The family De los Santos were all together and eating the pasta that Sofia had made, everyone had welcomed Aitana inside of the family with open arms. Each and every one of them was just happy for Andorra and Aitana that they could be open and public about it.

Louis was also slowly recovering after the hurt that Oliver had inflicted on him and everyone was actually laughing on this particular evening, enjoying the amazing pasta and having small talks all over the place. Aitana found herself a seat besides Andorra and the two of them laughed together, a lot. Their gazes meeting and finding each other as joy, warmth and above all, love filled their hearts. Only the blind wouldn't be able to see the love that this new couple harbored for each other and Andorra's brother, mother and father couldn't help but be happy and prideful over their daughter. 

Despite the hardships that she has had to face up until now, she found herself someone to love. Something of which Andorra herself hadn't known that she was able to do after Selina. Her first heartbreak always had an incredible impact on her and part of her would always love Selina and be reserved for her but the fact that Aitana listened to her darkest times and still accepted all of her, it just meant how much the goalie meant to the midfielder and vice versa. 

When dinner was over, the family joined together in the rather spacious living room to enter the wondrous world of Harry Potter on the flat-screen TV. Andorra and Aitana cuddled up together on the couch, Andorra's knee being propped up by one of the many pillows as Aitana rested her head on the goalie's chest, Aitana's arm wrapped around Andorra's waist as she was amazed, but not surprised with Andorra's ability to talk and quote along with the movie and the script. When they paused the movie to get some drinks and snacks, Aitana sat up and looked at Sofia and Hernandez. "What do you guys do for work? I'm sorry that I never asked."

"That's alright dear. I am actually the owner of Microsoft and my husband is a surgeon." Aitana's mouth fell open as Louis returned with glasses. "That's actually so cool. My dad always wanted to run a big business. It must be a hard and busy life though."

The older woman nodded her head. "Yeah, it's a busy life. It was hard to raise these two rascals. I was barely around when they were younger but now I got more people for me so they take more of my workload and I'm able to work from home more, I like to think that it made me a better mother." Andorra couldn't help but roll her eyes but at the quick glare from Hernandez, she kept her comment to herself while Louis replied for the both of them. "It was nice to have one parent at home." No one had expected Louis to say something like that. Ever since they were young, Andorra had been the one with the snarky remarks.

The tension in the air grew with that comment and Andorra's grip on Aitana tightened slightly, the youngest out of everyone speaking up. "How about we don't use Harry Potter time to talk about this? All that matters is that you guys are at home now when it matters the most and you're here to support us. Now, each and every one of you knows how much I love this shitty little wizard boy so let's continue the movie. Thank you for the drinks Louis."

Louis looked at his sister, setting the glasses down and then opened his mouth to say something but Andorra was quicker. "You may be older and you might be the one to take over mom's business but I said that's enough. We have to put everything behind us at some point and just appreciate what we have." Louis scoffed. "You didn't even know what was going on!"

Andorra gently pushed Aitana out of the way and stood up from the couch, done with Louis'bullshit as she stood with the help of her crutches and straightened her back. She was ready for this. Had been ready for this for years as her eyes narrowed. "You all just thought that I was too little to understand everything back then. Especially you Louis. But the truth is, no matter how much you tried to protect me, I felt everything. I knew everything. Yes, you were 2 years older than me. Yes, you had to deal with it for a longer period of time but don't think that I didn't know what was going on." her eyes had turned sharp and she leaned her weight on the left crutch, pointing her right crutch at her brother. "I pretended to play stupid for years. As if I never knew what happened. You were always yelling at mom and dad. Even when they were home it was never good enough for you man." She put the crutch down and now just looked disappointed. "Come on Lou. Bury this hatchet man. They are doing everything they can for us now. Why can't that just be enough?"
