It was hard for Adam to make a choice between Christina and Shakira. He wanted both. But he chose Christina. It was possibly his last chance to find out the truth when he would get another chance to sleep with Shakira. Or maybe he even would get to do two things? But first he needed to talk to Christina.

He knocked at her door as in a minute Christina opened the door. “What do you want Adam?” She sighed tiredly.

“Just to talk to you”

“Last time you wanted just to talk to me too” she said as Adam could feel weakness in her voice. She seemed so broken. Christina seemed too tired to fight with him as she simply let him in.

“Spill it out” she said sharply stopping in the middle of the room and turning to face Adam.

“All I want to know what’s wrong with you” Adam came closer to Christina caringly putting his arms on her shoulders.

She tried to ignore his glance by looking onto the ground. “Haven’t I told you that I’m not planning to share it with you?”

“I remember” Adam said calmly. “But you never said a reason why” Christina stayed quiet as Adam reached his hand to her hair caressing it as he continued “Christina, I hate seeing you like this. It’s not just because of you and me. I hate our fighting, but I can live with them. I don’t know for which reason you’re angry with me. I don’t like it, but I don’t care about it much. Not as much as I care about you. You’re too broken. The sadness slowly is taking over you. All I want it to bring that happy, full of life girl back. I missed her” Christina was listening to him carefully as tears started forming in her eyes. “Yesterday, on the beach, I thought she was finally back. But then, at night, I saw her much more broken sitting on the beach watching somewhere afar. And I realized that she didn’t feel better as all I wanted was to help her. If I just knew how”

Christina sighed hard as tears rolled down her face. Adam pressed her hard to his chest not understanding how much this action meant for Christina. She felt so good in his arms as at the same time she knew it was just a friendly gesture. She wanted more. She wanted something she would never get from him. And it hurt her.

“There is no way of you, or anyone, to help me” she said into his chest as tears were slowly stopping.

“You sure?” Christina slightly nodded into his chest still finding piece in his heartbeat.

He was the only one who could make her feel better. But he would never think of her as something more. If he warmed her heart up it would be for one night or at least for a very short period of time. She couldn’t let even that happen as afterwards it would hurt just more.

“Please go” Christina said pulling away as everything inside her was breaking. More than anything right now she wanted to get back into his arms. But she knew she needed to stop it. She looked at Adam hardly stopping another flow of tears. She wanted him to leave. She didn’t want to break in front of him, though she already did.

Adam looked into her eyes still trying to find some straw to change her feelings but he couldn’t find one. So he obediently listened to her and walked out of the room.

Adam went out of Christina’s room to the hall. He felt like he wanted to cry too now. Seeing Christina sad made him sad and he really wished he was able to make her feel better but he could do nothing.

The talk with Christina didn’t take much time. And he was still invited to Shakira’s room. But to get there he needed some time as thoughts of Christina didn’t leave his mind. He still felt bad for her. And this made him not want to have fun with Shakira. But it took him like ten minutes to remove such mood and knock into Shakira’s door.

He heard “come in” coming from her room as he pushed the door. Inside he found Shakira in sexy lingerie lying on her bed.

“What took you so long?” she asked with a sexy voice.

“Decided to avoid all the possible suspicions” Adam said coming closed to the bed. “But now I’m all yours” he said taking off his shirt and pants.

He threw himself next to Shakira grabbing by the waist and giving her a passionate kiss. ‘So where did we stop?” he smirked cockily.

“On this” she whispered kissing his lips and getting on top of him.

“Oh, I love it” he smirked deepening the kiss and slowly taking her lingerie off.

Shakira opened her eyes finding herself wrapped into Adam’s arms. She smiled to herself as she felt being in perfect place right now. She didn’t want to go anywhere today as to stay here with him. She needed nothing more.

Adam woke up looking at a beautiful girl in his arm “Good morning” he whispered reaching for her lips kissing them softly.

“Good morning” she answered lying on his shoulder closing the distance between their faces. “Can we miss the breakfast?” she sighed.

Adam smiled lightly. “I didn’t even think of it” he gave her another kiss as his hand slowly slid down her back. “I was thinking just of you” he said.

“So our thoughts are the same?” she smiled as they connected their lips in passionate kiss.

“Perfectly” he answered between series of kisses.

“Where are Adam and Shakira?” Carson asked as they were finishing their breakfast and two of them still didn’t show up.

“I think the answer is obvious” Christina said trying to seem indifferent to it but inside everything was screaming at hearing her own words.

“They could at least pretend” Blake sighed.

“I guess they had too long night, or vice-versa catching up right now” Christina said sarcastically.

“Does it bother you?” Blake said like stating the fact but at the same time she could hear the tone of care in his voice.

“No at all” Christina answered quickly as it sounded to sharp. “I mean let them do whatever they want. We’ll be fine without them” she added trying to cover her real feelings.

And in some points there was a truth in her words. As they would be far from her she would feel better not seeing their faces. Not seeing Adam’s face.

Christina was sunbathing on the beach when she heard Blake’s voice “Finally, Adam! Where have you been?”

“I just overslept. Couldn’t fall asleep yesterday and I got to fell asleep just in the morning” he said lying next to Christina as there was a free chair next to her.

“Yeah, of course” Christina answered inaudibly but Adam got to hear her.

“Something’s wrong?” he said looking at Christina as she was lying with her eyes closed enjoying the warm sun.

“I said nothing” she said sitting up and looking back at Adam.

“You did”

“Well, I said just a fact”

“Really? Can I know it?”

“I don’t think it’s very hard to connect absence of two people and sleepless night” Christina said sarcastically as Adam stayed quiet not confirming or denying. So she lay back closing her eyes.

“So Christina is right?” Blake joined the discussion curious to find out all the truth.

Christina pretended not to listen and just being in her thoughts as she was dying to know what Adam would say. So she listened carefully to each his word. But he stayed quiet for a couple of seconds when Christina heard a woman’s voice.

“Hey, guys” Shakira said.

Christina instantly opened her eyes finding Shakira sitting next to Adam as he grabbed her by the waist and whispered something to her ear. Shakira nodded smiling as Adam turned back to everyone.

“Yes, we are dating”
