Host POV
I sit up towards my next interview way more excited than before. The gossip she promised me will be more than enough for the lack of gossip of the other two.
-Well, miss Rios, I suppose you're happy with your big win on the surfing competition.
NR-Of course I am and you should be too. Is not everyday you meet with the best female surfer. You gotta enjoy it and I will set an unachievable record. I will see wich one to break first.
-Do you have a boyfriend?
NR-Ugh, no, I'm a free soul. I'm not going to be tied down to a man and serve him well gaining unfaithfulness in return. There are exceptions but usually, men are just dumb and annoying.
I keep my smile at her insults towards us but I still ask.
-I hope you got some juicy gossip for us, you know our fans love drama.
NR-I have some gossip but is not about me but another person.
-Pray tell, what do you have?
NR-The video is censored but you can clearly see who it is at the beginning. Is the best I could show. Video and audio.
-Let's play the video then.
The video plays and I look at their expressions as it runs. Natasha is smiling satisfied, Ari is shocked and ashamed. Bella, the protagonist of this erotic video is ashamed and clearly very angry.
As the video ends I see how the interaction between them goes.
NR-It seems our second place is bad at surfing and at life, such low morals, what a shameless woman.
Ari-Bella, are you alright?
Bella shakes him away and I see how the ladies stare at each other for a moment.
NR-Are you not ashamed of being unfaithful to your boyfriend or the fact that this kind of obscenities are seen by the public.
Be-It seems you misunderstand several things. First, I'm enjoying myself with my boyfriend and second, I did not record myself or bring that video to be seen by others. How did you got your hands on such things?
NR-I can do anything and I know everything.
Be-You don't know how to stop gossiping and you don't know how to live your life and not spy on others.
NR-You got no shame. Doing such things outdoors. You and him are truly for each other. Sharing those ugly tastes.
-At least I'm happy and satisfied as well as he is. Unlike you, whose life is so simple and dry that she has to surf to feel excited and wet.
At that direct insult Natasha stands to tower over her but Bella also stands and confronts her head on.
NR-My drive is good and you should stop speaking about my life.
Be-Take your own advice and stay out of mine.
NR-You have no life to speak about. You are dull, plain, ugly and uninteresting to anybody.
At that point Bella is at the extreme and she laughs deeply.
NR-What are you laughing about?
Be-I finally understand your hate for me.
NR-What can your wrong judgment tell you this time?
Be-You are not looking for what I have or don't have. Your hate for me is based on what I naturally have and you don't have.
At that point Natasha slaps Bella hard and before anyone can intervene she grabs her by the hair and swings her savagely around. We run to commercials this time around and when we come back Ari is holding a feisty Natasha back while Bella sits calmly but clearly angry about this.

Ethan POV - Age - 22
I wait on the phone for a short while only as she answers a bit angrily.
Be-What you want now?
-Easy now. You won the fight in the end.
Be-How do you know?
-Everbody saw everything until she slapped you. They cut it while she grab your hair so, how are you?
Be-That woman is so exasperating. But I'm better.
-Of course you are. Are you hurt anywhere?
Be-Not really. The slap is gone already and my hair is a mess. But, you know what?
-What.
Be-I want to be with you.
-So do I. I want to do everything to you....
Be-Yeah but............
-But?
Be-Your brother wants to talk with you.
-Put him through then.
She asks and then he speaks over.
Ari-Do you have any idea about the video?
-Easy, only us three know is me in the video.
Ari-I will find the one that recorded the video and bring him to you both. He will not get away.
-You got the means to find him and so does she. Let me talk to her.
He growls before I hear her sweet voice again.
Be-We will find him.
-Take care baby. I'll see you soon.
Be-I will stay here until things calmed down just a bit.
-Alright. I'll still see you soon. Don't worry about it.
Be-Ok.
She hangs up and as she does I scroll through my room to pack some things and I book a flight for tonight to meet her at Australia. I can't be late but still, I just take a taxi there.

