Laying on my bed, I remembered my last encounter with Federico and it still hurts.

Deep down in my heart I knew I didn't deserve none of that. I wasn't sure what I was worth but I knew it had to be more than how he has treated me.

My problem is that,I was attached to him and I missed him despite what he had done to me.
However I refuse to go back to him. I couldn't get the picture of him and that girl out of my brain.

When I turned over in my bed I saw a red rose on my desk and I just knew who it was.
There was no point in arguing with him anymore. He would do it regardless.

I got up and picked it up. I walked over to my window and saw him standing there watching my window. He had been like this since the incident.

He'd work yes, but from time to time he'd stand there looking up at my window like he wanted to be sure I was okay or something.

When I looked at my phone Bella and Ariana had been calling me non stop for days.

My dad comes in tries to get me out the bed but fails, he has no idea what has happened to me but he just knows I'm not emotionally capable of working.

I call Bella and Ariana and the both picked up. "Que milagro!" (What a miracle!) Bella said
"Oh honey you had us worried" Ariana frowned.
"Yeah I've been calling you and when you didn't answer I'd bombard your dads phone with phone calls. He probably blocked my number by now" I chuckled lightly.

"Yeah I know, I'm sorry. I just wanted some time to myself. But hey what if we go out tomorrow" I began thinking "Like to the mall, we can shop eat and then have a sleep over or something" they nodded over the phone.

"Let us comfort you and be there for you, we don't want you to be going through this alone" Bella said reassuring me.

"So it's a plan then! We'll see you tomorrow" Ariana confirmed and I nodded.
"Don't forget that we love you so much!" Bella said.
"You deserve much better because you are amazing mami, if he couldn't see it that's his problem get a man with better eye sight!" Ariana said gassing me up.

"He's gotta be hella blind to not see what we're seeing when we look at you"

"Take this time for yourself and get to know who you are hunny, build up your self worth" Bella encouraged me.
"You are worth more" Ariana said.
I nodded "thanks guys, I love you guys so much. I appreciate you guys for being here for me"

"It's no problem"
"What are friends for?" I smiled before we all said bye.

As the day went by I got lost in my thoughts again.

I just couldn't believe Federico embarrassed me like that. He really pisses me off.

Sadly he's all the love I know though. Where's my mom? And my dad? Spoils me with everything to make up for lost time. I love my dad. He's my world. I just don't feel the love I used to feel. All this just makes me remember the pain I have deep inside my heart. As it resurfaces so do the tears.

I wiped my tears and then I heard someone singing. I got up and walk towards my glass door. I opened it and walked out on the balcony. I realized that it was Milo. He was singing 'let me love you' from Mario. I rolled my eyes but I couldn't help but blush a little. He knew just how to make me do that and laugh.

"What are you doing?" I asked him but he kept singing. For a moment I couldn't help but feel so special. Nobody ever sang to me before. This was the sweetest thing someone had ever done for me. Not even Federico.

"Every night, doin' you right
You're the type of woman (deserves good things)
Fist full of diamonds (hand full of rings)
Baby you're a star (I just want to show you, you are) You should let me love-love-love-love"

Perplexed as to what was going on, I see his eyes open wide and he kicked something and I realized it was the radio.

Opening my eyes in surprise I understood what was going on. I facepalmed myself but I couldn't help but laugh. "Don't lie .. I sang the shit out of that song" He said smirking. I grabbed my teddy bear and threw it at him. He laughed at me. "Well, you don't have to be so ungrateful"

"Now bring me back my teddy bear" I said to him. He did a doubletake "Well you threw it down so, I'm not bringing it back up. I'm off the clock." I scoffed at him.

"I'm in my pajamas" He shrugged.

"Nothing to do with me" He responded.

I turned off and ran down quickly.
I was going to show him.

Milo pov

She came down fuming. Which was funny cause the maid was scared and was asking her what was wrong as she was coming down the stairs.

The funniest thing happened but it's really not funny. She tripped over the rug and fell.
I was really concerned. I really was.
When she got back up, I heard her yell "leave me alone Delvina I'm fine!"
"What's that rug doing closed up like that?! Fix it!" Maybe that will humble her on the way out.

When she reached by me, she huffed while I scanned her for any bruises. When I saw her knee was red. I was really concerned, touching her knee to see if it hurts, she slapped my hand away. "Oww" she winced in pain. "Don't touch me"
I raised my hand in defense. "I was trying to see if I could help ease the pain"

She rolled her eyes "that's none of your concern" she folded.
"Well, it kind of is my concern, cause you were coming down to meet me so" I lifted her up and held her bridal style. She started screaming and fighting me.
"Will you stop fighting me? You're going to make the knee worse"
"Where are you taking me?!" She asked while still fighting me.

"If you keep fighting me, I'll drop you" I attempted to just to scare her and she held on to me tight "no no okay" she said frantically.

That's what I thought. Smiling internally because I was able to tame her.

"There's this part of the garden that has herbs that can help relieve the pain in your knee" I explained. When I finally reached, I placed her on the bench and went for the herbs.
I had a bottle of water with me, so I just wet her knee a little bit and placed the moist herbs on her knee. I didn't have anything to keep it down so I just took my jacket off and took my shirt off too.

"What are you doing?" She covered her eyes. "That's not necessary" I chuckled at her response to me taking my shirt off.
"Why are you acting like you ain't never seen me with my shirt off?" She was turning red although she refused to look me in the eye.

I wrapped my shirt around her knee and when I was done, I put my jacket back on because truth be told it was cold.

I lifted her up again and held her bridal style. "By tomorrow you'll barely feel a thing"

She was quiet on the way back. She was in thought and from time to time I would see her watching me out of the corner of my eyes. When I turned my head to watch her, she would turn her head.

Although she had me prohibited to come in the house I still walked in and to my surprise she had nothing to say about that.

I opened the door to her room and I placed her gently on the bed. She was staring at me "you didn't have to do all this"
"But I felt like I needed to" I answered. She smiled a little bit. I touched her cheek. I loved seeing her smile. Seeing her laugh. She is the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

I saw the rose I gave her this morning. I picked it up and placed it in her hair. "Sweet dreams"
She was still quiet and smiling lightly. I picked myself up off her bed and found my way out the door before her dad walked in the house and I get myself in problems.

Franchesca POV

I felt my cheek where he touched me. I felt this feeling in my chest that I hadn't felt in a long time.
Nobody has ever done something like that for me. He took the time out to do that and gave up his shirt. He was so nice to me. Kind. Gentle. Sweet. I couldn't help but stare at him. He was just so different. Annoying sometimes but different. A good kind of different.

I fell asleep that night feeling so special.

I woke this morning and my knee was barely hurting. He was right it didn't hurt as much. The pain was almost gone.

I took a shower and got ready because I was supposed to meet the girls today. I peeped through the window to see him staring up at my window.
I blushed a little. He was so sweet sometimes. I was beginning to feel things for him. It was so annoying cause he's not my class.

I went down to meet him and this time I was careful. I met him outside on the grass. "Good morning" he said smiling as he put out his right hand with my usual red rose. I smiled in return "Thank you"

"How's your knee?" He broke the trance I was in. "Umm, you were right! it's better, thank you" he nodded "I'll have the maids wash the shirt and bring it back for you." He shook his head. "Nah it's all good, don't worry about it"
"Are you sure?" He shook his head again. "Nah it's okay"
"Cause I don't know if that was your favorite shirt-"
"Nah, you good you good"
"Okay well I gotta go, thanks again" I said walking away. "No worries" he waved goodbye.
