Chapter 19 & 20

"Hey who's is there?" Xavier asked with Nelly gummed to him out of fear.

Everywhere was silent except for the sea breeze and backward splash of water. After a while of no response, Nelly let go of Xavier and the went to the direction only to find Jona dusting off sand from his body with a disgusting face.

" Like seriously dude what are doing here?" Xavier asked pi**ed off but he did not respond or even glance at him.
" Are you okay!!, I mean are hurt?" Nelly asked helping him out and ask if that's work like magic Jona smile.
" Am okay kiddo " he replied still with the smile and Xavier eyes became darker immediately.

After that Nelly say goodbye and left without giving Xavier a glance, he frown want to go after her but decide to let her be if it's what she want.

" Like seriously was that really necessary?" Xavier asked with his eyes fixed on Jona.
" What are you talking about dude" he replied innocently and Xavier made an Ô, he turned to leave but Jona statement stopped him.

" I think you are going to loose the bet" Jona said with a smile.
" Ooh really?
"Yes buddy and prepare for it " he replied and left immediately.

It's been 3 days since they came back from the trip and from this 3 days Nelly totally ignored Xavier.
He don't know what happened to him after that attempt to kiss her, it's seems like everything changed for him, he can't concentrate on anything.

Whenever he sees a girl coming his way, only Nelly's face float in front of his eyes. He want to talk with her about that night but yesterday Noah said that she went to her home country for a vacation and she won't be back till next one week.
He was quite sad after Hearing that and that one week sounds like forever for him because of what is burning him inside.

*** Brazil***
"After the attempt to kiss I was too embarrassed to face him that's why I've been ignoring him since last 3 days.
Now I'm here in my home with my parents and brother.
I've visited them after 2 years and I missed them so much maybe that's why I'm not thinking about hm " Nelly said with a sight.

" Wait!!! you are not serious right? I mean he is Xavier smith, the demi god " Billy said dreamily lying her head on the couch.
" Billy enough with the drama okay!! He is a human who breath like you and me so get over with it" said and left for the kitchen to have some fruits.

She came back with a lot in a blue bowl and they eat while chatting about little stuff and she was happy because this is the very moment she dream it will be when she get back. The thaught of it and friends smile made it all.
" What Nelly ?? " Billy asked after seeing her friend is silent.
" Just realized i have miss this moment a lot" Nelly said with tears whelming up in her eyes.
" Ahhh stop it you gonna make cry, I also miss like a lot and now you are hear so let's enjoy the moment together without tears okay??" Billy replied with a and she nodded her head in response.

" I love you Billy " love you too Nelly. They both said and hugged each other.

Today me and my mom will go for some shopping. She wanted to show me some new local shops over here so I went with her.

" We can go out for some cupcakes to our normal shop if you like" Billy said dramatically.
" I can't, mom and I are going for shopping, she want to show me some local new shops " she replied with a sad face and Billy laugh finding it funny.
" Okey see you tomorrow for more fun kiddo"
Billy replied and run off knowing what Nelly will do if she delay one more minute.

Nelly mom came back and they went out for hopping as programed earlier .
After shopping they had their late lunch in her favourite restaurant. She took a lot of photos with mom and update it on he account and it full up immediately with love emojis.

They come out the restaurant and she saw an ice-cream shop.
"Mom, I want ice-cream " she said to her Mom with a pout.
"No you will catch cold" her mom replied in a stern voice.
"Please mom only one scoop, I promise pleaseee" Nelly said in her childish voice.
"Ok ok you stay here with the bags I'll get 1 for you" her mom said while putting all the bags in her hand. Nelly also nodded her head like a kid..

Nelly stood there waiting for her and she came out with ice-cream and particularly her favorite flavor, giggle like she a child.
Her mom who was on the other side of road saw her reaction and Shok her head in amusement.
Suddenly Nelly saw a car was coming towards her with full speed. She shouting for mom move fast that a car is coming, but because of the noisy crowd her mom didn't heard her.
" what are you saying??" Her mom asked.
That car was coming at full speed so Nelly don't know what to do . In panic, she quickly ran fast to her mom and pushed her from the road .
The last thing she remember hearing wasa heavy horn.
She got hit by the car and she fell on the grown with blood oozing out of her mouth, ears and her legs with a big fracture born which toured the flesh out.

