16) Virtually alone


The mobile phone alarm clock rang and Lena reached out to reach the table and grab his phone. He opened the lid with closed eyes, and without reading what it said the screen, gave the red button on the right and closed the lid. She knew it was time to get up, the clock struck nine o'clock. Lena did not want to raise, but then he heard as he opened the door of his room. He thought he must have been his grandmother, so do not bother getting out of bed. Gradually the light was coming into the room. Someone had opened the windows to run slightly wooden and the soft colored curtains Beto that he was already far enough away from the room, grabbed clothes and ran to the bathroom.
At breakfast time, Lena saw at the entrance had some suitcases. "James was leaving? Could not be. Had to be something else. Now that he had used to his presence, now that I knew, and now ... that things had happened, how would I do without it? It would be difficult.
did not know that you ibas.-Lena said entering the kitchen, where the four were already grandparents.
- Where do you want me to go? "He asked him while looking for something in the closet.
-not, as there are bags in the door, I thought maybe ...
-The bags are ours, baby. Grandparents are going to spend two or three days at a friend's house nearof Genova.
"But ... you turn, right?
"I always do, they are few days when I'm here, they say give us some freedom, we we are leaving the house for us solos." I whispered to Lena James detrás. "Now say something like do not do holidays, and if you do, you will not notice.
"Of course we will return. By Friday we'll be here. And guys ... they let you alone, does not mean that you have to throw the house through the window. Comport. And do not do parties ... and if you do, leave everything clean, no one notices that have been here a bunch of teenagers, right?
James gave him a knowing look to Lena, a sign that was right with what he had said the holidays. Lena began to give vuada, in order to focus on the conversation they were having people over the table, and so distracted and not think about their knees, but in doing so, with the first thing he found was through the eyes of James. He rose quickly from the table to avoid that situation, but his was not the art of dissimulation and discretion, and in so doing he caught one of the lace tablecloth tables on his belt buckle, and pulling the piece fabric, and making ripples all that was over. If you were trying to go unnoticed in that situation, he got the opposite effect.
- Have a little more careful Lena, "said his grandmother. The girl was rushed to release the cloth from his belt, but his fingers shook so I ended upremoving the belt or unwillingly, and suddenly releasing it with contempt, as if the cause of some of the world wars. He left the kitchen up the stairs as fast as they could, locked in his room.
- Lena Vale ... relax ... "She said to herself sitting on the bed.
had no reason to so, so nervous. She felt very strongly that what I had to do: convince James to return with Fabiola. It was easy to say but not do. I was very afraid of what could happen three days, but his greatest fear was not to depart on time. Needed to talk to James about what was happening, but how to do that, while trying to pass something with Fabiola?
- I think this is tuyo.-Dijo James entered the room unannounced, and bringing their thoughts Lena. He started a little notice him. "Today you are very scary, huh?" He asked jokingly. - Are you okay? Lena
simply nodded his head and grasp the belt that James had in his hand. She pulled him, but the boy did not let go, and a bad boy smile, he pulled the belt to him, thus making it even closer. The beating of his heart began to increase in pace, playing their song faster than normal or usual manner to the sound of it every time I was at that distance from James. And he had realized. Knew everything that happened every time he approached her, and she liked it cause such effects. He took a peJames rotectora that keep their lips. He is expecting that at all, had been thinking and doing little plans for those three days in solitude, without the grandparents. "What was this now? James wondered.
- The kids will also. James
snapped annoyed at that response as she had answered. Among all the reactions and responses that Lena would have thought that would say the Fabian, that was the least expected. They parted, he turned toward the hallway, and she backed away from where I was staying in his room.

- Thanks for inviting me! - Fabiola thanked him many times while passing hangers in the closet looking at all your clothes Lena.
- No so Carrie Bradshaw, little can be found.
- also sure to find something special to wear tonight.
- Will it something? - Asked innocently sitting on the bed and flipping through a magazine without paying much attention to the content.
- Maybe not today, but tomorrow at the party I hope so.
- What party? "Lena asked confused. It was she who lived in that house and did not know how he managed to be always the last to be aware of everything that was going to happen there.
- The party that we will dar. "replied the blond girl quietly while looking in the mirror with a hook stuck in his head to see how it was a dress. Lena still did not understand much of that party was speaking. Aqndo, you probably already know even the names of children, which secure that would be gorgeous.
In the hall she met Jean Carlo, Fabiola's brother.
- Three days, right? - Asked him with a tone of ulterior motives.
- Good thing you came, but would be three days to James. boring, "she said passing by and entering the room of your neighbor.
opened the door to James' room and there he was, in bed, reading a book with such serenity that particularized. He looked up from the pages of the book, and with indifference gave him a look at Lena.
- educated people usually entrar. chop before, "he said before turning his book. The girl turned and unsaltedcomplicated to follow the second. Frowned and pressed a fist to contain the rage.
- Never mind. Call whoever you want, and bring what you want.
- Will not you come?
- might lower a bit, do not know.
- Lena is a party, do not be silly, I'll spend it. Or do you perhaps prefer to be locked in your room with your book while you listen as the people on the ground floor passes it better than you? Plus ... - The boy paused and took a step closer. - You must come. If you are not you ... "James shrugged his shoulders a little, being more affectionate than usual, and Lena provoking a compelling desire to forget the presence of Fabiola in the house. - I'm bored. Lena
and confused and was seriously rethink what was happening, or what they were doing. James
was approaching the girl, but she took a small step backward to avoid being a few centimeters and pass what she really wanted to pass. Removed a lock of hair that was crossing the face of the queue to have escaped that she had worn to walk home. With the tip of his fingers grazed the soft skin of Lena, causing it to shudder and shut her eyes as a reflex.
- Will you come?
His voice was too close. James I was whispering in his ear as he put his hand on the girl's waist. Having closed his eyes did not notice the approach of the boy. Tried to control its responserespiration, the beats, but it was completely useless, whenever he was around all accelerated.
The door creaks open attempt made everything will be further accelerated. James was removed as quickly as he could but to no avail, they had been too close to give an apology that sounded true.

