Ez Abde does not want to return to Barcelona if he does not have a clear role in the squad. He will play the pre-season with the team, and if he does not convince Xavi, he will be sold.
GUESS THE PLAYER’S HIGHEST VALUE

OBSESSED // H.FORT
request: can you write about hector being a tease and like obsessed with the reader but like in a romantic way
genre: fluff, smut
warnings: shower sex, never explicit smut only highlighted
words: +2000
a/n: am i getting better at writing smut or i’m just delusional? 🤨
Hector Fort, the rising star of FC Barcelona, was an affectionate and devoted boyfriend who was completely smitten with you. He couldn't help but be obsessed with everything about you, from the way you carried yourself to the way you spoke.
He was always eager to please you and ensure your happiness, whether it was by massaging your feet, tending to your hair, or letting you pamper him with your skincare expertise. Hector was obedient and compliant when you needed him to be and always tried to lift your spirits when you were feeling down.
He was infatuated by you, and his devotion knew no bounds. Whether it was after a tough training session or a hard match, he would make sure to give you all the attention you deserved. Hector could never get enough of you, and it was clear that he thought the world of you. He loved being able to be vulnerable and let you take care of him, and he enjoyed spending every spare moment he could with you, just appreciating your presence and company.
He trusted you implicitly and would never dream of letting anyone else touch his hair, except for you. You were the only person he'd let shape and style his locks, knowing that you'd only ever do what was best for him. In return, he would gladly do your hair or any other thing you asked, just to see the smile on your face and make you happy.
The sound of laughter and banter filled the room as Hector and his friends were engaged in a competitive game of FIFA. You weren't home yet, as you were still out shopping, but when you finally returned, the sight of his friends didn't deter Hector from his usual affectionate greeting.
He quickly abandoned the game to give you a warm kiss on the lips and eagerly helped you unpack the food, his focus being solely on you. He barely even acknowledged his friends as he was so happy to see you.
Hector's teammates, Marc, Pau and Lamine, chuckled and teased Hector about how whipped he was for you, but he didn't seem to care. He was completely smitten and always eager to show his affection for you, no matter who was around.
As he finished unpacking the groceries, he wrapped his arms around your waist and nuzzled his head in your neck, inhaling your scent and giving you another, tighter, hug.
As you thanked Hector for helping you unpack the groceries, you couldn't resist teasing him about how much he had missed you. He grinned sheepishly and ruffled his hair as you stroked it.
Marc, Pau and Lamine, who were still in the living room playing the game, couldn't help but chime in.
"Parece que alguien no pudo aguantar una hora sin su preciada novia eh Hector" says Marc. (It looks like someone couldn't last an hour without his precious girlfriend, huh Hector)
"More like a minute." Pau added.
"You've got it bad, bro." said Lamine while taking a snack.
Hector just shrugged and rolled his eyes at his friends, unfazed by their teasing. He was used to their banter and knew they were just jealous of the bond he had with you. He leaned into your touch as you toyed with his hair, his eyes never leaving your face.
"Can you blame me? Casi muero de aburrimiento con ellos" (I almost died of boredom with them)
You couldn't help but chuckle and shake your head at his dramatic response.
"Oh, poor baby. You couldn't survive an hour without me?"
Hector feigned a pout and nodded sheepishly, leaning into you more.
The other three snickered from across the room, clearly enjoying the banter.
"Oh, shut up, Hector. We're not that bad." says Marc quickly being supported by Pau and Lamine.
Hector playfully scowled and stuck out his tongue at his friends before turning back to you, the pout lingering.
"See how they treat me?" he mock-complained, putting on a dramatic act.
You chuckled and continued to stroke his hair, finding his antics endearing.
"You really missed me that much handsome?" you asked, pretending not to believe him.
Hector smiled sheepishly and nodded, his eyes glued to yours.
Marc sauntered over to where you and Hector were standing in the kitchen, his usually cocky demeanor in place. He greeted you with a warm hug and a smirk.
"Hey, you. Good to see you."
Marc then turned to Hector, who was looking a bit annoyed at his approach, and couldn't resist the urge to tease him again.
Marc chuckled and ruffled Hector's hair playfully.
"Don't worry, bro. I'm not trying to steal your girl away."
Hector swatted at his hand and tried to fix his messy hair as Marc continued to tease him.
"You wouldn't have a chance anyway," he said, trying to keep his cool.
Marc feigned shock, placing a hand over his heart.
"Oh, wow. Eso ha dolido." (that hurt)
Growing tired of the banter between Marc and Hector, you decided it was time to take a moment for yourself. You gave Hector a quick kiss before excusing yourself to the upstairs bathroom to take a shower.
As you left, you could hear the sound of the four boys arguing loudly in the kitchen, their voices and laughter following you as you ascended the stairs.
Hector turned to his friends, who were all still lingering in the kitchen, and shot them a look.
"Come on, guys, it's getting late. You all have girlfriends to get back to, too."
Marc made a pouty face, but Pau and Lamine both nodded in agreement, reluctantly taking the hint.
Marc rolled his eyes, crossing his arms and giving Hector a playful scowl. "Ya me has cambiado por la novia" (so you're already replacing me with your girlfriend, huh?)
"Eres un idiota, además ella es mucho más guapa que tú." Hector responded, a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. (you're such an idiot, besides she is prettier than you)
Marc pretended to be offended, letting out an exaggerated huff and Hector just chuckled, giving Marc a friendly slap on the back as a farewell.
"See you around," Lamine said with a smirk, giving Hector a friendly pat on the shoulder as he walked past.
Pau chuckled and added, "Don't miss us too much."
Hector rolled his eyes but smiled, secretly glad for the opportunity to have you all to himself.
"Yeah, yeah. Get out of here."
Hector wasted no time in following you upstairs, feeling excited at the idea of joining you in the shower. He made his way to the bathroom, hoping you hadn't finished yet and he could surprise you.
He softly opened the door to the bathroom, listening for the sound of the shower running before slowly entering.
As Hector quietly entered the bathroom, he heard you call out his name. He smiled and leaned against the doorframe, admiring your beautiful figure through the steamed up glass of the shower.
"Can I join you?" he asked, his voice already a bit huskier.
At your approval Hector quickly disrobed, his eyes never leaving your body as he stepped into the shower behind you. The warm water cascaded over both of your bodies, the steam adding an intimate touch to the atmosphere.
He gently wrapped his arms around your waist and pulled you close, his touch almost reverent as he began to run his hands over your body.
"Let me take care of you, mi amor."
