“Stop him. You’re coming here tonight. We’ll just put everything in the guest house.”
“He said we were going to stay here one more night.”
“Gunner just told me to tell you that he’s calling Razor now.”
She said goodbye, hung up, and went to look for her sister. She found her in the suite’s second bedroom, crying, and lay down next to her.
“I wish I had something I could say that would make you feel better.”
“I’m just feeling sorry for myself.”
“I’ll be right back,” Ava said when she heard a knock at the door. She hoped they didn’t get all the way up here with the packages already.
“We’re here!” screamed Tara and Penelope when she opened the door.
“Oh my gosh. Wow! What are you doing here? Wait. I mean, I’m so glad you’re here.”
Aine came out of the bedroom and ran up to hug their friends. “I’m so happy to see you both.”
“Come in.” Ava moved aside and waved the girls into the suite.
“How long are you staying?” Aine asked, noticing their bags like Ava had.
“We’re here for Christmas! Didn’t—”
“Surprise!” said Tabon, walking in behind them and over to Ava. “I thought they might help cheer up Aine,” he whispered.
“I love you so much,” she said, wrapping her arms around his neck.
“Are they like this all the time?” she heard Penelope say to Aine, but she didn’t hear her sister’s response.
“I’m going to head over to the house and give you ladies some time alone,” Tabon said before kissing her cheek.
“I don’t know how to thank you for doing this,” she said, kissing his lips.
“I have a few ideas.” Tabon looked over at her sister and their friends. “We’ll talk about it later.”
“Oh. What about…I mean, where will they stay?”
“Headed there to figure it out. Worst case, they’ll stay here.”

Razor was on his way down to the SUV when his phone rang. He looked at the screen and saw Doc was calling.
“Tell me you’re calling with good news.”
“The opposite, I’m afraid. Still no word.”
“Shit. This is bad.”
“I agree.”
“Can we go in and look?”
“That’s one of the reasons I’m calling. We need to put a team together.”
“Who are you thinking?”