"So you were unwell yesterday, huh? - Asked the blonde girl from behind James, placing her hands on the shoulders of the boy. - Are you better now? -Yes, he said he left there. Lena response sounded that James had been too dry. "Well, we are also going to subir." said Lena posing the cup on the table. Cos The girls entered the room and shut the door. Lena began to make his bed, and Fabiola sat in a cushioned chair beside the closet. "It's extremely rare

- Who? "Asked Lena asWhile stretching the sheets.
-James.
-Ah. "He said letting go, as he always did.
"Other years it was not.
- No?
-No. I still remember when he first came. At first I was shy, but hey, then as we would know, because it was changing. But this year is really weird.
Lena felt like deja vu with this conversation. Fabiola weeks ago also had begun to count as had been the arrival of James to Volterra, but had left the track, leaving a great uncertainty in the air. Lena not to remain with the concerns of the earlier conversation, he decided to question her.
"But, strange ... in what sense? How was it before?
"I understand that everything has changed, but need not be ai I was ashamed to go with them because they had not yet spoken with him, and did not know if he wanted ... that thing happen again. Anyway, as we were friends first and foremost, as Jean Carlo persuaded me to go out with them, and I stay home.
"And then what happened?
"Well, what had to happen ... I would not do anything unless he is released, so neither wanted to start something that he probably did not want to pass. Spent a few days, even weeks. I think two. Two weeks after arriving here was when it happened .- Did? Lena was imagining all sorts of things, summers in Tuscany are very hot. But the plot would lasting, since Fabiola not explain anything, and apparently did not want Lena"He treats me differently, like a longer, and should not be ... there are times that happens to me or ignores me, and you see the answers it gives me .- Fabiola, sad, bowed his head, gave a sighed, and looked at Lena. "You think he has fallen quite well.
"That choice is left, we have to spend almost 24 hours a day juntos. Lena He apologized. "That's why
is why I'm telling you all this .- The American did not understand what he meant Fabiola .- I need your help.
- What helps? Why?
"You have more time to spend with him alone. Could you ...? The tone of his voice had changed, and now turns into a much more timid, half-afraid to ask the question. - Could you talk to himand ... and ask you to think of me? Maybe ... "she said, gently biting her lower lip might want to get back with me. I want to talk to him about what happened. Last year I tried, but things took a direction that was not what I intended to take, this year I decided to tell everything I think, and what I feel, but I need a little help to take the plunge.
"And that's where I come.
-Si. I would like you to help me get back as before, or at least try. Will you?
That question fell on his conscience, striking again and again. What else could I do? A boy or a friend? I really just know them both and could not lose anything, and did not trustEnglish, so that you can you find out about algo. "said Luca appeared as Lena in the room. Lena
"Come, sit. "Sit-aquí.
James said pointing to the gap between him and Fabiola on the couch. Lena looked up at them, he said.
"No quiet, I see from aquí." He said leaning against the wall.
"Do not be silly, sit, you'll end cansándote.
"I've been sitting for nearly an hour on the phone, my ass hurts from sitting, I'll stay here.
"Whatever.
After ten minutes, Lena was tired, but still refused to sit there, it would be like James and Fabiola spread further than they already were, and now felt too uncomfortable with the situation to get closethem to think about what to do with anything. He slid down the wall and sat with his legs on the ground esturadas.
- Are you comfortable? "Asked James twisting and stretching the head from the couch to reach her.
-Mucho.-Lena replied without separating the light of television, and folding his arms.

Halfway through the film, Lena did not know how to give, not like sitting there in the ground was beginning to fail to feel the bottom of your body. He got up to stretch a little, and then let out a terrible scream.
- Are you okay? "Asked James worrying.
"It's as if I had cut the legs ..." Everyone looked at her without understanding what he said "You mand have fallen asleep, okay? And now I hurt ...
-see, "said James turned to the TV" If you had sat here now would have the perfect legs.
-Gracias.-Lena replied sarcastically. He went to the dinner table and dragged a chair near the couch.
-Just kidding, right? "Asked James to see it sitting there.
"I better sit here, more room to stretch your legs, and if I have to lift something, do not bother anyone.
-yourself.
The film ran its course, and Lena rested his legs on the sofa arm. To keep them there in tension began to tremble.
- Are you shaking? "He asked in low, to not disturb the rest for the film.
- What? No.
James laughed atsee Lena's feet were still moving.
-Lena, you're shaking. Are you nervous about something? "Asked accompanied by a mischievous laugh.
"No, and no. And do not tremble ... shiver, okay?
"If you had sitting here, I can assure you would not have been cold. Lena

While looking for something in the refrigerator for some time before returning to the room, was startled to feel a warm hand on her hip.
- Are you scared? "Asked James.
"A little ..." she said turning. James was too close to your face, smiling. "I came to a bit of a
