Olivia's pov:

I unlocked the front door as we had just arrived at my apartment. "Sorry for the mess!" I said as Carlos and Charles stepped into my living room. They looked around and smiled. "what mess?" Carlos asked and laughed, so did Charles. "Are you blind, look!" I said while laughing and pointed to the pile of clothes and a few other things laying on the floor and on the table. "Oh that's nothing, and for the record you have lived here for what now? 10 hours or so?" Charles said and sat down on the couch next to Carlos. "You are too kind! Well I gotta go change, I'll be right back". They smiled and nodded, then I walked to my bedroom where I quickly found a tight black skirt and a black long sleeve shirt that had a semi deep v neck. I then quickly applied a little bit more makeup, but not too much.

I then took some heels on, grabbed my jeans and emptied the pockets into my bag. Because my phone, wallet and a few other important things were in them, and I need it with me.

Charles pov:

Olivia just went into her bedroom to change clothes, so Carlos and I are just sitting in her new apartment waiting. "What are you up to?!" I asked and smiled at Carlos, I know him a bit too well. "Me, nothing I swear," he laughed. "Why did you then suddenly want to go out?". "It would be fun, and both of you need to have fun for once, you both deserve it. And you are in the same position as her right now" he said and padded me on the shoulder.. "Carlos! I'm alright, how many times do you want me to explain it to you"?" I said as I almost gave up, because I know that I could use a night out, after everything that happened.

Lately I have actually felt a bit sad. Charlotte and I broke up only two weeks ago, it was very hard on me, because I really did love her so much, and I would do anything for her. But she came home and told me that she didn't love me any longer and that she had found another man, which were some very hard words to hear, I couldn't believe what she was telling me.. She moved her things out of my apartment and we haven't seen each other since then, even though we both live in tiny little Monaco. I then traveled here to Madrid to visit Carlos which has been great, being with a good friend this time. Only Carlos and my family know about the breakup, I haven't even pulled myself together to tell anyone..

Olivia's pov

I had finished getting ready and walked out to the boys waiting for me. "Hope it didn't take too long" I said and smiled, they looked at me and smiled. "Of course not, let's roll," Carlos said and got up from the couch. "You look stunning!" Charles said. "Thank you Charles!" I blushed a bit at his comment.

We arrived at a nightclub that looked very popular and crowded, it was in the middle of Madrid so not that far from my apartment, which will be a bonus when I have to go home later. "These are with me!" Carlos said in Spanish to the doorman, the tall man let us in at the private entrance. "You come here often bro?" Charles joked. "Yeah, it's the best club in Madrid, only the best for my two friends!" he said and smiled as we entered the vip part of the club, there were less people here which was nice.

"Can we have some tequila shots please?" Carlos asked the bartender as we all sat by the bar. I was sitting in the middle with one ferrari driver on each side, not that I'm romantically interested in either of them but a fan of them would die to be me right now..

The bartender poured some tequila shots for us, as well as some lime and salt. Carlos enjoyed it way too much, Charles and I looked like little kids taking their first shot next to Carlos. "Yikes! I hate tequila Carlos!" I said and laughed. "I know you do, that counts you too" he said pointing at Charles. We just laughed and then ordered drinks that actually taste good!.

"Wanna dance?" Charles asked as Carlos had left us at the bar, he went to the toilet ages ago and hadn't gotten back yet. "Of course!" I said and got up from the chair, I took the last sip of my drink and walked with Charles to the semi crowded dance floor.

We danced close to the loud music, as we danced close I could smell his lovely scent. "You're a good dancer," he said and laughed. "Yeah I know!" I said sarcastically while showing some of my amazing dance moves, well okay then let's be honest they were terrible. "Come on Charles, have you seen your own dance skills, they are just as bad as mine" I laughed, which made him laugh, he was so bad but that made it even funnier.

Carlos pov:

I walked out from the bathroom and walked into an old buddy, which made me stand there for a while catching up. "I better get going, take care" I said and bro hugged him. "You too Carlos" he said as he walked away with his friends. I walked towards the bar where it just came to mind that I left Olivia and Charles alone there. I saw two empty glasses on the bar disk where they were when I left them a while ago, so I walked to the dance floor to search for them. I saw them dancing close, laughing and actually having fun. It's nice seeing them both happy for once, they have been through a lot in their personal and emotional life, both of them have been left for someone else, which makes them be in the same booth, I really think they can help each other move on.

They look way too happy, so I'm just gonna go to the bar to get a drink or two until they're coming back..

Olivia's pov:

I was almost out of breath from all the dancing around. Charles is amazing to be around, he's easy and he really gets me, then he's indirectly funny. "I gotta have a break, shall we go grab a drink?" he asked and stopped dancing, I did too. "Yes definitely" I said, then we walked towards the bar. I spotted a little Carlos sitting there alone with a drink in one of his hands and his phone in the other. "Why is he sitting there alone?" Charles asked, I shrugged.

"Carlos, come join us on the dance floor after this drink!" I said as the bartender handed me my new drink. Charles nodded, he wanted him to join us as well. "I'm good guys, I'm probably headed home soon, I have a headache that i can't get rid off" he put down his phone which sled into his pocket. Charles was about to say something, until Carlos interrupted. "It's fine really, you should stay. I'm just gonna grab a taxi and get some sleep" .. "Are you sure?" I asked, he nodded and took the last sip of his drink while hugging us both. "See ya around, have fun guys!" he said and smiled big. "Well, yeah thanks mate" Charles said confused while giving him a look. "I'll call you tomorrow," I said.

Hours went by, Charles and I had so much fun. We danced, drinked and talked a lot. We got to know each other which was nice. "Maybe we should head out soon?" I asked and yawned, I was really on the edge to fall asleep as we were sitting very much laid back in the lounge area. "You're probably right" Charles agreed.. I could really feel all the alcohol in my body, which wasn't a great feeling right now, I had way too much to drink, Charles looked like he had enough as well.. We went outside the nightclub, it was very early in the morning and it was really cold.. "If you want to, you can sleep in my spare bedroom" I offered. "Thanks Olivia, that would be great. I don't really feel like sitting in a taxi all the way to Carlos's" he said while fixing his hair which was a mess.

We decided to walk the entire way back to my apartment, because we really wanted some fresh air. It was nice walking home, we talked a lot about everything..

We got home safely, I completely forgot how messy the apartment was, but at least I know Charles wouldn't mind. "So the spare bedroom is in there" I said and pointed at the bedroom next to mine. "Great, thank you Olivia! Sleep tight" he said and went to give me a hug, which was a bit odd but I liked it. "Goodnight Charles" I said and pulled away from the hug, and went to my bedroom. I quickly got changed and jumped to bed. It's amazing laying here after such a long day. But it has been so good, even better than I imagined.

It was great to be with Charles and Carlos the entire day, and I'm very grateful to have earned another very good friend today. Even though Max propalblt will go nuts when he hears who my new friend is, whoops.
