A lie ||-Erick Brian Colon-||

Apartment

"Olivia's" pov:

Erick got back at like 1 pm, a bit early but luckily for me, I had Olivia's backstory covered. I didn't have the energy to come up with a whole new persona so I just used my own story, making tweaks here and there.

After he got back the doctors gave me a check one last time- I need to rest and apparently, my ankle got twisted so I have to be careful not to put too much pressure on it. All in all, I'll be good as new in a week but that's way too long. Knowing Zach he's probably scouted a quarter of Miami by now. But then again, I don't think even he would dream that I'm living with my childhood crush

Erick insisted on carrying me but I've got crutches. We got into his car, the same one he'd hit me with, and drove to his apartment complex. On the way he tried flirting and even though it took every bit of restraint I had, I didn't flirt back and shut him down every time but I will say whenever he touched my thigh or put his hand behind my seat to reverse into his parking spot, I felt butterflies for some reason.

The apartment building was huge, it probably had about 500 floors and Erick lived on the 298th floor, not exactly ideal for me considering my fear of heights. We walked into the lobby, it was huge btw with red sofas and carpets leading the way to the elevator. Erick went to greet the receptionist and by the looks of it, you could clearly tell she wanted him. I immediately felt hatred and the fact that they were so touchy with each other fueled it ."Chill girl" I told myself, Erick can do what he wants, it's not like you're dating him or anything. Eyes on the prize. Don't get distracted. I calmed myself and went to say 'hi' with honestly no ill intent, I didn't need more enemies. 

I went over and said "Hey" in the nicest way possible but the second she saw that I was with Erick, she turned icy," Are you the help, because no need, we offer room service here". Aight bitch, your call, I tried to be nice. I was preparing to show her her place when Erick saw me, I think he knew someone would get murdered so he rushed me to the elevator. On the way there he tried to lighten the mood by telling jokes and they were so bad that I actually laughed.

"Here we are chica", he said turning the key in the lock. He opened the door to reveal a huge apartment but cozy nonetheless and it was surprisingly very clean. Just then I saw Erick's mom come out of the kitchen she saw her son and smiled until she spotted me. Her smile wavered for a sec before coming right back on. I expected this. "¿Eres la chica de Erick?" she asked me sweetly. Oh so that's why she stopped smiling, she was probably tired of Erick's flings but lucky for her, I was not. "Mamá ella no habla español", Erick told his mother. "No umm, soy Olivia, Erick desearía estarlo, en realidad estoy aquí porque Erick decidió que la mejor manera de llamar mi atención era golpeándome con su auto." I told her nervously. That got some reactions. "YOU HIT HER WITH YOUR CAR, ERICK, YOU ARE NOT 5, TALK TO HER IF YOU LIKE HER AND NOT RUN HER OVER-ayy-I'm sorry sweetie, I'm Daysi", she yelled at Erick in Spanish before introducing herself to me. I smiled but got a  stink eye from Erick. "Mami I didn't hit her on purpose, she'd kidding- I was in a rush and missed the stoplight" that didn't satisfy Daysi but Erick changed the topic and showed me to my room.

He opened the door to the room and told me was there if I needed anything. I told him thanks but that I was too tired to do anything and I was probably gonna sleep for the day. Before leaving he asked, " Are you Hispanic''-"No, but I needed to learn the language of my inlaws" "Inlaws huh? So your goal in life was to marry me, I'm sorry to say that's a bit pathetic" he joked. "Ok calm down, I was 14, I didn't have much going on, and wait- who said anything about marrying you, you're in a band with 4 other hot guys, do the math." He went speechless before deciding on an "I hate you"-"You love me" I replied sarcastically. "I think I just might", pulling me into a hug by the waist, HOW DID HE KNOW THAT WAS MY WEAKNESS?????????? He smelled so good!!!! "What are you doing?" I asked him in a very Hermione-type voice when I finally caught my breath. "Hugging you goodnight" he replied softly-"Goodnight Princesa" he whispered in my ear. WOW, I CAN'T BREATHE. SNAP TF OUT OF IT.

Despite how much I loved it I pulled out of the hug," Erick let's get something straight- I can't love you and you don't love, we can't making anything out of that so please let's leave it at that" I told him, it hurt, but in the end, it was for his own good. "But" he started. "No, but's", I silenced him by putting a finger on his lips." Goodnight Erick" and with that, I pushed him out of the room.

I stashed my bag in a cupboard and got ready for bed the hospital provided the essentials and Erick had bought a night suit when I was first brought in. Everything hurt so much but I managed to climb into bed and like that, I was out like a light

Erick's pov:

After Olivia kicked me out of the room, I felt depressed, I wasn't going to stop pursuing her but it still hurt. I had an hour before I had to meet the boys so I decided to just chill on the couch and find out more about Olivia, but she was a ghost- nothing-no insta, no snap, no Twitter. Oh well.

With the Boys

I met up with them outside of the sony building. I left early so they were still there. The first one to meet me was Chris who basically tackled me in a bear hug. Rich, Joel, and Zabdi gave me a fist bump or high five each. They noticed something was up with me and so I told them how I hit someone with a car and now that someone is staying with me. "YOU DID WHAT?????" they all practically screamed. "RELAX, she's fine. It's nothing serious" with that Chris's ears perked up."Ooo a SHE. Is she hot?" unbelievable, this dude was already planning on hitting on her. By the looks on their faces, they all were. Lucky for me, she made it clear she didn't want anything with anyone. "Dude, she's radiant but she doesn't want anything, I tried and crashed and burned."

They saw that I was dejected so they told me to forget her and whisked me off to a nightclub. I actually had fun and guess who I met, Sasha, the receptionist, I needed a distraction and she's been trying to get with me since she started working at the front desk so I thought, why not- and took her home.
