Jerome's POV:

"You cheater!"

Patricia saw Mara and me hugging, and she ran off back to the hotel. I let Mara go, and shouted after her, telling her to wait. She didn't stop, so I ran after her. Mara was running close behind me.

Patricia was running faster than she had ever run. Her leather boots were heavy, but she ran extremely quickly. Neither Mara nor I could catch up to her. When she got back to the hotel, she ran and locked herself in her room. Mara pounded on the door, shouting, "Patricia, let us in! It's not what you think it is! Really! "

We could hear weeping sounds from behind the door. "No!" Came a muffled reply.

"Patricia! Please, just listen to me!" I shouted to Patricia. Mick, Fabian, and Alfie heard us shouting to her, and decided to come help us. We went outside the hotel. Patricia's room was on the second floor and there was a large windowsill that we could climb up onto. Her window was open, but I figured that I would find a way to open it later from the outside.

Mick and Fabian cupped their hands together to make a stand for me to climb up on. From their hands, I could pull myself up onto the windowsill. There, I would find a way to open the window. Alfie and Mara stood at their side and tried not to get into our way. I got up onto their hands and Alfie stood behind me, ready to catch me if I fell. I felt like a cheerleader doing some fancy moves. I was wobbling front and back; it felt like I was about to fall! Then, I remembered my sister telling me about her doing those tricks on the cheerleading squad. I lifted my hands above my head to form a Y-shape. This helped me balance on their hands. Slowly, I grabbed the windowsill. I pulled myself up and stepped on it. I tried to find a way to open the window, but there was no way I could open it from the outside.

I was deciding whether or not to knock on the window. I decided to knock. I slowly knocked two times, and Patricia came to the window. She shrieked loudly when she saw me and shouted, "Slime ball, what are you doing? You're going to die! Get back down!"

I decided to try to explain to Patricia. "Patricia, just listen to me."

"No! Go away, Jerome. I never want to talk to you again."

She slammed the window in my face, and I slowly hopped down.

Mara saw the disappointment on my face. She hooked her arm into my arm, and said, "So, have you seen Nina or Amber?'" I could tell she was trying to comfort me and take my mind off the topic, but it didn't work.

Nina's POV:

As Amber and I walked down the beach, we didn't find Mara. Just as we were

about to give up and turn around back to the hotel, two men crashed into us.

One of the men were about the same height Victor and was walking towards the

library. His nose was in the air and he was walking very quickly. The other man was short and had small little strides. He was walking quickly behind the first man.

I caught a glimpse of the first man's face. He looked a lot like Rufus Zeno! I grabbed Amber and pushed her behind a bush. When she opened her mouth to protest, I put a finger over my lip, telling her that I'd explain later. She shook her head, but didn't say anything else. After they walked past us, we walked out, and I told Amber about my theory of the man being Rufus Zeno and Jolon.

Amber stared at me, her eyes wide with disbelief. Then, she shook her head, "No, Nina. Rufus Zeno isn't in the Bahamas remember? He's in England!" I shook my head, but decided not to argue with Amber right now. I'd tell the others when we got back.

When we got back to the hotel, I was very confused. Jerome and Mara were sitting together on the couch. Jerome was looking very downcast, and Mara was desperately trying to get him to talk to her. Amber looked around for a few minutes and understood the situation immediately. "Oh, I get it! Jerome found Mara, and then something happened, so Patricia thought Jerome was a two-timing cheater, then they sort of but not really broke-up and now Jerome and Patricia won't talk. And Mara doesn't actually really like Jerome, but Patricia doesn't know, so she won't listen or talk to either Jerome or Patricia."

I stared at the blonde. "How do you even know this, Amber?"

She looked at me in disbelief. "Nina, I thought you were supposed to be the smart one. I mean, I'm not particularly good at science, but I guess I'm good at chemistry, now. Haha, get it, Nina? Chemistry?"

I rolled my eyes, but didn't say anything else to Amber. I looked at Mara, and motioned for her to come over. She patted Jerome's arm and then walked towards me. I whispered to her, "Is Jerome okay? What's up with him and Patricia? Do you still like him?"

She looked at me and said, "Well, Rufus Zeno had me trapped in a cave with some bloodsuckers, then I couldn't get out, so Jerome freed me. And I ran out and hugged him and Patricia saw, so she thought he was cheating on her, so now she won't talk or listen to him, and they're both really upset. And no, I don't like him. I realized what a great couple he and Patricia made, so I decided to stop." She sat down next to Jerome, but didn't say anything else.

Amber dragged me to Patricia's room, and pounded on the door, shouting, "Patricia! Let us in. It's Nina and Amber!" After a while, Patricia finally opened the door. Her eyes were red and puffy; we knew she'd been crying before she opened the door.

Amber dragged past Patricia, into her room, and closed the door behind us. I shrugged at Patricia, telling her that even I didn't know what Amber was planning on doing. Patricia glared at Amber and said, "What do you want, Miss Prissy?"

Amber looked shocked, but didn't say anything about that, instead she quickly said, "Jerome and Mara don't like each other. Jerome likes you! You just won't listen to them. You're such a stubborn cow, sometimes, Patricia."

Patricia looked shocked. "What?"

"You never listen to what anyone says, you are so stubborn. Sometimes, you have to give in and accept what others have to say. Do you even know what happened? You have to stop jumping to conclusions when you don't even know the full story. Well, you know what I'll give you a summary. Mara was about to die and Jerome saved her life."

I've never heard Amber say anything like that before. I looked at her a bit shocked, but she didn't break eye contact with Patricia. Her eyes were glowing and her hair seemed to radiate light around her. Her eyes were bright with fury.

Patricia nodded slowly and said, "Alright, I'll go talk to him later."

Amber turned back into her normal self and said, "Yay! I just saved Patrome." With that, she skipped out of Patricia's room. Neither of us said anything. We just stared at Amber, trying to figure out what was happening.