Her wake up with scratches on her arms and for head with little blood oozing out.
" OMG nellllyy" her mom shout in horror after realization hit her of the tragedy that just happened.
.........
On the other side
Xavier, Evan, Jona & Demain were going to one of the club of Jona's club in the same car.
Noah refuse to join them so he was home in his room reading some comics book to pass time when he suddenly got a call...
"' why is dad calling me at this time!' Noah murmured beneath his breath while picking the call.
" Hello dad!!!
" Yes I'm free any problem?!!!

Chapter 17
Soon Xavier also came downstairs after a long 2 hours of shower because of his excited little buddy earlier.
After a while others also went to the beach to join Evan and Pablo.
"Finally you guys are here! Do you have any idea that how long we are waiting for you guys?!" Pablo said with an annoyed face.
"Ok ok now we're here so let's good" Noah said and pulled Aiden and Jona with him. Evan, Pablo, Noah and Nelly also followed them and went in the water but Xavier, Nelly and Demain didn't move.
The incident of what happened earlier still in her head so she just sat down watching them.

They started playing with each other and Nelly notice everyone was in water but Demain and Xavier were standing together and watching them so she went towards them and the idea to have suddenly hit her.

"Hey why are you both standing here? Come on let's go.." she said and held both of their hands dragging them with her.

Others started to splashing water on them but Xavier stood Infront of Nelly preventing water to reach her and all waters were hitting his back.
Nelly was very surprised with Jack's sudden protective reaction.
He was so closed to her that she could feel his breath on her neck.. Her breath went heavy.

"Look someone is saving Nelly from our attacks" Jona said in a teasing tone.
hearing Jona they both realized their position was so close and they moved immediately away from each other.
Demain who was with them just moved away quietly without a word.
Playing to their hearts content, and went inside their various rooms but Nelly was held by Demain.
"Are you okey? I mean how do feel!!!? Demain asked staring at her like his perry.
"Fine" Nelly answered simply and left.
Few days passed with fun..

One day they all decided go for shopping, and Nelly was excited like ever. They shopped and Nelly was running from one clothes taking photos like an exciting puppy on hi first day going to a park.
" Is this how she usually behave when shopping? Noah asked watching the naughty styles she post with every clothes she put on.

" That's why we call her kiddo" Pablo replied with a smile. Jona join her and they continue their funny post photos.

While crossing a shop Nelly saw a ring bracelet. So she asked the shopkeeper to show her that. It was really petty with a golden crystal on it.
While nelly was admiring it, the shopkeeper said
"It's very pretty mam, it also hold a very spacial meaning" .
"What is that??" Nelly asked with a smile getting more interesting.
"Basically this ring which is holding the both point of the bracelet means 'promise to hold you for the whole life'. This bracelet is sign of promise that we make to our partner" shopkeeper said.

Nelly really loved the bracelet and wanted to buy it but she thought it's no use of her because she doesn't have a partner and other person who have a partner can buy it as a symbol of their love. So she left the shop without buyit.
They arrived home and Noah announced that it is their last night so they will do bonfire and barbecue in the garden later.
So everyone went inside their room to freshen up.
Nelly came out from her room and saw Xavier who was also coming out from his room.
They both had an eye contract for a minute then Xavier and it made Xavier nervous.

"Ready to go?" Xavier asked not knowing what to say. Nelly smiled and nodded her head and they both head out together in the garden.

In the last 4 days Nelly and Xavier came quite close with each other.. Ofcourse in a friendly way.. They all went to local restaurants, Local shops and many more place. And in main time Xavier really more interest in Nelly more then anyone.

*Flash back*
They were shopping Nelly insist they should visit the other shop across the other side and they decided to go all together.
Nelly was crossing the road when a car at full speed came towards her and Xavier intervent quicker than anyone could. He pulled her away at a right time or else they don't know what would have happened.
* End of flash back*

After that car incident everytime when they cross any roads Xavier will hold her hands and pull her near to him .
All this change her point of view towards Xavier . She also started to think 'he maybe not that bad'............
All the members were already doing barbecue, on the other side. Demain alone was decorating the place and immediately Nelly arrived.

"Sorry guys I'm late, let me help you guys" she said and went near Demain and started helping him with a smile on her face.
Demain and Nelly were doing their work laughing time to time .

