Simone's POV

"I think I got it." I say as I put down the paint brush. I hear rounds of sighs and I laugh standing up to turn the easel around to show them.

"Oh my god! That looks incredible!" Charlotte exclaims and my smile grew bigger at the reactions I'm getting. My eyes shifted to Harry and all I could see is a small smile playing on his lips. Good enough for me.

He then looks up to me and I pretend to look elsewhere. Gosh, I don't like it when I get caught staring at people. A little too long.

"But there's something missing though." Mitch mumbles frowning at the portrait.

It was my turn to frown. What's missing? I think it's perfect. Ego.

Pete gasps, "Oh! I know! It's Sims!" Pete says as a matter of fact, and I roll my eyes.

"I don't really need to be in the painting. I made it thats enough existence already." I say shrugging my shoulders. It's not really that big of a deal.

"No, that ain't happening. Let me work on it." Adam refuses and turns the easel around again. He sat down on my stool and lifted the paint brush. I frown, also a little worried because this is the first time someone's touching up my paintings.

Minutes felt like hours and now, Adam moves away from the painting and I walk over to it. What I am seeing right now, is making my heart flutter so much.

Adam managed to create another figure. It was me in front of them, cross sitting and holding a paint brush.

I look up at Adam, and slowly make my way over to him to give him a quick hug.

"I didn't know you could paint. There's a different artist inside of you." I smile and he laughs shaking his head.

"Just a little bit." He says nodding his head.

"I will take a picture of this." Sarah excitedly walks over to the painting and started taking several photos of it.

"Now what's next?" Naomi asks.

I look at Harry, waiting for a signal for our next escapade. I really enjoy their company and I'm not gonna waste their limited time here.

Harry looks at me.

"Do you have any other places we could visit?" He asks me directly. I bit my lip, trying to think of a place that's open and we could really enjoy.

My eyes widen as I think of a great idea.

"Bighorn Mountains." I answer earning an applause from Pete.

"Come on! We gotta catch it! It's a forty-five minute away drive!" Pete claps his hand frantically. I laugh because he always gets excited when we go to Bighorn.

He walks out of the shop first and just like that, everyone follows behind him. Harry helped me to close the studio and I told him I'm fine doing it alone but he insisted.

"What are we trying to catch at the mountains?" Harry perks up a question as we step inside my car.

"I hope it's not wild animals." Sarah says and I look at her through the rearview and I can see the face she's making. I laugh shaking my head as I buckled up my seatbelt.
