"Damn, McLaren, wake up!" Riley shook her cousin for the umpteenth time that day. Larra was sleeping soundly as if she hadn't rested all night.

If only she knew!

"Why don't you just pour some water on her head?" Shirley suggested, looking up from her phone.

"And who's going to clean the bed afterward?" Riley shot back. Shirley rolled her eyes and returned to her phone.

"Larra, wake up, you lazy bum!" Riley slapped Larra's butt, which was awkwardly sticking up from her strange position on the bed.

"Umm..." Larra squirmed, still half-asleep.

"Get up and get ready. Tyler is waiting for us," Riley said, feeling annoyed. She just wanted to be in her boyfriend's arms, but her lazy cousins were making that impossible.

"Why?" Larra mumbled, still barely conscious.

"I don't know. He said it was a surprise," Riley replied, almost shouting.

"Why is he giving us a surprise? He should be surprising you. Let me sleep," Larra groaned, pulling the duvet over her head.

Riley was getting frustrated. She yanked the duvet off Larra and tossed it onto the floor.

"What the fuck were you doing all night, then?" Riley asked, her irritation evident.

"Exactly that," Larra mumbled under her breath.

"What? Did you say something?" Riley questioned, placing her hands on her hips.

"Nothing. I'm just... tired." It wasn't a total lie; Larra was indeed exhausted after what had happened in Ron's car. They had come back at dawn, and Larra had managed to tiptoe into her room without waking her cousins. So, her secret was safe for now.

"Enough resting. Get up and get ready!" Riley commanded with finality.

"What about her? Tell her to get ready first. I'm going back to sleep till then," Larra said, trying to crawl back into bed. But Riley was quicker; she grabbed Larra's hand and pulled her out of bed, causing Larra to land on the floor with a thud.

"Ouch! What's your problem, Jenner?" Larra rubbed her sore backside.

"She's already ready, and so am I," Riley said, ignoring Larra's grimace. Larra glanced at Shirley, who was too engrossed in her phone to notice. Rolling her eyes, Larra picked out a dress and headed to the bathroom to wash up.

When the trio finally made it downstairs, Tyler and Ron were leaning against their jeep, engaged in a serious conversation. They stopped when they saw the ladies looking fresh and gorgeous in their floral mini-dresses.

"Here we are!" Shirley chirped excitedly, unbothered by the presence of the guys. Larra and Riley tried to play it cool. The men were dressed in casual shirts and loose shorts that made them look younger than they were.

"Hello, ladies... hello, baby," Tyler greeted, pecking Riley on the cheek and making her blush. Ron smiled and nodded at everyone.

"Where are we going, Tyler?" Larra asked as he opened the door for them.

"You'll see soon enough," Tyler replied with a wink, causing Larra to roll her eyes. She hated surprises; the feeling of anticipation always annoyed her. Ron took the wheel while Tyler settled into the passenger seat up front.

"Let me guess. We are going to Stacy's," Shirley said, clasping her hands together. Riley and Larra, sitting on either side, looked at her with a look that clearly said, 'Are you serious right now?'

"What? Where else?" Shirley asked, offended.

"There are lots of spots here in Miami, dear Bassey," Larra said, circling her arm around Shirley's shoulder.

"Oh really? Tell me about them then. Did you go alone somewhere without us?" Shirley challenged. Larra knew her cousin was talking nonsense as always, but in this case, it was true! She saw Ron looking at her through the mirror with a panicked expression.

"What if I did?" Larra asked back, matching Shirley's challenging tone.

"Sure. You did," Shirley chuckled and turned her face away. Larra knew she wouldn't take it easily.

When they parked near Stacy's, Shirley shot her cousins a look that said, 'See, I told you so.' Larra just ignored her and walked toward an excited Winnie, who was waving at them from Stacy's. Riley pulled Shirley along with her.

"Hey guys, are you ready?" Winnie asked. She was wearing a white maxi dress with a long slit on her right thigh, exposing her white fancy bra beneath the low-cut dress. She looked stunning, as always.

