(Biana:)

"Thank you all for joining us," Prentice said. The Black Swan hadn't had a meeting since Sophie and my brother had left. Team Valeant had gone on 2 missions and ... failed. The worst part was Dex was severely injured. But after a few weeks of recovery, he was fine. 

 "We have reason to believe that we have a spy," was the sentence that brought me back to the conversation. My heartfelt like it stopped, and I could feel the blood drain from my face. But why? Way Am I panicking? Not like i'm the spy...

 "Who can we trust?" Lihn asked with concern written all over her. "The people in this room we know for sure we can trust them, we are looking into are other agents. We are telling you this, not because we want to strike fear in you, but so that you keep your guard up." Prentice said in a very stern but caring voice. I looked around the room and noticed Tam was staring at me. I gave him a small friendly smile and went back to listening to prentice.

 (Tam:)

We had been in this meeting for about 2 hours but the only person I cared about was Biana. Today she was in an off the shoulder ash blue ball gown, it was tight around the chest and had a tye around the waste. At the waste, it dropped into a tool skirt, that had different shades of blue flowers. The sleeves of the dress went right to her elbows and they were bell-shaped, and she had it matched with heels and a cloak.

 "Mr. Vacker," I called as I ran up with him. "Please call me Alden," he said with his signature Vacker smile. "What may I do for you?" He asked turning and looked at me. "I was wondering, um, asking" I said nervously. "If I could have permission to ask your daughter out?" He smiled at me and was quiet for a few minutes. "Walk with me son," He said waving his hand for me to follow. "My daughter has been through a lot, as you now. And I know you have been through a lot. So yes you have my permission. But, if you hurt her in any way, Tam. You will be in very big trouble," he said patting me on the back and smiled at me. 

"Linh!" I yelled as I ran into our house. "What?" She asked walking in with Wylie. "He said yes!" I exclaimed to her. "Are you smiling?" Willie asked with a raised eyebrow. "Alden said yes to you going out with Biana?" Linh said smiling back at me. I nodded as she asked, "When are you going to ask her?" "Tomorrow Maybe? I don't know." I said scratching my head. "Well if you are going to go out with Biana you need a makeover!" She said clapping her hands and pulled me upstairs. "A makeover?" 

(Sophie/Brier:)

 In the morning Sage, Bruno, Thorne, and I go on our morning runs, rain or shine. This morning it was raining so hard. Just one step outside and we were soaking wet. We ran about 12 miles a day, and sometimes more. 

Running my escape, whenever I was mad, sad, upset, I run. When we stepped inside Monica had towels waiting for us and hot chocolate. "What's going on? You guys never give us special treatment?" I asked as they led us to the kitchen. "This week we will be starting a new training program," Atlas told us. "Every week or so we will give an exercise or a task and you two must complete it." "So trust exercises?" Fitz asked while drying his hair with a towel. "Dude, your hair is longer than mine!" I giggled at him. He smiled at me, "Does it make me look sexy?" He asked with a goofy smile. "In your dreams!" Monica said. "But lets stay on topic."

  "Well some of them will be. Each week it will very. And it is ok if it takes more than a week. These tasks are going to build you too up, make you stronger, and help the two of you bond," Monica told us. "So this week's task will be dancing. I know this will take a couple of weeks, but this will help in many ways. Now go get ready." She told us. I put on bright blue leggings and a white crop top. Thorne was wearing a blue sleeveless sweatshirt that said GYMSHARK, and gym shorts. "Ok, now I am going to show you the moves, and you will follow, but first lets stretch!" 

For the past four hours, we did exactly as Monica and Atlas instructed. Even though I hated having to dance, it was fun. We laughed, danced, played, and had a bonding time like no other.
