Hey guys, I'm so sorry for taking so long for me to meet these two. I had to stabilize everything first, anyway, here we go. I hope you like it.
Chapter 6: Jo
"Okay guys!" Jo said cheerily. "I'll see you monday." Her friends waved.
Today was a tiring day! Steph talked to her about Sean, and ask her if they were dating. Jo answered no but Steph kept pushing her just to have her admit that the two were dating, but it was still a no.
Then today was her midterms exam and she had been studying so hopefully she'll pass
Tomorrow will be the last day of Camilla and Brett here in Iowa so she was heading to the inn to celebrate with them.
She was looking at her phone when she suddenly dropped it along with her books. 5 books.
The guy who was running stopped to helped her.
"Sorry about that I, wait..." She looked up to face the guy. "You're the one who bumped into me and made me drop my sandwich earlier."
"Oh my gosh. Yeah, guilty." Jo said looking back down because of embarrassment.
"Nah, it's fine. I was pissed off though." He extended his hand. "Alex."
Jo took it. "Jo. Why were you such in a hurry?" They started walking in the same direction.
"Why were you?" Alex grinned. He's not as hot as Sean or Brett but his smile feels like the light at the end of the tunnel. 'Wait, what was I thinking?' Jo thought.
"Uh...I uh, was running late and had to buy some materials for our chem project which I should've bought a week ago but my sister visited me along with her, uh, friend."
"Fair enough. I wasn't in a hurry, I just like to run." Alex shrugged as he puts his hands in his pockets.
"In jeans and business shoes?" Jo grinned.
"Hey! Don't judge my work out outfit." He bantered playfully.
They were about to cross the road towards the inn when Jo realized he has been following her.
"Are you following me Alex?" Jo said seriously.
"No, I thought you were following me." Alex laughed as Jo playfully pushed him.
"I'm going to my aunt's inn. Where are you going?"
"Karev's Inn."
"You sure you're not following me?" Alex asked again, his smile not wavering.
"What? Of course."
"That's my aunt's inn."
"Then why have I never seen you before?"
"Keeping tabs with the hot ones huh?"
"You are so full of yourself."
They both laughed. They entered the inn and rode the elevator. Alex was about to press 3 but Jo beat him to it.
They waited, awkward silence enveloping them both.
The elevator dinged and the door opened. Alex gestured Jo to go ahead first and they stopped at the same time.
"Okay, you're totally following me." Alex said when they realized they were still with each other.
Jo knocked on the door and Alex waited, a guy opened the door with a tank top. Alex instantly got jealous of his body, he's fit, yes, but he doesn't have a six pack. Not even a four.
"Hey Jo, c'mon in." The guy was british. Yup chicks dig british guys. Jo looked back at him and stuck her tongue out.
Jo entered Camilla's room which surprisingly is a mess.
"Hey you're here." Camilla greeted her with a hug.
"You're packed already? Surprising." Jo used her british accent because when it's just three of them, she can be whatever she wants. Hell, Brett's even treating her like she's a princess. Well she is, but you get the point.
"Yes, I can change you know?" Camilla frantically looks for something in a luggage.
"Babe, where's my charger?" Camilla called.
"Blue bag, small pocket." Brett answered from the bathroom.
Jo looked at her sister with her arms crossed. "Babe?" She mocked Camilla's tone.
"Oh right. Yes, we are together. Finally. And he'll break up with Akihira as soon as we landed back to England." Camilla explained.
Brett emerged from the bathroom and Jo hugged him. "Took you long enough." Jo punched him in the arm.
"You know I was tied to my dad, right?" Brett reasoned as he rubbed his arm.
"And you still are!" Camilla joined in.
"I'm working on it." He kissed her nose.
"Ew, guys, if you're gonna do it, let me at least leave first." The couple laughed as Camilla hugged her sister.
They exited the door and went to the elevator. The door was closing when a hand stops it and it opened again. It was Alex.
"Are you kidding me?" Alex shooked his head as he got in.
"5 minutes of talking and you're already obsessed with me. Shocker." Jo joked. Then she noticed the two looking confused.
"Oh there's two of you?" Alex finally noticed their company.
"It's called twins." Jo smirked at Alex.
"Camilla, Brett meet Alex. Alex, Camilla and Brett."
"Hi, nice to meet you." Camilla said in her american accent as she shook his hand.
"You too." Alex smiled. 'There it is again, butterflies.' Jo thought.
"So how'd you two meet?" Brett asked. Looking like he's ready to tackle Alex down without even acknowledging his extended hand.
"Well, Jake over here," Alex gestured to Jo. "bumped into me earlier this morning, causing me to drop my hotdog sandwich, which is by the way supposed to be my breakfast. Then, because she was enchanted by my looks..."
"Hey!" Jo interrupted his speech. "You changed my name, and now you're saying I'm in love with you?" Jo squinted her eyes.
Alex seemed to think deeply, "Hmmm. Yeah, you are."
"Shut up!" Jo laughed loudly.
Camilla looked at the two, she can barely remember the time when Jo was this happy.
"It's not my fault that I'm so hot, Princess." He whispered on her ears silently but Camilla and Brett heard it because it was too silent.
The elevator opened and they all got out. Alex noticed that Brett has been eyeing him since they first met.
"Why would you call me that?" Jo said nervously.
"Have you seen yourself?" Alex said and waved goodbye. Entering the mini restaurant that his uncle runs.
Unbeknownst to Alex, the three royalties are heading there too.
"Does he know?" Camilla asked Jo.
"What? I don't know! We just met earlier." Jo defended
"Be careful, Jo." Camilla whispered harshly. "He might be dad's spy or something."
