A/n : I just wanted to make sure that my intention with Gavi's character is definitely not soft and feminine, I want to make him seem realistic like how he is in real life; cute, boyish and a little shy... So I hope that's how your character imagination is....💖✨

            The morning sun rays seeping in through the   curtains woke Gavi from his deep slumber. The older was right behind him breathing down his neck; hands still wrapped around his waist.

The younger blushed when he noticed that his shirt had rode up all the way to his waist where Pedri had his hands around. Slowly, without waking him, Gavi tried to break out of his hold. He sneaked his hands under the older's arms and lifted slowly , only to receive a deep groan from Pedro while he tightened his arms around his waist and buried his face deeper into his neck.

"Pedri, please... The alarm's just about to go off in ten minutes." he tried tapping the older's arm lightly.

"Then let me hold you for ten more minutes" Pedri's husky morning voice made Gavi feel things .

"No, I'm getting up" Gavi attempted to lift his arm again and get off the bed.

Suddenly, the older's hands were on his hips turning him around to face him. He hugged him close; not leaving a single atom of space between them.

Pedri smiled lazily at him; eyes still closed.

"Goodmorning " Damn his voice....

"Go- Good m-morning" now why the fuck was Gavi stuttering? He wanted to bang his head against the wall.

"What will you give me if I score today, hmm?" he asked playfully, fingers mapping out circles around the younger's waist.

"An encouraging tap on the shoulder???" Gavi said, his face already breaking out into a smile. He knew exactly what the older wanted but he wasn't going to give in so easily.

Pedro finally opened his eyes with a frown, trying not to smile.

"That's for everyone else to see, I'm talking about" he got closer to the younger and placed his lips tantalizingly close to his ears, "What are you willing to do in my bed? "

"Sleep" the younger teased shrugging his shoulders, looking for the older's reaction.

Pedro bit his lower lip and smiled; looking excruciatingly handsome with his bed hair and sleepy eyes.

"Sweetheart, I'm gonna make sure you don't sleep at all tonight " he whispered, placing a wet kiss on the younger's jaw.

Gavi looked like a deer caught in the headlights, he felt the excitement buzz spread through his body thinking about the night already.

"Pedro no.... " He whined, finally breaking away from his hold and standing up over the bed.

"Pedro, yes..." the older replied, trying to copy his whiny voice as the younger stomped out into the bathroom shutting the door behind him .

They showered separately, although most days they just got into the shower together as though it was perfectly normal for two 'friends' to wash each other without any sexual activities. Sometimes, they did behave too much like a couple.

They shared light hearted conversations as they ate breakfast  and got ready; everything about their relationship was so easy , like they didn't even have to try. They were made for each other, ofcourse in a platonic way; atleast it's what they 'believe' .

Finally, it was time to head to Camp Nou for the match that day. They travelled in silence as Pedri played Gavi's favourite playlist and settled  his hand on the younger's thigh, fingers tapping gently to the music; it was in the little things that the older did that made Pablo's heart twist in certain ways.

Real Sociedad were never an easy team to play; infact in football no team could ever be  considered easy. It's like there's no king, no servant; all are equal irrespective of how big their club is, how massive their fanbase may be, at the end of the day, anyone could destroy anyone in the brutal field surrounded by chants from thousands and thousands of fans.

As they stood in the tunnel minutes before the match; Gavi could already feel the all to familiar rush of adrenaline, his increased heartbeat vibrating in his ears with excitement and bones cracking with nervousness. It was all too much to contain and could be tamed only when he was out on the field.

He felt Pedri's presence behind him and turned back to smile at the older boy who was already looking at him with a smug expression. Gavi wondered what he was thinking about but before he could ponder any longer,  the players started moving out the tunnel as the cheers from the fans grew louder and louder untill his body grew numb to any other feeling.

The first half passed by in a fog of frustration; endless running, tackling, dribbling, passing but nothing resulted in a goal. Both teams were getting increasingly aggressive and irritated, neither of them being able to score. Barca with their 70% possession weren't able to find the end of the net meanwhile Real Sociedad, whenever they would have the ball, would go full on attacking mode; players moving past all their midfielders and defenders and shooting straight for the goal. Barca were lucky Marc was there to block out every single devastatingly precise shots from the opposing team .

The halftime whistle sounded and the teams headed into their locker rooms. Xavi was raging at his team; every single player in Barcelona was considered a star player, even the substitutes!! Yet, they lacked so much team understanding, it was frustrating to watch. Yes, he understood that it was a new team; a mix of young and experienced old players, but still he'd rather much have them use THAT as a strength and not their weakness.

The moment the second half started it was like Barca was a new team. The short passes were much cleaner, their wide passes were a delight catching the right player every time. Soon the entire team was moving with the flow; heart beating with the same rythm, the colours of Blaugrana moving with them.

