Everything is in its proper place and because of that I am even more scared. My dream job is getting better and I am more and more satisfied and happy. My friendships are the best in the world, Hunter is the best boyfriend of all and my family in Spain are doing very well.I like to feel this emotional stability; I feel a lot more confident now than when I got back to Barcelona.I stare fascinated at Hunter doing his thing with the Adidas ball that is the official of the World Cup. His skill and comfort with the ball is impressive. He looks like a boy playing with his favorite toy. I grab my cellphone and start filming his exploits as he puts the ball on his back and rotates along with movement of the ball.“You're incredibly good,” I declare.“Swear? Could I win the title of Best in the World?” He makes the most adorable puppy dog face.“Stop crying, as if you're not the current world champion.” I drop my cellphone on the side of the chair that I’m lying down on.“But when I won you

Hunter“We need a shower.” I wink, grab her waist and bite her earlobe. She is shocked but yearning for my touch, yielding into my arms.I capture her mouth realizing her instincts are talking louder than mine. With a quick gesture, I turn on the shower and feel the temperature of the water. It's perfectly warm. I do all this without stopping my kissing her and without removing the clothes that cover her beautiful body.I stare into those beautiful brown eyes that are bright, wild and sweet at the same time, giving the perfect view a man can have of a woman.“So beautiful,” I say. I tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear and she shyly looks down.I pick her up in my lap, trapping her legs against me and push her against the glass door. Selena doesn't even seem to feel the cold tiles pressing into her back yet continues to look at me as though able to see my insides, if that were ever possible.It all feels like a dream, my dream of having my Selena with me that has come true. She c

Of course, I get sick after getting home from riding that two-wheeled thing I affectionately dub the alien I've always been terrified of. Despite challenging my fear, I did very well. I loved clinging to Hunter for the entire ride and feeling the wind against me, that was invigorating.Valentina tells Hunter that I have been sick and he makes me promise that today we would see Dr. Sheena together with the neurologist and Dr. Sheena. He wants us to discuss the issue of pneumonia I had.“Well Selena, your X-ray is in perfect condition,” Dr. Sheena notes. She holds the sheets up to the light. “The headaches will still continue, but your progress is excellent. It's the first time I've seen an amnesia patient reform so quickly.”It makes me feel better just knowing that I understand what she's talking about because until now, we've never really been able to communicate.“Tell me something,” she says, “where were you and what time was your last memory?”“I had already arrived in Barcelona a

He steps into the bathroom. “Good morning, my beautiful. I did not want to scare you. Your beautiful smile is here like every morning.”“You didn't scare me,” I speak softly, going back to the sink. “Good morning to you too. You arrived early.”“I missed you.” He kisses the back of my neck, making me shiver. “And I wanted to bring you breakfast in bed, but you spoiled my surprise.”“I'm a terrible person.” I bite my lip, almost laughing.“How were the consultations?” He leans his hip against the sink beside me and folds his arms.“Dr. Sheena praised me for the progress I’ve made in recent months,” I say, relieved for a subject that I can give explanations. “She said she's never seen such quick memory recall.” Hunter just nods his head, waiting for me to say more. “Dr. Sheena took a blood test and said my health is positive.” I shudder when I say that last word, but to my even greater relief, Hunter doesn’t notice.Breakfast is great but I have to lie to Hunter to convince him to get s

I grab my cellphone and dial my dad's number.“Hello?” he formally answers but he knows who it is.“Hi Dad, can we talk?” My leg shakes in anticipation.“Selena it’s going to cost a lot to talk on the phone,” he speaks, but I won’t let him back out.“Father I'm here, and we need to talk.”He snorts. “Where are you?”I explain exactly where I am and he asks me to wait at one of the cafes facing the sea and order only an orange juice. My dad arrives about ten minutes later in a La Coste jacket, jeans, and running shoes.“Hi Dad.” He just keeps looking at me arrogantly without even greeting me. “Sorry to make a fuss.”“How is Hunter?” He positions himself in the chair across from me.“Very well,” I answer. “Next week he disembarks in Madrid to stay focused for the World Cup.”“I'm happy for you.”His vague words earn a rise in me.“Is that all you're gonna tell me?” I bite.“And what do you want me to say?”“I don't know, you're the father, how about asking me how I am instead of asking
Hunted By The Player Confused as ever
HunterIt’s my fifth time calling and nothing. Selena is definitely out of kilter. She keeps dropping the call to voicemail and when she does answer, she leaves our conversation vague. I put away my phone and go back to doing my physical tests as the doctors have been waiting for me for five minutes.The pressure on me is increasing since being the 10th jersey of the team that wins the most times in this world championship could be mine. I look around one of the various training camps and see more and more journalists, and to be honest, I have never seen so many journalists around me before. Each one calls for my attention when training ends but I choose to leave without talking to anyone.Next week the announcement of my club transfer comes out and I feel grateful to be confined to Real Madrid without being able to give interviews until further notice. Therefore, there will be no fuss for a few days.It's almost night. The sun doesn't show on the horizon anymore and I spend several l

A month ago...The house was silent despite the fact that it was two in the afternoon, an unusual thing as when I arrived Selena usually welcomed me with a smile as soon as I entered the front door. Maria was not there since she went to Madrid to sit in a meeting at her daughter's school. Despite not being there, she had already cooked a whole lot of food, labelled all the boxes and left notes on post-its so that I wouldn’t starve for my lack of good cooking skills.As I climbed up the stairs, a music of a mixed electronic dance rhythm grew louder. I realized it's coming from the trophy room Selena had given me. That was the best surprise of my life, all my trophies and jersey wins are now always in front of my eyes to remind me of my victoriesI peeked through the small crack in the door. Selena was looking at the full-length mirror in the room, dancing frantically in calculated and rhythmic steps. Boy, she sure could dance and blow any man’s mind away with her moves. Her gray gym sh
Hunted By The Player Complications
I look at the balcony where Miguel is finishing installing the last details of the Spanish flags displayed on the support grid. On his back is the number ten with Hunter's name in green. It reminds me that I am pregnant with his children. The autograph and signature are at the height of my brother's ribs and my mind wanders to the notes Hunter always left me. I pout for the longing that settles upon my chest.A week ago, I lied to the man I loved for being a complete coward. I am unable to face reality, but lately I prefer to think that I was protecting him and his professional life and for that he has to leave people aside, i.e., me.The announcement of his transfer to the rival club was no surprise to anyone and not a breaking news, the newspapers and sports programs had only officially announced the events. There were no pronouncements from Hunter only Alan who gave a small note saying that "Hunter" himself and his family were very happy. As the announcement was not new, the most c
