Milla pulled back from the kiss, completely dazed. She rested her forehead on Tala's.

He smiled, his eyes glittering with possession.

"What are we going to tell Emma?" Milla asked, a little on the breathless side.

"Nothing, not yet anyway," he replied.

"My brother?" she said.

Tala's face fell as he remembered the girl's older brother. "We'll get around to telling Bryan."

Milla smirked. "Kai?"

"He probably already knows," replied Tala.

Milla blinked twice then closed her eyes. Tala took her chin in his thumb and finger, guiding her face upwards so that he could once again kiss the girl.

Milla immediately gave Tala's tongue access to her mouth, pulling him into a deeper kiss. She ran her hands up his built chest and around his neck. Tala wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer than she already was. Tala bit down on her bottom lip, causing a moan to escape Milla's mouth.

Kai had a small smile plastered on his face as he pulled back from kissing Emma.

Emma took a deep breath. "Wow......... that was......... good."

Kai smirked. "What were you expecting?"

Emma grinned. "I dunno."

Kai smirked again and shook his head. "Come on, we'd better head back before Tala or Bryan get royally pissed off."

Emma smiled and started to walk beside Kai. "You know what they're planning?"

"A year of break to collect ourselves and get to know one another better. We can afford to do it because of the cancellation of the Worlds," replied Kai.

"The Worlds were cancelled?"

"Terrorist attack on the three major domes around the world made that decision," he said.

Emma sighed as she remembered the new she had received earlier that week.

"Where are we going?"

Emma shrugged. "All I know is that we're out of here this time tomorrow."

Kai nodded. "Probably Russia."

Emma nodded. "Probably."

Milla stretched and yawned as she plopped herself on the couch, waiting for those around to finally finish packing.

"So......... what's up?" Ian asked as he took the seat next to her.

Milla's eyes sparkled. "Nothing much."

Ian grinned. "Someone's floating today."

Milla threw a pillow at the midget, hitting him squarely in the face. "Whoops......... did I do that?" she smirked.

Ian scowled and was about to chuck a pillow back when his hand was gripped. Immediately Ian dropped the pillow and began to examine it. "Isn't it a pretty looking pillow?" he said.

Bryan released Ian's hand as he dropped the pillow.

At Ian's sudden words, Milla burst out laughing, falling off the couch with a thud, and continued to laugh her head off while rolling around on the floor holding her sides.

Bryan had an eyebrow raised, his eyes sparkling with sheer amusement as he watched her crash into the table, causing her to stop laughing and rub her head.

Spencer took that moment to walk in and looked at the scene before him with an amused look in his eyes.

All the while, Ian sat scowling, trying not to laugh as Milla began to complain that her head hurt.

Kai walked in with Emma and Tala. Tala shook his head and gave Milla a hand up, telling the others that the bus was waiting down stairs for them.

The Majestics!....................................... this sees Enrique flirting with Emma who is about as cold as an ice-block towards him and a fairly snappy Johnny who ends up in deep shit with Milla and therefore ends up in even deeper shit with Tala and Bryan.