Finally in the 63rd minute, Gavi made a long pass to Pedri on the left . And... before Gavi could even process what happened . The crowd went wild with Pedri's goal ! It was unreal; he just slid past four defenders!! Dropping two of them to the floor and then  kicking the ball at lightning speed, it went  past the outstretched legs of the other two players and the hands of the keeper. Pedri was truly unbelievable..

The entire stadium erupted with chants of the older's name while all the Barca players ran to him; hugs and pats and choruses of 'vamos!' all mixed into one.

After the rest of the players dispersed off, Gavi lingered around the older a little longer, arms around each other's shoulders as they walked back to their position next to each other.

Gavi was feeling a little mischievous or maybe it was the adrenaline rush, he brought his hand up to cover his mouth as he said, "You can have me however you want tonight.."  separating himself from the older, he almost laughed as he saw Pedri gulp with wide eyes, his already flush cheeks turning darker.

The game ended 3:0, the second from Robert assisted by Gavi again and another goal from Ousmane in the extra time. The team were very pleased with the results as the final whistle blew and the players went about with the usual customary handshakes, awkwards side hugs, countless 'you played well' muttered to randomly anyone. After celebrating with the fans, they were all able to head down to their locker rooms.

The mood in the locker room was just everything a footballer could dream of ; the happiness radiating off everyone's eyes. They had just extended their lead in La Liga, but more importantly, they'd shown excellent teamwork in the second half; it was almost all too good to be true. Xavi even said that if they continued to play as they had in their second half then the new era of  prime Barcelona was not too far away. It was the best compliment the team had ever heard from their coach; it made Sergio almost tear up thinking of his old teammates.

After his talk, Xavi left the players to continue their celebration. The team almost immediately rushed into celebration as nothing had happened jumping with excitement at the possibility of what they could become; it was the feeling that they were a part of  something that would go down in the books of football history.

In the midst of all that Gavi catched the eyes of the older who gave him a wink and mouthed 'keep your word'. Suddenly, the younger regretted saying what he said on the pitch.  He felt all the blood drain from his face.

Ansu, who had been beside him the whole time saw the change in his friend's demeanor and got worried , "You okay, bro? You look like you saw a ghost?"

"Nothing, just tired.." Gavi shook his head, trying to enjoy the moment for now.

After everyone finally calmed down, showered and changed, the team captains discussed that maybe another celebration at the nightclub was probably not the best thing to do right now considering they had just gone out a few nights ago after the match with Pedri and Frenkie's return. And although it sounded silly, they didn't want the tags of 'party monsters' adding unnecessary drama to the already scandalous club.

*****

Gavi couldn't help but notice Pedri's smile the whole way to his appartment. He was slightly confused, was he that happy with the goal?

"What's got you in such a good mood?" He asked finally.

"Mmm... Nothing, just thinking."

The younger hated the vagueness in his tone

"About what??"

"You... " was Pedro's simple reply.

That's it. The younger almost jumped out the car through the window.

Even the older was surprised by what he said himself. When did he get so sappy?

"Yeah yeah... Whatever"

The moment they headed inside the front door to Pedri's appartment, he crowded the younger into the wall; pressing kisses along his neck licking up to his jawline and biting his ear gently.

He took the younger's hand in his and led them to his bedroom, almost running at this point.

They entered the room, Gavi's lips immediately on the older's jaw; kissing the line along his slight stubble and sucking a spot  below the older's ears where he knew he was sensitive. He felt the older's grip around his hips tighten as he pushed them closer to each other.

"Wait" he said, as Gavi tried to pull up his shirt asking him to take it off.

"You said you'd do anything" he said, taking a  step backwards.

The younger frowned, "Yeah so?" his voice all out of breath already.

His confusion only increased when the older disappeared into his walk in closet and reappeared with what looked like a shopping bag. Not saying anything he handed it to the younger. He looked at the logo.

VS.... Victoria's secret..

"No" was his immediate reply. "Whatever you're thinking, not gonna happen" he threw the bag on the sofa in his room .

"Baby, please...." Pedri was already in his personal space, hands tucking long strands of Gavi's hair behind his hair and holding his face.

"Don't treat me like a fucking girl" Gavi hissed, his eyes in anger; the same look he usually gave the rival teams.

Pedri felt a sting in his heart never having been on the receiving end of the younger's temper like that.

"Listen it's fine if you don't wanna wear it but...you know I went shopping with Ferran last week to help him buy a gift for Sira for their anniversary?...We were at this store in the mall and I saw this on a mannequin... It made me think of you for some fucking reason and you wouldn't believe it but.... I actually got hard in public... " the older laughed trailing off.

"I don't even know why I bought it; I thought you'd wear it by some miracle but whatever..." he ran his thumb over the younger's lips, he wanted to kiss him right now... No.

