One more concert, one more trip. Blue was going to Mexico to promote their album. broke up with his girlfriend a few months ago and was enjoying his new life.
_ You seem to be very happy, . � said smiling.
_ What can I do? Keep crying �cause she�s gone? No way!
They were all playing and happy. When they reached Mexico City, the fans were hysterical, journalists were everywhere and lots of security guards around. At the hotel they got the list of the places they had to go.
_ We�re gonna stay for a long time here in Mexico. � observed.
_ It�s true. We have a lot of places to be and to go. � said.
_ And when all these are gonna start? � asked.
_ I think tomorrow we�re gonna give some interviews and this weekend we�ll do our first showcase. � answered.
_ We could go out to eat something, what do you think? � suggested.
_ Aren�t you tired? � asked surprised.
_ Of course I am but, I really wanna see the mexican �se�oritas�.
They all laughed and decided what to do. , and went to a restaurant as stayed at the hotel resting.

The whole week was crazy, they went to a bunch of places and, finally, they went to a little town called Colima. The place was exactly like those little towns in western movies with rustic houses, very friendly people, women wearing long and light dresses and men with �poncho� and �sombrero�. The boys would be there for 3 days and then, they�d go to Guadalajara to do their last showcase. They stayed in a peaceful hotel which was also a big farm. They were there to rest.
_ It�s a nice place. Peaceful and relaxing. � observed.
_ You�re right, man. I could live here forever! � said taking the keys to his room.

When they were all settled, the boys decided to walk around the hotel and they took different sides. went to see the horses, and decided to go to the pool and went to explore a little.

After one hour walking around the fields in the hotel, saw a large vineyard where people were working. It was a beautiful image �cause everybody was happy singing and dancing picking grapes and preparing them to do wine. Suddenly realized he was in a private property and not in the hotel. When he was about to go back from where he came he heard a woman singing close to him. He turned around and saw a girl.
_ � Pero me acuerdo de ti/Y otra vez pierdo la calma/Pero me acuerdo de ti/Y se me desgarra el alma...�.
_ You have a beautiful voice! � said getting close.
_ Gracias... � the girl answered shyly.
_ What�s your name?
_ .
_ Nice to meet you, I�m .
_ I know. I saw you on TV yesterday.
smiled.
_ Do you live here?
_ S�, this is my father�s farm.
_ So I guess I invaded your property. � said ashamed.
_ Are you at the hotel?
_ Yes.
_ So don�t worry, sometimes people get lost and come here by mistake. We�re used to it.
raised her head and could see her face a bit better, she was beautiful. She had eyes, light brown hair and the skin color of cinnamon. The girl was wearing a white blouse with the sleeves falling over her shoulders, a long white skirt and wasn�t wearing shoes. was a raw beauty.

The girl went to meet her father as stood there. He was charmed by her and wanted to know her better. When he got back to the hotel the others were waiting for him at the lobby.
_ What took you so long? � asked.
_ Who�s the victim this time? � joked.
didn�t listen to them, he seemed to be in another world.
_ ! ! Wake up, man! � said tapping his shoulder.
_ What?! � answered disoriented.
_ Where have you been? � asked.
_ I was walking around and went to the next farm.
_ And why are you smiling? Did you do something in there? � asked.
_ No, I was watching the people working. They looked so happy.
_ Are you sure it was only that? � asked.
_ That and... I met a girl.
_ I knew it! � yelled � Do you think our mate would be with this stupid face just because he saw a bunch of people working?
They all laughed.
_ Who�s she? How does she look? � inquired.
_ She�s beautiful! Her name is .
_ Well, here we go again! joked.
After chat a lot the guys had lunch and then went to rest. At night they decided to walk around town. It was really busy �cause there was a party going on. There were people everywhere and bands playing music �grupera� and �ranchera� . The boys were having fun drinking lots of beer and tequila.

He turned around and saw .

_ Do you wanna go somewhere else?
_ Let�s go to the vineyard.
The girl took �s hand and they went to the farm.
_ Wait for me here, ok?
nodded and went inside her house. A few minutes later she got back with a basket and a blanket.
_ Here... I brought something for us to eat..
_ You read my mind. I�m really hungry. � he answered laughing.
They sat among the grapes and chatted for hours.
_ Are you from here? � asked.
_ I was born and raised in Colima. Where are you from?
_ I�m from England. I live in London, do you know there?
_ I�ve heard a lot about there. Historical things and the Big Ben.

