Kiara POV
I throw the cup in the dustbin as Xahria stands beside me.
"Come here, we are taking pictures," Aubree yelled calling us.
"Where are Angel and Ezarah?" Xahria asked.
"They are talking with Xaiden. I will call them," Aubree said turning around and going to the car.
"The ice cream was good," Xahria said. I turn and look at her.
"Yeah, the ice cream was good."
"Why are you dragging me here?" I heard Elwen's voice.
Angel and Ezarah laughed as Aubree pulled him with her.
"Hold this camera, take pictures of us girls," Aubree said handing her camera to Elwen.
"Come on," Xahria and I wander towards where they stood.
I stand in between Xahria and Angel. Smile bright at the camera as Elwen clicks the pictures.
My gaze goes to Nico, he is smiling. Nico is talking with Ryder, Ryder seemed serious-whole Nico is laughing and smiling.
Barcelona streets are cool to roam freely. We are having fun while roaming around.
Kenric and Kai walked towards where we are.
"Done?" Elwen asked.
"Yup," Aubree replied.
"Now take pictures of us," Kenric said wrapping his arm around his brother Kai.
"I don't wanna take pictures with you dumb f**k," Kai hissed removing Kenric's arm.
"Okay then, Elwen come man. We will take a picture together," Kenric said.
They handed the camera to Kai while we girls stood there not saying a word.
"We should take photos with the boys and post them on i********:. We haven't posted anything on our group account," Aubree said.
"Yes, everyone is here except Camryn. We need to click a picture and post it," Angel said.
"Do we have to?" Ezarah asked.
"We have to," Xahria replied.
"Are we taking a group picture?" Elwen questioned as they heard the conversation.
"It's a good idea. I need to post on my account too," he added.
"Yes, call everyone here," Xahria said.
"Where are Xaiden and Rowen?" Angel asked.
I look around, Rowen and Xaiden are nowhere to be seen.
"They went to get the ice cream," Kai replied.
"I want one too," Ezarah said pulling her phone out.
"Same, I want the caramel nuts," Xahria said.
"What about you three?" Ezarah asked as she called Xaiden.
"I'm good," Aubree said.
"I want the same as Xahria," Angel said.
"And you?" They asked me.
"Same."
My gaze went to Kreo who is walking towards us.
"Wassup?" He asked then wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
"Nothing, just waiting for ice cream," I tell him.
"Who is bringing the ice cream?" He asked.
"Xaiden and Rowen."
"Where were you?" Elwen asked Kreo.
"Went to get my phone," Kreo replied.
"Don't go anywhere, we will click a group photo when Xaiden and Rowen are back," Angel said.
"Okay," he replied.
"I will get the tripod stand then," Elwen said.
"Yeah, it's in the car bonnet," Kenric said.
Xaiden and Rowen returned carrying a cover that is full of icecreams.
"Woah, why did you guys bought so many icecreams?" Ezarah asked.
"You guys keep calling me and telling me to bring this and that. We bought many, so help yourself," Rowen said.
"Good thing," Kai said wandering over to Xaiden.
Ezarah and Xahria took theirs. Then followed by Aubree, Angel and Kai.
"Here, yours," Angel said handing mine.
"Give me the cover here," Kreo said.
Kai's phone rang and at the same time my phone chimed, I looked at it to see my brother name.
"Just a minute, hold this I will be back," I tell Kreo handing my ice cream.
"Yup." I excused myself from everyone and answered the call.
"Hey!" I said.
"Hey, dee(sis)! How are you?" Ishaan said.
"I'm good and what about you?"
"I'm doing good, I called you because I will be coming to New York in a few days," he said.
"Really?! Woah!" I say in happiness. A huge smile grows on my face.
"Friends wedding and I also wanted to meet you. It's very lonely here without you," he said, immediately I missed all of them. Ishaan is rarely expressing how he feels.
"Aye! I miss you all. I will be coming home for the holidays soon," I tell him.
"You should... You should..."
"So who is this friend?" I ask him.
"Someone you know."
"Achaa listen I need to go now. I will call you back later. Take care sis, love you and miss you stupid," he said.
"Haha... Love you and miss you too i***t," I said.
"Yup."
I ended the call, turned around and bumped into someone. I strained my head to see a scowling Nico.
"Why are you sneaking up on me?" I ask him.
"Whom you talked with?" He asked looking down at me. My gaze goes to where others stood.
They aren't watching us but they are smiling.
"My brother Ishaan," I said frowning. Suddenly his scowl went away and he released a breath of relief.
"You are a weirdo," I say before walking towards the girls.
"I'm not," he replied following me. He started humming something.
"Is everyone are here?" Elwen asked as he set up the tripod stand.
"Yes, everyone takes positions," Angel said.
"I want to stand beside Ryder bhaiyya," Aubree said wandering over to where Ryder stood.
"I will stand beside you," Rowen said following her.
"I will stand beside you," Angel said following Rowen.
"Stand beside me," Nico said holding my hand and going over to where others stood.
"We will bend down," Elwen said looking at Kreo.
"Yup."
"I will stand behind," Xaiden said.
"Me too," Kenric said.
"Settled?"
"Yes."
"I have this, I will just click the button and the photos click," Elwen said.
"Okay."
