As she dialed his number, Y/N anxiously tapped her foot on the pavement. The phone rang, and she waited, her frustration growing with each passing second. But Pablo was deep into his training session and didn't hear the call. After what felt like an eternity, he finally reached for his phone during a break and saw multiple missed calls from Y/N. Concerned, he immediately called her back.

"Hey amor, what's wrong?" Pablo asked as he leaned against his locker, his breath still heavy from the training.

Y/N's voice trembled with frustration. "Pablo, my car broke down in Girona, and I have this important meeting. Can you please pick me up?"

Pablo hesitated for a moment, glancing at his teammates who were heading towards the exit. He knew he had agreed to join them for a meal after training. "Amor, I really wish I could, but Xavi wants to talk to me about the match tomorrow. It's important," he lied.

Y/N's heart sank. She had hoped he would prioritize her just this once. "Pablo, please, I'm stuck here, and I don't know what to do. Can't you make an exception? I really need your help now…"

Pablo sighed, torn between his commitment to his girlfriend and his loyalty to his team. "I'm sorry bebe, but I have to go. Xavi is waiting. We'll talk later, okay? Te quiero muchísimo amor! "

Y/N's eyes welled up with tears. She felt abandoned and hurt. "Fine, go then." She hung up, her fingers trembling.

With no other choice, Y/N called a pickup truck and booked a taxi back to Barcelona. As she sat alone in the taxi, the distance between her and Pablo seemed greater than ever.

—————————————————————-

Y/N, feeling exhausted and hurt, arrived at Pablo’s house, hoping to find him there to explain why he hadn’t come to her rescue. She texted him, asking where he was, but her phone remained silent with no reply.

Then, she went upstairs for a refreshing shower. The warm water helped wash away the physical and emotional strains of the day. After her shower, she wrapped herself in a towel and lay down on Pablo’s bed, feeling utterly drained.

As she lay on his bed, she opened Instagram, then saw Pedri’s Instagram stories, tagging Pablo and their other teammates at a restaurant. Her heart sank as she checked the timestamp - it was 3 PM, the exact time when she had desperately called Pablo for help in Girona. She realized that Pablo had deliberately chosen to prioritize his time with friends over helping her in her time of need.

—————————————————————-

Then, Pablo came home and walked into the living room and tried to break the ice, saying, "Amorrr, I'm home." However, Y/N remained visibly upset and ignored him, her eyes focused on the Netflix screen.

Not one to give up easily, Pablo made another attempt to bridge the gap, gently asking, "Hey preciosa, how was your day?" Y/N responded with one word, "Tiring."

Pablo couldn't bear to see Y/N upset, so he affectionately said, "Awww, my poor baby," and leaned in to give her a kiss. But Y/N turned her head slightly, causing him to land the kiss on her cheek instead of her lips.

Confused and concerned, Pablo asked, "¿Qué pasa, amor?" Y/N sighed, replying, "Nada. I'm just tired."

Pablo, sensing that something was seriously wrong, decided to give her some space and said, "Okay, I'm gonna take a shower. I'll join you after this, okay?"

After his shower, Pablo couldn't stand the weight of the silence between them any longer. He walked downstairs and found Y/N on the couch, still not speaking to him. He laid his head on her chest and, with those familiar, sad, doe-like eyes, said, "Amor, why are you ignoring me?"

Pablo always had a way to make Y/N fold with his cute brown doe eyes but this time she was determined not to give in easily.

He couldn't bear to see her like this, so he gave it one more try, softly asking, "Please talk to me, bebe?"

Y/N's voice held a hint of frustration as she replied, "Why should I? You didn't even try to help me when I needed help"

Pablo felt a growing sense of desperation. He attempted to explain himself, "Bebe, please, understand. I was at training, and you know how busy it gets. I told you, right?"

But Y/N wasn't ready to let him off the hook. She said firmly, "Stop lying, Gavi. You were finished with your training when I called you."

Pablo stuttered, his excuses faltering, "Uh... well, I still had something to do after that."

Y/N seized the moment to confront him, "Like going out with your friends instead of helping your girlfriend who clearly needed help? I bet if your friend’s car broke down, you would immediately ditch training and rush to help them."

Pablo attempted to explain himself, saying, "Well, I can't just cancel on them, bebe. We made reservations, and I didn't want to just ditch them like that. You understand, right?"

Y/N's disappointment was palpable as she responded, "No? If you were in trouble, I would ditch anything or anyone just to help you because why? You're my priority, and I put you first. But sadly, I figured I'm not your priority now. Thanks for that."

Pablo, feeling defensive, argued, “Well, I can’t just bail on my friends, amor. What will they say? ‘Pablo is ditching us for his girlfriend.’ You know them.”

Y/N’s was extremely disappointed with his answer and replied, “So, you were worried about what they would say more than helping me, your girlfriend, who was stranded in another city and in trouble? Wow, okay.”

With a heavy heart, she got up and went to the bedroom, holding back her tears because she didn’t want Pablo to think she was too emotional or a crybaby.

That night, Pablo and Y/N both went to bed, but they couldn't sleep well. They were upset and didn't talk to each other. Y/N slept by turning her back from Pablo. He tried to hug her from the back because he loves spooning her but Y/N pushed his grip and he understood that she’s still mad at him.

It was 330 AM, both of them lay in bed, their backs turned to each other. Y/N closed her eyes, attempting to sleep, but it seemed impossible.

Every so often, she heard Pablo sighing loudly and felt him tugging at the blanket, leaving her with less and less of it to cover herself.

Y/N finally broke the silence, frustration in her voice. "Would you stop hogging the blanket, Pablo? I'm trying to sleep here."

Pablo sighed and replied, "Sorry, amor, it's just... I can't sleep knowing you're mad at me. I really want to hug you right now, and it's hard for me to sleep because i can’t stop thinking about us. I hate it when we’re not okay like this.”

Y/N sighed, still annoyed. But Pablo's request made her heart softened a bit as she was also dying to hug him. Truth was, she also couldn’t sleep and she knew hugging him would make her fall asleep in a second. Pablo then said, "Please amor? Can I please hug you? I know you're mad at me but you can continue being mad at me tomorrow..”

Y/N didn't respond with words, but she moved closer to Pablo, still not turning her back to face him. For Pablo, this gesture was a silent confirmation that Y/N allowed him to spoon and cuddle her.

Pablo immediately hugged Y/N tightly and said, "Thank you, amor." Y/N couldn't help but smile at how cute Pablo was being. However, she was still upset with him, so she didn't reply. She tried her best to hide her smile because she didn't want Pablo to know that she was actually smiling. She then held his hand, and soon they both fell asleep.

The next morning, Y/N's position shifted, as she lay her head on Pablo's chest while he had his arm around her waist. When Y/N woke up, she tried to gently move Pablo's hand because she needed to get up and take a shower to prepare for work.

Pablo grumbled sleepily, saying, "Urhhmm, no, stay with me."

Y/N replied, "I need to shower now, Pablo. I have to go to work, and don't forget, I'm still mad at you."

Pablo, not willing to let her go, held onto her tightly and said, "But……amor….. I want cuddles…..”

Y/N still trying to move Pablo’s hand, saying, "Your time is up now, and you have training in 1 hour. You should get up too."

Pablo couldn’t resist and asked, "Well…can I join you in the shower?"

Y/N, still upset with him, replied, "No, I'm mad at you."

Pablo clung to her even tighter and said, "Then I'm not letting you go."

Y/N winced slightly and relented, saying, "Ouch, Pablo. Vale, fineee, let's both get up and take a shower."

Pablo grinned and said, "Together?"

Y/N sighed and replied, "Yeah, whatever." as she rolled her eyes but then Pablo went and kissed her cheek making her giggle.

——————————————————————-

As they finished showering, Y/N went to the kitchen to make breakfast, and Pablo still in the bedroom fixing his hair. Later, he came downstairs and found Y/N preparing a yogurt bowl. He hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek, but Y/N was busy and told him, "Pablo, please, I'm busy right now." So, he sat down at the table, playing with his phone.

Once Y/N was done making breakfast, she handed it to him, and he said, "Thank you, preciosa." They both sat at the table, eating while on their phones. After a while, Pablo broke the silence, saying, "Amor, I'm really sorry for yesterday. I was a jerk, and I should've helped you, but I didn't. I'm truly sorry, amor."

Y/N, still focused on her yogurt, finally looked up and said, “I appreciate your apology, Pablo, but what happened yesterday really upset me.”

Pablo then gently held Y/N's chin and looked at her eyes with a deep sincerity and said, "I love you so much, amor, and it hurts to see you being so cold towards me. I miss my clingy baby, I miss your kisses. Please understand that even though I focus on my career sometimes, I love you no matter what. My career is important, but so are you, amor. I'm truly sorry for what happened yesterday, and I regret it deeply."

Y/N sighed and relented, saying, “Okay…fine, I forgive you. But you have to promise me that the next time I call for your help, you won’t bail on me like that.”

Pablo nodded earnestly and replied, “I promise, amor. If I ever bail on you, you can kick me or punish me however you want.”

Y/N chuckled and said, "Well, I'm going to make your friends kick you too!" They both shared a laugh.

Pablo then said, “Yes, bebé, I don’t mind because I probably deserve it.” He then reached out and gently held her hand and kissing it, continuing, “I’m truly sorry, okay, amor? I love you so much, cariño.”

Pedri stood there, his mind filled with regret. His thoughts raced as he reflected on Y/N's words. He couldn't shake the truth in what she said. Y/n was right. She was the one who had always been there for him. Through ups and downs. When he was sick, she stayed up all night taking care of him, making sure he was comfortable and getting better. She was there when he was injured, giving him the support he needed and always trying her best to help him recover faster. She was the only one who can put up with all of his nonsense and she never once complained.

“What have I done….? I have to fix this.” Pedri started to realize that he’s going to lose her forever because of what he did.

Pedri ran after Y/N and held her hand and said “Amor please wait, don’t go…”

Y/N was furious because Pedri called her "amor," and she responded, "You don't get to call me that after what you did. Don't you ever call me that. I'm not your 'amor.' Now let go of my hand!! I don’t want anything to do with you anymore! Go away you cheater!”

Pedri: Y/N, please, you don’t mean that right? just listen to me for a moment.

Y/N: Oh yes, I mean every word I say. What’s there left to say, Pedri? You hurt me! You fucked up!

Pedri: I know I fucked up, and I can’t even begin to apologize enough for how I treated you. It was unfair, and I should have trusted you. But.. please amor you have to understand…I…

Y/N: What? You trusted Isabela over me, Pedri! She manipulated the situation, and you fell for it, then you slept with her! NOW LET GO OF ME!!

Pedri: I was a fool, Y/N. I let my anger cloud my judgment, and I see that now. You mean everything to me, and I don’t want to lose you, please.. Sleeping with her was a mistake. I don’t know what got over me… Please, it didn’t mean anything to me. Please trust me..

Y/N: Huh? Trust you? You think I should trust you, Pedri? After what you did? You have got to be fucking kidding me right? You didn’t even trust me when I told you I didn’t do all those things yesterday! Now you’re asking me to trust you?FUCK YOU PEDRI! HOW CAN I TRUST YOU?! A MISTAKE MEANS YOU FORGETTING MY BIRTHDAY NOW THAT’S WHAT WE CALL A FUCKING MISTAKE. CHEATING AND SLEEPING WITH SOMEONE IS NOT A MISTAKE! IT’S A CHOICE!! YOU MADE THIS CHOICE!

Pedri: Please, Y/N, give me a chance to make this right. I didn’t cheat on you…I thought we were broken up already…

Y/N : So our relationship is going through a rough patch, and you immediately break up with me? And then you go and sleep with someone else? What makes you think that's okay? Huh. You’re unbelievable. Goodbye Pedri.

Y/N managed to slip away from Pedri's grip and walked toward the house's gate. Just as she was about to hop into the cab, Fer, who had just come back from the restaurant, noticed her teary-eyed face. He rushed out of his car and asked with concern, "Hey hey, Y/N, ¿Qué pasa? Why are you crying? Are you okay?"

Y/N, still upset, replied, "Hey, Fer, sorry... I'm not okay. Ask your brother." She then said goodbye to Fer and entered the cab, ready to leave.

Fer barged into the house, he was extremely upset. He confronted Pedri, "What the hell hermano? What did you do to Y/N? Why does she look like a wreck???"

Pedri stayed silent. But when Fer spotted Isabela coming down the stairs, wearing Pedri's shirt and collecting her things, he pieced it together. "No way….bro…you slept with Isabela, didn't you?"

Fer looked disappointed and said, "You messed up big time, bro. Y/N doesn't deserve this. I'm really disappointed in you."

Surprisingly, Pedri didn't try to catch Y/N. He didn't fight for her. He let her go because it seemed easier for him than trying to convince Y/N to forgive him. Deep down in Y/N's heart, she was hoping Pedri would go after her and fight for her, despite what he did.

There was a part of her that wanted him to fight for this relationship, to prove to her that she was worth fighting for. Sadly, he just let her go, and with that, she knew she was replaceable.. It shattered her heart to see how easily he let their relationship end.

She told herself that she wouldn't forgive him and decided to cut him off along with everyone around him. She truly wanted nothing to do with Pedri. It felt easier that way, deleting him from her life and acting like she never knew him. So, she went on every social media platform and blocked him, Fer, and everyone associated with Pedri. She went MIA for weeks, distancing herself from it all.

Pedri returned to Barcelona and entered his house, only to realize that all of Y/N's things were gone. It was as if she had never existed in his life. Y/N must have taken all her belongings and moved out of the house. On the coffee table, he saw the spare key that he had given her, which used to be adorned with a custom-made keychain from their vacation in Paris. But even the keychain was missing now. Pedri was heartbroken as he realized that Y/N had left him forever, and he knew there was nothing he could do to change it.

Still, Pedri attempted to call Y/N, but all he heard was a message saying that the number was no longer in service. He also tried searching for her on Instagram and Twitter, but it seemed that she had blocked him on all social media platforms. It was clear that Y/N had made a clean break from him and had no intention of keeping any contact.

————————————————————

As the weeks went by, Barcelona's team was dominating La Liga, and Pedri was in top form, contributing significantly and scoring goals. His performance seemed to reflect a happier and healthier version of himself.

Y/N caught glimpses of this on the news before quickly changing the channel. Her roommate asked, "Don't you miss him?" Y/N replied, "Why would I miss someone who treated me like shit? It's not worth it."

Her roommate said, "I'm sorry… but you know…he's Pedri…He's got so many fans, especially girls. I can't imagine how you're managing to move on from someone like him."

Y/N replied, "Well, it's easy when that “someone” cheated on you. Your perception of them completely changes. Besides, I have to move on. It’s the right thing to do when someone doesn’t treat you well, no matter who they are.”

Her roommate said, "Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry for asking you that. Anyway….do you wanna go to Ibiza next week? We can party and enjoy the whole week. It's time for you to get out there and enjoy being single instead of moping around here and crying every single night. Yeah, don't think I don't know that? I heard you crying, babe. Come on, let's go with me!"

Y/N hesitated, "Well….I'm not sure. I've got a lot of work to catch up on, and I've barely unpacked my stuff. Plus, I'm not really in the mood for a party right now…”

Y/N had just relocated to Sevilla. She didn't want to stay in the same city as Pedri, so she made the choice to leave her apartment in Barcelona. She requested a job transfer to Sevilla and was fortunate that her transfer request got approved. Without delay, she moved to Sevilla. That's when she met her roommate, who happened to be her high school best friend. They talked, and her friend offered her a place to stay since she was working in Sevilla too. Y/N was really thankful because everything worked out well, and at least she had someone she knew in the city, so she wouldn't be alone.

Her roommate still trying to persuade her, "Come on, just ask for a few days off from work, I'm sure they'll be fine, right? Just use your annual leave, please, please."

Y/N replied, "Well….I do have a lot of annual leave I haven't used, but I don't know. I'll think about it, okay? I'll let you know."

————————————————————

It was Pedri's day off, he chose to stay home and play video games with his brother and his friend, Gavi and Fer. After a few games, Gavi accidentally asked, "Hey, where's Y/N? I miss her making us churros or caramel flan. She used to cook for us when we played, right?" Fer nudged Gavi and said, "Come on, man, they're not together anymore! What's wrong with you?"

Gavi then exclaimed, "Oh, mierda! My bad, sorry, bro. I keep forgetting that you guys broke up." Pedri was upset, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he went upstairs to his room and sit on his bed. The truth is, he still misses her. He hadn't gone out partying or enjoyed himself since the break-up. All he did was go to the gym, train, and play his matches. It was all over the news how well Pedri was performing now, getting better and better. But he still felt empty without Y/N by his side. It was like he was missing a part of his life, and it hurts so bad.

He would occasionally scroll through his phone, looking at old pictures of him and Y/N together. He missed their late-night conversations, her laughter, and the way she used to surprise him with little acts of kindness. He remembered the times when they cooked together, made each other laugh, and shared their dreams. It was all gone now, and he couldn't help but regret how he had let things spiral out of control.

Pedri tried to distract himself with his football career, and he was excelling. But even on the field, there were moments when he wished Y/N was in the stands, cheering him on. He knew he had messed up a good thing, and the pain of that realization never left him.

Ferran arrived at Pedri’s house and found Gavi and Fer sitting on the couch. He asked, “Guys? where’s Pedri?”

Fer responded, “This cabron made him moody. He mentioned Y/N’s name. You know him, once he hears her name, he’s immediately not in the mood anymore. I don’t know why he’s acting like that. He’s the one who messed up.”

Ferran nodded. He said, “Hmmm…. I think we should do something. Maybe let’s bring him to a club? Let him enjoy a bit? It’s been a while since he’s been to a club.”

Gavi chimed in, “Well, I’m down, but I don’t know if Pedri is. You should go convince him.”

Ferran agreed, and he knew he needed to help Pedri take his mind off things, even if just for one night.

Ferran decided to go talk to Pedri. He found him in his room, looking at some old photos on his phone. Fer said, "Hey, hermano, I know things have been tough since the breakup, but maybe it's time to get out and have some fun. What do you say we hit a club tonight? Just like old times."

Pedri looked up, a bit surprised by Ferran’s suggestion. He hesitated for a moment but then nodded, "You know what, Fer, maybe you're right. A night out might do me some good. Let's do it."

Fer smiled, relieved to see Pedri willing to give it a try. “Cool, let’s go!”.

———————————————————

Y/N was scrolling through her Twitter feed when she suddenly came across some tweets about the Barca boys having a great time at a club. She decided to ignore the tweets and kept scrolling. However, one picture of Pedri caught her eye. The tweet said that Pedri was seen having a blast in a club, surrounded by some Instafamous girls. He had his arms around them and seemed to be thoroughly enjoying himself.

Once again, Y/N couldn't hold back her tears, but she quickly wiped them away. She decided to put her phone down and switch to her iPad to watch a movie instead, trying to distract herself from the painful picture she saw just now.

Then, Y/N's roommate came home and asked what she was watching. Y/N replied, "Oh, just some old rom-com movie, '10 Things I Hate About You.' I love this movie. Wanna join?" Her roommate agreed, saying, "Yeaaah, sureee I'll join you."

