Ross P.O.V.

"Cockblockers." I folded my hands in front of my chest childishly and frowned.

"In the flesh, my brother." Ryland smirked at me.

"Why do I get the feeling this was because of Jennifer?"

"Jennifer?" Rocky frowned in confusion.

"His girlfriend."

"Oh." Rocky said, amused.

"How did we suddenly change the topic from Rachel to Jennifer?" Ratliff threw his hands up, exaggerating his actions.

"Well, we did interfere before anything got 21 years and older." Riker said, smirking while Ratliff nodded his head at what Riker said.

"Hey. Hey. My innocent ears!" Ryland said as he covered his ears.

"Innocent? You have several girlfriends that you've given you're kisses to!" I said, feign a feeling of shock. Everyone just stared at me.

"I know how to charm the ladies better than you, Ross. Besides, I plan how to claim my prey."

"Planning? I planned everything! And you all ruined it!" I gritted my teeth while I said it. The boys were all smirking as they saw me so messed up inside out over a girl. I ran a hand through my hair, stressed. I was never overly stressed. However, for the first time, I'm stressed over this girl that has turned my life upside down in a mere few months...

"I even have the damn roses hidden in my room!"

"Whipped now, aren't you?" Rocky asked as he chuckled at me, "Now you ain't have the right to tease me."

"You too! You're wrapped around Amethyst's little finger!"

"Woah. No need for the accusation game now." Ratliff intervened as he tried to calm me down, "The girls wouldn't want to see us fighting over them."

"Yea," Ryland said as he pushed a few buttons here and there on the audio interface, "I don't think Rachel would want to see that face of yours bruised either."

I balled my hands into fists and was about to walk out of the room when Rocky spoke again.

"Rydel shared something rather interesting about Rachel on the way here. Something that she was about to do of course."

"Well... spill what Rydel said then."

They look at each other hesitantly and I snapped impatient.

"Come on! I'm going to know about this anyway! Just tell me what did Rydel say-"

"Nah... We'll just wait for you to see it with your eyes."

Meanwhile... with the girls...

Rydel's P.O.V.

"No!" She shouted as we showed her a two piece bathing suit. A bikini in fact. I felt it would really suit her figure but when I showed it to her, she immediately turned red as a tomato and rejected it, making us all laugh at her reaction.

"No!" She rejected our suggestion again when we showed her another two piece bathing suit which did cover more than what we did first offer.

"Can't I just choose my own bathing suit?" Rachel complained.

"No." The rest of us said in unison.

"This is so unfair!" she groaned.

"The lesser you complain and reject the pieces, the better you would feel." Haley said as she pursued to dig another piece, her brown locks framing her face as she bent down.

We were all rummaging a few of my closets that held my old clothes for a suitable bathing suit for Rachel.

"Plus, Rydel chose all of ours. So we, technically, weren't given a choice either." Amethyst said, her red locks jumping as she folded her arms in front of her chest and pouted at Rachel as she rummaged throw the same pile of clothes with me.

It was true. I had loads of cute clothing that I had outgrown and fitted them perfectly. It would have been a waste to throw them away.

"Really? Cause I'm getting the benefit of the doubt. I rather be there in shirts and pants." Rachel shook her head, her black hair, tied neatly in a ponytail, following her movements.

"Trust me. Me too." Raven said as she went into another of my closets.

"Found one that would suit you." Amethyst said in a hurry as she took it to Rachel which was being tied onto a chair in my and Haley's room. I had no idea where Amethyst got the ropes to tie Rachel but we did it anyway, for safety precaution.

Amethyst held up a one piece that had a long pair of sleeves and the bottom covered until her thighs.

"I don't care if you like it or not! You're wearing it!" Amethyst stuffed it into Rachel's bag immediately and proceeded to add in some other cosmetics like sunscreen and some lotion.

"As long as I don't have to doll myself up, I'm fine." Rachel said as she suddenly stood up, with the roped unfurling from her body, down to the ground.

"I don't remember untying you..." Haley said, a hand on her chin.

"I was just waiting for you guys to have your fun. And then I'd take mine." She said as she dusted her clothes and left the room in a hurry.

"She could do that?" I blurted out, once she left. Rachel was a particularly scary and violent girl but was filled with a heart of gold. I was afraid to anger her but I sometimes couldn't help but feel like teasing her over the little things that she will get flustered about.

"If she can kick down doors, I'm sure she can tear herself from captivity" Amethyst said, staring at the mess of ropes that once held Rachel prisoner.

When we dragged her, she didn't appear to be able to break free of our iron-like grip or free herself from the ropes.

"She appears scary, but she is really, a lonesome soul..." Haley sighed.

For all my while that I had been injured, Haley had been taken care of me and I was rather grateful towards her. She was a rather cheerful individual but hearing her saying that with such a sadistic tone, really does surprise me.

"Lonesome? She's entertaining. Too bad she's leaving us soon..." Raven said.

"What?" The rest of us girls immediately said, shocked.

Leaving us? Soon? What?

"Shit... I wasn't suppose to say that." Raven said flustered, her hands covering her mouth.

"Spill now, Raven." Now it was her turn to be held captive.

"She wants to take the places of her parents by taking care of her grandparents in Singapore. I tried to talk her out of it but she was rather persistent on wanting to throw everything away and taking care of them till ripe age..."

In a way or two, it was sweet. But giving up everything she had in the past month? Painful, but sweet.

I still didn't understand why Rachel would want to leave us. Didn't she enjoy the memories that we had made together? I wonder what would Ross think of it. Besides, we had a camera in the recording room which Ryland had managed to snuck into a hidden corner and was able to spy on Ross and Rachel just now. It was no secret that Ross was using his charm to intrigue her.

She was probably somewhere gushing about how embarrassing it was and she would act neutral to whomever mentions it or pretend she didn't care about it...

"Don't tell the boys okay. I can't promise you that Rachel will get mad at us or that Ross will overreact..." Raven said.

We all promised to not spill anything unless it was in serious need to.

Once we were done packing, we saw Rachel being "harassed" By Riker and Ratliff whom were the chosen, more like sabotaged, escorts to the vehicle.

Everyone had taken their bags and we passed Rachel hers. Her face was an obvious shade of red and we couldn't stop teasing her about what happened. Just like my prediction, she said that she didn't care or anything and sped away, causing us all to chuckle.
