Emilio's pov
"That Mia girl's really cute." Jimena comments as we're both getting ready in our hotel room for sushi night.
Turns out we're both sharing a room now. I feel bad for Ivan but he's old enough, he understands.
Images of the night Mia and I had done the dirty deed flushes through my mind and I swallow hard.
"Uh yeah, yeah, she's cute." I reply casually.
She puts her tank top on and grabs her leather jacket off the bed and looks at me weirdly.
"Not as cute as you though. She's nice." I shrug.
She narrows her eyes at me as if she's studying me.
"You acting weird. Is there something you not telling me?"
I chew the inside of my cheek.
Should I just tell her? I know I can trust her.
"Listen Jimena..." I take her hand in mine and lead her to sit with me on the bed.
Once we both sitting on the edge of the bed I look deeply in her eyes, "There's something I need to talk to you about..."

Mia's pov
We all sat around a table at the sushi restaurant Jimena had showed us. The fancy restaurant had windows for walls, low hanging lights that created a warm glow around the room. The chairs were made out of comfortable cream coloured leather.
Only the air around us felt somewhat 'off' for some reason.
There was tension.
I couldn't tell if it was from the weird looks Jimena kept giving me or the fact that Emilio kept shifting uncomfortably in his seat.
When the boys held their own conversation between them, I leaned in to Jimena.
"Hey, is everything okay? Between us?" I ask her.
She nods and gives me a tight smile, "Yeah, everything's fine."
Still something felt off.
We all ate most of the sushi and had small talk amongst each other.
"Why don't we get back to the hotel? I got a little surprise for us all." Jimena says slyly.
Everyone agrees.
When we got to the hotel it was almost midnight.
We all stepped into Jimena's hotel room.
Ivan plopped down stomach first across the bed, Emilio sat on the sofa and Boggi and I stood in the middle of the room while he's arm hung loosely around my neck.
I loved him being close like this to me, not only was his scent comforting but he made me feel safe.
"Hey, Jimena. What's this 'surprise' you told us about?" Ivan asks Jimena who's sitting on Emilio's lap.
She hops off from him and walks over to one of her bags.
I giggle slightly at something cute Boggi whispers into my ear.
"Really, Jimena. Sneaking alcohol into a hotel?" Emilio questions her.
I look over at her and my smile fades when I see a glass bottle filled with a clear liquid.
"What? Are you here to have fun or not?" She asks him.
He rolls his eyes and huffs as he gets up from the sofa and walks over to the bed where Jimena sets up shot glasses on the small bedside table.
"I don't think this is a good idea. I think I'm just gonna go to bed-" I start.
"Oh don't tell me your new friends a bore too." Jimena sarcastically says.
My blood starts to boil.
"Fine...I'm in." I state.
We all sit on the edge of the bed and Jimena hands each of us a shot.
We then all cheers and take the shot in one go.
The liquid burns my throat and leave a dry, bitter taste in my mouth.
I then see Jimena pouring more.
"Let's play 'Never Have I Ever'." Jimena suggests.
"Never have I ever done 'it' more than once." Jimena starts.
Emilio takes his shot and so does Ivan and Boggi.
I look up at Boggi weirdly.
"I've been around..." Boggi shrugs, "Don't judge me."
"I'm not." I place a kiss on his cheek.
Jimena fills their glasses.
"Never have I ever-"
"You had your turn." Ivan argues at Jimena.
"My game, my rules."
Ivan shuts his parted lips.
"Never have I ever...done it with someone else's boyfriend..." Jimena's eyes lands on me and I feel my stomach drop.
"...Or girlfriend." She finishes.
I don't drink my shot but Emilio shoots his after a short moment while avoiding eye contact with everyone.
"No way. You never told me this." Ivan says, amusement glistening in his eyes.
"Yes, why don't you tell us Emilio. I'm sure we'd all like to know who this 'mystery' person is." Jimena sarcastically says.
I feel my stomach turning and my blood turns cold.
"Uh-"
I slam my shot glass down on the table cutting Emilio off.
"It's getting late. This has been fun but I really need to get to bed," I stand up from the bed, "Baby, you coming?"
Boggi looks up at me then at the crew before us.
"Yeah, if you want me to." He shrugs.
"Yes, yes I want you to." I grab his hand and he gets up.
He greets them all in Spanish and I quickly drag him out of the room and down the hallway to ours.
I can't believe what just happened. Did Emilio tell Jimena about us?
I can't let Boggi know now, not like this.
"Hey, is everything okay?" Boggi asks me.
"Everything's just fine."
We then reach our bedroom. I open it with the keycard and we enter the room closing the door behind us.
My breaths are heavy and I place my hand up to my forehead. It was burning up.
"Are you feeling fine? You don't look too good." Boggi walks up to me.
"Yeah, I think it's just that shots, it's making my stomach turn."
"Maybe a warm shower will make you feel better?" He suggests.
"Maybe..."
