TIME SKIP - 5:50pm

*Jorge's POV*

It was 5:50 and I had just spoken to Syd and tried to beg him to tell me what was happening but he kept responding with I don't know what your talking about. He is so bad at lying. It had finally turned 6:00 so I walked out side and I saw Benji in a really cute floral t-shirt and jeans and some custom vans with his face on.

Benji: do you like my shoes?
Jorge: like them... I love them...
Benji: *laughs*

Benji said we were going to 'a secret hideout' but I could tell he was lying. We walked through the forest and I had extreme deja vu of when we were little... I couldn't help but recognise the place where we were at. Suddenly I see a beautiful glistening clear lake and I knew we were at the same spot where Benji kissed me when we were little.

Benji: do you remember this place?
Jey: yes I do.
Benji: do you remember what I did?
Jey: yes *I smile*
Benji: so you'll remember me doing this then.

Benji pushes me into the river and jumps after me. I look at him in angryness as all the makeup and blush I'd put on was smudged and falling down my face. I got out as the water was extremely cold and I sat down watching Benji swim under the water. He gets out and sits next to me.

Benji: I came here everyday after I got out of the hospital

Jey: what even happened?

Benji: I slit my rists when my mom told me you were dead. I wanted to be with you even if it costed me my life.

Jey: I remember the conversation my mom had with your mom.

Benji: you do?

Jey: yes I was in the car when my mom told you. She did it to protect you as my brother saw me kissing you that day and showed the picture to my mom. They sent me to a camp ran by my uncle and cousins. I was beaten every night and I just wanted to be with you the whole time. When I was removed from the camp I had to stay home for 2years and have no social interaction but I secretly had a friendship with Syd. (Once saying this a tear rolls down my face and lands on my knee)

Benji: oh. Don't cry I'm here now. Is that son of a bitch brother of yours here cause I'll beat his ass.

Jey: no he isn't it's just my dad. If my dad sees me with you I'll be sent back to camp. I don't want to go back there it's horrible.

Benji: just know you won't be going to camp without me there I'll be with you all the way.

Jey: I love you.

I didnt even realise I said I love you to Benji until he blushed and said he loved me back. I layed down and we fell asleep and then we woke up around 8:00 and went back to syds house and slept in syds spare room. I just wished we could stay like this forever but I knew I would be leaving back to Barcelona in 5 days. I had to:

1) tell benji
2) make the most out of the days.

I look at my phone and I get a text from my dad.

This words made me want to throw up and I slapped Benji's arm and screamed at him crying. He asked me what was wrong and I told him. He refuses to let me go back to Barcelona.
