Nicky's P.O.V.
Everyone in the crew is awake and knows that Zara and Emma are coming. They agreed totally to it when I told them. In fact they're really excited to meet them personally.
I have sent Hatim to pick them up. He must already be there. I myself am really excited to see them. I don't feel sleepy at all right now even though its 3.
Nathalia walks towards me and says," Here they are" and flashes a large smile and then there's a knock on the door.
Here they come.
I rush towards the door just to see that Rick is already there. I push him away with all my strength and open the door. All I see is Hatim with two big suitcases and I can't see the girls anywhere.
I raise an eyebrow. He gestures behind his shoulder and walks past me in the suite but not without giving me a wink.
Zara and Emma are talking softly and they aren't even realising that behind me almost the entire crew is staring at them.
Rick coughs and that catches their attention. Both of them stop amidst their conversation, blush and look down.
Then Emma speaks up.
"Err sorry for not paying attention earlier but can we come in?" she asks awkwardly.
"Yes!" Nathalia says cheerfully from behind me.
Zara looks up and for a second, just for a second, our eyes meet and I smile. I smile, she blushes and looks down again. I know she's smiling too.
Nathalia escorts them in the suite and tells them to be comfortable. All this while Zara was looking down and had a light pink blush on her cheeks. I didn't even get to talk to her, you know! Nathalia hurriedly took them away from me and escorted them to the spare room.
I guess I'll just get to talk to Zara in the morning. But I don't feel sleepy anymore. I was in a deep slumber when she had called but now I'm wide awake. Maybe I should just try to sleep.
********
30 minutes later, I still couldn't sleep. I heard the television switching on. I go to the main room and see that Zara is sitting on the couch Indian style and intently watching Mean Girls.
I go sit on the couch and say a Hi. As soon as she sees me she says a quick hi and gets up and tries to walk quickly towards her room but I am quick enough to grab her wrist and make her stop.
"Why are you so shy when talking to me face to face. Like, almost an hour ago, we talked as if we were friends on the phone then why be so shy face to face?"
"Err...I am, like, shy at first. That is why. It will take me, at least a day to not be shy. But since we're talking casually right now, maybe I won't be so shy anymore." she said with a smile.
"That's better" I said.
"Okay I've gotta sleep now. I feel a little bit sleepy, so....good night!" she said and literally ran away.
*Fast forward to the next morning*
Zara's P.O.V.
"Wake up dear Emma" I sang in the most annoying way I could.
"Go away. Let me sleep. I've been awake a lot last night." came her reply.
"Oh. As if I haven't been awake either! We were together all the time, okay? And I don't think that you wanna be late today. Since we're going to see Hardwell today...." I trailed off. Knowing that this would wake her up.
"I'm up! My boyfriend must see me in a good state. I must look sexy too." she winks. We both burst out laughing. This is the thing with best friends. Almost all the time, both of you are thinking about the same things. It's like you can read the other person's mind.
After, like, an hour, she was finally ready and we were just about to leave when I remembered forgot to ask Nicky about his day and at what time was the party and everything.
I went out of our room and couldn't find anyone. Maybe everyone was in their rooms. I knocked on a room not knowing who was inside.
Sander opened the door and we chatted a bit before I asked him where Nicky's room was. He smiled coyly at me and told me that it was just next to his.
I knocked twice on Nicky's door. He didn't open. I knocked again. He still didn't open. So I tried banging my fists on the door and after a minute he opened the door and he had a super annoyed look on his face. That changed when he saw me.
"I'm sorry I didn't open the door. Please come in." he said.
I went inside.
"Err....I had to...ask you...about the-" he cut me off before I could finish.
"The after party. Its starts at midnight and ends at God knows what time." he said. I smiled.
He explained me that after going to Bayfront Park, I and Emma could come back here and get ready for the party. We would leave with Nicky.
Emma was so excited to see Hardwell today that she didn't even listen to what I had to say about the party and all.
I wish she always remains this happy.
We left for Bayfront Park after some 10 minutes and the day went by.
