I heard Alex talking to Alison. "any last words? Alison?" he said. but Emily stopped him. "I don't know if she needs it." She said convincing. He pushed me on my knees and putted the gun to my head. When Alex turned around, Alison kicked him, took his gun and shooted him down in his calf. I laughed and said "yeah! That's right! Bow for the queen!." Well well "queen" you have only one thing to do! Shoot him, and you win. I looked at Emily for a second and nodded. Noo, I have a better idea. She walked slowly at some plants and got a bowl with paint in it. Everyone starts to laugh and yell. But I didn't know what was happening. At that moment, she threw pink paint all over me. I stood up and shook my head to get the paint of me. The girls were screaming of joy and they saw how incredible Emily was. I looked at her through the paint and winked at her. I could read her lips saying thank you.
I slowly stand up and watch the girls celebrating their victory. I laughed and whipped the paint of my face and threw it at Emily. Serena came to me and kissed me. But what I didn't know, is that she had a bucket of blue paint behind her back. So after she kissed me gently, she did a step backwards before I got the blue paint all over me. "OKAY!"I yelled. "is there someone else with a bucket of paint?! I think it is good to know because if that is not the case, this blond girl over here has to run for her life right now." I pointed at Serena and she saw the "now-you're-screwed" look in my eyes. She slowly took a couple of steps backwards before she turned around and ran away. I pulled out another dollop of paint from my face and waited a few seconds before I ran after Serena. When I started running, I could hear Emily and the girls yell: Run Serena! Run! I knew where she was running to so I cut her off and catched her at the point where we meet.
I let her go, but she was still trapped. I pulled of my shirt and grabbed her in a stranglehold. I secretly grabbed her phone out of her pocked and threw it in the grass. I walked with her to the pool and turned around. "Go upstairs and change your clothes into old one. I'm not going to ruin your favourite shirt." I whispered in her ear and kissed her on her jaw. She smiled as she run upstairs. After a minute, Serena was standing next to me in an old t-shirt of mine. I laughed and asked her if she want to put up a fight scene. She nodded and pushed me to the ground. I heard the guys coming so I blocked some of her "Punches" and threw her of me. I jumped up and dived another time for a side kick. When everyone arrived, I turned the scene a bit. I walked slowly backwards and stand still at the edge of the swimming pool. I stopped dodging and just waited for Serena to kick again. The first attack was a low kick, I dodged that by jumping. But when I was in the air, she pushed me to the pool. I acted if it was a surprise for me and I grabbed Emily's arm and pulled her with me. When I came up again, I saw the startled face of Serena. I swam to the edge I coughed when I was leaning on it. I came out of the water and coughed another time. She went to me to look if I were okay. "Vince! Are you okay? I'm so sorry! I didn't meant to hit you." Said when she put her hand on my back. I started laughing when I turned around. "Of course I'm fine." Then she understand what happened and she hit me with a flat hand on my chest. You are such a jerk! She laughed when she wanted to hit me again. I grabbed her hands quickly and kissed her passionately. After a couple of seconds I looked behind me. I saw Alex and Jack pushing the other girls in the water and I started laughing. Serena was the only one who wasn't thrown in the pool yet. So I grabbed her waist and kissed her. "time to get that paint of your face my angel". I said while I jumped to the pool and pulled her with me.
That night I cooked for everyone. When the boys went home that evening, and the girls went upstairs, Serena and I were laying on the couch. We were really tired, so I changed the couch into a bed and kissed Serena one more time full with passion and love goodnight. A few minutes after that we fell asleep. she was sleeping with her head on my chest.
The next morning I woke up late. Serena looked at me while I woke up. I smiled sleepy and asked her: How long are you awake? "Long enough to see that your hair Is still full of blue paint drips." She laughed and kissed me on my forehead. She wanted to turn her head again but I hold her chin in my thumb and forefinger and pulled her back to kiss her again. I disturbed the kissing moment and started laughing. "I have to start with the breakfast for our guests." I yawned a bit and wanted to walk to the kitchen. But Serena had clearly a different idea. She putted her hands on my waist and walked me outside. I wasn't good awake yet to see what she wanted to do, so I just walked with her. "I know you are going to make me regret this. But you really have to wake up now." She said. I didn't understand what she meant. But it was clear in a second. We walked to the pool, and without any resistance, she pushed me into the cold pool. The cold pool woke me up immediately. When I climbed out of the water, I saw that Serena already ran away. I grabbed some sweatpants and sprayed some perfume. And started cooking breakfast for the girls.
