Better Call Saul!

I woke up laying in bed, sitting up, looking around wondering how I ended up in Lalo's room and why I was there. There were our clothes from last night scattered around the room. I couldn't remember a thing that had happened that night. I turned and looked to my side to find Lalo laying beside me. "No! We couldn't have! W-we didn't do that..." I thought to myself in disbelief. I was in more disbelief that Lalo was actually sleeping for probably the first time in a very long time. I didn't believe it. What would Gus or Mike think if he found out? No, they wouldn't find out. Even if they did find out.. God knows what they would think of me then. I got out of bed, put clothes on and went out to the living room to watch TV and try to remember if i'm thinking correctly of what had happened. "GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!" Eladio walked into the room yelling. "Jeez! Could you be any louder?" I said irritated. "Haha! Sorry. I usually say that every morning. I didn't expect you to be out here though. Where's my man Lalo?" "He's in his room." "Oh ok. Mind if I sit beside you?" "I don't care, go ahead." "Thanks. Lalo's awake i'm guessing?" "No, actually, he's sleeping. I'm shocked myself really. I never seen him sleep before." "Wait, like actually? There's no way he was actually sleeping." "He was. It's surprising, really." 

"Oh, well, you guys were wild last night, oh my god. HAHA!!" Eladio said jokingly. "I don't even remember a thing. What happened?" "I'm not sure, but damn, it was loud." "Ugh. So we did?" "I Imagine. What else would the noise be?" Eladio said chuckling a bit. "Do you think he'll remember it?" "I doubt it. But anyway, have you ate? I could make you something.." "No! It's fine. Thank you though." "Alright then. I'll be in the pool if you need me." "Alright." I said watching him walk away. A few moments after Eladio left, Lalo walked out into the room. "Lalo!" I said to him as he was coming toward me. "Oh, hey!" He said happily. He didn't seem he remembered anything. But I asked him anyway. "Do you remember anything from last night?" "We did something last night?" "I- Y-yeah? We went to the party remember?" "Oh yeah, we did. What happened after that?" "I'm not sure." I shrugged. "Well that sucks. Have you eaten yet?" Lalo asked. "No, not yet, I was actually thinking we could go out somewhere to eat?" 

"Yeah! sure, we can do that. I haven't had breakfast out in a while." Lalo said. We both got dressed and headed out the door. We eventually made it to the place, I have never been here before. It was so pretty. "I didn't mean a place like this." "Ah, come on! It's fine." Lalo said to me quietly. "Fine." we both took our seats and ordered. We were both having a nice conversation when I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket. "Que esta mal mi amor?" Lalo asked softly. "Es Mike. Me esta llamando." "Michael? Interesting. Answer it and tell me what he says." "Alright." I got up and answered the call. "Yeah?" "Varga. He got attacked." "WHAT? HOW?" I said in a surprised and defensive tone. "The enemies got him. He's been severely shot." "Oh my god! I'll be there right away!" I hung up the phone and rushed back to Lalo to inform him of what just happened. "LALO! WE NEED TO GO. NOW." "What? Why? What's going on?" "Nacho! He's been shot. and Mike isn't sure how much longer he has!" "Hmm. Doesn't seem that believable." "What do you mean it doesn't seem believable?" I asked in confusion. "Don't you find it weird that Gus and Michael have been trying to get you to go back to Albuquerque this whole time and now suddenly Nacho is injured?" "Maybe.. But what if they're telling the truth?" "That's a possibility. We could go back just in case if you want." "Yeah. I'm curious." "Alright then. Let's go." 

We both got up and left out to the car, and drove back to Albuquerque. We drove into the factory farm and saw Mike and Gus standing there waiting for us. We got out of the car and walked up to both of them. "How's Nacho? Is he alright??" I asked nervously. Lalo on the other hand wasn't falling for it. I notice from the corner of my eye watching Nacho walk out from behind the door that was behind Mike and Gus. "I'm fine." Nacho said. "Called it." Lalo said in a non surprised manner. "Damn." I said under my breath. "What's the point of this?" I asked. "We want to keep an eye on you guys. I don't feel comfortable with you being alone with Lalo." Gus said talking like he always does. "He hasn't even done anything." "You don't know that. He can turn at any moment." "I'm just gonna go." I walked back to the car and got into the passenger side feeling disappointed. Lalo got into the car as well a few moments after. "Well that was disappointing." "I know right." I said annoyed. "What do we do now?" I asked him. "We could go back to your place and figure something out." "Sure. That seems good." 

We made it to my house and Lalo walked up the doorway and opened the door for me. "After you, mi amor." "Why, thank you." I said walking inside. I sat down on the couch and turned on the TV. After a few moments Lalo sat down next to me grabbing my hand and putting it into his lap. I smiled. Not that long after, a commercial for Saul Goodman appeared on the screen. "Hey, I know who that is. Is he any good? I know a lot of criminals have him." I said. "Yeah! That's Saul Goodman. He's my lawyer." "Oh no! I better call saul!" You could hear the sound of the TV in the background during the conversation. "Would you like to meet him?" "Sure, why not." "Alright. Lemme give him a call." He took out his phone and dialed the lawyer. "Hey! Saul! I have someone who would like to meet you." "Oh, really? Show me." Saul said on the other end. "Sure. We'll come to your place!" "Wait Wha-" Lalo hung up on him before Saul could finish his sentence. "We're heading to Saul's place! Let's go!" Lalo said in excitement. "Alright then." 

We walked up to Saul's place and knocked on the door. Not that long after there was Saul. "Heyyy!" Lalo said happily, walking inside. I could tell Saul seemed nervous about him being inside his place. "This is who I wanted you to meet. Her name is Camila!" I gave him a slight bow with a smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you." Saul said. "I was thinking maybe if she ever has a legal problem you would be her lawyer?" "Yeah, sure. I can do that." "Great!" "So, Camila, if you ever need any help with anything, I'll be here to help you with your problems!" Saul said trying not to seem awkward.  "Thank you, Saul." "Of course." "Well, we should get going now. It's getting quite late. Don't you think Camila?" "Yeah." "I just wanted you to meet my Lawyer. This guy, can get you out of any situation. He just goes blah blah blah. And boom, your problem is solved." "That's good." "Yeah, it is." "Welp, let's get going. Thanks for your time Saul." "Sure.."