On the other other hand Xavier was burning with jealousy.
"What's wrong with me? He said shaking his head and sad down watching them
He don't know what he's feeling but he knows that he is not liking Nelly giving her precious smiles to Demain.
He never felt jealous towards anyone in fact his first girlfriend also used to hang out with his friends and they also used to flirt with each other but he never felt this kind of feeling but now why he's feeling like this?!
After a while, barbeque was ready so they all down to have their dinner together in the garden and suddenly Nelly choked on her food. Xavier was about to give her water but Demain hurily gave her water and started to rub her head and back.
" Are you okey? " Demain asked and she nod her head in response and he remove a string of hair on her face.

Xavier scoffed but didn't said anything.. He just went inside the house alone.
Everyone was puzzled why he suddenly left but Jona was smirking because he knew the exact reason.

Jona also went inside and he saw Xavier drinking cold water .
"Are you jealous Xavy?" Jona asked with a grin.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Why would I be jealous?" Xavier replied in an irritational voice.

"Ohh that's good then.. Basically, I think both Demain and Nelly looks cute together.." Jona said while
eyeing his egoistic friend..

Xavier hold the bottle tight. He was about to answer but Jona spoke again
" Yeah why would you feel jealous, you don't even like Nelly... Though it was a bet with you.. But, now I think they are for each other.. my bad I misunderstood you"
Xavier was feeling something strange in within " yes jona is right! It's just for a bet I can't love anyone so I'm not jealous...'
He thought.. But, it was hard for him to digest the fact! Why? He doesn't know!
Jackson did not reply anything.. He only hummed and return outside with Jona Only to find, Nelly was playing a guitar and singing a song.

"You're the light, you're the night
You're the color of my bloodYou're the cure, you're the pain
You're the only thing I wanna touch
Never knew that it could mean so much, so much.............

She finished her song and everyone clapped.
"Wow it was awesome Nelly. I didn't knew you know how to use a guitar!" Noah said.

"Actually Evan bro taught me some times ago and at some point I'm still lacking that's why I've never played that in any show" Nelly explained to them with a smile.
It's was almost midnight and everyone went back to their room.
Nelly said goodbye to everyone and started walking towards her room with a phone in her try to read a replied message from her friend Billy.

"Nelly.." Xavier called her from behind.
She turned and saw Xavier was standing at the end of the stairs .
"Umm do you wanna have a walk with me in the beach" he asked her with hopeful eyes.

"it's our last night here so it's not a bad think for me to have fun right, Evan is asleep so it's a good idea" Nelly thaught for a while and she agreed to fool him.

They came out for walk but both of them don't know how to start a conversation.
Finally, Nelly Star a conversation asked him after hesitating for a moment "Do you like beach?"

He nodded "Yes, when I was a kid we used to go for family holiday in the beach every year, because my mom loved the beach" Xavier replied his smile fading fast.
Nelly knew his mom is no more so she took over the topic .
"you know when I was a kid I went to a beach with my family and I almost drowned in the water but suddenly a life guard came and saved me. After that incident I'm really afraid of deep water" Nelly said said with a sad smile.
"But I still love beaches. It's so peaceful to walk in sand with bare feet.." Nelly said and looked toward only to found Xavier staring intensively her.

" You look beautiful when make that face" Xavier said cupping her head , so her face wash one inch away from his. Nelly close her eyes unable to move because of their closeness which sen sparks through boody.
Xavier saw it was an opportunity now or never so he lane in and was about to kiss her when someone fell like a log of wood.
"Whhaattt!!!!!"

Chapter 15 & 16

" I mean the the bird there " Xavier said pointing at a statue bird. Nelly saw it and smile observing how they made the statue.
After a while everyone gathered in dinning room for dinner together.
After such a long journey everyone was tired so they all went in their various rooms to a have rest.

Nelly roll on her bed two times unable to sleep .
" Haaaaa.. what is this, am unable to sleep I think this bed is too comfortable" Nelly said with frustrated face.

After a while an idea pop in her head and her face brighten up.
" let me check out the house by myself maybe is a castle who knows " she said and left.
She checked the whole house with a wide mouth. It was so big, it had gym, theater, music room, library, game room and many more. At last on the backside she saw a big swimming pool paint in green and there were with flowers all over floating on water, small stars breath the pool.
Her mouth made an Ô "God i don't want wake up from this dream" she with her eyes roaming around the place .

