I sat there as the waves rolled in and finally got up and started to walk. That's when I felt those familiar arms wrap around me. A small smile appeared on my face when he kissed me on the cheek,
"Fernando it's been three years and he still won't believe me."
"Natalia…don't worry. He doesn't understand. He'll come around eventually. He'll realize what a fool he was in letting the best thing he ever had go." It was getting dark and I could feel the rain coming down in small specks. We ran to an old shack Iker and I used to play in when we were kids. It had an old couch, a phone, a table, and some books. By now it was pouring and Fernando's hair was drenched. He pulled off his shirt and placed it over the table. He put his head against mine as the tears began to subside. He lied down on the couch and pulled me with him. I rested my head against his chest and closed my eyes. His hand was running through my hair and we just lied there, waiting for the rain to subside. Finally after a about a half an hour the rain had gone and Fernando put his shirt back on and we made our way back to the house. By this time Sergio and the others were gone.
"Hola amoigos. Glad you're back. Natalia are you ok? I know it was hard." I smiled and gave my brother a big hug,
"Yeah I'm fine. It was just a lot to deal with it." He smiled and I told the boys I was going to take a shower.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Fernando pov~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I watched as Natalia made her way upstairs to take a shower. Iker said something about having to go to David's house and that it would just be Natalia and I, but my mind was else where. My mind was stuck back in that shack with me on the couch and Natalia with her head on my chest. Even in the rain with tears running down her face she looked beautiful. But I couldn't be falling for my friend's sister. Heck I shouldn't even be falling in love with my friends. Especially since I'm staying with them!
But it's been so long since I've actually been truly in love with someone. Olalla and I just couldn't handle it any more and got divorced. I still see Nora, not as much as I would like, but I still see her. Nora liked Natalia and so did Olalla. So I didn't have to worry about the ex or the daughter not liking her. And we have a lot of chemistry. It's just that, I play futbol with her brother. He trusts me so much, and she's still upset about the whole Sergio thing. I let out a sigh.
But…she is beautiful.

A shower felt great. It felt like it washed all my worries away. All but one thought. The same thought that had plagued me at the shack and on the beach. Did I love Fernando? Or…did I still love Sergio? I mean yes I was ticked at Sergio, but we had a really good thing going and then he blew the whole thing. I'm so confused. What happened to Fernando being a brother? You don't date your brothers. Would you date Iker? Ew, no. But Fernando is different. He's not your brother. He's hot. He's sweet. He kisses you, holds you, and freakin lets you lay on his chest. WITH NO SHIRT! Ugh, I had to stop this. My thoughts were going crazy. I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me. And then I opened the door.
Only to find Fernando standing there.
