Crazy Over You

📚 Chapter 30 📚

"It's fine." Valentina assures me while I'm pacing around.

"Is it?" I question as I finally look at her.

She's over once again. She brought Eros sweater that he has forgotten at her place when he went over. I found it weird since Eros is not the type to forget his things due to not wanting to give a reason to socialize, but when Mom let her in, Vale found out that Eros is still sleeping. She left the jacket on his bed and the fact that she can go in and out of his room without much worry impresses me.

On her way out, she saw me pacing and we started to talk.

"Dennis and James' friendship is strong. Dennis is not really going to kill him. Plus, Ken is with them." Vale mentions.

"Ken?" I don't think Denny has any friends with that name but then I remember that my brothers aren't the only ones who are back in town. "Oh, Rhys?" I ask, hoping we're talking about the same people.

"The guy is an expensive Ken doll look-a-like. God, he's dreamy." Vale gushes over my brother's best friend. "I made friends with the wrong brother." I couldn't help but laugh. It did start to calm down from the situation. "Don't get me wrong, Eros is alright but Dennis? My god. I know siblings in friendship are off limits, especially since he's Alora's brother. Yet whenever I ask her about him, she rolls her eyes and tells me to not even think about it. But Rhys is Dennis friends and you're Dennis sister which means you may know if Rhys is single and maybe into--"

"Into you?" Vale and I both jump at the sudden question due to the voice being deep and out of nowhere.

I look over and notice Eros is wearing nothing but sweatpants, however, he was holding a sweater which I believe is the one Valentina brought back. My brother puts on the sweater since it is a little chilly.

"Okay, first," Vale raise her index finger, "buenos dia." Eros groan in response. "Second, what's wrong with me?" She looks ready to sass him. Even her accent is showing but Eros just drops on the singular couch.

"You're too loud." Eros mentions, still looking half asleep with his bed hair going in all directions. "The only time a man likes their women loud is in the bedroom. You might as well just be my alarm clock."

Vale stands up. Eros fully wakes up right there and then. He starts to run with Vale right behind with murder in mind.

Déjà-vu.

I check my phone and send James another message asking him if he's still alive.

Last night, I was able to sneak him out, but this morning I found out that Denny and James are going to the ice rink together with Rhys who's back in town with his sister for Christmas with their family. Denny promised to not kill him but that doesn't mean he's not going to hurt him.

I know they're going to play hockey but that's how Denny lets off some steam. Well, my brother also does it by going to the gym or in the boxing ring.

Please, let them be okay...

Vale comes back while mumbling Spanish words. I take this time to take her in. She's a tad shorter than I am. Her hair for the day is down and her curls are very noticeable. She's wearing tight jeans that are hugging her curves. She has hips, the thighs and a great ass. She also wearing an off shoulder shirt. Her usual hoop earrings. 

"You're Spanish." I recall.

"Yes, you just noticed? After all these years?" Vale smiles at me, placing her hands on her hips.

"No, it just reminded me... Hey, what does conrazon mio mean?" It couldn't have sounded to bad, right? I mean, in my head, it's perfect but by her reaction, it's not.
