You Needed Me | Oscar Diaz [EDITING]

8 - Angel

I came over to get Angel so that we would have the chance to talk before the Santos took off for collection day. Once they left the house they usually wouldn't come back until late. I'd come over around 3 and cook dinner for Oscar and call Cesar to make sure he went straight to Ruby's house. So before then I wanted to talk to Angel. 

He had texted me last night after Oscar walked me home. His texts were pretty vague so I needed clarification. And since Oscar was obviously over his feelings for me I figured I needed to get over my feelings for him too. 

"So what did you want to talk about Angel?"

He turned and looked at me as we walked up the sidewalk. Then he started smiling and laughed a little as he shook his head. I frowned and laughed a little too. "What's so funny?" 

He shook his head. "You. You have so much control over Spooky, it's crazy." I shrugged my shoulders. "We just have respect for each other." He raised an eyebrow. "He didn't respect you too much last night when he was fucking Nina." I stopped smiling and looked away. Then we stopped walking. He turned my face to look at him. "Riella, he claims to care so much about you but he never really looks at you. Not the way that I do. Riella, you are so beautiful. You shouldn't be running around her playing wife to some pendejo who just takes that shit for granted." I looked up at him. He was speaking so passionately it gave me chills. He took my hands into his. "Riella, I haven't been able to talk to you and tell you how I really feel, but I like you. I have for a long time." 

I shook my head. "Angel, wait, I mean....." Before I was able to figure out what I wanted to say he leaned in and kissed me. The kiss caught me off guard and I was frozen for a moment. Then I kissed him back. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I threw my arms around his neck. When we finally pulled away from each other we both took a moment to catch our breath. "Was that okay?" 

I smiled at his statement. "Of course it was." 

He smiled and kissed my hand. "Riella I want to be with you." I smiled at him and then I thought of Oscar. He would be pissed. He would probably try to kill Angel. I shook my head. "Angel I can't. Not right now." "Why? Because of Spooky?" I sighed, "I mean, yeah. I just don't want you two to get into a fight." Angel let go of my hand and laughed. "See this is what I mean Riella. This pendejo has you so fucked up in the head." I frowned. "Angel it's not like that." He laughed. "Yes it is. But it's cool. Apparently you like to be one of many." 

I slapped him. 

I couldn't believe he just said that. "I'll see you later Angel." 

"Wait, Riella, I didn't meant that. I'm sorry." 

His words became less clear as I left him and walked back to my house. No one understands the relationship that I have with Oscar except for Oscar. And that's fine. But was Angel right? Was I being used, taken advantage of? No, I love helping Oscar and Cesar. They're like a part of my family. Fuck Angel, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
