Alena's POV:

Saturday came around quickly and with my first official week of school over and having dinner at Dom's place tonight I'm feeling really good.

On Thursday I met with some of the other American students the teachers called it an opportunity to meet each other and have time out to ourselves to discuss how we're finding the experience so far. But all I found was that I'm even more grateful I was given Bex as my roommate. Sure some of the other students were okay, but most of them were the type of people to look down their noses at you.

"How do I look?" Bex questions as she steps out of the bathroom

She's dressed in a black long-sleeved black dress, it's cut down in a V at the front and has two small ruffles at the bottom ending just before her knee, it's also pulled in at her waist tied in a messy bow. Her long blonde hair is out and curled and her make-up is flawless as always

"Bex you look stunning." I smile and put down my mascara as I take her in for a moment

"Thank you" she takes a deep breath "I'm actually feeling really nervous" she Mumbles as she makes her way over and sits down on the bed

"Why?" I question as I pull my hair into a side ponytail and tie it up

"I don't know this is like an official date, I mean sure we've seen each other every day for over a week but this is so official and I've never really done official."

"Do you want it to be official?" I question as I make my way over and sit down next to her on the bed

"Yes, I think that's why I'm scared, I've only known him a week"

"He clearly likes you as well or he wouldn't be taking you out on a date, so just go with it and see what happens." I smile

"Argh this wasn't supposed to happen, I wasn't mean to catch feels for the first Italian man to come along."

I giggle softly and shake my head "Oh Bex, we all feel so sorry for you, you have a hot Italian man who is lovely, funny, dresses well and drives a nice car, and above all adores you wanting to take you on an official date" I tease

"Wait a minute," Bex says looking me up and down "Are you going somewhere?"

"Yes" I stand up and make my way back to the mirror fixing my minimal make-up in the mirror "I'm having dinner with Dom at his place tonight."

"Wait what?" She gasps as she stands up "Why are you not telling me until now?"

"Because you had your own outfit to plan and make-up to worry about without worrying about me. Besides I'm meeting his sister for the first time and I don't want to overdo it."

"You're meeting his family?" she says wide-eyed

"Well his sister yes, Franco will be there as well but I already know him."

"So you'll be hanging out with Franco and Dom at the same time."

"Yes" I nod once

"Oooof both Ricci boys under the one roof, ever had a 3 some?" she winks

"Okay wow." I giggle loudly "You're insane"

"I'm just saying, they're both extremely good looking."

"They are and I really like Franco but I just don't see him that way."

"Oh but you do Dom?"

"I do Dom what?" I knit my brows together in confusion
