Best Friend's Brother - Alejandro Rosario

Chapter Thirty - Friday Night

My stitches are finally out and starting to feel like myself again. I have been taking photos of random things non stop with my camera. I have decided to finally contact the school and let them know I will be sitting exam next week. They agreed to that and have suggested that I go to school for this week so I can get organised for the exam and hopefully past this year. 

I am done feeling sorry for myself, I need to move on and now. I no longer want to think about Valentino or anything that has happened in the past. I have decided to try to call my mum one last time and if she doesn't answer I am going to save up to get a house now that I have started getting paid from Tik Tok. I called three times and no answer, my mum is basically dead to me, she is never there for me. I left her a nasty text message because I am so done with her. 

I filmed a Tik Tok of me getting ready for this outing that Alejandro is taking me to while using the audio Roxanne and I ended up posting it. I was so close to a million followers and I was hoping tonight will be the night when I finally reach my goal. Tonight I was wearing a white crop top with light blue mum jeans and some boots. I wore light makeup and curled the ends of my hair, I hope my outfit was okay as he didn't tell me how to dress. I was feeling myself and I don't know why I was kind of scared to go out with Alejandro. Just the thought of starting another relationship freaks me out. I looked at myself in the mirror. "Whatever happens, happens. Just enjoy yourself." I said to myself in the mirror reassuring myself that I have nothing to worry about. 

I heard a knock on Sevanah's door and I opened the door expecting to see Alejandro but except I saw Sevanah. "Where are you going looking all nice and dressed up?" I just smiled. 

"I'm going out," I said not wanting to give her details as I know she doesn't want me to date her brother. 

"He's a lucky guy." She said while walking out of her room after grabbing the iPhone charger. 

When Sevanah left, Alejandro came out with jeans and a nice shirt. He looked nice but not too dressy which made me feel better looking at my light mum jeans. 

We went walked out of the front door together and Sevanah stopped us. My heart sunk. 

"It's not what you think," Alejandro said. 

"It looks like my best friend is going on a date with my brother." I just looked at my shoes. "You guys have fun but not too much fun." She said while smiling. I was shocked. Alejandro grabbed my hand while walking me to the car and my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't help but smile. 

When I got in the car I did up my seat belt. I got a message from Sevanah. 

S- I miss that smile X I just looked at her through the living room window and smile widely. 

S- My brother better not break your heart. She wrote to me. 

C- He won't trust me, we're taking things slow and we have agreed on going out as friends so you don't have anything to worry about. I responded to her. 

I turned off my phone to pay full attention to Alejandro. "Where are you taking me?" I asked while smiling at him. I had full butterflies in my stomach. 

"It's a surprise." I'm not going to lie, getting into another relationship just freaks me out. I know deep down that Alejandro won't be anything like Valentino but just the thought scares me. 

We just made some conversation and he took me to a diner. The diner wasn't busy which was good. The booths were red and the music was soft pop. The waitresses were wearing yellow aprons. We engaged in conversation talking about soccer and that's when I had to ask him about his room. 

"When I came out of the hospital, I saw your room completely smashed and your trophy on the floor smashed, why did you do that?" I asked hesitantly not knowing where this was going. He immediately looked down and I swallowed a lump that was forming in my throat. 

"I went to the hospital and I couldn't help but blamed myself." he paused and looked down. "If I was with you when you were getting ready for the dinner, none of this would have happened. Anyway, when I went to the hospital, I tried to see you but Sevanah wouldn't let me. I went onto Tik Tok room to see the footage of Cleo and I kissing and I didn't know she recorded us. I was so mad at myself. While I was hooking up with Cleo you were getting beaten and the reason I did it was that I thought you weren't interested in going with me. I ended up smashing everything to help with my anger." Tears were falling down his cheeks. I left the booth and sat next to him to hug him. I don't want him blaming himself. 

"Have you spoken to Cleo since." He shook his head. 

"I just blocked her on everything, I honestly don't want to see her again." 

"Hi I'm Antonia, I will be your waitress today." She handed me menus. Alejandro looked at her and then back at me. She walked off and I smiled. 

"You look a lot like her," Alejandro said while looking at the menu. I just giggled. 

"She's too pretty to look like me." 

"You're pretty," Alejandro said. I just started laughing. 

"That was so cringing and so cheesy but thank you," I said while giggling.  

I ordered a burger and cheesy chips and Alejandro ordered pasta. Surprisingly after everything that we spoke about it wasn't awkward. The food was so good and we ate in silence. I looked at him and w made eye contact and we just sat there and smiled. I wonder what he was thinking about. 

"Here's the bill." Antonia came back and I grabbed my purse to pay. 

"Nope, I insist." Alejandro paid for the meals.

We jumped in the car and the sun was just starting to set. 

"Thank you for tonight," I said while he started the car. 

"It's not over yet." I was confused but he started driving. We came across the most beautiful view ever. It showed all of New Jersey lights. 

"This is so pretty," I said while taking in the view. I got out of the car and so did Alejandro but left the car running and we just sat in front of the car. We were both taking in the view, not one of us saying a word, it was so peaceful here. He grabbed my hand which gave me butterflies. I scooted next to him and I leaned my head on his shoulders. I felt so safe and I didn't want to leave. He was playing with the ends of my hair and I was listening to the music coming out of Alejandro car. I was so at ease and I didn't want this moment to end. 

Alejandro looked at me and at my lips, my heart started beating out of my chest. He started to lean in and I turned my head. I'm just not ready for this. 

"Sorry." He whispered. 

"No don't apologise,"  I said. 

"No I need to, we agreed to just be friends and I stepped over the line. I didn't mean t-" I couldn't stand listening to him. I kissed him because even though I don't feel ready, I know I can't wait anymore because if I don't move on now I will never move on, plus I always wanted to know how his lips felt. I pulled away and smiled at him. 

"I don't think we can just be friends," I said while lying back down into his arms. His smile was so wide and hugged me. I can't believe I just kissed my best friend's brother and I have to admit, I have never felt this happy before.
