talks to her but smiles at me. I grin back at him and laugh along with Brittany as she tells him that she hopes he doesn’t ruin our partying plans.
“I’ll take care of the rooms though Mr. Rosewood. It’s the least I can do.” Peter speaks up obviously somewhat upset that a romantic trip he was planning for the both of us had turned into some sort of quasi-family vacation.

The following week had Brittany and I going over all the items in our closet for the upcoming weekend.
“2 bikini’s, shorts, tank tops and dresses. That’s all we should be packing Elle.” Brittany said as she looked at the jeans and pajamas on my bed.
“I need PJ’s Brit.”
“No way Elle. There is no way you are wearing those ugly unsexy pj’s.”
“What shall I wear then?”
“Sleep naked.” She grins at me.
“Hell no.” I glare at her. There was no way I was sleeping naked with Peter.
“Okay, then sleep in underwear: a thong and a tank top .”
“I don’t think so.”
“Come on Elle, you will be the only one not getting any this weekend. Don’t be a prude.”
“What, what do you mean?” I look at her. “What about your dad?”
“Oh, I’m sure he and that evil Olivia are knocking boots.”

“Oh, yea. I hate her. I don’t think she can make my dad happy and a selfish part of me likes it being just me and him you know.”
“But what about if you get married?”
“I’ll still be a daddy’s girl. I mean I don’t mind if he dates, I’d just rather nothing serious and certainly no gold-digger trying to marry him and get his money you know.”
“Yeah, I can see why that would be a worry.”
“Let’s finish packing. The limo will be here to take us to the airport soon.”
Chapter 4
Vegas was fantastic. Lots of lights, lots of gambling and lots of food. For some reason our rooms weren’t ready when we got there so we had to store our bags at the front desk until we got back from walking along the strip.
“Okay guys, I have the keys.” Peter walks up to us and grins, He hands one to Brittany and Mark and then one to his mom.
“Aren’t you forgetting something Peter?” Elliott frowns at him.
“What?” Peter looks at him curiously.
“Two more keys? One for me and one for Elle?”
“Huh?” Peter looks confused and annoyed. “I didn’t think you guys needed
