We arrived at the restaurant and I saw paparazzi outside the place. Thomas was carrying Mason's baby seat. I got out the car along with the rest of the team and we all walked in. I noticed that the Brazilian team was just arriving too. We said our hello's and went to our tables in the back room. I sat down in between Thomas and Mesut. Moments later other team mates were arriving and we all finally settled in.

"Hello." The guys across from us said

"Hello." We said

"My name is Dani and this is Thiago, Oscar and Hulk." Dani said

I then remembered he was the one in the elevator who called me Belle.

"Oh I remember you." I said to Dani

"You do?" He asked with wide eyes

"Yeah." I said. "At the beach and in the elevator."

He sighed and frowned a bit but quickly replaced it with a fake smile. Okay what's up with him.

Dani's P.O.V

I really thought she remembered me but that wasn't the case. Just when Scolari was about to thank the German team for coming, Xylia excused herself to go change Mason's diaper. She came back minutes later when the food was arriving. We all then dug into our food. She sat down and chatted with Thomas and they laughed. They look so happy together. I was pulled out of my thoughts when Oscar spoke up.

"Congrats on the big win today." Oscar said to Xylia

"Thank you." Xylia replied

"Looking for a win in a couple of days against Spain?" Hulk asked her

"Yeah gonna try my best for the team." Xylia said

"That's good." I said

After we finished eating some of the German team members and some of ours went to play a game of pool since there was one in the other room.

"I go with Mesut to play. You want me to take Mason?" Thomas asked Xylia

"No you go have fun." She told him

He leaned down and kissed her. He excused himself and left with his friend.

Oscar, Hulk, and Thiago stayed along with other German team mates which were at the end of the table.

"So Xylia tell us about yourself." Oscar said to her

"Well my name is Xylia Grec. I turn 22 on July 22. I'm half German and half Spaniard." She said

"What's your son's full name?" I asked

"Mason Eloy Müller." She said

My mouth dropped. Nico's middle name is Eloy. Hulk nudged me and I slightly nodded at him.

"How did you come up with his middle name? I like it." I asked

"I heard it somewhere and I absolutely fell in love with it." She said

"So when did you start playing football?" Hulk asked

"I don't know. I believe it was before my accident." She said

"What accident if you mind me asking." I asked

"Not at all. I actually had an accident which caused the early birth of my son." She said

"Wait what?" We all said shocked

"Yeah I was only 27 weeks pregnant." She said

This is Isabelle Bartra. So many questions were running through my mind. How the hell did she end up with Thomas? Why was she in Germany? Why is she saying that she's German? Why can't she remember us?

"What happened?" Hulk asked

"I was hit in the back of the head." She said

"Oh I'm sorry." I said

She only nodded and looked down the table. She smiled at the German team mates and they smiled back. The next thing that happened was surprising since we all really didn't expect it from him. . . . Our captain.

"WHY THE HELL CAN'T YOU REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE ISABELLE BARTRA?! YOU ARE NOT XYLIA GREC! WHAT DID HE DO TO YOU?! WHY CAN'T YOU REMEMBER US ISABELLE?! YOU'RE HURTING NEYMAR! WE THOUGHT YOU WERE MISSING BUT YOU'RE RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR EYES! SNAP OUT OF IT ISABELLE!" Thiago screamed at her

Mason started crying and soon the whole German team and some of our team mates moved Xylia with Mason. Thomas was fuming. His face was red and if it's possible then steam would have been coming out of his ears. Thomas the turned to Thiago.

(What the fuck is wrong with you? Who the hell do you think you are screaming at her like that? Don't ever come near her ever again!) "Was zum Teufel ist los mit dir? Wer zum Teufel denkst du, sie schreien so?" Thomas pointed a finger at Thiago

Fred took Thiago out of the room and we all apologized to Xylia for Thiago's behavior. One of the German guys was holding a now sleeping Mason and was talking to some of his team mates. Xylia was calming down Thomas who looked like he was going to rip someone's head. Thomas was talking to her in German and she occasionally said some German words to him. She then hugged him and kissed him. She walked back to the table and grabbed her stuff.

"I'm so sorry about him." I said apologetically

"No worries. No one was hurt." She smiled. "I'm sorry but I have to get going now. Bye Dani."

She hugged me and left. I sighed and David walked up to me.

"What the hell happened?" David asked

"Xylia is Isabelle." I whispered to him and his jaw dropped.

"No way." He said

"Yeah and we have proof. She was telling us some things like how she had an early birth due to being hit on the head. I believe she has amnesia. Thats why she probably does not remember us." I explained

"Are you going to tell Neymar?" He asked

"Of course. It was our plan to see what we could get out of her." I said

"Alright man good luck and I hope you're right on this." He hugged me and walked out of the restaurant.

I took a cab to the hospital to see Neymar.

I entered his room and saw him watching TV.

"Hey how are you feeling?" I asked him

"I'm better. So did you find anything about her?" He asked me

"First of all, Thiago freaked out and screamed at Xylia." I said

Neymar's eyes went wide.

"What happened?" He asked

"He must have gotten frustrated and spoke. . . his mind." I said. "Thomas was fuming."

"Didn't expect that from Thiago at all." He frowned

"We all didn't." I said. "Anyway, Xylia is Isabelle. We can't prove it until we have a DNA test but she told me that she had an accident which caused the baby to come early." I said

That caused Neymar's eyes to get watery.

"So the baby I held, her son Mason is Nicolau." He said softly

I just nodded. Tears streamed down his face and it made my eyes watery just by looking at him.

"Why doesn't she remember us?" His voice cracked

"She was hit on the head. I think she has amnesia." I said

"The life she's living is a lie but she just doesn't remember anything from her past." He said looking down at a sleeping Davi. "Now what?"

"We make her remember."

Can anyone recommend me some songs to listen? That would be awesome.

Stay lovely ☺️
