Chapter 54

The next day started very chaotically. The boys were travelling from one place to another, slowly transporting all their things to the flat as it was their last day in Rye's house. The girls in contrast, packed a few days ago so now, they had time to get ready for the party. It was definitely one of the most important days and everyone was excited to spend it together.

"Curls or straight?" Amanda asked, looking at herself in the mirror. Yesterday, she had a detailed conversation with her girl friends about what to wear and how to look, but they all achieved nothing; there was too many things to try and ideas to choose from.

"What about loose, high volume, wavy? Sort of like the 90s style" Belle suggested, trying to paint her nails, whilst fighting with the momentum of her head. Because normally, her hair was long, thick and straight, all the girls gave themselves a challenge to make curls that will survive for the whole night. Therefore, Belle was now sitting with loads of different hair rollers.

"Amazing!" Amanda screamed, running for the equipment needed, nearly falling on the wire of Rose's straightener.

After what seemed to be 5 hours, everyone managed to get ready. They were all in a taxi, travelling to 'Aqua' club, which they planned to stay the whole night in. It was Rye's idea but as everyone heard about it, they approved straight away. Today, they planned to stay in a hotel so they won't wake up Beaumont's family in the morning. The best part about the place they were staying in, was a luxury private night club with amazing songs and exclusive bar next to their hotel. It had a good reputation of no arguments, fights or weirdly acting people, at the same time providing everyone with lots of fun. And because it was New Year's Eve today, the main element of the night was a huge open up space where people would come out at midnight to watch fireworks.

"I'm so excited" Mikey said, wrapping his hand over Rose's waist as they all came out of the taxi. Everyone looked at the huge sign and tons of lights that just invited others to come into the club. Mikey smiled widely, however, his face expression quickly changed as he saw a good 5 meters queue; it would take them like 4 hours to get in.

"Don't worry buddy, I have it sorted" Rye said, almost as if he read his friend's mind. He ignored everyone in the line that gave him dirty looks for pushing in and went straight to a tall, masculine man, probably a bodyguard that stood near the side.

"Bowman, it's been ages!" The black boy said, smiling as soon as he realised who came up to him. Others just walked in slowly, confused as even the boys have never seen or heard about this boy before.

"Guys, that's my old friend, we used to jump around together" Rye introduced Robin, giving everyone a chance to say hello. The boy was also a free-runner and from a little story that he told them, him and Rye were best friends in childhood, learning all the jumping tricks together. "But how are you, I haven't seen you in like what... 8 years?" Rye asked, remembering that his friend used to travel around doing free running in different competitions.

"I'm fine, I still jump from time to time but it's only as a hobby now. Now this is my full job" he said, pointing at the club. "Took long to promote it, but it's doing wonders now"

"Does it mean you're the owner?" Belle asked, shocked as she was sure he was only a bodyguard.

"Yeah, this place is my baby. I don't blame you for thinking otherwise though, about 50 people made the same mistake today" he laughed. "I only waited for Ryan, he called me not long ago, asking for you all to stay in"

"Wow, you actually managed to plan something well" Belle said, turning her face to the mentioned friend. Rye, hearing the surprise in her voice just let out a quick "heyy!", causing the girl to laugh. However, before anyone had any chances to say something, Robin changed the subject.
