Transmigrated Into A Billionaire novel Chapter 45

　　"Are we seriously heading towards her now with her friends staring at us like that?" Ethan asked looking over at them, there was a girl with seriously bleached hair that was blond and another guy with paler skin and full brows. They all looked like models from a magazine just chilling around.

　　"Are you seriously going to meet her right now?," Emily said, dragging Yandel's hand back who seemed to be in a trance as he just kept working towards her, she had to admit, she had never seen her brother so out of his element like she was seeing him today, he lacked composure and those million dollars worth built confidence. Now he was just like a nerd being drawn towards his crush just to spill shit like "what toothpaste do you use?," she didn't want her brother to be the uncool one in this scenerio.

　　"I'm just going to say hi, nothing more, It will be weird and pretty childish seeing her and then ignoring the fact that she's right there looking at her."

　　"Well no one said it is exactly a bad thing Yandel, I'm just saying, you have already taken a shot to the heart before with her, another will not be very nice just because you felt the need to throw yourself under the bus and work right to her and tell her what??,"

　　"How have you been doing?," Emily answered for him, and from his facial expression, you could tell she was right because he certainly wasn't denying it too.

　　"Okay then, what do you want me to say, I need to stuff my feelings down your throat…" Yandel was saying before he got caught off by an all too familiar voice that brought the reddest shades of embarrassment to his face as he knew Araceli was behind them and Ethan was no longer with them.

　　"Uhm...who's throat are we talking about exactly?," Rachel decided to add in since they were so engrossed in their hushed conversation that she knew was definitely about her, and the funnier part was they weren't even trying to act subtle, Emily looked like a coach in boxing hyping up her fighter during breaks in matches.

　　"Hey Araceliiii," they both said at the same time with an upper octave voice which was proudly sponsored by guilt of being caught talking about somebody, and then that same person happens to catch you in the act.

　　"Woah, that was completely not creepy…" Rachel said, smiling nervously at both of them.

　　"Were you both talking about me?," Rachel teased as she saw just her mere presence made them all tensed up.

　　"Whattttt" Emily started with a voice that went higher as she said the word, she wasn't surprised, she was sure Araceli was smart and their not so subtle behavior was something you can generally see through.

　　"Nooooo,"

　　"Whattt" Yandel followed in suit trying to act cool.

　　"I just said it to tease you guys, it seems you guys are actually up to something," Rachel stared at both of them pointedly. Yandel had a nervous smile on his face while Emily was trying hard to keep a straight face, she knew they were definitely talking about her.

　　"So what were you guys talking about then?," Rachel asked, staring at them in their eyes as panic started to surface.

　　"Money!"

　　"Fries!" They both said simultaneously causing Rachel to go into a fit of laughter, Emily used her palm to cover her face as she just decided she has help her brother and taken a fair share of embarrassment so she took her leave, she could hear her brother shouting over a game from a distance like the hooligan he is, but between enduring her stupid brother and taking part of Yandel's embarrassment, she went for the slightly lesser evil.

　　"I think Ethan needs my help," Emily pointed back towards Ethan. He seemed perfectly fine with the 5D game stimulator arguing with the inside character, excusing herself she left Yandel with a mess he had to deal with.

　　"So…" Rachel said, expectantly. She knew how things ended between them but she didn't expect it to take Yandel's self confidence along with it. He was avoiding eye contact with her by staring at every other thing around her.

　　"Hi…" Yandel said, not still looking her in the eyes because last time she saw him, his eyes were filled with tears while she rejected him in the nicest way possible.

　　"Hi??"

　　"Wow incredible convo start up," Rachel said, sarcastically applauding Yandel as he rolled his eyes and looked back at the twins silently praying that one was gonna come to aid and take him home, he didn't sign up for this much embarrassment.

　　"Where's the Yandel I know, the confident CEO who tortured me for years with teasing and words?," Rachel asked, staring directly at him as he just looked away somewhere above her head looking a little worried.

　　"I think your friends are staring at us and they are not even trying to make it subtle,"

　　"Like they are staring directly at us…" Yandel said, using his head to point in their direction.