She don't know how to swim but still she love swimming pool especially this attractive one , so she went near the pool and sat beside it, she took her legs inside the water and immediately she came in contact with it her body tense the fear in her over coming her courage but after a she relax and a little breeze came blowing, lifting part of her hairs.

She was still enjoying the breeze when suddenly someone voice came behind her.
" What are you doing?" And she was frightened.
"Hey you want to give me heart attack??" She said to him while she was trying to get her heartbeat normal by rubbing her chest with hand.

"Umm sorry, I didn't wanted to scare you"Xavier said in a gentle tone and sat beside her.
"It's ok " she said in a low voice rolling her eye and a small smile appeared on Xavier face and disappeared immediately after that.
She don't know why but her body was getting more warmer after having him beside her.

They both sat there without saying anything, this is the first time they sat together and alone and it awkward and maybe this silence between them was comfortable.
She wanted to start a conversation but she don't know how to do that so she remain quiet.

"Do you always get afraid easily???" Xavier asked her.
"Yes, from my birth my heart is weak so I get scared off easily" she replied not looking at him and he made an oohh as response and silence took over again.

"Ok then you enjoy the breeze I'll go inside" Nelly said and tried to get up but Xavier hold her hand and she immediately turn her face and their eyes lock for a moment.
"Do you feel uncomfortable around me? Xavier asked still looking at her.

Again she felt spark by his touche but she was astonished by his question.
To be honest the answer is YES she feels uncomfortable but she can't say that to him.

"we are not well known to each other that's why maybe we are not that comfortable with each other" she said with a nervous smile.

"Then let's get to know about each other,We can do that right?"

"We will get to know each other, we have 5 days right!" She said with a small smile.
"Ohh ok then you go inside,it's quite windy here he said and left her hand.

When he left her hand she don't know why but she felt something empty inside and air around also suddenly turned cold, but she didn't said anything else and went to her room.

She slept while thinking what Xavier said and what she felt when he left her hand, " maybe is because of the cold breeze and his still outside, but who cares " conclude and slept off.

Next morning
Nelly went downstairs and saw Jona, Noah and Demain having breakfast.

"Good morning Nelly" Jona greet.
She also wished them morning and had breakfast with them.
" Hmmm were are the others ?? Nelly asked taking a seep from her juice.

"They are still sleeping" Demain response staring at her with admiration.

After the breakfast Nelly didn't know what to do because Evan bro has restricted her from going to the beach without them all and she hate him right now fir that, so she went straight to the pool and stood there admiring the the unique view.
" How can the paint a pool in green? But any how it's beautiful" said talking to herself while going near it.
Suddenly someone pushed her from behind and she fell into the pool.

It was Jona who pushed her, he started laughing after doing that to her but on the other hand Nelly was drowning and he didn't noticed that.
Nelly don't know how to swim and the water level was also too high for her to stand ,so she shout for help trying to swim to able.
When Jona heard that and for a second he was numbed . Demain saw the scene and hurriedly went near the pool to save her but someone suddenly jumped into the pool and swim towards Nelly and held her waist tightly Nelly also hugged him tightly and wrapped her legs on his waist like her life depends on it.

Xavier pulled her out of the pool and he tried to put her down but she was not leaving him...Herbody was trembling because of the shock and cold water.
Xavier also hugged her more tightly.

He carried her out from the poolside and direct went in her room.
Demain and Jona follow behind, they arrived her room upstairs and Xavier tried again to put her down but she refused to let him go.
Nelly listen to me, your are fine, let me see if you got any injuries or not ". Xavier said but still she was not leaving him.

He sighed helplessly and asked to Jona and Demain to wait outside he will take care of her.
Demain wanted to voice out that he'll also stay but Jona dragged him out.

"Actually i went into the kicken to get some water and saw someone's backside on the poolside
When I get closed I saw Nelly was enjoying the breeze.
We had little conversation and then she went in her room. After that I also went in my room and don't know when I fell asleep while thinking about her.
In the morning I woke up quite late and when I went downstairs to look for others I heard someone's shout from pool.
When I looked clearly, I saw Nelly was shouting for help. So without waiting for a second I went inside the pool and carried her out from water.
She was so scared that she was not leaving me so I direct took her in here and asked everyone to leave us alone for sometime but she is not still let me go so i don't d know what do than to call you" Xavier explained all at a go and Mr Albert smile.
" I think you know exactly what to do you just need to calm okay " he said and left immediately leaving no room for Xavier to ask any question.

