Title: The favorite
Summary: Players can't get pizza because Mourinho said no, so the Real Madrid players send it the newest addition to the team.
Words: Idk
Is this good: Absolutely not
Will it be posted on my ao3: Nah
--------- enjoy -----------
"I just want to get pizza" Marcelo whined, flopping down onto Sergio’s bed, "Why is Mourinho killing us??"
Cristiano just shook his head, not paying attention to his friend's whining. He just scrolled through his phone. He was never much of a fan of greasy food and believed that it shouldn't go in your body, so he refused to even acknowledge that his friends wanted pizza.
Even though the hotel's restaurant is full of fantastic and delicious meals.
"Honestly, I could go for it too" Sergio shrugged, "We deserve it. I mean, after all this and that, and everything else, I think we do"
Pepe shrugged "Tell that to Mourinho, Sese. There's no way he'd allow it. He wants us to be like Cris and just eat pure food made in holy water."
Cris whipped his head up, sending a glare to Pepe who couldn't help but laugh at the look on his friend's face "I'm kidding, I'm kidding, don't be so serious." "Don't insult my diet then" Cris just replied, shrugging..
"But if you guys want pizza then why not just ask Mourinho?" Cris wondered, looking back to his phone and yet again looking uninterested.
"We tried!" Marcelo told his Portuguese friend "But he said no! Said it's bad for us and we shouldn't eat it before a match- Even though it's tomorrow at 6! I mean it's not like we'll eat pizza for every meal ever from now on- It's just one pizza, two slices, that's it" he sighed "Why is that so hard to understand. I just wish he’d listen to US for once..”
The four people in the room became quiet, just staring at the ground or at the ceiling, like Marcelo was, or their phone, like Cristiano was..
Then Sergio spoke up, lips slightly pouted as he thought about the idea going through his head “Well.. maybe we can’t make him listen to us” he turned his gaze to Marcelo, who looked back at him without sitting up or moving from his position on the bed, “But SOMEONE can..”
Marcelo blinked..
“What do you mean by that? He literally won’t listen to any of us”
“No, not any of us” Sergio smirked, suddenly getting a mischievous look in his eyes “But maybe he’ll listen to a certain.. new signing? A Croatian he desperately wanted to bring to Real and spent blood, sweat and tears to get him here?”
“You mean Luka?” Marcelo raised an eyebrow, “Why would Mourinho listen to him?”
Sergio blinked, frowning “Didn’t you hear what I just said? Of course he’ll listen- He desperately wanted to sign him and has been treating him GREAT the two months he’s already here” the Spaniard explained, “I mean he stopped training all together yesterday because Luka had to stop and tie his shoelaces. Then spent 5 minutes explaining something to him.”
“Sese DOES have a point” Pepe had to agree with his friend. “And in all honesty I think he's right. It's probably the only way to get a pizza."
"And what if it doesn't work?" Marcelo had to ask. And Sergio shrugged "We fail we fail, what can you do. I think we should still try."
....
Pepe sighed "Let's do it, what's the worst thing that can happen?"
Sergio sprang up out of his seat, standing up and raising his hand up in a fist "Let's do this then!"
Cris blinked.. "How are you captain?"
"Fuck you-"

Luka woke up to a knock on his door. He yawned, slowly sitting up. He hated moving away from the warm and comfortable covers of his bed, but the sudden and loud noise left him with no choice. A quick glance to the phone showed him it was around 2 pm, not too long after he told Mourinho he'd be taking a nap.
Luka had absolutely no clue why he was being woken up and even thought about ignoring it and just going back to bed. But that proves to je out of the option when more knocking came up.
He sighed and slowly stood up, swinging his legs over the bed before placing them onto the floor. He stood up and walked over, fully expecting just one person, maybe Mourinho, maybe someone from the staff or maybe even someone from his team but..
He definitely didn't expect to find Mourinho at his door with Sergio Ramos and Marcelo right behind him...
What the actual fu-
"Hello, Luka, I hope we didn't interrupt you" Mourinho spoke, "Sergio and Marcelo here came to me telling me you needed something. Is that true?"
Luka raise an eyebrow.. Had he been doing something in his sleep? That's new. Though one look at Marcelo and Sergio told him enough.
Those two were smiling nervously at him.
They wanted him to say yes.
Sigh..
Luka looked back to Mourinho and nodded his head "Mhm, yes"
And Sergio and Marcelo looked at Mourinho, staring like the man was going to scream his head off at Luka, like he was going to explode at the Croat.
It's like they were fully expecting that. But.. Mourinho remained normal, stoic as ever, just like he always was with Luka.
The Croat remembered something about Mourinho acting differently around him? But he never believed that story at all.
"What is it?" The coach wondered, "Are you uncomfortable? Did something happen?"
And Luka yet again glanced at them, at Sergio and Marcelo, for some sort of clue. And he was met with Sergio pointing a finger to his lips and Marcelo rubbing his stomach.. ight
Luka cleared his throat "I'm.. hungry"
"Well you can go downstairs to the kitchen. Do you need help speaking Spanish to them? They understand English."
Sergio and Marcelo shook their heads at Luka.
"No" Luka answered, "Um.. I don't want anything from the kitchen."
Mourinho hummed "Alright.." and Luka, for a moment, thought he was pushing it but Mourinho continued "And what did you want?"
And that's when Sergio and Marcelo paused, wide eyed.. Because the two had no idea how to gesture that one. So Luka was left to his own devices.. "Oh uh.." he blinked, running his palm over his forearm, "I was.. hoping to order something?"
Sergio and Marcelo seemed to sigh in relief behind him, though without audio-
Luka was right.
Mourinho nodded his head "Of course. What?"
"Um.." Luka gulped, "Well... Pizza?"
Mourinho paused.. "Pizza? Did Sergio and Marcelo put you up to this?"
Oh thank God he was right.
Luka's eyes widened "What? No, no, of course not, sir. I didn't even know they liked pizza."
What a big fat lie..
Mourinho hummed, looking over the Croat with suspicious eyes but in the end just sighed and nodded his head "You can. But don't make a habit out of it, you know you need to stay fit." "Yes" Luka agreed, "I know. This is the last time."
"Good" Mourinho hummed, "You can order it"
Sergio and Marcelo were doing a celebratory dance behind Mourinho. But then the coach added "And you better come to show me it. Because I will not let these two, who don't think I can see them, eat it."
.... Welp
At least it kind of worked. Luka couldn't help but laugh at the shocked looks on Sergio and Marcelo.
