The frilly blouse in his suitcase was presumably an accident ﹔ the fact that one of his favorite hoodies was missing, however, was most likely not. Such were the consequences of packing  ( or re-packing, in her case )  at the same time as his best friend, and although he had half expected it, this latest victim of Lola’s near-compulsive need to steal his clothing was too comfortable to surrender without a fight. After a final check to make sure he hadn’t simply overlooked it, he made his way to the suite that housed the Belgians, and knocked on the door until it opened.  “Lola  —”  he started, only to be greeted by the sight of the elder Belgian princess instead.  “Oh, hey Louise. Is Lola here?”

One of the things Teo enjoyed most about visiting a new place was finding out-of-the-way spaces to escape to, and this resort was no different. Besides, his usual coping mechanisms were an easy method of regaining a sense of normality amid the chaos of arriving, and so it was hardly surprising that he had given his bodyguards the slip and wandered around until finding a quiet corner. At least, one that had been quiet  —  until another person came into view. He inhaled from the cigarette held between his fingers, then blew out a mouthful of smoke before addressing them,  “If you're looking for a smoke-free zone, you're out of luck ﹔ I was here first, so you can either join me or keep looking.”

A place filled with politicians and scheming royals is not in Teo's top ten vacation spots  —  doesn't make the list at all, really  —  but one aspect of the program which he has been looking forward to is the proximity to people he cares about ﹔ both his family and his best friend. Although Belgium and Italy are only a few hours away by plane, he is not able to spend nearly enough time with Lola for his liking, and the prospect of being close enough to see each other whenever they want makes it difficult to stop grinning as he wanders through the resort.

Although he doesn’t want to startle Lola too much, the knowledge of her condition as old as the scar on his leg, he still enjoys surprising her. After being purposely vague about his weekend plans  ( a feat that was more difficult than he expected, so accustomed to telling the other everything )  and pretending nothing was out of the ordinary during the first day spent greeting his family, he spends the second learning where she is most likely to be found and making his way there. At the sight of Lola, he stuffs his hands into the pockets of his jeans and casually strolls over.  “Excuse me, signora ﹔ have you seen the princess of Belgium anywhere? I've been looking for her all morning.”

“Well, this sucks.”  Teo hoisted his backpack further up his shoulders, turning to look at his sister as they trailed slightly behind the main group.  “How are you holding up?”

Teo sits back in the plush airplane seat, tapping the armrests as his gaze wanders around the space then back to Ale.  “Yep, it’s just as nice as I remember it  —  though I still think you have a bed hidden away somewhere, considering this is basically your bachelor jet.”  An obnoxious grin grows on his face, always willing to tease his older brother when the opportunity presents itself.  “Regardless of if a bed was once actually part of the decor or not, though, it’s nicer than flying commercial ﹔ thanks for picking me up. Do they serve snacks?”

Teo had been looking forward to this particular reunion all day, both because he enjoyed spending time with Barbie and because of the food she had promised him, her cooking always able to make him feel at home. After a quick set of knocks prompted the door of his cousin's suite to open, he entered with a grin and kiss on her cheek in greeting.  “Feels like Christmas was ages ago ﹔ you’re still using my presents, right?”  He had known that the two collars would be perfect for her pets when he’d seen them, matching both Barbie’s general vibe and the uniqueness of the cats she took care of.

At a knock on his door, Teo rolled to the edge of the bed he had been sprawled on and stood, the stiffness of his muscles prompting a slight groan as he did so, then made his way across the room to open the door, a grin forming at the sight of his older sister.  “I don't remember ordering room service.”  He stepped aside to let her enter the room.  “Thanks for offering to help me unpack. Someone else did most of the preparations for this trip though, so other than my fencing gear I have no clue what half of that — ”  a gesture at the haphazard pile of bags on the floor  “— even is.”
