Ceuta, Mexico
The grey bus came up to a stop as everyone started to get out of the bus. Alana stepped out of the bus and looked around. Miguel put his arm around her waist as he got beside his girlfriend. The couple looked at each other and smiled. Hands locked together they walked away from the bus. Alana smiled at the people who walked past the couple, Miguel sighing at the sight of his phone.
"Hey, do you have any service?" Miguel turned to see his girlfriend who was smiling as she looked around. Alana turned to him before pulling out her phone. She sighed, "Nope." She said before putting it back in her pocket. Suddenly a man's voice caught their attention.
Miguel slowly put Alana behind him, her hands latched onto his arm. She didn't have a good feeling about these guys. "Oi! You need some help, mates?" The blond man asked. Alana sighed when she felt Miguel move a little closer. "Uh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, we'd love some help. uh, my phones out of service." Miguel said as Alana kept her hands on Miguel's arm and looked at the other men behind the table.
She had a feeling what was gonna happen, good thing she put her wallet in her bra. "Uh, do you think you could help us get to 137 Avenue Santurce?" Miguel asked as he placed his own bag on the floor. Alana looked down before seeing the other older men walk forward. "Oh! you're in luck. i can show ya." The blond man smiled, "Mig.." Alana muttered making the boy glance at her before turning to the man.
"Thank you, guys." Miguel said before pulling Alana closer to him, feeling her tense body. Miguel didn't think anything was going to happen, but if something did, Alana would be his main priority. "All right. It is right here. X marks the spot." The man said as he wrote on a map. Alana glanced at the other two men who were walking around the couple, her slowly getting closer to her boyfriend. Miguel felt this and tightened his grip on her waist. "Awesome. Perfect. Thank you, guys." Miguel said as the blond man folded the map, "No worries. Not easy to find your way around here." He said.
Alana wanted this to be done so she quickly walked in front of Miguel, her backpack against his chest so it was unable to get from her. "Right, thanks so much, we'll take that now." Alana said as she reached to grab the map when the man suddenly stopped her by pulling it away from her. "Actually, you don't mind giving me some pesos, do you?" He asked, Alana tilted her head, "Just 'cause it's my map and all." He said. Miguel put his hand on her waist and he nodded, "Yeah, yeah. H-How many?" He asked as he reached for his wallet.
"Oh, well, five bucks sound fair?" He asked, Miguel smiled, "Yeah, that sounds more than fair." He said as Alana took a deep breath, "Great.." she muttered, slowly looking at the shirtless man on her left side. Him staring her up and down, resulting in the girl to take a step closer to Miguel.
Miguel gave the blond man the money, "All right. There you go." Alana said as she grabbed the map and grabbed Miguel's hand. "Thanks, beautiful lady. And, how much you wanna pay for the bag?" The man asked as Miguel's smile dropped, "The bag?" He asked. They looked to see a man holding Miguel's backpack in his hand.
