Aurora

Chapter 17

                          Aurora

Alex wasn't wrong. He actually called me right at 6:30am in the morning just to see how yesterday went, which I told him and he was in awe. He believes Hu and I like each other, we're just great friends.

After our call I fell back to sleep. I felt like sleeping in today. It was Saturday and I was happy I wouldn't be missing school.

I feel someone poking me from the side. I turn the other way in hopes of the person to stop poking me, but they didn't. I frown and open my eyes to see Marco and Andres.

I keep my head down on the pillow and cover over me. "Yes boys?" I ask.

"We're bored. Wanna go do something today?" They both ask together, there eyes widened and they laugh. I giggle.

"Y'all sure y'all ain't the twins?" I ask, Marco rolls his eyes but nods. "I could never be twins with this idiot."

Andres gasps and slaps Marcos shoulder. I frown and Andres says a quick sorry to Marco.

"Wake me up in an hour I want sleepp." Andres pulls the cover off of me.

"Nope get dressed and meet us downstairs, Antonio is driving us!"
Marco yells walking out of my room.

He didn't need to yell. But Antonio was coming? I suddenly felt the urge to get up and actually get dressed into something good.

I get up from bed and run to the bathroom to take a quick shower. I step out and dry my hair along with wrapping a white fluffy towel around my body. I make my way over to my closet to look for an outfit.

I put on a black long sleeve with a white/black plaid skirt. It was getting a little chilly outside, it's the beginning of November. I grab my favorite pair of converse and put them on. They were the regular pair the black and white.

I walk over to the mirror in my bathroom and pick up the curler making sure it was hot enough, I smile and curl my hair. When I'm done I unplug the curler and I place it on my bed so it wouldn't be so hot when I put it up.

I grab my purse and phone then head downstairs following where the voices are coming from.

"Good morning everyone!" I said with a smile. They all look at me and smile. Carlos, Mateo, and Antonio looking at me emotion less. Mom was the first to come up to me and kiss my cheek, while Rafael kissed my head after but saying good morning.

"So where are we going?" I ask. Andres laughs a little and rubs the back of his neck.

"Yeah about that...I was just trying to get you to wake up because I was bored. But then you took to long." He admits and I frown, but cover it up with a smile.

"That's okay Andres." He smiles at me and nods.

"The boys are going with your father and Pedro. They have to do some things." Mom says.

"Oh okay, when will y'all be back?" I ask no one I particular.

"Around 10 my love." I frown.

"It's okay I understand." I turn my attention to Antonio, he was already looking at me which made me blush. He smirks and winks at me before looking away. I look down at my shoes so no one would see me blushing but it's kind of hard when you have a bunch of brothers.

"No no Princessa don't cry, I promise tomorrow we can do something." Pedro says. I look up at them confused, my cheeks still bright red.

Andres raises an eyes brow but doesn't say anything.

"A-Actually I was wondering if Hu and Alexander could come over today." I bit my lip nervously, my eyes meeting Antonio's. His eyes go down to my lips before looking back to my eyes.

"Who's Alexander?" Pedro and Carlos ask.

"My friend, I met him in art class he's really funny and nice." I say looking down at my hands fidgeting with one another.

"He's gay." Andres whispers to the boys. I look up at them.

"Fine he can come, mother will also be here." I smile and hug Pedro and Carlos, then hug Rafael.

"Thank you all!" Rafael and Pedro hugs me back while Carlos just stands there. I pull away from them and quickly make my way upstairs before giving my other brothers a hug along with Antonio. I run into my room and pull out my phone from my purse but freeze once I see something on my bed.

Daisies.

They laid there on my bed with a bow wrapped around them and a note next to them. I walk over to them and slowly pick up the note while admiring the beautiful flowers. I look at the note.

"Beautiful flowers for my beautiful angel."

My eyes widened but so did my smile. He bought me flowers?! He remembered I liked Daisies?! I felt over the moon excited.

I completely forgot about calling the boys. I run downstairs with the flowers in my hand and run to mom who was in the kitchen talking to one of the lovely ladies who made us dinner last night.

"Mom!" I say with excitement in my voice, flowers in my hands.

"Yes Miel?" She says turning to me. Her hair was a little crazy but laid back in a low messy bun. Flour covered her hands and forehead a little on her cheek, I giggle at her appearance. She looks adorable.

(Honey.)

"Quién te compró esas flores, cariño?" She asks. I smile at the thought of Antonio. She smiles down at me with a knowing look.

(Who got you those flowers honey?)

"Era un chico, verdad?" She asks. My cheeks turning bright red as I slowly nod my head.

(It was a boy wasn't it?)

"Sí" She turns around and walks to a cabinet, opens it and grabs something. She walks over to me and hands me a beautiful clear vase with flowers covering it.

She feels up the vase with water and I place my flowers in it. Mom hands me the vase and I make my way back upstairs.

I place the vase on my desk near the window, the sun beaming on them a little which made them pop put. I walk to my bed and lay down on it with a huge smile on my face, and only one thing on my mind.

No one person on my mind.

Antonio.
