To say Diego’s life had been confusing lately, would be an understatement. He had no idea where he fit in his life, and everything had been a complete mess. Prom night was its own can of worms, with everything from finding out about not being who he thought he was in his family, to the Phoebe situation, which she was still avoiding him.
Things only got more confusing when Diego got his DNA results back. Ricky was truly his brother, despite having been adopted, but Raph was still his half brother, with the same father? How did that make any sense? Diego still couldn’t wrap his mind around it. In addition, that same DNA test told him who his, and Enrique’s, biological mother was. How was he supposed to react to learning who she is when he just found out he wasn’t who he thought? Did Enrique know who she was? Diego would’ve imagined he would’ve said something if he knew. Either way, Diego wasn’t so sure he wanted to think about his biological mother’s identity until he had the chance to talk with his brother. If only his dear brother would stop avoiding him too…
Anyway, the flight to France was mostly uneventful on his part. Just… Logan ignoring him when he tried talking to her across the aisle to see if she would talk to his brother for him… but after getting to France and getting settled in, the Phoebe Taylor-DeLoughrey herself approached him. Maybe she wasn’t avoiding him then? Maybe it was just in his head? He had been in his head a lot recently… with his whole family situation and everything…
Though, things took another turn when everyone began to gather for a game, a cerulean high classic, Dare or Drink. For once, Diego actually was in the same place as his brother, but alas, the game was not exactly the place or time to have the conversation he needed to with his brother, but it needed to happen soon.
First, Mason dared Diego to run his tongue from VC’s collarbone, to her earlobe. That was out of nowhere. Typically Diego’s first instinct wouldn’t be to do anything with his brother’s ex, but this was a game and points were on the line, anyone would understand. VC didn’t seem against it, so Diego went for it, doing exactly as he was dared to do, then turning to another girl and telling her to send a dirty text to her crush.
By the time he returned to where he was previously sitting, he noticed Phoebe had left, but it wasn’t for long, and his attention returned to her by the time of Elio’s dare. Everyone could see that she was very into his dare, but that didn’t change when he dared her to kiss her favorite part of his body, and she responded to an extent, wanting to “keep it innocent”. Diego could see how she had been looking at Elio through the whole game, and the way she reacted to each of their dares. It certainly didn’t make Diego feel any better about the situation between them, even after taking a drink.
