"Good morning, amor." Pedri says as he rubs my back and I lift my head as I give him a quick peck.
"Good morning." I whisper as I get off the bed and I walk into the bathroom. I look at myself in the mirror and pull the neck of my sweatshirt down and I have little hickeys across my collar bones and the top of my chest as I rub the sleep out of my eyes. "I'm so tired." I mumble as I turn off the bathroom lights and I stand in the doorway as his arms are behind his head.
"Yeah well, it happens." He shrugs as he sits up.
I pull my hood over my head, trying to shield the light and Pedri tries not to smile. "I feel like I'm hungover. I didn't even drink anything." I scoff as I give up, just completely covering my eyes with my hands.
"You probably just need food in your system, and probably some water." He says as he gets off the bed and I move my hands as I squint.
"Fine, maybe you have a point, but I'm not happy about it." I say as I pull on the doorknob.
"Yep, still locked." He says as he unlocks it quickly before I laugh.
"Yeah, but thank god for locks. Made last night a lot smoother." I mumble before I go downstairs.
"Good morning." Ale says as I sit down at the table.
"You look like you were hit by a bus." Pablo smiles as I nod.
"I love the honesty, thank you." I say as I point at him and he nods picking up his fork. "What did you guys end up doing for dinner?" I ask as Pedri brings me a glass of water.
"Yeah, we just got pizza." Jude says as I shrug.
"Well, that works I suppose." I shrug as I look at Pedri and nudge my head to the fridge and he nods quickly as he grabs out some oats I made the day before. "Thank you." I whisper as he rubs my shoulder quickly before going to sit in his spot.
"How was your date last night?" Pablo asks as I raise my eyebrows slightly.
"Well we got dinner and then went to an art museum where Pedri got us kicked out, so pretty exciting I suppose." I say as I begin eating.
"Seems fulfilling." Jude says as he raises his eyebrows slightly.
"Mhmm." Pedri hums as Ansu comes downstairs and he goes to the fridge grabbing a protein drink and going to his spot.
Ale and Pablo exchange a look before they look at Ansu. "You alright?" Ale asks as he rubs Ansu's back for a second.
"Yeah just tired, I was kept up all night." He mumbles as he takes the lid off and I begin coughing as I turn, giving Pedri a look.
"Kept up all night? Interesting." Jude says as he looks at Pedri and then at me.
I purse my lips as I look at Ansu, "sorry." I mouth as he nods slightly trying to not laugh.
It takes Pablo awhile to register what Ansu says and he starts laughing as we all turn to look at him. "You alright?" Ale asks Pablo this time and Pablo is still laughing.
"Sorry, sorry, just took me a little bit to understand. They really listened to Jude though." He chuckles as he stands up going over to the sink as I roll my eyes.
"What does that even mean?" Ale says.
"You had to be there yesterday for the conversation. Something about locking themselves in a room, can't remember word for word." He snickers as I cover my face with my hands, sliding down in my seat.
"Yeah, I think we all see the picture." Pedri says as I open my fingers, looking through them before I uncover my face.
"Oh, that's what Ansu meant, how weird." Jude says as I smack his arm.
"You were waiting for this conversation to come up one day so you could play dumb." I mumble as he shrugs.
"Maybe, maybe not. I just don't have a dirty mind." He says sweetly as I shake my head. "That explains why it looks like you got hit by a bus, you were just rai-" he adds before I immediately cut him off.
"It's been lovely chatting, yeah? I feel like you guys have to get ready for training though." I say as I stand up quickly.
"We don't have training until 2." Ale corrects as I sigh.
"Great." I say with a fake smile as I grab my cup, filling it with juice this time before I go sit back down.
"Where's Gavi? It's awfully quiet." Pedri asks.
"He didn't stay here last night. Don't know when he'll be back." Ansu says as Pedri purses his lips.
"Hmm, good riddance." He shrugs as I try not to laugh.
The front door then opens and Gavi walks in, immediately taking off his shoes. "Morning!" He calls out before walking down the hallway, "night!" He adds as we all exchange looks.
"You spoke him into existence." Pablo says as he comes and sits back down in his spot. "You should speak a starting spot for me into existence as well." He shrugs as Jude bursts out laughing.
"Yeah, well he can't speak miracles into existence." Jude shrugs.
I frown as I look at Pablo, "don't let Jude be mean, just tune him out. I learned that about 8 years ago." I smile as Pablo nods.
"I don't listen to anything he says anyways." He shrugs as all of their phones buzz at the same time.
"Oh great, a gala." Ansu says as he is leaning forward looking at his phone.
"We all have a plus one, Jude want to go to the gala with me?" Pablo asks as Jude covers his mouth.
"You mean it? You really want me to go with you?" Jude asks shocked and Pablo nods.
"I couldn't think of anyone else I'd want there with me." He smiles as he reaches his arms out, taking Jude's hands.
I didn't know I was getting a show with breakfast. "I'd be honored." Jude says before he wipes a fake tear.
"Wow, okay, so cute and all, but-" I begin as Jude immediately shushes me.
"Pablo can pull Jude, that's it." Ansu laughs as I cross my arms.
"And Jude can pull Pablo and Gavi, he has a thing for Pablo's." Ale says as we stare at them.
"What can I say? I got taste." Jude shrugs as he lets go of Pablo's hands. "Pedri, who are you bringing?" He adds as I make a face.
"Umm I don't know, maybe my girlfriend? Sounds crazy, I know. Maybe it's a bit complicated for you to understand." Pedri says as Jude holds his hand up to his chin.
"Yeah, weird." He shrugs as I shake my head.
"So when is the gala?" I question as Ale picks up his phone.
"Tomorrow night at 7pm."
"I don't even know why we have one, we never do gala's or anything, what is Xavi doing?" Ansu sighs.
"Pretty sure we have another new sponsor, so probably has something to do with that. And maybe it's punishment for losing the game on Sunday." Pedri says as he crosses his arms.
"Too soon. Too soon." Ale shakes his head as he holds up his hand.
"Well, do you guys want to go shopping? Either tonight or now before training?" Ansu asks as he stands up.
"I'm game, and we may as well just go now." Jude says as we all stand up.
"Should we get Gavi?" Ansu asks as he points down to his door.
"He wants to sleep, so fuck him." Pedri smiles as I purse my lips.
"10 minutes and then we will leave." Ale calls out as he begins walking upstairs. Everyone else begins going to their rooms and Ansu is over by the sink and I turn around.
"I'm sorry for uh, last night, if you heard anything." I say as I purse my lips and he chuckles.
"It's okay Tate, Pedri's fault if you really think about it." He jokes as he comes over to me. "No worries though, just be quieter next time." He says as he pats my back quickly before going upstairs.
How embarrassing.
