Natalia was in the bathroom smoking out of the window when Rebeca walked into the room. "Hey, princesa, I was looking for you"
Natalia smiled "Hey." Rebeca sat down on the bench "I was wondering if you wanted to come out with me and Nadia tonight?" Natalia put out her cigarette and smiled "She can't get enough of the nightlife already?"
Rebeca laughed "Yeah, but I think she wants to go because of a chat she had with Guzmán." Natalia scoffed "Well, I don't think I'm ever going out again."
Rebeca frowned "Why?" Natalia looked around the room making sure that no one was listening and she started to whisper "Valerio kissed me at the red party and I've been avoiding him ever since."
Rebeca looked confused "But it's just a kiss. What's the problem?"
Natalia sighed "I don't think I told you that he and I used to date. We ended up breaking up when he left for boarding school. Then I dated a boy called Tomás and he left at the start of the term.
I thought I got over Valerio but...ever since he's come back he hasn't left my mind and before he kissed me, he said that he still loves me."
Rebeca's eyes widened "Isn't he like two years older than us?" Natalia laughed "I was fourteen and he was sixteen. He wanted to wait to tell my parents when we were sixteen so that it didn't look bad."
Rebeca smiled "He must really like you, princesa." Natalia looked down "Yeah." Rebeca stood up and walked over to her "I suggest you come tonight and have fun. That might help you think straight. You can't avoid him forever, right?"
Natalia looked up and nodded "Okay, I'll meet you guys there." Rebeca smiled "Perfect. See you later." She walked out of the bathroom.

Natalia could hear the music blasting as she walked up the steps to the upstairs part of the club.
The bouncer let her in straight away but she stopped walking when she saw Valerio laughing with the waiter at the bar. Natalia tried to hide her face with her hair and quickly walked down the steps.
She saw Rebeca and Nadia sitting down and hurriedly walked over to them. Rebeca looked up from her phone and smiled when she saw her "You came."
Nadia then looked at the girl and smiled. "You look great, Natalia." She smiled at the girl "So do you. You both do."
Then a male voice was heard from behind her "Here are your drinks, ladies." Valerio placed the drinks down on the table in front of them and then looked up at Natalia "Hey."
She smiled shyly at him "Hi." Valerio stood back up "I didn't know you were coming tonight."
Natalia nodded awkwardly "Yeah, here I am." Valerio smiled and the two remained silent. He then coughed "Um, do you want a drink?"
