Chapter 4

Meanwhile at the other table where Yvette and Nick were...

"So... tell me a bit about yourself..." Nick said

"Well... what do you wanna know?"

"I have an idea... Let's play ten questions..."

"What?" Yvette answered with a puzzled look

"It's an easy game... the only thing you have to do is answer my 10 questions. The only catch is that you can't question me, until I finish"

"Go ahead then"

"Ok! Tell me your full name"

"Yvette Marie Aviles"

"Question #2: Do you have any siblings?"

"Yes, one big bro who's married and has a cute little boy"

"Question #3: Do you have a best friend? If so name him or her..."

"Yes... 4 best friends... They are Amaya, Krystel, Carla, and Alexandra. I met Alexandra and Amaya in school when I was in kindergarten and I met Krystel 5 years ago. I met Carla in a summer camp."

"Question #4: What are your hobbies?"

"Well... I play flute, I like to sing, I like to read and I'm a big big fan of you" Yvette said flirting with him.

"Oh... How nice, Good, Very good answer..." he smiled. "Question #5: Where do you like to go when you're on vacation?"

"I don't care where. I just like to relax myself. My fave place is outside Puerto Rico or in the beach looking at the view"

"Alright... Question #6: Why are you here?"

"Amaya invited us to stay here for like two months"

"Question #7: Do you have any pets?

"I have a dog and his name is Chucky... I love him very much!" Yve said grinning.

"Question #8: Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Nope... I don't have a boyfriend..." Yve said blushing

"Question #9: Are you dating someone? "Nope"

"Question #10: Do you have a crush? If so name him and attached to that question - he took a deep breath - do you like me?"

Yvette stood there not knowing what to say... "Okay I had and still have a huge crush when I was in 9th grade... his name was Jorge and he was a senior. And why do you wanna know if I like you or not?"

"Remember the catch, you can't ask me questions until I finish"

"I'm not going to answer that last part of question #10..."

"You have to answer!"

"No I don't!"

"Yes, you have!"

"No, I don't"

"Ok, well, if you're not going to answer I'm just gonna start to tickle you!"

"AHHH! Nick, cut it off!" said Yvette laughing loudly

"Yo guys! We're going to invite the girls for dinner! Do you want to come or do you wanna stay here… ALONE?!?" said AJ looking at Nick and Yvette.

"Very funny AJ! Yvette, do you wanna go to dinner with me?"

"I would love to sir!" Yve said laughing

Just then Yve and Nick came towards the other table where the other people were sitting...

"Long time, no see huh Yve?!? Alexandra asked

"What were you doing?" Carla asked

"We were not doing anything" Yvette answered

"We?? So you were not alone?" Krystel added

"No, I was with Nick..." Yvette said blushing

"Will you guys leave her alone?" Amaya asked

"Yeah leave her alone" Nick said defending Yve

"Nicky boy has grown, finally!" Howie said

"Yeah he's a big boy now." Bri said

"Leave me alone, Will ya?!?" Nick said whining as always.

"Yeah! Leave all of them alone and let's go eat somewhere" Kev said

"Except McDonald's right?" Tell me we're not going to McDonald's again. Just tell me!" Brian whined hoping to eat in another location that wasn't McDonald's.

"That's what you think!" AJ said

"We're not going to McDonald's!" Kevin said

"Oh Kevin! But I want to eat that one and only Quarter Pounder with cheese, large fries..."

"If you wanna go to McDonald's you're going alone and walking cause we're not gonna take you there" Amaya replied in a bitchy mood.

"Who wants to go to McDonald's?!?" Nick asked

"I do! " AJ said

"I don't" Amaya said

"I don't" Yvette said

"I don't" said Nick

Eventually everyone said their opinions and none of them wanted to go to McDonald's except, of course, AJ. After a few minutes of discussion and at Amaya's suggestion, they decided on Caribbean Blues, a hit new restaurant that has live music and a very funky atmosphere. Then, the girls went upstairs to change while the guys retrieved something decent to wear from the car and changed in the downstairs bathroom.

.......................................................................

In the girls bathroom...

"Alexandra, can I borrow your green emerald tighty strappy thingy dress??? Amaya asked

"No way! that's the dress I'm going to wear!" Alexandra replied

"But remember that Howie likes purple not green..." Amaya said

Alexandra ran down to the closet, changed the dress and gave it to Amaya... Too late because Amaya changed her mind already and found what she was going to wear.

"Do I look alright?" asked Krystel worrying, as always, about her looks.

"You look fantastic!" said Carla, as she straightened up her hair.

"I wonder how the guys will look..." said Alexandra

"Yah, they probably look cute, handsome and hot! Like always..." said Amaya, smiling. "Where are the girls? They are taking a lifetime to get down here…" AJ said

"Oh ,shut up. You spend as much time as getting ready as they do" Howie said

"Look who's talking!" AJ replied.

Howie gave an embarrassed smile and shut up, for good.

"They'll probably look good..."Brian said

"But why are they taking so long?" Nick said becoming impatient

"Girls are like that. You'll get used to it... Oh, wait a sec you haven't been with one in a long time" AJ said sarcastically.

"Very funny" Nick replied flatly.

Thirty minutes later, the girls came downstairs all dressed up.

