my bestfriend's brother .

chapter 12

i wake up to a weird burning smell.

"don't tell me ava's cooking" i say groaning while getting up

i walk into the mirror and see the bruises on my thigh. i gulp and hide them. i walk downstairs to see mattia on the couch, ava and alejandro trying to cook, and kairi just laughing at them as they're making a mess.

"hey you're up" she says

i make eye contact with mattia but he looks away and shakes his head

"yeaaa what time is it" i ask her

"6:48 a.m" she answers back

i walk to her forgetting how much it hurts

"ow fuck" i whisper

"why are you walking like that" she asks

"uh i fell really hard last night" i say

"you got some dick" she says

i start choking on my orange juice

"i didn't" i say low

"you what" ale asks

"i didn't get any dick" i say a little loudly

"not any i wanted" i whisper so only i could hear it

"omg i saw the weirdest thing last night" ava tells us "3 dudes were coming downstairs and they had beanies over their heads"

"oh you saw that too" ale says

"yea i saw that too" kairi says "then they went into the back and took them off"

"how'd you know" mattia asks

shut up.

"found it at the back when i went out there to throw up" he says

"they were buff guys though" alejandro says

i get up and slam my dish into the sink making it quiet. i look at everyone and walk up to my room and lock my door.

mattia's pov

"what's wrong with her" i ask ava

she shrugs her shoulders

"i don't know" she says "are you guys not speaking to each other?"

"why you ask that" i say

"cause you didn't wake her up this morning" kairi tells me

"yea and you always do" alejandro adds in

"i guess i forgot" i lie "you should go check on her"

ava's pov

"yea you're right" i say "i'll be back"

i head upstairs and knock onto y/n's door.

"hey baby, are you okay?" i ask

i hear her sniffle "yea i'm good"

"can you open the door?" i ask her

few seconds later she opens the door with a smile

"what's wrong?"

"nothing is wrong" she says

"your mouth is telling me a different story" i say

she closes the door and lays on her bed. i sit next to her

"i miss my dad" she says

i sigh "i know y/n. your dad wouldn't want his daughter sad over this still. he's always told you when he got sick that no matter what happens don't let this affect your life. yes i know he's your dad and yes i know it hits hard but you can't let it get in the way. you can't grieve forever baby"
