Aurelia's POV:
"I hope this is okay", Jack says as we enter his home. "This is perfect", I smile as I look around. "I would've gotten you a hotel, but it was sort of last minute", he says as he places my bags down, rubbing the back of his neck. "Like I said, it's perfect", I reassure him. He smiles down at me and opens his arms. "Come here", he says softly, and I walk into his arms. His warm scent swallows me whole as he wraps his arms around me.
As we rock back and forth, I close my eyes and just enjoy the moment. I think back to my flight and how I basically decided that I'm going to allow everything that happens naturally here, happen. I'm not going to try to fight it. My feelings are already too strong, and I don't know why. "Hey, I was thinking that I could take you to one of my favorite spots for dinner", he suggests.
I open my eyes and look up at him. "And where would that be?", I ask. He looks into my eyes and says, "This place called Seviche. It's a Latin American place and they have the best empanadas and mashed potatoes", he starts gushing. I laugh and he rolls his eyes. "I'm serious, they'll change your life. Plus, I know the host and chef personally and he's the best, so he'll treat us right", he nods.
"Okay I'm down", I tell him as I wrap my arms around his neck, standing on my toes so I can reach. "I'll let you get settled in and get ready, then we'll go", he says before picking me up, my legs immediately wrapping themselves around his waist. "How are you gonna pick me up after saying you'll let me get settled", I laugh. "I'm gonna walk you to the guest room", he smirks as he lets go of me causing my grip around him to get tighter.
He grabs my bags and walks us to the guest room. "There's a bathroom just through that door and I'm right down the hall if you need anything", he says as we enter the room. He places my bags down on the ground before gently placing me down on the bed. "Make yourself at home, El. I'll be in the living room if you need anything", he says before kissing my head.
"When do you want me to be ready by?", I ask him before he exits the room. "Like I said, I know the chef and told him to expect us at some point tonight. He said he'd reserve a section for us. Just come out whenever you're ready", he smiles and shrugs. I nod my head and look down at my hands. As soon as I hear him leave the room, I lay back and grab one of the pillows, screaming into it as I kick my feet.
After my little moment, I grab my phone and immediately FaceTime Melodie. "Are you already in Louisville?", is the first thing she asks me once she answers. I look at her surroundings and see that she's still on set. "Am I on speaker?", I ask. She nods and shows Mads and Drew. "Hey Lia!", they both wave. "Wait, is Oph there?", I ask excitedly. "Hey babes", I hear Ophelia's voice.
Mel turns her phone and shows Ophelia laying in Drew's lap. "Hey my love", I wave. "So spill! Are you in Louisville?", she asks again. "Yep, and I'm at his place", I cover my face with one hand. "What?!", they all yell excitedly. "Shh, calm down", I laugh. "Girl, you better work", Mads says. "You got a flight and you're staying at his place, you're doing the damn thing", Mel nods.
I shake my head and roll my eyes playfully. "And he's taking me out to dinner at one of his favorite spots", I tell them. They all cheer and clap for me. "Is his favorite place like a fast-food joint?", Mel laughs. "No, it's a Latin American place", I shrug as I get up and start looking through my bags for an outfit. "Dress sexy", Mel winks. "You know I will", I smirk. I hear some voices out in the distance.
