The doorbell woke Paloma up before the alarm could. Grumbling to her self, she climbed out of bed and stalked to the door just as the doorbell peeled again this time accompanied by loud banging.

“Aright, hold on!” Paloma yelled unlatching the deadbolt then opened the door on an annoyed looking Ana.

“Care to explain… what happened to your face?!” she grabbed Paloma’s face and turned her towards the sunlight ‘Did Lucas hit you?!” Ana practically screeched

Frowning Paloma walked to the small mirror hanging on the wall and gasped when she noticed the bruise on the left side of her face from when she had fell last night. Looking at her knee, she frowned when she noticed there was a bruise there too as well as her left elbow and her left hip.

“Did.He.Hit.You?” Ana questioned again from inside the front door

“No,” Paloma sighed “I fell as I was running down your steps last night”

“Why were you running?” Ana asked frowning

“Never mind that, what are you doing here so early?” Paloma asked instead

“We were supposed to be at the harbor an hour ago, when you didn’t show up I insisted on coming to find you” She crossed her arms “But now I’m sure you won’t want to go, and it’s entirely my brother’s fault”

“No, its j-just I have so many things to get in order with your wedding and the Smyth-Harriman wedding”

“Pish, you don’t have to lie to me, I know you and I know my brother”

“But-“

“If you don’t go, I’m not going either” Ana walked into the living and sat down on the couch “we can both play hooky and watch some soaps” Ana kicked off her shoes and turned the television on.

Paloma groaned to herself knowing she had no choice but to go now. Michael had a surprise for her and he had planned on giving it to her on the Titan yacht. She had no right to ruin Michael’s plans.

‘Fine, I’ll go” she groaned to Ana who immediately jumped up from the couch

“Perfect but first we need to hide that bruise” she opened her cavernous tote bag and began to pull out various makeup bottles.

Shaking her head Paloma walked back into her room and towards the bathroom to shower. “Somehow she planned this” Paloma grumbled as she stepped into the shower “Just not sure how”

An hour later they pulled up beside the Titan yacht. Ramon opened the door for them and waited to Ana was already walking towards the gangplank before speaking to Paloma “I hope you are feeling better miss”

Paloma smiled at Ramon who had been a chauffer for the Titans forever it seemed like. He used to drive Ana and her back and forth from either girl’s homes or to the Bronx Zoo or the Botanical Gardens.
