I woke up to the sound of Alexander's frustrated groans as the events of last night came crashing back. Rafael was about to let me in on a sinister secret but before he could say anything I think I blacked out.

How did I end up in my room?

"Great, you're up. You can help me now." Alex stated as he proceeded to jump on his suitcase. "Don't just stand there like a statue, come help!"

A smile broke out on my face, I wonder how he does that. Alex can have many problems and obstacles in his life but somehow he never fails to put a smile on my face. From his attitude I think he slept fairly decent and was ready to fly away from here, I was going to miss him so much!

"I'm going to miss you so much," I whispered after I managed to get his suitcase to close.

In return Alex gave me a sad smile before opening his arms. Wasting no time I ran straight into him, making him stumble slightly.

"I'm going to miss you too Nina!" He replied, releasing me from the hug and grabbing any last items that he didn't want to forget.

That reminds me, Alex was probably in my room when I somehow appeared here. He'll know what happened.

"Oh Alex," I said, "How did I get back to my room last night?"

He smirked at me. "Why don't you remember? Rafael carried you here. Apparently you fell asleep in the library, how does one do that anyways?"

Instead of telling him the real reason I decided to go along with the excuse Rafael had made. "We were reading some books and I think I must've gotten bored at some point and dozed off."

Alex looked suspicious but he decided to let it go. Soon, a knock on the door told us that it was time for Alex to go.

"Have a safe flight, promise to text and call me frequently!" I exclaimed. "Don't forget to take care of yourself and keep me updated about your father's health."

"Yes mother," he said with a sarcastic tone but replacing it with sincerity later. "I hope you find the right man." And with that, he disappeared out the doors.

Getting used to not seeing Alexander's cheeky smile and hearing his funny ideas would be hard but I suppose it'll be okay since he promised to stay in touch.

Normally I would go down for breakfast but I still felt tired since it was only six in the morning, the sun was only just beginning to rise and it wasn't too bright yet. Therefore, I decided to sleep in.

As soon I jumped into bed Natalia's voice called at me.

"Get ready. Girls' spa day today, make sure you order something for breakfast first and then get ready. We leave promptly at ten." She shouted, outside my door.

I groaned into one of the pillows. "Ugh fine, I'll be ready." Her footsteps started walking away from my door at the response.

What does one wear at the spa? I opted for some loose fitting clothes and a bathing suit underneath. If it was just me and Angel I probably would have wore a bikini but since Natalia was coming too I refrained myself because I wasn't in the mood to rebel. But I wasn't going to wear a plain old bathing suit so I chose a more modern one.
