Class had finished for the week, and we're only a couple more weeks away from entering the Mint. Nairobi had discovered a festival happening in the nearby village, and had invited me to join her, Tokyo, Rio and Denver.

I had warned Andrés I may be creeping into his room late, and surprisingly, he seemed relaxed about the idea of me going out. Maybe he really listened to me that day we had a chat about my youthful freedom, and the little I had left.

"Don't come back drunk!" Andrés says firmly as I close his bedroom door, I roll my eyes, he must be joking if he thinks I'm not going to have a drink.

I walk literally to the next door, to hear Tokyo and Nairobi discussing their outfits, when I knock on the door.

"Come in!" Tokyo welcomes and I open it to see the girls smiling happily. Nairobi had bright red lipstick on, which didn't really suit her, but I wasn't the one to burst her bubble. Tokyo has her hair in pinktails with retro glasses on and a skirt I wish I owned. "You look incredible!" She exclaims with a fag between her teeth, my first ever compliment from Tokyo, so I smile and thank her appreciating this moment with her.

I was wearing a strappy green crop top and a sparkly skirt, my hair is lose and a pair of blue sunglasses I had packed rest on the bridge of my nose.

"Time to party!" Rio opens the door and shouts.

Instantly Tokyo hushes him: "The Professor's keys?" And with that, Rio dangles them out like a toy a cat could play with. I laugh at his excitement and Nairobi snatches them from him. Tokyo sticks her cigarette in Rio's mouth, but when he breathes it in he splutters a cough loudly.

"Aww poor baby Rio, is that your first ever puff?" I giggle whilst he calms himself down and puts his wild glasses on, checking himself out in the mirror.

"Where's Denver?" Nairobi whispers.

"I don't know!" Rio says characterfully.

Denver smoothly dances in, with a beer in one hand and a smirk on his face. And that's when my smile drops and my heart plummets to the bottom of my stomach. He's wearing Andrés' velvet green jacket that we both love dearly.

"What is this?" Nairobi asks. "Is that Berlin's jacket?" Her voice raises.

"It sure is!" Denver smugly replies, Nairobi laughs, knowing the danger he'll be in when Andrés finds out. And let's be honest, he will find out.

"He's going to kill you!" She screams.

Tokyo turns the music off and tells us we need to get going, we begin walking to the door quickly, when suddenly Denver spins on his heels.

"Silence, silence..." He raises his hand and holds his head up proudly whilst smirking at us all. "I'm feeling, I'm feeling... shhh." He acts. "Have I told you before about my five wives?" Denver bursts out laughing, pretending to be Andrés and we all laugh too.

I smirk, his impression was pretty good. "They wanted to get impregnated, but then, what came out of there..." He purrs just like my partner does. "It was a nuclear war!" He then tickles Nairobi who screams with laughter, Tokyo and Rio laugh at his acting, whereas I frown.

I finally got a taste of what everyone else thought of him and his persona. A snob, a serial lover, an asshole who just loved having sex and no responsibilities. They were all true of course, but it meant no one suspected that he loved me, so I suppose I could let him off.

"Come on, idiots!" I push Nairobi and Denver. "Lt's get in the car!" Denver picks me up and carries me to the car making me chuckle hard from the surprise.
