"Hey, did you get my message?" Natalia turned from her locker to face a smiling Samuel. "Of course, I'll definitely be there." Samuel nodded "Great! I asked Marina if she's coming but I-"

"Did someone say my name?"

Marina appeared in front of the two as they stood by Samuel's locker. Samuel looked at Marina "I was just wondering if you were coming tomorrow."

Marina shrugged "Of course! We both will be." Samuel nodded and closed his locker "Marina, how come your parents are letting you go to the party?"

Marina smiled "Easy, I haven't told them. Natalia looked at her "And your brother?" Marina sighed "No, it's better if he doesn't find out."

Samuel leaned back on his locker "Shit! What do I do with his invite?" Natalia and Marina laughed at Samuel's comment. Marina smiled "And your brother?"

Samuel nodded "He's the DJ. You two better like twerking." Marina looked at Natalia and they both began to dance with each other causing Samuel to start laughing at how ridiculous they both were.

Natalia sat braiding her sisters hair. The young girl sat on the floor as she hissed in pain.

Natalia rolled her eyes "Stop being a baby." Savanna sighed "Are you done?" Natalia took the scrunched that was on her wrist and wrapped it around Savanna's hair "Done."

Savanna stood up and walked over to the mirror "Thanks! I love it." Natalia stood up and used her hands to brush off the hairs that fell on her legs.

She then heard her mother's voice echoing from the corridor. She was talking with her new client Joaquin who was following closely behind her.

Paulina walked into the dining room and looked at Savanna "Sweetie, I need to go to work tonight so I've asked Joaquin if he can look after you." Natalia frowned "What about me?"

Paulina sighed "Well, I know that you're revising for your exams so I didn't want to put too much pressure on you." Joaquin walked into the room and smiled at the two girls. "Hi girls!"

Natalia put her head back in annoyance and then stood up "I'm going to my room." She walked out of the living room and walked to her bedroom.

She spent about 30 minutes revising for her exams until a notification came on her computer saying that Tomás was calling her.

She answered the video call and Tomás popped on her screen. "Hola, preciosa." Natalia smiled "How are you?" Tomás "You're beautiful, you know that?"

Natalia frowned "Are you drunk?" Tomás bursted out laughing "Yeah, but that's not the point. Do you want to come over? I'm home alone."

Natalia sighed "I've got things to do." Tomás smirked "You could do me." Natalia smiled "I'm going out with Marina soon so I'll have to pass."

Natalia closed the computer and ran out of her room only to bump into someone on her way out. "Where are you going?" Joaquin frowned at the girl. Natalia looked at him "Over my friend's house."

Joaquin crossed his arms "Now way. Your mother specifically told me that no one is allowed to leave the house whilst I'm babysitting."

Natalia crossed her arms "I don't understand why that applies to me as I'm not the one your babysitting Joaquin smirked "Well, I'm sure your friend can live a night without you." Natalia sighed and walked back into her room. She sat down on her bed and Joaquin stood at her door.

Natalia rolled her eyes "Can I help you?" Joaquin looked at his watch and then walked into Natalia's room. "Your mother tells me you're a dancer. A very good one, that is."

Natalia shrugged "I've been dancing ever since I was young. Always with my friend Marina." Joaquin nodded "My niece is a dancer. She's currently studying in the Spanish National Dance Company."

Natalia's eyes widened and she sat up from her bed "Wow, that's literally my dream. Does she like it there?"

Joaquin nodded and sat on the edge of her bed "Yeah, she wants to be a professional dancer. She's always telling me how much she would like to be in a performance like The Nutcracker or Swan Lake. She has the potential. She's a great little dancer."

Natalia was in a trance when Joaquin was talking about his niece's dreams as they were similar to her own. She had always talked about being in a prestigious ballet company with Marina.  

Joaquin stood up and walked out of the room "Have fun studying!" Natalia sighed and then turned to her phone as she had to text her boyfriend to tell him she wasn't coming over.