Then, Y/N hesitated for a moment and said, "Hey, about the Ibiza trip...on second thought, I think I wanna go." Her roommate was thrilled and exclaimed, "Yay! Perfect! We'll go next week."

———————————————————-

It was the La Liga final, Barcelona was set to face their rival, Real Madrid. It was quite a big match, so Pedri's family had flown in from Tenerife to support him. Pedri felt grateful because his family is so supportive of him.

Before the game, his mom and dad wished him good luck, and they shared a hug. Then, Pedri stepped onto the field. When the whistle blew, the game began.

In the 44th minute, Joao Felix scored, and the team celebrated their early lead. The match became intense in the second half when Jude Bellingham equalized with a goal, making it 1-1.

However, in the 87th minute, Joao Cancelo scored a crucial goal, securing Barcelona's victory as the "Campeon de la Liga." The stadium erupted in cheers as they celebrated their hard-fought triumph.

After winning the championship, all the Barcelona players went near the stands to thank their fans for their support and celebrate the victory with them. Pedri walked over to the stands, scanning the stadium in hopes of seeing Y/N at his big game. Unfortunately, he didn't spot her in the crowd.

But the celebrations continued as family and friends were allowed onto the pitch to celebrate with the players. They took pictures and videos together, capturing this special moment of victory.

Pedri took pictures with his teammates and then with his family. As he was celebrating, a woman poked his shoulder, and he turned around to see that it was Isabela. Pedri greeted her, saying, "Oh hey, Isabela! I didn't think I would see you here. You came all the way from Tenerife?"

Isabela replied “Hey, Pedri! I couldn't miss this important game of yours. It's a big moment for you, and I wanted to be here to support you! Anyway…congratulations on winning La Liga! You and the team played amazingly.

Pedri then replied “Thanks, Isabela. It's been a great season.”

They share a warm hug and continue chatting about the game and celebrations.

Y/n and her roommate were at the airport when the match was on. Y/n has always been a culér, watched the game at the airport while waiting for her flight. When Barcelona won, she couldn't help but feel happy, though she refrained from congratulating Pedri because she didn't want him to think she was still thinking about him. Instead, she let out a sigh, put her phone back in her pocket, and prepared to board her flight as her roommate urged her to go.

———————————————————

Back at Pedri’s home, his mother wanted to celebrate his big win and invited some of Pedri’s friends over, including Isabela. It was a great party, and everyone congratulated him, calling him "campeón." Pedri was having a good time until he tried to go upstairs to his room.

He overheard Isabela on her phone with her friends, saying, "Yeah, I'm at Pedro's home in Barcelona. She's not here anymore. There are no pictures of her in his room. They've broken up already. It's so easy to get rid of her. I just created a little conflict, and boom, he broke up with her. He didn't even trust her, can you believe it?" She then laughed.

Pedri was shocked when he heard what Isabela had said. At that moment, he knew he had messed up. Big time. He didn't trust Y/N, let alone saying hurtful things to her and even sleeping with Isabela, the one who had created all this conflict.

He was so mad that he confronted Isabela and said, "What the hell?! So it was you?!!! YOU WERE THE ONE WHO PUT PEANUT BUTTER IN FER'S DRINKS? YOU SAID Y/N SLAPPED YOU, BUT SHE DIDN'T TOUCH YOU AT ALL, RIGHT?!"

Isabela stammered in her response, saying, "Uh….Pedro, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt Fer, but you have to understand, I'm doing this because I love you. We've known each other forever, and you're supposed to be with me, not her. Please, I'm sorry…”

Pedri then said, "You're not my friend anymore. You don't get to choose who I can or cannot be with. You wrecked my relationship, and you made me let go of the person I love the most. What kind of person are you? What kind of friend would even do that? From now on, you don't know me, and I don't know you. Now, get out of my house and never show your face here again!"

Pedri went downstairs to find Fer and asked for his phone. Fer was confused and said, "Yo, hermano, what's wrong? Chill." Pedri replied urgently, "I need to find Y/N. I have to get her back. It wasn't her, Fer. She didn't do all those things. It was Isabela. I caught her, and she just admitted it to me just now. I messed up, bro. I need to find her back. I've hurt her so bad. Give me your phone, let me try to call her or DM her. Maybe she will reply if it's from your account."

Fer handed over his phone, and said, "Brooo, I told you Y/N didn't do all that stuff, but you were such a dick to her at the time."

With Fer's phone in hand, Pedri tried to find Y/N's account and called her using Fer's number. Sadly, there was no answer, and he couldn't find her online. It was clearly she had cut ties with everyone in his group because of how much he hurt her. It was that much that she didn’t want anything to do with anyone around him.

Pedri wanted to bail on his party, but Fer said he shouldn’t do that. It would be rude of him to just leave like that when everyone was there for him. Fer told him to find Y/N tomorrow, so he stayed until the party ended.

————————————————————-

The next day, Pedri went to Y/N's apartment only to find out someone else was living there. He asked for Y/N, and the new tenant said there was no girl by that name living there. Pedri then asked Y/N's old neighbor, and she said Y/N had moved out four weeks ago after coming back from vacation with him in Tenerife. She mentioned that Y/N looked miserable and asked what had happened between them.

Pedri: “Do you know where I can find Y/N or if she mentioned where she's gone?”

Neighbor: “I'm sorry, but I don't know. Y/N wasn't really talking to anyone when she left. She looked very sad, with puffy eyes, so I didn't think it was the right time to ask her about her plans.”

Pedri: “So, she really didn't say anything to anyone before leaving?”

Neighbor: “No, I'm afraid not. She seemed like she needed some space, and I didn't want to pry.”

Pedri: “I messed up big time, and I need to find her. She means everything to me.”

Neighbor: “I hope you can work things out. Maybe you could try reaching out to her friends or family? They might know where she went.”

Pedri: “Yeah, that's a good idea. Thanks for your help.”

Pedri was feeling desperate to find a way to reach out to Y/N. He knew that her few close friends had also blocked him, making it even harder to locate her. At this point, he felt like he had hit a dead end in his efforts to make amends and apologize for his mistakes. He wished he could turn back time and change the way he had handled things with Y/N.

Then, he had the courage to call Y/N's mom. He greeted her warmly and inquired about how she was doing. Y/N's mom, who had always liked Pedri, reciprocated the greetings and asked how he was holding up. Then, Pedri couldn't help but ask about Y/N.

Pedri: “Hi, it's been a while. How have you been?”

Y/N's Mom: “Oh, I've been alright, dear. How about you?”

Pedri: “Hanging in there. I, uh, was wondering about Y/N. Do you know where she is right now?”

Y/N's Mom: “Well, Pedri, I know you care about her, but Y/N has made it clear that she doesn't want anyone to know her whereabouts, especially you. She’s been through a tough time.”

Pedri: “I understand. I just want to apologize and make things right. But if she doesn't want me to know, I'll respect her wishes.”

Y/N's Mom: “That's thoughtful of you, Pedri. Just give her some time. Maybe someday, she'll be ready to talk.”

Pedri: “Yeah, maybe. Thanks for understanding, and please tell her I'm truly sorry.”

Y/N's Mom: I will, Pedri. Take care of yourself too.

Y/N's mom had always liked Pedri because she thought he was a good guy. She didn't know the details of what Pedri had done to Y/N, as Y/N didn't want her parents to hate him. So, Y/N simply told her parents that they had broken up. Just that.

——————————————————————

Meanwhile in Ibiza, Y/N had a wonderful time with her roommate. They spent their days at the beach, soaking up the sun, and listening to the calming ocean waves. Y/N really enjoyed these peaceful moments, reading a few books, and temporarily escaping from the stress and heartache she had experienced recently.

On the third day of their trip, Y/N's roommate suggested going to a local club for some nighttime fun. Y/N was excited about the idea and agreed. She began to prepare for the evening by choosing an outfit and applying some makeup. Everything seemed to be falling into place for a great night out.

However, just as Y/N was about to finish getting ready, she suddenly felt unwell. Her stomach started to churn uncomfortably, and a strong headache throbbed in her temples. It was as if her body was objecting to the idea of going out for a night of partying.

Y/N turned to her roommate and said, "I'm really sorry, but I don't think I can go out tonight. I suddenly feel unwell, and I think it might be because of the food I had earlier."

Her roommate, understanding and concerned, replied, "Oh no, that's not good. Don't worry about it, your health comes first. Just take some rest and drink some water. We can always go out another night."

Y/N however insisted, "You should go, seriously. You’re all dressed up and ready to go. You look amazing, and I don't want you to miss out because of me. I'll be fine here at the hotel."

Her roommate hesitated, asking once more, "Are you absolutely sure?"

Y/N nodded with confidence, "Yes, of course! I can handle myself. Go and enjoy!"

Her roommate smiled, leaned in, and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Alright, babe, take care. I'll see you later!"

Y/N's roommate left for the club, leaving Y/N alone in their hotel room. She immediately rushed to the bathroom and couldn't help but throw up, her condition worsening with each passing moment. After drinking some water, she lay down on her bed, feeling utterly drained.

As she lay there, something hit her.

She haven’t got her period this month. Her period was overdue by a week, and she hadn't experienced any signs of it arriving. Panic welled up inside her, and she whispered to herself, "Oh no...no no no no, fuck no….”

Y/N vividly remembered that her last time being with Pedri was a day before they went to Tenerife, precisely a month ago. Y/N felt more and more worried, thinking about the chance of being pregnant.

Y/N nodded, her eyes still filled with tears. "I get that, but why doesn't he trust me?" She sighed, continuing, "I would never do anything to hurt Fer or anyone in his family. I love Fer like he's my own brother. He even told me about his peanut allergy when we used to cook together. I would never forget something like that."

Rosy patted Y/N's back gently, reassuring her, "I know you wouldn't, cariño. But sometimes misunderstandings happen, and people's emotions get the best of them. Let's give Pedri some time to cool down, and then I'll talk to him and try to sort things out."

Rosy went back to the living room, where Pedri, Fer, and Isabela were sitting together. She approached Pedri and asked if she could talk to him alone.

Pedri, still upset, replied, “No, Mami, if you want to talk about her, I don’t want to talk about it.” Fer, concerned, chimed in, “Don’t you think you’re being a little harsh on her? People make mistakes, and she might not have intended any harm.” Pedri defended his stance, saying, “She doesn’t want to admit her fault and tried to blame someone else. How can I not be mad at her? All she needs to do is admit it, and I would forgive her.

Fer, replied, "You should talk to her, bro. It wasn't nice how you treated her. You shouted at her in front of all of us, and she must've felt really embarrassed."

Pedri, feeling angry, didn't listen to Fer's suggestion. He just went to his room and didn't try to talk to Y/N.

—————————————————

When it was getting dark, Y/N went to Pedri's room because she needed to get her clothes and take a shower. As she opened the door, she saw that Pedri was napping. He woke up when she came in, but he didn't want to look at her. So, he grunted and quickly covered his face with a blanket to avoid seeing her.

Y/N noticed Pedri's reaction, and even though it hurt her, she held back her tears. She quietly grabbed her clothes and left his room, heading back to the guest room with a heavy heart.

—————————————————————

The next day, Pedri went out with Isabela to hang out and explore the island without even telling Y/N. Confused and worried, Y/N texted him, asking where he was, but he didn't reply. It seemed like he was giving her the silent treatment.

When Pedri returned home with Isabela, Y/N approached him, feeling the need to have a private conversation. She gently took his hand and asked with concern.

Y/N: "Pedro, why are you treating me like this? You went out with her, and you didn't even let me know where you were. Please, Pedro, what's going on?"

Pedri replied with a simple “I don’t know” and then ignored Y/N, walking away and heading to the living room.

Isabela approached her with a malicious grin.

Isabela: “You poor thing, he doesn’t care about you now. Maybe it’s better for you to leave.”

Y/N wasn’t about to back down and confronted Isabela with a burning question.

Y/N: “It was you, wasn’t it? You’re the one who put the peanut in Fer’s drink, right?”

Isabela laughed dismissively.

Isabela: “You don’t have any proof. Besides, don’t you get it? Pedri won’t trust you. You’re just the ‘girlfriend.’ Don’t you know girlfriends come and go? It’s just a matter of time before he breaks up with you, and then who’s going to be by his side? Me. We’ve known each other for so long, and he trusts me more than you.”

Y/N:“You crazy bitch!! Why are you doing this? You won’t get away with it!”

Isabela, in an attempt to be dramatic, slapped herself and shouted, “OWWW!”

Pedri, hearing the scream, rushed over to them, concerned about what had just happened. Isabela, with her hand on her face, pretended to cry as she spoke to Pedri.

Isabela: (faking tears) "Pedro, your girlfriend slapped me because she wants me to admit that I put peanut in Fer's drink."

She was trying to manipulate the situation and turn it against Y/N.

Y/N: “What? No! I didn’t slap you! Are you crazy? When did I say that? Pedro, you have to trust me. I did not slap her at all. She did it by herself. I would never do something like that.”

Isabela kept on pretending to cry and said, "She told me to admit it. I told her I didn't do it, but she just made me say it. When I said no, she slapped me." She was trying to make it sound like Y/N had done something wrong.

Y/N, feeling frustrated by Isabela’s false story, confronted her.

Y/N: “What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you making up that story? Pedro, I swear to God I didn’t slap her at all!”

Pedri, still not convinced by Y/N’s words, shouted in frustration.

Pedri: “God, what is wrong with you, Y/N? Why did you slap my friend? First Fer, now Isabela? You’ve gone too far this time!”

Y/N, shocked and hurt by Pedri’s lack of trust, tried to hold back her tears as she spoke.

Y/N: “Oh God, Pedro, you actually believed her over me? I’m your girlfriend, I would never lie to you or even hurt the people you love. You know that. I told you I did nothing. It wasn’t me, and you didn’t trust me. You blatantly ignored me.”

Pedri: "It's Pedri."

Y/N: "Huh? Wh.. what? What do you mean?”

Pedri : "My name. You can call me Pedri. Only my family and close friends call me Pedro. For you, it's Pedri now."

Y/N: “Are you fucking kidding me right now? Seriously?Why are you doing this to me? After everything we’ve been through, and you still don’t trust me?”

Pedri: “Get out. Just get out. I don’t wanna see your face again. You went too far this time. You hurt my family and my friend. They were right about you. Who are we kidding with this relationship? We don’t even speak the same language. You don’t fit in here. And I don’t think you will. This is not your place. We are not meant to be together. Just get out.”

Y/N, shocked and in tears, choked out her response.

Y/N: "Wow. Ok. If that's how you really feel... then….okay."

She swiftly grabbed her sweater and, walked away from the house.

As soon as Y/N stepped out of the house, she totally broke down. She couldn’t stop crying. Tears streamed down her face as she stood there, feeling lost. She didn’t know where to go. She was not familiar with Canary Island. Her only wish was to return to Barcelona as soon as possible.

She took out her phone, hoping to find a flight back to Barcelona. Unfortunately, there were no available flights for the day. She felt even more stranded and lost in this unfamiliar place. So, she walked around aimlessly, looking very sad, like a lost puppy.

Meanwhile, Fer approached Pedri, deeply concerned.

Fer: “Hermano, what the fuck is wrong with you? Why did you do that? Are you out of your mind?! Why did you kick her out? This isn’t Barcelona. She doesn’t know this place. What if something happens to her?! Why are you being so harsh to her?!”

He was genuinely concerned for Y/N’s well-being and couldn’t comprehend Pedri’s actions.

Pedri: “Stay out of this, Fer. It’s none of your business. Nothing’s going to happen to her. She’s not a kid, she’s a grown woman. She’ll manage.”

Fer: “Suit yourself, bro. What you did was wrong. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

————————————————

Feeling tired and emotionally drained, Y/N decided to look for an Airbnb or hotel to stay in. She hoped to find a place where she could rest. After some searching, Y/N found a place and decided to check in. As soon as she entered her room, she jumped onto the bed and lay down, and started crying thinking about what Pedri had said to her. Tired from her tears, Y/N then eventually fell asleep.

———————————————————

Pedri sat in his room, he had his hand on his head, deep in thought about his recent actions. Then, there was a knock on the door, and Isabela asked, "Can I come in?"

Pedri agreed, “Uh.. yeah….sure, come in.” He then asked, “How’s your cheek? Are you okay now?”

Isabela: “Oh yeah, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me, how about you? Are you okay..?”

Pedri : “I don’t know… I just……”

Pedri seemed lost in his thoughts, and Isabela, seizing an opportunity, held his hand while trying to comfort him.

Isabela: "I told you, Pedro, she's not the one for you. You should've listened to me….”

She gently caressed his cheek as she spoke, trying to influence his feelings.

Pedri looked deeply into Isabela's eyes and began to express his doubts.

Pedri: "But... maybe I was too hard on her... What if Fer was right? What if something bad happens to her? She doesn't know this place..."

However, Isabela, wanting to change the subject, intervened.

Isabela: "Hey, hey, don't think too much..."

She leaned in and kissed him, hoping to distract him from his worries. Pedri became completely distracted, and he and Isabela started making out, and they got lost in the moment. They ended up sleeping together.

———————————————————

The next day, Y/N had to return to Pedri’s house to collect her stuff. She texted Fer, hoping he could help her, as she wished to avoid Pedri after their recent fight.

Y/N: “Hey, Fer. I need to get my stuff from Pedri’s place, but I really don’t want to run into him. Can you help me out?”

Fer, busy at his parents’ restaurant, regretfully replied:

Fer: “I wish I could, Y/N, but I’m swamped at the restaurant right now. Don’t worry, though. I’m pretty sure Pedro has cooled down by now. Just go and grab your things.”

As she entered Pedri’s room to gather her things, she was met with a shocking sight – Pedri and Isabela were together, naked in bed.

As Y/N stood in the doorway, her heart pounding and her breath catching in her throat, she couldn't help but blurt out her shock.

Y/N: "What the fuck?! Pedri?! Isabela?! What... How could you do this to me?! What the fuck Pedri?!"

Pedri and Isabela, caught off guard, quickly separated and scrambled to cover themselves.

Pedri, looking guilty, attempted to explain:

Pedri: "Y/N, I... I can explain.. It was.. I….”

Y/N's voice trembled with a mixture of anger and heartbreak as she confronted Pedri about what she had just witnessed.

Y/N: "What? Pedri?! YOU WHAT?! You don't even know what to say because you fucked her, right? Right after you broke up with me, you went and slept with her? Wow. I can't believe you. You made me look like the crazy one. You told me she was just one of your close friends, but then you went and fucked her. I hate you, Pedri.

Pedri : “I…. I can explain…..”

Y/N : “ Theres nothing to explain. You know… I have been nothing….nothing but supportive of you. I was there taking care of you during your bad days, injuries, and after one big fight, you decided to break up with me and sleep with another girl. I told you I didn't hurt anyone, and you didn't trust me. You did not fucking trust me at all. You shouted at me in front of them. You humiliated me.”

Tears welled up in Y/N's eyes as she continued, her voice breaking:

Y/N: "How could you do this to me? After everything… how could you? You know what? Fuck you,Pedri. I hate you so much...Goodbye."

Pedri's voice, filled with regret and desperation, called out to Y/N as she gathered her belongings and prepared to leave.

Pedri: "Y/N, wait... I..."

But Y/N didn't stop. She picked up her bag and walked out of the house.

