After everyone left except Fabian and Amber, Amber immediately screamed, "Hot tub time!" I shook my head, smiling. Fabian's lips, so near my ear, whispered, "Where do I sleep, so I know where to put my suitcase?" It tickled my ear. Amber looked between me and Fabian, and announced she would take the couch.

I blushed, and said, "Fabian, the only other spot is my double bed. It's not too late for you to exchange with someone else…" He shook his head, and kissed the top of my head. "I'm fine with the bed," he whispered. I smiled, and turned, moving my head upwards so that his lips traveled down to my mouth.

"I'll be in the bathroom," I heard Amber say. I wrapped my arms around Fabian's neck. Footsteps trailed up the staircase, and I heard the bathroom door slam.

I stopped for a moment to breathe. "Do you…want to get dressed?" he asked. "There are no more rooms with doors, though," I said, confused. "Exactly," he whispered. I smiled, but held up a hand. "If I'm going to do this, let's wait until tonight. I haven't been sexually active since before we broke up and I left," I told him. "And, that was the one time, and we may or may not have been under the influence of alcohol," I added.

Trudy had thrown a party at Anubis that day, and I had seen Jerome near the punch, holding a flask of something, right before I had a cup of it. That night, we snuck off and I lost my virginity on the cold floor of the attic. Luckily, this time, Harris had foreseen this situation (after all, I am a teenager) and stocked some condoms and birth control pills.

Amber burst out of the bathroom in a VERY small red bikini. "HOT TUB TIME!" she squealed, and ran down the stairs. "My turn," I laughed, and ran up the spiral staircase.

I grabbed my favorite turquoise tankini from my bureau and hopped into the bathroom. As I got dressed, I noticed how different I even looked; the last time I was here, I had a permanent scowl on my face, and was so skinny you could practically count the vertebrae on my spine. This time, though, I had gained more weight, and I was curvier. The scowl had disappeared, replaced with a contented look on my face. I smiled at my reflection and came out of the bathroom.

Amber was in the hot tub, squealing at the view of London. Fabian had gotten dressed in swimming trunks (probably Amber had been busy with the view, and he went behind the double bed) and was in the hot tub, too. I reached into the mini fridge on the second level, and grabbed three water bottles. I joined them, handing two of the bottles to Amber and Fabian, and keeping one for myself.

"And to think, we are going to go all over the world!" Amber yelled. Unfortunately, a window was open. A hotel right beside us, too. Sure enough, a window opened about our level, and a very familiar blonde yelled back, "SHUT UP!" "Jerome?" I asked, surprised. He laughed, and I swore I could hear Alfie say, "I knew they'd be surprised!" Amber was ecstatic about the turn of events, and exclaimed, "WE DON'T HAVE TO USE PHONES! THIS IS SO AWESOME! IS MARA OR JOY THERE? I WANT TO TALK TO THEM! OMIGOD THIS IS SO COOL!" Another voice, this time from upstairs, yelled, "WOULD YOU SHUT UP? SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO LISTEN TO MUSIC!"

Fabian laughed. "What kind of music?" he asked. "I WAS LISTENING TO RAISE YOUR GLASS!" The voice said, annoyed. He laughed, and called over to Jerome and Alfie, "BACK ME UP WHILE I SING!" "What are you…?" I asked, but he started singing:

Right, right, turn off the lights

We're gonna lose our minds tonight

What's the dealio?

I love when it's all too much

5 a.m. turn the radio up

Where's the rock and roll?

Party crasher, panty snatcha'

Call me up if you are gangsta'

Don't be fancy

Just get dancey

Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong

In all the right ways

All my underdogs, we will never be never be

Anything but loud

And nitty gritty dirty little freaks

Won't you come on, and come on and

Raise your glass

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass!

Slam, slam, oh hot damn

What part of party don't you understand?

Wish you'd just freak out

Can't stop coming in hot

I should be locked up right on the spot

It's so on right now

Party crasher, panty snatcha'

Call me up if you want gangsta'

Don't be fancy

Just get dancey

Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong

In all the right ways

All my underdogs, we will never be, never be

Anything but loud

And nitty gritty dirty little freaks

Won't you come on and come on and

Raise your glass

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass!

Just you come on and come on and

Raise your glass!

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass!

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass!

Oh shit, my glass is empty…

That sucks!

So if you're too school for cool

And you're treated like a fool (Like a fool)

You could choose to let it go

We can always, we can always

Party on our own…

So raise your

So raise your glass if you are wrong

In all the right ways!

All my underdogs, we will never be, never

Anything but loud

And nitty gritty, dirty little freaks

So raise your glass if you are wrong

In all the right ways!

All my underdogs, we will never be, never be!

Anything but loud

And nitty gritty, dirty little freaks

Won't you come on and come on and

Raise your glass

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass

Won't you come on and come on and

Raise your glass

For me

Just come on and come on and

Raise your glass…for me!

I laughed. They sounded really good! The person upstairs paused, and then asked, "You guys should look into a record deal." Fabian laughed, and grabbed me. "We got Nina Martin right here!" He hollered. "The pregnant girl?" They asked. "Seriously? I AM NOT PREGNANT!" I yelled. "Just teasing," they said. "Well, we're only here for a limited time! Any song requests?" I asked. "Um... 'We Found Love' by Rihanna?" They suggested. "Sure, but my friend Amber's gonna have to help me," I said, smiling at her. I began:

(Nina)

Yellow diamonds in the light

Now we're standing side by side

As your shadow crosses mine

What it takes to come alive

It's the way I'm feeling

I just can't deny

But I've got to let it go…

(Both)

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

(Amber)

Shine a light through an open door

Love and life I will divide

Turn away 'cause I need you more

Feel the heartbeat in my mind

(Nina)

It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny

But I've got to let it go…

(Both)

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

(Nina) Yellow diamonds in the light ([Amber]: In the light)

(Nina) Now we're standing side by side ([Amber]: Oh, oh)

As your shadow crosses mine

(Amber)

We found love

(Both)

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

[Nina] We found love

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

I laughed as we finished. I mean, we were singing songs in a hot tub to a fan of mine! How much better could life get? And Amber was amazing at singing! Why didn't she get a record deal?

"That was so cool!" The voice gushed. "Thank you! We'll be here five days!" Our friends at Anubis and the voice laughed, as well as some other people. I looked down from the window and saw a crowd had gathered at the street, even though we were five stories above. A smaller crowd was also on the hotel roof, and some people had forced their way into Jerome and Alfie's room. "How did they hear us?" I whispered to Fabian. He shrugged. I looked around the hot tub, and realized that, about a foot away from us was a microphone. I looked up at the ceiling, and tiny speakers that I hadn't seen before were mounted on it. "Harris," I growled. He was so going to pay for this.

Well, what do you think?
