ALONG WITH THE PEOPLE INSIDE (season 01)

[...]

-Contame cómo pasó… - Mery insisted.
-Dale… Bueno, viste que ayer salimos ¿no? – Aye started – Bueno, resulta que-
Wait.
-¿Qué, ahora me interrumpís vos? – Aye said to me.
Yes, and with a good reason. It would be completely annoying for the readers if you tell the story with freaking dialogues. Therefore, I’m gonna borrow you my voice to tell.
-No entiendo – she said to me.
-Dice que vos vas a ser la narradora mientras cuentes tu historia con el Jose – Mery explained to her.
-Aahhh… - she said.
-Además así la contás en primera persona – I told Aye.
-Okay. Well, then. Uy, it feels funny to talk without starting a dialogue.
-Dale… - the narrator said to me.
Can I call you Narry?
-¿Podés limitarte a contar la historia y ya? – Narry said.
I could, could I?
-¡Dale! – they both screamed at me.
I have feelings!
Okay, it doesn’t matter. The story begins like this…
Joe had asked me out, just to hang out and laugh for a while. In fact, he told me to go out along with you and James, but I don’t know what happened to James that he couldn’t.
-La acompañó a Alice a comprarse nuevos platillos… – Mery added.
Thanks. Then, I told him that it wasn’t right to drag you into us going out. That’s why we went out just the two of us.
-You look beautiful – he said when I met with him.
I looked at myself, I was wearing a shirt upon a t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans.
-Jeje… Qué sonso que sos… - I said smiling at him.
I still don’t know how I escaped from Brendon’s claws. But he never knew I dated Joe.
He took me to a park that was beyond too far, ‘cause we walked for like two hours to get there. But it was really precious ‘cause you could see the top of the mountains from there.
-This place is amazing Joe! – I said looking around the place.
-You like it? – he asked – Me and Alice found it a year ago from today – he said looking around the beautiful landscape we had in front of our very eyes.
-No me gusta interrumpir tu bello relato, pero ya estás hablando como libro – Mery interrupted me.
I’m gonna ignore you.
-How? – I asked looking at him.
-By luck… We were pacing without a destination and we got here by chance… - he replied looking back at me.
-You have a very good luck… You don’t find this kind of place very often in Argentina… - I said.
-My real luck appeared the same day you did – Joe said.
-What? – I asked pretending I hadn’t heard him, hoping he was too embarrassed to say it again.
-My real luck appeared the same day you did – he said again looking into my eyes.
-Bueno, sí, no flashées… - I said.
I discovered that when he makes me feel nervous I speak in Spanish.
-I’m talking seriously – he said without taking his eyes off of me.
-But… - it was all I could say, and I couldn’t even look him in the eyes.
-Hey… - he said placing a half-smile on his face, grabbing my chin and pulling up my head so our eyes could meet again – I like you. Very much… -
He took his time to keep talking, and I’ve gotta admit it was too much. He let go of my face and grab both my hands.
-Si no estuviésemos solos diría que ésto es demasiado cursi – I said in a whisper.
We walked towards a bench that was nearby and we sat. Right when I started feeling like I was part of this cheap fic he started talking again.
-It’s always been hard for me to telling people how I feel… I mean, when I really mean it – he started – But it’s different with you. And that’s why I… - he stopped.
-Go on… - I said; it was the first time I dared to looked right at him, and he was just staring his feet.
-You’re kind, you’re gorgeous – he started with a smile.
-No exageremos – I said, and I think I may’ve blush a little.
-You’re a musician. And the best of all, you’re insane – he finished.
-Wow, that’s good news – I said smiling shyly.
-Besides, you’re the only one who seems to have the power over me – he said smiling wider.
-I control you – I joked.
-Babs… I… Shit! If I don’t tell this at once it’s gonna be worse – he whispered.
-Just spit it out – I said; for what?!
-I’m in love with you. Babs, I… I love you – he finally said looking at me with his cheeks turning red.
I didn’t know whether to burry my head in the ground or jumping off the cliff. I mean: it’s Joe!
Anyways, I didn’t know where I took the strength from to say:
-Maybe it’s too soon to say ‘I’m in love with you’, but I can say that I like you… A lot – I said – Surely it’s me who’s not ready to say the words, not that I am not… You know… - I ended stuttering.
He just smiled.
-The sun is going down – he said, without erasing the smile on his face.
-Yes – I said looking at the sun too.
He rounded my shoulders with one arm and pulled me closer.
-I’m so glad I met you – he whispered kissing my forehead – And I’m glad I could tell you how I feel – he added lowering his voice.
-Yeah… Me too – I answered. And in that very moment I felt really happy I met him.
I mean, after that boy… Okay Mery, you get me…
-Sí, además Joe es un tierno – Mery said.
-You know what I like the most about you? – I asked Joe.
-What? – he asked passing his fingers through my hair.
-That you’re just like I imagined you – I said.
-That’s funny – he said smiling.
-And why it’s funny? – I asked smiling too and turning my head to look at him.
-‘Cause you’re just what Alice wanted for me – he said.
-She’s always in the middle… - I added without taking my eyes off of him.
-Am I able to kiss you? – he asked.
-Why does everyone ask me that question? – I asked embodying my self to front him.
-Why not? – he asked.
-‘Cause it taked all the magic away – I explained.
-Yes? And exactly why is that? – he asked.
-Because if you ask me if you can-
And no. He didn’t let me finish ‘cause he kissed me right in the middle of my sentence.
