Don't Let Me Go

Chapter 17

I paced back and forth across the cold ground of Neymar's home. It was nearly nine at night and he wasn't back yet. God knows what in the world he could be doing, the thought almost scared me.

I made my way up the stairs and decided to go to bed. As I slipped into a pair of jogging pants and a tank top, I heard the front door open then slam shut followed by people yelling at each other. I went wide-eyed, and I reached for the door handle. I pushed it open and trotted down the stairs to find Neymar and Leo yelling at each other. It confused me, they were such close friends.

Neymar's attention turned to me, and he gave me an annoyed look before pushing past me and walking up the large set of stairs. My jaw dropped, as I turned to Leo who watched Neymar intensively.

"What the hell is his problem?" I asked him, and he let out a big sigh as he took a seat on the bad stool.

"He got drunk at my place, almost beat the hell out of Alexis again. He is loosing his mind Bella" I listened to Leo, who was now worried for his friend. I took a seat beside him and placed my head in my hands.

"Ever since you guys were a thing, he's been doing things I never could imagine Neymar doing" I nodded at his choice of words. Leo was right, Neymar wouldn't beat up his teammate. Or would he?

"So why were you guys just yelling at each other?" I asked him.

"He didn't want a ride home, apparently he could've drove himself but he's to wasted" Lionel replied, and got up from his chair.

"Well thank you for driving him back" I replied, and inched towards Leo before we exchanged a hug. "If you ever need any help with him, don't be afraid to give me a call okay?" I smiled, and nodded before pulling back.

We exchanged goodbyes before he drove off in the darkness. I sighed, not wanting to go upstairs but I knew I had to. At least I was getting my own room.

The next morning I was woken up from the loud sound of rain coming through my window. I groaned, and rolled over knowing the time was still early for my liking. Curious anyways, I clicked the power button on my phone, and the bold numbers of " 10:54" came up. I groaned, but I knew I had to get out of bed.

I made my way down the hallway into Neymar's room. His bed was made, and his tiny radio system was playing a light sound of music. I walked down the stairs, and noticed he was in the kitchen cooking something. Cooking mixes are on the counter, and a hand towel slung over his shoulder. I leaned myself against the door frame and watched in awe as Neymar did his best to get his cooking perfect.

He looked up from the stove and smiled at me. "Morning sleeping beauty" Neymar said as he plopped a pancake on a plate. I smiled.

"Morning there chef" I took a seat down on the bar stool and watched him. Neymar looked bubbly, and more happy than he was last night and I was happy to see that.

"I was just about to come up there and wake you" Neymar muttered, and placed a plate of pancakes in front of me.

The thought of Neymar and his actions recently almost scared me, but I didn't want to think about that. I put that thought aside, and started with the breakfast that Neymar handed me.

"These are so good" I muttered, a mouth full of food. Neymar laughed and nodded. "Thank you"

"I have a few plans for us today" Neymar said, as he placed his empty plate in the dishwasher.

"Like what?" I questioned him, smiling and copying his actions. I took a seat back down and sipped on my coffee. Neymar smiled.

"It's a surprised, don't ask though because I won't tell you" He winked.

"Go get ready. I'll be in the shower down here if you need me. There's stuff in the closet, grab whatever you need!" Neymar shouted, as he closed the door behind him to the bathroom.

I made my way upstairs and picked out an outfit for the day. Before getting into the shower, I checked my phone as I noticed a few mixed texts from the girls on my team. I checked the first few which was from Andrea.

*We lost our game, could've won of you were there! Miss you tons, how's Neymar?*

*I have so much to tell you! Call me when you can!*

I went back to my messages, obviously deciding to answer her after, and looking at my messages from Nikki.

*Hows Barcelona? There's some stuff I need to tell you*

I sighed and shut my phone off. I grabbed the things I needed that was in the closet, and hopped into the shower. I let the water run down me, as I thought about the texts I received. I didn't know what the girls meant by 'I need to tell you so much' I was getting nervous, and I hoped everything was fine over there in Seattle.

I finished up, and shut the water off once I was done. As I dried off and got dressed, I texted Andrea and Nikki back.

As I was fixing up my hair, I heard a light knock on the door. "Come in" I said, as I grabbed my phone since it went off.

Neymar entered through, and smiled. He was dressed in just an ordinary outfit but he still managed to look as good as ever. "Are you excited?" Neymar asked, as he plopped down on the bed and looked up at me. I smiled and nodded.

"Of course I am" Neymar smiled and sat in silence. I turned around to face the mirror, and I unlocked my phone. The text was from Nikki.

*Not sure if you had time to check your twitter and the internet, but look at this*

I opened up the link that was attached to the text, and there was pictures of Neymar and I everywhere. Here was some of us on the walk that we went on, boarding the plane, and coming into Barcelona. I noticed a few tweets from people, complimenting Neymar and I, and some hate.

*This doesn't bother me. I knew this was going to happen sometime soon* I replied, and placed my phone down.

"Okay so here's the plans" Neymar started, and got up and walked closer to me.

"We have to go out and get a few things, then I take you to your surprise" We both smiled, and he wrapped his arms around me. Neymar placed a kiss on my lips and on my cheek.

"Oh, and bring a bathing suit" Neymar whispered, and kissed me once more before prancing out the room and closed the door behind him.

I sighed and unsteady breath, he is the worst for that. He just, kisses me then leaves me in this state.

I called Andrea and she answered almost instantly. "Okay, you ready to listen?" She called out, and I laughed. "Yes, speak"

"There's this new assistant coach that we got, and his name is Gaige. He's the sweetest guy ever and-" I cut her off by laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" She asked me, and chuckled. I groaned jokingly.

"Just continue" Andrea laughed and told me the rest of the story. It turns out this Gaige guy got asked to play on the MLS. They went out a few times, and he's the "dreamiest" guy you could ever meet. I was happy for Andrea, her ex-boyfriend was not the brightest guy out there.

I packed the rest of my stuff that I needed for the day and made my way down the stairs, to meet Neymar waiting.

"Ready?" He asked, a smile still plastered on his face. I smirked, and nodded.

Ahh! Update! It's just kind of a filler and I'm sorry. :( So I was thinking ... My readers don't know much about me really. Let's change that :)

Most writers on wattpad are older, like either in highschool or college and whatnot. And even people in the 5sos fam and one direction fandom, they're all older. But I'm only starting grade 9 this year. (freshy yess) I honestly hope I won't get hate for this aha ...

Umm .. I'm from Canada, I play soccer and I ❤️ Real Madrid. There's not much else to tell so that's it. :) and yes that's me in my new icon.

QOTD:

How do you guys feel about Neymar's behavior? Do you think it'll ruin their relationship?
