Is this destiny?

Guys reached Black Rose only few minutes after girls. But they had to line up to get in. It would easily take them one maybe even two hours to get through the line. The guys didn't like that the girls will be so long without their protection inside, but they didn't have a choice other than wait patiently.

About ten minutes after they lined up, Felix spotted a young lady employee who was walking next to the line of people making sure everything is in order. Felix cleared his throat to get her attention and locked his eyes with hers while enchanting smile revealed his dimples, and she was smitten. She let them in through the back entrance and slipped her phone number in Felix's pocket.

Gustav watched with an unreadable expression as Aiden, Jeff and Steve appreciated Felix's sacrifice while Felix repeated several times not to mention to Sophia that he used power of his charm on another woman.

"Don't forget to dump that number…", Jeff moved closer to Felix and mumbled as soon as young lady was out of the earshot.

Felix was grateful for the reminder and threw the crumpled paper in nearby trash can.

…

Inside Black Rose, down at the bar…

Gustav finished his first drink and ordered second one when two girls picked him up. He disappeared in the crowd with them. Finally! He was happy that this looks like a party.

Jeff, Aiden, Felix and Steve made sure that any girl who gets some ideas is discouraged before even thinks of making a move at them. If they get caught, it's one thing. If they get caught with girls around them, it's a totally different thing.

They were taking glances at the VIP room above while slowly working on their drinks.

Aiden knew in which VIP room girls are, so he took the role of a guide. However, unless girls were close to the glass rail, they were not able to see them. They could tell that someone is inside, but that was as far as it gets. And they didn't dare to stare too much in case girls step out next to the rail; that brings risk of being noticed.

If they are discovered, they are doomed.

…

Up in the VIP room…

Encouraged by Bridgette's request to locate Steve, Sarah got her phone and launched app which tracks GPS in their rings. She knows that Felix, Aiden and Jeff are together, and Steve will be with them.

Sarah grimaced while looking at her phone. JoAnna and Sophia noticed Sarah's expression, but they didn't understand what is causing it.

"What? Where are they?" Bridgette could see that something is off and panicked.

Sarah stared at her phone, obviously confused before mumbling: "Here…?"

Sophia and JoAnna got their phones as well and confirmed that they also see the same thing.

They all looked toward the rail which separates them from the crowd downstairs.

"Did they follow us?", Sophia frowned. She didn't like the idea of being followed, but she liked to know that Felix is nearby. She was missing him.

"They knew we are coming here after dinner. And they are aware of our VIP room.", Sarah added. Aiden knows about this room they are using, he told others, for sure.

"They are probably watching us from downstairs." JoAnna was walking toward the rail with intention to spot her handsome fiancé.

Sarah and Bridgette joined JoAnna, and Sophia was lazy to get off the sofa.

JoAnna spotted them first and laughed. "Look at them at the bar! Pretending they are invisible!"

Sophia puffed her cheeks. "Any girls around them?", there was a dose of threat in her voice.

"Nope, they are still pure!", JoAnna was enjoying that there are no other girls around them and that they actually followed them.

Bridgette left the VIP room without a word. Sarah, JoAnna and Sophia assumed that she went to the restroom.

Hill sisters exchanged glances and concluded that they are all happy that guys are here.

Sophia got an idea: "How about we send them drinks?"

JoAnna and Sarah laughed and gave Sophia a thumbs up.

…

Down at the bar…

Bartender placed four beers in front of them. "Compliments from the ladies…", he told them.

"We are not taking them." Jeff immediately refused pushing his beer away.

Bartender smiled and pushed beer back into original place toward Jeff. "Ladies said you will not reject them."

While Jeff was talking to the bartender, Steve felt someone tug back of his shirt. He turned to see who it is, and his face lit up when he saw Bridgette smiling at him. Two of them moved away and disappeared into the crowd while holding each other.

Aiden watched the exchange between Jeff and the bartender, and suddenly felt uneasy. He squinted at the bartender. "What ladies?"

"From VIP room." Bartender gestured up and moved on to serve other customers.

Jeff, Aiden and Felix exchanged glances and slowly looked up toward the VIP room where girls are.

And sure enough, Sophia and JoAnna were leaning against the railing and waving at them.

Jeff, Aiden and Felix were too stressed to notice that Steve is not with them anymore.

"Do you think we are in trouble?", Jeff asked and swallowed hard.

Felix shook his head maybe because he didn't know the answer or maybe because his head was buzzing. "We are exposed. We should go up there and face the consequences."

Aiden was confused. 'Where is Sarah?' He can't imagine that she would miss the chance to stand up there next to her sisters and victoriously wave in a 'you are busted' manner. He nervously glanced around, but it was too crowded to see anyone who is not right next to him.

Guys took their drinks and started making their way toward the stairs which allow access up to the VIP rooms.

Aiden felt someone holding his arm, and a sweet voice came from the back: "Hi handsome… I'm watching you for a while and wondering if I can have a dance."

Aiden smiled seeing that Sarah is not upset. He kept his drink on a random table nearby and went with Sarah through the crowd toward the dance area.

That left Felix and Jeff to go upstairs and face Sophia and JoAnna.

Felix and Jeff were relieved to see that security let them pass. That means that girls are permitting them to come up.

While walking upstairs, Jeff and Felix exchanged few ideas what they will say when girls ask them why they are here. Every idea boiled down to: Aiden made them. He was not with them, so it was perfect to use him at this point. Neither Felix nor Jeff felt any guilt from that.

As soon as Jeff stepped inside, JoAnna pounced on him and wrapped her arms and legs around his body while raining kisses on him. "I missed you.", she said between kisses.

Jeff was relieved to see that she is not scolding him. His arms wrapped around her. "I missed you too.", he laughed seeing how goofy she is and returned her kisses.

Felix sat next to Sophia on the sofa, looking apologetic. "Sorry, I could not stay away."

Sophia smiled, removed her shoes and placed her legs in his lap. He started massaging her feet happily. The fact that she is letting him touch her feet (or any part of her) means that she is not upset.

In truth, every girl was more than happy to spend time with her man. The spa time was nice, but soon they were missing them, and they didn't care about girl-only time before wedding.. They wanted to relax and enjoy, and right now this felt right.