They reached the Canary Islands, and their first day there went smoothly. They greeted everyone, and many people asked Pedri how his leg was and if he was feeling okay. Pedri reassured everyone, saying he's okay and in the process of recovering. He mentioned that he would be back in a few weeks, so there was no need to worry. Despite the inquiries, it had been a great but tiring day for them.

The next day, Pedri's mom, Rosy, said she's throwing a big barbecue in the evening for everyone. Y/N, who likes cooking, offered to help. She learned a lot about cooking back in Barcelona with Fer, Pedri's brother.

In the kitchen, Y/N, Rosy and Fer teamed up to prepare the foods for the BBQ. They cut, grilled, and seasoned everything just right. The house smelled delicious.

Meanwhile, Pedri was playing video games on the couch with his cousin, Adrian. Then, Isabela arrived and sat on the couch and talked to the boys. Y/N walked into the living room with a plate of homemade croquetas. She gave one to Pedri, and he took a bite. He said, "Gracias amor, this is so good. Maybe you can write down how to make it, and we can have it at home later." He said then kissed her.

Y/N smiled and said, "Sure, I'll try my best, but I still can’t beat your mom, Pedro. Her croquetas are the best."

Pedri agreed, "Hahah sii, she is a great cook, and so are you love." he winked at her. Isabela couldn't hide her jealousy. She didn't like how close Pedri and Y/N seemed, so she rolled her eyes. Isabela decided to join the video game fun, hoping to get Pedri's attention. She squeezed in between Pedri and his cousin and said, "I wanna play the game too."

Fer, looking a bit tired from the kitchen, overheard and asked Y/N to help. Fer said, "Hey Y/N, can you help cut a few more veggies in the kitchen, please? I wanna join them play the games, and my mom are at the supermarket with my dad picking up a few things since mom forgot to buy it yesterday.”

Y/N chuckled and agreed, heading back to the kitchen.

Isabela, with a devious plan in mind, approached Y/N in the kitchen and saw her alone and said, "Hey, can you make some avocado smoothies for the boys? Fer loves peanut butter in his, so add a lot of it, okay?"

Y/N hesitated, knowing Fer's peanut allergy, and asked, "Wait, isn't Fer allergic to peanuts?"

Isabela brushed it off and replied, "Nah, he loves it. Just put some in, okay?"

Reluctantly, Y/N made the smoothies but decided not to add any peanut butter, concerned for Fer's safety. Holding the tray with the drinks, she headed back to the living room to give them to the boys.

As she entered the room with the smoothies, Isabela intercepted Y/N in the hallway and said, "Let me bring the smoothies to the boys. You can go upstairs or something."

Y/N, feeling like she needed to use the bathroom anyway, said, "Oh, Okay," and went upstairs, unaware of Isabela's true intentions. Little did she know, Isabela went to the kitchen and added some peanut butter to Fer’s smoothie before returning to the living room and giving it to them.

As Isabela handed the smoothies to the boys, she smiled and said, "Y/N made these for you guys." They thanked her, and Fer took a sip of the smoothie. Almost immediately, he began to itch, and his throat tightened, making it difficult to breathe.

Panicking, Isabela pretended to be shocked and said, "Oh my gosh, what's wrong, Fer? Are you okay?"

Struggling to speak, Fer managed to ask, "Is there any peanut in this smoothie?"

Isabela pretended to be clueless and said, "I don't know, Y/N made it. She must've put it in. We need to get you to the hospital now!"

Isabela's deception was becoming clearer as Fer's condition worsened. Y/N, unaware of the situation, was upstairs, and the situation had taken a dangerous turn due to Isabela's actions.

When Y/N returned to the living room and saw Fer in distress, she asked, "What's happening? Why is Fer coughing? Is he okay?"

Pedri, furious and protective of his family, couldn't contain his anger. He shouted at Y/N, "What did you do?! Why did you put peanut butter in the smoothies? You could've killed my brother!!"

Y/N, shocked and hurt by Pedri's accusation, vehemently replied, "¿Qué? I did not put any peanut butter in it! You think I don't know that Fer is allergic? What are you talking about Pedro?"

Pedri's anger remained unwavering, and he said to Fer, "Let's go to the hospital," and asked for Isabela's help to support Fer, excluding Y/N from the situation, making her feel like an outsider.

Y/N, despite her hurt feelings caused by Pedri's words and actions, genuinely cared about Fer's well-being. She insisted, "Wait, please, let me come too. I'm really worried about Fer."

Pedri, still seething with anger, said, "No, you cannot. It’s better for you to stay here. You've done enough already."

Y/N stood her ground and said, "No, I'm coming whether you like it or not. Fer is my friend too, and I'm really worried about him."

Isabela, trying to worsen the situation, chimed in, "Y/N, if I were you, I'd listen to Pedro, You're just making things worse. Come on, let's go,Pedro.”

Pedri turned to his cousin Adrian and said, "Adrian, call everyone and let them know the barbecue is off. Tell them something came up. Also, inform my mom and dad that we're heading to the hospital because something happened to Fer." Y/N felt left out and ignored in this situation.

Everyone left her alone at home. Pedri and Isabela took Fer to the hospital in Pedri's car, and Adrian went to the store to meet Pedri's parents before they all went to the hospital to check on Fer. Y/N asked Adrian if she could go too, but he said he didn't think it was a good idea and left her at home. She felt really sad and upset, tears started falling because she was so worried about Fer. What hurt even more was that everyone treated her like an outsider, including her own boyfriend, making her feel unimportant and excluded.

———————————————————

A little while later, Pedri and Isabela came back home. Pedri needed a shower and to change his clothes . Y/N asked him how Fer was doing, but Pedri ignored her. Isabela looked at Y/N with a mean grin, making Y/N feel even more upset and left out.

Isabela said, "Pedro, you should change, and then we can have dinner, alright? You haven't eaten anything since this afternoon." Pedri replied, "Yeah, thanks, Isabela. Let me take a shower first, and then we can go out to eat something."

Pedri walked to the bedroom, and Y/N followed him. She said, "Why are you ignoring me? I didn't do it. I did not put the peanut in Fer's drink. Don't you trust me, Pedro? Why would I want to do something to harm your family? It doesn't make any sense. Look at me, I'm talking to you." Y/N grabbed Pedri’s arm, but he dropped her hand and said, "Leave me alone. I don't want to talk to you."

Pedri went to take a shower, and Y/N couldn't help but cry. When Pedri got out of the shower and changed, Y/N tried to console him by saying, "Don't ignore me, Pedro. Talk to me, please. This is not you." But Pedri continued to ignore her and left the room and went to Isabela downstairs, leaving Y/N alone in the room. Then, they both left.

As it approached midnight, Y/N tried to call and text Pedri, she sent him messages asking

"Are you coming home tonight?”

“Where are you? Are you okay?”

“How's Fer? Is he okay now?"

“Please answer me, I’m worried about you. Come home, Pedro”

“We should talk, don’t ignore me like this. Please…”

“Take care of yourself, don’t forget to drink some water okay? Te quiero mucho Pedro, know that I love you with all my heart. I’ll be here waiting for you. Come home, I miss you so much.”

Pedri saw all of her messages but didn't pick up the call and chose to ignore her. Seeing the blueticks on her texts, Y/N felt heartbroken and cried herself to sleep.

—————————————————

The next morning, Y/N woke up alone in bed. When she went downstairs, she saw Rosy cooking breakfast, Pedri's dad eating at the table. Rosy invited her, saying, "Come here, eat." Y/N asked, "Where is Pedri?" Rosy replied, "Oh, Pedri fell asleep on the couch. He took a shower this morning and went to the hospital to pick up Fer."

A few hours later, Pedri returned home with Fer and Isabella. Y/N, concerned about Fer's well-being, asked him, "Are you okay?"

Fer laughed and replied, "I'm okay, sis. Don't worry, I'm a strong man." Y/N said, "I'm so sorry, I hope you feel better now. You should rest, okay, Fer?"

Fer sat on the couch and Y/N turned to Pedri, asking, "Hey, are you okay? Your mom told me you slept on the couch last night." Pedri, clearly annoyed, replied, "What do you want, Y/N?"

She then asked, "Are you still mad at me?" Pedri responded firmly, "Of course, I'm mad at you. You hurt my brother!" Y/N defended herself, saying, "I told you I didn't do it. Why can't you trust me?" Pedro firmly stated, "Because you're the one who made the smoothies!"

Fer interjected, trying to ease the tension, "Guys, don't fight. I'm okay now. Please chill." Pedri, however, remained resolute, saying, "No. What she did was unacceptable, and she doesn't want to admit it. She's so stubborn and won't admit her own fault."

Y/N defended herself, saying, "I know Fer is allergic to peanuts. He told me a long time ago. What do you think, I'm stupid?" She continued, "Isabella told me to put the peanut butter, but I didn't, because I know about his allergy."

Isabella, in response, tried to act innocent, saying, "What are you talking about, sweetie? I never said anything. Don't try to blame it on me." Tensions were running high as the truth seemed elusive.

Pedri was furious, and he shouted at her, "What, now you're gonna put the blame on Isabela? She's been friends with us since we were kids! She knows about Fer and me more than you!" Y/N, overwhelmed with emotion, couldn't hold back her tears any longer and said, "You know I would never lie to you. I'm telling you the truth, Pedro. It wasn't me."

Rosy stepped in, saying, “Vale, vale, that’s enough. You guys need some time to cool down. Let’s go, Y/N,” as she led her to another room to try to calm her down. Y/N realized she had messed up by implying that Isabela had told her to put the peanut butter. Pedro’s long history with Isabela made him trust her more than Y/N, who had only been with him for a year. Of course he would side with her. Now, she felt like she was in the wrong, appearing as the jealous one, and it made her seem crazy and bad in this situation.

Y/N: "I've been thinking... Maybe it's time for me to find a new place to live. Mateo is growing up, and he needs stability. I think it's better for him if we have our own separate spaces."

Pedri's expression changed, a mix of resistance and understanding.

Pedri: "Y/N, I know we're not together anymore, but I still want to be a part of Mateo's life as much as possible."

Y/N: "And you will be, Pedri. This isn't about keeping you away. It's about creating a healthy environment for Mateo. We can still co-parent, but he deserves a consistent home."

Pedri sighed, his gaze shifting to the floor as he considered Y/N's words.

Pedri: "I just... I can't help but feel like I'm losing even more of what we had."

Y/N reached out and placed a comforting hand on Pedri's arm.

Y/N: "I understand that it's difficult. But we both want what's best for Mateo, right? This isn't about us, it's about him."

Pedri looked up, meeting Y/N's eyes. There was a mixture of emotions playing across his face - sadness, nostalgia, and a hint of resignation.

Pedri: "You're right, Y/N. It's just hard to let go."

Y/N: "It's not about letting go completely, Pedri. We'll always be connected through Mateo. This is just about giving him a solid foundation."

Pedri: "But why though? I don't believe Mateo would be happy in having to split his time between two homes, spending one week here and the next at yours. It's exhausting. He’s happy here. Why would you want him to go through that?”

Y/N: "Pedri, the reason I think it's important for us to have separate spaces is because... I don't want Mateo to see you enjoying a lifestyle that involves partying and not taking responsibilities seriously. I want him to grow up in an environment that values commitment and stability. You told me that you don’t party much, but…”

Pedri’s eyes darted away momentarily, his defensive instinct kicking in.

Pedri: “Look, Y/N, I might go out and party occasionally, but it’s not like it’s a constant thing. It’s just a way to release the stress from my work, I’m still young I need to enjoy my life too.”

Y/N felt a mix of frustration and hurt, the weight of unspoken disappointment crashing over her.

Y/N: “Pedri, I’m not naive. I know what’s really happening. You might say it’s occasional, but it’s becoming more frequent than you let on. It’s not just about you anymore. This is why I think it’s best for me and Mateo to live in another place. You want to enjoy your life right? Go on, we won’t hold your back.”

Pedri’s expression turned from defensive to conflicted, as if a mix of guilt and defiance was battling within him.

Pedri: “Look, okay fine yes I party a lot but I’m not neglecting Mateo, Y/N. I still spend time with him.”

Y/N’s voice trembled with a mixture of sadness and determination.

Y/N: “It’s not just about physically being there, Pedri. It’s about the example you’re setting for him. I don’t want our son to see partying as a priority over responsibilities.”

Pedri’s brows furrowed, his frustration evident in his tone.

Pedri: “You’re making it sound worse than it is. I’m not a bad father just because I enjoy my time.”

Y/N’s eyes welled with tears, her voice cracking with emotion.

Y/N: “Pedri, this isn’t about attacking you. It’s about what’s best for Mateo. I can’t let him grow up thinking that this is okay.”

The room was filled with tension, the unspoken pain between them tangible.

Pedri: “I never meant for it to come to this point, Y/N.”

Y/N: “I’ve tried to make this work, Pedri. But I can’t keep pretending like everything is okay when it’s not. I won’t let Mateo be influenced by this.”

Pedri looked at Mateo playing in the living room, a mixture of emotions coursing through him. He knew Y/N was right, but admitting it was like acknowledging his own shortcomings.

Pedri: “I need to figure this out, Y/N. I don’t want to lose you or Mateo.”

Y/N: “This is for Mateo's sake, I think it's best if we each create a positive and nurturing environment."

Pedri: "Bueno…you're right, Y/N. I want to be the best influence for Mateo, even if it means making some changes."

Y/N: "Thank you, Pedri. I know this isn't easy for either of us, but I believe it's the right step."

In the days that followed, Y/N found a new place to live, creating a comfortable home for herself and Mateo. The transition wasn't without its challenges, but both Y/N and Pedri remained committed to co-parenting their son with love and care.

———————————————————————

One evening, as the sun began to set, Pedri was missing Mateo terribly and yearned to hear his laughter once more.

Dialing Y/N's number, he took a deep breath, hoping for a positive response. After a few rings, Y/N's voice greeted him on the other end.

Y/N: "Hello?"

Pedri: "Hey, Y/N. It's me, Pedri. I hope I'm not disturbing you."

Y/N: "Oh, hey, Pedri. No, you're not disturbing us. We're just out for a coffee."

Pedri's heart skipped a beat. The image of Y/N and Mateo, sitting in a cozy corner of a cafe, sharing moments together, tugged at his emotions.

Pedri: "Is Mateo with you?"

Y/N: "Yes, he's right here. We're at Starbucks."

Pedri hesitated, his voice gentle yet determined.

Pedri: "Is anyone else with you?"

Y/N paused for a moment, then decided to be honest.

Y/N: "Actually, I'm here with João."

Pedri's heart sank slightly, but he tried to hide his disappointment.

Pedri: "Oh, I see. Well, I miss him a lot. Do you think it's okay if I come to pick him up? I just want to spend some time with him."

Y/N glanced at Mateo, who was engrossed in his coloring book. She understood that Pedri missed his son and wanted to spend time with him.

Y/N: "Sure, Pedri. He'd be thrilled to see you. We'll be here."

Pedri: "Thank you, Y/N. I appreciate it."

Y/N handed the phone to Mateo, her smile warm as she whispered, "Papi called and wants to talk with you."

Mateo's eyes lit up, his small hand reaching out for the phone.

Mateo: "Hola, papi!"

Pedri's voice softened at the sound of his son's greeting.

Pedri: "Hola, Mateo! How are you, champ?"

Mateo was really excited and talked a lot, telling stories about his day in a way that only kids can. Pedri listened closely, feeling happy and he couldn't stop smiling at how enthusiastically Mateo talked about things.

Pedri: "Mateo, how about this? Would you like to come to papi's home and sleep with papi tonight?"

Mateo: "Yes, papi! I want to!"

Pedri's heart swelled with happiness at his son's response.

Pedri: "Great! I'll be there to pick you up soon. We'll have a fun night together, okay?"

Mateo's reply was a resounding "Yes, papi!" that filled Pedri's heart with warmth.

Y/N took the phone from Mateo, a smile lighting up her face as she addressed Pedri.

Y/N: "Pedri, Mateo is really excited to spend some time with you. So you’re going to come here and pick him up?"

Pedri: "Of course, Y/N. I'll be there soon."

Around 20 minutes later, Pedri arrived at Starbucks. As he walked in, his eyes scanned the cafe, searching for Mateo and Y/N. What he found took him slightly off-guard: Y/N was laughing, deep in conversation with João. Watching them being close made Pedri feel a bit jealous, and it reminded him of all the complicated things that had happened between them in the past.

Pedri pushed aside his feelings and focused on what mattered most—his son. He approached the table with a friendly nod towards João.

Pedri: “Hey, bro.”

Y/N’s smile widened as she stood up, João following her lead.

Y/N: “Hi, Pedri. Mateo can’t wait to see you.”

Pedri greeted Y/N with a warm smile.

Pedri: “Hey, Y/N. I’ve missed him.”

João, sensing the situation, offered a friendly nod in acknowledgment.

João: “Hey, nice to see you again.”

Pedri: “You too.”

Y/N: “João has been keeping us company while we waited. He’s really good with Mateo.”

Pedri managed a smile, despite the conflicting emotions swirling within him.

Pedri: “That’s great to hear. Thanks for being there, man.”

João nodded, a friendly gesture that indicated his willingness to support Mateo’s happiness.

João: “No problem. Mateo’s a cool kid.”

Pedri turned his attention to Mateo, who was practically bouncing with excitement.

Pedri: “Hey, champ! Are you ready to have a fun night with papi?”

Mateo’s face lit up with pure joy.

Mateo: “Yes, papi! Let’s go!”

Y/N: “Hey Pedri, actually, João and I are headed out for dinner now. I’ll drop off Mateo’s stuff later tonight. Is that okay?”

Pedri nodded, gratitude in his eyes.

Pedri: “Of course, Y/N. You can drop his stuff later, don’t worry”

Y/N: “Alright. Have a wonderful evening, you two!”

—————————————————

Later that night, heavy rain pouring from the sky, drenching everything in its path. Y/N, arrived at Pedri's house to drop off Mateo's belongings. However, she found herself thoroughly soaked as she stood at Pedri's doorstep.

With a sigh, she rang the doorbell, holding Mateo's things in one hand and trying to shield herself from the rain with the other. Pedri and Mateo opened the door, and their expressions quickly shifted from surprise to concern when they saw Y/N's shivering form.

Pedri's voice was laced with worry as he spoke.

Pedri: "Y/N, are you okay? You're completely soaked!"

Y/N: "Yeah, I’m fine..I just…. I didn't have an umbrella. I'm sorry."

Without hesitation, Pedri stepped aside and gestured for her to come in.

Pedri: "Come inside quickly. You're freezing."

Mateo's eyes widened as he saw Y/N's condition.

Mateo: "Mami, you're all wet!"

Y/N chuckled softly, even through her shivers.

Y/N: "Yes, buddy, I am. But it's nothing a warm shower won't fix."

Pedri grabbed a towel and handed it to Y/N, concern etched on his face.

Pedri: "Here, dry yourself off."

Pedri glanced at Y/N with concern, the sound of raindrops against the windows creating a soothing backdrop.

Pedri: "You know, Y/N, the rain is really coming down hard. Are you sure you don't want to stay a while? You could wait until it stops."

Y/N: "Thank you, Pedri, but I think I'll be fine. I'll just head home and take a warm shower."

