Sheila's POV:

My name is Sheila Mariana Alverez Cortez and I'm Portuguese. Though my name may make it seem like I'm Spanish, I'm not. My mother, Diana Alverez, and my step-dad, Erik Cortez, are Spanish. My birth dad was German but my mother changed our last names to Cortez after she divorced my father and married Erik.

Anyway, I was on my way to the Real Madrid stadium. My uncle (on my mother's side of the family), Jose Mourinho, had invited me and my friends to surprise his team so that they'll have some inspiration during their game the next day. I got the text while i was in the shower. He asked me if I wanted to help him surprise the team so they would be in a good and energetic mood. I always loved hanging out with the guys of Real Madrid. I knew that my best friends would love to finally meet their celebrity crushes in person so that's why I decided to bring them along. My uncle promised me that he wouldn't tell anybody else about my surprise drop in.

"Ooh, I can't wait! I finally get to meet my celebrity crush, Kaka!" Sydney annouced squealing like a two-year-old. Next to her was Britney, who laughed at her childhood friend's childish behavior.

"Syd, relax. Sheila's trying to sleep." Teressa walked over to Sydney and put her arm around her. Michelle stayed where she was (next to me) and gave me a hug. Sydney is the eldest of us all and yet acts like the youngest. Teressa is the second eldest, Britney is the third eldest, I'm the fourth eldest, and Michelle is the youngest. Sydney has a crush on Kaka, Britney likes Cristiano Ronaldo, Teressa likes Sergio Ramos, and Michelle has huge crush on Marcelo. I hate Fabio Coentrao but I'm friends with all the other players.

An hour later:

We got to the airport and waiting for us were Ronaldo, Ramos, Marcelo, Kaka, and of course Fabio Coentrao. They were the only ones who Jose told the plan to. I mentally groaned and walked to the boys. I hugged my friends and pretended that Fabio wasn't there. When the guys had been introduced to my friends, we all piled into three cars. Fabio, Kaka, Sydney, and I all went in Kaka's car. Marcelo, Sergio, and Michelle went in Sergio's car. Ronaldo, Teressa, and Britney went Cristiano's car. I was in the back of the car with Fabio next to me with a seat between us.

"Hey, Sheila, how was the world tour?" Kaka asked me. I knew he was trying to make a conversation on the way to the stadium.

"I wish you boys had been there with me. It was awesome but after a while I started to become home sick and I missed hanging out with my Real Madrid friends." I replied looking at him, who had a huge smile on his face. Next to me, Fabio looked out the window in complete annoyance.

"So, Kaka...how has the team been while I've been gone."

"Well, the guys have all been grumpy and none of us wanted to go to any of the practices and games. But we still did. Fabio, though, was so cheerful that Pepe and Cris nearly killed him."

"Yup. It was so nice not to have to deal with you." Fabio finally spoke up. I moved so that I was next to him. See, I know what pisses him off and what makes him smile. So, I decided to piss him off.

"Fabio, admit it. It got boring not being able to make fun of anybody. You missed me a lot." I put my head on his shoulder. He growled and smirked, sensing where I was going with this.

"Okay, you want the truth or a lie?"

"The truth would be good Fabio. All you have to do is admit that you missed me." I challenged him to say something. He just smirked even more, if that's possible.

Fabio's POV

"Okay so here's the truth. I didn't miss you. But I did miss making fun of you. I mean, you're always so easy to make fun of and when you were gone I couldn't make of fun anybody. They all got really mad at me and told me to leave." I told Sheila putting my arm around her shoulder and made a circle on the back of her arm, that around my waist. I saw something flash in her eyes and quickly disappear. I shook it away and pulled my arm away from her.

Kaka looked at me from his rearview mirror. I looked away from him and into the distance outside my window. Sheila moved over the seat that she was sitting in before, behind her friend.

We got to the stadium 2 hours later and Jose was waiting for us all. He smiled at Sheila and of course looked at Kaka and I suspiously. The other guys, who Jose didn't send to the airport, ran to Sheila and put her on their shoulders. Suddenly, I saw someone who could ruin Sheila's homecoming party so I walked over to him without anyone seeing me walking away.

"What are you doing here? Sheila would freak if she saw you here." I tried to push the unwelcome guy away from the others.

"Fabio, we both know what I'm doing here." He turned to face the team. I noticed pure hatred flash in his eyes. I followed his sight to where Sheila was laughing at something that Iker had said. I couldn't stop myself from smiling at her expression. She looked so beautiful. No stop Fabio, she doesn't look beautiful. She looks ugly. I shook away the feelings.

"Sorry, Charles. You aren't getting her to come back to you." I sneered. He smirked at me.

"I have my ways. Don't worry, Fabio. She'll be out of your hair soon." He replied waving me away. Charles turned and walked away from where we were standing. I looked behind me after he had left the stadium to find Sheila looking at where Charles had disappeared. I could see the pain and anger mixing in her eyes. It was actually quite scary but amusing. I walked to where everyone else was talking and chatting.

"So Fabio, do you know Sheila from childhood?" One of her friends, a blonde-brunette haired, asked me. I think it was Teressa.

"No, we met at a Real Madrid-Athletico Madrid game 3 years ago when she was dating a news reporter." I replied, looking at Sheila.

"Oh yeah. His name was Charles. You boys know him?" A dark-haired friend of Sheila's asked looking at us. My friends shook their heads.

"Coentrao knows him though." Sheila looked at me. Just then, Jose came over to us wih his wife. She looked really good that day.

"Welcome back, my dear niece. Sheila, I forgot to mention earier that while I'm gone on vacation, I'm putting you, Iker, and Sergio are charge of the team. Boys, Sheila is the coach while I'm gone. Understood?" Jose asked us. We all nodded our heads in agreement and understanding. Sheila looked as if someone had just told her that she was going on a cruise away from me and Charles. Her friends all jumped around her, squealing and laughing. It looked as if they were all happy about it. Even the guys were happy about the new arrangements while Jose was away.

"Uncle, how long are you going to be away?" Sheila asked Jose. I knew why she was asking it.

"About 2 months. Why?"

"Oh I was just wondering." She shrugged. From the corner of her eye, she looked at me.
