"There are still players i didn't met? I've already forgot the names of the others!" we both started laughing.
"There are only 3 players left i promise." he smiled.
"So the last 3 are...."I looked up and saw the dark skinned boy again. I already zoomed out again and looked at him.
All of a sudden someone snapped their fingers in front of my face."Hailey hello? Are you still listening or are you overwhelmed with all these names again haha?" Gavi looked at me and i asked him about their names again.
"Okay one last time: Ronald, Jules and this is Ansu but i've already told you his name." Right, it was Ansu.
"Nice to meet you!" I smiled at the three of them but again stopped at Ansu. Now he looked me in the eyes too but this time i felt the heat coming up my face and i turned completely red. I looked away and started to concentrate on something else but i just couldn't.
Gavi and the others didn't even noticed because the talked about something else.
Suddenly Ansu started talking to me.
"Hey nice to meet you. Hailey was your name, right? It's a really beautiful name."
"Yeah i'm Hailey. Thank you." I had the feeling my face would explode every minute, i was so embarrassed.
I tried to keep up the conversation and to not make it awkward."I like yours too. Where does it come from? I mean it's not a typical Spanish name."
"I'm actually from Guinea-bissau. I came here when i was 6. Ansu is also just a nickname that everyone uses. My full name ist Anssumane." he explained it to me while smiling the entire time. I couldn't help but smile too because he seemed so proud of his home country.
"That's so interesting! I-"
I was interrupted by my dad who called for the players to come and continue their training. I was a bit disappointed."I'm sorry we don't have enough time to talk. I'm sure we'll meet again soon!" he said with his handsome smile.
"Sure!" i said. Walking back to the bench, my face already hurt because i was smiling so hard the entire time.
"Hola mi amor. I saw you got to know the players a bit more. Gavi is a nice guy, isn't he?" my father said walking towards me.
"Hola Papá! Yes Gavi was very nice. He told me all the names of the players and i talked with everyone a bit. To be honest i forgot almost every name haha!"
"That's no problem. I'm sure you'll remember them soon. Let's practice. I point to someone and you have to say their name okay?" he said.
"Okay sure."
We where almost done and i was doing surprisingly good. The last one he pointed at was Ansu.
"This is Ansu." is said. My face plastered with a big smile. I just couldn't get my eyes off of him. But why?
"This was a fast response! I've never seen you smile like that mi amor! What about him?"
"I don't know. I talked to him for a bit and he was very nice to me. I watched him also before i got to know them all. I noticed him right away." i turned completely red while talking about him.
Hailey calm down you've known him for about an hour now.
"Your face is so red. Are you falling in love?" my father laughed and walked away again.
Am i falling in love even though i don't even know him?
It was getting late and training was about to end when someone fell into a chair next to me.
I looked over and saw Ansu. Omg Hailey keep calm.
"Hey! I thought i maybe come over to you again after we got interrupted."
"Oh yeah sure that's nice of you."
"So what did you wanted to say before?" he asked.
"Ehm.." i started to stutter because i was so nervous and i didn't know what to say to him. To my luck another player named Alejandro came and sat next to Ansu.
"Hey, did i bother you two?" Alejandro asked.
"No, it's fine! You played really good today!" i said to make the situation less awkward.
"Thank you!" he answered. They both smiled at me and then started to talk about some type of important league they are in but i couldn't pay enough attention because Ansu was still sitting next to me.
"All good?" Gavi came and rescued me. He took a seat on the other side from me.
"Yeah all good. Just thinking you know." i answered smiling.
"About?" Gavi please.
"No it's nothing." i said still smiling so he would believe me and change the topic.
He just nodded and started to drink his water.
What do you think about it so far?
