One of the bodyguards opened the door for us, the bodyguards were changed except for the head of each team and the overall head, we were about to board the SUV.

“Where are you girls going?” Aiden and the boys scanned the new faces. “They’ve been changed?”

“Yes.” I muttered, it's going to be hard shutting their mouths. Well, everything can be changed.

“What did you girls do?” Edward sighed sitting on the hood of his car.

“Nothing… much.” I stuttered when I remembered the real reason why they got changed. They raised their eyebrows not buying what I said.

“You can say it’s the whole Blanca issue and they found out about Travis. It didn’t end well at all.” Linda spilled hugging me by my neck.

When Uncle said I almost go raped, something in me broke. I've been avoiding that word, I know but I did not want to think about what happened that day I just wanted to view it as, I was physically abused.

“Are you okay?” Gio's gaze was tender maybe he's concerned as a friend.

“Yeah.” I plastered a fake smile, he stretched forth his hand to me, okay? Now I’m confused, I looked at the boys maybe they can tell me what's going on but I only got smirks in return. I placed my hand on his and he drew me closer to him, he is sitting beside Edward.

He took my hands using his thumps to rub my knuckles before placing a kiss on it. Okaaay? He cupped my face placing a hand on my waist bringing me between his legs.

“Pretty sure things will go haywire if no one was here.” Edward teased patting his shoulder the way boys do before hopping off the hood. “Let’s go Casanova. Bella you're riding with me.”

What Edward said brought Gio back to his senses, he was shocked with our current position and he abruptly pushed me. “Aaah!” Fudge my butt hurts. “Don’t!” I stopped the guards from taking action.
“What got into you!” I glared daggers at him. “Thanks.” Ali helped me off the floor.

“Don’t you see you're ruining things?” Aiden scolded shaking his head. “This push and pull will ruin what hasn’t started yet.”

“Fix it.” Andrés advised before driving away with Lia in his car.

“I don't know what's going on with you Gio but what you did isn't acceptable and will not be tolerated by any of us next time.” Linda overprotective mode went off.

Ali helped me board the SUV. “Sorry you have to ride alone sis.” I gave her a small smile before she shut the door. “Let’s go.”

When we got to the school's out gate Andrés and Gio's car were there maybe they're waiting for us. A horn went off behind my car and it was Aiden's, guessing that was the signal we needed we drove off.

This time we took the normal route which will take time and not passing through different shortcuts. “Please drive to the nearest mall.” I don't feel good all of sudden I need something to lighten my mood. “Please make it quick.” He increased his speed changing lanes driving past the boys, I turned my head to the side when we drove past Gio. I don't know why but all this as to stop, how do I stop what I know nothing of?

My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job, didn't see what's going on
But now I know, I'm better sleeping on my own

… 'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh baby, you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
