Eyes // Cristiano Ronaldo

Chapter 12

My eyes slowly fluttered open and I was greeted by a warm light that filled the room, which streamed in from the window. I felt a figure next to me and I turned around to be greeted by Cristiano's face which was illuminated by the golden glow of the sun. I smiled as memories from last night came rushing back to me. It was the most fun I have had in a very long time. I couldn't help but reach across and plant a small kiss on his cheek. His face flinched a bit at the sudden touch and soon enough his eyes flickered and he opened them slowly as well. As soon as he saw me, he grinned and kissed me. We just sat there staring at each other and admiring every small feature of each other.
I noticed how his eyes had little specs of caramel or how he had a slight scratch just above his eyebrow.

"I can't believe I never appreciated how beautiful you are," he sighed as he tucked a hair behind my ear. I blushed a little and smiled. I edged closer to him and rested my head against his chest.

However this perfect moment didn't last for long as a thought washed over me in huge currents, causing me to start panicking and my heart to drop.

"Fuck," I cried as I jolted up and stared at Cristiano in panic.

"What's wrong?" he asked studying my worried expression.

"Chris! Chris is still in our room. He's waiting for me shit. He can't find out what I just did," I babbled sentences together as I rushed around the room grabbing my things and putting them on quickly.

"Oh yeah that guy. I forgot about him," Cristiano scoffed.

"What excuse do I give him?"

"Just say that you stayed the night at Shaki's for a girls slumber party or something."

I couldn't help but laugh at his suggestion, "We're not 12 anymore Cristiano".

"Well whatever just use Shakira as an excuse and text her telling her to go along with it if Chris ever texts her to check."

"OK that's a good idea," I sighed as I quickly did my hair.

"Just a quick question. Why the hell don't you just break up with him if you clearly don't like him."

"I don't know. I guess I didn't realise I didn't have feelings for him until last night."

"Wow was I that good?" Cristiano smirked to himself in a cocky way. I shook my head at him, stifling a laugh.

I stared around the room checking if I had everything, before my eyes finally landed on Cristiano who was still in the bed.

"I guess this is it then," I said before I began to crawl to the bed just to be near him one last time.

"When's your flight?" Cristiano asked as he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my forehead.

"In three hours so we have to head to the airport now I guess. When's yours?"

"Sometime in the afternoon."

We sighed simultaneously.

"I don't want this to be a one time thing. I want to always see you and be with you. And I want you to meet Rafael," I said and suddenly I started tearing up, but I didn't want to show him so I wiped them away quickly.

"Come visit me in Madrid if you ever go there for your modelling and then we can recreate last night," he chuckled and I laughed along too.

"And you know come and visit me in LA" I said, "Only after I've broken up with Chris though."

"Of course," He said and I swear I heard his voice crack a bit before he composed himself. It turns out both of us don't want to show our true feelings, which sucks. But I guess that if I did show him my feelings, then I'll get hurt again and I'm trying to avoid that.