Leaning in, he began to gently knead and massage your shoulders, his strong hands working away the knots and tension that had built up throughout the day. The hot water and the skillful movements of his fingers soon had you relaxed and moaning in pleasure.
Hector continued his ministrations, his focus entirely on you. He left a trail of kisses down your neck and across your shoulder blades, his lips soft and reverent against your skin.
His hands moved down your back, tracing small circles and lines with his fingertips, sending shivers down your spine.
"You work too hard," he murmured in your ear, his voice a low rumble. "You deserve to be pampered."
He gently turned you around so that your back was pressed against the tiled wall, and he stared into your eyes, his own filled with a mixture of adoration and desire.
Hector lifted your chin with a single finger, his other hand still resting on your hip. His touch was gentle but firm, and his gaze was unwavering.
He leaned down and captured your lips in a deep, passionate kiss, his tongue dancing with yours as the water continued to cascade over your bodies.
You respond eagerly, your arms wrapping around his neck as you moan into the kiss. Your bodies press closer together, the heat of the water and the heat of desire combining to make you both feel as though you're on fire.
You let your hands roam over his broad shoulders and chest, feeling the ripple of muscle beneath the water-slicked skin.
The kiss deepens, become more intense, and Hector presses you even tighter against the wall, the cool surface a stark contrast to the heat of his touch. You can feel the evidence of his desire, hot and hard against your hip, and it only adds to the growing hunger within you.
"I need you, mi amor," Hector murmured against your lips, his voice thick with need. "I want to make you feel good."
He gently nudges your legs apart, his hand trailing down your thigh as he positions himself closer to you. The tension and desire between you is almost palpable, and the steam from the shower only seems to amplify it.
You gasp as he positions himself between your legs, your chest heaving with anticipation. You feel his hands gently grip your hips, and you let your head fall back against the wall, surrendering yourself completely to him.
"Please," you breathe, your voice a near whisper. "Do whatever you want to me."
Hector grins at your request, the possessive and dominant side of him coming out to play.
"As you wish," he says, his voice low and firm.
He leans in and captures your lips in another intense kiss, his hands gripping your hips even tighter as he begins to move against you.
You gasp into the kiss as his hips buck against yours, the friction sending waves of pleasure through your body. You lift one leg, wrapping it around his waist, your body seeking more of that delicious friction.
"Si" you whisper against his lips. "Hazme tuya." (make me yours)
Hector's eyes darkened at your words, and he let out a guttural moan against your lips, his control slipping. He deepened the kiss even further, his tongue tangling with yours in a heated dance.
His hips rocked against you, the movement becoming more desperate as he sought to claim you completely.
Hector's hands grip your thighs, helping to support your weight as you wrap your legs fully around his waist. He backs you up into the wall even further, pinning you against it as he continues to grind into you.
He moans at the feeling of you wrapped around him, his eyes dark with desire. "Te amo" he gasps against your neck.
"Y yo a ti Hector" you gasp back, the words spilling from your lips as the ecstasy builds between you.
Your hips move in rhythm with his, the friction and pressure creating a delicious coil of tension deep within you. You cling to him, your nails digging into his flesh as you seek release.
Hector's breathing is ragged and uneven, his body straining with the effort to hold back. But your words and the feeling of you clinging to him is too much to resist.
He buries his face in your neck, his lips and teeth nipping and sucking at your skin, leaving marks that will surely be there the next day.
Hector grunts as you start to ride him harder, the movement driving him wild with desire. His hands grip your hips even tighter, helping to guide your movements.
"Mierda," (shit) he whispers, his voice a strained growl. "You're gonna be the end of me."
You gasp and moan, your hips moving in a desperate, erratic rhythm as you chase your release. Your hands grip his shoulders, your nails digging into his flesh, leaving red marks as your body grows taut with pleasure.
You can feel his own need growing, burning hotter and hotter as he works to bring you over the edge.
And just as you feel yourself reach the peak of ecstasy, you feel a low, guttural moan against your skin as Hector follows you over the edge, his body shuddering as he comes undone.
You both cling to each other, the hot water still cascading over your panting, trembling bodies.
For a few moments, you simply stand there, regaining your breath and steadying your racing hearts. Hector holds you tight, his arms enveloping you as he presses gentle kisses to your shoulder and neck.
"Mi amor," he murmurs, his voice still thick with pleasure. "Eres increíble." (you're incredible)
You smile at his words, feeling a mix of contentment and satisfaction wash over you. You turn your head to face him, your eyes meeting his.
"You're not so bad yourself," you tease, your voice still a little breathless.
Hector grins and pecks your nose before replying, "I hope that wasn't too tiring for you. We might have to do it again, just to be sure."
You laugh and playfully hit his shoulder, rolling your eyes at his unabashed flirting. But secretly, you're actually considering his suggestion. The way he was able to bring you to such heights of pleasure was addicting.
Hector chuckles and pulls you even closer, his hands roaming up and down your back in a soothing gesture.
"Come on, let's finish cleaning up and shower so we can get to bed."
He grins and winks at you, mischief dancing in his eyes.
You laugh at his wink and nod, agreeing that it's time to finish up in the shower and get some rest. You spend the next few minutes cleaning each other up, the moment now filled with comfortable silence and gentle touches.
Once you're all cleaned up, you both step out of the shower. Hector grabs a towel and gently starts drying you off, taking care to be extra thorough.
"You know," he says as he runs the towel over your shoulders and back. "I may have to start taking more cold showers after being with you."
You laugh and teasingly ask "Oh yeah? Why's that?"
Hector grins and looks you up and down, his eyes heating as he takes in your form wrapped in a towel.
"I think it's pretty obvious," he purrs, leaning in to press a kiss to your collarbone. “I’m obsessed with you.”
You hum in response, enjoying the feel of his lips on your skin. You grab the other towel and start drying him off, taking your time to be thorough as well.
"I think I'm just as obsessed with you," you admit, your eyes raking over his muscled torso.
Hector smirks, clearly pleased with your words. He grabs the towel and finishes drying himself off, before pulling you into his arms.
He wraps the towel around both of you, encasing you both in a warm and cozy cocoon. He nuzzles his face into your hair, inhaling your scent.
"Let's get a move on before I get tempted to have you again," he murmurs, his voice thick with desire.
You chuckle and nod, knowing that if you stay wrapped up like this any longer, you'd both end up getting distracted again.
"Alright, lead the way," you say, stepping out of the bathroom with him wrapped around you, the towel still around both of your bodies.
Hector leads you into the bedroom, pulling the blankets back and guiding you to the bed. Once you're both settled under the covers, he pulls you close, cuddling you against his chest.