Nico wrapped his arm around my shoulder as we posed for the group photos.
"Kenric stop keeping your hand on my hair i***t," Angel said.
"Opps."
"Look at the camera everyone, don't spoil the pictures," Aubree said.
"Okay ma'am," Rowen said.
"Shut up."
"Ma'am and Aubree? Hahahaha," Elwen made a joke on Aubree.
"Hahahahaha."
"I will kick your a*s Elwen," Aubree said.
"Okay..."
I laughed as they started arguing and made fun of each other. Ten minutes passed before we are done with the pictures.
"Gonna share pictures in the group, don't ask me for pictures," Elwen said removing his phone from the tripod.
"What we gonna do now?" Xahria asked.
"Are we going somewhere?" Xaiden asked.
"Let's go to the park," Angel said.
"Park? How far it is from here?" Nico asked.
"Yeah, there is a national park ten km from here. We can have our lunch there like a picnic kind. We have blankets in the car," Angel said.
"Okay then, let's go and order food from the nearby restaurant and pick it," Nico said.
"We will bring food, it will take time. You two shift to Nico's car," Ryder said looking at Aubree and Xahria.
"Okay."
"Okay."
"You two sit in our car," Ryder said pointing to Kreo and Kenric.
"Yup."
"Good."
"What you six like to have?" Kreo asked Kai, Angel, Aubree, Xahria, Nico and me.
"I will have any platter," Angel said.
"I will have pizza," Xahria said.
"Same."
"Same," Aubree and I say at the same time.
Everyone tells what they want to have. Mostly it's pizza.
"See you all later," Kreo said.
Xahria and Aubree shifted to our car. While Kreo and Kenric shifted to Ryder's.
Aubree's phone started ringing, I opened the car door and got inside.
"Just a minute," Aubree said as she stayed back to take the call.
"Seatbelt," Nico pointed out.
"Yeah," I say. I put on my seatbelt and look at the front.
"Nico, this car is good," Ezarah said.
"Thank you, but the car is Ryder's."
Aubree opened the door and got inside. She took the seat beside Xahria. Then Kai got inside.
"Is that Reine who called you?" Xahria asked Aubree.
"Yeah, she became quite busy with her school," Aubree said.
"Reine? You mean your best friend?" Nico asked Aubree.
"Yeah! The one and only shy girl Reine," Aubree said.
"Array it's been so long. She never came to New York again?" Nico asked.
"She visited a lot of times but you guys didn't see her. Nor you people were here to meet her," Aubree said.
"Oh, so she came home?"
"Yeah, not all the time. Twice a year or else I used to go to California to meet her," Aubree replied.
"Remember she was so scared of Ryder that she would run away whenever she sees him," Kai replied.
Aubree, Ezarah and Angel chuckled. I know that Reine is Aubree's best friend who lives in California.
"True man, she used to joke around with us but once she sees Ryder entering the room she runs away."
"But why she is so scared of Ryder?" Kai asked Aubree.
"Once when we all were playing with colours, she accidentally threw a bucket full of coloured water at Ryder and his ex. His ex was furious as they were going out. He kinda scolded her. Seeing his furious face and him raising his voice scared her. She started crying and from then on, she doesn't show her face to him," Aubree explained.
"Woah, she must've got so scared. Angry Ryder means danger," Kai said.
"So true," Aubree said.
How is she though?" Nico asked.
"She is just like the old times. She started her preschool, she is quite busy with her school and all right now, Aubree said proudly for her best friend.
"They were the rowdies, she is also a prankster and just like these two," Kai said pointing at Aubree and Xahria.
"Call her some time to visit, we want to see her," Angel said.
"Will do. Maybe on the occasion of my brother's wedding," Xahria teased and I quickly shared a horrified look with Nico.
Everyone laughed except me. Even Nico started smirking looking at my uncomfortable face.
We aren't even in relation but here they are already excited about the wedding. Heck, I don't even know if he likes me or not.
For a reason I know he feels something for me because of the way he acts around me.
"Why you both aren't talking?" Aubree asked Kai and Angel. Angel rolled her eyes while Kai shrugged his shoulders.
"Don't you see they fought and Kai is trying his best to show angel how sorry he is?" Xahria said.
Aubree said "true" laughing along with me and Nico.
"I'm not and that's not true." Kai hissed.
"Whatever makes your ego cool," Aubree replied.
"Why don't you guys go and date boys. You guys are annoying."
"Sure, Angel already likes this guy. Aubree and I go date some men." Xahria tells Kai. He snapped his head towards Xahria before looking at Angel.
"Who is this guy?" his question is directed to Angel.
"None of your business." she snapped. He was about to say something but Nico cut him off.
"Stop it guys, my head hurts. I am sure dad doesn't like the idea of you dating Xahria and Aubree I don't think Rowen will allow you to even text some guy," he said and everyone calmed down.
I smiled shaking my head. They can be a handful and argue like kids.
I stepped out of the car along with others. I stretched my arms before jumping slightly when I felt Nico's arm around my waist.
"I need a hot coffee, their arguments and all brought me a headache," Nico said putting his head on my shoulder blade.
I chuckled patting his head.
"Come one love birds! We need to go inside." Xahria yelled.
"We will have coffee inside," I said.
"We better," he replied walking with me.
