One Year Later
"Are you sure about this?"
I turn to Alejandro on my side
"It's about time" I spoke low and soft
I've been hiding from everyone I know
And I know that ain't fair on anyone
As the doors open the whole place comes to a stand still
Some strangers
Some bosses
And most importantly Leonardo
And I can feel the same heart beat skip
Slowly my feet take a few steps inside
I head over to Mia and Mandy
"Looking good mama" Mandy smiles
"Do I?"
I didn't feel any different
Apart from life being different
"Glowing" Mia said
I can't help but feel emotional
It's like listening to the most important people telling you how proud they are of you
They were—
They are my rocks
And I honestly can't give them enough for have grateful I am
"I love you both"
Wrapping an arm around both of them I feel their arms wrap around me
And we all laugh
I look over and Leo before turning my gaze to Mandy and Mia
"You be alright if I go talk to him?" I question
They both nod and we all pull back from the hug
I take a deep breath and head over slowly
I can already see Hudson and Gio watching
"Woah" Leo kinda huffs
But not in a bad way
"What?" I ask
"Well I'm either dead and in heaven, or you are looking better then ever"
"Maybe I just glow differently when I'm in your presence"
He gently pulled me in by my waist and I can't help but giggle like I'm in a high school relationship
As I look up I can see Leo's eyes flickering between my eyes and lips
"So how have you been—"
"Leo"
He looks back up at my eyes
"Hmm?" He hums
"Just shut up and kiss me"
Feeling his lips press against mine I can hear Gio and Hudson purposely whistling
And I feel at home
I am at home with this crazy bunch
