I was wondering with the au where pedro is dani's son, does fermin and pedro's relationship end up being saved?
Maybe with dani as his father he won't let rivalry ruin their friendship, or maybe Jorge will make him realise he has a crush on fermin (dani didn't want to interfere, but Jorge didn't want pedri to do the same mistakes he did even if in a somewhat different situation)
You have no idea how much I thought about that and I love you for giving me a chance to talk about it.
I absolutely love your idea and how you said it. Like. MWHA. Chefs kiss. Especially with Jorge intervention while Dani stayed away. I did NOT even consider it but it's so great. Like Jorge wants Pedro to not make the same mistake. He knows what's it like to love someone you hate. Also... I totally can see parallels between Jorge's character when he was younger and Pedro. It's literally one of my favorite things in this AU. (like both are a bit direct, bordering in rude, Jorge even more than Pedro etc) So it'd make sense that Jorge tries to not let Pedro repeat his mistakes. Like he sits him down and tells him how he shouldn't let their fight determine his future. Maybe he even brings up the 2019 seat thing and tells/ reminds Pedro how close they (Dani and Jorge) were to breaking up. And that relationships are difficult.
And my favorite implication about what you said is that maybe Jorge understands Pedro better and understands how important Fermin is to Pedro while Dani assumes it's just a normal teenage crush...
Oh and about the fight itself, one reason could be simply bad phrasing. Like maybe Fermin said something that sounded to Pedro like he was only friends because of who Pedro's parents are and now he's scared Fermin was never really his friend/ never loved him and just thought he was stable or a good choice because of his family.
Now the thing is... I thought about that too and my idea was this: Pedro is... A bit stupid. So what if. At like 15, he finds out about the whole *his dad's hated each other and wanted to constantly fight the other for like.... A good decade.*. Like sure he knew but now he actually looked into it and had a holy fuck how did you ended up being married? moment.
So either he goes and asks his uncle Vale or his dad's and maybe Jorge says something along the lines of "Hating your father made me realize how much I actually love him. It sounds weird, I know. But the thought of not having him around, his annoyed look in his eyes or his snarky comments, his feisty replies and the way he takes no bullshit... I wanted to see all that. I wanted to see him angry because I loved it. I love him when he's gentle and calm and I love him when he's loud and angry. (side note: imagine how important that actually must have been for a young, traumatized Jorge who probably was scared shitless to end up in an unhappy relationship where he's scared of his partner being angry) I loved seeing him angry." "Dad can you not tell me about your anger kink for papa? Thank you." *pulls a disgusted face. But essentially he understands that their hate for each other showed them that they could love each other despite their flaws and even when they were angry...
So now Pedro thinks that's the proper way. He needs to hate Fermin first before he can really love him. Pedro wants to find out if he can live without Fermin or if he only loves Fermin because they grew up together and he's just comfortable a part of his life. So he finds something to hate Fermin for. And they grow apart... For now. (His dad's don't know and only finds out years later and Jorge will face palm himself while Dani isn't sure if he should have gotten Pedro tested for... Something. Anything really. Because wtf.)
