meretriculaso I guess the idea is to just post the first sentence of the last twenty-one fics I've written? anyway that's what I'm going to do.
1. Everyone told Leo two things afterward: he'd been stupid, and he'd been lucky.
2. "Babe? Sara, are you home?"
3. "Come up, hang out a while," Juan said with an easy smile.
4. "We had a good run," he said, almost abstractly.
5. Xavi was already on the phone in the hotel lobby when David stumbled downstairs for breakfast, despite the disgustingly early hour.
6. "Jesus Christ, Mario," Roberto spat.
7. "Hey hotshot, I hear you're off to Barcelona again," Theo said, laughing.
8. Mario was looking forward to a quiet week or two of vacation before he had to show up for preseason.
9. Victor was already sitting on the bench when the coach finally pulled Andres off in the sixty-somethingth minute, and despite all the players squashed into the technical area there was plenty of space to either side of him.
10. Andres followed Xavi to his room and then, when Xavi didn't say anything or even pause at the door, trailed inside after him.
11. "I missed you," Rafa announced, apropos of nothing.
12. David could tell that Messi -- Leo, he might as well call him Leo if he was going to be poking around in David's head -- was still a little upset as soon as he laid eyes on him, and that threw him, because he didn't know how he knew.
13. It took longer for Andres to notice than it should have, but he had the excuse of a new family of his own.
14. Kelly fell asleep on the plane to Germany.
15. "You're going to Madrid?" Andres asked, his lower lip visibly quivering.
16. Rafa heard the news on deadline day, the same as all the fans; he was at lunch with Andy and David and they all looked up from their phones at the same instant.
17. There were two types of people in Bluebell, Alabama: the kind who left, and the kind who stayed.
18. "Look after your sister," were the last words Dis said to Kili before he and Fili left their home in the mountains for the lowlands, traveling to join their uncle at his forge in one of the towns of Men.
19. In 2007 they went down to Nacional, and Berta quit football for good.
20. Novak was taking a water break from practice - serve, serve, always the serve, but if he was going to double fault worse than Fernando Verdasco god knew he needed it - when he noticed his phone was buzzing on the bench.
21. Word in the break room was that the new part-timer, who was notable mainly for his ability to bring shy children out of their shells and his extensive collection of hideous cardigans, had been picked up after closing last night by a tattooed skinhead on a motorcycle.
