YUP, you guessed it right, the door knocked.

*******

It was dark outside which meant that few hours have passed. I fixed my hair and balanced my self up a bit before getting up to open the door, the door that had Kayl behind it. 

"Kayl,," I said rubbing my eyes. "When did you arrive? W,,, what time is it?"

"Half an hour ago, and it’s about 9." He replied.

"Uhm,, can I help you with anything?" I asked in a casual attitude since he’s been oddly getting on my nerves.

"The hotel is fully booked, I’ll share the room with Justin and Cameron but they’re out-" 

"You wanna chill here for a while until they get you a room?" I interrupted him as I sensed how hard it was for him to keep this sentence going. So he nodded in reply with a grateful face. I let him and went in to the bathroom to wash my face. I got out and he was sitting on the couch tying his hair up in a bun that was made in heaven.

"Tea?" I asked him turning the boiler on.

"Okay." He replied getting up. He grabbed the two mugs in the room. "Sugar?" 

"No." I said remembering my diabetic lame ass. Apparently my facial expressions showed exactly what was going on in my head so he didn’t put sugar in his cup either. "You don’t like sugary things?"

"White poison." He admitted so I smiled back. 

We sat quietly for a while drinking the tea, I was going through my phone and he was looking out of the window. Neither of us seemed to have the intention to break the silence. I couldn’t stand his presence anyways, after the last conversation we’ve had he probaboy hated me and didnt want to have anything to do with me. And I obviously lost any sort of desire I had to have a conversation with him, this time I wasnt backing down.

"Mr. Luiz saw us the other day arguing." He mumbled looking straight ahead towards the window that showed Ibiza’s streets.

"Oh yeah?" I wondered. "And...?"

"He thought it wouldn’t be a good idea for us to fly together in such a short period after we’d almost slit each other’s throats." He stated.

"That’s why you didn’t fly us to Rome?" I asked and he nodded in reply. "I honestly didn’t care why you didn’t join us, Lesandra was obviously giving you company." Why! Why did I say this lmao?!

"Yes." He scoffed. "You obviously didn’t care."

"And does it matter whether I care or not anyways." I murmured.

"What if it does?" He asked moving his face towards with his eyes looking at my face not my eyes. I didnt know what to say,, my brain froze with a mixture of feelings that I cant find words to describe.

"It doesn’t." I hesitated. "For as far as I know, you only care about yourself." 

"See that’s the thing no one gets it, that’s why I never bother explain." He said aggressively. 

"Man the fuck are you talking about?!" I asked getting up and sitting next to him. "For once in your life, say a sentence with no riddles. Speak your mind clearly like you mean it, maybe then people would get it." After I finished my sentence Kayl kept looking me in the eyes for a minute, hesitating to speak, opening his mouth to speak then closing it again as if talking hurts him.

"Every time,,, every time someone becomes part of my life, something happens and they leave. So I dont need this anymore, no one needs people who leave." He stated.

"What about people who stay?"

"They never do." He shaked his head looking down at his feet. I felt bad for Kayl. Every time him and I end up talking heart to heart, I feel his pain without understanding it.

"It’s okay, you know." I said slowly putting my arm on his back with my left hand resting on his left shoulder. "It’s okay to be vulnerable, it’s okay to need people sometimes." I felt like he needed a hug but would never dare do it, so i rested my head on his right shoulder not caring what he’ll think about this. I only knew I was in the presence of someone who got hurt so many times that he can certainly use some love. We stayed this way for a while, he didnt move a bone or say a word. I didn’t want to break free from this, I really could stay like that forever. I didn’t know the nature of my feelings towards him back then. I only knew they certainly werent hatered, or friendship.

"No, Destiny." He said removing my hand from on his shoulder. "You don’t know anything."

"What if I do?!" I replied. "I know about your family." His expression shifted from sadness to confusion and a spike of anger.

"What? How?" He inquired. "What do you know?!"

"I know you lost your mom at 17, I know all what you’ve been through with your father and sister and her husband. And god knows I’m so fucking sorry you had to go through all this Arsen." I belted all what was in me with zero care of what his reaction might be, but I just couldn’t keep it in anymore.

"You don’t know anything." He got up and started pacing around the room like he’s about to explode.

"I may not know it all,, but I know enough to understand why you act the way do now. And I just want you to kno-" he intterupted.

 "No one knows the truth alright?!" He cried. "And trust me, you wouldn’t say what you’re saying now if you found out, so just do as I told you and dont get yourself too involved." He stormed out of the room slamming the door behind him and I didn’t have a soul in me anymore to actually follow him.

I stayed in my place for a while, wondering whether I had done the right thing or completely and utterly fucked everything up. But it didn’t matter back then, merely because the next day will uncover more secrets.
