Nico and Alicia spent most of the night staplwd together watching old movies. From The Lion king to The Princess and the frog before he drifted off to sleep. She didnt mind him falling asleep as she understood how high maitenence his career can be and judging by todays training sesh. He had been working really hard.

Thats one thing she favoured about her brother was his hardwork. He could be given any task and complete it to full standards, inspirational. It showed charisma. Football had always been his dream and she knew, even as a kid, he wouldnt allow anything get in his way.

After the ending of The Princess and the frog Alicia wiped her tears and opted for a calm show to play that she didnt need much focus for. Modern family was one of her favourites but she was struggling to keep her eyes open. Nicos light snores were making her feel drowsy and she soon covered him with a nearby blanket and turned on the side lamp for him.

Heading towards her bedroom she tied her hair into a loose bun before prepping for a shower. It was lengthy and very theraputic for her as she used the time to realign her scrambled thoughts before focusing on her evening skincare. Alicia always took time on her skin as she preffered enhancing her natural beauty than relying on the beauty she could add with makeup. But while washing her face in the mirror, thoughts raced around her head.

if Maria had figured out her small liking to Lamine that quickly.
What could Alex possibly be thinking?

Alicia liked Alex, she was kind. But there was something about her that made her feel enadequate. Everyone is beautiful in their own way but to surround yourself with someone who gets an unbearable amount of attention based solely on their looks. Its bound to create some new insecurities. It didnt help that Alex looked completely opposite to her. Something inside her believed Lamine mustve liked her at some point, enough to kiss her atleast. But him moving on with someone who looks the polar opposite made her question if any of it was real.

Eventually placing these thoughts on hold, she plugged her phone in, covered herself in her blanket and awaited the new day.

---

Waking up, usually one of Alicias favourite things to do. The opportunity of a new day is taken for granted so Alicia prioritised romamticising life in the mornings. Jazz music, watching her favourite influencers, all paired with an ice cold bottle of water and it was a guarunteed good day.

This morning was anything but.

It was no longer morning, Alicias trustee 7:30 alarm had been silenced and it was now 1:45. Instead of waking up to the sound of jazz music it was Nicos brazillian funk, that he always badly danced to, all paired with male voices.

What is going on? She thought to herself.

Stepping out of bed she slipped her havaianas on, they felt like Rio  and it tugged on her heart strings. If Alicia didnt have a structured morning her bubbly personality trait was no longer valid. Pacing towards her bedroom door she took a quick peak knowing it was probably the normal group of boys over but she couldnt be bothered will all the 'how was Brazil?' questions. Luckily for her they were all out on the balcony, terrorising the neighbours with their poor music choices.

Letting out a large deep breath she worked up the courage to enter the kitchen as quietly as she could hoping a coffee would calm her agitation. She sighed, noticing the mess of plates Nico had left on the kitchen sides before the coffee machine dinged and  her first moment of joy was available.

Wanting to avoid any conversation with anyone she sped off back into the direction of her bedroom. Phone in one hand, scrolling through her instagram home feed with her coffee in her other hand. Nico had told her many times, to focus on her surroundings. He always teased her for being careless and 'non self aware' but she begged to differ. 'Oh my Go-' She whispered into a wince towards herself as her coffee spilt over her and someone else who was visibly in a rush.

'Fuck..' The voice spoke. It was low and somewhat sultry. There he stood, tall, cap worn backwards in an navy outfit that she took a few milliseconds to process. 'Lamine? Im so sorry Are you okay?" She spoke fast, watching as he lifted his tee away from his body so the heat wouldnt scold his skin. "Alicia Im fine. Its okay" He spoke reassuringly after noticing her concerned tone but regardless, she was still worried. 'Come on' She exclaimed, placing her cup back down on the kitchen side as he questioned her statement. 'I said come on' Alicia reiterated, tilting  her head towards the left for him to speed himself up unless he wanted to burn.

Heading into Nicos bedroom she rummaged his draws for a plain white vest that he wouldnt notice if it went missing before making her way into the bathroom. There he stood, t shirt halfway off his body as he pulled it over his body. She ignored whatever thoughts lingered and cut the seeping tension with the sound of the tap running as she dampened it for him to use.

'There...' She said, throwing him the towel before placing the tee on the bathroom counter top. 'Gracias..' He replied politely before placing the shirt on. Alicia stood back in the doorway, trying her hardest not to stare but her breathing sped ever so slightly. Afterwards, he swiftly fixed his cap in the mirror before smiling childishly at Alicia.

'Whats so funny?' Alicia questioned, entering defense mode. Lamime knew how to wind her up so easily and the silence betweem the two was deathening. 'You' He replied sharply watching as he eyebrpws furrowed at his very comment. 'Me?' She scoffed, stepping forward as she pointed towards herself.
'You really need to watch where your going' He suggested, folding the wet towel up and placing it on the radiator as she rolled her eyes with frustration, 'Oh I need to watch where im going? She laughed, shaking her head as she knew exactly what he was doing.

It was a sweet moment, when they were alone they could be 100% themselves. It was when they were surrounded by others that they didnt know how to act. There was still underlying tension between them but Alicia heavily respected Lamines current relationship.

As much as she could.

'Lamine Yamal! Cada dia tiquero mas!' Nico walked in chanting. Interupting their moment and making her heart drop a little as they were thrown back into reality. Grabbong onto his wrist he allowed her to fling him around and out of the bathroom before shutting the door quietly behind him.

'Is Alicia still not awake yet?' Nico questioned, taking no notice into Lamine who had just been shoved out of the bathroom. 'Shes so lazy' Nico scoffed, grabbing Lamine from the shoulders and leading him down the hallway. 'No i havent seen her' Lamine explained, his eyes travelling to her abandoned coffee cup before he heard the click of the bathroom door and she came tip toeing out wondering..

Why he had just lied?
