Then on Wednesday, the girls collected all the materials and things needed which meant a detour to various different places. This was happening while the guys were busy rehearsing in their dance studio with their choreographer and production stage designer. On the Thursday, the guys were measured up and discussing their chosen outfits with both Fifi and Maddie. AJ would have to be sorted when he comes back. The guys themselves interacted with him about his ideas as it was decided for his sake that it might be a bit too full-on pressure if the girls sorted it themselves with them not knowing him. They certainly were aware that AJ likes to be a little bit different to the other guys in the way he styled himself, yet they were still in the dark about anything else to do with him though.
After a full-on week, all the guys and girls went out for dinner on Friday. It was much deserved and a chance for any last bits to be finalised for the following week. They went to a local Chinese restaurant which Fifi really liked, especially as she's not been there before. She ate until her stomach could take no more. Luckily, she nor Maddie had any plans that night. They were looking forward to some downtime at their apartment.
The next day, Nick had planned for him and Fifi to have fun together. As he had told her to wear something comfortable, she decided to wear a pair of leggings, a vest too and ballet pumps. Nick picked her up in his car and took her to the port, when she realised that he was taking her on s boat trip; she suddenly felt very excited! She was impressed that it was his own boat, one of few to be precise! The day was a lovely and warm, sun-shining day which was perfect for the day out. This was the perfect opportunity for Fifi to top her tan up and relax.
"I'm taking us to Florida Keys for a few hours... We can hang out on the beach and do a bit of exploring, so you can see why I love it there!"
Fifi can't help but smile. She was determined to enjoy every second of today and make new memories, she was relieved that she has found a good friend inNick even if everyone else thinks it's more than that. After a smooth and relaxing boat trip, they both head to a cafe for something to eat. Before long, they're walking along the beach where they both take in the beautiful views surrounding the island. They happily chat while exploring. Fifi is loving the feel good vibe from the locals and tourists alike, totally different from city life back home. They come cross a shoot hoop to which Nick begs her to play with him.
"Noooo I don't know how you play it? I'll sit here and watch you..."
The next thing she's in his arms as he carries her to the pitch
"Just try and get it off me, ha!" "Yes sir!"
Unbeknown to Nick, Fifi was once a part of her college basketball team but has decided to play him at his own game seeing as he picked her up and carrying her across the pitch over his shoulder. She pretended she didn't have a clue, trying to get him to teach her, struggling and then saying
"I can't do it like that?!"
She soon started to play properly which made him realise he was took for a fool. Thinking he was coming behind her to get the ball, she squealed when he started tickling her! She ended up curled up on the floor with him still tickling her, laughing uncontrollably. Ten minutes later, still sitting on the floor, Nick checks the time on his phone and says to Fifi that it's probably best to make their way back before it gets dark. Helping her back up, she links her arm through his and they walk back to where the boat was anchored. The boat ride didn't take too long but long enough.
"Nick, a friend of mine said something to me the other day about you..."
"Oh yeah, what was that?"
Cautiously, dubious as to how he'll react when she asks him about something that's been bugging her since speaking to her friend, Jenny...
"Was it true, everything they said about you in the press?" Turning to make eye contact with her, Nick goes on to explain about his troubled past.
"So yeah, I've screwed up many times but I'm trying not to play the victim or the blame game anymore. You really weren't a fan of the Backstreet Boys, were you?!"
"Nope. You never know what to believe in the press anyway. Doesn't change how I see you of the other guys, you are human after all!"
"Thanks Fifi."
Once back on land and in Nick's car, he invites her back to his place for some food and they watch a film. She falls asleep and snuggles into his chest, he too falls asleep.
