Seconds later. Room 304.
Angel continues to knock the door, hoping to get an answer from her friend. Dante tries to calm George and whispers to his ear to ask for a, 'minute to get dressed.'
"I'm coming, just one sec, I'm naked.", George yells to his friend outside. Then Angel stops knocking and waits for the door to open along with Scotty.
George grabs Dante's hand and throws him outside, at the balcony. Problem is that Dante didn't had time even to wear his boxer. He puts his hands around his private area and quickly climbs back to his room.
Meanwhile George gets ready to open and he notices Dante's clothes in the last second. He grabs them and puts them under the bed.
After that he runs and unlocks the door. Angel sighs out of relief and she along with Scotty walk inside and jump on her bed.
"Took you long enough.", Angel says to her friend before she is completely asleep.
George gives her an awkward smile and informs them that he is going downstairs to eat breakfast.
He closes the door behind him and says goodnight to his friend and Scotty. After that he immediately runs to room 303, and knocks the door again and again, until Dante opens and he storms inside the room...
"Morning.", a hangovered Dante says to him.
"Okay listen, whatever happened to us or with us, yesterday, let's forget about it."
"Oh, so you remember what happened, because I have no memory of last night whatsoever."
"Well, I don't remember what happened last night, but I have a pretty big lead that makes it certain, that what we think it happened, actually happened!"
"George, what the hell are you talking about?"
"My butthole is killing me. Also could you like wear something? You have a condom on your, you know that thing.", George answers to Dante while he is trying to get his tone down.
Dante looks down and tries to understand how he didn't noticed that the moment he woke up.
He opens his suitcase grabs a new pair of clothes and goes to the bathroom. Once he walks out of there, looking better and fresh out of sleep he and George sit on the left side of his bed and look everything but each other.
Dante feels like he owes George an explanation, so he turns his look towards him, "I'm not gay, just so you know."
"I don't care, I can't be around you. It's wrong. You're an A-lister. You have a girlfriend and I have a college and many, many demonstrations to go to, when we return. It was an one time mistake, never going to happen again, plus we will stay away from each other. Deal?"