"I love you," he murmurs, his voice soft and sleepy.
You smile and wrap your arms around him, feeling content and warm in his embrace. "I love you too," you reply, pressing a kiss to his bare chest.

Princesa
(FC Barcelona x reader)
Ona moved to Manchester United to get more minutes and to learn a new style of playing to eventually seek the opportunity to join Barcelona back.
On her first day after the diplomatic signing protocol, it was time to meet her new teammates.
Her new teammates were still in the pitch after having finished their training session. While she was greeting and getting to know everyone the academy players starting training. Immediately her eyes went to the academy’s player with the number 12, y/n l/n. She saw the smile on your face and your natural skills for the game, even if it was only a practice session she could see your talent.
The academy trained after the first team so every day she saw you training, she knew that Manchester’s playing style wouldn’t let your skills develop to their full potential and she knew that she had to do something about it.
After three months in MU, and after doubting if she should do it, she sent her national teammate, Alexia Putellas a text in which she talked about you, your skills, your playing style and about how your true potential wouldn’t be reached if you stayed in Manchester.
When Alexia received that message, she knew that you must be special, she knew that Ona wouldn’t have risked sending her that text if you weren’t. She asked Ona to find out the academy’s calendar so a Barcelona scout could go to see you play.
You loved playing football and you wanted to train even more time than the scheduled time with the academy so after asking for permission you were able to join the first team training sessions thrice a week.
As soon as you met Ona the click happened. She took you under her wing. As time passed, she subtly started teaching you some Spanish phrases.
Barcelona’s scouting team were delighted with you after seeing some of your games, they realized that what Ona told Alexia was true.
When your season with the academy ended, they contacted your parents as you didn’t formally have an agent. When you learned about their proposal you immediately knew who had “recommended” you.
The next time you saw Ona, you asked her about it and all she said with a smile was “Well nena, I might have sent someone a text.”
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
After MU accepted Barcelona’s offer for you you asked Ona travel with you during the summer to Barcelona so you could settle down.
After helping you to settle down in your new apartment she presented you to her family as her new “hermanita”. Her family immediately saw why Ona had “fallen” for you and told you that if you ever needed help with anything to contact them.
Before Ona had to leave Barcelona to full fill the second year of her contract, she gave you Alexia’s number. “Hermanita, if you need help with anything make sure to contact Ale. She already knows that I’m giving you her number so don’t worry about it.”
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
Moving to a new apartment and in a new city with only 17 was scary so when the first day of training with your new team finally arrived you sent Alexia a text.
“Hola Alexia it’s y/n, Ona gave me your number. I was wondering if you could pick me up to take me to the training session.” “Hola y/n! No problem, Ona gave me your direction, so I’ll be there in 15 minutes”
When Alexia met you, she felt the need to protect you, to guide you.
She gave you a tour of the clubs’ installations, gave you tips and helped you in any way possible. If anyone for any reason was rude to you, they were quickly met with Alexia’s glare, everyone realized that you were under her protection.
The team loved you, when they learned about you joining them, they were a bit skeptical about it but after seeing some of your highlights with MU academy they realized why you were joining them.
Bruna, Jana and you quickly became the chaotic trio. Patri and Claudia became your annoying older sisters. Mapi, Leila, Jenni and Mariona your crazy/cool aunts while Frido and Ingrid became your sane aunts. Aitana became your best friend even with the age gap and Alexia your team mom.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
Being homesick was the worst feeling ever. Alexia quickly noticed that you were feeling down and she took matters in her hands.
Alexia invited you over to her and Olga’s apartment. She asked Olga to buy some fish and chips for dinner.
After training Alexia took you to her apartment, shyly you greeted Olga and the dinner started. You realized that you were going to eat fish and chips, you knew that it was Alexia’s way to comfort you even if it was with the most stereotypical British dish her intentions really warmed your heart.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
A few months later the fans gave you the nickname of “La Princesa” not only because of your skills but also because someone did compilation video of moments between you and your teammates where Alexia babied you, Mapi got angry with a defender who had tackled you too hard, Frido was rubbing her sunscreen on your face before practice, a video where you asked for Ingrid’s help for your math’s homework and many other moments. Obviously, the video went viral, and you gained a new nickname.
You still FaceTimed Ona every day and in each talk, you told her about your every day in Barcelona. You couldn’t wait for her to join back the team.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
After a team bonding session at a restaurant, you were exhausted so Ale and Olga took you back to your apartment. Olga waited in the car while Ale carried to your apartment and used her spare key to open the door.
She changed you into your pijamas and tucked you into your bed. Before she left and closed the door, she gave you a kiss on your forehead and you sleepily mumbled “Bona nit mama”
When Ale heard those words, she couldn’t help but to grin and said “Bona nit filla” (good night daughter)
When she arrived back to her car she told Olga. “Amor, y/n just called me mama”
“How wonderful Ale, I know that you already see her as your daughter and took her under your wing. It seems that after all y/nn really is la princesa de Barcelona” Olga said before giving Ale a soft kiss.
"Amor, please remind to send Ona a thank you text"

Sakura Dreams 🌸 🇯🇵 🗼Jules Kounde (1/6)
SYNOPSIS: It was supposed to be a guys trip to Japan after a disappointing ending to Euros, however, fate had another thing in mind.
PAIRINGS: Jules Koundé x fem!blackOC (Ayo Pratt) (faceclaim joie.ade)
WARNINGS: cursing, poor google translations, football b.s & drama, flirty!jules, eventual smut. MINORS DNI!!!
TAGLIST: @hopefulromantic1 @lettersofgold @sinflowersugar @mauvecherie-writes @queenshikongo3 @perfecttrashface @alika-4466 @cocobutterqwueen @peyiswriting @that-90s-girllll @leilaxaliel @serpenttines-library @certifiedlesbianbaddie @niahxo @julescpu @jack0357 @chaoticcoffeequeen @greedyjudge2 @yeea-nah @saturnville @taytropicana @trentswrld @cranberryjulce @vile-harlot @2serenity0
A/N: Jules is in Japan, so of course I had to make a short series about it. Also, if you're a Jules girl, please let me know and I'll tag you in more chapters.
Read Part 2
The humid air of Tokyo hit Jules like a wall as he stepped off the plane, his muscles aching from the 13-hour flight. Narita International Airport buzzed with activity, a cacophony of announcements in Japanese and English filling the air. Jules popped a cherry dum dum in his mouth, the sweet flavor a small comfort as he trudged alongside his friends Wilhelm, AK, and his half-brother Nicholas towards baggage claim, navigating through the sea of travelers.