Despite her words, Pedri's worry lingered.

Pedri: "Are you sure? It's pouring out there, and you're still shivering a bit."

Y/N chuckled softly, touched by his persistence.

Y/N: "I promise I'll be okay. A warm shower will do wonders."

Mateo chimed in, his eyes wide.

Mateo: "Mami, you should stay. Papi's right."

Y/N laughed softly, her heart warmed by Mateo's concern.

Y/N: "Thank you, sweetheart. You're both so thoughtful."

Pedri's expression was a mix of concern and determination.

Pedri: "Listen, Y/N, I insist. Please stay here until the rain calms down. I don't want you to get sick."

Y/N: "Alright, alright. You win. I'll stay a bit longer."

Pedri: "Good. I'll make some tea. It'll help warm you up."

As Pedri headed to the kitchen, Y/N exchanged a knowing look with Mateo, who grinned mischievously.

Mateo: "See, Mami? Papi always knows best."

Y/N ruffled Mateo's hair affectionately.

Y/N: "Yes, he certainly does."

Pedri: “Y/N, you’re so wet from the rain. You should take a shower and change into something dry. You can wear my clothes.”

Y/N chuckled softly, appreciating his concern.

Y/N: “It’s really alright, Pedri. I don’t want to trouble you.”

Pedri: “Please, Y/N. Just change into something dry. Your clothes are wet, and I don’t want you to catch a cold.”

Y/N teased playfully, a twinkle in her eyes.

Y/N: “Well, even if I wanted to, you only have skinny pants here, and you know damn well I don’t fit into those.”

Pedri laughed.

Pedri: “What? Noo, I have other pants too. In fact, I have sweatpants. You can wear those.”

Y/N: “ Well, alright, fine. But only because you’re so insistent.”

Pedri handed her a cup of tea.

Pedri: “Here, drink this tea first. I’ll go find the sweatpants for you.”

Y/N accepted the tea with a smile.

Y/N: “Thank you, Pedri. You’re too kind.”

As Pedri left to fetch the sweatpants, Y/N took a sip of the warm tea. Then, Pedri returned to the room, holding a pair of sweatshirt and sweatpants. He grinned as he approached Mateo, handing him the clothes.

Pedri: "Hey, buddy, can you do me a favor? Give these to Mami."

Mateo's eyes widened in excitement as he took the clothes from Pedri's hands.

Mateo: "Sure, papi!"

With a playful bounce in his step, Mateo scampered over to Y/N, his small hands clutching the clothes.

Mateo: "Mami, look what papi got for you!"

Y/N: "Oh, sweetie, did papi get these for me?"

Mateo nodded enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling.

Mateo: "Yes! He said you should change into these, Mami."

Y/N chuckled softly, her heart warmed by the sight of Mateo's eagerness to help.

Y/N: "Well, it looks like papi really wants me to change, huh?"

Mateo nodded, a mischievous grin on his face.

Mateo: "Yes, Mami! He said you'll feel better."

Y/N looked at Pedri, who was watching them with a smile that showed he found it cute and caring.

Y/N: "Alright, Mateo. Tell papi thank you for these and I'll change right now.

Mateo's face lit up with excitement.

Mateo: "Okay, Mami!"

Mateo had a big, happy smile and ran back to where Pedri was sitting. He told him the message with lots of excitement, just like how kids do when they're really, really excited.

Pedri’s eyes lit up as he noticed Y/N’s return wearing his clothes. He couldn’t help but admire how the clothes suited her.

Pedri: “Well, I must say, you make those sweatpants and sweatshirt look better than I ever could.”

Y/N laughed softly, charmed by his playful compliment.

Y/N: “Oh, really? You’re just saying that.”

Pedri leaned back on the couch, a grin tugging at his lips.

Pedri: “No, I mean it. It’s not every day I see someone who can pull off comfy clothes with such style.”

Y/N’s cheeks warmed slightly at his words, her heart fluttering at his flirtatious tone.

Y/N: “Flattery will get you everywhere, won’t it?”

Pedri chuckled, his gaze lingering on her.

Pedri: “I’m just stating the truth. You look great.”

Mateo, ever observant, chimed in with a grin.

Mateo: “Mami, you look like papi now!”

Y/N laughed, leaning down to ruffle Mateo’s hair.

Y/N: “You think so, buddy?”

Mateo nodded enthusiastically.

Mateo: “Yes! You’re both wearing the same clothes!”

Pedri joined in the playful banter, his eyes twinkling.

Pedri: “That’s right, Mateo. Your Mami and I are matching.”

Y/N chuckled, enjoying the lightheartedness of the moment.

Y/N: “Well, I have to admit, it’s a pretty comfy outfit.”

Pedri grinned, his voice taking on a teasing note.

Pedri: “Maybe you should keep it. I’ll have to find new clothes.”

Y/N : “Well really? thank you, I appreciate this”

Pedri glanced at her, his voice gentle.

Pedri: "I hope you're feeling better now."

Y/N nodded, her expression grateful.

Y/N: "Much better, thank you."

Mateo looked at them, his innocent eyes wide.

Mateo: "Mami, did you get wet because of the rain?"

Y/N smiled warmly at her son.

Y/N: "Yes, sweetheart. I got caught in the rain."

Mateo's concern was evident as he looked at her.

Mateo: "You should be careful next time, okay?"

Y/N chuckled softly, touched by his worry.

Y/N: "I will, Mateo. Thank you for caring."

The three of them sat together, wrapped in the warmth of each other’s company and the cozy atmosphere of the room.

Pedri: “So, what movie should we watch, Mateo?”

Mateo’s eyes lit up as he thought about his favorite movies.

Mateo: “How about Hotel Tansvania, papi?”

Pedri chuckled, knowing exactly which movie Mateo was referring to.

Pedri: “You want to watch the one with the friendly monsters, right?”

Mateo nodded eagerly.

Mateo: “Yes, that one! Tans….Vania!!”

Y/N couldn’t help but smile at their interaction. It was heartwarming to see the ease with which Pedri and Mateo connected.

Y/N: “Sounds like a great choice, Mateo.”

Pedri took the remote control and began the movie. The funny and cute characters from Hotel Transylvania appeared on the screen, and Mateo was really focused on it. Y/N and Pedri exchanged looks and smiled as they saw how much Mateo was enjoying the characters' funny actions.

As the movie progressed, the rain outside began to subside, leaving behind a calm and peaceful ambiance. The room was filled with the soft glow of the television and the comforting aroma of the tea.

Y/N leaned back, feeling really relaxed. Even though the evening started with rain, she was happy about how things turned out, giving them a chance to enjoy this cozy time together as a family.

Pedri glanced at Y/N, his voice gentle.

Pedri: “I’m glad you stayed, Y/N.”

Y/N smiled warmly.

Y/N: “Me too, Pedri. This has been really nice.”

Mateo, sensing the harmony in the room, leaned against Y/N, his small hand finding hers.

Mateo: “I like when we’re all together.”

Pedri : “Me too, baby, Papi loves being together with you and Mami right here”

As the movie continued to captivate Mateo's attention, Y/N saw an opportunity to slip away and make some popcorn in the kitchen. She stood up quietly and glanced at Pedri, who seemed to be engrossed in the movie as well. With a smile, she mouthed "popcorn" to him before making her way to the kitchen.

Pedri, noticing Y/N's departure, felt a spark of curiosity. He decided to follow her, wanting to enjoy a brief moment alone with her away from Mateo's watchful eyes.

In the kitchen, Y/N began to prepare the popcorn, the sound of kernels popping in the microwave. The warm, buttery aroma filled the air, creating a cozy atmosphere. Just as she was about to take the popcorn out, she sensed Pedri's presence behind her.

Pedri leaned against the doorway, a playful glint in his eyes.

Pedri: "Ah, the popcorn maker is hard at work."

Y/N turned around, a smile tugging at her lips.

Y/N: "Well, someone's got to keep the movie snacks coming."

Pedri grinned, stepping closer.

Pedri: "And what about the chef herself? You need a taste tester?"

Y/N chuckled, her gaze meeting his.

Y/N: "I think I can handle that part."

Pedri continued to be playful as he got closer to her, his voice sounding a bit teasing.

Pedri: "Hmm, but I have a more important question."

Y/N raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

Y/N: "Oh, and what's that?"

Pedri's expression turned mischievous.

Pedri: "No bra, huh?"

Y/N's cheeks flushed with a mixture of surprise and embarrassment, and she playfully swatted his arm.

Y/N: "Pedri, stop!"

Pedri burst into laughter,

Pedri: "Got you there, didn't I?"

Y/N shook her head, a grin forming despite her embarrassment.

Y/N: "You're unbelievable."

Pedri's laughter subsided, leaving a warm smile on his face.

Pedri: "I couldn't resist. It's not often I catch you off guard."

Y/N crossed her arms playfully, her tone light.

Y/N: "Well, consider your mission accomplished."

Pedri's gaze softened as he looked at her, his voice sincere.

Pedri: "You know, Y/N, even after everything, it's moments like these that make me realize how much I miss our banter."

Y/N's heart warmed at his words, a mixture of nostalgia and fondness sweeping over her.

Y/N: "I've missed it too, Pedri."

As the scent of freshly popped popcorn filled the air, Y/N and Pedri found themselves drawn into a moment of quiet intimacy. Pedri's eyes held a mixture of longing and vulnerability, and in that fleeting instant, he leaned in, his intentions clear.

Pedri's lips were mere inches away from Y/N's, but before the moment could fully materialize, she gently placed a hand on his chest, stopping him in his tracks.

Y/N's voice was soft, but determined.

Y/N: "Pedri, please... no."

Pedri's expression shifted from anticipation to a mixture of surprise and understanding. He took a step back, respecting her boundaries, though a hint of disappointment lingered in his gaze.

Pedri: "Y/N, I..."

Y/N held up her hand, her gaze unwavering.

Y/N: "Pedri, we can't do this. Not now."

Pedri's brows furrowed slightly as he tried to convey his feelings.

Pedri: "But why, Y/N? Why can't we try to..."

Y/N's voice remained steady, even as her emotions threatened to overwhelm her.

Y/N: "I know you want to, Pedri, but we can't afford to forget what happened before. We can't risk failing again and breaking Mateo's heart."

Pedri sighed, a mix of frustration and understanding evident in his expression.

Pedri: "I don't want to hurt Mateo, I promise you that. But can't we at least consider..."

Y/N shook her head, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears.

Y/N: "Pedri, I'm not saying this because I want to hurt you. I'm saying it because I care about Mateo too much to put him through another disappointment. We have to be responsible, for his sake."

Pedri's gaze softened as he watched the conflict in Y/N's eyes.

Pedri: "Y/N, I care about Mateo just as much as you do. And I care about you."

Y/N's heart ached at his words, but she remained resolute.

Y/N: "I know you do, Pedri. But we can't let our feelings blind us to the reality of our situation. We've tried before, and it didn't work out. I don't want Mateo to experience that pain again."

Pedri nodded, his shoulders sagging with a mix of acceptance and resignation.

Pedri: "You're right, Y/N. I don't want to hurt him either."

Y/N reached out and placed her hand on Pedri's arm, her touch gentle and reassuring.

Y/N: "We'll find a way to navigate this, Pedri. We'll continue to be there for Mateo as co-parents, and we'll create the best environment for him."

Pedri looked at her, gratitude evident in his gaze.

Pedri: "Thank you for understanding, Y/N."

Y/N managed a small smile, her heart heavy with the weight of their shared responsibility.

Y/N: "It's what's best for all of us."

As Pedri and Y/N reentered the living room, their conversation weighed on Pedri's mind, leaving him with a sense of melancholy. His thoughts were momentarily interrupted when he felt a small hand tugging at his shirt.

Mateo looked up at Pedri, his wide eyes filled with concern.

Mateo: "Papi, why do you look sad? Did you got scold by mami?"

Pedri managed a small smile for Mateo's sake, but the sadness still lingered in his eyes.

Pedri: "Oh, no, buddy. Mami didn't scold me. I'm just thinking about something."

Mateo's brow furrowed as he continued to study Pedri's expression.

Mateo: "Is it about the movie? Did something in the movie make you sad?"

Pedri chuckled softly, touched by Mateo's empathy.

Pedri: "No, it's not the movie, little man. It's just... grown-up stuff."

Mateo's concern didn't waver, and he tilted his head to the side, his expression curious.

Mateo: "Grown-up stuff? Like what?"

Y/N watched the interaction between father and son, her heart swelling with both pride and tenderness.

Pedri crouched down to be at eye level with Mateo, his voice gentle.

Pedri: "Well, you know, sometimes grown-ups have things to figure out, just like you have to figure out puzzles or games."

Mateo's expression brightened, and he nodded in understanding.

Mateo: "Oh, I get it! Like when I can't find the right piece for my puzzle."

Pedri smiled, ruffling Mateo's hair affectionately.

Pedri: "Exactly, buddy. We're just trying to find the right pieces for our puzzle."

Mateo seemed satisfied with the explanation, and he grinned up at Pedri.

Mateo: "Well, I hope you find all the pieces,Papi!"

Pedri's smile grew, his heart warmed by Mateo's innocent optimism.

Pedri: "Thank you, champ. I'll do my best."

Y/N couldn't help but feel a rush of emotions as she watched Pedri and Mateo interact.

While the movie kept playing, Mateo fell asleep with his Spider-Man blanket. Y/N got sleepy too and dozed off on the couch.

Seeing them like that, Pedri felt happy inside. He made sure Mateo was covered and then turned his attention to Y/N.

He found a new blanket and gently put it over her, making sure she was comfy and warm. Looking at her sleeping peacefully, he smiled softly.

“Time for bed, lil buddy,” Pedri whispered gently, his voice filled with warmth and tenderness. With a soft smile, he carefully lifted Mateo into his arms, feeling the weight of his slumbering son against his chest.

As he made his way to Mateo’s room, the soft light in the hallway cast a cozy ambiance. Pedri’s steps were slow and deliberate, his focus solely on ensuring that Mateo’s transition from the couch to his bed would be seamless and comfortable.

Pedri went into Mateo's room, being careful as he approached the bed. He gently put Mateo down on the soft sheets and made sure the pillows were comfy for his head.

He covered Mateo with the blankets, making sure he was all cozy. Seeing Mateo sleep so peacefully made Pedri feel really happy. He gave Mateo a sweet kiss on his forehead.

Standing up, Pedri looked at Mateo once more with a smile full of love. He left the door a bit open, knowing that his son was safe and comfortable, drifting off into dreams.

Returning to the living room, Pedri’s steps were gentle as he approached Y/N. He leaned down, his voice a soft whisper filled with concern.

“Hey,” he said, his words a tender invitation. “You should sleep in a bed, not on the couch.”

Y/N stirred slightly, her voice muffled as she mumbled a response.

“It’s fine,” she murmured, her sleepiness evident. “I’ll sleep on the couch.”

Pedri’s brow furrowed with a mixture of care and determination. He understood that Y/N was trying to be considerate, but he wanted her to be comfortable too.

He crouched down beside the couch, his voice soothing as he gently insisted.

“Y/N, you deserve a good night’s sleep in a bed. Come on, I’ll help you get to one.”

Y/N moved a little, her eyes half-open as she looked at Pedri. Her expression showed she was still a bit sleepy.

"I'm really fine, Pedri," she whispered.

Pedri’s eyes held a silent plea, his fingers lightly brushing against her arm.

“Please, Y/N,” he said softly. “Let me make sure you’re comfortable.”

“No, it’s okay, I don’t want to get up. I’m really sleepy and tired. I’ll be fine here…” Y/N murmured.

Pedri’s brows furrowed, his intention to ensure her comfort unwavering. He took a moment, considering her words, and then let out a gentle sigh.

“I understand you’re tired,” he began, his voice kind and patient. “But let me carry you to bed. You’ll sleep better there.”

He offered his hand once more, his eyes reflecting his genuine care for her well-being. There was a subtle insistence in his tone, a desire to make sure she was truly taken care of.

“C’mon,” he urged gently, his smile warm. “Let’s get you to bed.”

“Okay….” she relented softly, offering a small but appreciative smile.

Pedri held Y/N close, his arms encircling her in a tender embrace. Her arms rested gently over his neck, and she wrapped her leg around his waist. With her secure in his arms, he began walking towards the guest bedroom.

Amidst their journey to the bed, Y/N let out a soft, almost imperceptible whimper. Her head found its resting place on Pedri's neck, a small sigh escaping her. The intimacy of the moment, their closeness, stirred a mixture of emotions within her.

For Pedri, her actions conveyed a sense of vulnerability and trust that touched him deeply. Feeling her lay her head against his neck, he felt a surge of affection and connection that enveloped them both. It was a reminder of the bond they shared—a bond that could be felt even in the quietest of gestures.

As he continued towards the bed, Pedri's steps were slow and measured, his focus on ensuring Y/N's comfort.

Upon reaching the bed, he lowered her down with utmost care, making sure she was settled comfortably. Gently, he adjusted the pillows and blankets around her, making sure she was cozy. As he stood by the bed, he gently pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. With a soft smile, he whispered, "Sleep well, Y/N."

As Pedri stood by the bed, ready to give Y/N some space to rest, a gentle tug on his finger surprised him. Looking down, he saw Y/N's fingers intertwined with his, holding on as if not ready to let go.

Her soft voice broke the silence, urging him to stay. "Stay….." she whispered, her tone carrying a mixture of vulnerability and longing.

Pedri's heart skipped a beat, the depth of her request touching him profoundly. With a soft smile, he gently released his finger from her grasp. Without a moment's hesitation, he climbed onto the bed, his movements careful and deliberate.

Cuddled up beside her, Pedri's arms encircled Y/N, drawing her close to him. She nestled against his chest, her head finding its resting place just below his chin. The warmth of their embrace was like a cocoon of comfort, enveloping them both in a sense of intimacy that words couldn't fully capture.

The rhythm of their breaths seemed to sync, their heartbeats harmonizing as if they were two pieces of a puzzle coming together. The silence of the room was filled with a quiet tenderness, a language that only they understood.

Pedri pressed a gentle kiss to the top of Y/N's head, his actions conveying a depth of emotion that needed no words. Wrapped in each other's arms.

———————————————————-

In the quiet of the very early morning, around 4am, Y/N woke up suddenly because she heard Mateo crying. His voice filled the house, and he was calling for "papi" and "mami," sounding like he really needed them.

Instantly awake, Y/N’s heart raced with concern. She turned to Pedri, her touch gentle yet urgent as she pinched his arm.

“Pedri, wake up!” she exclaimed, her voice laced with worry. “Mateo’s looking for us!”

Pedri woke up and understood how serious it was. He nodded, quickly sitting up on the bed.

"We have to go to him," Pedri said, his voice showing that he felt the same urgency as Y/N.

They quickly got out of bed and hurried through the house, following the sound of Mateo’s calls.

When they got to Mateo, he had tears on his face and looked really upset. Y/N and Pedri didn't waste a moment – they hugged him tightly to make him feel better. Being close to them helped Mateo feel safe even though he was scared.

“Shh, baby, we’re here,” Y/N reassured him, her voice soft and soothing. “Papi and mami are right here. What's wrong, honey?" Y/N cooed, her voice a soothing balm. "Are you okay?"

