ALEX
I grin at Max's statement. "Why, do you think the cameras would stop anyone if he or she got ... friendly with someone?" isn't that what they are trying to film anyway?
I think about Max's offer, it does sound tempting I have to admit but I wouldn't mind spending some time alone either.
"I don't know about joining you guys, I'll think about it and tell you later when we get back home."
KYLE
"I'll join you!"! I quickly say after Alex said that he's unsure. Have to make sure that Evans keeps his paws to himself after all. Oh, and the Keys might be interesting too.
"We won't be there the whole day, will we?" I ask then, I do have a date later on after all. Should I invite Isabel to come along with me? Or would that already count as crowding? But then again,I can't imagine her wanting to get up so early on her day off anyway.

*Max*
I look at Kyle in surprise. I did invite everyone, but there's something in the way he accepted that just seemed ... odd, somehow.
"Actually, yes, we were going to be gone all day. If the weather and the traffic co-operate, I'm hoping to get all the way out to Key West, do the whole chain. That will be a three-and-a-half hour drive. And of course, we'd want to stop a couple places along the way and spend some time there, so we wouldn't get back until long after dark."
"If you wanted a shorter day, you could travel separately so you could turn back sooner. Key Largo's only and hour and a half away," I suggest. Tess and I may not make it all the way to Key West, either, but I was hoping to give it a try.

MARIA
“And Maria you’re not, you know, being a bitch. You’re just a little antisocial right now.”
I smile gratefully at Liz. I’m pretty sure that there are a lot of people who would disagree with her words but its nice that she would say it. In the morning I’m going to have bridges to build with Michael and Isabel but I really don’t want to think about that right now.
“I’ve had this headache all day and my herbal remedies don’t seem to be working,” I say, opening the small bottle that Liz had rested by my hand. Closing my eyes, I knock back two of the pills and sigh.
“And I’ve been feeling tired and stress and homesick and I’m pmsing. Really not a good mixture.” I explain, trying to justify my actions and moods. “I might go home and just crash out for the night if that’s okay with you. I don’t want to ruin your birthday. You deserve to be having a great time on your 21st!”

ISABEL
I can’t help but raise an eyebrow at Kyle’s willingness to spend the day with the house’s lovebirds. I can’t imagine playing the third wheel would be much fun. Actually I don’t understand why Kyle even wants to go. It seems a little odd in fact.
“I bet you guys are going to have a great time.” I smile although I don’t think great is really the word to describe it. “I’m planning to spend the whole day lying by the pool, catching some of that Florida sunshine. Pure bliss!”

It’s fine if Kels leaves now. It’ll definitely give Liz some things to “play” with. And she can find out if Max was the one that got her friends and family here through a process of elimination of who to talk to. So no worries there.

I stood there leaning against the wall as Maria explained what’s going on and why she’s acting the way she is. I didn’t say anything. I just stood listening to her as she talked because I really didn’t want to interrupt anything she had to say especially since this is probably the most anyone has gotten out of her.
“Don’t feel bad about anything Maria. You’re not cutting things that short anyway. My family’s leaving pretty soon. My dad told me a little while ago. And you didn’t ruin anything, so get that idea out of your head right now. And I did have a great party.” I smile at her again to punctuate how much I liked it before I continued.
“Maria?” I asked, to gain her attention. I proceeded when she looked up. “I . . . do you want to go home alone? If you want to, I could go with you. You can be by yourself without being alone,” I say to her gently. “I promise not to bother you. I’ll just be there. That house is bound to make you feel lonely when you’re the only one in it.
“I don’t think loneliness is a good thing if you’re feeling homesick.”

Liz Parker is officially a better person than me.
I feel unbelievably guilty about my behavior tonight and floored by Liz’s unselfish act. Her offer to leave her own party, especially her 21st makes me feel a little more crappy and a little more light hearted at the same time. Its an odd feeling in my stomach as the feeling blend together in one tangled mess.
“I don’t think loneliness is a good thing if you’re feeling homesick.”
And I don’t think that having my special own pity party is a good thing either. I’ve spent most of the day wallowing in self pity and its about time that I kicked it before it becomes a habit.
“No, I couldn't ask you to do that. I’ll stay.” I smile, hoping that it doesn’t look as fake as it feels. How ever much I want to go home, I know that I need to stay, I need to see this night through to the end. I wish Lilly was here. She’s always be my pillar of strength and maybe I wouldn‘t have sunk so low if she had been here. But I need to stand on my own two feet, one of the main reasons I came onto the show was so that I could find myself again.
“The night is still young after so perhaps I can salvage it and have a good time.”

“Maria, don’t stay on my account. You have a headache. This really isn’t the best place to be,” I tell her. “The walls vibrate,” I add with a laugh. “I really don’t mind. I had my dinner, I ate my cake, I opened my presents, I went dancing, and I drank.”
She gives me a wry look in return and I laugh. I think that was to tell me that she doesn’t believe me.

Isabel's not coming along? Oh, I'll certainly stay at the house then too! Especially since Kyle isn't there. She'll probably needs someone to put some sun lotion on her back.
I just hope Isabel won't have fantasies about her date with Kyle … but I can already see that happen since I'm such a good friend and listener. It sucks to be the nice guy!
Hm, but I wanted to occupy Liz too. Well, I'll find a way to manage both I think.
"I think Liz's family wants to leave. When Liz gets out of the bathroom, we'll probably leave." Kels says then, interrupting my musings.
"Already?" I ask surprised. Then I look at my watch. "Oh … it is a bit later than I thought. I hope you enjoyed your stay."
"I certainly have. It was fun." Kels replies, coming over and giving me a hug. "Good luck with Iz." she whispers, only for me to hear.
I blush slightly and look at her surprised. She just wiggles her eyebrows slightly before moving on with the goodbyes.
Is it that obvious? She's only here for a few hours and ... oh right, the cameras around us.

"I'm so glad you and Liz's family made it," I tell Kels, grinning. "Travel safely." I'm tempted to ask her to call when they're home safe in Georgia, but I'm not her dad. That does seem to be a bit much.
*Michael*
I'm not about to go on Max's little day-trip so there doesn't seem to be much to say. As for Kels, well, I guess I've given up on her. I got Isabel in my sights now. Or Tess.
Hmmm.... Maybe I should go on the trip just to see if I can help Max make a fool of himself...
Nah. I'd rather hang here with Isabel. That seems like a better plan.
"See ya," I say to Kels.
