Fading Back (Neymar Jr.)

Three: Reunited

(Munir's POV)

Ali's been acting strange ever since I took her to Camp Nou with me. I've wanted to ask her if anything was wrong but, with her being stubborn, she would just say no.

I was released from the hospital 4 days after my ankle injury happened.

Ali has been taking care of me, and trying to help me as much as possible. I keep telling her to take a break but she refuses every time I ask her.

I was watching tv in the living room while Ali was reading next to me. The doorbell rang.

"I'll get it babe" she said getting up.

(Ali's POV)

I walked to the door and answered it.

"Hey best friend".

I screamed and hugged Jess tightly. I haven't seen her in 4 years.

"How have you been? I haven't seen you in forever".

"Good, I've been taking care of Munir lately and he still takes care of me".

"What happened"?

"He broke his ankle during training the other day".

"Oh my god, is he okay"?

"Yeah, he's just pissed off he can't play and impress the coach".

"Oh".

We walked inside and into the living room.

"Munir, you remember Jess, right"?

"Of course. Ali talks about you all the time".

He struggled to get up, but managed to get up and hug her.

"I'm so sorry about your ankle" she said with a sad look on her face.

"It's okay, once this thing heals, I can play again".

I loved how he always looked at the bright side of things. It always made me smile to see him looking at the positive side of things of any situation.

He sat back down and elevated his ankle again.

"We'll be in the kicthen if you need anything babe".

"Okay".

I gave him a quick kiss and walked to the kitchen with Jess. We sat down at the kitchen counter.

"I need to tell you something" I say to Jess.

"What is it"?

"The other day, Munir took me to Camp Nou with him to meet all the players and I saw him again".

"What? Why would he do that"?

"I still haven't told him that me and Neymar used to date".

"Ali" she almost yelled.

"What? I'm scared of what he would think of me".

"You need to tell him".

"There's one more thing. While he was in the hospital, I had a dream about me and Neymar having s*x".

She was shocked. I could tell because she didn't say anything and started pacing around the kitchen.

"Ali, you need to forget him. He has forgot about you so you need to forget about him".

"I know. Why are you here exactly" i ask, changing the subject.

"I wanted to see you".

She sounded like she was lying.

"Are you lying to me"?

"No, I would never lie to you. Your my best friend".

I wanted to believe her, but something told me she was hiding something.

(Neymar's POV)

"Why can't I forget about her" i thought.

I was scrolling through the channels when I see her favorite show coming on. Criminal Minds.

She loved that show and would watch it all day if she could. She would watch it on Netflix all the time even though she'd already seen those episodes.

"Neymar, quit thinking about her. She cheated on you. FORGET HER".

I switched the tv off and went outside. I stuck my feet in the swimming pool and tried to think of anything besides Ali. It didn't work.

I went back inside and up to my room. I laid on the bed and closed my eyes.

Neymar's Dream

"Come on Ali".

"Where are we going"?

"You'll find out in a minute".

I dragged her into a room filled with blankets, pillows and a popcorn machine.

"Oh my god. Did you do all this" she asked.

"Only for you, babe".

She kissed me and laid down. I laid down next to her and wrapped my arms around her.

"What are we going to watch"?

"Anything you want".

"You got Criminal Minds"?

"Yes, I had to get Criminal Minds".

"Well play it".

I put the CD in and made some popcorn.

We watched the show and ate the popcorn.

While watching, she suddenly started kissing my neck.

"Baby, what are you doing"?

"You did this for me. I figured I would do something for you.

I laughed and pulled her on top of me.

We started kissing and touching each other.

We stopped and stared in each other's eyes.

"I love you".

"I love you too Ali".

"Promise me you'll never leave me".

"I promise".

I kissed her and we fell asleep shortly after.
