Chapter 2

ALEX

For a while now I am the happiest man in the world and all because Gabriela agreed to be my girlfriend, it was something better than in my dreams, mostly because it wasn't true, but now it is, I AM DATING GABRIELA!!

The thing is I also got Marcos and Carlota back, because even though I never told them before what happened, they were my friends, and some of the good ones. I trusted them as much as I do now. Carlota had put aside her intentions to kill me and we could talk, that didn't mean she trusted me completely yet, but something was something.

Sara was a different story. Now she did talk to me, but only what's necessary. Gabriela always told her I wouldn't do anything to her, which I'm sure I achieve, but she still didn't quite believe it.

At last, I got the class I loved, but not because I liked it, but because there would be the most beautiful and loving person in this world. I was walking to the classroom she had now and since the door hadn't opened yet I waited for her outside.

It doesn't take long for me to come out and it seems like she was so deep in her thoughts or half asleep that she doesn't see me. Another possibility is she's angry about something I did to her, but I have no idea to be honest, so I approach her to find out what was wrong with her.

"Beautiful, are you sure you're okay?" I asked for the second time that day "Where were you?" she asked with a frown "Next to your class, but are you going to tell me what's wrong with you?" I asked, trying to figure out what was bothering her, because something told me that "I'm sleepy, I told you so."

"But there's something else, I know. Tell me why." I insisted "It's nothing, really, it bothers my head and my eyes." she finally replied "If you want, we won't go to class." I assured her, because the last thing she needed was for that stupid teacher to bother her.

"I'll always worry about you," I said "That's how exaggerated you are" she replied, laughing. It didn't take us long to get to the class and we went to the usual place, because yes, now we sat together, which at first made everyone look at us strangely. Gabriela felt uncomfortable and now I'm falling it could be because of that now also because she had something that made me notice everything before the rest. Maybe because she didn't want to be the centre of attention, but I really have no idea what.

The class passed quickly, but not without the teacher calling Gabriela's attention, something he had been doing it a lot lately despite the fact Gabriela was beginning to pay more attention than usual.

We were leaving class, and it doesn't take long for Marcos to come to our side. Seeing them together made me feel a little envious of their relationship. It's a relationship you don't see anywhere honestly, he was there for her, no matter what time he would always answer and she the same for him. They supported each other. As they themselves said, they looked like siblings, and it doesn't grab me in the head why I didn't see it at the time. If I had noticed, I'm sure we would never have broken up, I'm sure of that. Also, I felt indebted to Marcos and Carlota for being with Gabriela when I didn't, I think that's something that brought them closer.

"How was your technical drawing class?" Marcos asked the two of us, but focusing his gaze on Gabriela "Shit, for one time I was half listening, and the guy scolds me." My girlfriend protested "Maybe it's because you were half listening." 

"But Marcos, I was paying attention to him, you know I don't understand anything he explains. I'd rather prepare it on my own and that's it." she replied annoyed, "Well, do what you think is best for you, if you don't understand it and get better grades studying on your own, then do it and leave him alone."

"Marcos is right, beautiful, if you don't understand him and prefer to study on your own, then do it." I supported, because the truth is hers are one of the best grades in class. We arrived at the bottom of the campus, and we were going to start walking towards the place where they always sat, mostly because it was sunny there and Gabriela loved it, she stops and stares at me.

"What's the matter, my queen? Why are you stopping?" I asked, frowning, "Because today you're going with your other friends," she said, and I could see she's serious. "Why? I want to be with you," I said, "I know, and believe me, I want to too, but just because you're with me you're not going to leave your other friends aside."

"But Gabriela..." I started, but it doesn't take long for me to stop "Nothing Alex, there's no but. Today you're going to spend time with your friends, if you want, we can go out today afternoon for a walk, but now you're going to go with your friends."

To my bad luck I know when Gabriela said things like that, there would be no one in this universe who was going to change her mind, she was even more stubborn than me, so I'm going to accept, but that doesn't mean I'm going to be completely convinced. I know I wouldn't be alone, but I enjoyed spending time with her.

"Okay, you win, but only this once. I won't do it for the next one, and you can be sure of that, if you want, this afternoon we'll go for a walk." I replied and a big smile appears on her face.

"Then we hang out this afternoon, but we'll see if you win or not," she said with a smile planted on her face "Alex, I'm sorry to tell you that, but she's going to beat you, you always do what she wants and if she wants that, then you'll do it without hesitation." Pointed out her best friend "hanks Marcos for your support, honestly"

"You know it's true, don't get stung now." That was true, I didn't deny Gabriela anything unless something happened to her, but since that wasn't the case, she won, plain and simple. If Gabriela wanted to, she could do with me what she wanted, I wouldn't say no.

"Well, then I'm going to get them." I said "Okay, but don't get into trouble." she asked, and I nodded "I won't do it, beautiful." We kissed and I left, but not before looking at her to make sure she's okay, which she is.
