Second Glance // Benjamin Pavard

XIX

I wake up a little later than I would have liked and noticed that Ben had already gotten out of bed. I look at my phone to see that it was two in the afternoon and the games was in less than 7 hours.

I go into the bathroom to clean myself up and I see that my hair looked absolutely terrible. I brush it and my teeth before going downstairs.

I step off the last step and make my way into the kitchen I see Benjamin and Kylian stare at me.

" Look who decided to wake up." Ben says and then smiles.

I go to sit with him and see I Kylian stare.

He looks at me. " Is there something you guys need to tell me?" He asks.

Ben puts his arm around me and replies " No."

I see Kylian smile and shake his head, he didn't believe it.

" Anyway," I say trying to change the subject, "What time are you leaving?"

Kylian looks down at his phone, " Right about now," he replies.

Ben gets up and gives me a kiss on the forehead before he and Kylian go out the door to go meet up with the rest of the team and get ready for their game.

Kylian goes to lock me in but I stop him right before he does.

" I'm going to the match too. How am I supposed to leave if I'm locked in?"

Kylian opens the door back up all the way and looks at me. " Tu as raison."

He walks over and gives me the key to his place.

" Don't forget to lock the door. "

I hear Ben laugh before he closes the door and they both leave.

I look down at the key that keeps all of Kylian Mbappé's expensive stuff safe.

Don't forget to lock the door.

-------------------------------------------

I had nothing to do for a few more hours so I decided to clean up just a little bit more.

I ate some fruit and watched TV.

I was so bored out of my mind with nothing to do and no one to talk to.

I get an incoming FaceTime from none other than Julian Draxler.

I answer it excitedly.

" Liliana, I've missed you!" He says.

I smile, " I missed you as well."

" Are you still coming to the match?" He asks.

" I wouldn't miss it for the world," I tell him.

" Are we still on for afterwards?"

" I was thinking we could just hang out tomorrow since it was going to be late after the match and you probably have to do stuff with the team. "

He frowns but nods his head, " I guess it could work."

" I need to go get dressed for the match," I tell him.

" I'm not starting," He replies.

" I don't think you were supposed to tell me the lineup. "

He smiles big and laughs. " You're too cute."

I blush a little bit before replying.

" I'll see you there. Bye Jules!"

I hang up and put my phone down. The smile on my face instantly vanishes. I believe it had something to do with Ben.

I felt like I was betraying him in a way by talking to Julian. It's not like we are together or anything.

I'm not with either guy. Just being friendly. Really friendly.
