Oliver walked towards his room with Amelia on his back, occasionally mumbling a few words.

"You know, I'd cross the oceans for you," Oliver softly said, turning his head to see Amelia's face. Amelia mumbled something incomprehensible in reply. He opened his room, only to find Sienna and Liam sleeping on the same bed. He halted suddenly, Amelia stirred in reply. The brownish haired boy stared at the odd sight for more than he needed to before setting Amelia down on a spare couch and throwing a blanket over the two dressed but asleep young adults.

Amelia blinked her eyes, trying to make out where she was as she woke up. Her eyes landed on Sienna, sleeping in Liam's arms. A yell was forced down her throat as she saw a panicking Oliver telling her to shush. The two left the room as quiet as possible.

"How much did I miss?" Amelia said, still a little dizzy. Oliver shrugged with a smile.

"I mean, they're both fully dressed,"

"Let's go back to my room tonight," Oliver went back in to grab a set of clothes for tomorrow and the two headed back to Amelia's room.

In the morning, Amelia changed into comfortable clothes before hearing a knock. A grumpy Sienna greeted her, her hair still in good shape but she was no longer in the clothes she wore yesterday, but instead a long t-shirt that definitely didn't look like hers.

"Why the long look?" Amelia teased as she finished packing up.

"I was drunk. Last night shouldn't have happened,"

"Sienna, honey, you can't live in denial forever," Amelia stood in front of the mirror, arranging stray pieces of hair. Oliver came out from the bathroom and causally greeted Sienna.

"Woah there, hold up-" Sienna did a double take.

"What happened here?"

"We'll get to that later," Oliver replied, winking at Amelia before picking up one of his socks from the chair where he had left it last night.

"He was a jerk, a douche, but he's really wants you back. And don't you dare tell me you don't love him," Amelia said. She passed by Oliver and made the bed that used to belong to Sienna. She had slept on that one and Oliver had slept on her bed last night.

Sienna didn't say anything in reply.

They went to the London eye and had lunch around the area. The Millennium Wheel was just as fun as it looked. They went in groups of four, overlooking the views as the wheel turned. Having extra time in the afternoon before their plans to take the channel tunnel to Paris, they strolled through the streets and the markets, occasionally stopping to buy little things. Amelia smiled as she eyed Sienna, a familiar necklace with purple gem hanging off her neck.

"Where did Liam go?" Amelia suddenly asked, not seeing the other boy anywhere in sight. Oliver smiled and winked at her.

"He's in charge of our luggages today and went to Paris first,"

"How nice of him," Amelia replied with an eyebrow raised. Oliver gave her a knowing smile.

They arrived at Paris at dusk. The sun setting casting a warm orange glow over the city of love. The four were in front of the Eiffel Tower, sitting on the steps. Amelia leaned her head on Oliver's shoulder, Oliver's hand wrapped around her waist.

"This is nice," Amelia popped the last pink macaron in her mouth. Oliver took the empty box and folded it, taking it in his hands.

"You know what's more nice?" Sienna looked like she had something to say and Amelia did not like that look. "If you guys would just get together already! You already act like a couple and all it takes is for someone to confess-"