Pedri knelt beside them, his presence a source of comfort. "Mateo, tell us what happened. Did you have a bad dream?"

In between his crying, Mateo was able to talk. "I had a bad dream," he said, his words showing how scared he was. "The monster from the movie came to me and wanted to eat me."

Y/N and Pedri exchanged a knowing glance, their hearts aching for their son's distress. Y/N's fingers brushed his cheek gently, her touch as soft as her words.

"Aw, baby, it's okay," she cooed softly. "Mami and Papi are here now. The monster won't do anything to you anymore."

Pedri leaned in, pressing a loving kiss to Mateo's forehead. "We'll keep you safe, little buddy."

"Can I sleep with both of you, Mami and Papi?"

Y/N and Pedri smiled warmly at each other. They both agreed with a strong and certain "Yes, of course, sweetheart."

Climbing into their bed, the three of them settled in, surrounded by a cocoon of love and comfort. As they snuggled up, Mateo’s worries started to go away, and the hug from his parents made him feel really warm inside.

"Goodnight, little one," Y/N whispered, her lips brushing against his forehead.



Pedri: *chuckles* ¡Hola, amor! Yeah, I felt like a change, so I got a haircut.

Y/N: *playfully pouting* Why…..? I liked your messy hair. It suited you baby..

Pedri: *grinning* Ay, mi amor, don't be upset. I promise I'll find a way to make this haircut look just as good.

Y/N: *teasing* Oh, really? Can you bring back the "just rolled out of bed" look?

Pedri: *laughing* Maybe not exactly, but I'll figure something out.

Y/N: You know, you're lucky you're cute no matter what your hair looks like.

Pedri: ¡Eres adorable, amor! So, you're saying you'll still cheer for me even with this new look?

Y/N: *smirking* Well, it's not like I have a choice, right? You've got me wrapped around your finger.

Pedri: *playful tone* Ah, mi amor, you're admitting your weakness for me?

Y/N: *laughing* Maybe just a little. But I still miss the old hair.

Pedri: *leans in* Well, what if I make it up to you with a special dinner tonight?

Y/N: *raising an eyebrow* A dinner to compensate for my lost love for your hair?

Pedri: *smirking* Exactly. And who knows, maybe by the end of the night, you'll be swooning over the new haircut.

Y/N: *laughing* You're quite the charmer, Pedri. But fine, dinner it is. Just know that I'm not forgiving you for cutting your hair that easily.

Pedri: *whispering* We'll see about that, amor.

[Later that day, Y/N is sitting on the couch, looking a bit sulky.]

Pedri: *walking in* Hola, mi amor. Dinner's almost ready.

Y/N: *crossing arms* Bueno, it's about time. Thought I'd starve waiting for this compensation dinner.

Pedri: *grinning* Ah, come on, don't be mad at me. It's just a haircut.

Y/N: *sighs dramatically* You just don't understand. Your messy hair was like your trademark. Now it's like you're a whole new person.

Pedri: *sitting beside Y/N* But am I still your favorite person, new hair and all?

Y/N: *pretending to think* Maybe... if the dinner is really, really good.

Pedri: *laughs* Well, I hope it meets your expectation, then.

Y/N: *softening* Look, it's not like I'm actually mad. Just a bit nostalgic for the old days, you know?

Pedri: *playful smile* I promise to bring back the old me next time, messy hair and all. Just for you.

Y/N: *smiles* That sounds like a deal. I missed playing your messy hair.

Pedri: *leans in and whispers* Hmmm, will you still love me if I go bald amor?

Y/N: *laughs* Of course, you silly. Hair or no hair, you're stuck with me. But please don’t go bald for now baby. Maybe in 30years, not now.

Pedri : *laughs* Ahhh amor, you’re the cutest.

[After dinner, as they're cleaning up...]

Y/N: You know, Pedri, even though I'm sulking about your hair, I have to admit this dinner was pretty amazing.

Pedri: *smirking* Told you I could win you over with food.

Y/N: *rolling eyes* Hey, it's not just about the food. It's about the effort you put in, plus you look so hot when you cook.

Pedri: *playful tone* So, does this mean you're not mad at my hair anymore?

Y/N: *leaning closer* Well, maybe a little less mad. But you still owe me a promise.

Pedri: *raising an eyebrow* And what's that?

Y/N: *whispering* Bring back the messy hair just for me. Deal?

Pedri: *smiling* Deal, amor. Anything for you.

[As they continue cleaning up, Pedri notices Y/N's grin.]

Pedri: *curious* Why are you looking at me like that amor?

Y/N: *teasing* Oh, nothing. I was just wondering if you could cook dinner wearing your apron... and nothing else.

Pedri: *blushing and laughing* ¡Vaya! You really know how to turn the tables, don't you?

Y/N: *grinning* Of course, after all I’m your baby. She winked at him.

Pedri: *shaking head* You're impossible, but I love you.

Y/N : Te quiero mucho pepi. Can you do that next time? Will you accept my challenge?

Pedri: *laughs* Challenge accepted, mi amor.

With a cheeky smile, he lifted you onto the countertop. Both of you locked eyes, and he leaned in then kissed your lips.

Y/N: “Anyway…. Why did you cut your hair baby?”

Pedri: “I had to… I need to look presentable for the match tomorrow, amor.”

The air between both of you were charged with a mix of curiosity and desire. His lips met yours, a passionate kiss that ignited a fire within. His hands held you close, bodies pressed together as the kiss deepened.

Y/N: *as their lips parted* “Gotta admit, I miss your messy hair already.”

Pedri’s lips curved into a sheepish smile as he brushed a strand of hair from your face.

Pedri: “Ay amor, you really love my messy hair that much huh? You’re not a fan of the new look?”

Y/N: “Let’s just say… the messy hair had its charm.”

Pedri’s fingers traced a path along your waist, a knowing glint in his eyes. Pedri’s lips found yours again, the kiss was a mixture of intensity and tenderness.

Pedri: *chuckles* “It’s okay… You’ll get used to it, promise.”

Y/N: “Will you look this neat during the entire match?”

Pedri’s eyes twinkled with amusement as his lips brushed against yours.

Pedri: “Only if it gets you to kiss me like this.”

Your arms wrapped around Pedri’s waist, pulling him closer, intensifying the connection. Pedri’s fingers threaded through your hair, the desire in his touch sending a rush of heat through your veins.

Breaking the kiss, your lips curled into a mischievous smile, eyes locked onto Pedri’s.

"Pedri, did you eat all of the snacks?" Y/N asked.

"No, I didn't touch them," Pedri replied.

"Then who did?" Y/N asked, looking around the room.

She turned to Gavi, who had just walked in. "Gavi, did you eat all the candy?" she asked.

Gavi hesitated. "Um, no, I didn't eat all of it."

Y/N raised an eyebrow. "Then who did?"

Pedri shook his head. "Don’t look at me amor, I didn't touch it."

Y/N frowned. "Well, clearly someone did. We had a whole bag of candy yesterday, and now it's all gone."

Gavi looked guilty. "Okay guys, I might have had a few pieces."

Y/N rolled her eyes. "A few pieces? Gavi, you ate the whole bag!"

Gavi laughed nervously. "Okay, okay, you caught me. I have a sweet tooth, what can I say?"

Y/N sighed. "Gavi, you can't keep eating all of our food. You need to save some for us," she said.

"Sorry, Y/N. I just can't resist your snacks. They're too good," Gavi said with a grin.

Pedri chuckled. "It's okay, man. We'll just have to buy more candy next time. You're lucky we love you, hermano. Otherwise, we might have to kick you out," he joked.

Y/N nodded. "Yeah, you’re lucky we love you."

Gavi chuckled. "I know."

They all settled down on the couch, with Gavi in the middle. Y/N snuggled up to Pedri, and Gavi put his feet up on the coffee table.

As they watched a movie together, they teased each other and laughed at each other's jokes. It was moments like these that made their friendship so special.

During the movie, Y/N got up to make some popcorn. "Anyone want some popcorn?" she asked.

Gavi and Pedri both nodded, and Y/N went into the kitchen to make the popcorn. As she was doing so, she heard Gavi and Pedri whispering to each other.

"What are you guys talking about?" she asked, coming back into the living room.

Pedri shrugged. "Nothing."

Y/N raised an eyebrow. "You guys are up to something.”

Pedri grinned. "We were just talking about how cute you are when you're making popcorn."

Y/N rolled her eyes. “You guys are such a dork”

————————————————————-

One evening, they were having a small dinner party. Gavi had brought over his mom’s famous paella, Pedri had made a delicious salad, and Y/N had baked a cheesecake for dessert. They were all sitting around the table, laughing and chatting, when Gavi suddenly got up and went to the kitchen.

"What are you doing, Gavi?" Y/N asked.

"I'm just going to get some more wine," Gavi replied.

A few minutes later, he returned to the table, carrying a large platter of cheese and crackers.

Y/N shook her head “Just some more wine? really, Gavi?”

“Hey I thought we could use some more snacks," he said with a grin.

Pedri and Y/N laughed. "You're always thinking about food, Gavi," Pedri said.

Gavi shrugged. "What can I say? I love to eat!"

They continued to enjoy their dinner party, chatting about everything from football to politics. As the night wore on, they started to get a little tipsy from all the wine. Gavi was telling a story about a crazy night out he had when he suddenly knocked over his glass, spilling wine all over the table.

"Oops, sorry about that," he said, grabbing a napkin to clean up the mess.

Y/N laughed. "You're such a mess," she teased.

Gavi grinned. "I know, but you guys love me anyway," he said.

Pedri and Y/N exchanged a look and smiled. "Yes, we do," they said in unison.

As the night came to a close, Gavi helped them clean up the kitchen. He was always willing to lend a hand and never wanted to overstay his welcome.

"Thanks for another great night, guys," he said as he headed out the door, a little tipsy.

"Whoa hold on right there kiddo, no no no you're not going to drive in this state," Y/N said firmly, holding out her hand to stop him.

Pedri chimed in, concerned. "Yeah, hermano, you've had a bit too much to drink."

Gavi protested, "No, I'm fine. I can drive."

Y/N shook her head. "No, no, no. There’s no way we're letting you drive. You're staying here tonight."

Pedri agreed, coming over to Gavi. "Y/N's right, Gavi. You're not in any condition to drive. Let's get you settled."

With a sigh and a grin, Gavi relented. "Alright, alright. You guys win."

Pedri and Y/N each took one of Gavi's arms and helped him stand up. "Bedtime for you, kiddo," Y/N said playfully.

Pedri chuckled. "Yeah, you're crashing on the couch tonight."

But Gavi's eyes grew heavy as they led him to the couch. "Actually, guys, I'm feeling really tired. Can I get a bed please..?” Gavi asked, his words slightly slurred.

Y/N laughed softly. "Alright then, guest bedroom it is."

With a little more effort, they managed to guide Gavi to their spare bedroom. He plopped down on the bed with a contented sigh.

"Thanks for taking care of me, you two. You guys are the best," Gavi mumbled, his words already starting to slur.

Pedri grinned. "No problem, hermano. Just get some rest."

As Y/N covered Gavi with a blanket, she teased, "Looks like we're taking care of our own little kid tonight."

Gavi chuckled sleepily. "Yeah, yeah. Goodnight, mami y papi."

Ferran: “Hey, guys! Let’s hit the town tonight. There’s a new club that just opened, and I heard the music there is amazing!”

Eric: “Sounds like a plan! Count me in.”

Gavi: “I’m up for it too. It’s going to be a blast!”

Pedri: “Um, actually, I’m not really in the mood to go out. I was planning to stay home and play some video games tonight.”

Ferran: “Come on, Pedri! It’s been a while since we had a night out together. You can play games any other time.”

Eric: “Yeah, don’t be a party pooper. You’re coming with us!”

Gavi: "C'mon, hermano, let's go out. We've been working hard this season, and we all need a break."

Pedri: "I mean.. I don’t know hermano.. I’m not in the mood for a drink."

Ferran: "Come on, Pedri, it's just one night. We all need a break, and a night out would be so much fun!"

Pedri: “Bueno… fine, if you guys really want me to go…”

Ferran: “That’s the spirit! You won’t regret it, Let’s gooo!! ”

As the night unfolded at the club, Y/N, wearing a stunning v-neck backless bodycon dress, entered the venue, and her presence caught Pedri’s eyes instantly. He couldn’t help but steal glances at her from across the room, mesmerized by her beauty and confidence.

As Y/N caught Pedri’s eyes, she simply smiled, her gaze holding a hint of playful mischief. She joined her friends on the dance floor, moving gracefully to the music while keeping an eye on Pedri.

Y/N’s friends noticed her subtle game and played along, teasingly encouraging her to show off her dance moves. They laughed and danced together.

Pedri couldn’t help but be captivated by Y/N’s charm as she playfully tried to flirt with her sexiness. Her subtle gestures were enticing, making his heart race with excitement. He found himself pulled toward her energy, feeling a magnetic pull he couldn’t resist. He then made his way toward her as she danced gracefully with her friends.

As the music enveloped them, Pedri approached Y/N, his heart beating faster with each step. He leaned in closer, and with a confident smile, he whispered in her ear, "Hey there, bonita, enjoying the night?"

Y/N turned toward him, her playful smile returning. "Oh, definitely," she replied, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "And it just got better now that you're here."

Pedri felt a rush of warmth, encouraged by her response. "I couldn't help but notice how amazing you look in that dress," he said, complimenting her with sincerity.

Y/N blushed slightly, feeling a delightful thrill at Pedri's charming approach. "Thank you. You're quite the dancer yourself," she teased, motioning to the dance moves he had displayed earlier.

Pedri couldn’t help but chuckle, shaking his head playfully. “Oh no, no, I’m terrible at dancing, like seriously, I’m the worst dancer ever” he admitted with a grin.

Y/N laughed, finding his humility endearing. “Well, I beg to differ. You held your own out there, and I had a great time dancing with you,” she replied, teasingly bumping her shoulder against his.

As they swayed to the rhythm of the music, Y/N's friends playfully gave her knowing glances, and Pedri's friends winked at him, signaling their approval of this budding connection.

Pedri couldn't believe his luck at finding someone as captivating and alluring as Y/N. He leaned in once again, whispering in her ear, "Do you want to bail and get out of here? It's a bit crowded in here."

Y/N's eyes sparkled as she nodded, accepting his invitation. Hand in hand, they stepped outside, finding a quiet spot away from the club's lively atmosphere.

Under the moonlit sky, they continued to get to know each other, their conversation flowing effortlessly. Time seemed to slow down, and it felt like they were the only two people in the world.

Pedri and Y/N's connection deepened as they shared intimate moments of laughter, vulnerability, and shared interests. They discovered that their lives had beautifully intersected, and their hearts resonated with the possibility of something special blossoming between them.

As Pedri and Y/N snuck out of the club and arrived at Y/N's hotel, they couldn't help but feel the thrill of the night's adventures still coursing through their veins. Even though the swimming pool area was closed at that late hour, they both shared mischievous grins and decided to take a chance, hopping over the low fence to get inside.

Pedri: "I can't believe we're doing this, this is so exciting !"

Y/N: "Well, what can I say.. Sometimes the best moments are the ones you never planned. Let's make this night even more unforgettable!"

The dimly lit pool area echoed with the sound of their laughter as they dipped their toes into the water. The coolness of the pool contrasted with the warmth of their feelings for each other.

Pedri: "You know, I don't usually break the rules like this, but with you, it just feels right."

Y/N: "Me neither, but there's something about tonight that feels so liberating, like the universe is conspiring in our favor."

*Y/N jumped into the pool*

Y/N: “Hey, Pedri, the water looks so inviting. Come on, let’s jump in!”

Pedri: “Are you serious? It’s late, and the pool is closed. We might get in trouble…”

Y/N: “Hmmm, you’re right. Can u give me a hand?”

With a grin, Y/N extended her hand towards Pedri, mischief sparkling in her eyes. Without hesitation, Pedri took her hand, and before he knew it, he was pulled into the water by Y/N.

Pedri: “Whoa! Okay, you got me!”

Y/N laughed, her joy infectious as they splashed and played in the water. Their laughter echoed through the empty pool area, and the night seemed to be filled with endless possibilities.

Pedri wrapped his arm around Y/N's waist, pulling her closer, and they waded further into the water.

Pedri: "I feel so alive when I'm with you. It's like everything else fades away."

Y/N: "I feel the same way. It's like time stands still when we're together."

As they swam and played in the pool, their connection deepened with each shared moment. The night seemed endless as they continued to talk and laugh under the moonlit sky.

Pedri: "You know, I've never met anyone quite like you before."

Y/N: "And I've never felt this way about anyone else either. It's like we've known each other forever."

Pedri leaned in, his heart pounding in his chest, and gently brushed his lips against Y/N's.

Pedri: "I can't get enough of you."

Y/N: "Me neither. I don’t want this night to end"

Their kisses became more passionate, and the pool seemed to shimmer with the magic of their connection. They held each other close, savouring the sweet taste of newfound love.

Pedri’s hand gently cupped Y/N’s cheek, and he leaned in, his lips softly brushing against hers. Their breaths mingled, and the world around them seemed to fade away, leaving only the sensation of their bodies entwined in the water.

Y/N’s heart raced as she melted into the kiss, feeling a surge of desire and passion unlike anything she had experienced before. Pedri’s touch sent shivers down her spine, and she wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer.

Their kiss deepened, becoming more passionate, as if they had been longing for this moment all their lives. The water around them mirrored the heat of their embrace, adding to the intensity of their connection.

Pedri’s hands caressed her back, tracing gentle patterns along her spine, while Y/N’s fingers ran through his damp hair, sending tingles of pleasure through his entire being.

As they kissed, time seemed to stand still, and the only thing that mattered was the intoxicating passion between them. Their bodies moved together in perfect harmony, lost in the rhythm of their desires.

The cool water enveloped them, heightening their senses and making the moment even more surreal. They were completely consumed by each other, feeling an overwhelming magnetic pull that they couldn’t resist.

Their lips parted for a moment, both breathless and filled with an intoxicating mix of emotions. They gazed into each other’s eyes, the depth of their connection now undeniable.

Y/N: “Wow.”

Pedri: “Yeah… wow.”

Their voices were barely above a whisper, but the intensity of their emotions spoke volumes. Without saying another word, they leaned in once more, their lips meeting in a searing kiss, more passionate than before.

As they broke their intense kisses, Y/N’s fingers gently brushed through Pedri’s wet hair, and a playful smile spread across her lips.

Y/N: “You know, Pedri, you look quite handsome with wet hair.”

Pedri: “Really? You think I look handsome with wet hair?”

Y/N: “Absolutely! You look so hot, and I love it.”

Pedri’s eyes sparkled with delight, and before he could say anything else, Y/N leaned in and kissed him again, this time with even more intensity and passion. His hands gently caressed Y/N’s back, drawing her closer, while Y/N’s fingers lovingly traced the contours of his wet hair. Each touch, each kiss, sent waves of pleasure through their bodies, leaving them craving more.

As security approached with the beam of a torch light, Y/N and Pedri knew they had to act quickly to avoid any suspicion. They exchanged worried glances, realizing that their current hiding spot might not be enough to evade detection.

Y/N whispered urgently to Pedri, “We need to find a better place to hide. Quick! Come with me!”

