the party was in full swing people dancing and laughing, conversing amongst themselves, while the three of us sat in the far back in our own little world enjoying one another's company, Rosie was still somewhere in this hotel looking for Tanner, Lucas was invading the kitchen, or mingling, I lost track after the girls dragged me away for some much needed catch-up, and Mr Petrova had disappeared, which I wasn't complaining, that just gave us more time to talk

"the hotel is beautiful Valery, Tanner should give you a raise" Lily smiled warmly as her eyes wandered around the hotel as if taking in every detail, I couldnt help but feel pride, allowing a smile to appear on my face, Im glad my hardwork paid off

"If he doesnt I'm sure Lucas would be happy to give you a different type of raise" Jade adds with mischief clear in her eyes, the corner of her lips lifting upwards

"Excuse me" I practically stuttered out, my eyes darting down to my wine glass

"Oh don't play innocent, we all saw that little scene between the two of you" Jade replied playfully

"what scene" I croaked out trying to cover up my embarrassment

"oh I don't know maybe the scene where you both show up late laughing your asses off as your enter the hall dripping wet" Jade mused

"Is there something you would like to tell us dear?" Lily pried, her eyes darting to me curiously, with a grin almost identical to Jade, I felt like was I was being interrogated, which shouldnt have come to a surprise to me, I did keep them in the dark during my time here, mainly because I was in my blissful bubble, but part of me was excited to tell them, I finally get to gush about my relationship, then again I shouldn't I might jinx it

"You look like your having a battle with your self consciousness red" Rosie's soft spoken voice broke me out of my trance

"sorry I was overthinking, I dont why I keep doing that"

"maybe it's because of a certain someone" Lily replied with a sing song voice "please tell us, the anticipation is killing us"

"we're dating"

"I knew it"

"No duh"

"Yay"

the three of them simultaneously cheered, before giving me their congratulations, which I was happy for, we then started conversing about other things, laughing and drinking, my eyes drifted to see a pouting Rosie, who was fiddling with her glass, she wasn't usually this quite, she would always be attentive during conversations, but now she seemed lost
