Nate greeted Ali with a smile, and reached down to grab her suitcase. "Good morning." Ali smiled in reply
"Good morning" Kyle greeted Jenny with a kiss on the lips as he reached for her suitcase and put it in the car. "How did you ladies sleep?"
"Fine, how about you guys?" Jenny asked
"Great. Thanks." Nate said, as Ali Jenny got in the back seat of the car along with Kyle.
"Ali, would you mind going in the front?" Claire asked.
"Sure." Ali smiled sweetly
Ali got into the front seat, as Claire sat next to Jenny and Kyle, and Nate drove away. Ali thought about the kiss she shared with Nate the night before, and her cheeks grew hot and her palms began to sweat. "The stars were spectacular from my window last night." Claire said
Ali tried her best to look at Nate, but every time she did, she just blushed. "Yes, they were." she smiled.
"Look. That vineyard. That's our favourite wine." Claire said as she pointed to a sign that read, Vigna Di Toscana. "Let's turn in there and have a goodbye toast."

"It's Lorenzo." Claire said, gesturing to the boy who was wrapping a vine around a fence post.
"Who?" Ben asked as he, Nate, Ali, and Jenny stepped closer to her. It was a teenage boy that was no more than 18 years old.
"The boy?" Nate asked gently and Claire nodded, her eyes never leaving the boy. Nate and Ben were silent for a moment before they sighed. "All right, nana. Let's get you in the shade." Nate insisted. "Shall we?"
Ali approached the boy. If Claire mistook this teenage boy as Lorenzo, then perhaps he could be Lorenzo's grandson. "Mi scusi? Sai dov'è Lorenzo Bartolini?"(Excuse me, do you know where Lorenzo Bartolini is?) the blonde asked
