6:45 PM Monday

Scott had reserved an entire Japanese restaurant; The five of them were the first ones there. The restaurant that Scott chose was a really nice restaurant, all five of them were gazing at all the decorations. "How the hell do we have the money for all this?", asked Chase.

The orchestra slowly started to fill the restaurant, a hostess sat the 5 down at a table and gave Lucky a high chair. Scott walked over to their table and asked, "How was your shopping spree?". "It was good.", said Sam. "Was there anybody else out there?", asked Scott. "Well, there was Amber.", said Chase. "Yeah...", Eugene said, kind of hesitant to say anymore. "Is there something wrong?", asked Scott. "Well, We were eating in the food court peacefully till she walked up to our table and started yelling at us for no reason.", explained Eugene. "What did she say?", asked Scott. "She was acting like she was our parent or chaperone.", said Eugene. "Then she started bad-talk Lucky.". Scott shook his head and said, "I'm gonna go talk to her.". Amber was a few tables away from them; she was sitting with two others and was talking and laughing very loudly. Scott walked over to her and started talking to her; whatever Scott told Amber, she didn't take the message well. Scott then walked back to Eugene's table, "I can't with her", he said, "I told her that she needs to control herself and to leave you guys alone.". "SCOTT!", Amber yelled, her yelling caught most of the restaurant's attention. Scott sighed and walked over to Amber's table. "Bro, what a bitch.", said Chase, under his breath. "Tell me about it.", Sam replied. "Do you remember when she stopped the entire orchestra and then she made an entire spiel about our tuning?", asked Azure. "Dude, that was so fucking stupid.", Eugene replied. "Then she brags about how she has perfect pitch, I do too but I don't wave it around like a flag in the wind.". "She started to question me about my instrument and that I should get a better one.", said Sam. "Shouldn't I be doing that?", asked Eugene. "Last time I checked, she's not a certified teacher nor has an education degree, and nor she ain't a luthier". "Where do you teach?", asked Chase. "I teach at a music shop.", said Eugene. "Why at a music shop?", asked Azure. "They were looking for music teachers, so I chipped in.", said Eugene. "How do you know the people working there know what they're doing.", asked Sam. "Do you remember when Lucky got that huge crack on his cello from the temperature?", asked Eugene. "Yeah.", replied Sam. Eugene then showed a photo of Lucky's cello after it got fixed. "How long since you got it fixed?", asked Sam. "Almost a year, I haven't had problems with it since.", said Eugene. "Well, I'll be!", said Sam. "Plus, they hooked me up with a new bridge for my cello and it sounds a lot better than the one it had before.", said Eugene. "Well, I'll give it to ya.", said Sam. "All the shit that she's doing will come right back at her.", said Eugene. Amber then said something to Scott, he obviously didn't wanna hear the rest of what she had to say so he held his hand out and walked away. Amber then gave Eugene a mean glare, Eugene stuck his tongue out in response. Amber obviously didn't like that response and stormed over to Eugene and said, "Listen, kid, haven't your parents taught you respe-", Eugene cut her off by saying, "I'm not a kid, we're both adults here. If you're gonna act like a child, I'll treat you like one.". Eugene kept his cool, Amber seemed offended by Eugene's response. "I'm gonna make you pay.", snarled Amber with her teeth clenched. "Do it, I ain't taking shit from you.", said Eugene in a low voice but maintaining a stern tone. "Mark my words.", she snarled then she huffed back to her table. Eugene turned over to the others and they were all staring at him. "Good on you for keeping your cool, Eugene.", said Sam. "This is the worst she's ever been.", said Eugene, taking a breath. "Well, you're taking her behavior really well.", said a voice. It was Dimitri, he was sitting at the table next to them. "How much did you hear?", asked Azure. "Most of it.", said Dimitri. "She'll probably get over it.". For the times Eugene had trusted Dimitri in his words, this time, he trusted no one.

It was about 10 o'clock at night when they all arrived back at the hotel. Quiet time was at 10:45 PM and bedtime was whenever you wanted on free days. Eugene went back up to his room and set up a small security camera and hid it. Lucky passed out the second he hit the bed and into Eugene's arms. Eugene also passed out the second he hit the bed. They were both extremely tired. Lucky and Eugene slept together, peacefully.
