AlanaAs soon as I hung up the phone, a feeling of emptiness washed over me. I lied to Raúl, I didn't tell him the real reason, and it's eating me up. When I found him again I had no idea he could leave me like this, feel involved, make me feel so good. At first I didn't really feel anything different for him, he was just Dani's friend, who always liked me, and I didn't realize it, until he was conquering space, and even knowing and feeling that, I still act like that stupid girl who I thought I liked the half brother. I spent the night lying in bed, thinking and feeling bad for not having spent the night with him. I know, I'm confused, too dreamy, and I ended up idealizing something that didn't exist! Making love to Raúl was good, he caused me so many things that I never felt... Why didn't I go to sleep with him? Now, I'm feeling like I should be with him.I'm going to meet my friends, and I already know they'll ask why I didn't say what I wanted, and now I'm sorry. I feel bad, and I
AlanaI'm delivered. My body ignites with every touch, kiss, sensation caused by him. Raúl stops his caresses, takes me by the waist, looks at me intensely and he doesn't have to say anything. I understand his message and lie under the bed. He gets up and looks for something on the table next to the bed, and as soon as he finds the silver wrapper, he closes the drawer, looks at me and smiles. The most beautiful smile I've ever seen. I know, it may seem like I'm behaving like a fool in love, in fact I'm behaving like one! He lies under me, caresses my cheek and takes my mouth hotly, and just when I think we're moving forward, he stops, looks at me, and says something that only makes me more in love with him.— I want you to be honest with me, and when you feel pain, or some discomfort you have to tell me, the pleasure has to be ours, not just mine. How are you? I nod in agreement, and answer.I don't expect you to take my lips, I do it myself with pleasure. Raúl squeezes my thigh, and
Raúl The day started in an incredible way. I returned home after a wonderful achievement, I was finally called up to the national team, my girlfriend made a statement to me, and we had a wonderful time. Yeah... Life is smiling at me, my heart is light, and I hope things keep flowing that way. After intense moments, it was time to talk to Alana's family, specifically her mother. I understand the concern, but at the same time I think it's exaggerated, they've known me for so long, they know my character and they act like they don't. As soon as I pull up in front of the house, I feel the tension that envelops Alana. I touch her face lightly, she looks at me tenderly. We don't say anything, our looks answer for everything we could say at that moment. As soon as we enter, she squeezes my hand tightly and leads me to the living room where some familiar voices were coming from, we arrive in front of everyone and the sound stops, I feel Alana's hand sweating next to mine. Everyone looks, and
AlanaDefinitely, Raúl doesn't know who he's dealing with. Does he want to play, tease me, drive me crazy? So let's start playing, but I'm not the one who's going to lose this game. He didn't want to leave the house, and I insisted we go to the club, and now, in his car, he doesn't look too pleased with our late night show, especially when he saw me in the dress I'm wearing. In his words “Don't you think this dress is quite... Provocative?” I did not agree, although in my heart I know that this is the intention, to provoke him. He didn't ask me to take off the dress, and even if he did I wouldn't for two reasons:– I really want to tease him;– I don't want him to determine what I should or shouldn't wear;I've always believed that we shouldn't let one person run our lives, determine our choices, what to wear, or what we like to do. Analyzing my mother and her marriage to my father, I remember that this was one of the reasons that separated them, he wanted to determine her choices, an
Alana— Why are you wasting your time with that girl?Is that the sentence she says about me? Who does she think she is? Since when is she the ideal woman for Raúl, as she seems more interested in the life he can provide than actually living with him? Oh, spare me your...— He's not wasting time, honey! Maybe he's wasting his precious time talking to you, don't you think? I say, and approach Raúl, who looks at me in surprise.— I... — Before she says a word, I take the lead.— Look... Amalia! I think you better look for your class elsewhere!— You act like Raúl is your property, did you buy him? She has the nerve to say it in a mocking tone.— I didn't buy him, he's my boyfriend!— And he can't have my friendship? — she's not mocking... She's just being mocking!— It's not his friendship you want! — and before he answers, Raúl takes the lead.— Amália, I think I was clear with you, but you keep insisting. And now you want to pick a fight with my girlfriend, make us uncomfortable, is t
RaúlAlana is always a box of surprises, she spent the whole night teasing me, and when I decide to play her game, she wants to redeem herself, and make love to me. She has the gift of driving me crazy, and then she comes all sly, it's hard… This girl will still be my downfall! I hold her by the waist, turn her on her side. After putting on the condom, I get between her legs and fit inside her. I was crazy about it, it hasn't been that long since we had sex and I feel a crazy need, before it was easier to control. With each thrust she presses her legs around me, and her moan is a little desperate, I squeeze her breasts and kiss her mouth, I feel the orgasm approaching, and I want it to last. She feels the same way too.— Raúl, I'm going to enjoy it ! But I don't want it now, I want more! I obey her, get out of her, get on my knees on the bed, she's panting, and her look makes me crazier. — What are we going to do now?I look at my girlfriend, and there is a desire at that moment to fe
