WINTER'S POINT OF VIEW

"The sky is as beautiful as you," Louiegie whispered to me as he looked at the sky.

I glared at him. "Shut up, Louiegie," I rolled my eyes.

"But I'm not really lying, Bad Girl," he chuckled. Yeah, he's back on calling me Bad Girl. We're on our private plane right now, traveling to Camarines Norte.

I looked at Ryu and Lauren who's busy laughing with each other. Aerin is also here, sleeping.

While Flinn and Rye are just both quiet. Flinn is slowly moving on from Tita Fiona's death after she knew that the killer of Tita, Richard Salazar, had been caught and is now detained at the jail. But when she knew that her true Dad, Anthony Kingston, was the man who last talked to Richard, she started hating him. I can't blame her, though.

I didn't still forget the day that he had been caught because something doesn't seem right. RS? AK? JS? Remember those words? Well, that's just the words that are bothering me. I told Louiegie about it, and just like me, he also has no idea about it.

"I will miss being Aristotle." I was stunned by what Louiegie said.

A-Aristotle? Suddenly, the day that he invited me to review entered my mind. Oh, sh*t! I totally forgot about that day. I told to myself to watch Louiegie, but argh!

"Hey, are you okay, Bad Girl? I heard you said something like 'argh'. Is there something wrong?"

I looked at him. "Just make sure that you are not Aristotle because starting from now, I will really watch you." I smiled as I shook my head. "Nothing. I'm just bored, so it came out from my mouth."

"You're bored?" he asked and I nodded. "I will ask you questions and you will answer it. Game?" I just sighed and nodded again. I hope, these questions can help me know whether Louiegie's Aristotle or not.

"Ask me now, Louiegie."

He smiled. "What is the English of 'mahal kita'?"

I rolled my eyes. "Of course, I love you."

"I love you too," he grinned and it was too late to realize what I just said. I started hitting his arm and he just chuckled! Argh! "Stop it, Bad Girl. Here's another question. If you stood in front of a mirror and help up 11 roses, you would see 12 of the most beautiful things in the world. Why?"

I rolled my eyes. "I don't know."

"Can you just please think? But anyway, here's the answer," he cleared his throat. "Because you are one of the most beautiful things in the world, you are the twelfth."

I winced in disgust. "That's not questions, Louiegie. That's punchlines."

"Whatever you like to call it. Here's another one. Can I borrow a quarter?"

"You have one, but why?"

"I wanna call my Mom and tell her I just met the girl of my dreams," he smirked.

"I'll just sleep. You talk to yourself and tell your questionsㅡ I meanㅡ your punchlines," I said before I turned my back to him. I'm wrong when I said that his questions can help me. Argh! His questions are annoying and so as he.

I just watched the clouds and didn't sleep. "Bad Girl, we're here," he whispered.

I rolled my eyes before I looked at him. "I know that we're here."

"I thought you slept, so I said it to wake you up."

"But I didn't sleep. Tell me, how can I sleep if I'm beside an asshole?" I raised my brow.

He sighed. "You told me earlier that you will sleep, so I thought that you really slept. There's no need to say that I'm an asshole."

"Hey, you two! Can you please stop fighting? We're already here!" Lauren shouted from outside. I rolled my eyes before I went down, followed by Louiegie.

We went to the hotel that we reserved for us. "Where can I get my partner?" Aerin chuckled.

I turned to her, forehead twitched. "What are you saying, Aerin?"

"You have Louiegie. Lauren has Ryu. Flinn has Rye. How about me? I don't have a partner," she laughed. "I'm like a seventh wheel here."

"Seventh wheel? Why?" Lauren is also now looking at Aerin.

"You're six, so I'm the seventh wheel." She frowned when we didn't laugh just like what she does. "It's a joke."

I winced. "Sorry to say, Aerin, but it's not funny."

After our little conversation, Flinn, Lauren, Aerin, and I went inside the room for the girls while Rye, Ryu, and Louiegie went inside the room for the boys. I suggested to them that we can reserve seven luxury rooms, but they ignored it and reserved only two luxury rooms.

There are four beds there. I occupied the one near the window, Aerin occupied the bed next to mine. Lauren and Flinn occupied the two left. Lauren is beside Aerin and Flinn occupied the bed on the other side.

I fixed my things in the little cabinet there. "Can we eat lunch now?" Aerin asked, combing her hair.

I stood up. "Let's fetch the boys first." After I said it, Lauren and Flinn also stood up. We went outside our room and knocked on the boys' room.

Louiegie opened it. "Why are you all here?"

I rolled my eyes. "Let's eat lunch. Call Ryu and Rye." He followed me and called the other two boys before we went to the restaurant downstairs.

We ordered seafood and fruits and after five minutes, our order came. "What fruit shake do you want, Bad Girl?"

I looked at Louiegie. "Anything." He handed me the watermelon shake and I wanted to take back what I said. "I don't want that, Louiegie."

"Why? This is delicious, Bad Girl."

"If you want me to eat that, then you will see me again at the hospital. And argh! I don't want to go there."

"You're allergic to watermelon?"

"Obviously," I rolled my eyes. He took back the watermelon shake and handed me the blueberry shake instead.

While we're eating, Lauren and Aerin are the only two who's talking. "I want to swim after we eat," Lauren said, pouting.

"We will really swim whether you say it or not, Lauren."

"Whatever, Winter," she rolled her eyes as she made face.

