Seth woke up the next morning. He sat up and ran a hand through his hair and stretched. He got out of bed and quickly dressed into his swimming trunks, a white wife beater and flip flops. He was looking forward to asking Nina to join him in surfing. He had to admit, Nina was a pretty great surfer! He was amazed at how she handled the waves. He was even thinking of asking her to surf against him, you know, have a little competition. He opened the curtains to let the sun shine through. It was yet again another beautiful day! Not a cloud in sight and a perfect day to swim.

"I'll see you this afternoon!"

Seth jumped. That voice… it was Nina's! He looked out the window and saw her outside with Giorgio, Mr. Ridgemount and Baumer.

"Who are those two guys?" Seth didn't know who the two big bosses were. He knew they owned the hotel but that's about it. He saw Nina give Baumer a kiss on the lips and got into the limo that was beside them. The two bosses got in after her. So Nina was only going to be back in the afternoon…

Wait a minute, wasn't it already the afternoon? What time was it?

Seth glanced at the clock on the nightstand next to his bed. 9:00am

Why in the…

Seth never woke up early. He always woke up later than 11:00am! What was Nina doing to him? He sighed and grabbed his room key. He might as well grab some breakfast.

Xxx

Seth had spent the whole morning in the DR. He hadn't even realized that time went by so quickly. He was waiting for Nina to come back. It was taking long for her to come back though. He was almost getting…worried.

The entrance to the hotel opened and those two bosses came through the door with Nina behind them.

"Andrew!"

Seth saw Nina wrap her arms around him and give him a kiss.

That's it.

He had to find out who those two men were.

Seth left a 20$ bill on the table and walked over to them, going over to the young couple. "So Andrew, aren't you going to introduce me?"

Baumer had his arm draped around Nina. "To?" He asked.

"Ah, Mr. Evans. The celebrity surfer." Mr. Ridgemount extended a hand to Seth. "I'm James Ridgemount, co-owner as of last year, of Surfer's Paradise."

Seth smiled and shook hands with Mr. Ridgemount.

"I'm Giorgio Botticelli, co-owner of Surfer's Paradise and this is my daughter Nina." Giorgio flashed a grin and held out his hand for Seth to shake.

Seth smiled and shook hands with Giorgio. "I feel honored to meeting the owners of this wonderful hotel. I must say, it's really amazing to be here."

"Thank you, Mr. Evans."

"Oh please Mr. Ridgemount. Call me, Seth."

Baumer rolled his eyes. Suck up.

"Well Seth, it was nice to meet you but I'm afraid we must be going." Mr. Ridgemount said.

"That's right. It was really nice meeting you, Seth." Giorgio left with Mr. Ridgemount.

When they left, Seth turned to Nina. "Wow Nina, I didn't know you were the daughter of one of the big bosses."

"Oh, I didn't tell you?"

"Nope."

"Oh…well I am!"

"Oh yes, I was wondering if you wanted to surf today." Seth asked her.

"Sure!" Nina grinned.

Seth glanced at Baumer and saw that he was getting tense. A smirk appeared on his lips.

Nina turned to face Baumer. "I didn't forget about dinner tonight. I'll surf and come meet you." She smiled widely at him.

Baumer nodded. "Okay, have fun." Then he watched as Seth and Nina walked in direction to the beach.

Xxx

"It was so fun! There was this big wave and I surfed it!"

"Uh-huh." Baumer twirled his pasta with his fork and put it in his mouth. All she's been talking about is surfing and how great Seth is at it.

"I wiped out twice but-"

Baumer looked up and swallowed his food. "Oh my god, are you okay?"

"Yeah." Nina smiled. "Seth helped me. I'm all good."

There she goes with the "Seth this", "Seth that". Baumer couldn't take it anymore. He took his wallet, grabbed two twenties and placed them on the table. He rose from his seat and began walking out of the DR.

"A-Andrew! Where are you going?" Nina grabbed her wristlet and followed him.

"I just feel a little sick that's all." Baumer replied.

"Okay, you can come to the royal suite if you want and you can relax there."

"Thank you for the offer but I'm just going to lie down in my room."

"O-Oh…okay."

Baumer left her standing in the lobby alone.
