Ch. 9

At 10 o'clock sharp everyone is in the living room. The women, the camera team and him. Jack. There are only six left this week. It is becoming increasingly difficult to decide who has to go and who can stay. But he still has a week and six dates to deal with.

" Tomorrow together. Since we're only six left, each of you will get a single date with me again! “, Emilia squeaks a bit. “I would like to kidnap Aria today. Tomorrow you, Emilia. ”Another exaggerated squeak. Inwardly he rolls his eyes. Either Emilia is really like that or she has an undiscovered side that she just doesn't want to show anyone. If that were the case, please let him find the second face quickly.

His eyes are looking for Mia. Her green eyes are half closed, her mouth slightly open and she has her head in her hands.

" Mia?", She sits straight straight away. The black hair flies on the back. Eyes kept open. "I've reserved you for Wednesday.", She smiles and nods. When the others turn away again, she sticks out her tongue and closes her eyes. “I want to do something with Lola on Thursday. Sophia, see you on Friday. And Summer you will spend the day of the decision with me. ", She nods happily. Now that that has been clarified: "Aria are you finished?" Let's go! ”, Stressed and relaxed, she swings her arms beside her.

Mia spends the day waking up. Every muscle aches and her nose is blocked. Surely she won't get sick? For the first time in two years she is on vacation and Mia falls ill. With the wonderful weather. Impossible! She swallows a few pills for the pain and hides under blankets. These form her cloak when she walks through the house. "Help. Mia! What are you doing there? “, Summer stands in front of her. The curly hair is loose and the body is wrapped in a triangle bikini. “Are you getting sick?” A horrified expression sticks to her face. “Maybe I'm contagious!” Mia poisoned. Okay, that was mean and unfair. Summer is really fine and nice, but she just can't get the thing with Jack in the bar ... on her mind. He made out with HER.

Frustrated, she goes to her room. Without knocking, which she should have done, because she shares the room with Sophia. "I didn't mean to disturb.", Sophia's face speaks volumes. Panic, fear and despair are there. Finn, on the other hand, makes a very casual impression. He grins as usual and still holds Sophia's hand, which tries to pull it away from him. With little success. Mia wants to withdraw again because Finn speaks to her. “You don't look good at all! You'd better lie down in your bed. ”“ I don't think Sophia would agree with that ... ”“ Yes, yes! Come in AND close the door behind you. "

" So, you are ...?", Mia has sat down on her bed. "A couple, in love, infatuated and inseparable!", Finn grins from one ear to the other. Then he bends over to Sophia and kisses her. First she defends herself, but quickly gives up and pulls him closer.

" Cough, cough!", Embarrassed her friend pulls back. Mia doesn't even know her like that. “How long has it been going on? We have only been here a week! ”“ It felt like a month passed. We were on the same wavelength from the start, but not until Thursday ... until Thursday did he kiss me. Not, Finn? ”, This one turns red. How lovely that makes him. "Congratulations to both of you." A silence goes around. Everyone knows what question is next. Sophia plays with her brown hair. Finn plays with her fingers. "When are you going to tell Jack?" They both raise their heads. “What if Jack is into Sophia? How will he react when his best friend has got his favorite? “, Finn forgives the face. Sophia next to him makes a less worried expression. “I'm not his favorite. Jack and I get along well, but I think we're more like friends. On the first date, he only had eyes for Mia. ”This time it is her turn to blush. "I do not believe that. Whoever has you next to them cannot want anything else. Sorry Mia, I didn't mean that. “, Finn looks contrite. "No problem! I also think that Jack's favorite is not Sophia. It's summer. He's already made out with her. That evening in the bar. “, Their friends exchange a look. Then they turn to her, grinning. "What? That's how it is. Why should you make out with someone you don't like ?! ”, Mia lets out a frustrated sigh and wants to lie down. "I can not believe it. I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT! You are jealous! Heaven. "" It wasn't ... Jack was up to the top. YOU brought him the chamomile tea and he clung to you like a monkey to his favorite toy. The whole damn morning. ”She has to smile at the memory. "Stop. Break. I thought you were visiting the baby. You don't have Finn ... ", confused she looks at her lover. "Yes, well ... yes, I said that to cover up the situation. What would the others have thought? And what would you have done with Mia? ”“ Oh my god. Mia you are something of his favorite 100 pro! "

“ Leave me alone. I'm going to sleep. ", She grumbles. Sophia giggles like a teenager. "Heavens, it's like a soap."

Monday is infinitely long. He planned to go shopping to get to know Aria better. What better way to tell a man what a woman thinks than when he goes shopping with her? Well, Aria doesn't go into any business. Don't look around and don't buy anything. She is nice, open and sometimes even naughty. However, as soon as he wants to know something about her life, she closes.

It doesn't work. Jack can't get through the wall. He needs more time.
