and his shirt was wet. He had a big smile but I don't think he was happy..." Leo let Davi's words sink in, about to speak up when Davi continued.
"I think my Pai is the best Pai in the whole world, Papi. I know he's sad a lot, but he always pretends to be happy just for me. And he plays the best games with me! And he takes the best naps with me! I hate naps Papi, but with Pai they're the best..." Davi turned back to Leo and placed a kiss on his cheek as Leo just stared at him.
"I'm gonna go play with Poker now Papi!" Davi dashed off down the long hallway to find Poker as Leo stood from his position on the floor.
Davi's words seemed to open Leo's eyes, to finally make him understand that Neymar just wanted to be the best Pai for all his boys, biological or not. Neymar prided himself on making others laugh and happy, often putting aside his own feelings for the sake of others. Neymar worked tirelessly to make Davi happy, and all he wanted was to do the same for Leo's boys.
"I'm so stupid..." Leo walked over to Neymar as the Brazilian continued to sleep.
Leo's cold hand found Neymar's cheek as his fingertips brushed it back and forth.
"What are you doing Leo?" Neymar moved out of reach as he awoke startled.
"Ney I..." Leo didn't know what to say. Nothing could possibly excuse what he had said and done to Neymar.
"How are the boys? Did you get everything worked out? How's Anto? I hope she is doing alright..." Neymar bit his fingers nervously as his eyes seemed to be calculating, not truly seeing what was in front of him.
"Neymar." Leo was baffled.
"Is something wrong?" Neymar looked worried as he inched closer to Leo, ready to fix any issue Leo mentioned.
"Yes. You are the issue." Neymar's heart felt as though it had been shot for a second time that day.
"What..." Neymar's head dropped and his gaze landed on his shaking fingers.
"I hurt you today. I hurt you so badly and yet you act like I never said what I said; never did what I did... You're supposed to be mad at me. You're supposed to yell and berate, *hell* even hit me Neymar. Instead, you act like I never treated you the way I did..." Leo was in disbelief.
Neymar's eyes widened as he shuffled forward on the bed towards Leo, his arms coming up to latch behind his neck.
"Leo... what you said today was uncalled for and extremely hurtful, but I know you didn't mean any of it. When I went through this with Davi's Mom, I was so scared she'd take my boy away... I didn't want my Mama's or Pai's help. I was just scared and so... so alone. My son means the world to me. I'd do anything for him, and that's why I know that everything you said today, it was because you were scared. If you screwed one thing up at this meeting, it could've meant the difference of whether you see the boys two weeks a month or two weeks a year. I know how you feel about your boys, because that's how I feel about mine. He's my everything, and so are your boys now. Thiago... Mateo... they mean the world now too." Leo was speechless, doing the only thing he could think to do at that moment, tackle the love of his life into a bear hug and smother him in kisses.
"I love you Neymar."
