Chapter 17

~Zayne Beckett~

For the last night in Mexico, I sat on the bed in my hotel room, recalling all of what had happened. Aurora and I had gained a star piece by winning a surprise auction, Meghan was overly excited about me winning her a sombrero shark, and Carter has been suspicious of me for being around Aurora a lot.

Mexico was quite an adventure, but it had come to an end.

Well, not yet.

I snuck out of my hotel room with a jacket and towel, careful to not wake Carter. Cautiously closing the door, I had a random thought pop into my head.

I wandered the halls of the hotel, searching for something. Or rather, someone. Pretty soon, I found her pink hair moving slowly in the light wind. Her hand gently passed along the small carvings on the wall as if she admired them.

"Shouldn't you be sleeping?" I asked, walking up to her.

"Maybe," she muttered through a small smile. "Shouldn't you?"

"No, I'm the adventurous type," I grinned, walking along with her.
