She looked stunning in her baby blue gown, the plunging neckline made him uncomfortable and the wisps of her pixie cut hair which brushed the back of her neck gave him the urge to go out and drag her back and hide her from the prying eyes of the world, but the hopeful smile she sent him when she stepped off the grand staircase still lingered in his mind. He could see the hint of insecurity in her eyes and the nervousness in the hands that constantly ran down the front of her dress, smoothing out invisible creases. As much as he wished he was the lucky man who would get to place his hand on the small of her back tonight, he knew he was one leg short and all out of luck, so he had to settle for watching her approach the sleek black Mercedes Benz which no doubt held a man he was insanely jealous of. As she disappeared from his sight, into the dark car,

“Hey… Can I join you?” Amaya’s voice broke her from her angry thoughts, she was surprised to see the youngest sibling standing beside her. She was the last person she was expecting, especially given the fact that Maya didn’t seem to be her biggest fan. “Sure.” The young woman took a seat on the bench beside her and pulled her knees up to her chest before leaning back to look at the star-littered sky.

Andrew landed in London early on Monday morning against his better judgment. He was split between the need to leave Amaya be, or fix their “relationship” for the sake of his friendship with her brother.

Andrew’s flight was leaving in two hours, but the thought of walking out on her without so much as a word didn’t settle well with him, so against the voices in his head screaming for him to take the elevator all the way down to the lobby, he stepped off on the floor her room was on.He sucked in a deep breath and knocked at the door. Glancing at his watch, he cringed when he saw that it was 3 am, she wouldn’t be thrilled about being woken up, she was a beast when woken prematurely. She opened the door with sleepy yet deadly eyes, which much to his surprise, lit up when they landed on him and dropped to sadness when she saw the bag beside him. “Andrew, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?” She eyes the bag cautiously, wrapping her arms around herself tighter as
