Hollywood Zenith

" Good morning, sunshine," Adele whispered into his ears. Samuel hazily opened his eyes to see her looking at him lovingly. They really had a wild night; they were at it till morning.

" Good morning." He tightened his hug. He peered into her pale green eyes briefly while their naked bodies were nestled together.

" It's noon already; I am surprised no one found us."

" Well, I forgot to tell you that all rooms are soundproof, so you have nothing to worry about."

" I am not talking about that idiot. I mean, we disappeared last night; they must be worried, no?" Adele playfully hit him in the chest.

" I am more impressed that you woke up before me."

" I didn't plan to, but something was poking my belly; I had to 'inspect' it." Adele chuckled while grabbing the thing with the back of her knee.

" It's not my fault that I was crushed by the softness of epic proportions! It has a mind of its own; maybe it is not satisfied yet." Samuel pulled her closer, their lips almost touching. When he was leaning closer, she pulled back with a smile.

" Not now; we have bigger problems on our hands. You shouldn't be carried away again!" It was a bit of a wrestling match, which made Samuel even more aroused. She really was playing with him; her large mounds were resting on his chest while she was sneakily nudging against the sleeping giant.

" What's the harm? I am only asking for a kiss!"

She gave him a quick peck and rolled off of him in response.

" Hehe, maybe later." She said while escaping toward the bathroom naked, her hips swayed, which was a spectacle to witness. It was good to see that she was only limping slightly, unlike the first time when she needed assistance to even stand up.

" I saw that lecherous smile! You do realize that the only reason you are getting this is that you ripped out all of my clothing!"

" You didn't like it?"

" I am not saying that! I mean, It's not like I would bring a spare set of clothes for a party!" Adele shouted from the washroom.

" I will arrange some clothes. You should get cleaned up." He called up someone and asked them for some spare clothes.

When he told them he was in need of women's clothing, they were confused before realizing that he was not alone in the room. The maids left blushing, wondering what he was up to last night. For the next few days, they would often giggle, discussing it whenever they saw him.

After they both cleaned up, Samuel accompanied her to the entrance; he had arranged for Steve to drop her off. He could have done it himself without the girls blocking the entrance. Adele blushingly greeted them before running away and leaving Samuel to fend for himself.

| сom " You are glowing. Did you enjoy it that much?" Liliana asked.

" I don't know what you are talking about." He feigns ignorance.

" Don't try to play dumb! Sooner or later, we will know about it!" Paige exclaimed.

" Come on, he can do whatever he wants. Aren't you being a bitch about it?" Kiko surprisingly took Samuel's side. She was never in the picture, but having a friendly face was nice for a change for Samuel.

" Why do you care, little princess? Why are you even here?" Paige retorted. She didn't like her acting high and mighty, she may be a princess, but nobody acted like that in front of Paige.

" Because I am his friend and have known him longer than you. If not for my stupid family..." She lowered her voice in the last part; others' could barely hear it.

" I don't care. The reason why we were looking for you is that I am going back to States today." Maia, who was silent for the entirety of the conversation, dropped the news.

" Why? Is it urgent?" Samuel asked.

" I am also going along with Liliana and Rosaline," Paige said from the side.

" I know it's sudden, but It's already been a few days; Rosaline's parents are worried sick. It looks like she sent few photos, which made them frantic." Liliana shrugged.

" I don't understand."

" She meant to say they are coming with me. I know you made them an offer, but it was too weak. Being in the fashion industry, don't you think I am best suited to oversee their new business?" Paige said.

" But what's the hurry? I haven't even taken them out for the city tour."

" What do they need to think about their livelihood, not to go on some extravagant tour, or are you planning to trap them in this golden cage?" Maia commented.

" It is not my intention."

" We also know how busy your schedule will be since the release is so close. Emma told us about it."

" That is why Hannah and I are also going back to Oxford. I hope you will not disappoint when we give you another invitation." Kiko said.

Samuel had nothing to say; if they decided among themselves, who was he to deny them? They were also right about him being busy; being in the States for that long was like a vacation, and now that he was back, he had to attend to several businesses.

" Alright. I understand. Let's head inside; I am famished."

" No wonder."

" What?"

" If you cared to look in the mirror, you wouldn't have wondered why I said it."

" I don't know what you are getting at?"

Samuel later found out that his whole neck was filled with love bites; he had forgotten to use his regenerative title out of habit, which would raise some grave suspicion. Suffice it to say he was wearing a turtleneck for the rest of the day.

" I heard. Just to let you know, I will be staying for a while." Darren pulled him aside to talk with Samuel.

" Why? Don't you college or something?" Samuel asked.

" Don't forget you owe me one. I want to go with you on your Europe tour after the scheduled interview here!" He scoffed, believing he had the upper hand.

" I don't recall ever having this conversation."

" I already asked Emma and Rupert if they don't mind. Besides, you must come with me somewhere; I have already booked our tickets."

" What the hell?"

" You really said some mean things yesterday. Don't you think you ought to make it up to me?" Darren was a little dramatic about it.

" Fine! But you will refrain from mentioning it ever again. We both know what I said was the truth! Just to make it clear!"

" You are doing it again! I am sure Aunt Laura would have a different opinion about it."

" Ok, Ok, it's a deal." Samuel knew Darren had a talent for exaggerating things; his mother also adored him, which would make things hard for him.

That night, he dropped off everyone at the airport. Surprisingly, Grey also accompanied them. He had gotten attached to Rosaline. They didn't talk about yesterday's mess which was put on hold for now. Samuel knew it had much to do with their sudden departure, but he couldn't do anything for now.

He wanted to be upfront about it because he didn't want to deceive them. But he also knew that his path was set; it was not his decision to police their choices, so he decided to wait.
