Tour was officially over.
As much as you loved your fans, you were so grateful to finally get a break. You and the girls worked so hard for the past few months. Touring nonstop, seeing different cities. It was an amazing experience that none of you would ever trade in the world.
You guys loved your eyekons. They always showed up and showed out.
It had been about two weeks since tour had ended. The enjoyment of no interviews. No promos. No photo shoots. Just a wave of relief.
You were stretched out on the couch while Daniela laid on your chest, curled into your side on the couch like she belonged there. One of your hands rubbed small circles up and down her arm absentmindedly.
Across the room, Sophia and Manon scrolled through movies to watch on Netflix.
Lara and Yoonchae argued back and forth, leaving Megan to watch dying laughing.
Shaking your head with a quiet laugh, you pulled Daniela impossibly closer.
âTheyâre ridiculousâ you mumbled.
Daniela giggled nodding her head.
This causes Manon to look away from the tv, eyebrow raised like sheâs about to say something to get on your nerves .
âAwww look at the little lovebirds, guysâ she says with a smirk.
Daniela freezes burying her face into your chest.
While Sophia shakes her head mumbling âcuteâ before turning her attention back to the tv.
âLOOK AT MY SHIP SAILINGâ Megan yells from the floor. Yoonchae and Lara egg on her antics with âoooooouuuusâ making kissing sounds.
You flip them off with your free hand.âDonât piss me offâ you mutter, brushing it off like itâs nothing.
Ignoring or at least you try your best to ignore the way your stomach flutters with the sudden attention on you two.
Manon jumps up from where she's seated and practically plops down in your lap causing Dani to groan.
âAwww come on y/n donât be like that. You know I like to just poke fun.â She says with a shit eating grin.
You roll your eyes with a huff. âYeah yeah umm so like youâre practically suffocating us right now Manzâ you gesture to a grumpy looking Dani still tucked under your arm.
Manon's face forms into a pout. She brings her arms pulling you guys as close as she can which doesnât look the best. Pulling you guys into a hug she grumbles âawwww donât be like that, you too are my babiesâ
âActually theyâre my babies the fuckâ Sophia calls out she looks almost offended remote in her hand, movie long forgotten.
Manon pulls back from you both now standing up. âOh donât start with me. I said what I said!â
They start to bicker back and forth.
You catch Laraâs gaze which causes her to give you a knowing look. You smile shyly shrugging your shoulders. She shook her head with a small laugh. Turning her attention back to a now grumpy looking yoonchae and hyper megan whoâs yapping about why sheâd be a perfect spiderman dupe.
âMaybe we should leave them to it, yeah?â You whisper to Daniela. She nods, standing up first, then pulling you up. The girls stop talking after seeing this. They all share knowing looks.
âDonât stay up too lateâ Sophia says.
âWeâre literally on break,â Yoonchae says with a straight face.
Manon falls over dying of laughter. Megan jumps on her back now cackling too.
âYou guys are practical children,â Lara says laughing.
âVery much so, goodnight guys weâll see you in the morningâ Sophia says softly.
You both bid everyone a goodbye in the midst of the chaos now headed to Danielaâs bedroom which so happens to be across from yours.
Stepping foot into her room you hop the bed making yourself comfortable against the headboard.
Closing the door softly behind her, Dani crawls up and plants herself against your chest once again.
Thereâs a comfortable silence that lingers in the air. One youâve both experienced more than you can recall. Late night talks, cuddles and so much more.
I think it was fair to say you both knew how you felt about each other.
Though you both never acted on those emotions, everyone could see how locked in you were.
âHow are you when you like someone? Like,really like them?â
You stop rubbing her arm caught off guard by the question.
It takes you a moment to come up with an answer not wanting to say too much.
âWellâ you clear your throat softly. âIâd like to think Iâm a complete idiot when I really like someoneâ
She looks up from your chest, smiling.
âNot like a dumbo, obviously but like a hopeless idiot. Like Iâd do anything for that person. Like itâs clear as day to everyone else.â
You continue rubbing her arm softly.
âI feel as though they'd see a side of me that most donât.â
âA side I donât really show.â
You end, meeting her eyes.
Hand gliding up and down her arm in soft motions. She bites her lip, in quiet thought taking in what you just said. You take this time to look over her face. Her hair is down, fresh face no make up, snuggled up in your hoodie she stole from you plus sweatpants.
