Rylee's POV-
"Rylee!" I heard someone yell.
I got up, but soon regretted it. My head was pounding. I blinked a few times to calm down. I turned and saw Logan sitting on my bed.
"How did you get in?" I asked, confused.
"Kyle gave me a spare key," He replied, twirling the key around his finger.
"Here, take an advil," He said and passed me the glass of water along with it.
I gladly swallowed it.
"Where's Kyle?" I asked, yawning and stretching my legs.
"Oh, he is in my car, sleeping. We wanted to go to Madrid for a long time now so I booked two tickets. I asked my boss and he allowed it," Logan replied sheepishly.
I rubbed my eyes and nodded.
"Oh, okay."
Wait...they were going to Madrid?
My eyes flew open.
"What?! And when were you planning on tell me that?"
"It slipped my mind yesterday," he said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"You'll be fine alone, right?"
"Of course. I am a 24 year-old adult," I whined, offended.
He chuckled. "You don't act like it."
I glared at him and smacked his arm.
"We will be gone for a week. Bye," He said and kissed my cheek.
"Bye! Stay safe and have fun!" I yelled.
He waved at me and walked away.
I decided to take the day off as well. I switched on my phone and called Tobias.
"Good morning, boss."
"Toby, I'm taking the day off. Do you mind-"
"Nah, I'll take care of all the work, don't worry," He cut me off, "Have fun. You deserve this."
Smiling, I hung up.
I decided to have some me-time today and pamper myself.
I dialed a number on my phone.
"Hello, is this the 'Queens Salon'?" I asked.
"Yes ma'am. How may I help you?" A feminine voice spoke.
"I need to book an appointment for 12 p.m."
"Sure ma'am. Manicure or pedicure?"
I thought about it. "Both, and also a facial."
"Okay, ma'am. Under what name?" She asked.
"Rylee Schmidt."
I took a shower and washed my hair. I chose my a floral white dress and white heels with studs.
I quickly made oat meals and wolfed it down my throat.
I dashed out of the house, locking it as I ran. I swiftly got on my bike, my beloved Harley, and rode it to the salon.
Parking my bike near the deserted area, I walked into the salon and went up to the receptionist.
"Hi, there is a reservation booked under my name- Rylee Schmidt," I said.
She saw me and her eyes lightly widened.
"You are Rylee Schmidt? Like, the owner of the Technox Industries?" She asked incredulously.
I nodded and a wide smile etched on her face.
She looked through the record book.
"Oh yes, ma'am. Manicure, pedicure and a facial. Please follow me," She instructed and led me inside a room.
I sat down on the cushiony seat while a lady manicured my nails and another pedicured my foot.
I decided to paint my nails a soft pastel color.
I paid the money and walked out. I drove home and plopped on the sofa. I decided to watch 'To all the boys I've loved before'. I had watched it a hundred times yet I never got bored of it. I got a scoop of chocolate ice-cream and nachos and made my self comfortable on the sofa. Not before changing into my pjs of course.
I watched it for 2 hours straight. I check the time- 8:30 p.m.
My eyes widened.
8:30 was my dinner time.
I quickly booked a table in one of the top restaurants online and got dressed into a red, satin dress and black heels.
I got in my car and drove to the restaurant. Many people widened their eyes when the saw me, and few walked up to me and shook my hand.
I ordered garlic fried rice and dumplings along with a glass of red wine. I ate my food, taking my own sweet time. I was enjoying pampering myself.
I called Kyle.
"Hey girl, what's up?" He asked.
"Nothing, eating dinner out."
"Great. Logan and I are swimming in the pool."
"What? It is 10 p.m. and you guys are swimming?!" I half-yelled.
"Calm down, Ryl. We're in different continents, remember? If it's 10 p.m. in Sydney, then it would be approximately noon in Madrid. Swimming is fun. Plus, we are gonna have a lot fun throughout night too," He said.
I bet he was grinning like an idiot right now.
"Hey babe, who are you talking to?" I heard Logan ask.
"Ryl," Kyle replied.
"Oh, give it to me!" Logan yelled, "Hey Rylee! How are you?"
"Fine. Have fun you guys. Specially at night," I teased.
I swear he was blushing.
"Oh, stop it you. Anyways, I'll talk to you later, bye!" "Bye Logan." I hung up. I paid the bill and made my way home.
When I stepped into my room, it felt weird, in a bad way. The atmosphere felt eerie and cold. I shrugged it off. I went into the washroom and changed into comfy pajamas.
I put my hair in a messy bun and brushed my teeth and dashed to bed. I was hella tired so I slept almost immediately.
I woke up after 2 hours- it was 1 a.m. I needed to pee badly. I walked to the washroom and did my business and looked in the mirror.
I spotted a dark silhouette outside the bathroom, near my bed.
I huge shriek left my mouth and before I could turn around, the person came closer.