Alana— Raúl , did something happen?— It's just that Fernando called, and said so much about the selection, about sponsors, the Tournament, and that made me a little worried...— With what?— I don't know if I'll actually be able to get summoned, and it worries me somehow...— Fernando has been pressuring you, is that it? Because if that's it, do your job and things will happen...— I'm not like Dani. He doesn't bow his head to anyone in football, and he ignores the press, and he's never had to put himself out there to get noticed, and...— Raúl, you have been called up to be tested, and the final list will come out in May, until then he will make two more calls, and you will have until the end of the season to show your potential.— I know, but Fernando told me that it would be nice to appear on some sports programs, and give an interview telling me about my story... It's something he's been insisting on since the event with Pedro, but I don't want to be involved with the sports med
RaúlAlana is so worried about her friend that she doesn't feel safe telling him about their possible romance. Since Rafael confided something I already suspected, I started to admire him even more, because it must not be easy to live in a world that doesn't accept you, and in the world of football it's like that. Rafael, or any player who is brave enough to admit his sexual orientation, will suffer the consequences of his decision. Unfortunately, that's how it is, it's outdated, it's not just in football, or in any other sport, the world is still a place full of prejudices. I bring my hand to her face, I want to cherish her, make her feel confident and expose her problems and feelings.— What happened? The problem is with Edu?— Yeah... But, I can't tell you... Because I would be breaking his trust, even though Edu is hiding something from me...— Is he dating a football player?— I think so, but I'm not really sure, and...— Is it Raphael? I ask her, but I already know her answer.—
Alana6 years laterSitting on the grass, I observe the green immensity around me. Trees, grass, everything is so green. I take a deep breath, I feel a purity in the air and a sense of peace invades my mind, and a childish laugh awakens me from my moment. I look to the side and she looks at me, her face smiling. She approaches me, smiles a lot, holds the ball as if it's something very precious, kicks it lightly in my direction, I reach for it with my hand, and the smile gives way to a closed expression.— Mother, are you better? — he asks in a worried tone.— I am, don't worry, I'm just tired!— So, you have to get out of that chair and master the ball, Dad already explained how to do it...— Julia, the player here at home is your father, understand once and for all!— But you said you'd play with me!— Yes, I said, but I thought you were going to play something else, there are other games and things to do, besides football, daughter!— But I like football, I don't want to play anythi
AlanaA few days passed, but that word echoed in my mind nonstop, I know it was just a dream, but what if it's true? If I really am pregnant, or stay in the next few days? Am I ready to be a mother? What would Raúl's reaction be? There are so many questions in my mind that I couldn't sleep well, I look at the empty space next to me, the bed seems even bigger than it is, Raúl must be at the club by now, while I don't feel like getting up .Sitting at the table, in front of the food, I stare into space. The dream won't get out of my head, and I think I'm going to go crazy if I keep thinking about it. The doorbell rings, snapping me out of my trance. I walk towards the door, and luckily for me, I find Babi's smile. She comes in, talks nonstop, but it's like I can't hear her, I throw myself on the couch, while my friend sits in the armchair next to me.— Alana, can you hear me?— What?— I'm talking to you, and it feels like I'm alone here... What happened?— Sorry , I haven't been sleepi
AlanaSitting by the sea, I watch the waves break up when they reach the sands of the beach. I take a deep breath, face the blue immensity, and a sense of peace invades my mind, my body. A child's smile awakens me from my little trance. I look to the side and look at the smiling face of a small girl who runs towards me, she approaches me, smiles, puts her hands together, offers me a small yellow flower, I reach out to take it, and before it touches, she walks away and runs away without saying anything. It's strange, I feel the need to follow her, I don't know why, but a different feeling takes over me, I can't identify what it is, just that I need to go to the little girl, be close to her. I get up and follow after her, who runs more and more and smiles. Her smile, her black eyes, and her shoulder-length hair remind me of me as a child. She smiles, and when I get closer, she hugs me so tightly, I reciprocate and I feel my heart beat so hard, she loosens up a little and looks at me, op
