We had fun for the next two days with Justin and we were happy we could do this for him, we flew back to New York while he continued his tour by going to Canada. We also attended Michael concert in California the following week, attended Ava's exhibition with Mils where Ameer met an artist who also turned out to be gay.
The past weeks was great and filled with getting to support friends and families which was something wonderful, although our parents rarely stay at home Ameer and I gave each other with the combination of Ava, Mils and Lucian who is now Ameer's boyfriend shocking right, it's always fun making gest of them and it's obvious they love each other which brings me to the funny feelings I feel anytime Lorenzo calls. I noticed I am always eager to see his calls and I feel hurt when he doesn't, I feel all mushy inside when we talk or when he sends gifts when I told Justin about it all he said was "it seems Lorenzo wins this time" when I asked him what he meant he said I was in love with Lorenzo which I denied for almost a week before I came to agreement after lots if teasing from Ava and Mils but I wasn't going to tell him that.
I was woken by my ringing phone, I picked it up without looking at the caller "hello" I said still half asleep hoping the caller will understand my situation and call back "bambina, sorry for waking you up love" I heard Lorenzo say at the other side making me fast awake with my heart beating fast and wild, "it's fine, is there a problem?" I asked him sitting up right "My club will be playing today and I want you to be there, I have sent someone to pick you up and he should be there in an hour time" he said confidently bringing a silly smile on my lips immediately, "I won't be coming alone you know, that right?" I inquired getting up from my bed to my closet "the others are aware and are getting prepared as we speak," he responded making me stop my search for a luggage "can you please include me in any of your plans as you do to the others before it becomes urgent for me?" I requested before hanging up and switching off my phone feeling angry at him immediately.
I felt betrayed which I don't know why, I have never felt this in my life and it was hurting me really bad. I know he was a dominant person who commands respect anywhere he goes but I should not be left out in decisions he makes that involves me, he told the rest earlier so they don't have to rush packing up and getting ready while me on the other hand have to start running round to pack my luggage I don't even know how long we will be staying now I am blaming my stupid anger and messed up feelings all thanks to my menstrual cycle, I needed someone to vent my frustration on and there was no better person than my twin who I am certain knows about this and didn't inform me that made me feel more betrayed because he knew how I feel about Lorenzo and I wanted to look perfect for him.
Banging on his door rapidly brought Nanny, some maids, some bodyguards and even dad that I wasn't aware of his arrival out of their supposed places "Ameer you cow, open this door or so help me when I lay my hands on you," I shouted like a mad person "I love my neck, face and my jewel Ro and I plan on keeping them intact for life you pmsing lady" he shouted back from his room fueling my frustration more while I wasn't aware of my now audience who were surprise to see me behaving this way "Ameer Davies Marshall, open this door or I won't be blame for whatsoever I do" I screamed banging the door and his laughter could be heard from inside "alright, what's going on princess?" Dad asked pulling me into himself while I burst into tears now I am really pmsing, "she is on her menstrual cycle Liam" Nanny said to him as she pats my back.
"Davies get yourself out here young man," Nanny said knocking at his door which opened immediately "Dad," I heard Ameer say I heard Dad chuckle while he pulled him into our hug which ended after a while and Ameer saw my teary face "you cried because I didn't open the door, why is your period like this?" He asked pulling me into himself "I am sorry, I was only joking" he said to me. "You knew about the trip to Barcelona or not?" I questioned and he nodded confirming my suspicion "why didn't you tell me?" I asked because I know he can never keep a secret from me to safe his own life "Lorenzo" was all he said and I nodded in understanding, "So, do you guys want to tell me why my kids decide to kill each other this morning?" Dad asked after everyone has left, "we are going to Barcelona to watch Gabriel play and Lorenzo wants his good luck charm," Ameer said to him winking at me "I am not his charm," I replied immediately "Are they a thing yet?" Dad asked him pretending as if I wasn't there "Not yet dad but soon." Ameer responded to him while they walked towards the step "guys I am standing right behind you and why am I been left behind, guys wait for me," I shouted running after them.
"Why did you off your phone Ro?" Ava asked after getting off the phone with who I am sure is Lorenzo I shrug in response going back to packing my luggage after I was told we will be staying a week to watch them play twice, after following dad and Ameer downstairs for breakfast which turned out great due to the conversation going around the table with dad asking us about how we spent the past month. We told him everything including the new boyfriend Ameer has and my feelings for Lorenzo which made him smile and eager to meet Lucian, we talked about his own work also and he told us about how it's faring and all. Ava and Mils joined us after a while and as much as I wanted to be angry at them I knew I don't have to because it was Lorenzo that made them do it, our ride arrived some minutes after breakfast and I had to run upstairs to get prepared making the girls follow me.
