I could see the bonfire from the moment I stepped out of the house, I could even hear music as well, we went through the kitchen back door, the same door I had gone through when I was hoping to get fresher air and stumbled upon a scene I should not have.

Giulia was eagerly and happily dragging me down the path that led to the beach, how exited was she to be going to just a beach get together?, she was making it seem like it would be a concert down there.

At least she let me dress comfortably in my sweats, I may or may not look like a hobo but I did not care, I was not trying to impress anyone, anyway so it did not mate, but Giulia own form of comfort was wearing a skimpy red dress even in the cold weather of the night, even her face was game on.

When we finally got to the beach, I immediately regretted my choice of clothes, turns out I actually cared, it was in no way a simple get together or even the regular bonfire at least it was not like the only one I had attended in high school that Hailey made me go to, seems like people are always trying to make me do things, at the least they were not necessary bad things, push over!, my mind screamed.

The bonfire I attended in high-school was a bit wild but everyone looked comfortable and not overly dressed like the people I was currently staring at, some of the girls were even wearing heels, who wears heels in sands for crying out loud, I looked down at Giulia's feet and she was putting on a wedge, that seems reasonable at least.

"Thank goodness you made it, Alessandro and I were already planning to go fetch the two of you" Matteo said as he walked up to us, I noticed Alessandro few feet away from where we stood, he was locking lips with a girl that had bright red hair, so much for the both of them planning to come fetch us.

"Sandro looks busy to me" Giulia blankly stated as her eyes were also on Alessandro, Matteo spared his brother a glance before turning back to face us.

Matteo lets out a weird chuckle as he rubbed the back of his neck, it gesture showing that he was a bit embarrassed, I did not think hot guys ever gets embarrassed at anything "Well..., after he had ended his session" he responded.

"And when was that going to happen, I do not think he is planning on stopping anytime soon" Giulia said and she was right, the lip locking had already turned into exploring of body parts, Matteo turned his back again

"Fuck!" He cursed lowly "Well then it is good you guys came by yourself then. Emily how are you doing?, are you enjoying Italy ?"

"I am good, I think so" I swiftly responded, he smiles, his eyes lits up as he smiled making him look even extra attractive, I kind of understand what Giulia sees in him, he was extremely good looking, and he seemed to be the responsible one out of the two brothers and one thing Giulia secretly likes was a man that can handle responsibility.

"Come on, let's get you both a drink" he nudged and he led us through the small crowd and it was official, I was the odd one out of all the girls but if I was a boy, I would have blended on perfectly, maybe, just maybe, they might mistake me for a boy, yeah!, a boy with long hair and a feminine facial features, my brain mocked.

The aisle of drink was close to the disc jockey stand, who even hires a disc jockey for a bonfire, this was definitely not a bonfire, this was a full blown party disguised as a bonfire, only they did put up a real fire at the center of the crowd.

"Here" Matteo handed me a plastic cup with contents in it snapping me out of my train of thoughts. I took a sip and my face immediately morphed into disgust, Matteo chuckles
