"What are you guys doing!" The boys got startled at mom's voice and immediately got up from each other and looked at her awkwardly. They were both looking awful with bruises and blood all over their faces.

Gosh, this is so awkward . .

Just then mom noticed my ex boyfriends face and gasped. "Luke? What are you doing here?!" She was really angry at him as Jorge let out a small laugh. No wonder she was angry because imagine being in her position having your daughter's ex boyfriend that caused her so much pain, only three feet in front of you – in your house – beating up a random boy in the living room whom you don't know anything about.

"Both of you, out from of house! Now!" She yelled at them, as the boys quickly made their way out. I sighed in relief as my mom raised an eyebrow at me like 'what the hell was that'.

Oh shit.

"Mind explaining?" My mom asked and I sighed.

Here comes trouble. . .

I started telling my mom what happened as she gave me a tight hug. That was so unexpected, I mean I knew that she would be upset about the whole Luke thing, but wasn't she seriously angry that two boys that was beating the shit out of each other in her house. Also that Jorge broke something since I heard glass breaking. I'm pretty sure that he broke the brand new vase she brought from an antique store near our old house. The reason I thought that he broke it was becuse the vase was all broken and was in pieces on the floor.

"I'm sorry Tini." She said comforting me. "You should've told to me that Luke's here in town. We can move if you'd like to." She asked me as I shook my head.

"Actually I don't know if I'm ready to move again. Just not yet. I'll think about it." I said wiped the tears from my face.

"If this continues, we'll leave Tini. We'll move to another country. Okay? I just care about your safety, I don't care about my work anymore." She said as I nodded. "Okay." I replied as my mom smiled at me.

"But uhm, aren't you a little bit angry at me? Uh- the boy you saw earlier was beating up Luke. And uh they're cousins. And the fact that your vase is all broken. . ?" I said questioning her.

"No I don't really care. That vase was pretty ugly anyways and cheap for that matter." She said chuckling which made me chuckle too. "Also, even if that boy - who's Luke's cousin didn't beat him up - I would have sooner or later. Plus Luke totally deserved it. Now go and get some rest." Mom told me as I cracked a small smile and she returned the gesture.

What did I do to deserve this mom, I thought, as I went to my bedroom.

I opened my cellphone as I received twenty messanges from Lodo and the other's. Just then, Lodo called me, for the fifth time today, and I finally answered her call.

"Tini are you okay? Why didn't you answer my calls? I was so worried about you. Oh gosh, what happened..? Are you hurt? Thank God that you're alive." Lodo said not letting me answer any her questions.

"I uh-hm, i'll tell you tomorrow at school. Bye Lodo." I said and hung up before she could ask anything more. I saw my phone light up, she was still calling me so l turned off my phone and jumped into my bed.

why does trouble always find me?

***

It was almost night, and I decided to go out for a quick run. I don't think that I would be able to go to school tomorrow, after what happened earlier today. And the fact that i don't want to tell Lodo and the other's everything that happened today.

I slowly opened the door and headed outside. I was running until I saw bench near a skatepark. I decided to sit there for a while, so I did it. I couldn't stop thinking about Jorge and Luke.

How was this going to turn out? And why did Jorge save me?

After the fight, my mom decided to call the ambulance, because Luke got beaten up pretty badly. He couldn't even stand upright because he hurt his head really bad. Mom called me after she went to the hospital with Luke, that he had some inner bleedings. Jorge and his family got in some serious trouble with Luke's parents, Mrs and Mr Hernandez was scaringly angry. The problems got svolved when Luke's parents heard what he was about to do and the fact that Luke is feeling a lot more better.

And here I am sitting, looking at the few stars in the sky.

That's when I heard familiar voices. I followed the voices until I saw Jorge talking to a girl. I got nearer to see the girl's face, and noticed that it was Lodo. . .

What the hell is going on?

"You know I'm sorry for breaking your heart in eight grade. And I know that it's really late to say that now. But I was afraid that you would be more angry at me if I told you that I still liked you, after that. So today I'm finally going to say it. I like you Lodo, I really do. And the thing in the party was just a mistake. A big mistake. And I'm really sorry for making you feel bad. I'll do anything to win you back again.
I've been an completely jerk, an absoloutely idiot but I'm really sorry for what I've done and caused. Please forgive me." Jorge said as I just stood there shocked.

You probably don't understand anything right now. . so let's start from when Lodo told me her secret. .

*Flashback*

"When I was younger I used to get bullied. Like really bullied in school. I didn't have a single person that would stand by my side when they hurted me. And one of my bullies was Jorge. The thing was ; he wasn't the leader, so he just did what they told him because he was scared as well. And then, one day when they were kicking and punching me, he was there for me. Hw gor my back and told them to stop." She said smiling and chuckled a bit.

"I couldn't belive it when he stood by my side. It was the first time a person did that for me and it really made me happy, gave me hope. It felt like for the first time ever I was going to be alright."

"He was my first person who did that for me. He stood up for me and helped me thought the bullying. After that, we started hanging out and he became my first and only friend. We were still young then and had never experienced love before. He thought that he loved me and so did I. We started dating when we became older and I became his girlfriend." She said still smiling. "But one time, I found him at a party. I wasn't necessarily happy, when I saw him there, kissing another girl in a party. That's the day I broke up with him and told him that it was completely over between us. And that's when he became quiet, stopped dating and never hangout with people anymore. So seeing him with you so open and free, got me jealous and a little bit confused. I never really expected Jorge to open up to you. And the more I saw him like that the more I got confused. It's been three years but I still have the same feelings for him." She said tearing up as I comforted her, feeling the same sadness inside. I knew how it was to love someone who have crushed your heart.

*End of flashback*

She nodded and started hugging him. They was there hugging each other tightly, while I just stood there speechless. Just then they broke the hug and noticed how close they were. Taking advantage of their closeness, they leaned in and kissed each other. I was happy for Lodo but at the same time I felt jealous. Jealous because at the end of the day she got the only she liked and I'm still here pondering over if Luke was right or not.

Jorge and Lodo got together so why can't I do the same thing with Luke?