Youâd never openly admit out loud how down bad you were for her. Although the girls knew, they decided to keep it on the hush hush, teasing you from time to time. You would peep Daniela blushing or muttering quick ârelax yall itâs not like thatâ but in your heart you knew otherwise. You didnât mind it though.
âAm I one of those people?â she asks quietly.
You watch her eyes move down to your lips.
You unintentionally lick them.
The tension in the air shifted.
If either of you leaned in, it would be a done deal.
Instead, she lets out a quiet breath.
âGlad to be one of the lucky ones thenâ
âWouldnât call you luckyâ
You grab her wrist before she can hit you again.
âOkay OW. You didnât let me finish what I was trying to say.â
âI wouldnât call you lucky,â you say softly.
âIâd say youâre special, Dani.â
âAwww, Y/n stop youâre gonna make me cry,â she says, sitting up, covering her face.
You pry her hands from her face, leaning closer.
âDonât cry daniiiiiiâ you say tease.
A small smile tugs at your lips.
âYou know I love you.â
More than sheâll ever know.
She stares at you, pout long gone.
âI love you more.â she says softly, pulling you into a hug.
Pulling back from the hug, she looks at you with a soft smile.
âNow go get some rest,â she says. âYouâve got somewhere to be tomorrow.â
You sit up, rolling your eyes as you slide off her bed.
âI still canât believe youâre not coming with me. Like, itâs literally THEE BAELANI concertâ you emphasize, eyes widening since youâre dramatic as hell.
âI know, but I just wanna bed rot. And youâll tell me all about it anyway.â
She pauses for a second before adding,
âI mean technically you wonât be there aloneâŠâ
âYouâll have a security guard with youâ she finishes, failing to hold back her laugh at the look on your face.
Your expression drops instantly.
âYou know what, GOODNIGHT DANIELA.â
You turn on your heel, shaking your head, a small smile tugging at your lips.
âGoodnight!â she calls after you.
*********************************************
You found yourself outside the concert venue. Bodies packed outside, multiple people taking, pictures,laughing amongst themselves and screaming in excitement about seeing Kehlani. The sight of it all made you smile.You were kind of bummed Daniela didnât wanna come with you but you promised her and the girls youâd be careful and have fun. She said sheâd wait up for you too.
Flashback to before you left the house
Dressed up, ready for the concert, you stand in the living room. The girls were all sitting on the couch yapping and on their phones.
Hearing you come into the room , manon is the first to speak up. Whistling she smirks at a dazed Daniela.
âOkaaay Y/n, donât come back with a girlfriend yeahâ she laughs bumping a now unamused Daniela.
Sophia fails to hold in her laugh, covering her mouth but it doesnât come out muffled.
Yoonchae sits up raising an eyebrow âUnnie why are you going to the concert alone?â
Before you can respond Megan jumps in âYeah I could have sworn Dani told me she was-â
Sheâs cut off by Dani jumping across the couch to cover her mouth.
You stand there confused yet amused.
âDANIELA!â Megan screams squirming off the couch now on the floor trying to catch her breath.
All eyes were on a red Daniela who was looking anywhere but at you.
You laugh lightly reminiscing.
You step out of the van as your security guard stood close. Knowing you were gonna get recognized by some fans. He knew he didnât have to worry too much about you unlike your other member, Manon whoâd always give the guards a run for their money.
âReady Ms. Y/ln ?â he asked
You nod, now walking towards the entrance of the venue.
Being stopped along the way by a few fans, taking a few photos and bidding them a quick goodbye given your security guard looked like he was gonna strangle one of the fans.
âAlright guys I gotta go guys! I love you!â you shouted being guided to entrance
âOh my god Y/n Y/ln said she loved us!â
âIâm gonna pass the fuck outâ
âSheâs hotter in personâ
Now inside you guys head to the VIP area. You knew youâd probably see a few fans and some celebrities in the section. Kehlani had yet to come out so everyone was just vibing listening to the music they were blasting throughout the arena.
After getting your pass, your security guard is glued to your side. You conversed with a few celebrities, some fans who wanted more pictures. You must have not been paying attention to where you were walking, you feel a small body collide into your chest.
Arms reach out to grab them out of reflex. Lord behold itâs thee Sabrina Carpenter now in front of you. Wow sheâs gorgeous in person.
âOh my god im so sorryâ she says balancing herself slightly staring at you due to the height difference.