　　"I know what you're doing, trying to change the topic, we are gonna have this conversation, I bet you" Rachel said, dragging along towards the table that she was seated on before she went to meet Yandel. Rick and Amy realizing they were caught staring suddenly started acting like they were caught doing something illegal and faced their fries like it was the most shocking thing in the whole world like it hadn't been on the table in so long.

　　"Wow!!!"

　　"These fries are so good," Rick started, staring at Araceli who was giving the 'are you guys done' look.

　　"Yeah Rick, they are so great, I think we should order a whole lot more," Amy said, in a weird loud voice filled with bad acting skills, which left Yandel looking dumb founded at both of them.

　　"Ok babe, I don't think they are having any of it," Ricky said, using a napkin to wipe at his mouth as he stretched his chair back a little and looked at both Araceli and the very handsome guy in sweatshirt and nice crocs to introduce himself.

　　"Ok honey, I know I'm super cute and shit but you have to speak at some point," Ricky said, staring at Yandel directly making him choke a little before clearing his throat.

　　"Awwn, where did you find this one Araceli?,"

　　"The playground?,"

　　"Because he sure knows how to act cute," Ricky said, going back to his half way down coke.

　　"Ricky don't be rude, first impression matters," Amy said, nudging him in the hands, at least It wasn't a slap like usual, Rachel just kept giggling beside a perplexed looking Yandel who kept staring between Ricky and Amy, she knew they were going to go all out on him, that was the whole reason she wanted to stall for a bit and give him some heads up but he chose this path.

　　"Oh I can definitely see his first running away from him," Ricky said, dramatically crossing his legs and tucking some hair behind his ear.

　　"Ricky!!!" Rachel and Amy yelled at the same time looking at him in shock.

　　"That's it, you are in time out,"

　　"Go get us more fries," Rachel said, murmuring apologies to Yandel as Ricky stood up.

　　"Hi, I'm Ricky martins...lol just kidding, I'm just Ricky, my friends call me gay Rick," Ricky said, shaking Yandel's hands before leaving to get more fries.

　　"No one calls you that," Rachel and Amy said at once, and Ricky replied by waving the middle finger at them since they were kids around, at least he had the decency not to curse when kids are around.

　　"Wow…" Yandel dragged out as he took another chair from a table to join them.

　　"I know right, he can be dramatic sometimes, today is just one of those days, plus I think he has had way too much coffee for a day," Amy said.

　　"I'm Amy by the way," Amy said, stretching her hands across the table to Yandel who was sitting besides Araceli.

　　"Yandel Baldwin" Yandel replied, shaking her slim fragile hands.

　　"So you are the famous Yandel that got girls in New York wanting to read the Business Magazine," Amy said, smiling at him.

　　"Urgh yeah, I guess," Yandel replied shyly, he wasn't used to people calling him out like that.

　　"I'm back lady and gentlemen," Ricky announced, dropping three different bowls of fries and coke on a tray.

　　"Lady?" Amy repeated after him, staring at him darkly.

　　"Yeah, since you have decided to keep taking punches at me like some freaking blond Anthony joshua, I have decided to tag you as a gentleman even though there is really nothing gentle about you," Ricky said, sitting beside Amy who kept staring daggers at him and he kept the same energy by equally not giving two shits.

　　"Well since we are all gathered here, I have a short term news to make," "Are you pregnant?," Ricky asked.

　　"What…"

　　"No noooo, jesus..." Rachel replied, dragging her hands down her face.

　　"Careful honey, you gonna give your pretty face wrinkles," Ricky sassed, sipping his coke.

　　"Just shut up Rick and let her talk," Amy snapped.

　　"Well y'all know about Xander and how he is a cheating bastard of a fiancé right?," Rachel asked.

　　"Yeah"

　　"uh huh"

　　"Yes…" They all randomly answered looking at her expectantly to drop the bomb on them.

　　"Well…"

　　"Just get to the point already Araceli, this caffeine in my system isn't exactly anxiety friendly," Ricky snapped a little.

　　"Ok ok, well I'm planning a dinner meeting with my Mom and Dad with the Millers and I thought just to spice it up, to invite you guys, since Alice will be there too," Rachel pitched, looking at them excitedly...
