OWENS POV
Cristina was here. I haven't seen her in nearly 20 years, and I wasn't going to start now.
"Let's go this way," I said and took a sharp turn to avoid her.
"You good?" Liam said, "why are you acting so weird." I turned and looked over my shoulder and she was gone.
"You guys have to promise me this will be our secret," I said.
"Okay," logan said, "what is it."
"My first wife is here," I said.
"You're what? You were married before?" Liam said.
"Yes, a very long time ago, but we're not going to tell your mother," I said.
"Does mom know about her?" Logan asked.
"Yeah," I said, "But were just not going to tell her because she will freak out and that's unnecessary."
"Okay," Logan chuckled.
"Where is she?" Liam said.
"Don't know and I don't care," I chuckled, "our secret." They nodded and we walked into the arcade. I was stressed about Cristina. We were over, no part of me loved her anymore, I'm so in love with Amelia, but I don't know how Amelia will react if I just tell her she's here.
LOGANS POV
Liam and I were walking back to our room to shower and my dad was meeting my mom at the pool.
"Dude did you know dad was married before?" I asked.
"No," he said.
"Me either," I said.
"Do you think mom will flip out?" He said.
"I mean dad said she met her," I shrugged. We got back to our room and Ava opened her door and came out into the hallway.
"Oh hey," she said.
"Ava," I said, "come here we have to tell you something."
"What?" She said annoyed and went back on her phone.
"Now!" Liam said.
"I'm trying to go to the pool," she said.
"Okay well you'll want to hear this one," I said and she closed the door behind us.
"Yeah," Liam said.
"Can you two do your twin pact thing bc this is a secret," I chuckled.
"Trio pact!" Ava said and help out both of her pinkies.
"That's not a thing," Liam chuckled and linked pinkies and I did the same.
"It is now," Ava said.
"Dad has a first wife," I said.
"Really?" Ava said.
"Yeah, and she's here," Liam said.
"No way!" Ava said, "what does she look like?"
"I don't know dad saw her and dipped, they didn't talk who knows if she saw him," I said.
"What did he say about her?" Ava asked.
"I get the vibe that he hates her," I chuckled.
"Yeah I agree," Liam said.
"Do you think mom knows about her?" Ava said.
"Oh yeah that's the other thing we can't tell mom," I said.
"No shit," Ava chuckled. There was a knock on the door and we all went silent.
"Yeah?" I said.
"I'll come back later," a voice said, definitely the maid.
"Okay thank you," Ava said, "I'm going to the pool now."
"Okay," Liam said and walked into the bathroom to shower.
AMELIAS POV
I was sitting by the pool watching Noah and Riley. Olivia was sitting next to me and Ava was coming down in a few minutes.
"Can you text your sister and see where she is," I chuckled.
"She said she ran into Logan and Liam she'll be down in a few," She responded.
"Alright," I said.
"Hey you," I heard. I looked over and saw Owen.
"Hey you," I smiled as he kissed me.
"Hey guys," Ava said as she sat down next to Olivia.
"Mom can we go to the pool on the other side now?" Olivia asked.
"Yes stay together," I said. They nodded and got up and started walking.
"Where are Logan and Liam?" I asked.
"They went up to shower," he said.
"Okay," I said and leaned in a kissed him.
OWENS POV
We were all getting ready for dinner. The kids were showering in their room and I was getting ready to shower.
"Hey Mia?" I called from the bathroom.
"Yeah?" She said.
"Come here," I said. She walked into the bathroom and looked confused.
"What?" She said.
"Do you need to shower?" I asked. She chuckled and smiled.

Amelia and I got out of the shower and she smiled.
"That was fun," she giggled.
"It was," I chuckled.
"Mm I love you," she said and kissed me.
"I love you too," I said.
"What should I wear?" She asked and walked over to her suitcase.
"Whatever you want," I said.
"I should probably unpack," she chuckled.
"That would be a good idea," I joked. We both got dressed and Amelia climbed into bed.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"We have like 10 minutes," she said and snuggled into the pillow.
"Good night," I joked.
"Shut up," she said.
"Mom!" Ava and Olivia called from their room.
"Ugh," Amelia said and got up.
AMELIAS POV
I opened the adjoining door and Riley, Ava, and Olivia were arguing.
"What are we arguing about now?" I chuckled.
"Riley used all the hot water!" Olivia said.
"I had to take a cold shower!" Ava complained. I chuckled and sighed.
"Rotate your showering order I don't know!" I chuckled.
"I didn't use all of it!" Riley said.
"You took a 20 minute shower!" Ava and Olivia yelled.
"Okay it's over with figure it out tomorrow," I laughed, "are you all ready?"
"No," Ava said.
"Yes," Olivia and Riley said.
"Ava why are you not ready," I chuckled.
"Let me put some makeup on," Ava said.
"Okay," I said. She walked into the bathroom and Olivia and Riley went to go see what the boys were doing.
"Hey mom," Ava said.
"Yes?" I said.
"Come here," she said.
"What?" I said.
"Olivia and Riley might be stupid but I noticed the hickey on your neck," she laughed.
"Uh," I said and looked in the mirror and realized, "shit." She laughed and handed me her foundation.
"OWEN," I yelled.
"What," he said.
"Come here," I said.
"Dads in trouble," Ava joked.
"We don't talk about this," I chuckled.
"What?" Owen said and walked into the bathroom.
"Idiot!" I said and pointed at the hickey.
"Stupid!" He mocked and chuckled.
"Wow you two really love each other," Ava chuckled and walked into the other room.