"Nelly you're fine,look I'm here with you" he tried to calm her down but she was still shivering.
"Bunny please calm down, you need to change your dress, look you are shivering" he said and she loosened the hold and he put her in the bed.

She was wearing white shirt and because of water that was drenched, he could see her black bra and her cleavage was totally visible.
Water was still dropping from her jaw to collarbone, his buddy down there got excited just seeing that .
His breaths also became uneven.
'F**k I'm loosing my mind after seeing her ' he murmured .
"Did you said something?" Nelly asked him in low voice.
"N-No nothing you get changed or you'll feel cold " he said that and left her room only to meet Demain at the door.

Chapter 13 &14
" A hmmm..am!!!! Am sorry " Nelly said nervous and adjust back on her seat.

Xavier just nodded his in response the incident replaying in his head.
" Nelly are you okey??" Demain asked and when he noticed the nervous look on her face. She nodded her with a smile.

The ridding was quiet untill they reach their destination.
The place was beautiful with and the beach was very busy with people and a lot of activities. Nelly was so excited at what she saw, bright smile appeared on her face, she was like a child on her first day at her dream school.

" Guys this way " Noah said leading the way and everyone follow suit except for Nelly who was there like lost puppy .

" Yeah kiddo this way , i know it look fantastic but can you at least hold the excitement for at least a minute for us to settle down?" Evan said." I doubt that" Xavier replied and Nelly immediately turn to follow them without a word.

" Okey guys amhhhh.. welcome to SMITH- XV- Beach Manson and feel at home" the Chief in charge of the Manson welcome them and they all response with a smile for Xavier and Pablo wandered why but he chose to bluff it off.

" Okey were one check the rooms out and choose the one that suit you best" Noah said and they dispares looking for their rooms .

Nelly rush up stairs and saw a room paint in blue, she open it and her jaw dropped at the view Infront of her.

"OMG Disney here you are " she exclaimed. She moved to the bed fall on it and she close her eyes feeling the softness .
The whole room is in blue the light, bed, infact everything.she stood up and went beside the window and there is the best ocean view she have ever seen in life and the sunset also eliminating the room makes it more beautiful. She remove her phone and start snapping pictures of her.

She took many of them and also send some to her parents.

" Aiden you need to this girl, her beauty is something else God!!" Pablo said showing Aiden a photo of a girl she mate at the beach.

Actually after chosing their rooms everybody came back to the living room and they all left to the beach except for Nelly, Xavier and Demain.

"Hey Billy how are you doing, i know it's been long since our last chat and I miss you a lot, call me when you receive this" Nelly said on phone sending a voice message to her friend.
" I don't know you also have female friends kiddo" Xavier said at the door frame with the hands in the pocket.

" The last time i check we are not that close to know each other" Nelly said still backing him.
Xavier remain silent just observing her and for the first time he saw her beauty... Long smooth legs, nice curves
" You are mine bunny" Xavier said out loud and that draw Nelly's attention.

" I'm yours????

🌷 That's not what I meant 🌷

Chapter 11&12. Not edit

Xavier chock on his words more like coughing .
Demain understood his game and he roll eyes in disguise way.
" Are you okay?" Pablo asked with a concern on his face.
" Am fine just need water" Xavier response sending his hand for a cup of water and Jona immediately passed it to him.

"Thank you guys for coming here actually as your senior I wanted to congratulate you for your success that's why I arranged this dinner with my friends"Noah stood up and said with a bright smile gaining attention from everyone especially Nelly, who had a smile of proudness.
They all thank him and every where went silent

"Hey Guys, Nelly and Xavier are dating" Jona suddenly said.
Evan who was turn to call for the waitress frozen on his sport with the hand in air and the mouth open unable to move about the shocking news.
Nelly who was drinking water choked badly. Xavier immediately offered he a tissue and rubbing his hand on her back. She turned her face immediately his hand touched her back almost brushing her lips with his. shocked is under estimate to express what she felt,Even his sudden change of attitude.

