The fresh breeze of Switzerland greets us. We are only a few days away from Christmas, yet the town in this country has started decorating the streets, houses and everything green and red! The spectacular scenery with such vibrant decorations is nothing but pleasing to our eyes.
"Oh my god. I'm so happy I could get away from exam stress! Look at this!" Alex jumps out of the car that brings us to our hotel. In this beautiful country, we decided to abode in a magnificent resort. The normal noblemen must wait for three months to get accommodation here. But since we are The Frostbites, we could make the cut with ease!
"We've each got a room for ourselves, the siblings that is. Aria, are you fine with staying with our sister?" Nick asks, checking the rooms. Aria, on the other hand, is distracted by her phone. She lifts it, showing how expensive and hard it is to get a room in this hotel!
"We are the Frostbites, dear. We can afford anything." I respond, patting her shoulder as I chuckle. Dane has a cocky expression as Winter slaps his tummy gently.
"Don't worry, you don't have to pay for anything. Unfortunately, we will have to depend on our old man for expenditure. His financial advisor sides with us, so it's no problem minting money out of our father for these." Alex says with despise laced in his voice. My smile fades. We haven't quite forgotten nor forgiven him for what he's done.
"That's...wonderful. I'll try not to be a burden!" Aria chirps as we all sigh.
"What a modest little lady," Crystal says from behind me. She smiles. Although it doesn't reach her eyes. She is quickly taken away by Alex as he kisses her cheek out of affection.
Oh lord...I feel so many emotions. Jealousy, happiness, anger...all of them.
"Right! So we're sharing a room like we are a couple, is it?" I jump my eyebrows at Aria, being playful as she pushes me off!
"Stop that! It's creepy! I'm not into women, ya know?" Aria jumps away from me, but I pull her under my arm again!
"Baby girl. You never know until you try-"
"Cut it out, Amy!" Aria shouts gently and runs away! I chase her down the hall playfully. We didn't care if we were disturbing other guests!
"Ha. The bed is too big for one. Thank god we are sharing!" Aria says and jumps onto me on the bed of our hotel room. I hug her, in a friendly manner!
"You'll have the bed all to yourself tonight though." At my words, Aria props up and tilts her head to the side. Her straight black hair shifts with her movements, so adorable!
"Why is that? This is your room-"
"I plan on spending it with my brother Nick." I say, the word 'brother' feeling bitter on my tongue. I fake smile and push her off of me.
"Oh, is that so? Then we should spend some time before that! How does midnight sound?" Aria asks, regarding us hanging out. I nod my head quickly.
"I'm sure he will still be studying." I pass a comment on Nick.
"Even during a vacay!?" Aria asks, hopefully admiring Nick as I nod. Additionally, I roll my eyes as well.
"Yeah, he's annoying like that. I bet he'll ask me to be his stud' for the night. Ugh." I say, playfully mocking Nick. Well, since it's us both straying away from the plan of resting today - the others have agreed on this because we have just landed and possibly have jetlag - Aria and I don't feel even a shred of exhaustion.
We take showers by turn, freshening up as quickly as possible. Agreeing to throw on cute matching outfits of pink and lilac, we top it off with a white muffler.
"We look too cute!" Aria exclaims, taking a picture in the huge mirror. I can't help but agree! We then head out of our room, and accidentally bump into Dane! He takes us both head-on over his chest. It is as if we head-butt each of his man-boobs!
"Sorry!" Aria exclaims while I put out my act as his sibling,
"What where you're going, hunk! And how the hell are you without a sweater? It's freezing!" I call him out. He raises an eyebrow - I know exactly what that means. He throws the sweater over his shoulder as it hangs off of his finger.
"You're heading out already? You look like girlfriends. Matching outfits and all." Dane scans us both, and I giggle.
"Yes! Aren't we cute?" I exclaim, posing for him. Suddenly, his huge hand covers my face as he pushes me to the side!
"Out of my way, garden gnome."
How dare he!?
Aria sniffles a laugh behind her gloves. How embarrassing! I try to kick his ass but he jumps out of my line of action right at the moment!
"Jerk!" I yell behind him, hearing his demonic laughter as it fades. Paying him no heed, I walk hand-in-hand with Aria.
"I wish Crystal could have joined us. Maybe Winter too! It'll be our girls' day out then!" Aria suggests, reminiscing for them. I pout my lips, remembering how both of them have rejected my offer to accompany me.
"There's always another day!" I say, reminding Aria that we will be here for the next three days. We head onto the main street which connects us to the local market. I admire everything around me, clutching onto the wad of cash in my pocket!
"Everything is so beautiful around here. I'm sure you'll be able to buy the whole street full of commodities, isn't it?" Aria says suddenly, her voice soft and gentle.
"I'm sure I can. I'm a Frostbite." I throw out my punchline, Aria chuckles delightfully.
"Now, let's not make it obvious that we're rich. Even though you can afford the same as me. Saving money is also a virtue of the rich." I say and wink at Aria. Just then, we bump into someone tall and well-built.
Why do we keep bumping into people today!? I'm busy rubbing my nose which got squished with impact when I hear Aria,
"Aren't you..."
