Chapter 3: Lousy Truth

Neymar's POV

"You are supposed to be in Los Cabos two days before, guests will arrive the day before the wedding" Alexis explained while we were eating.

"Can I bring someone?" I asked, not sure why.

"Of course you can!" Alexis said with a smile. (Good move, bro. Thank you.) [That was Javi's thought]. "You have to tell me soon so I can tell Laia, so she can tell the wedding planner so she can change the list" He said giving me a big smile.

"Okay... Do you have the cake and all that ready?" I asked him.

"Yes, I don't know what was more expensive, the cake or flying the cake all the way to México" He said and we both laughed.

"What about the other two cakes?"

"I don't know" He said and we both laughed. "I've helped" He was going to continue but I interrupted him with a fake cough. "I'm serious! I helped her but she said that she wanted everything to be perfect so she preferred Javiera to help... To help her" He said with his eyes open widely. "I'm sorry"

"It doesn't matter, she is your sister" I said.

"I know but, still... Your break up wasn't the best" He said and I released a dry laugh.

"I know, trust me, I know" This was the first time we were talking about the break up and it was awkward. After a minute of silence he threw the question.

"Do you miss her?"

"Sorry?" I said, he definitely caught me off guard.

"I said if you missed Javiera"

"Why are you asking me this now?"

"Because I know you, I know that you have all your feelings wandering and that isn't good! You have to take them off of you"

"I feel like no one will understand..." I said breaking the eye contact.

"Maybe, but I can listen to you, you can tell me all the things that you are feeling. I won't judge you"

"You are her brother"

"Yes, but I'm your best friend" He said giving me a kind smile. "Take it away, I'll listen to everything you need to say" I checked that Davi was still sleeping. I closed my eyes and started talking.

"I feel like..." I swallowed the lump forming in my throat and continued. "I feel like we didn't talk about it, not enough... Sometimes I think what would I tell her if she was in front of me; the first thing that comes to mind is ask her, why? Why did this happen? When did it go wrong? What did I do?, but then I come to the realization that I don't want to know all of those things, I just wanna tell her that I love her, that I want her back... But then I think is better this way"

"Why?"

"Because I became too dependant of her. I was in a cloud, she was all I needed, my happiness depended on her"

"But that's what love feels like"

"I know but... I don't know" I sighed. "I don't know what I'll do when I have her in front of me"

"Talk with her. You can still fix things"

"I don't know if I want to fix things, Alexis"

"I know I'm not supposed to say this, but you two are perfect together. You compliment each other in a way that I had never seen before"

"I don't know... But I think I'm sure I don't want to fix things"

"But you wanted to fix things when you ran after her when she left to New York"

"But, guess what... I didn't catch her, she left and she didn't tell me... She forgot about me, now is my time to do the same"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes... And I think there's something I haven't told you" I said scratching the back of my neck.

"What is it?"

"I'm seeing someone"

Javi's POV

"Can you believe that your brother is in Barcelona and I'm here, worrying about everything" Laia said throwing her head on the pillow.

"I thought you didn't want him to help you because you wanted everything to be perfect" I laughed, eating a strawberry.

"Yes, but still"

"What is he doing in Barcelona?" I asked furrowing my eyebrows.

"Uhm... He is, you know..." Laia got up from the bed and started walking around the room.

"He is...?"

"You know, he is..."

"Laia, I know he is with Neymar, you don't need to be all nervous about it" I said dryly.

"I know, I'm sorry" She said sitting right next to me. "I know you don't like talking about him"

"It doesn't matter, Laia. I'll have to see his face in less than two weeks so I don't think there's any point in avoiding him"

"Do you still love him?"

"Why are you asking me this?" I said letting out a laugh.

"Because I know you. Now, answer me; do you still love him?"

"I don't know"

"Javiera..."

"Okay, I do, happy?"

"No need to be angry" She sang.

"Sorry. Is just..." I breathed. "I don't think I can forget about him, he is so special, I don't know if I'll ever find someone like him" I said, feeling my eyes well up.

"Baby" Laia said caressing my hair but I shook my head.

"Please, don't" I said wiping my eyes. "I'm trying to get over him. I know that he won't come back, I know that he doesn't love me anymore, I know that I have to move on... Is just" I said, feeling more tears on their way. "Is just that I can't"

And I lost it. I started crying my heart out, again. Laia held me while whispering sweet nothings in my ear, I've been in this situation countless times, but it doesn't get any easier.

But I know that I have to get him out of my mind, and I will.