"Yo, ce décalage horaire n'est pas une blague (Yo, this jet lag is no joke)," Nicholas grumbled, rubbing his eyes.
"C’est vrai (Facts)," Wilhelm agreed, stifling a yawn.
As they collected their luggage and made their way to the hotel shuttle, Jules couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement beneath the exhaustion. This trip was meant to be a distraction, a way to shake off the disappointment of the Euros and clear his head before the upcoming season with FC Barcelona.
The thought of training camp loomed in the back of his mind. Jules silently prayed for an injury-free season, where he could continue to prove himself and silence the doubters. But for now, he pushed those worries aside. It was time to live in the moment.
The shuttle wound its way through Tokyo's neon-lit streets, skyscrapers towering above them. Jules pressed his forehead against the cool window, watching as businessmen in crisp suits hurried past izakayas and pachinko parlors. The city was a mesmerizing blend of tradition and modernity, and Jules found himself eager to explore.
"Tu penses qu'on aura le temps de visiter les temples? (Do you think we'll have time to visit the temples?)," AK asked, his eyes wide as he took in the city.
"Bien sûr (Of course)," Jules replied. "Nous avons deux semaines (We have two weeks)."
Their hotel, a gleaming high-rise in the trendy Shibuya district, loomed before them. The lobby was a vision of minimalist luxury, all sleek lines and soft lighting. As they approached the check-in counter, dragging their suitcases behind them, Jules's attention was immediately captured by a group of women ahead of them in line.
"Merde (Fuck)," he muttered under his breath, the dum dum stick moving to the corner of his mouth.
There were four of them, all stunning in their own right. But one, in particular, caught his eye. She was fine as hell, with curves that reminded him of Pam Grier in her prime, and her skin was a deep, rich cocoa. Jules's eyes traveled up to her full, pouty lips, currently curved in laughter at something her friend had said. She wore her natural hair in two perfect puffs, giving her this effortless 90s vibe that he found irresistible.
Once the girls finished checking in, Jules couldn't help but notice the others as well. One rocked long braids that cascaded down her back, another sported a short curly style with faded sides that highlighted her cheekbones, and the third had a blonde weave that caught the light as she moved.
"Ce sont tous fraîches (They're all baddies)," AK whispered, nudging Jules.
Jules nodded, his eyes still fixed on the girl with the puffs. There was something about her, an energy that drew him in. As the group of women headed towards the elevators, she turned, and their eyes met. She flashed him a bright smile that made his heart skip a beat, just as the elevator doors closed.
"Jules!" Wilhelm's voice snapped him out of his trance.
"Hein? Quoi? (Huh? What?)"
Wilhelm rolled his eyes. "Ton passeport, mec. La réceptionniste en a besoin (Your passport, man. The receptionist needs it)."
"Ah, oui, bien sûr (Oh, yeah, of course)." Jules fumbled for his passport, his mind still on the mystery girl's smile.
They checked in, and Jules couldn't shake the feeling that this trip might turn out to be more interesting than he'd anticipated.
"On est à quel étage? (What floor are we on?)" Wilhelm asked as they headed to the elevators.
"Le quinzième (Fifteenth)," Nicholas replied, studying the key cards.
As the elevator doors closed, Jules found himself hoping he'd run into the girl with the puffs again. Tokyo was a big city, but stranger things had happened. With a grin, he chewed on the dum dum in his mouth. This vacation was already looking up.
Ayo stepped into the luxurious suite, her eyes widening as she took in the panoramic view of Tokyo's skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows. The city sprawled before them, a mesmerizing tapestry of lights against the darkening sky.
"Damn, this is bougie as hell!" Nikki exclaimed, her long braids swinging as she spun around the spacious living area.
Gigi ran her hand through her blonde weave as she glanced at the sleek furniture. "One Management really hooked us up."
"They better have," Nikki chimed in. "Our girl's about to take over the modeling world."
Ayo smiled modestly, still processing the whirlwind of the past few months. She had recently signed with One Management, a top-tier agency with offices across Europe, Asia, and the US. This trip to Tokyo was a gift from her friends and newest management team, a last hurrah before she moved from New York to London to further her blossoming career.
Symone, sporting a chic short hairstyle with faded sides, squeezed her shoulder. "After that Savage X Fenty show? Girl, the world is your oyster."
Ayo's recent success modeling for Rihanna's lingerie line had catapulted her into a new echelon of the fashion world. It was surreal, exciting, and more than a little terrifying.
"This trip is exactly what I needed before the big move," Ayo said, gratitude welling up in her chest as she looked at her friends. "Thank you guys, seriously."
Symone then made a beeline for the mini-bar. "Girls, we need to celebrate! Shots?"
Ayo chuckled, shaking her head. "Sy, it's barely 6 PM, and we're exhausted from the flight."
"Come on, just one!" Symone pleaded, already pulling out a bottle of Johnny Walker.
Gigi yawned dramatically. "Count me out. I need a nap before dinner."
"Same here," Nikki agreed. "What's the plan for food anyway?"
They quickly decided to eat at the hotel restaurant for their first night, too tired to venture out into the city just yet.
As Gigi and Nikki retreated to their rooms, Ayo found herself drawn back to the window. Her mind wandered to the cute guy with dreads she'd spotted in the lobby. There was something about him…
"Earth to Ayo!" Symone's voice snapped her out of her reverie. "Shot time, bitch!"
Ayo laughed, accepting the glass. "That's my girl," Symone grinned, sticking out her tongue.
They clinked glasses and downed the whiskey, the burn a welcome distraction from Ayo's jet lag. As they settled onto the plush couch, Symone's eyes welled up unexpectedly.
"Who would've thought four girls from Jersey would end up in Tokyo?" she mused, her voice thick with emotion.
Ayo nudged her playfully. "You say that every trip, SySy."
"Because it's true!" Symone insisted, pouring another round. "I'm just… I'm gonna miss you, you know?"
"Oh, SySy," Ayo crooned, wrapping her friend in a tight hug. "I'm gonna miss you too."
Symone sniffled, trying to lighten the mood. "You just had to go to boring-ass London, huh? Old 'God save the King' ass…"
Ayo rolled her eyes affectionately, well-versed in Symone's habit of using humor to deflect her true feelings. They chatted for a while longer, reminiscing about their journey from New Jersey to this moment.
Eventually, Symone yawned. "Alright, I need a power nap before dinner. Don't let me sleep too long!"