You smile shaking your head now retracting your arms â No youâre good itâs my fault. I almost tackled you to the floorâ you laugh and she giggles too.
She stares a bit longer than usual, a small smile on her face.
âMs Sabrina Carpenter herselfâ
âIn the flesh babyâ she shoots back playfully.
You rock back and forth on your heels, grinning like crazy.
She bites her lip and nods her head towards your security guard.
âYour date or chaperone?â She jokes.
Laughing you shake your head âChaperoneâ
This earns a grunt from him. His eyes pointed straight ahead. Some people were talking amongst themselves while some had their phones out not so secretly taking videos and pictures of you guys interacting.
The lights suddenly dim and screams erupt throughout the arena.
Kehlani now stands on stage, opening the show with Next 2 U.
Screams were still heard. It was almost deafening. The energy was contagious. You bounced on your feet, as excitement filled your body. She was one of your favorite artists.
Beside you, Sabrina stood close singing, nodding to the beat, as the whole arena shook with lively energy.
Your security guard stayed close, right behind the both of you. Watching everything around you both, as the crowd roared and vibed along.
Someone bumps into you, throwing you slightly off balance. It all happened so fast.
Sabrina reacts almost instantly, grabbing your arms, pulling you closer so you donât get knocked over again.
Your eyes widen for a second before you let out a laugh.
âYo, Iâm so sorry!â someone shouts from behind you.
You wave them off with a smile.
âNah youâre all good!â
You glance back at Sabrina,now closer than you were before.
âDamn, Sabrina I keep falling into you,â you tease, leaning in so she can hear you over the music.
âFeels like a sign from the gods above.â
Her hands are still on your arms.
Yours sat comfortably at her waist to keep yourself from falling on your ass.
She raises an eyebrow, clearly amused.
Tilting your head slightly, you donât say anything, waiting for her to speak.
She leans in, lips dangerously close to your ear.
âIf I didnât know any better,â she says, voice low but playful,
âIâd think you were flirting with me, Y/N.â
You pull back just enough to look at her, a smirk now plastered on your face.
Flashes go off around you, but you ignore it. At this point, they werenât even trying to be subtle anymore.
But oh boy, others definitely do.
********************************************
Meanwhile, back at the houseâŠ
Shit is about to hit the fan.
The house is somewhat quiet.
The girls are sprawled out across the living room, half watching TV, half doom-scrolling on their phones.
Megan suddenly shoots up from the floor, eyes wide, staring at her phone.
Lara flinches beside her.
âMegan! What the fuck?!â she snaps, hand over her chest.
Manon bursts out laughing from the couch, already knowing this is about to be something.
Megan shakes her head quickly.âNo, no, no, you guys need to see this. Like, right fucking now. Itâs all over Twitter.â
She scrambles forward on her knees, moving closer to the couch where everyone else is. Daniela barely looks up, hood pulled over her head.
âSee what exactlyâŠâ she mutters.
Everyone gathers around Meganâs phone.
The video starts playing.
Itâs about a minute long.
âIs thatâŠâ Yoonchae whispers, eyes widening.
Sophia and Manon immediately glance at Daniela.
She doesnât move at all.
Standing way too close to Sabrina.
Arms around each other as if you were together.
Just vibing out, as if you guys belonged together.
It looks worse than it actually was.
Manon rubs the back of her neck.
âDamnâŠ..Iâm not gonna lie, they lowkey look cute together.â
âNo, honestly,â Lara adds with a grin.
Megan nods, completely oblivious.
âI wouldnât even be mad if Y/N came home and said she liked her.â
Danielaâs gaze goes sharp.
Daggers now being thrown at Meganâs head.
Sophia notices immediately.
âAlright, you guys,â she cuts in quickly. âItâs just a video. Iâm sure itâs nothing. And even if it is, itâs probably innocent.â
âUnnie has a girlfriend now. Wow.â
Manon completely loses it, holding her stomach laughing hard.
âOkay okay! Itâs just a video, but shitâŠâ she says, wiping her eyes. âY/N definitely needs one.â
Her smirk lands directly on Daniela.
Daniela stands up abruptly.
âYou guys need to relax. Itâs just a video. Itâs nothing.â
âDamn, DaniâŠâŠitâs just a joke.â
âWhy are you so upset?â
âYeahâŠ..youâd think Y/N was your girlfriend or something.â
Daniela doesnât respond.
She just huffs, turning on her heel and walking off.
