The Selection (1x1 with AnnaCat17)

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Elliott blushed and hid her face in Romeo's shoulder. "We're not yet engaged, Victory," she giggled,her arms wrapping around Romeo's waist.

Abril glanced over at Elliott and Victory. She rolled her eyes, muttering something under her breath and went back to playing with Pavel's hair.

Victory rolled her eyes and smiled. "Ok but you will be. Everyone that was in the selection is engaged except for us."

Pavel gently squeezed Abril's hand. "Its ok. Dont worry about what they think."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Elliott blushed, giving Romeo's cheek a kiss. She rested her head against his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

Abril sighed, relaxing a bit as she held on to his hand. "It does, though, because she's my maid of honour," she whispered.

[AnnaCat17]

Victory leaned over the front seat to look at the road ahead of them and so she could talk to Atlas. "Are we almost there?"

"Which is why she is worried." He whispered back. "She doesnt want me to hurt you or anyone else again. Dont worry. She wont ruin your wedding."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Atlas looked over his shoulder at her and was surprised at how close she was to him. He glanced down at her lips, biting his. He resisted the urge to kiss her, knowing that it would only make things awkward. He repeated her question in his head for it to register, feeling embarrassed because he knew it was obvious that he had hesitated. "Yep. We're almost there."

Abril sighed, leaning closer so their noses brushed. "I'm glad, but I hope she'll be happy eventually. I would have liked to have her happy for me, even if this wasn't the best of situations."

[AnnaCat17]

Victory giggled as she looked at him. "Oh no. I think you already have heat stroke and we havent even gone in the sun yet. Youll be dead before the week is up at this rate."

"Abril, no one is happy for you. You are beibg forced to marry me." He softly kissed her nose. He didnt care if the others hated him. He had her and Romeo. He would be ok.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Atlas laughed, his face flushing faintly. "I think you'll have to keep an eye on me, then, make sure I don't die," he teased, grinning at her.

Abril giggled a bit, setting her hand on his waist. "They'll get over it."

[AnnaCat17]

Victory grinned happily but gave out a pretend annoyed sigh. "Fine. If i must. If i had known getting a room mate would come with so many responsibilities i wouldn't have done it."

Pavel grunted in response and kissed her cheek before looking out the window as they pulled up to the large beach house. He got out and helped Abril out before looking out at the ocean. "What do you think?"

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Atlas chuckled, smirking at her. "That's too bad. Looks like you're going to have your hands full this vacation."

Abril took his hand, getting out of the vehicle. "It's perfect," she said, smiling as she looked around. She looked over at Elliott as she got out of the limo, grinning excitedly as she quickly took off her shoes to feel the sand on her feet.

[AnnaCat17]

Victory got out of the limo as soon as they stopped, abandoning the conversation. "Im going to get changed and be in the water if anyone needs me." She said excitedly before running off to get a room and change.

Romeo breathed in deeply as be stood outside of the limo, enjoying the fresh air. "This will be nice." He looked over to where Pavel and Abril stood. "I never got to formally tell you but congratulations on the baby, Abril. Im really happy for you both."

Sutton picked up his and Solace's bags, silently carrying them inside.
