10:30 PM- Cotton (hot new club in Vienna)
'Don't stop, make it pop, DJ blow my speakers up, tonight Imma fight..'
"Wooooh! Par-tay over here!" Angel screamed on the top of her lungs while throwing her arms in the air.
Klemey stood next to her just moving her hips to the music. Rai could tell that something was on her mind. "Are you alright Klemey? You look...distracted."
Klemey stopped moving to the music and looked at Rai like she was crazy.
"What do you mean by that!? If you're implying that I'm distracted by another human being, you're mistaken!"
Rai jumped at Klemey's snappy response. She definately knew something was up.
"Klemey, it's alright. If you want to share something with me, I'll keep it to myself."
Klemey turned away from Rai. She thought for a second and then turned her attention back to the Rai. "Ok, but you can't say anything to Angel."
Rai took Klemey's arm and lead her to a table away from the dance floor. "What is it?!"
Klemey sat down in a big, cushy red chair and looked down at her feet. "I think I'm in love with someone else."
Rai's mouth dropped with shock. "Who is it?!"
Klemey looked up. "Landon."
Rai's mouth dropped again with confusion. "Chris' butler Landon?! or a super hot guy I don't know Landon?!"
"The first one. I know we have some sort of connection. I just don't know if he feels the same about me." Klemey said sadly.
"But you just met him Klemey. Shit, you haven't even met him. He just got you some wine. Which, by the way, was a mistake cuz Chris loves the red wine." Rai added jokingly.
"This isn't funny Rai! I just told you my current life crisis and all you can do is joke about your fiance's drinking addiction?!" Klemey responded angrily.
"He does not have a drinking addiction Klemey! God, I can't believe you would even say that!" Rai started to grow frustrated.
"Well sorry, I'm just faced with a really huge problem and I don't know what to do!" Klemey started to sob.
"I thought you loved Gubler..." Rai tried to make sense of what was happening.
"I thought I did too...until I laid eyes on Landon. Then everything in my world was turned upside down." Klemey looked up at Rai for help.
"Tell me what to do Rai. You seem to know a lot about relationship issues. Uh, I mean..that's not what I meant."
Rai looked away from Klemey and really considered leaving her here to cry her eyes out alone. But she knew that would be wrong and decided to ignore the last part.
"Well I would first ask myself, am I happy with Gubler right now?...So....are you happy with Gubler right now?" Klemey thought for a minute and said "Yes, in fact I am more than happy. He makes me feel so special and like I am the only important thing in this world!" Klemey was trying to figure out why she was so hooked on Landon if she was so madly in love with Gubler.
Rai thought this through for a couple of minutes and then remembered something that had happened in the past.

8 months earlier
"Chris? I'm home." Rai walked through the front door of the Austrian penthouse at 8:00pm on a Tuesday night. She put her keys in the key tray on a shelf on the right. She hung her coat up and put her Prada handbag down on the floor and removed her 5 inch pumps from Kate Spade.
"Chris?" She walked around the corner and saw that her bedroom door was open and figured Chris was in there. As she walked towards the door she heard a loud crash in the bathroom. "Chris?" Rai ran down the hall to the bathroom on the left and tried to open the door. It was locked. Rai was banging on the door and screaming "Chris?! Are you in there?! Say something! Are you alright?!" As she kept banging on the door she heard someone yell from the front door "Rai?! What's going on?!" She turned around just as Chris came to the hallway. "Oh Chris, I heard a crash and I thought you were locked in there!"
Chris pushed Rai to the side [gently] and tried opening the door and he shouted "Landon?! Are you in there?!" Finally, the door lock clicked and the knob turned slowly. As Chris stood back, Landon opened the door and said "Oh hey you guys, I was just cleaning in here." Chris looked at Rai and Rai looked at Landon. "But I heard a crash...and we were screaming our asses off? Why didn't you open the door?" Landon looked momentarily confused and rather drained. "Oh I guess I didn't hear you.....my ipod was up too loud." Chris didn't believe Landon for some reason, so he pushed Landon to the side and opened the bathroom door all the way. He couldn't believe what he saw on the floor.
