The morning sun shined into her eyes. She squeezed her eyes and she struggled to open them. Arizona opened her eyes and she saw herself on her bed, covered with a duvet and she was naked. She sat on the bed and she covered herself. She looked around the room and on the bed but sw saw no one. She immediately picked her cloth from the floor and she wore it.
She was feeling anxious and she didn't know who she slept with last night. She widened her eyes when she remembered what had happened last night. She slapped herself very hard and she just couldn't believe what happened.
Rocky entered the room with a cup of lemonade. He was not wearing a shirt, only trouser which showed his muscular body. He had a bright smile and walked closer to her.
She flinched at his sight and she jumped on the bed and she covered her face with the duvet. She was so terrified at what happened. She promised herself never to drink again.
Rocky gave out a laugh. He sat beside her, on the bed. He dropped the drink at the small table next to the bed.
"It's okay Arizona, you don't have to feel shy about it." He kept smiling and he was filled with joy.
"What happened last night?" She squeezed her face and she felt more stupid.
"What I have always wanted." He smiled again. "When we went abroad, you had kissed me and you said I was your next choice. I am going to allow myself to be used by you. That's how much I am in love with you."
She sighed and she felt her heart flutter. She dropped the duvet and she faced opposite him.
"Lok Rocky." She cleared her throat, "what happened between us, last night. It was a big mistake. Let us forget about it."
"I knew you would say this. Forget about Darien, he was your first option." He smiled again.
"Don't cross all the line Rocky!" She squeezed her face.
"He was your first but he isn't in th picture. You have to move to your second. Drink this and come outside." He still had that smile.
She sighed and she stared at him. She was frustrated trying to explain. He was far crazy about her.
"I am going to do something else again. This time it is not a mistake." Arizona eyes him and she was confused.
He moved closer to her and she was moving backwards. He dragged her by her waist and he gave her a quick peck. He gave that smile again and he left, without uttering a word.
Arizona was confused, she wondered what just happened. She enjoyed it while it lasted and she didn't feel angry at him. She took the cup and she gulp it into her mouth.

"Today is Saturday. Which means by this time next week, it is Drake's inauguration." Darien passed th bow of rice to her.
"Yeah." She sadly said and she collected it.
"Are you okay?" He asked with a worried voice. He sat beside her on the couch.
"I'm fine." She faked a smile.
"You..." She got a call.
It was Emily's mother. She picked it immediately.
"Hello ma'am."
"Hello." She sounded tensed with brought suspicion to Ivy.
"What happened?!" Ivy wore a serious face.
"Emily is in labour. You now the hospital right."
"What?! Oh yes. I am coming." She cut the call.
"What happened?" Darien was so confused and she didn't utter a word.
"Let's go. Emily is in labour." She widened her eyes and she looked tensed.
"Okay. Let me grab my keys." He stood and he went to the room.
*****
Ivy and Emily's mother kept wandering around the floor helplessly. Darien sat and he was bothered, probably because he didn't know her well.
The doctor came out and he looked stressed.
"She gave birth to twins." He had a bright smile and he left.
Ivy and Emily's mother, Monica screamed on top of their voice. They kept dancing with joy and they couldn't prevent themselves from screaming.
After a while, they were allowed to enter the room. Emily looked pale and see was in the hospital uniform. She was giving her babies breast milk. They walked in quietly and they were filled with joy.
Darien was still confused but a little happy. He just stood by the door.
"Congratulations Emily!" Ivy screamed on top of her voice.
"Thanks love." She smiled.
"Congratulations love." Monica smiled brightly.
"Can I carry my babies?" Ivy said teasingly.
She was about carrying them when Emily held her hand. She looked sad doing it but Ivy was confused.
"I'm sorry Ivy. You might just feel hurt about this but, until your problem is over, don't stay around me." Emily gave a sarcastic smile.
"What do you mean by problem?" Ivy sounded annoyed and see had a frown on her face.
"You are still naive. You probably haven't checked the group chat. Probably because they blocked you." Emily still had that sarcastic smile.
"What do you mean?" Ivy was getting confused and angry.
"Don't act all innocent. Most people say you seduced him but I know it's not true. Lately you guys have been getting into trouble. If they know you are conneuto me, my babies and I are no longer safe." She sighed and she glared at her.
"I understand. I think I should leave." Emily held her hand back.
"Don't feel too sad able this. You probably didn't how I kept my distancing away from. I promise that after your drama has ended, we can become close again." She gave that smile again.
Ivy had tears filled in her eyes. She glared at Emily and she walked out. As usual, Darien followed her.
He dragged her back and he hugged her tightly.
"Don't hide your emotions Ivy. Let it all out." He hugged her tightly.
She started crying again and again and see just couldn't stop. She stopped crying and she faced opposite him.
"I can't believe my own best friend could say this to me." She still had tears in her eyes.
"It's all my fault and I am really sorry." He apologized and he did it with an innocent face.
"No it is not our fault for falling in love. We have to face this problem together and show them we are in love." Ivy gave a warrior face.
"I love you Ivy." He smiled at her.
"I love you too." They hugged each other.
