In The Darkness

6.commitment

It was the next day and I wake up next to him. I couldn't have been any happier. He was still sound asleep so I got up to use the bathroom. On my way to the bed room I run into his room mate.

"Oh. My apologies" I say rubbing my head.
"It's cool" he says making sure I was alright.
He was Hispanic as well. His hair was long and curly and he was so handsome. He kinda looked like Sergio.

"como te llamas pequeño". His voice was very attractive.

"I don't speak Spanish" I say soft.
"What's your name little one" he translated looking down at me.

"Royalty" I saw trying not to get flustered.
"So your my little cousin girlfriend or just another fling of his"

"Little cousin?" I say raising my eye brow.
He smiled at me, his teeth were perfect just like Sergios.

"I don't know your name" I say.
"Oh how rude of me, I'm Pedro" he shook my hand.

"So you guys are cousins"

"Yep I'm 3 years older than him"

"I see, so your a senior?
"No, I started college a year after graduating high school realeza"
"I see"
"I answered your question so...."
"I don't know what we are" I say scratching my head.
"Your to bonita not to be anyone's girlfriend amar".

Is he hitting on me? Better yet am I falling for it.
"T-thank you"
"Royalty is a pretty name, so is the meaning".
He says looking at me with the most lustful gaze ever. And I was actually getting flustered.

Sergio walks in and sees us. "Hey my love what your doing in here.

"I was going to use the bathroom but I bumped into Pedro on the way there." I say with my heart thudding and clearly out of breath a little.

"Hey Primo pequeño" Pedro say getting a beer from the fridge.

Sergio nods back.

"Don't you think it's to early for beer" I say as he pops the top.

"It's never to early darling".
I smile as he says that and Sergio notice it.

"Hey baby would you-" I interrupted him with a sneeze.

"Sorry baby what were you about to say".
"How about you come to my home
Town with me to meet my family".

Meeting his parents so early. Shit.

"Sure I would love too". He kisses my forehead softly.  

Pedro says something to Sergio In Spanish and soon they were having a whole conversation.

"Um sorry to but in but I hate being left out".
"My apologies" Pedro says while still looking at Sergio.

It was a long silence, I could tell something was off In the room but I didn't want to bother anyone.

My phone ring, it's my bestfriend and I haven't talked to her in a while.

I answer my phone and there was an knock on the door Pedro open it and I see my bestfriend.

"Oh I didn't think you'll ever be here" Jess said closing the door as she walked in.
"Right" I say not shocked to see shes been sleeping with Pedro.... Wait what if.

"Who are you here to see" I ask wanting to know.

"Both of them, these are my hook up buddies".

Pedro spits his beer out and Sergio eyes looks at me.

It was an awkward silence. Is this why Sergio didn't want me to call her the other night about me leaving? I didn't know if I needed to be mad or hurt or what but I know that I should listen first.

I look at Sergio a little hurt waiting for a responds. 

Jessica sighs.. " you really didn't think you and Sergio could have a thing did you" she laughs.

"Jessica can you shut the fuck up for one minute" I yell at her.

"How dare you talk to me that way"
"Jess your supposed to be MY bestfriend but you treat my like shit, you force me to go places then leave me there by myself to do god knows what with god knows how many men, I'm sick of putting up with your bullshit"

"It's not my fault that your a nerd and guys can't find people like you attractive".

People like me??

"What the fuck do you mean people like me?"

"Ro you know I didn't mean it like that"
"I don't know shit Jess, now say it again and I will slap the spit out of your mouth".

It was an silence in the room again.

"Ladies let's calm down ok" Pedro said trying to keep me from punching her.

"I don't need you anyways" Jess said getting ready to leave.

"I never needed you" I say flipping her off.
She slammed the door behind her.
My hand was shaking in anticipation.
"Can I explain ro"? Sergio says bending down on one knee.

How could I say no to that perfect little accent of his.

"Ok" tears of anger stream down my face.
"I haven't been with her since us baby I promise, what she said is true tho but she wasn't anything serious baby"

I looked in his eyes and it looked like he wanted me to believe him ,like he was telling the truth.

"I believe you I'm not mad at you I'm mad at her, she was supposed to be my best friend" Sergio hugs me tightly like he didn't ever want to let go.

"It's going to be ok, I'm sure she's gonna realize how important you are to her". Sergio word's comfort me.

"Yea I'm sure she is" Pedro add in.
"Thank you" I chuckled.

"Baby we're leaving tomorrow so you should go pack up ok".

He bends down to give me a kiss. I kiss him back and it felt so good I didn't want to stop. 

I pull away looking into his eyes. He was so handsome. 

I go in Sergio room to grab my things then I leave going back to my dorm to get ready.
"Hey ro" my roommate said as she was cleaning everything and throwing stuff out.
"Hey leria I'm sorry I left you to do all this stuff i know I've been a horrible friend".
"No no no it's fine you know how much I enjoy cleaning plus you got to be with him"

"Thank you leria" I smile big.
"Your smile isn't so bright what's wrong" she ask tilting her head.
"Me and Jess were arguing"
"About"
"She came to Sergio dorm and turns out she's been sleeping with both of them and one thing just lead to another, I'm pretty sure we aren't bestfriends anymore". I said "who is both of them??? I know Sergio but who's the other guy?" She questioned. "Sergio's cousin... Pedro" I said. She nodded

"Well im sorry to say this but im glad you guys aren't, she treated you like shit"

"I know but I just thought I needed her in my life"
"You don't need no one but your self remember that"

Me and aleria hug tightly.
"Thank you"
"Anytime".
I suddenly remember I had to use the bathroom.
