The vacation had gone by in a whirlwind. I had found a friend.....something more in Christopher.

I know I should guard my heart.

He hurt me once and he could damn well do it again.

But I can see how he's changed.

He's not the hurt bully he was before.

This person, he's a man and a fine one at the same.

I'm in the recording studio, watching the boys rehearse. The other boys and I are now civil.

I close my eyes as I hear Christopher sing

"Estas con él
Y yo aquí
Tratando de hacerte sonreír
No dice nada, ay ay ay
Pero tus ojos me hablan"

His voice is like butter, smooth and rich.

Listening to the band sing has probably been my favorite part of Aruba.
It's like hearing angels sing.
My phone rings. It's Katlyn.
"Hey"
"EMERGENCY! The makeup artist's sister is in the hospital so she won't be able to come on the day of the wedding and...."
"Kat" I say. My best friend has a serious case of bridal nerves "Breathe"
My best friend audibly sucks in a breath.
"Good. Now what were you saying?"
"The makeup artist can't make it"
"Okay"
"That's all you've got? Okay?!" My best friend is practically hyperventilating.
"I'm coming over. Wait" I hang up and look up to see Christopher smiling at me amusedly.
"Girl problems?"
"Yeah, do you mind?"
"Not at all"
He bends down and kisses me. I freeze. We're trying to keep our relationship on the DL.
I look behind me to see the boys and Renato all looking at us with similar expressions of shock.
Except Joel, who's smirking
"I knew it" He declares.
"Oh piss off" I mutter as I start to walk away.

Katlyn is a mess when I reach the penthouse.
I pass her a mug of green tea and sit down.
"Babe, you know, there's a million makeup artists in the wo...."
"That was Tina Djorviak , she's one of the best ones" Kat wails "No one can do the iconic looks that she wants"
"Hey, look at me" I grab her hands "This wedding ain't about how you look. You're marrying the love of your life, K"
I smile, partly jealous because my best friend gets her happy ever after.
"Wait" Her eyes light up "You could do the makeup!"
She jumps up.
"I-Are you sure? I'm no professional" I say.
"You're bloody amazing at makeup. It'll be perfect!" She bounces.
"Um,okay" I smile.
Before I leave, she calls out "How much do I owe you?"
I turn, smiling "Nothing"
I'll do anything to see the people I love happy.
