Fool's Gold

Chapter 18

I kept on procrastinating my packing. To be honest I wasn't even bothered to do it but unfortunately it was a necessity. Three days before Nick and I's marvellous trip to Hawaii I decided that I would at least make a start on my packing. Nick said that he would too. We blasted some music and started packing some clothes. It wasn't a great idea though because whenever Nick and I are in each other's company and we are trying to get something done, we seem to always get distracted. After packing half of our things we were just dancing around and singing at the top of our lungs.

The days leading up to our holiday were even more amazing than every other day. Nick and I's relationship seemed to be flourishing and it was getting better by the day. Before we knew it, it was the day before we were leaving for Hawaii. The excitement was overwhelming. Nick and I had decided to spend the night with a couple of friends over. I obviously invited Onika, Lexi and Skye. Nick invited his best mates Jason, Nate and Harry.

Once everyone had arrived we decided to order some pizza. The delivery guy brought it within five minutes,
"Who's ready to eat some pizza?" Harry yelled in his deep voice. He brought it into the living room and placed it on the coffee table. I was sitting next to Nick, just like I usually do, but I noticed something out of the ordinary. Skye was sitting exceptionally close to Nate. This made me think that there could be something going on there. I smirked at the thought of Skye and Nate being together. They were the complete opposites. Nate was eccentric and outgoing, whereas Skye was quieter and more reserved, but aside from that she was still a really fun person once you got to know her. Although they were quite different it didn't really matter, opposites attract.

After finishing eating dinner we decided to watch a movie. The only problem that evolved from this was choosing the movie itself,
"We have to watch American Sniper! It's the best movie I have ever watched," Jason screamed. No one really cared what we watched except for him and Lexi,
"We need to watch The Heat though. It is the most hilarious movie ever and comedy movies are great," Lexi said, protesting against what Jason had just said. In the end everyone decided that Nick and I could choose what movie to watch, considering that we were leaving for Hawaii the next day. We chose Dumb and Dumber. Although it was an older movie it was still really funny. We started to watch it and we ended up in fits of laughter after only three minutes of the movie. Nate was getting bored though and it was quite easy to tell,
"Guys, I don't really want to watch a movie. How about we play truth or dare instead?" My stomach dropped. Like every other game of truth or dare, this was not going to end well.