Her door slams shut behind her.
Silence falls over the room again.
Sophia crosses her arms, shaking her head.
âWay to go,â she mutters. âYou guys know how Dani feels about Y/NâŠand vice versa.â
âWe were just joking!â Megan yells out, as if Dani was still in the room.
******************************************
Daniela lays under her covers, your hoodie on,phone pressed against her chest.
Her eyes were shut, but she wasnât asleep. Breathing back to normal yet her mind kept replaying the video.
Your arms around Sabrinaâs waist.
Whispering in each otherâs ears.
Danielaâs jaw tightens, eyes slowly opening as she stares up at the ceiling.
âItâs just a damn video. Relax girl, itâs fine.â
And seeing you with someone else like thatâŠ
It makes her chest physically hurt. She knows you better than anyone else. It just makes her feel stupid for feeling this way.
Her grip tightens a bit on her phone.
Unlocking it, she stares at your contact. Sheâs stuck for a second. Thumb hesitating over the screen.
Shaking her head, she locks her phone before tossing it beside her.
âItâs just a videoâŠâ she whispers.
But it didnât feel like itâŠâŠ
***************************************
Before you know it, youâre back home.
The house is a little too quiet, the living room is empty.
The girls are probably asleep.
You make your way down the hall, stopping outside of Daniâs room before opening her door quietly.
Sheâs under the covers.
You walk over, placing a hand on her hip.
âDani, babyâŠ..you up?â you whisper.
âJust wanted to come in and say goodnight, Iâll tell you about the concert tomorrow, yeah?â
You lean down, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead.
You stay for a moment before straightening up, walking out her room, closing the door quietly behind you.
You step into your room, plopping down onto your bed.
Kicking your shoes off, you barely get comfortable before your phone pings.
You glance down at the screen and instantly smile.
Hope you made it home safely. Donât need you lying in a ditch somewhere đ
You let out a quiet laugh, typing back quickly.
Alright now. I almost fell like twice tn like fuck I might actually just be the clumsiest person everđ«©
A second later, a reply comes through.
Anywaysss goodnight, cutie âșïž
Your lips tug into a small smile.
Goodnight, Ms. Carpenter đ
You set your phone down, smiling to yourself.
Across the hall, Daniela lays awake, deep in thought, staring at the ceiling.
Youâre in the middle of getting some pajamas out about to shower, when thereâs a small knock on your door.
It opens before you can turn around.
You shake your head with a laugh. âWhatâs up Manz? Thought your ass would be asleep.â
Stepping inside, she closes the door behind her. Leaning against it, arms crossed.
âWell you thought wrong.â she says, eyebrow raised.
She pauses for a moment, like sheâs choosing her next words wisely.
âWhatâs with the look?â
She fails to hold in a laugh.
âI donât know what youâre talking about.â
âAnyways, how was the concert Casanova ?â she smirks.
âLike what's tea?â she adds now on your bed ,leaning back on her hands, waiting expectantly.
You sigh, setting your pajamas down.
âYes, motherfucker! Like what was it like? Did you have fun? Did you meet anyone?â
She wiggles her eyebrows.
âDonât piss me off, Y/n. I donât have time for the clueless shit! Come on, Iâve been in this house all day! Iâm literally living through you.â
âGod, youâre so dramaticâ you laugh, shaking your head.
âThe concert was funâŠ..and yes I did meet someoneâ you say quietly.
She sits up straight, now invested.
âBitch who?? Tell me.â
âNobody importantâ you murmur.
âThatâs actually insaneâŠâŠâ she mutters.
âYou keeping secrets now or whateverâ she shrugs nonchalantly.
âI thought we were better than this,â she fake cries.
âManon, please, â you plop next to her laughing.
âAlright alright! Iâll tell you, shit. â
âI am RELAXED the fuck, now stop dragging ass and tell me.â
Hesitating for a second you finally spit it out.
âI met Sabrina Carpenter. Nothing too crazy.â
âNothing too crazy? Sheâs literally gorgeous.â
âMhm. We were vibing. I had fun with her, got her number too.â She jumps up, causing you to flinch.
âY/n what the fuck! Look at you getting numbers and shit. Who wouldâve thought?â she cackles.
âAlright, now chillâ you say, rolling your eyes.
Manon quiets down, she humming to herself.
âYou guys must have REALLY been vibing then huh?â
You cross your arms, and squinting at her.