_ How old are you? � asked.
_ 19.
_ So young and full of plans
_ Since I was a little girl my family taught me some responsibilities.
noticed that the girl was sure of the things she wanted, mostly �cause she came from a traditional mexican family. Hours went by and got more attracted to , he was feeling inside a movie like Don Juan De Marco. All that atmosphere was making not wanna leave.
_ It�s already late. � commented.
_ I know. Do you wanna leave?
_ Do you want?
looked into her eyes.
_ No... I wanna stay here with you.
He touched �s face and then ran his fingers through her hair.
She looked at him and shivered. got close and kissed her but, that kiss wasn�t any kiss. It was a soft kiss with tenderness. It wasn�t kissing for kissing, it had feelings. felt a little strange �cause he just had met but, with that environment and the smell of the grapes, everything was possible. The night went by and they made love there, at the large vineyard and, at dawn, looked into her eyes and saw his future in them.
_ I wanna be with you. � he whispered.
_ What?
_ I want you to be my girl.
looked at him.
_ I don�t know what to say.
_ Say yes.
_ So... yes!
smiled and then kissed her.
_ I hate to say that but, I have to go.
_ I understand. � he said running his fingers on her face.
_ Hasta luego...
They kissed again and went back home. went back to the hotel and all day long he was quite, thinking about her. At afternoon, he was playing pool with his friends when he had a visit.

He went towards the girl and kissed her.
_ Is everything ok?
_ Yes, , everything is fine.
_ Do you remember the guys?
_ Of course I do. How are you?

and left the room to talk alone.

_ Really?!
_ Yeah. We go to US and then I go back to UK and you can come back home and, when it�s possible, you can visit me and I can come here sometimes. What do you say?
The girl thought a little bit.
_ Ok, I�ll go with you.
After these 3 days she went to US with them and then, every time she could, she went to see in UK. Veronica met a lot of places and lots of people.

The year went by and their first anniversary was near. It was the same day of one of Blue�s concerts so, decided to make a surprise to and called her.
_ Bueno!

_ S�... , is it you?
_ Yeah, babe. Are you ok?

_ That�s it!

_ Great! So, see you Saturday. I miss you!
_ Me too, .

_ I�ll be waiting for you, babe. Bye.
_ Adios.
thought it was weird the way she hung up the phone �cause never said �goodbye� but �see you later�. The following days he took care of the surprise to her with flowers and everything you can imagine.

Saturday came and was all excited about seeing but, the hours were going by and no sign of her. He was getting worried.
_ What�s taking her so long?
_ Easy, mate. Must had been some problem at the airport. She�ll be here in a minute. Come on, we have to get ready �cause we�re gonna be on stage in a few minutes. � tried to comfort him.

The concert started and wasn�t there yet.
�Where�s she? � thought.
After some minutes one of the guys of the staff called him and he discreetly left the stage. realized that everybody was with a weird face looking at him then Max, the guy who called him, started to talk.
_ , I have bad news for you.
_ What happened?
_ You should sit down first.
sat down but wasn�t understanding what was going on.
_ ...
_ Tell me, Max, what�s going on?
_ The plane that took had an accident...
_ What happened?! � asked standing up.
_ It crashed near Monterrey.
_ And how�s ?
_ ... the plane crashed and there were no survivors.
froze and kept starring at Max.
_ I�m really sorry.
didn�t wanna believe in what he was hearing.
_ It can�t be true! Who said that?
_ We called the airport and they informed us.
started to walk around the room, he was impatient then, he saw the flowers he bought to . The guys on stage were doing everything they could to distract the fans waiting for to come back.
_ Where�s ? � asked.
_ If he�s back there making out with , I swear I�ll kill him. � joked.
They started to laugh when suddenly, came back to stage.
_ What happened back there? � asked a bit nervous.
looked him with tears in his eyes then, looked at the fans screaming and finally to the place was supposed to be. He remembered her and her smile when they met. took the microphone. His friends were not understanding what was happening so, he started to sing.
_ �Ahora que ya mi vida se encuentra normal/Que tengo en casa quien sue�a con verme llegar/Ahora puedo decir que me encuentro de pie/Ahora que me va muy bien/Ahora que con el tiempo logre superar/Aquel amor que por poco me llega a matar/Ahora ya no hay mas dolor/Ahora el fin vuelvo a ser yo...�
stopped, no one there was understanding that so, he explained.
_ Tonight was supposed to be a happy night �cause I�d be celebrating my one year anniversary with a wonderful woman but, I�m not happy. A few minutes ago someone said that , my girlfriend, can�t be here tonight. A plane crashed in Mexico and, unfortunately, there was no survivors. My babe, , was in that plane. The arena got quiet, some people started to cry. and put their heads down as was feeling sorry for what he said before. They were all shocked. went on...
_ � Pero me acuerdo de ti y otra vez pierdo la calma/Pero me acuerdo de ti y se me desgarra el alma/Pero me acuerdo de ti y se borra mi sonrisa/Pero me acuerdo de ti y mi mundo se hace trizas...�... I�m sorry but, I can�t go on. This song I dedicate to . � he made a pause � , wherever you are, I love you. dropped the mic and left the stage crying then, called her family and booked a flight to Mexico that same night. Blue cancelled several concerts �cause wasn�t able to go back to work.

After the funeral, went to the field where they met and fell in love. He remembered singing and it was like if he was listening her voice again. He started to cry and went to the large vineyard where they made love for the first time.
_ I can�t believe you�re not here with me, ...
was crying a lot �cause he realized he lost the love of his life. He had no regrets about them, just one thing was bothering him... not have said that night there at the vineyard, that he saw his future in her eyes.
