I woke up in my bed feeling very refreshed. I desperately needed that sleep. I stretched my arms, put on a pair of warm slippers, and got out of bed. Colin was making breakfast. "Good morning," I said. "Good morning Jennifer. How are you this morning?" he asked. "I'm great," I answered with a smile. "Excellent. I just got a call saying that Drew is sick so we won't be filming for a couple days," Colin informed. "That's too bad," I stated. He gave me a plate of french toast and a glass of milk. "Thanks," I said. "You really don't have to thank me," Colin stated. "But you make such amazing food," I replied. He gave me a brief hug. I ate my breakfast. "Do we have any plans for the day?" I asked. "Some of the guys from whose line are coming over," Colin answered. I thought of a funny prank idea that I could use because they don't know that I'm back from my trip. "What's so funny?" Colin asked noticing the strange smile on my face. "One word: pranks," I answered. He smiled mischievously with me. I washed my face and brushed my teeth upstairs. I put on white jeans, a light gray tank top, and a white and gray striped cardigan. I brushed my hair and put on some lip balm. "What time are they coming over?" I asked once I was downstairs. "In a few minutes," Colin answered. "I'm going to be hiding behind the window in the living room. After they get settled in, I'll plaster myself to the window and make a scary face," I told him. "That will be funny. They'll fall for it for sure," Colin confirmed. I ran out of the house and took my position right by the window.

A few minutes later, I saw Chip, Jeff, and Ryan enter the living room with Colin. They sat down and were talking to each other. I waited for the perfect opportunity to scare them. It must have been at least ten minutes since they got there so I assumed that they wouldn't be suspecting anything. I pressed myself against the window with the scariest face I could make. Chip, Jeff, and Ryan jumped and screamed at the same time. I smiled to myself. The plan worked. I hurried inside. "I thought you weren't supposed to be back for a day or two. How are you?" Ryan asked hugging me. "Our staff is pretty busy planning an arena show tour so they wanted to get right down to business and get our work done as soon as possible. I had such a nice time," I answered hugging him back. "What did you guys do?" Chip asked. "We did a few interviews, some concerts, and a photoshoot for our upcoming album," I answered. "It sounds like you had a great time," Jeff said. "I did," I replied. I hugged Chip and Jeff. "Colin and Ryan have to get some work done for a charity event that's coming up soon so Chip and I have decided to take you to an indoor waterpark since it's still cold," Jeff announced. "Really? That will be amazing," I replied. I hurried upstairs and put a swimsuit and a towel in a bag before returning downstairs. Chip, Jeff, and I left the house.

The indoor waterpark was so empty because it wasn't the season for vacationing. We had the whole place to ourselves. Jeff and Chip purchased our tickets and we put on our wristbands. We went into the locker rooms to get changed into our swimsuits. I put on a dark blue swimsuit. I met Jeff and Chip in the waterpark area. "What do you want to do first?" Chip asked. "Let's get in the pool to get warmed up for the intense slides," I suggested. The three of us walked to that area. Jeff pushed me into the pool. "Jefferson Davis," I yelled before going underwater for a mini prank. I filled my mouth with water. I heard two splashes. I closed my eyes. I felt a pair of arms lift me out of the water. "Is she okay?" Chip asked anxiously. "I don't know," Jeff answered. I knew that Jeff was the one holding me. I opened my eyes widely and squirted the water in his face. Chip burst out laughing. Jeff shook his head and laughed. "You're quite the prankster today," Chip said. "You know it," I replied.  We swam in the pool for a few minutes to get our muscles warmed up. The three of us raced each other on mats down a water slide. "I win," Jeff exclaimed. Chip and I won the next two rounds. We had fun on a raft ride and in the wave pool. "Let's go on a toilet bowl ride next," Chip suggested.

We walked up three big flights of stairs to get to the top of the ride. The tubes only allowed for two people at a time so Jeff volunteered to let Chip and I ride first. Chip grabbed a tube and set it in the shallow area to get in the tube. I got in the front spot and Chip went behind me. We got situated and starting moving. It went really fast and it was dark at the beginning. I screamed and laughed at the same time. Then, we got in the toilet bowl section. The slide turned multicolored. We spun in circles and dropped down the slide. It was so fun. Chip carried the tube and we trudged up the stairs to get back to the top of the ride. I got in front again and Jeff sat behind me. Chip gave us a push and we started the ride. Even though I had already experienced the ride, it was still thrilling to me. Jeff and I screamed together. We got the the colorful toilet bowl. It was suspenseful as we swirled around in it. It looked like we were going to go down the normal way but Jeff's foot touched the part of the slide right before the drop and we started going down backward. "Hang on," Jeff yelled. My hands were clenched around the tube handles. We slid down to the bottom pool quickly. I took a deep breath. "That was insane," I stated. "I couldn't have said it better myself," Jeff replied.  We took turns going down the slides again before going in the hot tub.  It was so relaxing.
