twenty three

"Thank you so much." I said as I shook Enrique's hand. The smile couldn't have been wiped off my face.

Yesterday I was sitting with the Brazilian squad, wearing Brazils colors and here I am today, wearing spains colors. I've received all the clothes that I'd wear everytime I'll be working.

It's just the simple spanish outfit all the players wear too. "Well, I welcome you to the squad then!" Enrique smiled and I stood up as soon as I saw that he wanted to hug me.

"Thank you, so so so much. I don't know what I would have done without you." I thank him and he smiled while shaking his head.

"It's nothing. It's my pleasure." He answered, we then said our goodbyes and Enrique gave me the key to my new room, which is dangerously close to Gavis.

Even tho we're fine right now, we still need to talk about what we are. And also, most important, what will happen after the World Cup.

Because we both have to return to Spain and work against eachother. Worst part is, that I have to work with my brother. Whom I really didn't want to see right now.

I made my way back to the elevator and went to Gavis room. As I opened the door I saw Pedri sitting on the bed and Gavi standing in front of him.

"Hey" Gavis face lit up as he saw me. Pedri zoned out and he still looked at the floor. "Did you sign the papers?" He asked and I nodded.

"I did, what's up here?" I quickly changed the topic. Pedri finally looked up at me, while he did that he also stood up.

"I talked to Rodrygo." Pedri came over to me and stood in front of me. I raised my eyebrows.

"About what?"

"He said that he told Tite because he only wanted the best for you. I don't know if I would have done the same but he said, he promises that he didn't want this." Pedri explained and I shook my head.

"He should have thought about that before he ran off to Tite. I don't care what he thinks because I know he couldn't care less. As long as he's happy, right?" I shrugged my shoulders.

"I'm here if you need anyone to talk." He hugged me quickly and then went over to the door. "I'll be in the lobby if anyone needs me." And then he closed the door.

I turned to look at Gavi but he was looking down on the floor. "Come here." He simply said. "I know we need to talk."

"Yeah" I nodded after walking to the bed and lying down on my back. He climbed over me on all fours he looked down at me.

"I wanna keep what's going on between us, I don't know what it is, but I wanna keep it." He lowered himself and placed his head on my chest. I opened my legs so that he could lie in between them.

"What will happen after the World Cup?" I began as I ran my fingers through his hair. "I'll go back to Madrid, even tho I might have already lost my job my apartment is there."

"Have you thought of moving to Barcelona?" He raised his head to look at me.

"I don't know if it's worth it. I mean right now I just wanna get as far away from Rodrygo as possible." I mumbled.

"You can always stay in my house as long as you've found something there. I have a guest room." Gavi mumbled.

"I'll think about it, I also need a job in Barcelona." I thought out loud.

"Yeah, I understand, I can talk to Xa-"

"I don't want you to get me a job, if I want that job, I'll go there myself. Thank you but you don't need to do anything for me." I cut him off.

"Okay, if you need any help, with anything. Just tell me." I smiled while still going through his hair.

"Mhm" I hummed.

"When do you have practice?" I asked while I stood up. "Can I take your hoodie?"

"Well, at 6 and yeah." He sat up and as soon as he said that I stole his hoodie.

"Actually, I need to wear this uniform right?" I looked at it in my bag and took off his hoodie again.

"Try it on, I wanna see you wearing it." He was sitting at the edge of the bed now, looking at me as I grabbed the whole set, including the shirt, pants and even socks and shoes.

"Here, hold this." I threw everything at him and he caught most of it with his hand. He put it down on his lap and looked at me.

I then took off my normal clothes and he looked at me carefully. I walked over to him to grab the uniform. He put his hands on my waist and since I was in underwear I felt his warm palms against my skin.

I took the shirt and pulled it over my head. He still kept his hands on my waist and as soon as I fixed my hair he pulled me down on his lap so that I was facing him.

"Gavi, we both have to get ready-" I said but he pulled me into a kiss. He ran his hands up to my face and caressed my cheeks with his thumbs.

"Sorry, I couldn't help it." He smiled as I pulled away.

"Sure" i smiled lightly and I grabbed my pants and socks and put them on. "So how do I look?" I spun around once for him to see.

"You look beautiful, as always." He smiled and then also gave me my shoes.

"Thank you" I smiled.

"Okay, let's go." He stood up and grabbed his bag quickly before heading to the door.

"Let's go" I repeated and followed him.
