I wake up to the sound of vibration. I open my eyes and as I guessed it's my phone ringing.
I try to move my hand but it wasn't until then that I realized that Diablo had his hands wrapped around me.
Last night, we both came back into the room, laid down on the floor since the beds were taken and fell asleep.
Slowly, I wiggle my way out of his grip, take my phone, then stand up to take the phone call outside the room.
By the time I made it outside I missed the call.
It was from Daniel.
So I call back.
"Hello?" He answers.
"Hey, Danny."
"I've been trying to reach you. Are you doing okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine.
"Good to hear. I was so worried and I was going crazy because reach you."
"I'm sorry. Things have been from bad to fucking worse in a second. Anyways, plans are that I'm leaving tonight and I'm taking my homegirls with me. I just wanted to know if you still-"
"Yes," he cuts me off. "I'm still down just tell me what the plan is."
I smile, "well the girls are all set up and good to go. I have to somehow sneak into my own house to get my passport and shit."
"All right, well I'll come with you."
"Absolutely not! It's fucking dangerous!" I hissed.
"Veronica, I've faced against trained soldiers. I'm sure I can take down a couple of street scumbags. I'm going and that's it. You shouldn't even be going there in the first place," he snaps.
"We'll see. Come meet with us were staying at a hotel, I'll send you the address. Oh and Diablo wants to talk have a talk with you so please-"
"He's the last person I want to see. I blame that son of a bitch for all the fuck-ups in your life and-"
"Daniel please, there's enough going on. Just hear him out, okay?"
I hear him sigh, "fine."
"Okay well come as soon as you can. I'll send you the address."
And we hang up.

"Hey, you don't have to go if you don't want too," Melissa's voice jumps me out of my thoughts.
"Hm?" I asked feeling confused for a second.
She chuckles lightly. "Girl you look stressed. I said, if you don't want to go with Diablo then don't. Let them go. I'm sure they'll find your passport and shit."
I smirk, "they won't have enough time to look for it before they become ambushed."
"I guess you're right. I just pray for you all to make it out okay," she sighs.
I nod, "me too."
"Is Daniel going to be here soon?" Angle jumps in.
"Yeah is he even going to show up?" Odin asks with a frown.
They were sitting at the far corner. I see pass him and over at Diablo. He has the same expression.
It's a little past the afternoon, and Daniel still hasn't shown up. We talked early in the morning, and I thought he'd showed up an hour later, but he hasn't.
"He'll be here," I simply state.
Right after I said that a knock sounds at the door.
"I'll get it," I said getting up.
Corey follows me with his gun in hand ready to shoot in case it was someone. Someone dangerous.
I peek through the small hole of the door. As expected it's Daniel.
I quickly open the door.
"Hey," he smiles then takes me into a hug.
"It's always good to see you," I tell him hugging him tightly.
For a second I forgot Diablo is in the room watching us so I cut the hug short and close the door behind him.
We closer to the group and I can barely breathe with all the tension. Odin, Gustavo, Corey, Adrian, and Clumsy give him the typical head jerk 'what's up', and Diablo, he did the same but his expression remained tensed. He might trust him but that doesn't mean he likes him. He doesn't like the idea of Daniel and I are good friends.
"Daniel, hi, it's been forever," Melissa cuts the tension a little bit.
"It's nice to see you, Melissa," he says greeting her with a kiss on the cheek.
Gustavo coughs, clearly jealous, and says, "so where are you taking them exactly?"
Daniel turns around to answer, "It's up to them. My parents have houses all over the place where they can lay low for as long as they need. In Spain, England, Italy, Australia, you name it."
My heart breaks watching Diablo looking anywhere but me. I can tell he's hurting because of how far apart we're going to be.
"Are you a millionaire or something?" Clumsy blurts out.
"My parents were," Daniel answers shortly.
"How about transportation?" Odin asks.
"I own a private jet. It'll be at our disposal at all times."
"You really trust this guy?" Odin now asks Diablo.
The room gets quiet as Diablo and Daniel exchange looks. Both filled with tension and it's obvious they had so much they want to let out.
Diablo finally looks at me and asks, "do you trust him?"
I nod in less than a second.
"Then I do too," he says. "But I do need to go over some things with you."
Daniel nods once and Diablo for him to follow and leads him outside.
Whatever it is they talked about, it took forever. By that, I mean an entire hour. I even went to check on them once to make sure they hadn't killed one another and fortunately, that wasn't the case.
When they came back we discussed the plan to invade my own home so I can get my personal documentation to leave the country. By the end, we all knew our part.
We leave in a couple of hours then before I know it, we'll be out the country by tonight.
Let's just hope none of us die.
