"Am I Wrong?"

*earlier that same day*

Joel's P.O.V

Tell me who's mother waits for their kid to come home at 2 am in the morning, in the darkness, sitting in the corner in the living room?! My mother apparently!! That woman almost gave me a heart attack!! Almost thought, almost.

"Joel!! ¡¿Que horas son estas de llegar?! Me tienes con el Jesus en la boca niño !!" She exclaims loudly as soon as I close the front door and lock it. "Perdón mamá, es que lo que pasa es que hubo un problema y se me pasaron las horas," I said as calmly as possible.

"¿Que te pasó? ¡¿Y por qué vueles a perfume de mujer?! Si hiciste lo que estoy pensando cuando menos usaste protección verdad?" She asked in a very serious tone. Okay and I thought I was the crazy one in this family. "Ewww mamá, que cosas estás pensando, y no, no hice eso, son cosas del demonio," I said joking.

"Y si lo hubiera echo hubiera usado protección pero no lo hice, así que tranquila," I then added when I saw her become a bit worried. "Y la razón por qué llegue tarde es por qué le estaba ayudando a Yoandri con algo muy fuerte," I then told her.

"Y porque vueles a perfume de mujer? No me vayas a decir que Yoandri traía perfume de mujer," She questioned as she sat down once again. "No mom, oh my lo que pasa es que me di un golpe y Annabeth, la hermana de Yoandri, me ayudó a limpiarme la herida y tal vez por eso vuelo a perfume de mujer," I said back as I pointed to the blue bandaid on my forehead.

Yeah sue me, I lied to my mom. But I just could not tell her that I was making out with my best friend's sister. "¿Hay mi pobre bebe, como te sientes estás bien? ¿Por qué no me dijiste antes?" She said as she stood up from her spot and embraced me in a tight hug.

"Si mama estoy bien pero estoy muy cansado," I replied honestly. "Hay pero como no vas a estar cansado son las dos de la mañana niño, así que derecho a la cama y mañana me cuentas más sobre esta chica, Annabeth," She said smirking a bit.

Oh no I know that look anywhere. She knows I feel something towards Annabeth now. How does she know? Well I do not know but I know she knows. A mother always somehow knows everything. They are magical I tell you.

"Um, hablar sobre quién? Y um por qué o qué? Y de que?" I asked nervously. "Tú ya sabes de quién Joel, no te hagas," She said winking. "Nope, no sé de que me está hablando usted querida madre, así que buenas noches, I love you," I said quickly as I kissed her goodnight and I quickly but quietly made my way into my room.

I really needed to take a shower, but my bed looked so comfortable right now. Ugh. The shower can wait till the morning. I quickly take off my jacket, shirt, and pants. Yes, I sleep in my boxers only, do not judge me. But soon enough I am laying on my bed and I drift off into a peaceful well needed slumber.

*later that afternoon*

I slowly wake up to the sound of loud voices coming from somewhere downstairs. Probably the kitchen. The downside of living with us the Pimentels was that we were very loud in the mornings. I do not know why but the Pimentels including myself are always full with energy in the mornings.

But today I just wanted to lay on my bed all day. While I replayed the scene of the kiss me and Annabeth shared last night at the Vera's house. Mm I was still missing the feeling of her lips against mine. But before my thoughts could escalate any further I was rudely interrupted by the second youngest monkey, Israel, knocking on my door.

"Eww Joel it stinks in here but mom sent me to wake you up," he said in a annoyed tone. I loved him a lot but sometimes he could get too sassy. "Why though? Can't I go back to sleep?" I asked whining a bit too much.

Dude it is currently 4:30 pm, you slept more than 13 hours bro, fucking lazy ass," he replied back. "Uhh I am going to tell mom you swore," I said in a teasing tone. "Aha sure you will but first take a shower you stink," he said laughing. "Oh shut up I will be down in a few," I then replied. And with that he was gone and soon enough I was inside the shower. I already felt a lot more relaxed.

*After sexy shower time*

After a very long needed shower I started getting ready. As soon as I was done dressing I make my way downstairs. "Pleaseeee mom let me go to the movies," said Gabo as soon as I got downstairs. Gabo was the youngest of us and I was closer to him than anyone else.

"Perdon Gabo, no tengo tiempo de llevarte hoy amor," my mom answered sadly. This is my chance to have some bonding time with my little bro... "Yo puedo ir con el si nos dejas ir, no tengo nada que hacer y me gustaría pasar un buen tiempo con Gabo," I then tell my mom.

"Esta bien, los dos pueden ir, pero con cuidado y no lleguen tarde otra vez," my mom said in a serious tone as she looked at me. "No te preocupes llegaremos a tiempo para la cena," I said finally. Soon enough we were both on our way to the movies.

We soon got to the theater around 8:40 just in time for a new showing of the new movie, suicide squad. I know Gabo should probably not watch it but hey he picked it. And well me being a good brother can not say no to him. Plus you should see his puppy faces they are the cutest and you can not say no to them.

As we made our way inside I kinda lost sight of Gabo. Great job Joel, I said to myself as I started looking for him. Soon enough I found him but let me just tell you the sight in front of me made me regret ever leaving my bed... There stood Annabeth, looking as beautiful as ever, but that was not what made my heart break a little. She was not alone she was with another guy... Erick. And I'll be lying if I said it did not hurt me like hell...
