IT WAS THE WEEKEND of thanksgiving and i came home to grab more clothes. the real holiday was yesterday, we all went out for drinks and it was fun. nathan and milo were gonna meet us here in an hour. a weekend in the upper east was definitely more then just a weekend. to me, it's all about fashion, expensive cars, homes, conversations with rich people.

i had my best clothes, i just didn't KNOW what to wear.

"leah!" i shout.

leah comes skipping in my room and plops on my bed as i come out of my closet.

"i'm aware of what we should take, but we're a different age now. what did you take for clothes?" i asked.

"i don't know something slutty, classy, pjs, heels" she says. "slutty" she thought.

"okay" i spoke. "dress code: slutty" i sarcastically noted.

"don't worry rose, she told me the same thing" jimy popped in, with a dress in her hand.

"hopefully my dad isn't there" jimena said.

"oh yeah, what if he is there?" leah says.

"well i guess i'd have to introduce him to nathan. which is not on my bingo card by the way" she says.

"yeah, my mom would of told me she was coming but, her meeting milo would not be on my card either. atleast not yet!" i giggled.

"i told sebastian where we were going this weekend and he wished he was here. but he says he's having fun filming" she smiled.

"he's coming back before spain right?" jimena asks.

"yeah, in january" she says.

"what about milo rose?" leah asks.

i always avoided this question because i haven't even told him about it.

"i don't know" i quietly say. "he's gonna be over there but the crazy part is i haven't even told him" i let out.

"what?!" they both say.

"what are you waiting for?" leah exclaimed.

"i don't know! i'll tell him this weekend. conversation is dead" i state.

"brighten up rose, you better tell him before it's too late" leah comments. "if anything, he might even extend his stay. just a thought" she sighed.

"yeah we'll see what happens" i shrugged.

"okay, be ready in an hour"

WE WALKED THROUGH the lobby where nathan and milo were waiting. they got up and followed us outside where our uber was waiting. it took us a while, but we fit all our bags in the car. leah had took more than one bag which made no sense when she had more clothes at the house.

throughout the whole ride, they talked about what they plan on doing the weekend there. it was funny hearing all their stories, but i was thinking about how he hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend yet. we've known each other for 4 months and would like not wait any longer.

WE STOPPED INFRONT of the holton's resident and i gazed at the beautiful house. it's a white brick house, with a black door and black windows. the trees around it made the house more beautiful. i've always forget how beautiful this house is.

"i feel like i've seen this house before. like, pass by it all the time" milo says.

"it's much more pretty on the inside" i reply to him.

i had my bag in my hands when milo grabs it and hold its for me. i give him a kiss on the cheek as we followed leah into the house. decoration was the same, i remember it from when we were little kids.

"where's my father?" leah says, roaming around.

"kids! welcome home" mr.holton appeared, coming down the stairs.

leah squealed like ken from barbie, as she seen her father and gave him the biggest hug. leah was always a daddy's girl, so seeing him after 4 months was endless.

"the man looks like he would be a famous actor" milo whispered.

"right? i've always said this" i whisper.

"rose, jimy, how are you girls?" mr.holton says, looking our direction.

me and jimena went up to him and gave him a big hug too. he was like our father too, so it was exciting to see him.

"i assume these are the boys that you ladies are seeing? big shots eh?" he laughed.

ha.

the guys introduced themselves and he talked about what was going on in the weekend. he then let us go to our rooms, and milo would be staying with me. i wanted to talk to him about the trip and i didn't really know how to word it.

"so, how long are you staying over board again?" i began.

"till february 16" he reminded.

"oh..." i say. "i haven't told you this & i should of a long time ago really" i chuckled.

"what's wrong?" he says.

"no nothing" i reply, turning towards the closet. "in february, me and the girls are going to madrid for a choir competition and we're staying a week"

"leah, being leah. she asked mr.garcia if we were able to bring company, because we're singing 3 days and the rest is ours to explore. lee is bringing sebastian and jimena is bringing nate" i continued.

"why didn't you tell me anything before?" he spoke up.

"i don't know, with you going over there already, i don't think you'd wanna extend your trip more. you just have a lot on your plate, never had the time to tell you" i explained.

he sighed in disappointment, and sat on the bed facing me. he already told me before to never let his career or anything of his affect my life.
