Victoria's POV

"Sofia, Justin is coming over for a few hours before we go to the dinner," I yelled from my room. I was currently laying in my bed. I hadn't gotten out of since 12, when I woke up and took a shower.

"The dinner?" she yelled back, but it sounded like her voice was getting closer.

"Yeah, the business dinner with his dad, Xavier and Helena. Ryan isn't going if that's what you're gonna ask next," I chuckled. Ever since the business gala, her and Ryan had gotten closer than ever. I was honestly really surprised because she seemed to be getting serious about him and that wasn't something she let happen. Commitment was still not her thing.

"I know he's not because I'm going over to his place tonight. He called me sounding a little salty that he wasn't invited and I told him that I would cook dinner for him," she said before her body appeared at the doorframe. "Oh Jesus Christ."

"What?" I cocked my head to the side.

"Te ves como la basura," she covered her mouth and laughed. "I know Justin is your boyfriend now, but are you really gonna let him see you like that?"

"I know you did not just call me trash," I gasped dramatically as I quickly got out of my bed and rushed over to her, only for her to turn around and run towards her room.

"Ven acá," I yelled and reached my hands out, getting a hold of her arm and pulling her back.

"Tori," she yelled followed by a laugh as I picked her up and threw her on the couch. She was a little taller than me, but a lot skinnier so it was real easy. "You fucking monster," she laughed again as I started to tickle her.

I gasped, "How dare you!"

"Get off, puta!"

Just then there was a knock on the apartment door and my eyes went so wide as I nearly flew off of Sofia to stand up, "Shit, I think that's Justin."

"Go make yourself look less like a rat and I'll keep him company," she waived me off with a chuckle as she got up from the couch. I grabbed the decorative pillow and threw it at her before I stalked off to my room.

When I walked into my bathroom and took a look in the mirror, I cringed at how wild my appearance was. "Jesus Christ," I laughed. "You look like you haven't done your hair in days," I said to myself as I shook my head and went over to the bathtub to wet my locks so I could style it. I was going to slick the front back and comb out my curls so that they were wavy. I wanted to look sophisticated tonight because apparently this dinner was a big deal for Justin, so I needed to look my best and not like a strip club worker.

"Baby?" I heard and it instantly put a smile on my face. The past two weeks had been amazing because Justin and I started to really get to know each other and with that came the nicknames I got accustomed to. Just hearing him call me baby gave me butterflies.

"I'm in the bathroom," I called as I finished gelling down my baby hairs before taking a quick picture for Instagram. "Don't come in yet," I giggled as I eyed Justin through the crack of the door.

"Why not?" he whined. "I haven't seen you in a couple of days and FaceTime doesn't count."

I posted the picture on Instagram and set my phone down on the counter then pulled on the door handle to see him with the brightest smile. "Hi," I smiled back and it only took two seconds for him to scoop me up into his arms. "Did you miss me?" I teased as I squeezed him just as tight as he was squeezing me.
