Siempre te voy a querer

Chapter 49

As the night progressed, Edson, Luis, and Gerardo became increasingly tipsy. Isa and Kevin found themselves stepping in to take care of them.

"Vamos, chicos, es hora de relajarse," Kevin said, trying to keep things under control.

Edson, swaying slightly, leaned closer to Isa. "Isa, siempre he pensado que eres una persona increíble," he slurred, his eyes half-closed. Isa chuckled and gently pushed him back into his seat.

Luis, not wanting to be left out, added, "Sí, Isa, deberías ser modelo. Eres hermosa."

Isa laughed again, patting Luis's shoulder. "Gracias, chicos, pero ustedes necesitan descansar un poco."

Gerardo, with a dazed smile, chimed in, "Isa, ¿alguna vez has considerado salir conmigo? Solo digo."

Isa's cheeks turned slightly pink, but she handled it with grace. "Gera, eres un amor, pero sabes que yo le soy fiel a Santi," she said, glancing over at Santiago, who was talking to the bargirl.

Edson, who was sitting, watched the scene with serious expressions. Edson's frown deepened as he heard his teammates flirt with Isa.

"Isa, vente," Santiago finally said, gesturing for her to come closer.

Isa walked over and sat next to Santi. "No te preocupes, Santi. Solo están siendo amigables." She spoke.

"Amigables o no, no me gusta," Santi muttered, still clearly bothered.

Kevin noticed the tension and decided to change the subject. "Oigan, ¿quién quiere cantar una canción? ¡Una ronda de karaoke!"

The suggestion distracted the guys momentarily, and they started arguing over who would sing first. Isa and Kevin took this opportunity to make sure everyone was okay.

"Vamos, chicos, es hora de irnos," Kevin said, helping Luis to his feet.

Isa supported Gerardo, who was still trying to flirt with her. "Isa, no me dejes caer," he said dramatically.

"No te dejaré caer, Gera. Vámonos," she reassured him.

With everyone finally on their feet, Isa and Kevin managed to get the guys to the car. As they settled in, Santi and Edson continued to keep an eye on Isa, ensuring she was okay.

"Isa, gracias por cuidarnos," Santi said softly, leaning his head on her shoulder.

"Siempre, Santi," Isa replied, wrapping an arm around him. "Siempre."

Isa was driving Santiago's car, keeping her eyes on the road while Kevin sat in the back, trying to manage the tipsy group.

"Isa, pon música," Edson spoke up from the back seat.

"Claro," Isa said, handing him her phone. Edson scrolled through her playlist and selected "La Bebe Remix" by Peso Pluma and Yng Lvcas.

As the music started playing, the car filled with the sound of the guys singing along. Gerardo, particularly, seemed to get into the song, often looking at Isa while singing the lyrics, "Ven, trépate encima 'e mi. Manda la ubi', pasó por ti."

They were all having fun, singing loudly and somewhat off-key. Kevin, however, was struggling in the back with Luis and Gerardo leaning on him.

"Isa, ya no puedo con Luis y Gera," Kevin said, sounding exasperated.

Isa laughed and pulled the car over to the side of the road. "Está bien, Kevin. Ven, pasa al frente," she said.

Kevin quickly got out of the car and moved to the passenger seat, smiling at Isa as he settled in. He handed her some snacks. "Aquí tienes, para que no te aburras mientras manejas," he said.