âWhatâs that supposed to mean, weirdo?â
âWhaaa, Iâm just saying. Must have really hit off.â
You look at her, not buying her bullshit.
âAll Iâm saying isâŠ.â she starts, tilting her head with a teasing grin,
âyou should be a bit more aware of your surroundings, Casanova. Thatâs allâ
âI AM hella aware of my surroundings.â
She looks at you, unconvinced.
âRightttt, sure you are.â
âHey! what the fuck is that supposed to mean?!â
She stops at the door, glancing at you with a look.
âYouâll find out soon, fucker. Goodnightttt.â she teases.
She cuts you off, closing the door.
âOkay so fuck me I guess.â you mumble, grabbing your things to take a shower.
*******************************************
The coffee shop wasnât too busy. It was quiet. Soft music filled the room as you sat alone, looking outside, watching people walk by.
You dig in your pocket, pulling out your phone and checking the time. Sabrina isnât here yet. Sheâs about 5 minutes late. No biggie.
Setting your phone down, you lean back in your seat, thoughts now overtaking your mind.
The past few days, Daniela has been quiet. You didnât think much of it, but ever since you came back from the concert, sheâs been acting differently.
She doesnât cuddle with you anymore. She doesnât linger in your room for late night talks. She doesnât even bother to spare you a glance when you and the girls are talking.
Itâs off putting, and you fucking hate not knowing whatâs wrong.
Itâs not like you didnât ask either.
She kept brushing you off, saying she was okay.
Seeing her like that, makes your chest ache.
You are so in love with herâŠâŠ.
you just donât understand why itâs so hard to just say it.
âHey, so sorry Iâm late! You know LA traffic is a bitch.â
You snap out of it, standing up to give Sabrina a quick hug.
What you didnât know there was paparazzi across the street, snapping a photo.
Something that would cause an uproar sooner than you knew.
Sitting back down, you wave her off.
âYouâre good. I wasnât here for too long. Oh-shit! I got you a matcha tooâ
You slide the drink out towards her with a smile.
Sabrina looks up, pouting.
âOh my god, Y/n, youâre so sweet. You didnât have to! Next time we go out, my treat, yeah?â
You nod, letting out a small laugh.
âSo, howâs things been with you?â you ask, taking a sip of your tea.
She hums, leaning forward on her palms.
âTo be honest, things have been pretty good. Iâm enjoying being on break. You know how touring can be.â
You nod in understanding.
She smiles,biting her lip before speaking again.
âSoooo, whatâs been up with you,clumsy pants?Anything new?â
âI almost fell twice! Please!â you say, throwing your head back dramatically.
That causes her to laugh out loud. She quickly covers her mouth, looking around the shop, only to see youâre the only two in there.
âOkay okay! But seriouslyâŠ.â
You pause, mind drifting back to Daniela.
Sabrinaâs expression softens, to a knowing look.
âIâm guessing thereâs someone, huh?â
Your face turns a bit red.
âI meanâŠâ Hesitating, you let it out.
âYeah. There is someone.â
She oooouus leaning forward.
âAnd do you like this person?â
You roll your eyes a bit at her teasing smile.
âI actually love them.â you admit. âIâm in love with them.â
You let out a breath you didnât realize you were holding.
âAwww, Y/n! Well do they know? And do they feel the same way?â she asks gently.
Hand now outstretched on top of yours across the table.
âTo be honest, a part of me feels like she knows,â you say quietly.âItâs Daniela, my group member.â
You pause before continuing.
âA part of me feels like she loves me tooâŠ.. but ever since the concert, sheâs been more quiet. More distant.â
Then a moment a realization hits her.
âHave you been on twitter recently?â
You scrunch up your face.
âWell thereâs a video of us going around looking quite cozy, that might explain why Daniela has been distant.â
âFuck, let me see the video.â
She pulls up the video and shows you.
You run a hand through your hair, shaking your head.
âFuckâŠ.that looks bad.â
âThatâs probably why Manon ass was being all weird. Shit, shit, shit.â
Sabrina stands,giving you a reassuring smile.
âHey itâs okay. Just go back home and clear it all up. Youâll be fine. Just keep me updated, okay?â
You follow her actions, nodding as you bring her in for a hug.
âThank you. I appreciate it. Weâll hang out soon. I gotta go profess my love.â you say pulling back with a small grin.
She laughs, patting your chest.
She pulls away with a wink, before heading out the shop.