AlanaFlirt a football player is not easy at all. They are always traveling, training, interviewing, and playing games. And that always happens at some important moments, like my birthday, or someone in the family. Not to mention, when he's famous... Sometimes I miss when Raúl was just another one at Real Madrid, today he's a world football star, even more famous than Dani, he became the team's captain and of the national team, it's beautiful... This attracts a lot of women, from fans to those who want to do well at your expense. I'm jealous, I don't deny it. The amount of women who want to surround my boyfriend is absurd, and I've been controlling myself, I'm not as childish as I used to be. Yeah... I've matured a bit!I decided to gather my friends here at home to make small talk. I still live with my mother and stepfather, by Raúl we were living together, or married, but I tried to put off that idea for a while, I love him, but with a step like that comes big responsibilities, and
RaúlSince the day we won the title, these last few days have been crazy. I won the title of best defender in the competition alongside Valdéz , many contracts with companies emerged, interviews on various programs, celebrations, there is a lot happening at the same time in my professional life. My personal life, or rather my love life, seems stagnant, I couldn't talk to Alana after winning the title. I need to find her and I think I know the ideal time for that, because even if she's upset, she'll go to the commemoration promoted by the Spanish Football Federation.I arrive at the party practically on time, and I am informed by one of the organizers of the event that the tributes to the Selection would begin in a few minutes. I look around the room and spot her. She is beautiful, with a black dress that highlights her beautiful curves very well and a discreet neckline that leaves the bosom of her breasts a little exposed, and that makes me a little on. Dani approaches my table, waves
Alana— Raúl! — I say, look in my direction, approach, and extend my hand in greeting. — Congratulations on everything you've accomplished in this Tournament. You were amazing!He just smiles shyly, approaches me and holds my hand. This simple gesture makes my body alert, my desire is to cling to your body, kiss your mouth desperately. Raúl touches my hand lightly, his gaze is intense, I feel naked in front of him. He closes the distance between us, wraps his arms around my waist and hugs me tightly, I return the gesture. It seems like the world stopped for both of us at that moment, I can't hear anything, let alone see anything, it's a unique moment. Unlike my dream, he's not blaming me, we're incredibly connected, and before we say anything, our moment is interrupted by his family. He looks at me as if he wants to ask for something, I move away a little, giving way to his mother and brothers. He is hugged by everyone, but he keeps looking at me, I smile shyly and he smiles back. In
RaúlI walk away from my family, hoping to catch up with them, but I am stopped by some people, probably relatives of the players. And when I finally manage to pass people, and dodge that movement, Alana is no longer there. Damn it! The feeling of loss takes over me, something I had avoided in recent weeks, as I needed to be focused and concentrated on the Cup. I can't get down now, I need to focus on something else right now, we're in the final... And I want to be world champion!The big day has arrived. I couldn't sleep, I spent the whole night thinking about the game and my story so far. The day before I received several calls. Two of them caught my attention, one was from Fernando telling me about the amount of proposals I was getting from foreign clubs, from companies wanting my participation as a poster boy, and that made me happy, I finally conquered the fame I wanted. And the other call was from Alana. I answered, she said absolutely nothing and hung up. I called back but was
RaúlI will the position holder?This is some joke, it can't be, it's surreal.I always dreamed of being in the national team, especially in the most important competition in world football, but I never imagined that I would be a starter like that. It's confusing, I feel a mixture of sadness and joy. It must not be easy for Álvarez , an experienced defender, one of the best today, to be cut by such a stupid injury. However, I'm happy for the trust that Dell Castillo is placing in me, it's proof that I've been doing a good job, and that's wonderful!— Sir, I would like to thank you for the trust. And Alvarez already knows? And the team, do they already know?— He already knows, and as for the team, I'll let them know now, in the cafe. You don't need to thank me, you deserve this place, because you've been playing your role in defense very well![...]It's my debut in the competition. I'm nervous, and at the same time confident, if Del Castillo gave me this opportunity, I'm not going to
AlanaI knew she wasn't a good person, but not of that quality. It's too audacious to hold my arm, think you can say or do anything to me. I try to free myself and turn to face her. Before I open my mouth to speak, or raise my hand to do anything, someone approaches me and says something.— Leave my friend alone, you cow! Who do you think you are to pull her like that?— And who are you? Her security? he asks ironically.— No, I'm her friend. And I think you better get out of here, because if Alana is controlling herself not to put her hand in your face, I'll do it for her... — Edu speaks in a serious tone of voice, which I don't remember seeing him using since we met.— Don't worry, we're leaving! she says, and finally leaves with her friend.I see them walk away. I look at my friends who stare at me with an affectionate look. And Babi questions Edu ironically.— Since when are you so manly? I even believed...— Oh, how dull, Dona Barbara! I had to defend our friend from this crazy
