Alex's POV

The cab smelled something like dirty feet and moldy cheese. To make it worse -if that's even possible- Jasmine, me and Justine were all squished in the back while Isabelle had the front seat with the air conditioning blowing at a comfortable pace towards her pale makeup caked face. I'm going to strangle that girl before we even get to the hotel. I wish I was kidding, but I'm really not.

"I can't believe you and the Joe Sugg shared a moment. I'm sorry I was too busy watching the sky and sleeping to notice much. Even though he was right beside me." Izz looks behind and gives a small smile before a horn honked and the cab jerked sharply to the left and she almost face planted to the floor by my feet.

"Very sorry." The driver picks up the speed and I feel like I'm gonna be sick.

"Are we almost there?!" Justine is rubbing Jasmine's back trying to calm her down.

"I have to find a different way in girls. There must be some sort of special event going on, you're lucky you bought a room when you did." The driver - who's name I learned when I was looking up and noticed a name tag on the sun visor- Henry smiles, showing dimples and big white teeth.

We come to an abrupt stop and my head slams into the back of the passenger seat.

"We're here. " Henry says in a singsong voice.

"How much? Izz asks in an annoyed voice shooting me a concerned look

"78.45" he says without blinking

Izz's eyes go wide and he gives her a sympathetic look.

"45 flat" he smiles and Izz gets out her portion of our savings and takes off 2 $20's and a $10.

"Keep the change " we all get out of the beat up car and grab our bags from the trunk. I look up at the tall ancient building and my excitement ties my stomach in knots. I grip my 2 bags tighter and climb up the stairs, trying not to fall and make a fool of myself on the first day being here.

I open the doors to the grand entrance and set down my bag. 0.63 seconds later I tripped over them. I heard Justine laughing and I felt my face go crimson red. If I could sink into the carpet right now I would.

"Need a little help there love?" An all too familiar voice asked kneeling beside me.

As if the situation couldn't get any worse.

"Thanks" I replied my ears going hot.

I was pulled up with a jolt, my face mere centimeters from those ocean blue eyes. I know him. Then i realize with a start and my heart in in my throat. Those eyes belong to the one and only Joe Sugg.

"Gotta watch out for those moving luggage carriers. They're a doosie" he chuckles lightly getting those crinkles by his eyes that I love so much.

"Yeah." I say my voice wavering. "I should go see if my friends need any help checking in."

"Until we meet again." he kisses my hand and starts laughing

He holds my gaze for a moment before smirking and walking back over to Caspar. That cheeky bastard. I pick up my bags and pray that I don't die before the end of March break.

"How was lover boy?"Jasmine asked
"Did you get his number?"she looked excited

"Ask her some better questions." Justine cleared her throat

"When are you gonna fuck him?" She starts humping me from the side and I give her a sideways glance to fuck off.

"Guys. We have a problem."Izz holds up a room key. I don't see the problem though.

"The hotel is over booked and they booked our room to someone else!" She grabs her luggage and starts to walk.

"Wait so we don't have a room or do we have to share one with some strangers?" Justine struggles to pull her bags behind us.

"We better be sharing" I try not to trip again down the hallway towards ours and whoever we're sharing with room.

Izz holds the key to the door and we hear a beep and the handle goes green.

"Cool." I mutter under my breath.

We go inside and see 2 luggage bags, but no people. I start to feel like an intruder even though I know that we really aren't. We set our bags down by the side of the front door in case this goes wrong. I wander down through the huge ass room while the others try to figure out who the two mystery people are. I find my way to the bathroom it's nice and modern with a large corner shower and gray walls. I look on the counter and see Axe cologne.

"CAN YOU THREE COME HER PLEASE?" I yell down the hall picking up the bottle and examining it.

They all come running in probably thinking something was wrong.

"They're guys." I say still not looking up.

"Who?" Jasmine asks confused.

"The two people we're rooming with." I show them the bottles before setting them down and walking back out into the living room.

"We should probably count our money to see where we're at." Justine may not be the smartest, but she does have some good ideas.

"Okay clear off the coffee table." I say as we start to take off the random pamphlets.

I take out the twenties and my from my mini wallet.

"I have 240ish including the money from my dad" I toss it lightly on the table in front of me

"$300"Justine says without blinking

"200 bucks"Jasmine looks at the pile that's starting to build up.

"Give me a second to count this" Isabelle pulls out a cigarette and lights it. She then offers one to Jasmine, but she turns it down so Justine takes it.

"I don't think you can smoke in here" I say taking out my phone to see if there's open WiFi here. I just get the middle finger from the both and a waft of smoke in my face from Justine.

"$2780 plus my brothers credit card I may have stole I suggest we use it before he notices." She throws her pile on and its almost topples over.

"Holy. Shit." I say biting my lip.

I pull out a calculator to add it all up.

"3520 macaroons." I say my eyes growing wide.

"How the fuck did you have so much Izz?" Justine asks putting out her smoke as Isabelle does the same.

"I've been wanting to leave for a while." She give weak smile before rounding up all the money and putting it into a bag.

"If you take money, write it on... This piece of paper." She takes a hotel notebook and rips out one of the pages.

She starts to say something else but we here loud talking then someone rattling the room key. The handle turns and the two boys walking in, freezing in their tracks.