As Symone disappeared into her room, Ayo's phone buzzed. She sighed heavily when she saw the name: Jamaal. Her ex, who never seemed to get the hint. Without reading it, she deleted the text.
"Leave the past in the past," she murmured, taking one last shot. It was time to focus on her future – London, One Management, and all the possibilities that lay ahead.
With that thought, Ayo made her way to her bedroom. She barely registered the decor before collapsing face-first onto the plush bed, letting the exhaustion of travel and the warmth of whiskey lull her into a much-needed nap.
A couple of hours later, the girls emerged from their rooms, dressed for dinner at the hotel's restaurant. Ayo wore a sleek black slip dress that hugged her curves, paired with strappy heels. Symone rocked a vibrant yellow pantsuit that complemented her short, faded hairstyle. Gigi opted for a flowy floral maxi dress, her blonde weave styled in loose waves. Nikki chose a chic off-shoulder jumpsuit, her braids swept into an elegant updo.
As they approached the restaurant, they paused to admire its exterior. The design seamlessly blended modern aesthetics with traditional Japanese elements, creating an inviting atmosphere.
"We need a group selfie!" Symone declared excitedly.
Being the tallest, Ayo extended her arm to take the photos. They huddled together, striking poses and laughing. After a few attempts, they scrutinized the results, each finding something to critique.
"Let's try one more," Gigi suggested.
As Ayo prepared to take another shot, a slightly deep voice with a heavy accent called out, "Would you like me to take the photo instead?"
The girls turned towards the voice, and Ayo's breath caught in her throat. It was the guy from the lobby earlier. He was even more striking up close. His dreads were neatly styled, and he wore a Versace button-down with a few buttons undone, revealing a glimpse of his chest and a gold Cuban link chain. His feet were adorned with stylish huaraches. The scent of his cologne wafted over, a intoxicating mix of citrus and wood.
"Damn, he fine as fuck," Symone muttered, not quite under her breath.
The corners of his mouth quirked up, clearly having heard Symone's not-so-discreet comment.
"Sure," Ayo said softly, handing him her phone.
He instructed the girls on how to pose, squatting down to capture different angles. Ayo couldn't help but notice his friends behind him - all different shades of brown, with fresh haircuts and equally stylish outfits.
After taking several photos, he handed the phone back to Ayo with a smile. The girls crowded around, nodding in approval at the results.
"Are they good?" he asked.
"Yes, thank you," Ayo replied, trying to keep her voice steady.
He nodded and rejoined his friends, heading into the restaurant.
"Ooh! He was feeling you," Gigi drawled, fanning herself. "That is a man, Savannah!"
The others laughed in agreement.
"Girl, you neva lied!" Symone concurred. "He a sexy little croissant, huh?" she teased in a fake French accent.
Ayo shook her head, laughing despite herself.
"And he had them eyes for you, Ayo," Nikki added.
"What? No, he didn't," Ayo protested.
"Yes, he did," her friends chorused as they entered the restaurant.
They spotted the guys waiting on a bench as Ayo approached the maître d' to check in.
"Good evening, how many in your party?" the maître d' asked politely.
"Four, please," Ayo replied.
The maître d' checked the reservation list and frowned slightly. "I'm afraid there's a bit of a wait. We have a group of four ahead of you, and it will be about an hour and a half before we can seat you."
Ayo's eyes widened in shock. "An hour and a half?" she repeated, her voice rising slightly.
She turned back to her friends, who were waiting expectantly.
"Girls, we've got a problem," Ayo said, rejoining the group. "They're saying it's going to be a 90-minute wait."
"What?" Symone exclaimed. "Are you serious?"
Gigi groaned. "I'm starving already. I can't wait that long."
Nikki shook her head in disbelief. "There's got to be another option, right?"
One of the guys from the other group - dark-skinned with a faded low cut caesar and also sporting a French accent - approached them. "Would you like to get a table together?" he offered.
"Sure!" Symone replied, perhaps too eagerly.
The guy then went over to the maître d'. "Excuse me, do you have a table for eight available?"
The maître d' checked his list and nodded. "Yes, we do. Would you like to be seated now?"
"Oui," he replied with a smile.
The maître d' gathered menus and gestured for the group to follow. "Right this way, please."
As they walked, one of the guys – the one with dreads who had taken their photo – motioned to the girls. "After you, madames," he said with a slight bow and a charming smile.
The girls exchanged excited glances as they followed the maître d', with the guys trailing behind.
"Here we are," the maître d' announced, stopping at a large, circular table. "Your server will be with you shortly. Enjoy your meal."
As they settled into their seats, Ayo found herself next to the dreaded Adonis. Her heart skipped a beat as she caught another whiff of his intoxicating cologne.
"I hope you don't mind us crashing your dinner," he said softly, his accent making the words sound like music.
Ayo smiled, trying to keep her composure. "Not at all. Thanks for the save."
As the rest of the group got comfortable, Ayo silently prayed that her friends – especially Symone – wouldn't embarrass her too much during dinner. But judging by the mischievous glint in Symone's eye from across the table, Ayo knew she was in for an interesting evening.
The group settled in, perusing their menus in comfortable silence. After a few moments, the guy with the faded low cut caesar, spoke up.
"Maybe we should introduce ourselves properly. I'm AK," he said with a warm smile.
The tawny-toned guy with the tapered 'fro nodded. "Wilhelm."
"Nicholas," added the dark-skinned guy with the lowcut fade.
"And I'm Jules," said the cutie with the dreads next to Ayo.
The girls followed suit, each introducing themselves in turn.
As they finished, a waiter approached. "Good evening. May I take your drink order?"
Symone piped up immediately. "We'll have sake for the table, please!"
Half the girls groaned in unison. Nikki shot Symone a look. "Girl, are you trying to get us all fucked up?"
Symone pointed to herself innocently, while Gigi gave her a knowing look. The guys chuckled, exchanging comments in French.
Nikki glanced at each of them. "Hey, hey, none of that oui oui stuff, alright? English only."
Nicholas put up his hands in mock defense. "Damn, baby girl, we don't want no smoke."
Nikki gave him a flirtatious smile in response, and Ayo stared at Gigi in a silent plea to watch her cousin. Nikki was known for being a bit... frisky. If Symone was the loudmouth of the group, Nikki was the self-proclaimed "hoe" - and they meant that with all due respect.
The waiter continued taking orders. Jules requested a rum and coke, his accent making Ayo shiver slightly. She ordered a vodka, lime, and soda water.
Ayo felt Jules' arm rest at the back of her seat, his fingers lightly touching the exposed skin of her neck. "Is this okay?" he asked softly.
