Vacation in Costa Rica with your Boyfriend Lando, your best friend Alex, who is also a good friend of Lando, and a few of Lando's friends. Everything is planned. When you arrived yesterday, you decided over dinner that you would rent bikes today and ride around a bit.
You drive in front. Lando, Alex and the others drive behind you and laugh at one of Alex's jokes. You met Lando through him, at a party.
When you hear loud music you steer your bike to the left. You stop your bike in front of a fruit and vegetable shop. On the opposing side a little further up there is a tent with a small wooden grandstand in front of it. There are older people dancing with each other.*
"Do you want fruit or what?" Alex asks you with a laugh. "No! I want to dance!" You answer and take Lando's and Alex's hands. Then you drag them to the small tent.
The song 'La Bomba - King Africa' just started and you jump on the small grandstand. The older people leave and Alex follows you while Lando stays downstairs with the others, smiling.
If there's one thing you have in common with Alex, it's that you're never embarrassed in front of crowds. With his sunglasses on his nose, he thinks he's even cooler than he is.
You start dancing to the song. People stop and watch you two, laughing or taking videos, while other young people join you on the grandstand and try to imitate you.
You laugh loudly as Alex calls out “Sexy mami!” from the song and points to a woman standing in front of the grandstand. Lando shakes his head with a laugh and leans against a palm tree that is next to him.
His eyes travel up and down your body. Every move you make makes him fall in love with you even more. His smile turned into a grin. "They're crazy, those two." Conner says from the side, making Lando laugh again.
When the song was over, you and Alex bowed, laughing, and jumped off the grandstand. Lando reaches out to you with a smile, still leaning against the palm tree.
