In the Wake of Loss by luxover (R)

Fandom: FOOTBALL (SOCCER) RPF
Pairing: Cristiano Ronaldo/Lionel Messi
Length: ~8000 words

Why this must be read: it takes some doing to make this pairing work, but work it does! Major props for not white-washing Cristiano Ronaldo in the slightest - he's self-centered and narcissistic and really a lousy boyfriend, but still somehow likeable. The cameos from minor characters are wonderful too.

I never though that I'd see footy fic here. :) Fabulous rec on a crack paring that I honestly never though I'd ever see.

plenty more where this came from! :D and you know, Cris/Leo is a really weird idea but when it works, it WORKS. (nahco3 has a couple more, I think...)
