We got out of the pool and headed inside. We covered ourselves with towels that were neatly placed on the lounge chairs outside. Egon and Alex went without getting wet and my girl was able to fool me.

We got into the house and settled in the lounge near the massive stairs. I sat down next to Cel and placed my arm around her.

"So, what's the deal with you two?" Margo asked, looking right at us. I smiled and looked down to my lap.

"I..." Ce began to say but struggled to find the right words.

"We're not sure. I guess you could say we're taking it slow." Egon chuckled.

"Yeah right." I shot him a deadly glare. "I mean, whatever works for you." I nodded.

"When did you get here?" Ce asked Egon.

"This morning. I'm actually visiting this hot piece of meat," he looked at me and I smiled. "We don't see each other very much so I figured why not." Ce nodded. "You know, you made quite the impression among the Martinelli." She nodded.

"I know. Francesco wants to kill me."

"Not only that but Val hates you and I'm pretty sure that Riella isn't going to like you. Although, Alessia likes you and the two youngsters do too."

"Riella is your sister right?" He nodded. "Why did you say that she won't like me?"

"She's the most stubborn and bossy person I've met in my life," I answered, Egon nodded.

"She likes the spotlight and never liked any girls that neither he nor I brought. Although," he stopped for a second and glanced at me.

"Riella loved Sophie. She became best friends with her and hates me since I killed her." I continued.

"But as much as I love her since she's my sister, I think that you'll ruffle her feathers by a lot." She chuckled. "But if this ever goes somewhere, be careful around her. She'll do anything to get her way."

"She's the one that should be worried. One wrong word and she's out. I don't play like that." Egon smiled.

"I get why you like her." I smiled. I never thought that I'd be into her because she's so independent but she's perfect.

Better than that. It's insane how quick my type had changed.

"Alright, well, I want to go to bed." Margo stood up. "Hun, if you need anything, just tell me. And don't forget about Thursday." Ce nodded and I began to think that was something that Ce wanted to tell me about. But in reality, if it was important enough, she would tell me. Alex stood up and went after Margo.

"Have a nice evening, amigos!"

"So they're dating," Laura said.

"Yeah, I was wondering why they got so close." She nodded.
