title vuelo rating pg word count 1,365 pairing blink-and-you'll-miss-it sergio ramos/fernando torres, olalla dominguez/fernando torres summary in 2007, fernando torres leaves atletico madrid to go to liverpool.
As a boy, he doesn't know the feeling or the noise or the elation of 54, 831 people chanting his name, but when he wakes up, he looks at the red and white jersey hanging on the wall above his bed and thinks, someday. the whole section was my fav.
But when he tries to picture himself playing in the Calderón, everything falls away and he's wearing the red and white stripes again. this like makes me pang and errr and i'm a madridista who hates atleti HAHAHAHAH
On screen, Steven Gerrard puts three goals past Iker Casillas. thinking about the xabi pks iker saved.
Sergio grumbles and tosses his controller at Fernando's head. CAN I JUST.
MARRY HIM OR SOMETHING LIKE HAHAHAHAHAH I LOVE HIM S O M U C H
The blaugrana shirt looks a little more natural, he thinks. He pictures himself playing alongside Messi, Ronaldinho. He pictures himself terrorizing the defenses of Spain, of Europe. He can almost taste the silverware. But when he tries to picture himself playing in the Calderón, everything falls away and he's wearing the red and white stripes again.
He remembers Xabi, then. He remembers Xabi telling him about how one night, the sky exploded in red.
He thinks, red. He can wear red.
He dreams of red confetti and a European championship.
Walk on, walk on.
Be easier if I quote the whole thing, really. Lovely.
no, seriously. i love all the feelings that emit from each passage. there's something about it all that just sits with me and makes me think about Nando just reaching and reaching. ♥
♥ i'm so glad you like it, especially because you like watching atleti (right? i'm not making that up???) i felt like i didn't want to insult atleti but i needed to write this
I've been an emotional wreck these days and this almost had me in tears. This is beautiful, this step by step story, the story about his way to us. We're so lucky to (still) have him. Thank you.
we are so lucky to have him (my lfc sweater arrived today!) i just felt when i was writing this that i needed something good about liverpool, and fernando was the first thing that came to mind. i'm so glad it touched you, my dear, i really am