You let out a frustrated breath.
Fuck time to go fix this.
**************************************
You rush home, slamming your car door behind you, nearly busting your ass as you run to the front door.
You see Yoonchae peeking through the window. She quickly opens the door.
âUnnie, whatâs wrong?â
You bend over, hands on your knees, trying to catch your breath. You lift a hand, signaling for a second.
The other girls hear the commotion, peeking around the corner.
âWhereâs Dani?â you wheeze out, finally standing up.
Yoonchaeâs eyes widened. She glances back at the others, who silently motion for her to answer.
âSheâs in your room.â
You take off running again, tripping in the process, but quickly getting back up.
Behind you, you hear Manon and Megan cackling.
âYou guys are so annoying,â Sophia mutters.
âMaybe we should follow her?â Yoonchae whispers.
You rush to your room, pushing the door open.
Danielaâs inside standing near your wall, looking at your pictures.
The second she sees you, her expression shifts from soft to stone cold.
She shakes her head, turning to leave.
You grab her arm, pulling her back in front of you.
âDani, wait! Please, let me explain.â
She looks at you, expression unreadable.
âI know youâve been upset with me, and Iâm sorry, okay?â
âI know itâs because of the video on Twitter. I swear, Dani, it was nothing. Someone bumped into me, Sabrina was right thereâŠ..it was just one moment that got blown out of proportion.â
You look at her, eyes pleading.
Her expression shifts slightly.
âAnd the coffee shop pictures from today?â she asks quietly. âYou guys laughing,hugging, holding hands across the table?â
You shake your head immediately, hands coming up to cup her face. She gasps softly.
âDaniela, that was nothing more than a friendly hangout. I promise you. Me and Sabrina are just friends.â
âIâm in love with you. I have been for so long. You donât understand.â
She bites her lip, eyes glossing over.
âGod damn it!â Lara groans, now crushed under Megan.
Yoonchae stands behind them, waving innocently.
Manon and Sophia linger in the doorway.
Sophia shaking her head, Manon smirking like sheâs been waiting for this.
You donât even turn around.
âCan we get some privacy?â you say, deadpan.
âUmm⊠no. We need to hear this. You guys have been dragging this shit out for way too long.â
âHonestly, itâs been painful to watch,â Sophia adds.
The others nod, from the floor.
You roll your eyes, turning back to Daniela, giving her a small nod.
âI⊠Iâm in love with you too.â
You lean in, pressing a soft kiss to her lips.
Whistles erupt behind you.
âItâs about damn time!â
âHEY! No tongue kissing!â
You pull away slightly, laughing under your breath.
âSo, unnie⊠Sabrina isnât your girlfriend?â Yoonchae asks.
You shake your head quickly.
âNo! Oh my god, weâre just friends, I promise.â
âShitâŠ.couldâve fooled me,â Manon mutters.
âOW!â she yelps as Sophia elbows her.
âI meanâŠ.they do look cute together,â Megan adds, glancing at Daniela.
âAlright, we get it,â Daniela mutters. âThey look cute together, whatever. We look better though.â
You laugh, turning back to her, hands resting on her waist.
âDani⊠Iâm sorry for hurting you. I would never do that intentionally. You know that, right?â
âIâm sorry for being distant,â she admits. âYou donât know how hard it was not to jump on you. You looked like you were about to cry.â
âOkayâŠ..cry is crazy,â you say.
âGirl, itâs the truth,â Manon adds.
âSooo⊠am I forgiven?â you pout.
Daniela rolls her eyes, biting back a smile.
âYouâre forgiven. Donât do that shit again, you hear me?â
You press a quick kiss to her lips before pulling her into a much-needed hug.
You mumble, âItâs always been you,â kissing her head.
The girls start clapping dramatically.
You turn, seeing Megan jumping up and down, gripping Laraâs shoulders while Lara looks completely over it.
Yoonchae watches, amused. Sophia just shakes her head.
âOh my god⊠and they lived happily ever after!â
âAlright, enough!â Sophia says, ushering everyone out. âLetâs move this family reunion to the living room.â
You and Daniela follow behind, your arm wrapped around her.
âSo like, Y/NâŠâ Manon starts,
âIs Sabrina single? I should definitely get her number.â
Daniela turns her head slowly toward you.
âYou have her number?â
âRelax! Weâre just friends, Manz shut your gahdamn mouth!â
âHey! I was just asking a question!â
