017 | Are You Serious?

Pedri's hand lingered on mine, the warmth from his touch sending a jolt through me. My breath hitched, and for a second, neither of us moved. The tension between us was undeniable now, too thick to ignore. His eyes were searching mine, waiting for some kind of signal, and without thinking, I gave it to him.

I leaned in first, just slightly, but it was enough. In the blink of an eye, Pedri's hand cupped the side of my face, and his lips met mine in a soft, tentative kiss. The moments they touched, it was like everything melted away, my doubts the tension, the confusion. All I could focus on was him

The kiss deepened quickly, years of built up tension spilling out in the space between us. I gripped his shirt, pulling him closer, and he responded with an intensity I hadn't expected, his hands slid around my waist, and before I knew it, were were stumbling backward onto the bed, his body pressing against mine

It felt like everything around us had disappeared. There was no João, no beach, no trip, just Pedri and the electric charge between us that had finally broken free

But then a sound, a creak barely audible at first but unmistakable, the door swung open and Pedri and I broke apart our heads snapping toward the just in time to see Ferran standing there, his face frozen in shock

"Are you serious?" Ferrans voice was cold, but I could see the hurt lurking behind it. He was still standing in the doorway, eyes flicking between Pedri and I, his expression twisting from surprise to something darker.

Pedri pushed him self off me, standing up quickly, but he didn't say anything. The silence in the room was suffocating. I sat up, my heart racing trying to figure out what to say, but my brain was moving too slowly to catch up with the situation

"Ferran..." I started but he cut me off, his voice sharper than I'd ever heard it

"I don't even want to hear it" he spat, glaring at Pedri, his fist were clenched at his sides, and there was a flicker of something dangerous in his eyes, "you couldn't keep your hands off her huh? And Julia, and after everything you said about Pedri? How you hated him?"

Pedri took a step forward, trying to keep his voice calm " Ferran it's not like that.."

"Oh it's exactly like that" Ferran interrupted, his gaze locked on pedri "ive seen the way you've been acting, man. You couldn't stand to let me have anything to myself?"

I blinked in confusion, my mind racing to catch up, what was he talking about?

Pedri caught on, "Ferran you're not.."

"Don't" Ferran growled taking a step closer to pedri, "don't act like you care, you dont give a shit about anyone but yourself"

The room felt like it was closing in, i stood up, heart pounding, "Ferran, This isn't..."

He turned to me, eyes flashing, "you think i didnt notice either? You've been messing with the both of us, leading me on, then running off to him"

"Ferran" i start "save it" he snapped, his voice breaking silently, the hurt was all over his face now, raw and exposed, "just forget it... im done with this"

Without another word, Ferran stormed out of the room, the door slamming shut behind him, the sound echoed in silence hat followed, leaving me and pedri standing there, stunned.