"Ready for what?" Riley asked, raising an eyebrow with a mixture of jealousy. Winnie already knew?!

Larra smiled and shook her head, reading the thoughts swirling in Riley's mind.

"For that" Winnie turned around and pointed towards the beach. The three cousins looked in that direction and became shocked.

"No way" Riley covered her mouth in disbelief.

"Fuck, man" Larra walked forward, removing her sunglass.

"Oh my god.. oh my God.." Shirley squealed, excitedly seeing the yacht.

"Seriously? We are gonna take a yacht?" Riley asked Tyler, in utter shock.

"How's the surprise, babe?" Tyler asked with a smirking face.

"I don't like surprises, but, I surely loved this one Tyler. Thank you so much, man," Larra said to Tyler.

"Sure. Actually, the yacht is on me, but the party is on Ron," Tyler said, looking at Ron, who was watching everyone's priceless expressions.

"Uhh. I really appreciate both of your efforts," Shirley said, wiping her fake tears and running towards the yacht. An equally excited Winnie followed her in the same way. Tyler and Riley intertwined their fingers and walked. Ron and Larra left behind, they looked at each other for a brief moment before chuckling.

They felt like thieves!

"After you, gorgeous" Ron whispered and showed the way to Larra, who smiled sheepishly and walked ahead.

The yacht was a small one, usually used for private parties. On the lower deck, there were some comfy seating arrangements and a pantry. The upper deck was open, best to view the sites. Tyler told the operator to start the engine.

"This is fucking amazing," Riley said climbing up the stairs, her head moving like an eagle around in excitement.

"I am really gonna book a yacht for our honeymoon," Shirley exclaimed. The excitement of sailing in a sea was evident in everyone's faces.

"Sounds good, Shirley" Ron gave her a thumbs up.

"The refrigerator is filled with your favorite drinks ladies.." Ron announced after checking the refrigerator.

"Really? Let me check" Larra said and opened the refrigerator again, Ron standing beside her.

"What would you like to have, Ma'am?" Ron asked dramatically.

"Oh.. the staff here are so handsome, I see" Larra played along, eyeing him up and down. Ron smirked hearing her.

"I am sorry, Ma'am. You wouldn't get that at this hour. It's duty time!" Ron said stepping closer to her.

"But I can wait" Larra seductively whispered, eyeing his lips. The two were returned to their teasing mode. Ron chuckled, a naughty smirk playing on his lips.

"The wait is longer, Ma'am," he said, tucking a few hair strands behind her ear.

"The wait is thrilling also," Larra said drawing patterns on his bare chest. Ron looked around with that same smirk.

"I agree with that. But, now, you have to please yourself with this 'Coke.'" Ron passed a Coke can to her and winked. Larra chuckled and took the can. She walked gracefully to the stairs, swaying her hips sexily, and paused at the stairs and looked down at him, who was looking at her each step with struggle.

"Thanks for the coke, handsome" Larra winked and climbed up, leaving a smiling Ron behind. Shirley was sitting on the couch and was capturing the surroundings heard the conversation between them and made a gagging face.

"Such a flirty pig she is" she murmured under her breath.

They enjoyed their lunch on the yacht, talking and teasing each other. The soft music is played in the background to set a mood. Everything was perfect, gifting an unforgettable memory of their vacation. One more day and they are back to their hectic schedule.

When Winnie went to use the washroom, Larra decided to tease her cousin a little. She moved near Shirley.

"Shirl.." Larra called in a whisper. Shirley looked at her confused. Larra nodded to come near and Shirley complied. Riley smelled something and sharpened her ears to know what they were talking about.

"What do you think about Winnie?" Larra asked.

"Winnie? She is so nice. Why are you asking me now?" Shirley said confused. Larra nodded with an exasperated expression.