"Y-yeah, sure," she managed to reply.
As they waited for their drinks, the conversation flowed. The guys asked what brought the girls to Tokyo, and they explained Ayo's modeling career and celebrating her recent signing to a new management agency.
"Savage X Fenty? That's impressive," Wilhelm said. "Did you meet Rihanna?"
Ayo nodded. "Yeah, I met the whole fam, including A$AP Rocky and their two little ones. The kids are adorable, and Rihanna's really nice."
Nikki chimed in, "Rihanna even follows Ayo on Insta."
The guys' eyebrows raised in admiration.
Symone turned the question back on them. "What about you guys? What brings you to Tokyo?"
The men exchanged glances before AK answered, "It's a guys' trip before work makes us all busy again." They seemed reluctant to elaborate, and the girls didn't push further.
The waiter returned with their drinks, including a large bottle of sake. With practiced precision, he began the traditional sake pouring ceremony. He held the tokkuri (sake bottle) with both hands, turning it slightly as he poured into each person's ochoko (small sake cup). The liquid flowed smoothly, filling each cup precisely to the brim without spilling a drop.
As the waiter finished pouring, he took their food orders. They chose a mix of family-style dishes to share and individual entrees. Ayo ordered the miso-glazed black cod, while Jules opted for the wagyu beef teppanyaki. The table also agreed on an assortment of sushi rolls, tempura, and a large bowl of ramen to share.
Jules' arm tightened around the back of Ayo's seat, and he leaned closer to her. Symone caught Ayo's eye from across the table, mouthing "Get it!" with a suggestive waggle of her eyebrows. Ayo immediately shook her head, inwardly reminding herself that the last thing she needed was to end up with a guy on this trip. That was more Nikki's style, and besides, even though they were sharing a meal, these guys were still strangers.
The waiter approached their table once more, arms laden with steaming dishes. "Pardon me, your meals are ready."
He began setting down the plates, announcing each dish as he placed them on the table. "Miso-glazed black cod for the lady, wagyu beef teppanyaki for the gentleman. And here are your shared dishes: assorted sushi rolls, tempura, and a large bowl of ramen."
The group's eyes widened at the sight and aroma of the food. "This looks amazing," Ayo breathed, picking up her chopsticks.
They began to dig in and the conversation turned to their plans for the next couple of weeks.
Nicholas swallowed a bite of sushi before speaking. "So, what's on your itinerary while you're here?"
Symone counted off on her fingers. "Well, we're doing Tokyo for a few days, then Kyoto, and finishing up in Osaka."
"No way," Nicholas replied, his eyebrows raised. "That's pretty much exactly what we're doing too."
Gigi's eyes lit up. "We should totally link up again! Since we're headed to the same places and all."
Wilhelm nodded enthusiastically, pausing from his tempura. "That's not a bad idea at all. What do you guys think?"
"I'm down," AK chimed in. "It'd be cool to explore with some new friends."
Jules smiled, his eyes lingering on Ayo. "Sounds good to me. I'd like to get to know you all a bit better." As he spoke, his tongue darted out to lick his top lip seductively.
Ayo felt her cheeks warm, and she quickly took a sip of her drink to hide her reaction. "Yeah, that could be fun," she managed to say, trying to keep her voice steady.
Suddenly, a buzz in Ayo's lap made her jump slightly. She glanced down at her phone to see a text in their group chat from Symone: "BIIIIIITTTTTTTCCCCCCCCHHHHHH!"
Another message quickly followed from Nikki: "Jules wants to eat you up like a creme brulee. Give that nigga a bite, sis! 😉"
Ayo shook her head, choosing not to reply to the thread. Her mind was racing. She knew she shouldn't do anything with Jules, but the way he occasionally caressed her skin, his intense stares, and those full lips he kept licking were seriously testing her resolve. She reminded herself that the least of her worries should be surrounding men; she needed to focus on her move to London and securing her bag.
As they continued eating, the conversation flowed easily, punctuated by laughter and casual flirtation. Jules and Ayo found themselves engrossed in their own private conversation.
"So, London, huh?" Jules murmured, his breath warm against her ear. "That's quite a change from New York."
Ayo nodded, trying to ignore the shiver that ran down her spine. "Yeah, it's a big move. But it's an amazing opportunity for my career."
"I'm sure you'll take London by storm," he said, his fingers tracing light patterns on her shoulder. "They won't know what hit them."
Ayo laughed softly, feeling a blush creep up her cheeks. "We'll see about that. What about you? What do you do?"
Jules hesitated for a moment before answering. "I'm in sports."
"Oh?" Ayo raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What kind?"
A small smile played on his lips. "Football."
Ayo's eyes widened slightly. She might not follow European football closely, but even she knew that was a big deal. "Wow, that's impressive."
There was still a bit of mystery beyond his answer, but Ayo still found herself increasingly drawn to Jules. His charm was undeniable, and the way he looked at her made her feel like the only person in the room, but a small voice in the back of her mind kept reminding her of her goals, her impending move, and the complications that could arise from a vacation fling. However, she couldn't help but wonder what might happen if she allowed herself to give in to the temptation sitting right next to her. Jesus knows that it's been too long since she was physical with a man, and her rose toy needed a break.
Fuck me.
This was going to be a long ass two weeks.
After dinner, Jules settled the bill and the group hailed a taxi to head to a nearby club. This wasn't just any taxi—it was one of those karaoke taxis, complete with neon lights and a vibrant interior. The seats were plush, covered in shiny, colorful fabric that reflected the pulsating lights. Microphones hung from the ceiling, ready for an impromptu performance, and small screens displayed lyrics. Jules and Ayo squeezed into the very back seat, their bodies pressed close in the tight space.
Gigi and Symone began belting out Muni Long's "Made for Me," their off-key voices filling the cab.
"Twin… where have you been? Nobody loves me like you do…"
Nikki groaned, "I didn't come to Tokyo for this sad shit. Driver, can you play something else?"
The driver responded in broken English, "You like Megan Thee Stallion?"
A chorus of enthusiastic "Hell yes!" and "Yeah!" erupted from the girls. The driver grinned and switched the music, blasting Megan Thee Stallion's latest hits. Symone and Gigi immediately started twerking, teasing the guys to turn up. The guys laughed, hyping them up and taking their phones out to record the antics. Jules shook his head in mock disappointment, but his eyes were full of amusement.
When they finally made it to the club, AK tipped the driver generously before Jules covered their entrance fee. Inside, pulsing lights and thumping bass greeted them. They secured a small booth, and a server quickly approached to take their drink orders. Jules ordered a round for the table.
