More than friends, less than lovers. (A Neymar Jr. Fanfiction)

Chapter 8 - Talking

I didn’t knew what to do. I just froze. There, I just froze. I couldn’t move. A lot of things went trough my mind.He looked at me, worried that what he had done would ruin everything. 'I’m sorry’ He whispered and as he made a move to get up, I pulled him back.

I attached our lips back together and put my other leg on the other side of his leg so I was sitting on his lap. I grabbed the collar of his shirt as our kiss began to get more intense. After a few moments we pulled apart, breathing heavily. 'Meg’ He said while trying to catch his breath. 'I expected that you would be a good kisser, but that you could kiss like that ..’ I softly laughed as I closed my eyes for a minute. 'Shut up, Ney’ 

His forehead rested against mine for I don’t know how long. I bit on my lip as I let my hands travel down his abs. He softly moaned. 'What just happened?’ I smiled. 'We’re following our heart.’ He smirked. 'Always.’ I smiled as my hands laid on his stomach. 'Do you mind if I stay here?’ He asked while looking at my face looking for my reaction. I blushed and looked at my hands. 'I am angry if you’re going away. You can’t just leave after what happened. Or maybe you can’ He kept smiling while sliding under the covers. His hands were resting on my back as I laid my head on his chest.

I don’t know how long we laid like that. Minutes, hours?

'Does this change anything?’ I frowned when he asked that. 'Yeah’ I murmured. I wanted to lift up my head but he stroke my hair. 'Stay down, I like it when we lay like this.’ I smiled, not saying anything. I wanted to stay like this, forever. It was amazing. I don’t know why but it felt like a huge weight had been lift of me.

'Meg?’ He asked after some time passed. 'What are we?’ I smiled. 'People.’ His chest vibrated from his laughter. 'I know, silly. I mean, are we just friends?’ I bit on my lip. 'I don’t know, you want us to be just friends?’ I asked while thinking back about the conversation we had some time ago. The same conversation we had when we were young. The conversation we had not that long ago.

'Friends with benefits?’ I bit on my lip. 'Isn’t that disgusting?’ I sat up straight and looked at him. 'We’re close.’ I shrugged. 'That doesn’t change the fact that we’re still doing things while we’re not together.’ He smiled. 'Why aren’t we together than?’ 

I bit on my lip. That question made me speechless to be honest. 'Like .. A couple?’ He nodded. 'But we’re best friends.’ He shrugged while he sat up straight to. 'We are. Aren’t we like soulmates?’ I frowned. 'I don’t know.. I mean, us..’ He silenced me by putting his finger on my mouth. 'Don’t overthink. We have time.’

I woke up by a soft kiss. I smiled as I opened my eyes and was welcomed by a nice view. A shirtless Neymar to wake up to isn’t that bad, if I may say that. 'Goodmorning sunshine.’ I chuckled and breathed a kiss on his nose. 'Hi there.’ He smiled while he got up. 'What are we going to do today?’ I leaned back on my elbows as I watched him gather his clothes. 'You want to swim after we had breakfast?’ I smiled. 'Yes, that would be nice.’
'Did you sleep well?’ He nodded. 'Yes, I slept amazing. You?’ I grinned. 'I slept like a rose.’ He softly laughed. 'You looked like a rose.’ I blushed as we both looked at each other. 'You look like Neymar.’ We both began laughing. 'Way to ruin the moment.’ I grinned. 'Trying to ease the tension.’ He shook his head. 'Time for breakfast.’ I nodded, agreeing with what he said. 'Time for breakfast.’

'When are we going back home?’ He grinned while placing his sunglasses right on his nose. 'This is home.’ I smiled while putting sunblock on my hand. 'Yes, but our other home.. Silly’ He laid his hands behind his head and leaned back against the chair.
'In a week. They just wanted to see how our conditions were doing.’ I nodded as I applied the sunblock on my legs. 'Any date when we are coming back?’ He smirked while thinking about it. 'Date?’ I chuckled. 'You know what I mean.’ He nodded. 'Will you be coming with me for the World Cup?’ I nodded again. 'Ofcourse, I can’t miss that.’

'Can you please put some sunblock on my back?’ I caressed some hair back while holding the bottle of sunblock in my hand. 'Sure.’ He got up and walked over to my chair. 'Lay back, princess.’ I could’t help but crack a wide smile when he called me princess. Sure, he called me princess sometimes but it always made me smile.
I did as I was told and laid my hands above my head. A comfortable silence fell among us while he applied the sunblock on my back. 'I’m happy that you came with me.’ He softly said when he got up. 'I’m glad about that to’ 

Could you imagine that if I hadn't agreed with coming here, probably nothing would’ve happened between us? It’s weird to think that. But I like it this way, it’s different but I’m glad it happened anyway.