"I'd never force you into something you don't want, don't stress about it" he whispered gently, bending down to place kisses on the younger's neck . Gavi turned to looked at the bag thrown on the sofa.

He felt strangely guilty for rejecting the older after clearly telling him that he would do anything he wanted on the pitch. And for some sick reason, he wanted to try on whatever was in that bag if it meant the older being quenched of his desire of seeing Gavi in it.

"Pe-Pedri" he spoke, voice uncertain...

"I'll wear it..." he spoke , his own voice sounding timid to him.

"You don't have to babe" Pedri replied dissmissively, not stopping for a second with the kisses.

It took a lot out of Gavi to say what he said next.

"I want to..." He swallowed,  " but for your eyes only..."

The older stopped his actions as he looked to the beautiful boy in front of him, wide doe eyes staring into his; how was he so lucky to have him? He didn't want his thoughts to linger on the fact that he actually didn't really 'have him' .

"Okay babe... If you're perfectly fine with it, only if.." he smiled at him; the smile that reached his eyes.

Gavi didn't reply as he went over to grab the bag, a million thoughts running through his mind and yet, managed to go over to the walk in closet shutting himself in.

He peeked into the bag;  black.... Phew.. atleast the older didn't go for a bright red or blue.. He took out the small piece of clothing, he didn't even know how to wear the damn thing. The tag said it was a 'three piece garter lingerie' ... Whatever that meant.

No... He couldn't wear it, let's just get out of here and tell Pedri he couldn't .

Yes, he could .. it kind of turned him on.

No, it's too much or rather, too little.

Come one Gavi!! It's not like the older hasn't already seen you naked, moaning under him . This is nothing!!

There was a war raging in his mind, going back and forth .

Pedri on the other side wasn't too good either. He wondered if he crossed the line with the younger. But he couldn't stop think about Gavi wearing it ever since the day he'd seen it in the mall. He'd stroked himself to a sweet release in the mall restroom with a blur vision of the younger wearing it, but ofcourse Gavi didn't have to know that. Infact, he'd come to the image of that multiple times last week.

So as he sat, with his hands on his lap, excited and nervous at the same time he felt his heart stop when he saw Gavi finally come out.

He wasn't wearing it, he was in the same clothes he had on earlier. It's okay, he thought to himself, he really was okay. He wasn't going to pressure the younger into anything he didn't want.

He immediately went up to the younger and hugged him, face buried in his shoulder.

"I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable" he spoke against him, and broke the hug to look at the younger's face. Gavi was a dream; really so very pretty, no wonder he had all these girls swooning over him , even the princess! He didn't want to think of the other boys that found him pretty too.

His vision closed in on his lips, he looked so kissable right now with his blush and his brown hair, his brown eyes, his skin... Oh fuck it.

"Can I kiss you?"

Gavi's eyes widened but didn't waste a single second to nod his head, as cute as a puppy.

The moment he felt the older's lips on his; he knew time had stopped, he saw fireworks in the background, the ground grew flowers of gentle hues and the world seemed to burn with bright colours of euphoria.

It was just lips against lips; then why did it feel like so much more? Slow movements savouring the taste of each other. They both knew this feeling was long overdue, so they were going to spend every single second living in it.

He gasped when he felt the older nibble at his plump lower lips, Pedri licked the lips his teeth had grazed and slid his tongue into the younger. His hands reached up to grab Gavi's face and turn him slightly upwards to him, a gentle thumb lowering his chin to keep his mouth slightly open.

The older's tongue moved against his own as Gavi tried to keep up with him; returning the kiss with as much passion and longing, hands loosely on the older's waist.

Pedri deepened the kiss; neither of them breaking apart for air, they were just breathing against each other's lips and it was the most sensual thing either of them had ever experienced.

Their emotions riding high, their hearts on their sleeves, the kisses were unsaid words of longing and desire. Neither of them knew this yet , but this was what love felt like ...

Gavi couldn't help but moan into the kiss when the older sucked on his tongue pulling him impossibly closer. He brought his hands up to tug on the older's hair and moved his lips to the older's motion.

After what felt like an eternity, they finally broke apart, even though neither of them wanted to; the feeling almost devastating as though they'd never kiss again. Pedri drank in the sight of Gavi;  swollen bruised lips, flush high on his cheeks going up to his ears, he could imagine his own condition wasn't any better...

He finally gathered the energy to speak atleast for the sake of the younger boy, he pressed his forehead against Gavi's and gently stroked his cheek.

"I could kiss my baby all night..."

"Mm... Same" the poor boy's voice was shaking with the aftershock.

But Pedro mistook it for something else.

"Gavi, it's okay... You didn't have to even wear it. Just forget about what I said okay?" He pressed another kiss to his lips.

The younger frowned at his words...

"But, Pedri, I am wearing 'it'....under my clothes..."