She grabbed his hand, searching for a safer spot in the dimly lit surroundings.

The sound of footsteps and the flashlight’s beam grew closer, adding to the tension of the moment. Y/N’s heart pounded in her chest, and she could feel Pedri’s hand trembling slightly in hers.

They managed to find a small storage room nearby, and without hesitation, they slipped inside and quietly closed the door behind them. The room was filled with shadows, and they tried to control their breathing, hoping the security personnel wouldn’t hear any noise.

The footsteps outside passed by, and the beam of the torch light scanned the area once more before moving away. Y/N and Pedri let out a collective sigh of relief, grateful that they had avoided being discovered.

Y/N whispered softly to Pedri, “We should wait here for a while, just to be safe.”

As they waited, the adrenaline from their thrilling escape began to subside, and they found themselves in a surprisingly intimate moment. Unable to resist the pull any longer, Pedri closed the distance between them and gently pressed his lips against Y/N’s. It was a soft and tender kiss at first, but it quickly deepened into something more passionate and lustful.

Y/N’s heart raced as she melted into the kiss, her hands instinctively finding their way to Pedri’s strong shoulders. His arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer, and their bodies pressed against each other, igniting a fire that they could no longer control.

With each kiss, the world around them faded away, leaving only the intoxicating taste of each other’s lips.

Amidst the intensity of their passionate kisses, the tight space of the storage room caused a few items to tumble from the shelves, making a soft clattering sound as they hit the floor. Y/N and Pedri paused for a moment, their lips still touching, and then they both burst into laughter.

As they kissed again. The fallen items in the room were quickly forgotten as they surrendered to the heat of the moment.

A soft moan escaped Y/N’s lips, encouraging Pedri to deepen the connection even further. His hand gently caressed her cheek, and she leaned into his touch, feeling a rush of desire that she couldn’t deny. The close quarters and shared sense of danger brought them closer together.

Pedri turned to Y/N, his eyes locking onto hers in the dim light.

Pedri: “I’m glad you’re here with me.”

Y/N: “Me too. This has been one of the craziest nights of my life.”

Pedri: “Crazy, but unforgettable.”

Y/N smiled, feeling a connection that went beyond the wild escapades of the night.

Y/N: “Indeed. I’ve never been chased by security before.”

Pedri chuckled and said “ Me neither. That was crazy.”

Y/N: “Well… I think I should get back to my room before things get too exciting.”

Pedri smiled, not wanting the night to end just yet.

Pedri: “I don’t want this night to end. Can I see you again?”

Y/N’s heart skipped a beat at his question, but she couldn’t resist teasing him a bit.

Y/N: “Hmm, well, you’ll have to find a way to impress me.”

With that, she playfully ran towards her hotel room, leaving Pedri with a mix of excitement and determination in his eyes.

Pedri watched her go, and stopped her and said “Wait! I don’t even know your name. What’s your name?”

“Well, you’ll have to find out next time we meet. Adiós, Pedri!” Y/N smirked, giving him a wink, and blew him a flying kiss.

Pedri standing there, filled with excitement and curiosity about this enchanting woman he had just met. He was captivated by her and couldn’t wait to see her again.

As Y/N's birthday approached, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. In the past, Pedri had always surprised her with thoughtful gestures, but this time, he seemed preoccupied and didn't mention anything about her special day. Doubts started to creep into her mind, wondering if he had forgotten.

On the morning of her birthday, Y/N received no birthday wishes from Pedri. Her heart sank, and she tried to hide her disappointment, convincing herself that maybe he had been too busy with football.

Feeling down, Y/N decided to spend the day doing things she enjoyed. She went to the park, her favorite spot, and took a walk, trying to shake off her sadness. She had grown used to people forgetting her birthday in the past, so she pretended it didn't hurt as much.

Meanwhile, Pedri was busy making the final preparations for the surprise party. He had enlisted the help of Gavi, Ferran, and Eric Garcia, who were excited to celebrate their friend's special day.

As the day passed, Y/N's sadness started to lift as she tried to enjoy her birthday despite the absence of any plans with Pedri. Little did she know that he was secretly coordinating with her friends to organize the surprise party.

In the late afternoon, while Y/N was sitting on a bench at the park, lost in her thoughts, there was a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to find Gavi standing there, holding a mysterious envelope.

Gavi: (excitedly) Hey, Y/N! I've got something for you!

Y/N: (curious) For me? What is it?

Gavi: (handing her the envelope) Open it and find out.

Y/N opened the envelope and found a heartfelt letter inside. It was from Pedri, expressing his love and explaining the surprise he had planned for her. He asked her to trust him and follow the instructions in the letter.

As she read Pedri's words, tears welled up in her eyes. She hadn't expected this, and she started to realize how much he truly cared for her.

"Y/N, my love,

As the sun rises on your special day, I want you to know how much you mean to me. You are the light of my life, and every moment spent with you is a treasure I hold close to my heart.

I know things have been tough lately, and I'm sorry for not always being there like I should. Football can be demanding, but it should never take precedence over you.

Today, I wanted to surprise you in a way that would make you feel truly special. I hope you know that pretending to forget your birthday was never meant to hurt you. It was a chance to create a memory that we could cherish forever.

You are my rock, mi amor, and your happiness means everything to me. I promise to be more present, to listen to your needs, and to prioritize our relationship above all else.

You deserve the world, and I want to be the one to give it to you. You've brought so much joy into my life, and I can't imagine a day without you by my side.

Tonight, as you follow the clues and make your way to the park, know that it's a testament to the love I have for you. I've enlisted the help of our friends, who are as excited as I am to celebrate your special day.

I want to see your beautiful smile, and I want you to feel loved and cherished in every moment we share. You are the love of my life and I promise to make every day as special as this one.

So, my love, let the surprises unfold, and let your heart be filled with joy. This is just the beginning of a lifetime of happiness together.

Happy birthday, amor. You are my everything, and I love you more than words can express.

Forever yours,

Pedri"

The letter brought tears of happiness to Y/N's eyes, and her heart swelled with love. She realized how much Pedri cared for her and how wrong she was to doubt his feelings.

Filled with excitement and anticipation, Y/N followed the clues in the letter, each step leading her closer to the big surprise. Finally, as the sun began to set, Y/N arrived at a beautifully decorated park, adorned with colorful lights and balloons. She saw familiar faces, her friends, and teammates, and her heart swelled with joy.

Ferran: (excited) Happy birthday, Y/N!

Eric Garcia: (smiling) We've been waiting for you!

Y/N: (overwhelmed) This is incredible! I can't believe you guys did all this.

Gavi: Pedri wanted to make it special for you.

As the evening went on, Y/N was overwhelmed with happiness as more of her friends and teammates arrived to celebrate her birthday. Pedri appeared with a bouquet of flowers and a sheepish smile, revealing his elaborate plan.

Pedri: I wanted to surprise you amor! I pretended to forget so this moment could be even more special.

Y/N: (teary-eyed) You succeeded, Pedri. I can't believe you did all of this for me.

Pedri: You deserve the world, Y/N. I'm sorry for pretending to forget, but I hope this makes up for it. He said then kissed her.

Y/N: It definitely does. Thank you for making this birthday unforgettable.

As the night went on, they danced under the twinkling lights, swaying to the rhythm of their love. Pedri held her close and kissed her on her forehead, so many times, and Y/N felt like she was floating on air. All the doubts and sadness from earlier had vanished into thin air, replaced by the certainty that Pedri was the one for her.

Later, as the party started to wind down, Pedri pulled Y/N aside to a quiet corner of the park.

Pedri: (softly) Hey amor.. I'm so sorry for making you worry and pretending to forget. I didn't want to hurt you, but I wanted to surprise you in a special way.

Y/N: No baby I understand. It was a beautiful surprise, but I have to admit I was hurt at first. But it was part of the surprise right? It’s okay love.

Pedri: (looking into her eyes) I promise you, Y/N, I will never forget the birth of the love of my life. You mean everything to me, and I want to be there for every moment, big or small.

Y/N: (teary-eyed) You know, I used to pretend it didn't hurt when people forgot my birthday, but with you, it felt different.

Pedri: (whispering) Because you are different, mi amor. You're the love of my life, my everything. From now on, I promise to cherish you and make you feel loved every single day. He kissed her more and more.

Y/N: (softly) I believe you, Pedri. You've proven that tonight.

Pedri: (smiling) And I will keep proving it for the rest of our lives, amor.

Y/N: (with a gentle smile) I love you, Pedri.

Pedri's brown eyes were like warm, melted chocolate, captivating and inviting. They held a depth of emotion that spoke volumes without him saying a word. When he looked at Y/N, his eyes sparkled with affection, making her heart flutter. They were a window to his soul, and in their gaze, she found comfort and love.

As the sun set, casting a golden glow around them, Pedri leaned in, and their lips met in a soft, delicate union. It was a kiss that spoke of love, tenderness, and a promise of forever. In that moment, the world seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of them, entwined in a dance of unspoken desires.

Pedri pulled back slightly, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I can't wait to go home," he whispered.

Y/N's curiosity piqued, and she grinned playfully. "Why? What are we gonna do then?"

"It's a secret, mi amor," Pedri replied with a playful smile, and he winked at her. "It's for my bday girl only.”

Her heart skipped a beat, a delightful tingle of excitement running through her. "Oh, really? I can't wait to find out."

As they stepped back from the kiss, Pedri couldn't stop himself from pulling Y/N into a warm embrace. He wrapped his arms around her, holding her close, as if he never wanted to let go. His teammates, who had been watching the sweet exchange, couldn't resist teasing him.

Gavi, with a playful grin, called out, "Aww, look at Pedri being all lovey-dovey. Looks like someone's a little baby."

Eric and Ferran joined in the teasing, laughing playfully. "Yeah, Pedri, you're like a big softie," Eric added.

Pedri blushed but couldn't help but smile, not the least bit embarrassed by their banter. "Hey, she's special, and I want her to know it," he defended, holding Y/N a little tighter.

Y/N blushed too, feeling her heart swell with affection for him. She couldn't have asked for a more loving and caring partner. "Well, I'm lucky to have such a sweet boyfriend," she replied, her voice filled with genuine fondness.

Their teammates chuckled, delighted to see Pedri so smitten with Y/N. They knew he had found something truly special in her, and they couldn't be happier for their friend.

However, Gavi couldn't help but take it a step further. "If you two ever break up, I'll never believe in love again!" he exclaimed dramatically, earning a few eye rolls and laughs from the group.

Eric playfully nudged Gavi, saying, "Dude, way to ruin the mood!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and in the midst of the playful banter, Eric couldn't resist giving Gavi a light shoulder snap. "Relax, man, they're clearly meant for each other," Eric said, laughing.

Gavi pretended to wince dramatically, but his smile gave away that he was just playing along. "Okay, okay, I get it," he chuckled. "But seriously, you two are adorable together."

As the night continued, the time had come for Y/N to open the thoughtful gifts from her friends. She sat in the center of the gathering, surrounded by her loved ones, her heart filled with gratitude.

Gavi was the first to hand her an envelope. "I'm terrible at picking gifts, so I hope you don't mind," he chuckled nervously.

Y/N smiled warmly and opened the envelope, finding a card inside.

"Dear Y/N," she read out loud, "I know you can buy yourself whatever you want, but I thought this might come in handy. Happy birthday!" She opened the card to find 5000€ tucked inside. Y/N couldn't help but laughed at Gavi's gift.

"Wow, Gavi? 5000€?" Mikky teased, shaking her head with a grin. "You know you could've just gone to Sephora and bought her a bunch of birthday gift sets."

Gavi looked a bit puzzled, "Sephora? What's that?"

The group burst into laughter,. "Oh, Gavi, it's a cosmetics and beauty store. They have all sorts of amazing gifts for women, they've got everything from makeup and skincare to perfumes and fancy gift boxes." Mikky explained.

Gavi scratched his head, still a bit perplexed, "Well, I thought money would give her more options, no?"

Y/N laughed and said , "It's okay, Gavi. I appreciate the thought, and I can definitely find something nice to treat myself with."

Next in line was Ferran, who presented her with a small, beautifully wrapped box. "I hope you like it," he said with a shy smile.

Y/N eagerly opened the box to find a delicate Coco Chanel bracelet with a simple yet elegant design. "OMG Ferran, this is stunning! Thank you so much," she said, admiring the gift and putting it on her wrist. She hugged Ferran, grateful for the thoughtful present.

Eric handed her a gift bag with a playful grin. "I hope you're never late for anything now," he joked.

Y/N opened the bag to find an Apple watch inside. "Oh, wow! This is amazing! I’ll never late again after this, thank you, Eric," she exclaimed, touched by his gesture. She knew that Eric was always punctual, and his gift was a thoughtful reminder to cherish every moment.

As the evening went on, she received a surprise gift from De Jong and Mikky. They handed her a beautifully wrapped box, adorned with a luxurious ribbon.

"I hope you like it, Y/N," Mikky said with a warm smile.

Y/N carefully opened the box to reveal a gorgeous Dior bag. Her eyes widened in amazement, and she looked at the couple with gratitude. "I can't believe this! Thank you both so much. It's perfect," she said, feeling incredibly lucky to have such thoughtful friends.

Just as Y/N thought the gift-giving was over, Ansu and Balde approached her with cheeky smiles, holding a box between them.

Ansu chuckled mischievously. "We couldn't resist teasing you and Pedri a bit," he said.

Y/N raised an eyebrow, curious about the contents of the box. As she opened it, her eyes widened at the sight of cute baby clothes inside. “Oh, you two! Teasing us already?" Y/N said with a smile, pretending to be embarrassed.

Balde grinned, "Hey, we thought we'd give you a little preview of the future!"

Ansu added, "Who knows, maybe we'll be celebrating a double birthday next year!"

Y/N laughed and shook her head, feeling touched by the playful gesture. "Well, thank you anyway. They're adorable, even though there’s no baby." she said.

“Yet…” Balde said. They all laughed.

As the laughter subsided, Pedri knew it was the perfect moment to surprise Y/N with his special gift. He held her hand and smiled,

With a mischievous grin, Pedri said, "Now now, it's my turn to surprise you, amor."

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small envelope. He handed it to Y/N, who looked at him with excitement and curiosity.

"What could this be?" Y/N wondered aloud as she opened the envelope. Her eyes widened in amazement when she saw the VIP ticket for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

“Pedri, is this real? Taylor Swift's Eras Tour VIP ticket?! No way! Pedri, how did you manage to get this babe? I've been trying to get tickets for so long!" Y/N exclaimed, her heart racing with excitement.

Pedri chuckled, "I pulled some strings and managed to get it just for you. I know how much you love Taylor Swift and how disappointed you were about not getting the tickets. I want to make sure you get to see your favorite artist perform up close. You've been wanting to go to this tour for so long, right?”.

Y/N's heart swelled with love and appreciation. She hugged Pedri tightly, "Yes!! Thank you, thank you so much! This is the best gift ever! I love you so much!!"

The group cheered, happy to witness Y/N's elation. Y/N turned to face them, still holding onto Pedri's hand, "Guys, he got me the Taylor Swift VIP ticket! Can you believe it?"

Gavi grinned, "Wow, Pedri, you're officially the best boyfriend ever!"

Eric and Ferran nodded in agreement, "Yeah, you set the bar pretty high for all of us now!"

The group laughed, and Y/N couldn't stop beaming with joy. She felt so lucky to have Pedri in her life, and the VIP ticket was the cherry on top of her already incredible birthday celebration.

Without hesitation, Y/N leaned in and kissed Pedri in front of everyone. The cheers and applause from their friends only added to the magic of the moment. As they pulled away, Y/N looked at Pedri with so much love in her eyes, "I love you, Pedri."

Pedri smiled, "I love you too, baby."

As the night went on, the celebration continued with laughter, music, and dancing. Y/N felt surrounded by love, not only from Pedri but also from her wonderful friends. The surprises, gifts, and heartfelt words made this birthday truly unforgettable.

Y/N: "Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. Don't worry; I'll take care of you."

Throughout the day, Y/N made sure Pedri was warm and comfortable. She brought him blankets, brewed some hot tea, and even put on his favorite football match to lift his spirits. But Pedri's appetite was nonexistent, and he didn't feel like eating anything.

Y/N: "You need to eat something to regain your strength. How about some warm porridge? It'll be easy on your throat."

Pedri: "I don't feel like eating babe. My throat hurts."

Y/N: "Come on, Pedri, I’ll make it for you, so that you will feel better."

Pedri pouted like a child, but Y/N wasn't one to give up easily.

Y/N: "Please, for me? You know I hate seeing you like this."

Pedri's expression softened at Y/N's words. "Okay, fine. But only because you make it."

Y/N: "Okay now you should stay in bed and rest. I'll take care of everything for you."

Pedri weakly protested, "But I don't want you to do everything alone. I can help."

Y/N smiled sweetly, placing a gentle hand on his forehead to check his temperature.

Y/N: "No no no, your temperature is too high baby, Don't worry about it. Your priority right now is to get better. I'll take care of you, my love."

As Y/N went into the kitchen to prepare a warm bowl of porridge for Pedri, he tried to follow her, wanting to help. However, his legs felt wobbly, and he stumbled a little, earning a worried glance from Y/N.

Y/N: "Pedri, you really need to stay in bed. I don't want you to get more exhausted."

Pedri sighed, reluctantly returning to the bed.

Pedri: "Alright, I'll stay in bed, but you have to promise to let me help you when I feel better."

Y/N chuckled, "Of course my love. Now, rest while I make you some comforting porridge."

In the kitchen, Y/N carefully cooked the porridge, adding some extra love and care. She knew how much Pedri loved her cooking, and she hoped it would lift his spirits.

When the porridge was ready, Y/N brought it to Pedri, who was now lying down with a slight frown on his face.

Y/N: "Here you go, baby. Eat this, it'll make you feel better."

Pedri sighed dramatically, "I'm not really hungry right now.."

Y/N's eyes sparkled mischievously, and she decided to use a tactic she knew would work.

Y/N: "Oh, come on, schmoopie boo, just one spoon for me?"

Pedri's eyes widened at the playful nickname Y/N used only on special occasions.

Pedri: "Schmoopie boo? Really?"

Y/N laughed, "Yes, seriously. It's a special name for my special baby, and I think it suits you perfectly."

Pedri couldn't help but smile at Y/N's charm and affectionate teasing. He then finally took a small spoonful, but his frown didn't go away.

Pedri: "It's bland… I can’t taste anything, can you add some more salt or something? "

Y/N chuckled, seeing through his attempt to get out of eating the porridge.

Y/N: "Nice try, but no. You need to eat it as it is baby."

Pedri grumbled but reluctantly continued to eat. However, the porridge seemed to taste better with each bite, not because of any added salt, but because it was made by the one he loved.

Y/N: "That's it my schmoopie boo. Keep going, it'll make you feel better."

Pedri rolled his eyes playfully, but he couldn't help but smile at Y/N's determination to take care of him.

Pedri: "Fine, but only because you called me schmoopie boo."

Y/N laughed heartily, using the nickname she knew Pedri secretly loved.

Y/N: "You know you're my adorable schmoopie boo, and I'll always take care of you."

Y/N: "You know what would make you feel even better, schmoopie?"

Pedri chuckled, knowing exactly where this was going.