Ari POV  - Age - 20
I hole myself up with Bella on her room to keep her company. Ever since we got here she hasn't stopped crying. I sigh and I leave a tray with a warm milk and a small simple cake.
-You have to eat something. Come on.
She looks at the snacks sobbing before she turns to me. Takes her a bit but she calms down enough.
Be-Thank you. I'll try.
-The milk is hot so, be careful.
She drinks a bit before taking another bigger sip.
Be-What did you put on it? So good.
-A hint of cinnamon. The food is just vanilla. Simple and plain.
Be-Cinnamon and vanilla?
-Is not common but not bad. Is my favorite sweet.
Be-I like hot chocolate with mini marshmallow, cinnamon, cream and milk. The food is a bowl of juicy fruits mixed together.
-What about your second choice.
Be-A milkshake with oreo cookies.
-I like the caribbean pina colada with mangoes, bananas, apples or all together.
Be-My third choice is an oreo milkshake with vanilla creme cookies.
-My third choice can be whatever is available.
Be-I'm better, I'm going to sleep now.
-I'm staying here just in case you need anything.
She nods and just like that she disappears to her bedroom and I step by the balcony door with my own cup of milk. I sigh at how persistent the reporters are, all still crowding the hotel entrance. They are less noisy but still there. This is annoying, I hope they are here for the other girl, she created the gossip after all but that can't be good, she might spread more lies to rid herself from the bad publicity. I'm going to sleep a little bit.
Ethan POV - Age - 22
I arrive to the hotel with her favorite snacks. Is slightly after midnight so I get in to her floor easier as the night shift is less worried and more relaxed. I get up and the cleaning lady let's me in her room after a bit of compliments and begging.
I leave the stuff on the floor before I walk around the rooms seeing everything. I'm annoyed, relieved and not surprised to see my brother sleeping on the couch. He's so very tall now, I think he's taller than me already.
After a bit I grab the food and I go towards the only room at the apartment. I find that she's sleeping completely covered with her blankets to the top. I lock the door behind me before I sit at her feet. She only nudges to the other side and I just laugh and I get in the bed with her, cuddling her body to me so I can sleep with her.

The next morning she wakes me up.
Be-Ethan. How come you're here.
Is not a question, is a statement phrased as a question. I rub my face before I hold hers.
-I took the first flight here after the TV show problem. I just wanted to be with you.
Be-You really are my fool.
She gives me a soft kiss before I ask her.
-Would you marry me?
Be-Of course but, why now?
-It feels right. I don't know why but it feels right. Besides, we want so, why wait.
Be-Let's start getting everything ready then.
-Starting with your ring. You choose it and I'll pay it.
I love this woman entirely and completely. This is my woman and I'm going to keep her company for the rest of our life.
Alexis POV  - Age - 53
I arrive at the hospital to see my second daughter and her newborn babies. It wasn't that long ago that my son has his babies so I'm excited to have so many kids in the house at a given time. Until now it was only Dylan's kids and now is not just him but my daughter too. I wait patiently until I see how Michael comes out of the room. I'm about to ask him when he pulls me into a hug.
-Are you alright?
Mi-Yes. Just a bit overwhelmed with happiness.
He gets away with a smile before we share another hug.
Mi-Come on. I'll show you the babies.
-Babies.
I'm confused but not too surprised with the term. 6 multiple pregnancies for me and 2 for Dylan and now her first pregnancy is multiple too. I didn't know that detail. When I arrive to see them I am glad to see she got twins.
Mi-The girl is Taylor, the eldest and the boy is Tyler.
-I....................
I can only shrug at him and just enjoy the moment silently.

Phoebe POV  - Age - 23
I walk restlessly through my room just looking at random stuff as I go. I can't pinpoint what I want. I always wanted to be famous but now I don't feel the same way about it. I want to design clothes and be in the fashion media but I don't know why am I doubting. I stand, sit, pace, tap my foot until finally my sister stops me.
Am-Could you stay still or play outside, you're driving me crazy.
-Sorry. I just, I don't know what's wrong with me.
Ke-If you don't know then we know less.
Am-Kelly.
Ke-What? She's been acting strange since Lily's wedding.
Am-Now that is true although, you were very happy and excited when you were helping her with the wedding. Why are you down now?
-I don't know. I feel lost with my life.
Am-You got time still to think about.
Ke-And we will help you shorten that time with group brain. Today, right now we are going to the pool. To relax and enjoy ourselves as sisters.
Am-All of us then.
With that we leave to the pool about to meet all of our other sisters together.