I walked like a waiter to the bedroom of the girls and quietly opened the door. I saw Serena sitting in the room with an cheeky smile on her face. The other girls were still asleep so I placed the trays for the girl the dish was for. I walked back down to the kitchen and served 6 glasses of fresh fruit juice. I placed the glasses on another tray and walked to the room again. When I came in, I saw the girls still sleeping. So I placed the tray on the nightstand and I sit down next to Serena. I was still tired so I slowly lay down with my head on her legs and I took the little hat she was wearing and covered my eyes with it. She ran her hand through my hair and I fell asleep. After fifteen minutes, Serena woke me up. I saw the ladies waking up to, so I took without any noise, the covers of the trays. "Good morning ladies." The girls then noticed I made breakfast for them. I made everyone's favourite. A filled omelette with an strawberry kiwi smoothie for Alison. Waffles with syrup and a cup of tea for Hanna. Little pancakes with raspberry jam with tea for Aria. Fresh croissants with homemade strawberry jam and a cappuccino for Spencer. And French toast with an Espresso for Emily. And as last I removed the cover from Serena's tray. But there wasn't any food under there the cover. Just one small turquoise oblong box and a cupcake with turquoise buttercream.
"Did you make all of this?" Hanna asked with big eyes while she was looking to all the plates. I nodded. "Yes I did, I hope you all like it?" I said laughing. "But how did you know what are favourites are? Spencer asked. I smiled a little mysterious. I had done some research Mrs. Hastings. But what is this? Serena asked when she grabbed the little box. "Just open it. its no big deal. Just a little present for the most beautiful girl in the world." I said with a goofy smile. She started blushing. Alison motioned her to sit on the bed. She did and opened the small box. It was a necklace with a little blue heart on it. "Me and you, Jus us two" was engraved in the little heart. She looked at me with a tear in her eye. "Vince… it's beautiful! Thank you so much" she said and she hugged me tight. I kissed her gently when I took the necklace from her. Carefully moved her hair on one shoulder so I could put on her necklace. When I was done I kissed her shoulder. "I'm going to get your breakfast darling" I said when I walked downstairs. There was another plate of French toast on the table. I took it and grabbed a strawberry smoothie. I also took a white rose with me. When I got inside again, I gave Serena her breakfast. I took the white rose and broke off the stem. I took her chin with my thumb and forefinger and I turned her head a bit. I picked up the rose again and slid it behind her ear. "There you go! Bon appetite" I said to the girls. after a couple of minutes, Aria broke the silence. "Wow, Vince! It is delicious! Where did you learn to cook like this?" He is watching allot of Donna Hay and Jamie Oliver over the past few years. Serena said when she took a bite of her French toast. I laughed. Yep! I love to make people happy with the food I make. I said while I stole a strawberry from Alison. Most of the fruit is from my own garden, I make fruit salads all the time. I love to make it and its very delicious and easy to make. But if you will excuse me.. I have to go for my daily morning training. If you need me, I'm in the gym downstairs. I said while I stood up and walked to the door.
When I arrived at the gym, I started with the normal daily routine. I put on some music and started with 5 minutes push-ups. After that it was 5 minutes jumping ropes, sit-ups, squats and as last, 10 minutes pull ups. After 5 minutes of pull-ups, I let go of the rod and grabbed some 5 kilo bags and placed it next to the rod. I heared someone coming down, but I ignored it. I jumped again and started with the pull ups again. I was 10 centimetres of the ground. I saw Spencer walking in the room. "Hey Spence, you're here for morning gymnastics too? Oh can you help me for a second? Can you lift one bag on my feet? Thanks. She did what I asked. After putting four bags on my legs, I started again with the pull-ups. After twenty times I let go one of my hands and started taking the bags of my legs. When they were all gone, I let my other hand go too and was standing on the floor again. Is there anything I can help you with? I asked her. No thank you, I just wanted to know what your daily routine was. She answered. I smiled. Well okay then. Are you coming with me?
It was around 2 PM. When I walked up the stairs, Alison stopped me. Wait, Vince? Can I ask you something? "Sure Ali, what's up?" well.. you've showed me the house with almost all the rooms. But there is one more room you didn't show me. Why not? She asked while she looked at me. I took her hand and walked with her to the room she was talking about. "After you!" I said. while I opened the room with a key. I closed the door. It was still dark in there. Then I put the lights on. We were standing in a shooting room. Alison looked at me. She was speechless. I pushed a button and a board was coming forward. It was a target. I took a weapon from the wall and hide it for a second. "Here, you will need this. I gave her a pair of earmuffs. In one move I pulled the gun and shoot at the target. The target looked like a person. I hit him three times in the heart and two times in the shoulder. Alison was shocked and grabbed my arms out of reflex. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." I said when I putted the gun away. "Are you coming with me? I'm going to make some cocktails. She nodded and we walked to the kitchen.
It was later that afternoon. I had made some cocktails and was lying in a hammock. I fell asleep and just oke up. I looked at the girls and I noticed someone was not there. "Hey, where is Serena?" I asked while I was rubbing my eye. "I don't know, he needed to get something I guess.. Alison answered my question. How long has she been gone now? " I think about 20 minutes." She said. I looked at Alison. Twenty minutes? That can't be right? But then I heard a deafening icy scream. I froze. My glass fell in a million pieces apart on the ground. "Serena" I said to myself. And I ran as fast as I can to the scream.
