Puerto Rico

"Babe. It's really weird looking into Jo's eyes. Since I've never met any of my family seeing her have the same eyes as me just weird me out sometimes."Jake admits.

Gabby chuckles as they walked along the beach. Jake in blue swim trunks. Most of his clothes were blue. Gabby knew it was his favorite color but so much blue. He sure did look nice in it though.

"Yeah, I would be freaked out if I had a twin myself. I couldn't live with it knowing there's another dork out there."Gabby laughs.

"Hey, you aren't a dork. If anything I'm the dork."Jake smiles. "I can't disagree with that."She laughs. "Do you want to go into town tonight? Maybe party?"Jake asks. "No, we have a bonfire tonight. Care wants us to spend our first official night out here."Gabby smiles.

"How do you manage to be better than me at everything? The most exciting thing I've done with my friends was hiking out in Joshua Tree. We normally meet up every Saturday night...when I was single and spent it on the sports channel."He laughs.

"Is that what guy's night is? I always wondered what guys did for fun."Gabby smiles. "Yes, it's fun espically when we played cards may not sound like it but it was fun."

"You know how it's known for police officers liking donuts right?"He asks.

"Yes."She replies.

"Well, we make it our morning routine to go get coffee and donuts just because of it. Like I stopped at the donut shop. It's filled with people and so when it's my turn before I could get a word out the cashier grabs my items and holds out her hand for the cash. I was cracking up forgetting I was a police officer and had to be serious which shocked her. I was rookie but she just assumed I came for that instead of the bagel egg sandwich I was looking at."Jake laughs.

"You've been eating donuts every morning on the job every since?"She asks. "Yeah, of course. I'm feeling like donuts right now actually."He smiles. Gabby laughs rolling her eyes. "Malachi!"Carrie yells from the ocean. Gabby and Jake look over seeing Kai splash the mess out of Carrie who was trying to get him back.

"I hate that name."Kai states pulling her into the air. "I-I swear if you dr-"Water splashes as Carrie screams pushing Kai. "My makeup."She whines her face pouting. "On a scale 1-12 how hot do I look in this apron?"Enzo asks Bonnie.

Bonnie immediately rolls her eyes at her chef. "Maybe a 12 if the apron said I love my girlfriend instead of british flame."She shrugs earning a smirk from Enzo. "My, my Bonnie Bennet. I don't need an apron to show my love for you."He flips a burger.

Bonnie sets the meat onto the table and smiles up at Enzo. "You know. If you ever wanted I would take you out to England. It would be nice to show you were I grew up and all."Enzo suggests.

"I would love that. Have you found any realitives of yours?"She asks earning a shift in his mood. "I've stopped looking. I have so many dead ends it seems pointless. I don't know if it would change if I go there myself."Enzo replies.

"We could go together and look around some neighbors someone knows someone at least the last name."She assured him. Enzo thanked her before pulling her into his arms and sharing a passionate kiss.

Later that day

"I've past by a mother and two kids. The mother was carrying clothes and the kids around the ages five to seven boy and girl were walking along side of her. She was tired but they were exhausted. They were carrying bread. I offered her a hand with the basket because well she looked like she could use it. She spoke rapid spanish which took me a while to show her I wanted to give her a ride home. I dropped her and her kids off and she thanks me. She says thank you in her heavy accent. I tried to tell her she was welcomed and that she deserved it."
