Just Friends - Neymar Jr

46

"Melia," I moved her hair out of her face and watched as her eyes fluttered open before going wide, almost bulging out her head.
"Shit! Sorry I didn't mean-" she panicked, moving her head from my shoulder as I laughed and interrupted her.
"It's fine, they brought food but I didn't want it to go cold," I explained, passing her a tray and holding both drinks out to her.

She raised an eyebrow, "What one's yours?"
"Whatever one you don't pick," I answered, laughing.
"You could've got your own drink and me whatever, I wouldn't have minded," she sighed.

Why was she always annoyed? I thought it was a nice thing to do.

"Well I didn't so choose," I rolled my eyes, already done with her attitude.
She smiled shyly before taking the sprite, "Thank you."
"Yeah no problem," I turned my body away from her slightly, putting my headphones back in and starting to eat my food. She looked at me weirdly but I ignored it.

Amelia POV:
I didn't understand why he had such a problem. I just didn't want him to be making such an effort, it made me awkward him doing all these things for me and we were about to be seeing each other for a month straight.

His back was half on the arm rest separating us and half on his seat as he faced away from me. The man was a child.

I rolled my eyes, clicking the screen in front of me to see how much longer I'd have to endure this torture for. Five hours and forty seven minutes. Yay.

I pulled out my phone, remembering we had wifi and went through my notifications. Ant and Leo had both wished me a safe flight so I replied to them before opening Frisco's message.

Hey we haven't landed but have
wifi cos i'm super cool

Cool? Amelia? Nah

Piss off

Oh no! Whatever will I do?

Live your life forever feeling guilty

Indeed I will, I'm ever so sorry

As you should be

However you're too late, we're no
longer friends

What a shame

Do I sense sarcasm?

Maybe

Bitch

I put my phone in my pocket, smiling to myself.
"How is he? I'm happy for you guys," Neymar said, making me jump as I wondered how long he had been looking over my shoulder.

He was forcing a smile, making me pull a face, "What do you mean?"
"You're dating aren't you? How'd he ask you?" he asked, pretending to be interested.
"Hm, he flew me to France and we had this really fancy dinner by the Eiffel Tower. And then he got on one knee and told me how absolutely amazing I am, which I already knew but it was a nice gesture, before asking me to do him a massive favour and be his girlfriend," I said nodding as I improvised an entire story just to see his reaction.

He furrowed his eyebrows, "Paris?"
"Yeah I love Paris," I lied, nodding again.
"Since when?" he asked confused.
I looked at him weird, "Since always?"
"Oh."

I burst out laughing as he turned back around, not being able to contain myself anymore.
He looked at me quizzically, "What?"
"There's no way you actually fell for that," I wheezed.
"So you don't like Paris?"

"Oh my god," I put my head in my hands as I laughed, "I'm not dating Frisco, you idiot. Them photos were from when we hung out the other day but we're literally just friends, the media turned it into something it wasn't."
A smile cracked onto his face before he hid it by adjusting his hood on his jumper.

"You good?" I asked, smirking.
"Me and you used to be friends at some point, friends that shared the same bed and did couple things. You and Frisco are friends?" he spoke quietly as if he didn't want to hear my answer.

"That was different. I can have guy friends that aren't like that, you were the only exception since I had a fat crush on you since I was like twelve," I said laughing.
"Had or have?" he asked, making me roll my eyes.

"Had," I tired to keep my face straight after I said it but I knew he sensed the uncertainty behind it.
"Mhm," he smiled.
I rolled my eyes, "Yes, mhm."
"I'm not doubting you, I'm sure you only the speak the truth," he held his hands up and I laughed sarcastically.
"Ha ha ha, you're so funny Neymar. I really missed your dry humor."
"See, I knew you missed me!"
"Fuck off."
