MateoToday was Marcello’s pre-wedding day; he called it a trial wedding, and it had been almost an entire week since Zia had moved out of our house, and I struggled to sleep. I struggled to do anything. And that was why, like a creep, I would sneak into her room and watch her sleep.Why did I care what she thought of that prick Drew? He hurt her, and I was still protecting his image that she knew. I was just like him; if this continued, then I had a hand in him drugging her.Damn.“Mateo,” Luis whispered, and I grunted in response as I pushed myself harder. “I think he isn’t breathing anymore,” he said, and I shook my head.“No, he’s pretty much alive. Then she would have a deeper reason to be mad at me,” I grunted as I dropped the guy in my hands. “I mean, it would make sense if he were dead, right?”I turned to look at Luis, and he grimaced as he stared at me.“Where is he?” I asked as I placed my bloodied hands on my waist.

I grunted in pain as I pushed the blanket off my body, slowly swinging my legs to the side of the bed as I got up.“What are you doing?” I lifted my eyes and noticed Luis standing by the door, with his arm held up by a sling.“That’s your only injury?” I asked as I pushed mysel

ZiaIn a year, things had quickly changed, while others remained the same.A year had quickly passed, faster than I had expected. Soon, I completed my preceptorship, and I was in my third year of nursing school. I still had the same friends, except for Drew. He had somewhat disappeared, and not even Malik knew where he was.Everything seemed so different and peaceful."Oh, please, you can suck my balls!" Or so I thought."We both know you're the only one of the two of us who knows how to suck. Geez, you're so annoying." Luis spat back, and Tania snorted. A frustrated groan left my lips as I listened to Luis and Tania argue for the umpteenth time today. I leaned my head against my hand as their back-and-forth bickering increased. It was a pretty dramatic switch from being so affectionate with each other, and then suddenly they became enemies... again!All this from a pregnancy scare, and time was not the solution. A year had passed, and they were still at each other's throats about i
