"VALENTINE!" yelled someone from above.

It was just a few more seconds before she would run out of air. She tried to swim up for air, but she just couldn't...

"VALENTINE!" she heard another person yell her name. She closed her eyes before she heard a splash in the water.

She felt somebody swimming up, bringing her to the surface. Somebody was doing CPR on her. She was unconscious but she felt everything. Suddenly Valentine spat out some water.

"Val!" she heard Nikki's voice.

It was far away but close at the same time...

"Val! Please wake up!" she heard Nikki's voice again.

She wanted to scream but she couldn't...finally she heard another familiar voice. "Come on Valentine wake up." suddenly she opened her eyes. In front of her were all her friends.

"Thank you so much sir for helping our friend!" Thanked Mia. "No problem. Just tell her not to swim in places she can't swim again."

The guy said. She couldn't make out his voice...it was familiar, but it also wasn't...

"Valentine I'm so glad you're ok!" said Nikki hugging Valentine.

"What even happened?!" asked Celeste. "Well, I don't know...I was playing Marco Polo, and somebody was behind me and then..." she stopped talking. "Huh? What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?" asked Celeste shaking Valentine.

"Who wasn't above the water?... during that time?" asked Valentine. "Uhm...everyone was..." Deliah said, sounding hesitant. "Leylani and Nikki were talking above the water, Mia and Kiara was in a corner playing with us, Celeste was behind you, and Tina and I were talking at the edge of the pool." explained Deliah.

"Well, that doesn't make sense...I was pulled by something under the water!" said Valentine. "Oh... hm.." said Deliah shaking her head. "That's very confusing-but all that matters is you are ok!" said Nikki smiling...something about that smile just seemed off.

"Now. I swear if this bad luck that's happening at my party doesn't end right now, I'm fighting someone!" she facepalmed herself and got up. Nikki helped Valentine up and they smiled. "We better stay away from dangerous things... let's just talk!" said Tina. "Yeah, it would be much better if nobody got hurt!" laughed Kiara

They all laughed and started talking with each other. Valentine was still confused. If nobody was under the water, then who pulled her down?

Time goes by and they all go to a restaurant and eat some food there when they were done, they all wave goodbye to each other.
Valentine was still a bit shaken up from in the pool, luckily after all that the spotlight was all on Nikki. She talked to her afterward and said it was one of the best parties she went to.

She said that she got free drama, her best friend with her, and amazing food. But she also mentioned something about meeting a hot guy by the pool. Was she talking about the guy who helped her? Valentine didn't really care at that moment and when she got home, she fell asleep in an instant.

•~The next day~•
The party hangover was kicking in now. She was not ready for work today.

"Urgh..." she moaned as she got out of bed and started her morning routine. She finally got to her car and drove to the hotel. Today she had to be extra nice. Since she could get fired and didn't want Leylani to expose her secrets.

She wasn't there when Valentine almost drowned. It's kind of weird...But it's nothing to worry about since Nikki says that Leylani was talking with her during that time. She got to the hotel and put on her best smile and a good mood.