Jules found himself having a great time, but his attention kept drifting to Ayo. He loved the way her name felt on his tongue, and he couldn't help but admire how stunning she looked. The flirting at dinner had left him wanting more, her scent and their brief touches lingering in his mind.
Taking a big swig of his drink, Jules leaned closer to Ayo. "Are you having fun?" he asked.
She nodded with a smile. "Yeah, I am."
"You seem like the quieter one in your group. Am I right?"Ayo nodded again, and Jules chuckled. "Same here with my friends. Don't worry, I'll do the talking for both of us."
Ayo giggled at that, and Jules felt a warmth spread through his chest at the sound. He winked at her, enjoying their growing connection and the easy rapport between them.
The music shifted from the heavy bass of a hip-hop song to the smooth, infectious rhythm of Afrobeats. Jules inclined his head towards the semi-filled dance floor. "Do you want to dance with me?"
"Huh?" Ayo said, surprised.
"Dance? With me?" Jules repeated.
Ayo hesitated. "No."
"Please?" he pleaded, giving her a puppy dog look. "Here, take a shot to take the edge off," he said, pouring her a shot.
Ayo accepted the shot tentatively, then shrugged and downed it quickly. She grimaced as the alcohol burned its way down, and Jules chuckled lightly. "C'mon, ma belle," he coaxed, leading her to the dance floor.
"C'est parti, Jules! (Here we go, Jules!)" Nicholas commented, patting Jules on the back as he led Ayo to the middle of the dance floor. Jules gestured with his finger for her to turn around. Ayo did as instructed, feeling Jules's front flush against her back, his hips moving into a slow wine, tempting her to do the same with her hips.
"Fuck," he murmured in her ear, his whiskey-scented breath teasing her and making her arousal grow. "You're so sexy, Ayo."
Ayo smiled as his hands on her waist tightened and his hips ground harder against her, allowing her to feel his hardened dick at the crack of her ass. Jules inwardly hissed at the friction, taking a deep inhale of her scent as they moved to the beat.
He was hard beyond measure, his length straining against the confines and his pant's zipper and all he yearned for was to be buried to the hilt inside of her. After tonight, Jules knew it would be hard not to want her. He affirmed to himself that a little vacation fling was exactly what he needed before the season started.

Strictly Unprofessional - part 5 (alexia putellas x reader)
Summary: You’ve just landed your dream job as a photographer at FC Barcelona Femení. The only problem? You hooked up with the captain five years ago and haven’t seen her since.
Part 5/9
Read other parts here.
———
As Christmas approaches, you and Alexia continue to get closer. You’re careful about getting too close and try to keep a professional boundary in place, especially conscious about how others might perceive your closeness since Mapi accused you of flirting with each other, but you can’t help the way that you’re drawn to Alexia’s side.
You often wonder if your fondness is reciprocated.
You sit next to Alexia more often than not while travelling to away games and when you ask Alexia if she wouldn’t rather sit with her teammates, she answers with a shrug.
“I spend all day with those idiots,” Alexia says, her words punctuated with a shriek at the back of the bus, followed by raucous laughter that just highlights Alexia’s description of her teammates. “Anyway, I like spending time with you.”
“I like spending time with you too,” you reply, the words rolling off your tongue too easily.
You didn’t really think anything of your growing closeness with Alexia until Mapi’s question about flirting. In fact, you thought you’d done a pretty good job of moving past whatever happened five years ago by building a new relationship with Alexia that’s firmly in the friendzone.
But now that Mapi has planted the idea in your head, you can’t stop thinking about it. There’s nothing overtly flirtatious in the conversations you have with Alexia, but you overthink every interaction, every smile, every touch. Is Alexia just being friendly and Mapi’s winding you up, or is there actually still something there?
———
In December, Barcelona launches a new line of winter leisurewear - hoodies, sweatpants, Christmas jumpers, and more - and it’s your job to get some photos for the club shop and social media to advertise the range.
What that means is a Tuesday afternoon in one of the media rooms with Mapi, Jana and of course Alexia.
The room has been set up for the shoot with a makeshift studio in one half of the room, as well as tables with piles of clothes for the three players to model. A privacy screen has been set up in one corner for them to change behind but they don’t really use it, used to changing in front of each other every day anyway. You make an effort not to stare as Alexia strips unashamedly out of her clothes and into the first outfit, but so what if your eyes get caught on Alexia’s tattoos? You don’t remember exactly which ones were there five years ago but you’re certain there’s a couple of new additions to the tanned canvas of her back.
“Hey,” Mapi says, nudging you back to attention with her elbow. “Which clothes do you want me in first?”
“Start with the navy. Then we’ll move onto the grey.”
The shoot goes smoothly. The three players are easy to work with, just the right balance between professionalism and playful banter that means the shoot is easy but also entertaining.
You get most of the pictures you need in the studio, before each of the players dresses in a different set of clothes and you head outside with a couple of footballs to an empty training pitch to take a few more shots out there.
Once that part of the shoot is complete, everyone is keen to get back inside quickly to get out of the cold. Alexia and Jana walk ahead, Alexia with her arm wrapped around Jana’s shoulder, and it’s not jealousy that you feel but more of a realisation that Alexia is probably just touchy-feely with all her friends. You’d be stupid to think you were special.
“So, you and Alexia, huh?” Mapi asks, falling into step beside you as she helps carry your equipment back inside.
“What? She told you?”
“Told me what?”
Your stomach drops as you realise that in your distracted state, you’ve possibly just let slip something that you shouldn’t have done.
“Shit.”
“Told me what?” Mapi asks again, her eyes widening in delight as she realises that she’s probably just uncovered more gossip that she intended to. “Have you two…? Oh, this is juicy!”
“Wait, what were you asking me about Alexia?” you ask confusedly, your cheeks burning with embarrassment.
“I was gonna ask about the fact you’ve been staring at her with heart eyes all morning, but clearly I’ve missed something bigger than that.”
“It’s nothing,” you say, wishing the ground would open up and swallow you whole to save you the ordeal of having this conversation.
“Are you dating?” Mapi presses you. “Or just sleeping together?”
“Neither,” you answer honestly. “Look, I agreed with Alexia that we wouldn’t say anything to anybody else.”
“Okay, sorry,” Mapi apologises, though you can tell from her body language that she’s desperate to know the gossip. “I won’t push.”
The problem is that you’re also desperate to talk about it with somebody and you’ve basically already accidentally confessed to Mapi, which is why you last about five seconds of silence before spilling the rest.
