Catalina reached the car as Andrew's security guard opened it for her. "Gracias Javier," She smiled as he responded "Un placer Señorita Sanchez," 

She smiled before getting in the back seat with Andrew. "Hey!"

"Hi," She hugged him as Javier got in the driver's seat."You look beautiful," Andrew said as he noticed the girl wearing a short black dress, with her hair flowing around and her iconic red lips. "Thanks! You too," She blushed as she waited for Javier to start driving.

"I called you,"

"Yeah, sorry I didn't answer. I was in the middle of the photo shoot," Andrew said as she nodded. "How was it?"

"Boring, but it's okay... Now that I get to be with you," Andrew kissed her cheek as she giggled. "What did you do all day?"

"I cooked and just hung out with everyone," She shrugged as he responded "Was Chris there?"

"What? Of course, he was, he is Olivia's best friend and neighbor," She laughed as he nodded, she could tell he was still annoyed. 

"Oh... So all your time in LA you are gonna be spending with your ex?" 

"No... I am gonna be spending it with my friends," She said frustrated, she didn't expect him to be this jealous. "Look, I am not jealous Lina,"

It's like he could read her mind.
"But- you have to understand me,"

"I am sorry... I understand. I wouldn't be excited either if you spent a whole month with your ex," She looked out the window noticing a crazy amount of people right outside of the restaurant they were going to. 

"What is going on Javier?" Catalina asked as she turned to Andrew. Who didn't seem as weirded out, and was fixing his hair. "I have no idea Señorita Sanchez,"

"What is going on Andrew?" She fixed her question. 
"I might have alerted the press..." 

"You did what?"

"My team said I needed more buzz before my new tour," Andrew shrugged as Catalina responded with "And you didn't tell me?" The security guard, Javier sucked in some air, causing both of them to turn to him. 

"What?" He asked both of them to react that way. "You should have told me! I don't wanna go public with our relationship yet," She slumped back into the car. 

"What? Why?" 

"I don't want people speculating on us," Catalina sighed as he rolled his eyes. "It's fine people are not gonna put two and two together," 

"Are you stupid Andrew?" Catalina let the words slip out as his expression turned hurt but then angrier. "What?"

"There are already thousands of rumors involving us. They will obviously know," She wasn't taking back what she said. She was mad. 

"You are overreacting," 

"Javier, regresate para la casa de Olivia. Y si no te causa problema puedes asegurarte que nadie nos este persiguiendo," She leaned forward and spoke as Andrew moth fell agape. 

"What did you tell him?" He asked as he noticed the car. "She told me to take her back," Javier responded as Catalina chuckled. 

"Why did you tell him?"

"I work for him Señorita," She looked out the window and responded with "I know, Sorry,"

"Is this seriously how you are reacting?" Andrew tapped her shoulder as she turned. "Yes, I am not comfortable with this stupid thing you and your team are pulling," 

"You are acting so ridiculous," 

"Last I remembered Andrew, we were keeping everything private," She argued. 

"Was it private when I went to almost all of your U.S. concerts?"

"Andrew! You told me you wanted to come. And I didn't do anything for publicity," 

"So publicity is good for you? But is bad for me?"

They remained quiet as they drove back to the apartment, of course taking the long way to make sure no one was following them.

"Is our relationship just publicity for you?" She turned around as he was on his phone. "Of course not," 

"We are here Señorita," Javier said as she noticed it. 

"You can come in. We can talk about it," Catalina said as Javier was about to get out to open her door. "Javier quedate, no me tenes que abrir la puerta, pero gracias,"

"I still have to make appearances," He said as he rechecked his hair on his phone. "Are you going to lunch alone?" 

"No... Gonna call up some old friends," He nodded as did she. 

"Have fun,"

She got out of the car, closing the door lightly before walking to Olivia's apartment.

Catalina opened the door to the apartment, surprised that the rumor was true. She always had her door unlocked. 

"Catalina?" Nick asked as she saw everyone playing Monopoly at the dinner table. Of course, they were playing with partners because there were so many players. 

"You are back too soon," Milo said as she nodded before noticing that her best friend was also there.

"What are you doing here?"

"Nick and Olivia called me," He responded as she sat next to him.

"Is everything okay?" Chris asked as she turned to him.
Tears finally flowed as she looked down.
It's just been a long couple of days, and everything is crashing down now.
