Ivan's pov

Emilio, Boggi and Jimena were somewhere around in the house where I just sat alone at the dining table with my phone in my hands.

I was bored ever since Boggi had dropped Mia at home a few moments ago.

Then there's a knock at the door.

Thinking nothing of it, I get up because I was the closest and walked over to the front door to open it.

My eyes go big when I see...

(Imagine the conversation between them are in Spanish)

"Aaron? What are you doing here? I mean, I wasn't expecting you." I say in surprise.

Aaron chuckles, I notice a suitcase in his one had and a backpack on his back.

"Yeah, just like you weren't expecting Jimena, huh? Is she here by the way?" Aaron motions inside the house.

"Uh, yeah yeah, she is. Come inside." I give way from the door so Aaron could come inside.

"I really wasn't expecting this, honestly. Does Emilio know about this?" I ask him.

"Yeah, he helped me and Jimena surprise you all, just like you guys surprised us in Mexico."

I then wrap my arms around Aaron in a  tight embrace.

"It's good to see you again, my friend." I say in his shoulder.

"It's good to see you too."

"Aye! Amigo!!" We hear Emilio shouting from the staircase.

We then see Jimena run down the staircase to jump into Aaron's arms.

What is it with her and jumping on people? I thought to myself.

Emilio then walks down the stairs towards us.

"Did you do all of this?" I ask Emilio.

"Yes, yes I did. I'm fucking brilliant aren't I?" Emilio replies.

Aaron and Jimena laughs at him but I gather them all into a group hug.

"Family's finally back together." I say in the group hug.

After getting Aaron settled into our home we all decided to go out for dinner and Boggi told us about this place he wanted to take us to. We were still curious as to what place it was but we were cool with a little surprise.

We all hopped in the car, Jimena rushed passed everyone to climb into the passenger seat where Emilio would be driving and Aaron and Boggi had sat beside me in the backseat where I was in the middle.

We were on the road currently to the restaurant. Everyone made small talk only Boggi was quiet and looked outside of the window all the time.

I wasn't bothered by it, that's just how Boggi is.

I did feel quite tense being in the middle of two hot guys beside me...

No! What are you thinking? You not gay. I kept telling myself.

I looked to my right and Aaron looks back at me with those warm chocolate brown eyes. He gives me a small smile which I instantly return but he continues to go onto his phone.

I then feel my fingers brush up against Boggi's hand that was in between us on the seat. I look down at the contact then back up at Boggi to see if he noticed it.

He does when he looks down at me with a small smile.

I didn't want to make things awkward so I turn my eyes away from him to look ahead of me only to see Emilio staring at me in the rearview mirror but looks back on the road again.

When we finally got to the resturant, Boggi walked alone behind us all, said he wanted to take a few pictures for his Instagram while Aaron and Jimena walked ahead of me and Emilio.

Emilio then pulls me to the side gently.

(pretend they having this conversation in Spanish)

"Hey, brother. You okay?" He asks me softly.

"I'm fine, thank you."

"You seemed a little bit tense in the car. I'm your twin, I pick up these things."

I look at the ground, kicking random pebbles to the side with my feet.

"Listen, if anything is bothering you, just know I'm here to talk. You know you can tell me anything."

I stop in my tracks to look at him.

"I know that." I throw myself at him to hug him, which he does back, "Thanks."

"Anytime." He says after we pull apart.

Mia's pov

I've been at home for a few hours now. I spent time with dad watching movies till the sun had almost set.

I was currently cuddled up on the sofa with a blanket wrapped around me. I look over at dad who had fallen asleep on the other sofa.

I pull my phone out and head onto Instagram.

Only to see a picture that made my blood turn cold.

Boggi had posted a picture with Jimena.

Not just any picture. It looked as if they were alone. At the place he took me, said it's a place he goes to think.

He took Jimena to the lake.

And to think I thought it would be our place.

I felt myself choke up. I didn't want to make a sound so I clamp my mouth with my hand, trying to keep in my sobs as tears roll down my cheeks.

I knew something like this would happen.
