Arianna's POV
My phone rang as Stacey was telling a story about how one of her clients tried hitting on Paul. I asnwered it.
"Hello?"
"Honey, we're at the lobby." Aunt Claire said.
"Alright. I'm on my way there." I hung up and looked at the others. "I'll go get them. I'll be right back."
"I'll go with you." Nico offered.
"If you want to."
"I do. I have a feeling you forgot how to get to the lobby and you don't know how to get their room key at the desk." he said.
I rolled my eyes. "I'm not that bad at directions!" I defended. He chuckled and held my hand, towing me away to the lobby.
I looked around and saw Aunt Claire and ran to her.
"My baby! You look gorgeous!" She said as I hugged her.
"I'm not even wearing a dress anymore." I said, laughing.
"Well, you look gorgeous on anything you wear. I have a story to tell and you are gonna say you love me after this." she said with a laugh.
"Oh really?" I looked at uncle.
He nodded. "It was hilarious. You should've been there."
"Well I can't wait to hear it. Wait, is it about Savannah?" I asked.
They nodded and grinned. I grinned too and so did Nico. "Well what are we still standing here? I wanna hear it already!" Nico said.
He grabbed the keys from the receptionist and led us to their room. It turned out it was just right next to us. "Our room is right over here. If you guys need anything, don't hesitate to knock." Nico said as we passed our door to the next one. "And this is yours. You guys can just drop off your stuff and we'll head downstairs to the garden."
They nodded and gasped as he opened the door. "Wow. This is a suite?" Aunt Claire asked.
"Yup. Like it?" I asked, winking at her.
"Love it." she corrected. They dropped off their stuff and we went to the garden where Paul and Stacey were chatting. They looked up and saw Claire and Erik.
"Hi! You must be Claire!" Stacey said, running up to Claire and hugging her. "She's told me a lot about you!" she beamed.
Claire looked at me. "Good stuff I hope. And she's talked about you too."
"Only good stuff Claire. And I hope she's talked about good stuff about me too?"
"Of course."
Stacey looked up to Uncle Erik as Paul joined us. "And you must be Erik. Our son told us you're exceptional at basketball." Paul said, stretching out a hand.
Erik shook it and said, "I should be the one saying that. Your son is incredible. Didn't even break a sweat when we played. And that was a game between my son and I versus him by himself. OH and happy birthday."
"Thank you. And I'm gifted to have such a son." Paul said as he guided them to the table. He called out a waiter once we were seated. "Have you guys had dinner yet?" They nodded. "Well, do you guys want dessert at least?"
"Sure. I'll have a slice of cheesecake." Claire said.
I nodded. "Good choice. They have the best cheesecake here. And red velvet too. And chocolate." I said.
"Well, I'll have the red velvet then." Erik said.
"I'll have chocolate!" Me and Nico said at the same time. We looked at each other and laughed.
"You guys are so cute!" Stacey and Claire gushed. We blushed which made them go, "Aww!"
Paul laughed. "Give them a big slice. They'll share a cake." he said to the waiter who smiled and nodded. "And me and my wife will get cheesecake too. In seperate plates though. She'll finish it before I even get a bite." he joked.
"Hey! Don't make me seem like a fatty!" Stacey pouted.
He laughed and hugged her. "Of course not, dear." he said.
We laughed at them and I turned to Claire. "So what were you gonna tell me?" I asked.
"Oh! Well, I was watching the interviews from the party and it got to yours which made me scream cus you were so pretty. And Aaron and Savannah came downstairs to see what was going on and she started insulting you saying that Stacey wasn't nice to her when all she did was be nice to Stacey, and I remember the story you told me and I said that her and nice doesn't fit in a sentence," she stopped cus all of us were laughing, then she continued. "And then I said that my baby looked so pretty, then she said that you and pretty doesn't fit in a sentence so I got mad and tackled her to the ground and pulled on her hair." she explained. We laughed again.
"Aunt, you never changed. You may not be a teenager anymore, but you're stronger than a sumo wrestler!" I said making us laugh harder.
"Well, she messed with the wrong people! I really don't like her. And after I left her, she faked her crying, so Aaron would fight me for her, but it looked like Aaron could care less. He helped her, but I don't think he knows what he was doing." she explained with a shrug.
"So far, that was the best bed time story I've ever heard." I said.
"Speaking of bed time, you kids should rest now. Us adults will have a few drinks and some talk." Stacey said, making a shoo-ing motion for us to go upstairs.
I pouted. "Boo!" Me and Nico stood up and bid everyone a good night and went upstairs.
"I have a feeling they're gonna be really close." he said, putting his arms around me.
I leaned on him. "I think they already are." I said with a laugh.
"True. And that story was hilarious. And when you said she was like a sumo wrestler cracked me up even more." he said, laughing as he remembered.
I joined him as he laughed an opened our suite. "Well, it's true! She's really scary when she's mad. You don't wanna get on her bad side or else it's a World War." Then we laughed. I went to the bathroom and washed my face off as Nico brushed his teeth. We went to bed and all of a sudden, tiredness hit me as my head hit my pillow. I turned to face Nico's direction and he did the same. He put his arms on my waist and pulled me closer. Our face were so close together so Nico closed the space and kissed me. Then it turned into a full on make out session until we ran out of breath.
"I think I'm getting used to this." he said with a chuckle.
I giggled. "We're only here for a few more days, then we're going back to America. I'm gonna spend the rest of summer with my parents while you're stuck in our dorm waiting for me to come back." I said as Nico pouted. Then an idea hit me. I grinned. "How would you feel about spending your summer with me and my family instead of being bored to death at our dorm?"
He smiled widely and said, "I would love that." And closed the space between us again. After a few minutes of kissing, we finally decided to go to sleep. Before I went to sleep, I texted Aunt Claire to wake us up before they left.
