chapter five: "Welcome"
Movie Night
Abril and Polo arrived to the boy's house with smiles on each other's face.
The two were like two peas in a pod, Polo had Ander, Guzmán, Alejandro as friends before the young Montesinos arrived but no one connected with him the way she did. They connected very quickly and ever since she moved to Las Encinas they would try to have movie nights monthly despite what their two significant others thought because Polo and Abril both knew what they had was just a pure genuine brother-sister bond and nothing more.
Polo is Abril's other half, in Mexico the two girls never had real friends- they all stabbed her in the back and all of the boys were dogs. When she moved to Las Encinas she wanted nothing more but to find a friendship where she felt like they were each other's home and that's exactly how she felt when she met Polo.
The two would always have their moments where it seemed they weren't on good terms but that was just how they worked- they would have their off days just like any friendship but no matter what they would always have each other's backs.
Abril made her way to the bathroom after grabbing one of Polo's shirts and a pair of spandex she left at his house one night. The girl washed out her hair in attempt to get the hairspray out in Polo's very large sink, after she partly succeeded she kept her long hair down so it could dry and undressed herself and put on the clothes. Abril washed her face before walking back into Polo's room to decide on a movie.
While Polo had gone to his kitchen to grab beer, water and snacks the girl gone through the options on his tv while sitting in his desk chair pursing her lips every time she saw a movie that seemed somewhat decent.
Once Abril heard footsteps coming to the room she threw herself on Polo's bed letting out a loud sigh in hope of Polo taking over since she wasn't the best at making decisions on movies, restaurants, outfits, or honestly anything.
When Polo entered their room in just sweatpants, something most girls would swoon over but Abril had gotten used to the attractive sight in front of her- she couldn't lie and say she didn't find him attractive but she could say she could never see them as more than what they are now. She doesn't know what she would do with herself if her friendship with Polo was ruined- and she doesn't want to ever find out. She loves Polo like a brother and he loves her like a sister, which is something both of their lovers fail to understand at times.
Polo laughed at the girl's dramatic behavior and took a sip of his beer before tossing one next to the girl and sitting next to her head.
The girl placed her head in his lap batting her eyelashes at him and pouting her lips, "Can you please pick a movie?"
Polo shook his head with a chuckle, "We have a system Jo, we rotate every time. If I pick the snacks, you pick the movie, vice versa."
"But Leopoldo, there are so many options."
Polo looked down at the girl with a smirk before placing her head off of his lap and crawling on top of her.
"Abril Josefina Montesinos Hendrich... what did I say about calling me Leopoldo?"
Abril gulped before smiling at him innocently, "Too call you it because you love me so so much?"
Polo wickedly grinned before placing his hands on both sides of Abril's waist and tickling the girl. The room was filled with laughter and screams as the boy continued to tickled the girl ignoring her cries for help.
"Okay, okay, i'll stop." Abril cried out in laughter causing Polo to stop his actions and to roll off of her with a smirk.
Polo grabs the remote from the edge of his bed and scrolls through the options and comes to sight of Twilight.
The two both discovered their love for Twilight together and a few of their movie nights would consist of a marathon and constantly arguing over Edward and Jacob.
Abril personally always thought Jasper Hale was the hottest of them all but she sailed on the Jacob boat while Polo was all for team Edward.
Polo sent a smirk at Abril causing her to smirk back. The two were both well aware they were lucky it was a friday night or else they would be exhausted and would have a terrible hangover.

Once Abril had woken up snuggled into Polo's side she looked at her phone to see several messages from Lu, Alejandro, and one from Guzmán. Abril than saw it was two in the afternoon causing her to lightly chuckle before climbing out of Polo's bed and taking his pair of slippers and making her way to the kitchen.
When she saw Polo's cook she gave her a small smile.
"Where is Andrea and Begoña?"
The cook shot the girl a small smile before getting up to stand in front of her, "They had to run a few errands but they told me to cook whatever you both please."
Abril just nodded before smiling, "Could I just have eggs and fruit? I have to head home shortly."
The older woman smiled before rushing to the kitchen to make the girl's food.
While Abril waited she grabbed a bag from the bathroom and threw her clothes from last night and took of Polo's shirt before and sliding on a red tank top she once also left there, leaving her in just nike shorts and a red tank top causing the girl to smirk at her appearance in Polo's mirror.
Once Abril finished her eggs and making sure she had everything the girl called for her driver. The girl decided to walk to a local grocery store to get picked up and to get some snacks. Once the girl grabbed cookies and grapes she got into her driver's car and read the messages.
She clicked Lu's contact first:
Get your ass to Guzmán's right now!
Where are you?
I swear if you cheat on Al with one of the scholarship kids I will kill you before Dad does.
Abril Josefina get home or to Guzmán's right now!
I'm going to kill you.
Abril just chuckled and rolled her eyes before opening Alejandro's:
Baby where are you?
Why did you let Guzmán ruin our night?
Please come back :(
Abril, you are scaring me.
Lu thinks you are cheating on me, where are you?
I'm starting to think you are cheating.
Abril, please text me.
Stop being a bitch and talk to me.
Abril's eyes widened at the last message and all of them. The girl had never seen her boyfriend get so insulting and it made her frown, he was also understanding and ever since the scholarship kids arrived his mood and behavior has changed very poorly. Abril than opened Guzmán's message with a glare, annoyed with all of their behaviors.
I'm sorry about what happened. Come back to my place your boyfriend and sister are worried sick, you aren't home so where are you?
Abril just rolled her eyes before shooting a text to Polo:
I went home but thank you for always being by my side. I love you!
Once Abril arrived home she was overwhelmed by her sister as soon as she got to her house.
"Where were you?" Lu consistently questioned her sister causing Abril's blood to fuel even more.
"I was with Polo."
Lu gasped, "You slept together?"
Abril nodded, "No, Lu! He is like my brother. When will you all get that through your thick fucking skulls!"
Lu just kept bothering her sister causing Abril to slam the door in Lu's face before rushing to her bathroom door and balcony door locking those as well.
Abril threw her phone across her room before turning on her tv and eating the snacks she had bought before sleep had taken over the girl yet again.
