Zoe's POV:

2 months later,
I woke up with Tal already awake and starring.
Me: That's called stalking. *gentle laugh*
Tal: It's called admiring.
He said kissing my cheek before getting dressed.
Me: Do you really need to go on a cruise, tomorrow?
Tal: Babe, I already told you. It's for my moms birthday.
Me: But why does Cay, Matt and Jason get to go?
Tal: It's also a business trip.
Me: Do you really need to go? It's our 2month anniversary.
I don't want to seem like the needy gf, but we haven't spend quality time together nor alone. Everything we did, my brother tagged along or Michael did. Sometimes even Cay.
Me: we never get time alone.
Tal: Yes we do. What about our hike?
Me: Cay was there.
Tal: Our romantic dinner?
Me: At In-n-Out with Michael.
Tal: Ok....OH our movie night?
Me: Michael and Anthony.
Tal: Oh for sure no one was there at our shopping spree?
Me: Cay, Michael and Anthony were there too. They even made a video about us!
Tal: Shit, I'm so sorry babygirl. I promise today is going to be our day. Only you and me. No one else.
Me: Not even Anthony? Michael? Caylus?
Tal: Without no one. I'm gonna give them a thousand dollar to shop, eat, watch a movie and come back at 8pm.
Me: Sounds good love.
I said kissing him and getting ready for the day.

Just like Tal said, no one was there. We had the house for ourselves, no one was around. Not even a single mosquito. To start off the day, Tal made this super cute breakfast; a toast with a heart shaped egg in it, chocolate covered strawberry, fresh squeezed orange jus and bacon. That we ate, in bed, while watching FRIENDS. Later we went on a hike, where Tal surprised me with a picnic; more chocolate covered strawberries, In-n-Out burgers, chocolate milkshake, a fruit bowl (strawberries, oranges, apples, cherries and grapes). He also brought painting equipment; canvas, paint, paint brushes, sponges, mod podge, etc. After a couple hours, we want back to the house and decided to have a bubble bath. The day was perfect, literally straight out of a movie.
Me: It was an incredible day babe.
Tal: I know babygirl. We should do this more often.
He said holding me in his arm.
...:bang !!!
Me: Tal...what was that?
Tal: Shit! I think they're back!
Me: It's only 5.
I said getting out of the bath. I put on my Gucci robe will Tal got dressed. We both went downstairs before seeing someone sitting on the kitchen table with ice cream.
Me: who is that?
Tal: Nick?
The guy turned around and I could clearly see Nick.
Me: omg baby what happened to you?
I said walking towards him, he had red puffy eyes.
Nick: Kelly broke up with me.
He said crying. I hugged him and he started telling me how she didn't want the fame and how people wouldn't stop txting her about breaking up or that she wasn't good for him. My baby was crushed in a million pieces, he really liked her.
Me: Oh Nick baby, I'm sorry it didn't work out. I know how much she meant to you.
Nick: She was the love of my life.
Me: Ohhh nick....
Tal: Come on dude, you deserve better. You'll find someone else I promise.
We both hugged him before he went up in his room.
Me: I hope he'll be ok.
Tal: Yeah I hope so too.
He hugged me before we sat down and started eating ice cream.
Me: Today was really amazing. Why do you have to go?
Tal: I promise I'll text you everyday babygirl.
Me: Promise?
Tal: Promise!

The next day,
Anthony drove Tal, Adi, Jason, Cay and Matt at the Airport. I stayed at home. I really didn't feel like hanging out with the guys so I stayed in my room. I watched shows on Netflix all day before getting an incoming FaceTime call. I opened it and saw Tal sitting with Matt.
Me: Hey guys.
Matt: Wass up Zoe.
Me: Nothing much you?
Matt: Same, business is boring.
He said laughing. I laughed and looked at Tal, who was looking at me.
Tal: How was ur day babygirl?
Me: It was ok, I guess. You weren't there but I passed my math test with a 93%!!
Tal: Omg!!!! I'm so proud of you!!! I know how much you studied for that test!!!
He smiled at me and sent me a kiss in the air. I did the same and we started talking about how his cruise is going. How he's spending time with family, how the business is going.
Me: Do you think you'll have enough for that?
Tal; I've always wanted to drop more merch, and with the subscribe box that I have, I don't think it'll be that hard.
Me: But you have to focus on the design you want...it's a lot of work. Take it from someone who used to work in a graphic store.
Tal: Wait....can you do that for me?
Me: Well....I have my assignments to finish but I'll squeeze in time for you.
Tal: Really?
Me: Yeah, no worries. Just send me the ideas you want.
Tal: I love you so much babe.
Me: I know you do.
He laughed and after a couple more hours I hung up. Literally 2 seconds later I get a phone call from Emily.
Me: Yeah?
Emily; Yo, un do you want to party with me tonight?
Me: Em...idk i have my assignment on the Roman time to finish.
Emily: Cant you ask Drake to do it?
Drake was the guy who would do all ur homework for only 30 dollars. And it was a good assignment.
Me: No Em. I need to do that to get into a good college.
Emily: You don't need to go if you're working and making videos on YouTube.
Me: Not today Em. I'm going to do my work.
Emily: Fine, if you change your mind I'm sending you the address.
And she hung up. I sat in front of my desk and started writing.