Pedri: "A kiss on the lips, right?"

Y/N grinned mischievously, "Oh, you wish! But you're still recovering, remember? I don't want to risk catching your cold."

Pedri pouted, but he understood Y/N's concern. He didn't want to get her sick either.

Pedri: "Fair enough. How about a kiss on the forehead then?"

Y/N's eyes softened with affection.

Y/N: "Of course, schmoopie."

Pedri leaned in, and Y/N placed a tender kiss on his forehead, sending a wave of warmth and care through him.

Pedri: " Aww, thank you, my sweet schmoopie."

Y/N: "You're welcome baby. Now, finish your porridge, and I'll go get you some more tea and medicine."

Pedri nodded.

Y/N: "Alright now, you need to take this medicine. It will help you recover faster, okay?”

Pedri: "But it tastes terrible, and I hate taking medicine."

Y/N: "I understand, but it's for your own good. Please, just one spoonful, and I promise I'll make it up to you."

Pedri crossed his arms, looking like a stubborn child.

Pedri: "I don't know... Can't you give me a kiss on the lips instead?"

Y/N laughed, trying to hide the amusement in her voice.

Y/N: "Nice try, but you know that's not a fair trade. Medicine is essential for your health."

Pedri continued to pout, but Y/N knew just how to handle him.

Y/N: "Alright, here's the deal. You take the medicine, and I'll give you three forehead kisses."

Pedri raised an eyebrow, considering the offer.

Pedri: "Three? That's it?"

Y/N: "Three, and they'll be extra sweet, I promise."

Pedri hesitated for a moment before finally relenting.

Pedri: "Okay, fine, but only because I can't resist your forehead kisses."

Y/N smiled, handing Pedri the medicine.

Y/N: "Good choice, schmoopie. Now, open wide and take it like a champ."

Pedri reluctantly swallowed the medicine, making a face as he did so.

Pedri: "Ugh, that was awful."

Y/N grinned, leaning in to deliver on her promise.

Y/N: "You did great! Now, here come your forehead kisses."

Y/N placed three tender kisses on Pedri's forehead, and he couldn't help but smile, feeling a little better already.

Pedri: "You're a sneaky one. But thanks for taking care of me."

Y/N hugged him tightly, knowing that even with a bit of teasing, taking care of Pedri was a labor of love.

Y/N: "Always, schmoopie. Now rest, and let the medicine work its magic."

After taking the medicine, Pedri settled back into bed, and Y/N placed a damp cloth on his forehead to reduce his fever.

Y/N: "There, the damp cloth should help bring down your fever and make you feel more comfortable."

Pedri closed his eyes, feeling the soothing sensation of the damp cloth on his forehead.

Pedri: "Thank you amor, you always know how to take care of me."

Y/N smiled, leaning down to give him a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Y/N: "My pleasure love. Now rest, okay? Get some sleep."

As Pedri closed his eyes, he felt grateful for Y/N's love and care. With Y/N by his side, he knew he would recover in no time.

In the quiet moments that followed, Y/N continued to sit by his side, occasionally brushing her fingers through his hair and whispering sweet words of comfort as he drifted off to sleep..

As the day went on, Y/N continued to take care of Pedri, making sure he had everything he needed to recover fully. She would occasionally sneak in playful forehead kisses, knowing it brought a smile to Pedri's face.

Two days later, Pedri's cold had subsided significantly, thanks to Y/N's love and care. As they snuggled up together on the couch, Pedri couldn't help but express his gratitude.

Pedri: "You know, I couldn't have asked for a better partner. You make everything better, my sweet schmoopie. Te quiero mucho mi amor. “

Y/N blushed, feeling adored and cherished.

Y/N: "And I couldn't have asked for a better schmoopie boo. You bring so much joy into my life and I love you more baby."

Y/N: *smiles and greets him* "Hey, welcome home handsome! How was training?"

Pedri: "It was intense, but great. I missed you, though." *moves closer to Y/N for a hug*

Y/N: *laughs playfully and steps back slightly* "Hold on there, stinky! You need to take a shower first before I let you touch me."

Pedri: *pretends to be offended* "Stinky? Really? I thought you loved my football player scent."

Y/N: *laughs* "I do love you, but I also love fresh-smelling you better. So, off you go to the shower!"

Pedri: *smirks* "Alright, alright, I'll take a quick shower. But you better save some cooking for me!"

Y/N: *playfully rolls her eyes* "Don't worry, I will. Go freshen up, and I'll have everything ready when you're done."

Pedri: "Thanks, cariño . You're the best."

Y/N: *smiles* "I know. Now, go get that stinky scent off you, and come back to a delicious dinner!"

Pedri: *heading towards the bathroom* "Deal! Be ready for the best-cooked meal you've ever tasted!"

Y/N: *laughs* "I can't wait. Now, hurry up!"

Pedri: *winks* "I'll be quick, promise!"

Pedri: *finishes his shower and follows the inviting aroma to the kitchen, where he hears Y/N singing along to Taylor Swift's "Style"*

Pedri: *after a moment, he can't resist joining in and starts singing along with Y/N* "Midnights, you come and pick me up, no headlights~"

Y/N: *surprised and delighted, she smiles at him, their voices blending together* "Long drive, could end in burning flames or paradise~"

Pedri: *softly takes her hand, intertwining their fingers as they continue singing together* "Fade into view, oh, it's been a while since I have even heard from you~"

Y/N: *feeling the warmth of their connection, she leans closer to him* "I should just tell you to leave 'cause I know exactly where it leads, but I watch us go 'round and 'round each time~"

Pedri and Y/N: *their voices intertwine in a heartfelt duet* "You got that James Dean, daydream look in your eye, and I got that red lip classic thing that you like~"

Their voices blend perfectly, creating a mesmerizing harmony that fills the room with warmth and love. As they sing the chorus together, time seems to stand still, and they feel an unbreakable connection between them. The song becomes an expression of their feelings, a testament to the deep bond they share.

Pedri: *looking into Y/N's eyes* "And when we go crashing down, we come back every time, 'cause we never go out of style~"

Y/N: *smiling, her heart swelling with affection* "We never go out of style~"

Pedri and Y/N found themselves drawn to each other, their hearts pounding in sync with the melody of the song still lingering in the air. Without hesitation, they closed the distance between them, their lips meeting in a tender, heartfelt kiss.

In that moment, time seemed to slow down, and everything else faded into the background. Their embrace was gentle yet passionate, as they melted into each other's touch. Soft, warm, and full of love, their lips moved together in perfect harmony, conveying emotions that words could never fully express.

As they kissed, a spark ignited between them, intensifying the connection they already shared. They felt the depth of their love in every brush of their lips, every gentle caress, and every fleeting moment of breathlessness. Their hearts beat as one, and they could feel the electricity of their affection coursing through their bodies.

The world around them ceased to exist, and they were lost in each other – two souls entwined in a dance of love and desire. Their fingers intertwined, holding onto each other as if they never wanted to let go.

With a playful glint in his eyes, Pedri couldn't resist a cute gesture after their intimate kiss. He reached out and gently booped Y/N's nose, making her giggle softly.

Y/N: *laughs* "Oh, you're being adorable now?"

Pedri: *grinning* "I can't help it when you're so cute!"

Y/N: *playfully pouting* "Well, you're cute too."

Pedri: *teasingly* "Oh, you think so? Maybe I'll have to boop your nose more often, then."

Y/N: *smiling* "I wouldn't mind that at all."

As they continued cooking together, the playful atmosphere lingered, and Pedri couldn't resist teasing Y/N, adding a touch of light-hearted banter to their time in the kitchen.

Pedri: “So, are you sure you know what you're doing there?"

Y/N: *laughs* "Of course! I'm an excellent cook."

Pedri: *raising an eyebrow playfully* "Hmm, I seem to recall a certain incident with burnt pancakes last week."

Y/N: *playfully nudges him* "Oh, hush! That was just a small mishap."

Pedri: *feigning concern* "I think I should be the official taste-tester just to make sure."

Y/N: *laughs* "Oh, really? I think I can handle it just fine."

As they bantered back and forth, their laughter filled the kitchen, making the cooking process even more enjoyable. Despite the teasing, they were a perfect team, effortlessly complementing each other's skills.

Pedri: *helping with the ingredients* "You know, it's really nice cooking together like this."

Y/N: “It is. I love spending time with you, whether it's on the pitch or in the kitchen."

Pedri: "Does that mean you want me to be your cooking partner from now on?"

Y/N: "Well, I guess you can stay as long as you promise not to eat all the ingredients before we finish cooking."

Pedri: *laughs* "Deal! But only if you promise to let me taste the food before serving."

Y/N: *laughs* "Deal! It's a cooking partnership then."

After all the cooking and teasing, Pedri and Y/N sat down together at the dining table, ready to enjoy the delicious meal they had prepared with love.

Pedri: *raising his glass* "To a fantastic cooking partnership and an even better meal!"

Y/N: *smiling, clinks her glass with his* "Cheers to us and many more moments like this."

They took a bite of the food, savoring the flavors, and exchanged knowing glances that spoke volumes of their satisfaction with the meal. The happiness in their hearts was palpable, and they felt a sense of contentment just being in each other's company.

Pedri: "I have to admit, this is even better than I imagined."

Y/N: "Told you so! I have some culinary skills up my sleeve."

Pedri: *chuckles* "I'll never doubt your cooking prowess again."

They continued to eat, sharing stories and laughter along the way. Every moment was a reminder of the love they had for each other and the joy they found in each other's presence.

As they finished their meal, Pedri and Y/N moved to the cozy couch, snuggling up together under a soft blanket. They scrolled through their movie collection, searching for the perfect film to watch.

Pedri: *smiling* "How about a romantic comedy? It seems fitting after our lovely dinner."

Y/N: *nods, smiling back* "Sounds perfect to me. I love a good rom-com."

They selected a heartwarming romantic comedy, and as the movie began, they leaned against each other, enjoying the comfort of being close.

As they watched the movie, they shared laughter, inside jokes, and gentle touches, their bond growing stronger with every passing minute. The love they felt for each other was evident in the way they looked at each other, in the way their fingers intertwined, and in the way they found comfort in each other's presence.

During funny moments in the movie, they would burst into laughter together, and during touching scenes, they would exchange affectionate glances, feeling the love and connection between them deepen.

As the night grew late and the coziness of the couch enveloped them, Y/N's eyes began to grow heavy. She nestled her head on Pedri's chest, finding comfort in the rhythm of his heartbeat.

Pedri, gently stroked her hair and planted a soft kiss on her forehead. Y/N snuggled even closer, sighing contently as she drifted off to sleep.

In that serene moment, Pedri admired the peaceful expression on Y/N's face. He knew he was lucky to have her in his life, and he cherished every moment they shared together. Her presence brought a sense of calm and happiness that he couldn't imagine living without.

With a tender smile, he whispered softly, as if Y/N could hear him in her dreams, "You’re so cute, I love you so much.”

They stayed like that for a while, basking in the warmth of each other's embrace and the silence of the night. As Pedri watched Y/N sleeping soundly on his chest, he felt a surge of love and gratitude for the person he had in his arms.

With tender care, Pedri gently lifted Y/N into his arms, cradling her lovingly as he carried her to the bedroom. Her peaceful expression warmed his heart, and he was determined to make sure she had a restful sleep.

Once they reached the bed, he carefully laid her down, making sure she was comfortable. He tucked her in, pulling the soft covers snugly around her, ensuring she felt warm and safe.

Pedri stood by the bedside for a moment, admiring the person he loved so dearly, still smiling at the sight of her peaceful slumber. He couldn't help but plant another soft kiss on her forehead, expressing his love and affection.

"Sleep tight, mi amor," he whispered, his voice filled with tenderness.

In that moment, Pedri knew that he had found his home in Y/N's heart.

Pedri then sleep right next to her. He carefully slipped under the covers, snuggling up to her, and pulled her gently into his embrace.

Feeling the warmth of his body and the softness of his touch, Y/N stirred slightly, as if sensing his presence. She nestled closer to him, finding comfort in his arms, even in her sleep.

Pedri smiled and with his arm around her, Pedri closed his eyes, content and grateful for the love they shared. As they drifted off to sleep together, their breathing synchronized, and their hearts beat as one.

Pedri's face lit up with joy, "Really? That's fantastic! I can't wait to show you around and introduce you to my family."

As their departure date approached, Y/N felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. She knew how much this trip meant to Pedri, and she wanted to make a good impression on his family and friends. However, she couldn't help but feel a touch of insecurity. She worried that they might have high expectations of her as the girlfriend of a famous footballer.

On the day of their flight, they boarded the plane hand in hand, ready for a new adventure together. The moment they landed in the Canary Islands, Pedri's eyes sparkled with pride as he showed Y/N around his beloved hometown. He pointed out his favorite spots, shared childhood stories, and introduced her to the locals who welcomed her warmly.

Y/N was taken aback by the beauty of the islands and the genuine warmth of Pedri's family. They embraced her as one of their own, and any fears of not fitting in melted away. She felt a sense of belonging, knowing that she was loved and accepted by those who mattered most to Pedri.

As they explored the sandy beaches, picturesque landscapes, and indulged in delicious local cuisine, Y/N and Pedri grew even closer. The trip became a journey of not just discovering a new place but discovering each other on a deeper level.

However, as the days went by, Y/N couldn't help but notice a familiar girl from Pedri's past, Isabella, who seemed to be getting close to him. She observed them sharing inside jokes and laughing together, and despite Pedri's reassurances, a sense of insecurity started to creep into her heart.

One evening, as they sat under a canopy of stars, Y/N couldn't hold back her feelings any longer. "Pedri, I've noticed you spending a lot of time with Isabella. Are you sure there's nothing between you two?"

Pedri's expression softened, and he took her hand in his, "Amor, she's an old friend, but there's nothing romantic between us. You're the one I love, and you're the one I want to be with."

Y/N's insecurity still lingered, "I trust you, but it's hard for me to see you two so close."

Pedri gazed into her eyes with sincerity, "I understand, and I'll do my best to reassure you. She's just a friend, but you're my everything."

As the trip continued, Y/N tried to overcome her insecurity, holding onto Pedri's words and the love they shared. The other girl remained a presence in their journey, but Y/N found strength in knowing that she and Pedri were building a love stronger than any doubts that might arise.

The next day, Pedri’s family and friends had gathered for a lively dinner and laughter filled the air as stories were exchanged and memories shared.

Amidst the joyous chatter, Y/N sometimes struggled to keep up with the rapid Spanish conversations. She tried her best to smile and nod, hoping that her limited fluency in the language wouldn't become too apparent.

As the night wore on, one of Pedri's cousin playfully teased Y/N about her Spanish, "Y/N, tu español es tan lindo, ¡necesitas practicar más!" (Y/N, your Spanish is so cute, you need to practice more!)

The table erupted in laughter, and to Y/N's dismay, even Pedri joined in on the joke.

Struggling to find the right words, she mustered a smile, trying to conceal her discomfort. "Gracias, sí, estoy aprendiendo," (Thankyou, yes I’m still learning) she replied, hoping her response sounded convincing.

Pedri's friend continued with the teasing, and Y/N could feel the weight of the situation growing. She felt embarrassed and isolated, like an outsider in the midst of their camaraderie.

As the night continued, Y/N tried her best to participate in the conversations, despite the language barrier. But the more she tried, the more self-conscious she felt. It seemed like everyone around her was effortlessly engaged, and she couldn't help but feel even more isolated.

Isabella then said with a subtle smirk and spoke in Spanish, "Nunca pensé que Pedri estaría con alguien que no habla español. Debe ser difícil comunicarse, ¿verdad?" (I never thought Pedri would be with someone who doesn't speak Spanish. It must be challenging to communicate, right?")

Y/N's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, but she tried to remain composed, even though she didn't fully understand what was said.

Another person at the table chimed in while laughing, "Sí, seguro es complicado." (Yes, surely it's complicated.)

More laughter followed from some of the other guests, leaving Y/N feeling isolated and uncomfortable. She wanted to respond but didn't know how to articulate her thoughts in Spanish.

Pedri, noticing Y/N's discomfort, interjected in a firm tone, "That's enough. It's not funny. Y/N is learning Spanish, and she's doing great."

The room fell silent, and Pedri's defense of Y/N was evident. He then turned to you with a reassuring smile, "Don't worry love, you're doing great, and I'm proud of your efforts to learn Spanish."

Y/N mustered a shy smile, grateful for Pedri's support, but the awkwardness of the situation lingered. She wished she could express herself better in Spanish and be a more active participant in the conversation.

As the dinner continued, Y/N felt a mix of emotions, torn between her desire to fit in and her frustration at not being able to communicate fluently. She appreciated Pedri's support, but the teasing and laughter had dampened her spirits.

After the dinner, as they walked to their room, Y/N finally spoke up, "Pedri, I feel so embarrassed. I wish I could understand and respond better in Spanish."

Pedri pulled her close, reassuring her, "It's okay, amor. Learning a new language takes time, and it's natural to feel overwhelmed. Just remember, I'm here to help, and I love you just the way you are."

"I know, but it's frustrating not being able to express myself fully," Y/N sighed.

Pedri gently lifted her chin to meet her eyes, "You'll get there baby. Don't let this discourage you. Your efforts to learn Spanish mean a lot to me, and I admire your determination. I’m sorry for what happened at dinner just now amor, It was just a harmless joke, but I see now that it affected you more than I realized."

Y/N nodded, her voice shaky, "It's just hard, Pedri. I want to be a part of your world, but sometimes I feel like I'll never truly fit in."

Pedri took her hand in his, "You belong here with me Y/N. I love you, and I don't want you to ever feel left out or embarrassed. I'll talk to my friends and make sure they understand."

Y/N appreciated his understanding and said to him, "Thank you, Pedri. It means a lot to me that you're willing to stand up for me."

He pulled her into a comforting embrace, "I'll always stand up for you. You're the most important person in my life, and I want you to feel loved and accepted."

In the days that followed, Pedri spoke with his friends, making them understand the impact their jokes had on his girlfriend. They were apologetic and understanding, realizing that their teasing had unintentionally hurt her.

With Pedri's support and her own resilience, Y/N started to feel more at ease during their interactions. She continued to practice her Spanish, and as the days went by, she found herself more engaged in the conversations, feeling more included and accepted.

Pedri turned towards her, his face pale with guilt. "Y/N, it's not what it looks like," he stammered, trying to explain.

But Y/N couldn't bear to hear any more. Tears welled up in her eyes as she choked back the words, "I trusted you, Pedri. How could you do this to me?"

Pedri reached out to touch her arm, but she pulled away, feeling betrayed and hurt. "I didn't think it would hurt you this much, We were just having a party. That’s all.” he admitted.

"How could you not think it would hurt me?" Y/N's voice trembled with anger and sadness. "We were supposed to be in this together, but you've become so distant, so careless."

Pedri tried to explain, "I've been under so much pressure, and I made a mistake. These girls, they don't mean anything to me, I swear."

But Y/N couldn't bear to hear any more excuses. "I can't do this, Pedri. I can't be with someone who doesn't value our love," she said, her voice trembling with pain.

As tears streamed down her cheeks, she turned and walked away, leaving Pedri standing there, filled with regret and remorse. He knew he had made a grave mistake, and the consequences of his actions were too painful to bear.