“I met her five years ago in Ibiza,” you admit. “I had no idea who she was and we slept together once. She didn’t even remember me when I first started working here. But we’ve talked about it now and it’s cool.”
You wait for Mapi’s laughter, or her judgement, or some other overstated reaction to your current misfortune, but her actual response is much more measured than you expect.
“Okay, but my original point about the heart eyes stands,” she says. “You wouldn’t be looking at her like that if it was cool.”
“I’m not the first poor idiot to fall for Alexia and I won’t be the last.”
“You’re falling for her?” Mapi asks, her eyebrows shooting up.
“I don’t know,” you shrug defeatedly. “Maybe not. Maybe I just think I am.”
“You know what this means?”
“I’m a pathetic idiot?”
Mapi doesn’t let you embrace your self pity, instead she nudges you with her elbow and grins like this is something to celebrate.
“No, it means you deserve some congratulations,” she tells you. “You know, some people say you’re not an official part of this football club until you’re caught up in some lesbian drama. You managed it before your first day. That might be a new record.”
“That means a lot coming from the queen of complicated relationships with coworkers,” you joke back.
“It’s why you always should listen to me,” Mapi says, with a matter-of-fact shrug. “I’m an expert. And if you need me to put in a good word with Alexia, or talk some sense into her, just let me know.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
———
The revelation that you might be catching feelings for Alexia is a weird one. It’s not particularly news, but until the conversation with Mapi you hadn’t wanted to admit that your affection for Alexia was anything more than coworkers-turned-friends.
Talking to Mapi has both helped and made things more confusing. It’s definitely a relief to have talked about it and you didn’t realise how much bottling up a five year old secret had been bothering you. But now it’s out in the open, even if it’s just between you and Mapi, makes it harder to ignore. You thought you were happy just coasting along as Alexia’s friend, but now you feel like you need to make a decision - either draw a line under what happened and move forward without any flirtiness, or acknowledge your feelings and try to make a move.
If this was somebody you knew from anywhere else, you’d shoot your shot and accept the possible rejection.
But Alexia isn’t just some random girl you can afford to mess things up with. And there’s more at stake than just your love life. It’s not like you can avoid her if she turns you down.
You’ve not explicitly talked about your personal lives since that first conversation where Alexia let you know that she remembered where you met before. For all you know, she might be dating somebody else. You’ve heard mentions of an ex who used to play for the team, but it sounds like that’s definitely in the past and while you haven’t heard that she’s seeing somebody else, you’re sure that somebody with Alexia’s high profile has no shortage of dating options.
In short, you have no idea what to do. The safest option seems to be to stay quiet and hope that whatever feelings you may or may not have for Alexia eventually fizzle out.
But what if she feels the same? Would it not be worth taking the risk?
———
You’re alone in the media office, everyone else having gone for lunch, when you hear a knock on the door and glance up to see Alexia leaning against the doorframe.
“Hey,” she grins at you.
“Can I help you?” you ask, relaxing back in your chair.
“I’m just here to say hi,” Alexia answers with a shrug. “You get to watch me at work every day. I thought it was only fair that I do the same.”
“My work is a lot less watchable than yours,” you point out.
Alexia enters the office and grabs one of the empty chairs, wheeling it towards your desk before she sits down in it.
“What are you doing?” she asks, peering at the screen of your computer.
“I’m editing those pictures we took for the club shop,” you explain. You glance across at Alexia with a mischievous grin and ask, “Do you think anybody would notice if I photoshopped your head onto Mapi’s body?”
“I’ve always wondered what I’d look like with a tattoo sleeve,” Alexia jokes back.
“I like the tattoos you’ve got,” you shrug. You point at the one on the inside of her left bicep, just visible beneath the sleeve of her t-shirt. “I think this one is my favourite.”
“Would you ever get a tattoo?” Alexia asks.
“How do you know I don’t already have one?” you quip back.
“I don’t remember you having any.”
Alexia raises her eyebrows and you blush, reminded of the fact that she has indeed seen all of you, even if her knowledge of your body is five years out of date.
You spin the office chair around and lift the hem of your top to expose the side of your ribcage to show off the tattoo you got a few months ago. It’s an outline of an old fashioned camera, mostly minimalist in design, with a few flowers surrounding it.
“It’s a cliche, I know, but I got it when I got the job here. It was my first full time photography job and I wanted to celebrate the occasion.”
“It’s beautiful,” Alexia tells you, leaning closer to examine the tattoo.
It’s probably a HR violation to expose this much skin during work hours but you and Alexia are the only ones in the media office so you don’t really care.
Until there’s a noise behind you as one of your colleagues enters the room, and you let the hem of your top drop to cover up your tattoo again. You turn back to your computer, back to the pictures you were editing before Alexia showed up, at least wanting to make it look like you’re working.
“Anyway, I did have something to ask you,” Alexia continues. “What are you doing on Saturday night?”
You rack your brains. The girls don’t have a match this weekend and they’ve also been given a couple of days off from training, which means you’ve got a free weekend too.
“Saturday? Nothing yet, why?”
“What’s your dad doing on Saturday night?” Alexia asks a follow up question.
“My dad?” you ask, shooting Alexia a confused look.
“I’ve been given a box at Camp Nou for the men’s Clasico on Saturday,” Alexia explains. “A few of the girls are coming and of course you’re invited too, but you mentioned your dad was a big Barca fan. I thought maybe you’d like to bring him along too?”
You’re taken aback by Alexia’s generosity. That she wants to invite you is nice, but that she also remembers you telling her about your dad bringing you to matches at Camp Nou when you were a child and extends the invitation to him too is a gesture of kindness that only reinforces your affection for Alexia.
“I think he’d love that. Thank you. I’ll text him and let you know.”
You make a few final clicks with your mouse, adding the finishing touches to your rushed attempt at photoshop.
“Look,” you say, turning the computer screen to show Alexia your edit of her head onto Mapi’s body.
The photoshop job is messy, nowhere near the level of technical skill you can show with a bit more time, but with your only aim to pull a laugh from Alexia, you’re not fussed about cleaning up the sloppy edges or making it look professional.
And laugh is exactly what Alexia does. It takes her a few seconds to realise that you’ve followed through on your joke from earlier, but when she does, a burst of warm laughter erupts from her chest.
“No,” she says, shaking her head. “I love Mapi but that’s all wrong. It’s not even the tattoos, just the way she stands is different to me. It just looks weird.”
“Damn, I was convinced I’d just made you a new profile picture for social media,” you tease her.
“Can you send it to me?” Alexia asks with a grin. “I want to show Mapi. She’ll hate it.”
