NEW YEAR | Joaley, Portuguese and English |

three

Vanessa and Maya appear at the end of the hall, with Joalin's bags and purses. The youngest pushed them into her brother's room.

"Let's let them talk", she said, closing the door. The two were still hugging each other.

Matt finally stopped recording and the family went back down the stairs.

-What are you doing here?- He asked placing the girl on the floor, not in a thick way but in surprise.

-Your father called me 10 days ago, saying that you were strange and sad- She threw herself on the Filipino's bed, the sheets smelled like him.

-And then you decide to interrupt your family vacation in Finland to see me?

-I'm a really good friend, you have to kiss my feet, Mailey Bay - She replied jokingly and the Asian threw himself on the bed next to her -So, will you tell me what is the lack for?

-It's nothing- It was clear that he wasn't telling the truth.

-Are you going to lie to your best friend?- Asked outraged -I spent hours on a plane to see you, so it's better for you to tell me, I won't leave until we has a serious conversation.

-So you never leave - he shrugged.

-I know you like my presence - She laughed - Come on Bay, I'm not kidding.

-What excuse are we going to give for you to be here? Our fans will definitely ask.

-How about the truth?

-Okay- He rolled his eyes, not very satisfied- Let's do a live? My dad must have already posted the video, so let's kill them once in for all.

-Okay- She didn't even realize she was trying to get away from the conversation- But then we'll talk

The Filipino took his cell phone from the nightstand and fiddled with it for a while before starting the live.

-Hello - He said smiling- How are you?

-HI- Joalin said aloud, passing between May's arm and the cellphone, to stay within the view of the camera, which made them extremely close. She leaned her head against the boy's chest and forced her eyes to read the messages without having to sit.

Some fans seemed surprised to see them together, others had already seen Matt's video, but surely everyone was euphoric.

-So, you're asking what Joalin is doing in London - he put an arm around Loukamaa's waist, pressing her against him.

-Matt called me a few days ago inviting me to spend the new year with them, because someone- Pointed to Bailey - Was a little sad and needy. He should be missing me -She joked and he laughed shyly.

They laughed at the messages that arrived, preferring not to read aloud in order not to cause a bad atmosphere between them.

-I think we're going to sleep now, it's late- Bailey said after seeing the blonde yawning.

-Good night people, see you tomorrow.- She waves to the device and he smiled looking at her, before ending the transmission- You can start explaining now- She said, relaxing her head on the boy's chest.

-Are you sure, Jojo?- tried to wind up the conversation one more time, while touching her hair.

-Absolute. You know you can tell me anything, I want you to be hundred per cent sincere.

-But what if you think it's bullshit?

-Best friends are for that, Bailey- She turned face down, getting face to face with him- To understand and hear even small things, which can sometimes do a giant damage.

-Okay. Since I came back to the UK, I have been thinking about my life, about the way I have been living it for the past few years and of course I am very happy to live and fulfill my dreams, to grow, to feel independent. Sometimes I think that all this came very early in my life, that is good in most of the time, but when I stop to think of more futile things, I kind of never lived my adolescence as a normal young man. Traveling the world with my friends is amazing, but I didn't have the opportunity to go to a party, screw up, meet new people.

-I understand you, it was like that with most of us. Few managed to keep a group of friends, few managed to return home and "enjoy life". It's normal, you can't let that change. You are a star, Bailey May, you were chosen, it was not Ylona, ​​AC or any other Filipino, if you were the one who came in, between of so many people it's because you are capable, your place is with us, traveling the world and showing your talent to people.

-I know, I know- He looks down.

-Not only that, isn't it?

-Yes. For some time now some strange things have happened.

-Say it.

-This contract, have to tell our fans that it exists when we can actually have something but we can't tell them, that's wrong.

-Yes, but we have no other choice. No one is happy or approves this contract. I don't understand why you're caring so much about it now, if you're not with anyone.

-It's that... - breathed heavily- Forget it.

-Now speak

-It's nothing, it's just so wrong and suffocating.

--Actually it is not that we need to "hide", we just can't assume with all the letters. I don't understand Simon's head- tried to comfort him.

-Neither I -He rolled his eyes.

-You're really all sentimental and needy- She laughed hugging him, he let himself be propped up resting his head on her chest and listening to her heartbeat- Can I go home now? We already had our conversation- She joked

-No way, now that you are here you will spend the new year with me- He cuddled even more in her lap and they both laughed.

-Now I really need a shower and a bed- She moved away from him- Is Maya already asleep? I'm afraid to wake her up- She said pulling her bags up next to the bedroom door.

-Are you really going to leave your needy best friend alone? Sleep here, because if Maya wakes up you'll end up being beaten up, she becomes unbearable when sleepy.

-Okay- she rolled her eyes feeling her body burn, opened her suitcase looking for something to wear.

-Bathroom?- She asked confused between the closet and the bathroom door. The Asian pointed to the correct one and soon she left the space.

Joalin was tired and all she needed was a good long shower, that's exactly what she did. Then he put on comfortable clothes, shorts and a gray sleeve shirt, brushed her teeth and went back to the bedroom.

Bailey was already asleep, which made her realize that she took too long in the bathroom, he wore only shorts with a cartoon print, he was really a big child (and hot, she had to admit). 

She lay down on the other side of the bed and wrapped up on the blanket, not taking to long to fall asleep.