"I think she likes you too much.." Larra said with a suggestive tone. Shirley furrowed her eyebrows, more confused. Riley smirked evilly hearing them.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you know that she is a lesbo. And she spends most of the time with you, among us. So.." Larra shrugged her shoulders with an innocent face. Shirley's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Really?" Larra nodded with that same innocent expression.

"No way," Shirley said defensively.

"I think so.."

"I don't think so.. she is like that with everyone"

"I also have the same doubt" Riley joined in the scam. Shirley looked at her with wide eyes.

"Don't you see that she is being too touchy with you? But it's fine, Shirl. You are too beautiful to resist.." Riley said like she was stating facts. A panic flashed in Shirley's face. Her Rayan!

She thought for a moment and looked at Riley. Then at Larra. Her cousins are sitting with those oh-so-innocent faces.

"You two bitches. Fuck off," Shirley hit both, annoyed. Larra and Riley burst into laughter.

"Oh Ms. I don't curse cursing too much now" Larra high-fived with Riley. Ron was sitting on the opposite couch looking at the three cousins with amazement.

The bonding between these three was priceless!

Tyler smiled when two hands circled his torso from behind. He grabbed the same hands and pulled the person more closer to him. When looking at the horizon with a warm smile, he was just thinking about the same person.

"Missed me?" Riley whispered from behind.

"You have no idea" Tyler leaned backward and said.

"Thank you for this treat babe. It's amazing. We wanted to take one yacht. But, It was out of our budget." Riley said coming in front to face him. Tyler immediately wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer.

"The daughters of three millionaires from Asia don't have money to take a yacht for a single day! How ironic " Tyler teased her.

"Oh please. We don't take a single penny from our parents for our trips. It's our own savings, especially Larra. That girl works her ass off to save for our trips," Riley said, chuckling.

"Why her only?" Tyler asked curiously. Riley looked at him for a moment, the playfulness shifting from her face.

"It's.. it's complicated" Riley said, doesn't want to elaborate things.

"But, she doesn't look like one"

"You won't get her easily," Riley said with a small smile. Tyler nodded understanding.

"Sorry, I disturbed you, love birds. But I want to capture this view" Ron came up with a sheepish smile. Tyler rolled his eyes and pulled Riley closer.

"It's ok, Ron. Do some clicks of us too" Riley said posing for him. Ron gave a thumbs-up and clicked photos.

"Fine. I am going down now" Riley said to Tyler, he nodded in response.

"Stay longer and have fun with your man. I am going" Ron said after clicking the views.

"It's ok. By the way, I heard you are having fun too" Riley said with a teasing smile and winked at him, making him slightly red by the remark. Tyler looked at them confused.

"What do you mean?"

"Oh. Your buddy is having so much fun lately" Riley swirled on her heels and said, and went down.

Tyler looked at Ron with furrowed eyes, soon his eyes widened in realisation.

"Don't tell me.." Tyler said in disbelief.  Ron shrugged his shoulders like it wasn't a big deal.

"It was.. Larra?" Tyler yanked his shoulder and made him face-to-face. Ron grinned at him shyly.

"Shit man. Why?"

"I mean, how?"

Tyler was still blabbering in shock when Winnie came up with a drink.

"What's cooking on here?" She looked at the men to and from.

"He fucked Larra" Tyler blurted out, still in trance to accept the newfound information. Ron gave him a look saying 'are you serious bro'. But, Winnie looked at them without any change of expression. Tyler looked at her confused, giving her a face like 'why aren't you saying anything '.

"So what?" Winnie asked nonchalantly.

"Huh?" Tyler asked while Ron chuckled seeing her response.

"What? They were being too obvious"

"Still.."

"Come on. The dinner is ready" Winnie said dragging both down. Tyler frowned confused. He know his best friend well. He never hooked up with a friend. But, Larra? Tyler looked at Ron with wide eyes. He hooked up with their friend and acted normal around her after that, not at all defining the behaviour of his best friend!

He will get laid with a friend only if....