"You look terrific!" Brian said

"Thank you, Brian" said Krystel flirting with him.

"You look very good too!" Yvette said looking at Nick

"Thank you, sweetie. Can we go now? I'm hungry ya know?" Nick said with a grin.

"What are we waiting for, let's go" Carla replied

All of them walked down to the garage where Carla's Ford Runner was parked.

"Um… guys... I think that we're not going to fit... this car holds five to six people and we're ten" Carla said

"Ok.. you guys! Get inside the car... " Brian said

"Can I drive?"

"Sure" said Carla smiling.

"Thanks but I need someone who knows the way..." Brian replied.

"I know the way... I'll go with you in the front seat..." Amaya said not noticing that Krystel was looking at her with a little bit of jealousy on her face.

They all climbed into the car but they were all squished against each other. Brian and Maya took the front seats. Then in the backseat were Nick, Yvette, AJ, Alexandra and Howie in that same order and in the trunk were Krystel, Kevin and Carla. Amaya was a bit jealous of Yvette because she and AJ were squished together.

15 minutes later, they got to the restaurant. When they were seated on the table they started a friendly conversation. When the waitress came to take the order everyone ordered their food except Maya and AJ.

"Those spaghettis look good." Amaya thought "But I think I'll get the fried chicken with French fries"

"That fried chicken looks good, but I don't feel like getting my hands dirty... I'll get the spaghetti" AJ thought

"Ok..." Amaya said "I want the fried chicken with French fries"

"And I will order the spaghetti with meatballs" said AJ

When the food came they all started to eat when AJ tapped Amaya on the shoulder...

"Maya, can I take a 'lil bit of your fried chicken and the French fries?" AJ asked with puppy eyes on his face.

"Nope, I'm starving and I will not give you MY food..."Amaya said looking kinda angry "You have your own food... eat your food"

Then, they started fighting over the food but the group was unaware. Each one were engaged in their own conversation.

.......................................................................

"Yve..." Nick said "I would really like to get to know you better. You're a very nice girl" he smiled.

"Well, you are getting to know me" Yvette blushed and smiled innocently knowing where he was coming from. She was starting to feel that she liked BSB Nick but now she was starting to like the real Nickolas Carter. They continued their conversation thanking God that the other people were not paying attention.

.......................................................................

Meanwhile, Krystel and Brian were flirting with each other like they did on the terrace in the afternoon.

"So... Krystel do you have a boyfriend?" Brian asked

"No Bri, why do you ask?"

"Just wondering..."

"Yeah, right"

"I told you that I was just wondering..."

"Ok then..."

"Shit... What the hell is going on with me? What have I gotten into?" Krystel thought

.......................................................................

When it was time to pay, the guys realized that they had no money on them.

"Um... girls... I don't know how to say this but... I think we don't... have... any money on us..." Kev said a little embarrassed.

"What?!?" the girls said in unison.

"You're friggin' rich and you don't have any money on you???" Amaya asked.

The guys shrugged their shoulders and started apologizing to them. The girls looked at each other and looked back again at them with disbelief. Somehow, they managed to split the check between them, while they were laughing at the guys.

"You owe us" Krystel said

Fifteen minutes after they paid, they got in the car and squeezed themselves in.

"It's 7:30... Do you like to go somewhere else?" Howie said

"Well, since you guys don't have any money" Alexandra said teasing the guys

"how about a walk around the beach?

"Do you all wanna go?" Carla asked

"Ok let's go!" AJ added

The group headed to the beach. The sky was clear so all the stars were shining.

"How beautiful" Krystel said

"Not as beautiful as you..." Brian whispered in her ear

"Are you guys coming or not?!?" AJ asked

"Leave them alone, Alex... Don't you see they wanna be ALONE???" Amaya said

The eight people except Brian and Krystel continued walking.

"Hey! Wait up!" Brian said, dragging Krystel along with him.

Suddenly, AJ's cell rang.

"Hello? You have reached the office of Toto, Dorothy's dog. How may I help you?" AJ said with a goofy voice. "Oh yeah.. she's right here... wait a sec... Maya, it's for you... your mother..." he whispered

"Thank you, Alex... Hi, mom... yeah ,we're fine... what???...oh mom... what about us... oh ok... thanks.. ok ... I'll be good...no parties... thank you... bye..."

"What happened?" Yve asked

"Well... My parents have to return to San Juan because something happened with one of my dad's uncles... he's in the hospital and they have to go back..."

"So that means..." Alexandra said kinda sad

"That we're going back with them?" Krystel finished

"That's the best part! Mom said that if it's no problem, she left us some money and keys to the house and she was going to call us to tell us when did they return to the house..." Maya said

"So, we have the house just for us?" asked Carla with a mischievous look.

"Yep... that's right" Maya answered with a grin.

....................................................

"Do you know what hour it is? 1 AM" Kev said, still looking at his watch.

"Good morning everyone!" Bri said joking

"We have to return to the house!" Yve said, hitting Brian playfully.

"Come on... let's go to the car" Alexandra said

They began walking back when Nick grabbed Yvette's arm...

"Yve, come here for a sec..." said Nick

"Yeah, Nick... what is it?"

"Look at that shining star up there..." he said, pointing to a big beautiful star.

"Let's make a wish" she whispered

They made their wishes and went back to the house.
