(Y/N)'s POV:
I finally leave the event and find some space to clear my mind. Although it is only a small concern for me, I think it is possible that I needed it as well.

As I walked out of Casita, I noticed Cristina walking closer to me.

"(Y/N), where are you going?" she asked as she walked with me and held the two glasses carefully.

"I need to breath some air," I replied.

"Ah what happened?" she asked as she walked faster and went to my front. And I stayed silent for a few seconds. I don't know if I will answer it or not, because I think she knows why and when I am like this. We've been best friends for so many years.

"No answer? Anyway, here's your drink. I'm sorry if it takes too long. There were many people in the lane. They want drinks too," she said as she gave the glass to me. And then she looked at my back, and I was confused about it. The party was going on behind me, so she definitely knew the reason.

"Thank you," I said as I held it.

"Let's talk about it on the outside, can we?" she asked as she placed her hand on my shoulder.

"Yep," I answered, and she nodded.

"Let's go then," she agreed, and I nodded. I proceeded to walk in the direction of the exit, but I felt that she was not following me.

"Uh, Cristina, aren't you going with me to the outside?" I asked, with a curious expression on my face.

"Ah yes, you can go first. I think someone called me here," she answered.

"Okay! Be careful," I warned, and she nodded as she smiled.

Cristina's POV:
"Okay! Be careful," (Y/N) said, and I nodded as I smiled. Then, she proceeded to walk.

As she left, I looked back again at the event and at the spotlight where Camilo was and his fiancée. So, I realized that this was his engagement party. I knew it then, but maybe this is the reason why (Y/N) was acting strange again. She must be hurt by it, I guess.

I felt that someone was calling me in here. However, I can't figure out where it was. I just proceeded to walk, but someone held my wrist.

"Hey, Cristina," someone whispered, and it must be Carlos.

"What do you want? Why don't you just call my name rather than hold my wrist? Don't be like a creep, jeez," I said as I was trying to pull my wrist from him.

"Oh, sorry about that." Then he finally let it go.

"I noticed (Y/N) didn't seem to be feeling well. What happened?" he asked.

"I'm not sure, but I think it's about... her... someone... she likes," I said, as I slowly said the words.

"Someone she likes?" he asked, with a curious expression on his face.

"Yeah, you probably know who it is, right?" I asked.

"I- uhm." Yep, he probably knew it.

Since (Y/N) and I were hanging out together on the outside. I sometimes noticed that Carlos was following us, which we might not have noticed, but I have noticed that since then. I was really curious if he was following her or me or both of us. So, when (Y/N) was not around or not by my side, I went to where he mostly hides, and he didn't expect that I would find him.

I don't want her to be scared of some stalker like Carlos. I asked him if he was stalking either of us, and he said maybe yes. Since I am that naughty, he admits that he likes (Y/N) since then, when his twin brother, Camilo, was helping (Y/N)'s family and they got along well in a short time. While he watched them, he felt jealousy about it and was curious about why it was like that. He didn't realize it until the days went by. He's been liking (Y/N). I tried to stop him from stalking (Y/N), but he said he would not. So, I have this deal that if I ever see him again and he is still stalking (Y/N), I will tell her about this and she will never be with him.

He is that brave and mean to everyone, like he can beat them up. When it comes to (Y/N), he's like getting weak, and he was like an innocent person begging not to kill him. And so, he begged me not to tell her because there would be a time for that to tell her and realize that Carlos liked her. Since then, he stopped stalking, but sometimes he asks me about her day or maybe her life.

You may see that we are this close together. Also, he said that I would help him by ensuring that (Y/N) would get closer to him and that he would stop stalking her so that she would not be afraid of him if she ever saw him. And I just agreed. At least (Y/N) will be comfortable some time.

"Yes, I know who it is," he agreed as he rubbed his neck.

"Good to know, but don't worry if she ever feels unwell. She will be great again soon. Anything else you need to say? I need to go see my best friend. She's been waiting for me," I said.

"Nothing else, just take care," he replied. He is that mean, but he seems to really care for (Y/N).

"We will," I said as I grinned. And then, I left and went on the outside.

When Cristina goes outside, Carlos is still standing there, thinking something. And his smirking grew as he thought about it.

Then, Carlos proceeded to follow the path where Cristina was going. And he shape-shifts into a cat.

(Y/N)'s POV:
So, I'm just sitting here on the bench outside. I just sat there and watched the night sky, the moon, and stars shine while waiting for Cristina to come. They're so pleasant to look at.

As I looked above, I heard someone's voice, and it was Cristina.

"(Y/N)! I'm here! Where are you?" she shouted.

"I'm here, sitting on the bench!" I shouted back.

"There you are, I'm coming bes!" she exclaimed and also sat by my side.

"So, what happened earlier?" I asked.

"Oh, it's just someone asking," she answered as she laughed.

"Ohh okay!" I said.

"Aren't you drinking your drink? It's not cold anymore," she asked.

"It's okay, I might get thirsty while we talk," I replied as I laughed.

"Okay then," she agreed as she laughed.

From the bushes, there was someone listening and watching.

Of course, it was Carlos pretending to be a cat.
