Celine's POV:
"so how'd you two meet?" My sister Lupita asked. "oh no." I groaned putting my head in my hands. I could see the smirk flood onto Timo's face.

flashback 8 months (this is going to be in no one's POV:)

Timo was walking around the grocery store picking up food to eat to stay healthy during the summer.

eggs, greens, fruits. anything.

he turned the corner to a girl practically keeled over and breathing heavily. "hey. are you okay?" Timo said worriedly. She turned around.Timo noticed bloodshot eyes, messy hair, clean face but yet still beautiful. he shook that off clearly his feelings were no match to what she was feeling. that was his assumption anyway. "i don't know if i'm okay or not." She said crying.
"what's wrong?" he asked. She laughed while sobbing, "well.." she stepped out of the way to reveal the mess on the floor, "i dropped my wine and cake." Timo couldn't help but laugh at the girl crying over the cake pieces and red stains on the floor. "it's not funny. i haven't slept in days." She wailed, "why'd i have to do it in front of a cute guy too?" Timo raised his eyebrows at her last comment, but once again shook away his emotions. "i'm sorry. i couldn't help it. here, for laughing at you i'll buy you another cake and bottle of wine." Timo suggested. "wait no. that won't be necessary." She assured, wiping the tears away from her tired eyes. "no. you wait on the bench right there and i'll get you it." he pointed at the wooden bench right next to where she were standing, "i don't take no as an answer." he said before she could reject. "could i get you name at least?" She sighed and slumped into the wall by the bench. "Timo." he smiled, "you?" "i'm Celine" he nodded and smiled brightly as he turned and walked towards the liquor section. Celine realized how cute Timo actually was once he walked away. She immediately regretted coming here like an actual bag of trash. Celine didn't expect to see a really hot dude at the local grocery store, but today was her lucky day. Timo as nice hair, a nice body, nice face. in addition, he had this beautiful voice. Soon enough Timo came back with a bottle of wine in one hand and cake in the other. "Timo!" She exclaimed eyeing up the bottle of wine. "what?" he copied her volume. "that's a $100 bottle of wine!" Celine said and covered her face. "damn i didn't think you would notice."
"what can i say? i'm a wine connoisseur. but what the fuck?" She said. "well obviously you're have a rough time so i thought i'd treat you."
"we don't know each other." She pointed from him and back to her, "we met when i was sobbing cause i dropped a $10 bottle." "hey i'm just giving a pretty girl nice wine." he put his hands up. "well i appreciate it, but i'd appreciate even more if you helped me drink this. i would feel guilty if you didn't." Celine said as she spun the bottle in her hands. It was a great excuse. Not only would it make her feel less guilty, it also gave an excuse to hang out with one handsome man.
"is that an excuse to hang out Celine?" he asked curiously.
"maybe?" She smirked. "i'd love to get to know you. let's do it." Timo smiled brightly.
apparently it was contagious cause you smiled right back.

back to present

"she was crying, right there in the middle of the grocery store." Timo smirked.

"De Verdad?" Lupita laughed in disbelief.

Celine nodded, very embarrassed.