In the following days, Pedri tried to reach out to Y/N, desperate to apologize and make amends. But the damage was done, and Y/N couldn't bring herself to forgive him. The heartbreak was too deep, and she knew she had to prioritize her own happiness and well-being.

And so, their once beautiful love story ended in heartbreak and sorrow. Pedri's fame and the pressures of his football life led him astray, and Y/N had to find the strength to heal and move forward without him.

In the years that followed, Pedri became one of the greatest footballers in the world, achieving incredible success on the field. But deep down, he always carried the regret of losing the one person who had loved him unconditionally.

As for Y/N, she focused on her art and her travels, finding solace in the beauty of the world around her. Though scarred by the past, she learned to cherish the memories of their time together and embraced the journey of healing and self-discovery.

Two years after the breakup , Pedri's attempts to reach out to Y/N remained unanswered. Each unanswered call and unopened message deepened the chasm between them. As the weight of his fame grew heavier, Pedri's personality started to change.

The adoration and praise from fans, coupled with his on-field success, fueled his ego. Pedri became more distant from his teammates, spending his time surrounded by a new group of people who were enamored by his stardom. The once humble and grounded player began to develop an air of arrogance, losing sight of the values that had endeared him to others in the first place.

His teammates noticed the change, and some tried to offer guidance, reminding him of the person he used to be. But Pedri brushed them off, convinced that he knew better. He no longer felt the need to work hard or prove himself, believing that his talent alone was enough to maintain his status.

Meanwhile, Y/N focused on rebuilding her life and finding happiness outside of the football world. Though the pain of their breakup still lingered, she was determined to move forward. She immersed herself in her art, traveling to different places and finding inspiration in every corner of the world.

One day, as Pedri was scrolling through his social media feed, he came across a post from Y/N. Her artwork was showcased in an art gallery, and the comments were filled with admiration for her talent and creativity.

For a moment, Pedri's heart tugged at the sight of her success, but he quickly dismissed the feeling. His ego had grown too large, and he couldn't bear to see her thriving without him.

Time passed, and Pedri's arrogance only intensified. He relished the attention and privileges that came with his fame, often disregarding the feelings and needs of those around him. His former humility seemed like a distant memory, replaced by a haughty demeanor that rubbed others the wrong way.

As the years went by, Pedri's career continued to flourish, but his personal life remained empty. He had attained fame and wealth, but the void left by his broken relationship with Y/N lingered, and no amount of success could fill it.

On a rainy evening, as Pedri sat alone in his luxurious penthouse, he found himself reminiscing about the love he had lost. He realized that he had become a shell of the person he once was and that his fame had brought him more loneliness than joy.

In a moment of clarity, he decided to look up Y/N's number once again, hoping to reconnect after all this time. But as he dialed her number, his heart sank when he heard the familiar automated message stating that the number was no longer in service.

Pedri's eyes filled with tears, realizing that he had let go of the one person who truly loved him for who he was. He had become too blinded by fame and his own self-importance to see the value of their love.

And so, in the bustling city where fame and success reigned, Pedri's journey had come full circle. The once humble and kind-hearted young man had become a shadow of his former self, while the woman who had loved him unconditionally had found her own path to happiness and fulfillment.

As the rain poured outside, Pedri sat alone, reflecting on the choices he had made and the person he had become. The road to fame had come at a high cost, and he couldn't help but wonder if it was worth losing the love that had once meant everything to him.

—————————

One gloomy afternoon, as raindrops fell gently on the city's streets, Pedri found himself seeking solace in their favorite coffee shop – the very place where their love story had begun. He ordered his usual, a cortado, and settled into a corner booth, lost in a sea of memories that flooded his mind.

Little did he know that fate had other plans for him that day. As he sipped his coffee, he looked up, and his heart skipped a beat. There, standing just a few feet away, was Y/N. She looked as radiant as ever, her eyes twinkling like stars in the night sky.

For a moment, time stood still. Pedri's heart raced, unsure of what to do next. The memories of their past love and the pain of their breakup weighed heavily on him. His ego and arrogance seemed to vanish, leaving him vulnerable and exposed.

Y/N noticed Pedri's gaze, and her eyes met his. The air was charged with unspoken emotions. She hesitated for a moment, unsure if she should approach him after all these years.

Pedri swallowed hard, gathering his courage. He stood up and took a step towards Y/N, his heart pounding in his chest. "Y/N," he whispered, his voice filled with a mix of apprehension and hope.

Y/N's eyes softened as she looked at him. "Pedri," she replied, her voice equally tender. "It's been a long time."

He nodded, a lump forming in his throat. "I know, and I've missed you," he admitted, his vulnerability shining through.

She gave him a sad smile, "I missed you too, but things have changed, Pedri. We've both moved on."

He took a deep breath, "I know I made a lot of mistakes back then. My ego got the best of me, and I lost sight of what truly mattered."

Y/N looked into his eyes, searching for sincerity. "Pedri, it's okay. We were both young, and life took us in different directions."

He reached out to touch her hand gently, "But I never stopped loving you, Y/N. I was a fool to let you go."

She looked down, her heart torn between the past and the present. "Pedri, we can't change the past. We can only learn from it and move forward," she said, her voice trembling.

Pedri nodded, tears welling up in his eyes. "I understand, but I just had to tell you how much you meant to me. I'll always cherish the memories we shared."

Y/N's gaze softened, and she gave him a bittersweet smile. "I'll cherish them too, Pedri. But we both need to find our own happiness now."

They stood there, facing each other, the weight of their history heavy in the air. As the rain continued to fall outside, they knew it was time to say their goodbyes once again.

Pedri's heart ached as he watched Y/N walk away, knowing that he had let go of the person who had loved him unconditionally. He had lost her once, and now, he had to come to terms with the consequences of his choices.

As Y/N walked away, Pedri's heart couldn't bear the thought of losing her again. With a rush of adrenaline, he made a split-second decision and ran after her through the pouring rain.

"Y/N, please wait!" he called out, his voice filled with desperation.

She turned around, surprised to see him running towards her. The rain continued to fall heavily, but neither of them seemed to care about getting soaked.

Pedri stopped in front of her, his breathing heavy from both the run and the emotional turmoil inside him. "I can't let you go like this," he said, trying to steady his voice.

Y/N looked into his eyes, seeing the sincerity and regret in them. "Pedri, what are you doing?" she asked, her heart torn between wanting to give him another chance and protecting herself from potential hurt.

"I made a mistake, a big one, and I regret it every day," he confessed, his voice cracking. "I know I became arrogant and let my fame get to my head. But none of it mattered without you. You were the light of my life, and I lost sight of that."

Tears mixed with raindrops on Y/N's cheeks as she listened to his words. "Pedri, I loved you so much, but I couldn't bear the pain of watching you change. It broke my heart," she whispered.

"I know, and I'm so sorry for hurting you," he said, reaching out to gently wipe away her tears. "But I've learned from my mistakes, and I promise you, Y/N, I'll do whatever it takes to be a better person and be worthy of your love again."

Y/N took a step back, trying to compose herself. "Pedri, I can't just forget what happened. It hurt too much."

"I understand, and I don't expect you to forgive me right away," he said, his eyes pleading. "But please, give us another chance. Let me show you that I've changed."

As the rain poured down around them, Y/N hesitated, torn between the love she once had for Pedri and the pain of their past. She knew that forgiving him wouldn't be easy, but she also knew that deep down, her heart still longed for him.

"I need time, Pedri," she finally said, her voice barely audible over the rain.

"I'll wait for you, for as long as it takes," he vowed, reaching for her hand. "I'll prove to you that you're the most important thing in my life."

Y/N looked into his eyes, searching for sincerity. "If you truly mean that, then show me through your actions, not just your words," she said, holding back the tears.

Pedri nodded, determination in his gaze. "I promise, Y/N. I'll do whatever it takes to earn your trust and love back."

And so, with their hearts heavy with the weight of their past and the hope of a future, Pedri and Y/N stood in the rain, at the crossroads of love and forgiveness. Only time would tell if their love story would find its way back to the happiness they once shared.

At the party, Y/N noticed a tall, handsome footballer with an air of confidence. It was Jude Bellingham, a player from Real Madrid, Pedri's rival team. He approached Y/N with a warm smile, "Hey there, I don't think we've met before. I'm Jude."

Y/N introduced herself and explained, "I'm just a friend of Pedri and Gavi, not a footballer or a model like everyone else here."

Jude chuckled, "Well, that's refreshing! Don't worry about it; I'm glad to meet someone different for a change. So, how do you know Pedri and Gavi?"

Y/N shared stories of their adventures together, and soon enough, they were both laughing and chatting away like old friends.

Meanwhile, Pedri watched from a distance, feeling a twinge of jealousy. He couldn't help but feel protective of Y/N, especially when she seemed to be having such a good time with Jude. Determined to show Y/N a good time himself, he decided to step in and suggested, "Hey, Y/N, it's getting late. How about we head home?"

Jude was polite and didn't want to intrude, but he couldn't resist asking, "Would you mind if I get your number? We can hangout maybe? I'd love to take you out for brunch or dinner sometime."

Y/N was flattered, and after a moment's consideration, she handed Jude her number. "Sure, that sounds nice."

As they walked toward Pedri's car, he couldn't help but ask Y/N curiously, "So, what were you and Jude talking about?"

Y/N smiled, "We were just getting to know each other, Pedri. He's a nice guy, and he made me feel comfortable despite all the glitz and glamour."

Pedri tried to hide his jealousy but couldn't completely suppress it. He reminded himself that he trusted Y/N and that their friendship was strong. However, deep down, he couldn't shake the slight feeling of rivalry with Jude.

In the following days, Y/N and Jude did go out for brunch, and they had a great time. Y/N still cherished her friendship with Pedri, and they spent more time together, reaffirming their bond.

As the days passed, Pedri couldn't shake off the jealousy and worry he felt about Y/N's growing friendship with Jude, who played for Real Madrid, Pedri's rival club. He tried to keep his emotions hidden, but one evening, unable to contain himself any longer, he decided to confront Y/N about it.

They were sitting together at a café, sipping on their drinks when Pedri hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "Y/N, there's something I need to talk to you about."

Y/N looked at him with concern, sensing the seriousness in his voice. "Sure, Pedri. What's on your mind?"

Pedri took a deep breath, "It's about Jude, Y/N. I've noticed you two getting closer, and, well, I can't help but feel uneasy about it."

Y/N furrowed her brow, "Pedri, he's just a friend. We're getting to know each other, and it's not like he's a bad person just because he plays for Real Madrid."

"I know, I know," Pedri replied, trying to choose his words carefully. "But you know how much Barcelona and Real Madrid are rivals on the field. It's not just a simple football rivalry; it's deeply ingrained in the club's history."

Y/N's frustration started to build, and she felt the need to assert her independence. "Pedri, I appreciate your concern, but it's not fair for you to control who I can or can't be friends with. I value our friendship, but that doesn't mean I have to cut people out of my life just because they are associated with a rival club."

Pedri looked taken aback by her response, "I'm not trying to control you, Y/N. I'm just worried about our friendship and how it might be affected."

Y/N shook her head, "It feels like you're trying to dictate who I can spend time with. Jude is a nice person, and I enjoy his company. Our friendship doesn't diminish my friendship with you or my support for Barcelona. You should trust me to make my own decisions about who I befriend."

As the conversation continued, Pedri's insecurities got the best of him, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "You know, Y/N, sometimes I feel like you like Jude more than you like me."

Pedri stood up abruptly, unable to contain his emotions any longer. He muttered, "I need some time to think," and left the restaurant, leaving Y/N speechless.

Y/N sat there for a moment, feeling a mix of emotions - worried about Pedri, frustrated by the situation, and saddened by the sudden turn of events. She wanted to give Pedri space but also wanted to resolve their issues.

Over the next few days, Y/N tried reaching out to Pedri, but he remained distant. She realized she had to give him the time he needed to process his feelings.

Finally, after a week, Pedri called Y/N and asked to meet. They sat down at a park, and Pedri spoke honestly, "I'm sorry for how I reacted, Y/N. I let my jealousy and insecurity get the best of me. I realize that you can have other friends without it affecting our friendship."

Y/N smiled, relieved that Pedri was willing to address their concerns. "It's okay, Pedri. We all have our moments of insecurity. I'm glad we can talk about it and understand each other better."

Pedri nodded, "I trust you, Y/N. I won't let my jealousy get in the way anymore. Our friendship means a lot to me, and I don't want to jeopardize it."

——————————————-

As the match between Barcelona and Real Madrid unfolded, it became evident that Real Madrid was in top form. Jude Bellingham's exceptional skills were on full display as he scored a magnificent hattrick, leading Real Madrid to a convincing 3-0 victory over Barcelona. The stadium erupted with cheers, and the fans were left in awe of Jude's extraordinary performance.

After the final whistle, Y/N made her way to the pitch to congratulate Jude. She wanted to be a good sport and show her support for her friend's remarkable achievement. Jude greeted her with a wide smile, clearly proud of his accomplishment.

"Congratulations, Jude! That was an outstanding performance!" Y/N said, genuinely happy for her friend.

Jude beamed, "Thanks, Y/N! It feels amazing to contribute to the team's victory."

They shared a brief but heartfelt hug, celebrating Jude's success. However, unbeknownst to them, Pedri was watching from the sidelines, his emotions swirling inside him once again. Seeing Y/N hug Jude and congratulate him triggered a sense of jealousy and hurt in Pedri's heart.

Pedri couldn't contain his emotions any longer. He stormed over to Y/N and Jude, his face red with anger. "What the hell is going on here? Y/N, why are you hugging him and congratulating him? He's our rival!"

Y/N was taken aback by Pedri's outburst, "Pedri, calm down. He's my friend too, and it was just a congratulatory hug."

Pedri's anger flared, "Friend or not, he's from Real Madrid! I can't believe you would do this to me, Y/N!"

Y/N tried to reason with him, "Pedri, you're my friend, and I care about you. But I can't ignore my friendships with others just because of football rivalry. It doesn't mean I don't value our friendship."

Pedri was too upset to listen, "I can't believe you would choose him over me, Y/N. Maybe we shouldn't be friends anymore if you can't see how much this hurts me."

Y/N's eyes welled up with tears, hurt by Pedri's harsh words. "Pedri, don't say that. I never meant to hurt you, but I can't let football rivalry dictate my friendships."

Pedri turned away, not wanting to hear any more. He walked off, leaving Y/N standing there, feeling devastated and heartbroken by the fight.

Y/N apologized to Jude for Pedri’s behaviour and rushed to the locker room found Pedri sitting alone, his head in his hands, visibly devastated by the 3-0 loss. She approached him gently, feeling a deep sense of empathy for her friend.

"Pedri," Y/N said softly, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. "It's just one bad match. It doesn't define you as a player. You're one of the best footballers out there, and I know you'll bounce back stronger in the next game."

Pedri looked up, his eyes filled with sadness. "I feel like I let everyone down. The team, the fans... I just couldn't perform. Plus, seeing you congratulate Jude hurts me.

Y/N sat down beside him, offering a reassuring smile. "Pedri, you're human, and everyone has off days. Your talent and dedication have brought you this far, and I have no doubt you'll continue to shine in the future."

Pedri sighed, "I know, but it's hard not to feel defeated right now."

Y/N nodded, understanding his frustration. "It's okay to feel that way. Allow yourself to process your emotions, but remember that this doesn't define your entire career. You've achieved so much already, and there's still so much more ahead of you."

Pedri looked into Y/N's eyes, appreciating her unwavering support. "Thank you, Y/N. Your belief in me means a lot. I’m sorry for the way I acted just now. It was childish.”

Y/N smiled warmly, "It’s okay, I understand. I just want you to know that I'll always believe in you, Pedri. You're not alone in this journey. We're all here to support you, through the highs and the lows."

In the following days, Y/N stayed by Pedri's side, offering encouragement and motivation. She reminded him of his incredible talent, his achievements on the field, and the admiration he had earned from fans all around the world.

————————————————

As the next match approached, Pedri started to regain his confidence. Y/N made sure to attend the game, holding up a banner with Pedri's name, cheering him on loudly from the stands.

During the match, Pedri's determination and skills were on full display. He made decisive plays, setting up goals for his teammates and making crucial interceptions. The team emerged victorious, and Pedri's performance earned him accolades from fans and teammates alike.

After the match, Y/N rushed down to the field to congratulate Pedri with a big hug. "See, I told you! You were amazing out there!" she said, beaming with pride.

Pedri's face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Y/N. Your belief in me truly made a difference. I couldn't have done it without you."

From that day on, Pedri found strength in Y/N's unwavering support and encouragement. He knew that even in the face of defeat, he had a friend who believed in him, and that meant the world to him.

Pedri: (defensively) Look, I said I forgot, okay? Why are you making such a big deal out of it?

Y/N: Because I care about you, Pedri! I want to know that you're safe. Is it too much to ask for a simple text?

Pedri: You're always overreacting! It's just one night. I don't need you constantly breathing down my neck!

Y/N: (teary-eyed) Maybe you don't need me at all! If you can't see how important this is to me, then maybe we shouldn't be together.

Pedri: (sarcastically) Fine, if that's what you want, then go ahead and leave! It won't bother me one bit.

Y/N: You know what? Maybe I will! If you don't care enough to understand my feelings, then I'm done!

Pedri: Whatever, do what you want. I'm not going to beg you to stay.

Y/N: Wow, you don’t care about me at all huh? Alright then, I’ll just pack up my things and go if that’s what you want. Goodbye Pedri. Maybe someday you'll realize what you've lost.

—————————————————-

Y/N: (starts packing her bag) I can’t believe we’ve come to this. He’s not the same man i fell in love with anymore. It hurts so bad..

Pedri : What are you doing? Can u please stop overreacting? Stop doing whatever it is you’re doing right now.

Y/N : I'm serious, Pedri. I can't do this anymore. I can't be with someone who doesn't even bother to ask how my day was.

Pedri: (panicking) Wait, Y/N, don't go. Alright I’m sorry, okay? I know I messed up, and I've been a terrible partner lately.

Y/N: (tearfully) It's not just lately, Pedri. I feel like you're always on your phone, and you never seem interested in what I have to say.

Pedri: I didn't realize how much it was affecting you. I promise to change, to be more present, and to make an effort to connect with you.

Y/N: (hesitating) It's just hard, Pedri. I need to feel valued and loved in this relationship. It can't always be one-sided.

Pedri: You're right, mi amor, I've been selfish, and I haven't been treating you the way you deserve. I don't want to lose you.

Y/N: I don't want to lose you either, but I need to know that you'll change and that you'll prioritize our relationship.

Pedri: Alright mi amor, I promise. From now on, I'll put my phone down and give you my full attention. I'll show you how much you mean to me.

Y/N: I want to believe you, Pedri, but actions speak louder than words.

Pedri: (holding her hand) I'll show you amor, I'll prove it to you every day, starting now.

Y/N: (looking into Pedri's eyes) Pedri, I need to see real change, not just empty promises.

Pedri: I understand amor. And I'm serious about making things right.

Y/N: Show me, then.

Pedri leans in, and their lips meet in a gentle and tender kiss. It's a moment of vulnerability and a promise of renewed affection.

Pedri: (whispers) I love you, Y/N.
