As Eduardo drove to his house, the image of Daphne's beautiful lips, swearing to him that he'd never score, was tantalizing him. They were so plump and pink with their heart-shaped peak, just tempting him to touch them with his own.

"So...you liked the white girl, huh?" Sofia asked from the passenger seat, pulling him out of his thoughts.

"Since when are you so racist? It's Daphne. Not the white girl."

"Sorry, I just forgot her name already. Figures you'd remember it." She crossed her arms over her chest and looked straight ahead at the road.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Don't act dumb." She scoffed. "I saw the way you looked at her. Typical for you and David to start flirting with the first pretty girl that walks your way."

"Nah, hell no! David better back off 'cause I saw her first!"

Sofia turned to face him again. "So you admit it! You do like her!"

"Yea, I mean, why not? She's pretty and you just said that yourself."

Sofia rolled her eyes and reached over to turn the radio up instead of resuming the conversation.

When they finally got to his house and Eduardo stepped inside, a guy threw his arms around him, yelling, "I'm so glad you're okay!!"

Eduardo was taken by surprise before realizing who it was. "Luigi, come on. Get off me, please."

Luigi chuckled as he let go of him and hugged Sofia next. He was the gay friend in their group. Messing around with him and David, claiming that one day he would manage to drag at least one of them to his side of the spectrum, was one of his favorite hobbies.

David and Eva were already there too, sitting close together on the sofa as they took silly pictures with his phone. They stuck their tongues out for the camera and right when he tapped the button to snap a picture, Inez pulled his arm to haul him up.
