Chapter 6

The others looked at the scene with tenderness, they got up from their respective seats to join the hug, creating a group hug, the one they always grabbed to demonstrate the support they provide to each other or when either of them felt bad, transmitting confidence and the affection that they had

Little by little they separated from the embrace smiling a little and wiping some rebellious tears that came out of their eyes for that sentimental moment

Dinah: that's right, chacho - he smiled - we will support you in whatever you decide - he shrugged - however I do not agree that you go out with the idiot - he sighed - but if you are going to use it to find out what is wrong with you - put a hand on his shoulder - ok, I approve of you going out with him - he smiled - although I bet that when you define your tastes, boys or girls, they will fall at your feet

shawn: you know you can count on me in whatever it is - he approached her leaving a kiss on her forehead

Camila: Thank you shawn - she smiled - thank you guys - she smiled looking at each one - really thank you

Zayn: hey do not thank, you do not have why, we love you and you do not have to thank for it - I return the smile caressing her hair

Ally: it 's true, you don't have to, we are your friends. No, brothers and we are here to support you in whatever you need - Camila looked at her and approached her giving her a small hug - although she does not agree to use people for her convenience - she separated a little from her - but - he let out a sigh - if you're going to be okay with it - he caught her cheeks - I'll accept it

Verónica: at least for something the mojon had to serve - I speak sitting down again

Both Dinah, Normani, Ariana and Lucy made an approving sound, Ally looked at Veronica in disapproval, Veronica just rolled her eyes and shrugged

Camila: ah ... can you give me a piece of pizza please - he said making eyes, Zayn who was the one who was closest took two pieces on a napkin, then I walk towards her, handing it to her with a smile - thank you, ah. What were you going to tell us - I speak with a piece of pizza in my mouth

Zayn: yeah well - he scratched his head - I think it will be for later

Ariana: what? - I look quickly at Zayn - no Zayn, it's been several weeks, and so far we haven't told you anything

Zayn: yes, I know, but now you can't - he shrugged - Camila has to go to her "date" - she made the quotation marks with her hands - in a while and we won't have time to tell them - I speak while walking back to the couch - also the boys and I have a game in a while and we can't miss it - he said it while lying on the couch - for now there isn't much time to say, so - he shrugged - it won't be this time

Veronica: a match? - She asked interested, getting better in her seat

Harry: yes, they challenged us before coming here - he said sitting next to him

Veronica: And ... Who was the idiot that challenged you? - I ask with a small giggle

Lowering the emotions of a moment ago, changing the subject, the boys sat down again, this time Camila laid her head on Dinah's lap beside her Normani who pushed Zayn a little to make room for her, stroking her hair. the brunette as she put her legs on Ally's lap. Lucy on the other hand sat together with Louis on the carpet, lying on the small table in the center, Ariana sat next to Veronica next to Liam who sat on the arm of the sofa, while Shawn and Niall sat on the bench. wood

Shawn: nothing more, and nothing less, than our favorite people in the whole world - he said it with a small tone of sarcasm, as he sat down

Dinah: don't tell me that those idiots were the ones who challenged them - she said it getting better in the seat, making

Camila get up a bit - and ... in what sport has she challenged them?

Niall: well it's that sports - the girls turned to see - they think they are so good that they challenged us in more than one

Lucy: How will it be two games? - I ask surprised

Louis: actually three - he said grasping the number with his fingers - they think they are better than us

Ally: Really? Three sports - wonder wonder

Harry: yes it is - he leaned back on the sofa - the magazine grandfather and the attempted rapper, they challenged us to death

Niall: well death no, that's a saying, but the thing is serious - he leaned forward putting his elbows on his legs

Veronica: and ... what sports? - I ask looking at Harry

Harry: the first one will be basketball, the other - he was thoughtful - was ah ... baseball and lastly ... it was football

Veronica: that will be interesting - she smiled wickedly - very interesting - I loop her fingers

Ariana: Vero, don't you think of doing anything - he warned her

Veronica: What? - I ask innocent - but if I'm just going to make fun of their loser faces - he said it innocent

Normani: that's what you said last time - I raise an eyebrow at him - and in the end they ended up drenched in paint with itchy powder

Veronica: Nah ..., but don't tell me it wasn't funny - I speak laughing

Liam: I have to admit that it was a lot - he said laughing, which stopped when he received an elbow from Ariana in his ribs, and a severe look - I mean - he cleared his throat - no, it wasn't, not so much - he looked away

Dinah: ahem, ahem ruled ahem ahem - he put his hand over her mouth as he said it, Liam looked at her for a moment, then stuck out his tongue like a little child

Lucy: it was - I admit - but don't you dare do it again - I look at Veronica who just rolled her eyes - let's take the party in peace guys, let's not create more problems with them

Zayn: but if they are the ones who start - I speak quickly

Liam: that's right - he agreed with Zayn - they are the ones who are looking for us, they are the ones who want to fight us

shawn: I'd rather ignore them

Veronica: passive - whisper low but reaching to hear

shawn: Pacifista - stressed

Ally: yes, and you are not far behind - he crossed his arms - following their absurd little games of who is better than the other

Louis: but they are the ones who challenged us, not us - he defended himself crossing his arms

Ariana: and you following the flow - she said staring at Liam, who lowered her gaze

Dinah: We are not going to let those gullible ones get away with it either

Ally: and for not leaving them, we have had endless problems - I speak looking at Dinah - and not only with the calls for attention, not the reports and the suspensions that we have had to face them - I look at everyone - but also with Sofia - the boys lowered their heads making a face - because of those confrontations, she has moved away from us

Veronica: Well, if she prefers her boyfriend - she got up from the sofa - to stay with him, we're not going to be begging her either, over there she is her problem - I walk towards the huge window that let us see the garden, giving them the back to everyone

Ally: it's not just her problem - removing Camila's legs from her lap, she got up - she's like our cousin, she's family, not genetically, but from the heart - I look at each one - and their problems are ours, the Family protects itself, takes care of itself, does not abandon itself, much less turns its back, it is always there to give a hand

Veronica: well, it was she who abandoned us - she turned around - she is the one who turned her back on us - I speak somewhat hurt

Of all those present, Verónica was one of the most affected, after Camila, of course, Sofía's withdrawal hurt them a lot, of course. As I said before, they knew each other since they were little, that means that they grew up together, lived many incredible adventures, shared secrets, joys, sorrows, memorable moments for each one, and of course Sofía was part of it, even though she was the oldest of all. she was like a little girl, doing mischief and pranks. She and Verónica always got along very well, as Sofía was the first to interact with her. At the beginning Verónica was somewhat quiet, withdrawn, insecure, a super shy girl, she did not like to interact with others, at school she was the lonely girl who separated herself from everyone, but when her parents moved, they began to interact more with her old friends and she with their children, that was changing little by little

Veronica : she promised that we would always be together - under her gaze - that she would be there for us - she looked up - but it was only enough that an idiot came, to leave us