We went back to our rooms after we ate. I went to Flinn. "You're okay, right?" I asked her, smiling.

She turned to me. "Of course, Winter. Don't worry about me, I'm slowly moving on from Mom's death."

"You're quiet, so I thought that you're not okay."

"I'm trying to go back to the old me, someone who's loud and jolly, Winter," she smiled before she looked at Lauren and Aerin who's laughing while Aerin's showing her phone to Lauren. "Hey, girls! What time will we swim?"

They both looked at Flinn unbelievably like some miracle happened. "You two are overreacting. It's just normal for her to speak," I rolled my eyes.

Lauren blinked twice before she let out her genuine smile. "We can go now if you want, Flinn," she answered.

"Uh, yeah, let's go now. It's kinda boring here." We changed our clothes to a one-piece bathing suit. We also put on the tube tops that we bought with khaki shorts.

Lauren called the boys while we waited for them downstairs. "Hi, Bad Girl! You look gorgeous!"

I rolled my eyes. "I'm always gorgeous, you know?"

"As you say, Bad Girl." He pulled my waist again. I calmed myself. I guess I can watch him if he kept on doing this thing. "You're not complaining anymore, huh? Why? You like it now?" he smirked.

I faked a smile. "Well, I'm sure that I can't do anything more about it, so why should I still complain, right?"

"That's my Bad Girl," he smiled. When we arrived at the beach, I stayed on the sand. "Don't you want to swim, Bad Girl?"

I shook my head. "Maybe later, Louiegie. I'm still not in my mood to swim." Actually, I have menstruation right now, so as far as I can, I won't swim in the ocean.

He headed to the ocean where our friends are while I just watched them. I looked at Lauren and Ryu, they are splashing water to each other while laughing.

I turned to Flinn and Rye, they are also sitting on the sand while talking about something before Flinn will giggle.

I looked back at the ocean where Aerin is, she's just swimming back and forth.

When I turned my gaze to Louiegie, I was startled at first because he's just staring at me, smile plastered on his face. I smiled back before I diverted my gaze away from him. I held my chest because my heart just kept on beating fast, faster than the normal beat. I also held my chest when I felt that I blushed. Uh, what is happening to me?

I just got my phone and started surfing. I can't look at Louiegie again after what I felt! Argh! I don't really know what's happening to me. It's just a stare of Louiegie, but this is my reaction?

Geez. I felt humiliated even if he didn't see meㅡ Well, I'm not really sure if he didn't really see me.

"You won't swim, Winter?" I was startled when I heard Flinn's voice. She went to me, leaving Rye behind.

I shook my head. "I don't want to, Flinn."

"Why?" I smiled awkwardly, and it seems that she did understand it. "You have right now?" I glared at her. She doesn't have to ask me that thing anymore. "Uh, on the second thought, don't answer me because the answer is obvious."

I rolled my eyes. "Go back to your boyfriend, Flinn."

"He's not yet my boyfriend, Winter," she pouted. "He's still my suitor."

"Then go to your suitor or whatever he is," I said before I surfed on my phone again. I don't know if she really went to Rye because I don't care.

After a minute, someone whispered to me. I turned to whoever whispered and I want to take back what I did. Why? Because my lips just met another lip!

I immediately stay away from that person. "What the hell is that, Louiegie?!" Yup, it was Louiegie's lips that kissed mine. And that's for the second time already!

"What? It's not my fault, Bad Girl. You turned your head, so our lips kissed," he chuckled. I looked below and found a small stone. I got it and threw it to him. "Ouch! What was that for, Bad Girl?"

I rolled my eyes. "That's for kissing me for the second time! Argh! You're so annoying!" I exclaimed as I stood up and got another stone again.

I am about to throw it to him when he stopped me by going at my back. "Woah, not again, Bad Girl. I won't let you hurt me again," he said before he hugged me.

I stiffened. "W-What are you doing, L-Louiegie?" Uh, why am I stuttering?

"Obviously, hugging you, Bad Girl."

I rolled my eyes. "I'm not joking, Louiegie."

I heard him chuckled. "I'm also not joking, Bad Girl. But please stay still. I want to hug you more. And to also..."

"And to also what?" I asked forehead twitched.

"And to also cover the stain on your shorts." I felt my cheeks reddened because of what he said. "Let's go back to your room. You still have to change."

I started walking, he still hugging me. When we entered the elevator, the crew there shrieked. "Ayiee! Nakakakilig naman kayo, Ma'am, Sir!"

I rolled my eyes. "Do you want to work for this hotel again?"

"Yes naman po, Ma'am."

"Then you better shut your mouth because I can make you unemployed any minute from now."

She swallowed hard before she shut up. "You're so sassy, Bad Girl."

"Shut up, will you?" I raised my brow as if he can see me.

"I can see you because of the mirror inside this elevator, Bad Girl," he said as if he can read my mind.

I rolled my eyes. "I thought you want to be an IT, but now, you're acting like you want to be a psychologist, huh?" The elevator opened before he can answer me. We went in front of our room. He was about to enter when I stopped him. "You can go back to them now, Louiegie."

"Why are you acting so bratty today, huh?" I glared at him. "Uh, yeah, you're always bratty, so why would I even question you, right? And of course, you're like that because you have," he chuckled.

I closed the door with my all force. I just hope that it hit him. Argh! He's so annoying! I went to the restroom to change. Geez. I really feel humiliated right now.
