Tipsy

"You're joking?" cries Violetta as we take another drink of wine.

"I wish! It was crazy!" I reply laughing, "Those women need a hobby!"

"I'm pretty sure stalking my dad is their hobby!"

It's so great that Violetta is old enough to drink because sitting on the sofa with a bottle of wine, we are having a blast.

"Anyway, anyway, so what did you do?"

"I walked off!" I cry laughing.

"I don't blame you, they are absolutely ridiculous!" she cries.

"Don't we know it! Anyway, less of them, more of us! How is your life going?" I say taking another drink.

"Good. I'm happy. I'm waiting for Leon to return from tour! I mean we are 21- We've been together four years! So yes, there were a few breaks, but now we are going strong and things are good. I'm just not sure about us being forever though, I mean, we can't seem to get past the whole teenage relationship thing."

I nod, "I totally understand. So back when I was your age, there was this guy. He wanted to be a rockstar and he had a car, so I thought he was cool. He wanted us to be forever, but he didn't treat me like a wife. He treated me like a high school sweetheart. He wasn't ever going to grow up."

"Well what happened?" asks Vilu.

"I dumped his sorry butt." I reply laughing, "That probably wasn't the best example though."

Violetta is now laughing, "Perhaps not!"

"Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm actually hopeless! I'm sure you and Leon will be different. He's always there for you! My boyfriend 'accidently' left me at the petrol station so I really don't think we should use him to compare."

Violetta and I are in hysterics.

"Well, I just want Leon to tell me where I stand. I want to know what's happening with us." she says taking another drink.

"I agree, that's annoying!"

Violetta looks at me as if I just stabbed someone, "You hypocrite!"

"What?" I say confused.

"You won't tell dad where he stands! Are you together? Are you not? You are equally as bad, if not worse!" she screams.

"I'm not! German knows where he stands, he knows I need time, I've give him a chance." I cry.

"No! You've given him false hope! You live in spain still! Snap back to reality! You need to make a choice. Do you want to live here with us or in spain?"

I sighed, "I want to live with you! You're my family! All I want is to stay!"

"Then go back to spain tomorrow, pack every last bit up and get back here permenantly! I'll get you your job back while you're gone!"

"I can't agree to move back until I've spoke to your father. We have things that need to be cleared up." I say taking another glass of wine, "Anyway, enough of that, how long have we been talking."

"It's three in the morning, eurghh and I have the studio tomorrow, I'm going to bed." says Violetta pulling herself up, "Speaking of the studio, Pablo invited you round for dinner not tomorrow but the next day, almost forgot about that. Anyway sleep well."

"You too."

Despite it being late I figured I should send Marie a text considering I haven't spoke to her or Valeria over the last few days.

'Got distracted and forgot to call. Things got complicated as I was about to tell German about Valeria. I'll call before she goes to bed. We really need to talk. I'm off to bed xoxo'

I left my phone on the table and began my way upstairs. I was far too exausted. Tomorrow I'd have to talk to Marie and clear my head.
