“Something funny pretty boy?” he said all anger seeming to be directed at me.

For some reason I couldn’t help but smirk at him

“Yeah actually there is something funny” I replied with such cockiness that I even shocked myself.

“How about I wipe that lil smirk of ya face you cocky lil shit” he snarled as he lunged forwards his fist aimed at my face….

**** Chapter 3 ****

“Will you quite moving and just let me clean this” she said in a pissed off tone but her face told me that she wasn’t as mad as she was making out to be

“Well sorry but that stuff your putting on my face feels like acid so forgive me for moving away from you” I replied sarcasm dripping off each word

“You’re acting like such a little girl” she said as she held my chin in her hand and quickly dabbed the cotton bud on an open cut on my eyebrow making me hiss from the stinging sensation. She put a plaster over it before standing back and smiling at the good job she had done.

“I can’t believe you fought with Kai! Everyone backs down from him well apart from my brother and his friends” she said as if remembering something

“Shit” she cursed as she dug into her pocket of her jean shorts and dialled a number

“Andre, Su Layla! Necesito que venga a ronda, Kai ha sido engaٌo me acabó con él pero su tratado de golpeaba a mi vecino. Necesito que venga a ronda necesito su apoyo!” she said into the phone as she spoke fast her voice slightly cracking, I could tell that she wanted to cry but she was trying to keep it all in. she paused as she listened to whatever the person on the other end of the line was saying

“okey, hasta pronto. Adios” she quickly put her phone back in her pocket and let out a shaky breath.

For some reason I felt the strongest urge to comfort this women that I didn’t know I reached out and held her hand, she jumped but she didn’t let go of my hand

“Are you okay?” I asked my voice barely above a whisper

“Sorry, yeah I’m okay. Errrmm that was my brother I just basically told him what happened with Kai cheating and then attacking you, I asked him to come over I really need my big bro right now. His my only support right now” she said as she took a step back letting go of my hand that instantly felt cold

“Oh ermm okay, well I think I’ve missed my appointment now so I can stay with you until your brother comes or I can leave you if you’d prefer to be left alone?” I asked feeling slightly unsure of what she wanted.

“You can stay its fine, what appointment did you have Im really sorry you got caught up in my mess” she said sighing

“It’s fine don’t worry my life wouldn’t be a life if there wasn’t some kind of drama happening in it right now” I chuckled as I thought about all the trouble I seem to be attracting since the death of my dad.

“You want something to eat? I just finished cooking and I got to make more my brother always has the guys with him and they are always hungry.” She said with a smile on her face.

I thought about it for a second and thought it might be fun to have some younger company; you never know I might make friends with her brother and make more friends around here.

“Sure” I replied as I followed her around the kitchen as she took out ingredients

“What would you like me to do?” I asked politely

“Sit down and chill I can handle the food muchacho bonito” She said with a smirk

“Are you going to tell me what that means or am I meant to guess?” I asked with a raised eyebrow

“Shush” she replied to which I laughed at

An hour later I sat in the living area of Layla’s apartment as she talked about her and her now ex Kai. She told me that he had cheated on her with what she had thought had been a close friend and that her friend was pregnant with his child.

Layla was 24 years old 25 in two months’ time, she was Latino her mum was originally from Argentina and her father was Puerto Rican. She loved to cook and told me that her brother used to do barbering and still did all his boy’s hair so he could do mine free of charge for helping her out if I still wanted my hair cut today.

I sat and talked to Nate about where my family was from and why he was over here he had told me that he was British but had decided to come over to the US to complete his final year at university. I couldn’t help but feel comfortable when I spoke to him. I was glad that he had been the neighbour to save me from what could have been a big blow up with Kai he really handled himself well.

 There was a knock at the door that caught our attention stopping our flowing conversation. I quickly stood up and peaked through the spy hole before stepping back and opening the door with the biggest grin on my face.

“About time” I said as I hugged my big brother Andre.

He pulled me back and held me at arm’s length “You okay little sis?” he asked with a serious face

“Yeah I’m fine! Nate kept me company while I waited for you” I replied whilst nodding in Nate’s direction

He looked over at Nate; I could tell that he wasn’t 100% about him, Nate gave Andre a small smile and nodded a hello.

He ignored his hello and turned back to me “Están usted seguro que usted puede confiar en él (Are you sure you can trust him)” he asked in Spanish, something Andre always did when he was around someone new.

“Sí Andre! Stop being paranoid” I said already getting bored and breaking out back into English again

A small chuckle left his lips as he stepped aside and let three of his boys come into the apartment, each of them nodding a hello as they entered.

“Something smells good sis what’s cooking” he said with the biggest grin plastered in his face

Before I had a chance to say anything he was turn on his heels and making his way over to Nate holding out his hand in a friendly gesture

“Hey sorry I’m Andre Layla’s big brother, you must be Nate?” he asked as Nate shook his hand

“Hey yeah I’m Nate, nice to meet you” he replied in that sexy British accent… wait sexy? What am I thinking I thought to myself?

I moved to the kitchen and let the guys talk, once all the plates were set I called them all in and sat down to eat, This should be interesting….
