Your pov:

As Gordon and I arrived at the [location], were greeted by Kia, Dallas, and Ian who were waiting for us.

"Did the problem get solved?" Dallas inquired as he took a sip of his water.

Just as I was about to sit down, Kia asked, "How's the wine, babe?" I paused for a moment, taken aback, and asked, "Wait, how did you know?"

As Gordon and I exchanged glances, silently questioning Ian had revealed anything, Ian defended himself, saying, "I swear I did not say anything to them. When I got here, they already knew it all," resembling an innocent cat caught in the act.

Seated next to Kia, I couldn't resist asking, "How did you know?" Dallas revealed, "Direct is the one who spilled it. He said you killed the vibe out there. How I wish I was there," his expression filled with regret.

The seating arrangement found Kia on my left side, Gordon on my right side, while Ian sat to the left of Dallas,

Lizzy arrived with a giggle, apologizing for heriness and teasing, "You killed the vibe out there, [Name]. Everyone turned the party into a bar."

As the waiter approached our table, ready to take our orders, we gave lizzy our orders, Lizzy swiftly suggested, "4 iced Americanos and 2 lattes, please." The waiter acknowledged the request with a polite nod, responding, "Coming right up, ma'am and sir,"

As the evening advanced to 8 pm, kia took charge, announcing,  "It's already 8 pm, everyone. We should head back to the hotel since we will start filming tomorrow at 6 am."

Expressing his dismay at the early call time, Ian remarked, "Gosh, that's too early, kia." In response, Kia playfully chided, "Don't complain in front of me. Go talk to the producer,” Ian sighed heavily and said, “okay I'm sorry just keep chill”

Gordon pov:

As we walked, I noticed that [Name] didn't seem alright. Concerned, I asked, , "How many glasses have you had?” She raised her index finger in response. I gently held her and whispered, "How come you're so drunk?"

Before she could finish her sentence, she paused, realizing the possible mistake."Maybe the wine was too strong. Oh yeah, speaking of wi-" Wait, was that wine?”

Engaged in a heated argument behind Kia, Dallas, and Lizzy, [Name] and I had a private exchange, while Ian accompanied us,

Ian pov:

Damn there parents should pay me for taking care of their kid

Curiosity struck as I inquired,"Wait, everyone, do we have rooms? Oh, and [Name], you have a hotel room, right?"

Your pov:

With a playful tone, I looked at Ian and quipped, “No that wasn't mine, that was my stylish's hotel room” Just then, Kia's phone chimed with a new message. Startled, she glanced at the screen before addressing us, "Guys?"

Turning our attention to Kia, dallas asked,"What's wrong?"  With a hint of concern, Kia revealed the unexpected news, "We're at the wrong hotel. The hotel room that our manager got is in 2 hours away."

In the midst of the realization that we were in the wrong hotel, Lizzy exclaimed, "We're just finding out now that were in the wrong hotel? This is so screwed up."

Thinking quickly, Kia suggested, "Let's just take a room here," and confidently made her way to the front desk. Politely inquiring, she asked the receptionist, "excuse me. Good evening, Are there any available rooms here?"

After a brief check, the receptionist returned, informing us,“there are only 3 rooms left."  We swiftly decided to take those rooms, and with the keys in hand, we proceeded towards the elevator,

As we gathered to assign rooms, it became apparent that there were only 3 rooms. The 2 rooms had 1 bed while the other 1 room had 2 beds, and it was decided that only 2 people would occupy that 1 room that has 2 beds.

Ian quickly volunteered, "I'll go with Dally."

Dallas then suggested, "Okay, I think [Name] and Gordon should sleep in that room."

Amused by the suggestion, Lizzy chimed in, "Wait, that's a good idea," with a teasing tone as she giggled mischievously.

Caught off guard by the arrangement, I looked at Gordon with a mixture of surprise

With a lighthearted tone, Kia reassured, It's okay, it's just for one night. Besides, you'll be taking the room with 2 beds," as she giggled at the situation.

Musing over the arrangement, the thought of sharing a room for just one night brought a mix of nerves on me. Trying to ease the tension, I chuckled, and said to myself, Right, just one night. These won't be awkward, right? Hahaha, this is not good,

Gordon pov:

"l mean like it's okay for me but sleeping in the same room with a girl, but is she okay with it?, bet it's gonna be awkward"

As the elevator doors opened with a "ding," the plan for room assignments was. "Okay, [Name], these will be both your rooms, 649. Room 643 is ours, while Dallas and Ian will be in room 640. If you need anything, just call us, okay?" Kia explained before we parted ways.

Nodding in understanding, we went down the left hallway, heading towards our designated rooms, while the rest of the group made their way down the right hallway to their accommodations.

So basically in the left hallway is room 646-650 while the in the right hallway is room 640-645.

Lizzy pov:

Kia inquired,"is Gordon and [Name] going to alright out there?"

Ian, casting a glance at kia, chuckled before confidently stating, "They're both doing good right now."

Curious, Kiaquestioned Ian, "How can you be so sure?"

With a smirk, Ian responded, " you dumb or what? Of course, it would have been awkward if I was in Gordon's place. So, they're both good because I think none of them would start the conversation."

Your pov:

As Gordon and I walked in silence, only the sound of my "noisy" heels echoed in the hallway, breaking the quiet atmosphere.

Lost in my, I mused, "Thought my manager got me a room. Oh yeah, how would he know that I'm going to stay overnight at the wrong hotel? I'm so dumb,"

Unexpectedly, Gordon broke the silence, initiating a conversation, "Hey, co-star, maybe we should get to know each other."

"Sure, yeah," I responded, feeling a sense of comfort as if we had known each other for a long time, despite having just met an hour ago.

Politely, I requested, "Please call me [Name]."
 
"Okay, co-star," Gordon replied, playfully running to the door and waiting for me to open it,
