I kept looking at the ceiling, replaying the day's events in my head. Beau telling us the truth about Alex, Scott confessing that he liked me. I couldn't get his face out of my head. The smile he gave me when I confessed I liked him back was now glued on my own face.

"My Mitchy.", Scott whispered. I pulled away from his hug and looked at his beautiful face. Tears were forming in his deep blue eyes.

"Scotty...what do we do now?", I asked.

"I don't know. But we have to be careful, sweety. We can't risk messing with Alex, he's dangerous. I guess we must not see each other for a while. We have to convince him that we don't like each other. Besides, I want to take this slow. You're important to me.", he said and took my hand in his.

"Not see each other? Like at all? Scott, our next stop is in Naples and we'll be there in four days! How am I supposed to stay away from you this long, especially now that I know that you feel the same way as I do?" I felt the hot tears rolling on my cheek and he quickly lifted his hand to dry them off.

"Don't cry, Mitchy, please. It's hard for me too, but we have to make sure we're safe. I promise I'm gonna text you all the time. You'll just have to delete every text after you read it, in case Alex checks your phone. I'll do the same.", he told me.

"I don't want to face him, Scotty, I'm scared. I can't believe he hurt you. You were in so much pain...because of me."

"The blame is Alex's and Alex's only, Mitch. Don't you dare think that you did anything wrong. Fuck, I'm gonna kill this bastard!", he shouted.

"Scott, calm down. I'll do as you said. We'll have plenty of time to catch up in Naples. Actually, the cruise guide says that were gonna have almost a week to visit any place we want! We can go to Sicily or Malta! Or stay in Naples, that works as well.", I said.

"Actually, I had other plans for us that week, Sunshine. Don't ask, it's a surprise. But only in you want to like...-", he blushed and looked down, brushing his hand on the back of his neck.

"Want what, Scotty?"

"Would you want to...go on a date with me?", he was bearly audible.

"What did you say, Scotty?" Of course I heard him the first time, but being the sneaky bitch I am, I wanted him to ask again. I loved how red his face was.

"Mitchy...would you like to go on a date with me? It's okay if you dont want to though.", he added.

"Is it really? Cause I was about to say yes, but if that's the case-"

"Shut up, Grassi, you agreed. No turning back now!", he said smiling.

I was still looking at the ceiling when my phone buzzed.

Scotty <3 : I miss you :(

Me : I can come over!

Scotty <3 : Too risky, baby

Me : What is life without a little risk? ;)

Scotty <3 : Mitch NO. I won't open the door.

Me : fine

He kept spamming me with texts, but I ignored him. I wasn't mad at him and I knew where he was coming from, I just couldn't stand talking to him without being able to see him. I took a quick shower to relax and returned to my bed to get ready for sleep.

I checked my phone to send a quick goodnight text to my crush, and I saw 24 texts from Scott and 1 from Alex. I opened Alex's first.

Alex: Can I come over? We can watch a movie and chill.

I got my phone and called Scott immediately.

"Mitch! Are you okay, sweetheart? Want me to come to your room? Are you mad at me?", he sounded so worried and I felt horrible for ignoring him.

"Scott, calm down, I'm fine and I'm not mad at you, I was taking a shower. Listen; Alex wants to come over, what should I say? I'm scared, Scotty.", my hands were now shaking.

"Baby, don't worry. Alex is not gonna hurt you, at least not physically. You can always say no.", he said in his gentle voice.

"But if I say yes, it will be easier to convince him that we don't talk to each other anymore.", I said. I really didn't want to do this, but I knew that it was the best I could do to keep Scott safe.

"Sunshine, remember that I'll be in the room next door. If he tries anything, I'll know it. Don't worry about anything, sweetheart, I'm right here. You're the bravest boy I know."

"Scotty, I'll text you when he leaves. Please call me then."

"Of course, honey. Stay strong.", Scott said.

"Then stay close.", I replied.

"Always."

Me: Kk, see u in a bit, Allie.
