I burst into the room and sprinted as fast as I could to the bedroom, jumping on it and landing on my stomach with a laugh.

"THE SHEETS! They're so nice!" I squealed, wrapping myself in them. Laroi leant against the doorframe and smiled at me, shaking his head, "Oh shit, I probably shouldn't have messed the bed up, should I?"

"We would've messed it up either way." Laroi winked and I went bright red.

"Hey! Can we order room service in robes? OH! With face masks on?" I grinned, jumping off the bed and grabbing both his hands.

"Sure! If they have face masks-," He laughed. I let go of his hands and dashed into the en suite, flinging open the cabinets, "Did they put something in your burger or-,"

"It's actually 'hamburguesa con lechuga y tomate', but ok, Charlton." I shrugged, suppressing a smile as I extracted the two small pots of face masks from the cabinet.

"Oh yeah, right, sorry." He grinned, "Hey before we do the whole pamper, room service thing, you wanna go to the pool? That'll make us hungry enough for when we get back."

"We can't just go in our clothes." I frowned.

"Like I said-," He opened the cupboard that was next to him and extracted a pair of swimming trunks and a bikini, both a navy blue with the Ritz-Carlton's logo printed small in the corner, "They have everything here." 

"Oh wow, you weren't wrong I guess." I raised my eyebrows, taking the bikini from him and he put an arm around me, "And yet you doubted if they had face masks." 

"Why is it so empty?" I frowned, after I had finished fangirling over the pool and we had claimed sunbeds. 

"People usually come here for business, or dinner, old people stuff. Not many people appreciate the luxuries it has to offer." Laroi smiled, "I can book us in for a spa appointment tomorrow morning if you want. We don't have to leave until two."

"You wouldn't." My eyes widened.

"Say less. It's already done." He grinned, "Come on, you coming in or what?" He held out his hand and I took it, before he swooped me up in his arms and threw me into the pool.

"LAROI!  You dick!" I laughed when I resurfaced, moving the hair out of my face. He was about to jump in after me before my phone started ringing, "Who is it? My mum?" Laroi picked up my phone and looked at it.

"'Elly'." Laroi shrugged, showing me the phone.

"Oh shit, Elly!" My eyes widened, getting out of the pool, "She's my friend. I better answer it." I nodded, taking the phone from him and answering it, "Elly!"

"Lana! I just saw the article about you and Laroi! That's crazy!" She sounded so excited, "You're still with him?"

"Yeah, we're at a hotel." I grinned. Laroi crossed his arms over his chest and observed me carefully. 

"Holy shit! Which one?" Elly gasped.

"Ritz-Carlton." I told her.

"Fucking hell. He must like you a lot." She laughed, "Has he asked you to be his girlfriend yet? 

"No, not yet." I pursed my lips.

"Okay, well, as soon as you're not with him, you're coming round and UPDATING ME, okay?" Elly squealed.

"Of course." I beamed.

"I'll leave you with lover boy. Have fun!" She said.

"Thank you! Speak to you soon!"

"Bye!" She hung up and I put my phone away again. 

"Does Elly live here?" Laroi asked.

"Yeah, I met her when I moved. She's like... my only friend." I shrugged, "She's really cool." 

"Well, you, me, her, Thomas and Dylan should all get together sometime. Should be fun." Laroi nodded. 

"That sounds good." I agreed. We stood looking at each other for a bit before I looked him up and down, and shoved him into the pool.

"This bitch has no fucking friends." I moaned into my pillow, not wanting to look through her mutuals any longer, "None that post of her anyways." I sat up straight again, grabbing my phone, "Come on... Elly Cooper. Give me something." 

I clicked onto the girl's account and looked through her highlights. Fucking nothing. Until I got to the last picture of the last highlight, Lana was tagged in it, I observed it carefully. It was a picture of the view from the Hollywood sign. Then, I saw her, stood in the corner, a little far from the camera. I screenshotted it and went to my camera roll to zoom in on it.

From what I could make out, she was gorgeous. Really nice smile. She looked so... natural. I chewed my tongue. 

What could I do? I couldn't reach out to her, that would be too weird, and she'd probably bring it up to Laroi. I wonder if Laroi's said anything about me-

She needed to post, anything. A story, a post, just something. That way I could find a way to connect to her without appearing strange. 

"TYLER!" I shouted. He came to the doorway.

"Mhm?" He asked.

"How does a trip to LA sound?"
