Chapter 8

• • •

Ivan's lips slowly leave a trail of kisses down my neck. The room is dark and all I can see is him. Suddenly, there's a huge banging noise.

I wake up to the sound of Jake pounding on my door.

"Laina, wake up!" he yells. "I want to film a video!"

Holy shit. Was I dreaming about Ivan?

"Okay I'm coming!" I call back.

I shake my head. Okay, I'm just going to pretend that never happened.

Quickly, I get out of bed and throw on an oversized t-shirt and a pair of skinny jeans.

Last night was such a blur because I was exhausted from the flight. I remember being introduced to everyone, and then somehow I ended up in bed and asleep.

I open my door and run down the stairs, skipping every other step. It feels so great to smell bacon in the morning instead of stale alcohol.

When I get to the kitchen table, there is already a plate of eggs and bacon waiting for me.

"I made you breakfast for you first day here in the Team 10 house," Jake announces. "But don't get used to it."

Tessa is already sitting at the table, and we talk for a while and make plans to get our nails done later today.

Then, Ivan and Emilio come down the stairs. I act casual and try not to think about my dream. Nothing happened, I tell myself.

When I finish eating, Jake brings me to the backyard to film a challenge video. Or so I thought.

He and Chad end up dumping a bucket of water on my head.

The rest of the day is filled with laughter and vlogging. At night, everyone sits on the couch and we talk and go on our phones.

One by one, people start walking up the stairs and go to bed. I was was busy snapchatting people that by the time I pick my head up, Ivan and I are the only ones left. Great.

"So how was your first day in the Team 10 house?" he asks.

"Actually, it was a lot of fun. Crazy things happen here." I smile as I remember the events of my wild day.

"Well, tomorrow will be even more fun. Jake said he had something crazy planned."

"Now I'm excited. And tired. I'm going to go to bed."

"Can I give you a goodnight hug?" he asks. "In Spain, we also hug before going to sleep."

He's too adorable with that giant grin on his face. I couldn't say no.

I wrap my arms around his warm body and we stand there for a few minutes, hugging.

I'm surprised to find that I actually enjoy his hug. I feel something special between us, and I realize how sad I am when he finally pulls away.

We smile at each other, and head off to bed.
