We ordered room service for breakfast and I took a shower while we waited for it to arrive. Oli had packed most of my things into my suitcase for me while I was in the bathroom and even though we had an hour before we had to go, we were pretty much ready. We ate our breakfast cross-legged on the bed together and I laughed every time Oli clumsily let the cereal milk run down his chin as he kind of missed his mouth. It was so funny how I found silly things like that cute, knowing that other people would find it utterly disgusting. At 10:30am, we headed down to the bus and were on our way to Washington DC for Bring Me The Horizon's next show. We all  watched a movie on the bus and Oli sat with his arm around me the entire time as I rested my head against him. Jordan caught us sneak a kiss and smiled at me... I guess he could see that we were comfortable and happy. Luiz messaged me as we got closer to our destination, telling me that he had arrived at the hotel, so I told him we were about twenty minutes away and would be there soon.

We pulled up at the Intercontinental and headed straight up to our rooms. I left my suitcase with Oli and headed to find Luiz's room, a couple of floors above us. As he opened the door, I squealed. It had only been a few days, but it felt like ages since I'd seen him and I hadn't even told him the news that Oli and I were official! "Luiz..." I said as I released him from my hug. "I have news." I said as I walked past him and into his room. I sat down on his bed and looked at him with a smile and I think he already knew what I was going to say. "Oli and I are together together. It's time to hide us from the media." I beamed. "He asked me to be his girlfriend a few nights ago, but I didn't want to steal Hannah's thunder the other day at lunch." I added.
"I knew it!" he squealed. "Oh my God, I knew this was going to happen - you both looked very smitten the other day at lunch. Has he told you he loves you yet?" he asked as he rummaged through his bag.
"What? No." I replied. "Do you think he does?" I asked. Luiz laughed to himself.
"Are you kidding? He's practically ready to put a ring on your finger." he said dramatically with an eye roll. "He was in love with you when I first met him at fashion week... I took him for coffee, remember?" he said, now taking the small bottles of wine from the mini bar and handing me one. "Wait, what? He told you he loves me?" I questioned with shock.
"Well no, but I saw it coming. To you and Oli." he said, making a toast. I smiled and hit my bottle into his. Luiz sat down next to me on the bed as he took a sip of his wine. 
"So have you told him how you feel?!" he questioned. I don't know how he knew I was already in love, but he did know me well... I guess he could tell.
"Not yet." I replied, sipping my wine.
"What? Why haven't you said it?" he asked seriously.
"I was waiting for him to say it first." I replied. Luiz rolled his eyes at me.
"Joy, if you're in love with him, which you obviously are, just tell him! He's probably scared of moving too quickly given your past." he said wisely as he took another drink. "Besides, empower yourself, girl!" he said with a smile. I guess he kind of, maybe, sorta had a point. "So, anyway, forgetting I'm your manager for a second since we're not working and we're just here as friends... how's everything else in the relationship?" he asked. I knew he was asking about sex but didn't want to actually ask. I felt my face go warm and I couldn't help but smile. "If you're asking if the intimate side is good, well, yes it is. It's better than good." I replied with a shy giggle. Luiz hit his bottle into mine again. "I figured... You've been different ever since he stayed with you that first night." he chuckled. "Honestly though, I'm glad. I know my approval isn't necessary, but just so you know, I think he's a nice guy. At the start I wasn't sure, and maybe I had dreams of you dating an A-lister, but after seeing you together, I see there's real love there. I think you're good together and most importantly, I think he'll treat you right." he said, holding up his bottle to cheers again. I smiled and thanked him. "Don't sit on your feelings though... just tell him that you love him. I'd bet my life he feels the same way." he said as he wandered off. I finished up the wine and told Luiz we were going to head out to see some of the monuments nearby but he decided to stay at the hotel and chill out. I left him there to relax, taking onboard what he said about telling Oli how I felt.
