Delaney and Shelby took me to get pampered while the guys stayed at the house. We invited Megan and Christine to go with us, but they said they had to get back to their hotel, promising to meet us tonight. Raven told me to get ready, because he had lined up something fun for us to do.

We started the afternoon by getting a full body massage, compliments of Shelby. Or Josh’s parents, if I knew her, which I did. I kind of felt guilty, but Delaney said for me not to worry. Apparently, she was always blowing either Josh’s money, or his parents’. It didn’t seem right, but I decided that I might as well enjoy myself. After the massage, we stopped and got something to eat before heading to the nail salon.

We got our toes and fingers done in bright, neon colors. Shelby insisted we get gel nails so it would last longer. The sand was torture on regular nail polish. I honestly didn’t know the difference, so I just got what they did. We stopped at a small boutique that Shelby claimed had the cutest clothes before heading back to the house. I thought the clothes looked a little outdated, like something my mom wore when she was in middle school, but I let them pick me out something and hoped Raven wouldn’t be disappointed.

We pulled into the garage and went inside the house. Raven and the rest of the guys were sitting on the couch, watching a movie. “You girls back already?” Josh asked, looking up briefly. “Did you buy the whole store?”

“No, we didn’t. Just got a few things.” Shelby raised the bags in her hands and trotted off to her bedroom.

“Did you have a good time?” Raven reached up and pulled me onto his lap. My legs shot up in the air and everything turned upside down.

“Raven,” I giggled as I toppled onto him. “Yes. I got my nails and toes done and had an awesome massage.” I showed him fingers and toes.

“You look pretty.” He sniffed me. “And smell great, too.”

“I look pretty?” I ran a hand through my frizzy hair. The humid temperatures of the island were not kind. “I’m sure I look like a poodle after that massage therapist rubbed my head and scalp.”

He swept my hair from face. “You’re pretty no matter what. But go get ready.” He popped me on the butt with his hand and I squealed. “We’ve got everything planned. We’re going out to eat and then headed to a club to dance the night away.”

I glanced over at Luke. “You okay with all of this?”

“Yeah. I told you, whatever you want to do.”

I pivoted, sliding off Raven’s lap. “It’s your birthday, too. I just want to make sure you feel included.”

“I’m good.” He waved me off.

“You look good.” Luke eyed Delaney from head to toe.

Delaney plopped in his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. “I do?”

“Damn,” she waved the space in front of Luke’s mouth, “someone’s been drinking.
