"QUE?!?" Erick screams, jumping away from me. I wrap my arms around myself and sit down.

"When she told me she had met someone I didn't think it was Joel... I thought she went back to Joey or Bryce..." I bury my head in my hands and groan. I take Erick's phone and look at the picture. My face goes red.

"WHY WOULDN'T JOEL TELL ME? WHY WOULDN'T ISABELLA TELL ME? SHE WOULD TELL ME EVERYTHING NO MATTER WHAT IT WAS!" I throw Erick's phone on the couch and start pacing.

"Mia. Cálmate, it's ok. Vente pa'ca." He motions for me to go towards him and I do. He embraces me in a hug and I feel hot wet tears streaming down my face. My quiet sniffles fill the room as Erick rubs my back trying to comfort me. I hear the door open and hug Erick tighter.

"Hello?" I hear Joel's voice and my eyes widen.

"Yo no lo quiero ver." I whisper to Erick. He nods his head and hides me in the bathroom. I put my head against the door and slide down to the floor.

"Hey, Erick have you seen Mia? I've been looking for her." I hear worry and concern in his voice. I want to open the door and run into his arms but I resist the urge.

"No, sorry." I hug me knees and rest my chin on them.

"Ok, pues yo tengo ir al baño." I hear footsteps coming closer to me and I widen my eyes. I quickly lock the door and back away from the door. I hear the door knob jiggle and a knock on the door. "Erick who's in there?"

"Zabdi, se metió para bañarse."

"Oh ok, I'll go to the other room." I let out a sigh of relief as I hear the door close. I stand up and unlock the door. I walk out and walk towards the kitchen, wanting a snack.

"Hey Erick I left my pho-" The door opens and Joel walks in. He stops as he sees me and I freeze. I slowly back up and break out into a run. I run back into the bathroom and lock the door. Joel runs after me and pounds on the door.

"Mia! Talk to me please! What did I do?" His pounds get softer and softer until he stops.

"Please..." I hear him quietly say. My face softens and I slowly get up off the floor. I unlock the door and open it. I see Joel standing outside the door, looking down at his feet. I see a tear fall and my heart breaks. I walk towards him and wrap my arms around his neck. I feel his arms around me and pull him closer to me.

I could stay here forever.