"What the hell are you taking about Jona" Xavier said with a cold voice
"Clam down dude, I was about to say are you dating or not because both of you are wearing same colour of dress" Jona said with a chuckle holding his laughter by their reactions.

They bother check out their outfit and it really matched. And every where silent again. No one saying anything.

To clear the silent, Noah stood up clap his gaining attention from and he declared the reason for the dinner.
"Ok guys let me tell you the real reason behind this dinner. There's a tour plan for all of us, that means we will go on a trip which include everyone of us.

"Whattt!!!!" Nelly exclaimed loudly with wait wide eye and all the Everyon eyes turned toward her.
Nelly saw their gaze starmmed "umm.. I mean I can't.. I have to visit my parents so you guys can carry on" she said with an awkward smile.
"No no Nell you can't back off because the company has already arranged everything" Noah said.

"Why would the company arranged everything? Aren't you taking us for a tour? Aide asked.

"No it's dad, I mean CEO sir bearing all expenses because he was happy with your achievements so he thought he should give some holiday to you guys and yes you guys can't say no to CEO right?" Noah said with a final decision leaving no room for discussion.

Nelly put on a saur face not really happy about the news ,how could she refuse the command of CEO..
She really didn't wanted to go with them most especially with Xavier he kept on staring at her so she wanted to ignore him.. but now she doesn't have any other choice than going with them on that stupid tour.
"Ok then when are we going and most importantly where are we going?" Aiden asked excitedly arranging his suit.
"Destination is a surprise and we are going tomorrow morning and yes we will go together in a mini bus okay" Noah replied.
"Yes yes Captain. I really needed a vacation.. my whole body is tired after this 2 week promotion. i think we should thank our CEO Mr Andrew.." Pablo said looking at Evan but he said nothing.

"N-No need of th-that, Dad told me to just inform you g-guys" Noah said hesitatingly.
"Oh ok then for how many days are we going to spend" Evan finally asked after a long time ago of silent.
"we are going for 5 days and most importantly we are going near a beach so bring your dresses according to the place. I will pick up you guys from the outside of your dorm . Noah replied and immediately signal the waitress to save them

The dinner was silent afterward after that , Nelly and her friend left to prepare for the next day trip.

"Nelly was not happy with the tour decision I could see that through her face but who cares! I will get more time to woo her because it's been already 15 days so I need to buckle up my plans and make her fall for me fast " Xavier said in his mind looking at Nelly photo in his phone with a smile.
Actually earlier when Noah announced the tour thing and Nelly's expression changed he found it funny and secretly took a photo of her.

"Now spell the beans" Xavier said while looking at Noah.
Noah point his finger toward Jona indicating it was not his idea" this guy told me to do this. Gosh! my dad doen't even know, if they contact him it will be over" Noah said again roughing his head.

"Relax dude, they won't do that.. I know and Xavier I did this for you. Its already been 2 weeks but you still could not even get a bit closer to Nelly, so I made this tour. There you can get enough time to execute your plans" Jona said.
Xavier also nodded his head because he was happy with their plan.
Among them only one person was gloomy and that was Demain.He didn't said a single word because he know if he says something his friends will know that he also likes Nelly.
Moreover, he didn't like that dare because he knows Nelly is not that kind of girl but in front of his friends he couldn't voice out, that's why he get a bit closer to Moon, so I made this trip. There you can get enough time to execute your plans" Ray said.
Jackson also nodded his head because he was happy with their plan.
Among them only 1 person was gloomy and that was Sid.He didn't said a single word because he know if he says something his friends will think that he likes Moon.
Moreover, he didn't like that dare because he knows moon is not that kind of girl but in front of his friends he couldn't voice out about that, that's why he kept his mouth close.
"Hey Demain,why are you so quiet today?" Noah asked .

"Nothing I just have little headache and yes you guys carry on.. I will see you guys Tomorrow morning" he replied dry and walked out of the room.

It was 7 in the morning Aiden, Pablo Evan and Nelly both stood waiting for Noah beside their apartment.
The car finally arrived after in few minutes and the seven boys took there places and only the place left was beside Xavier.

Without any choice Nelly went close to seat down and the bus started moving.. It was too sudden that she couldnt held herself to balance and just fell on Xavier's lap.
He quickly caught her.. Her hands on his shoulder and his hands were on her waist.. And their eyes met.. The at the same same time.
