Dancing with the Beast

4. Order some champagne

The rest of the week went by quite quickly. I had worked a lot on new videos and met the girls for a couple of drinks. Now I was packing my suitcase for my trip to North Carolina. I will stay in Greenville for a week to teach the boys the choreography and help them with their video. Jimmy had already sent me the data for the flight and a driver would pick me up and take me to the hotel. I looked at the clock: 10am. My flight will take off at 2pm so I still had some time left. After I finished packing, I took a cab to the airport.

After a 4-hours flight I finally arrived in Greenville. I left the airport with my suitcase and searched for the driver outside. A man in a suit with slightly grey hair held up a sign with my name on it. I went over to him. "Miss Silva?" he asked me. I nodded and he helped me to stow my luggage in the car next to him. He opened the door to the passenger seat for me and I sat down. I felt a bit like someone famous and I was kind of uncomfortable with the whole thing. A cab would have been enough. The driver sat down in the driver's seat and started the engine. After a 20-minute drive he stopped in front of an expensive looking hotel and opened the door for me once again. He handed me my luggage and wished me a nice evening, to which I returned.
I entered the hotel lobby and checked in at the reception desk. Once I received the key, I said goodbye to the nice receptionist, who wished me a nice stay. I took the elevator and searched for my room. After I f found the right room I opened the door with my key. My jaw dropped when I saw the room. Almost everything looked more expensive than the entire interior of my apartment. I looked at the bathroom and discovered a rain shower and a bathtub with whirlpool jets. This hotel had to be so expensive. I was uncomfortable that someone I barely knew had spent so much money on me. In disbelief I laid down on the king size bed that stood in the middle of my hotel room. A cheap hotel would have been enough for me. My phone buzzed and pulled me out of my thoughts. It was a message from Jimmy. We had exchanged numbers a few days ago so we didn't have to keep contacting each other via Instagram.

Jimmy: Hey, just wanted to check if you landed safely and arrived at the hotel :)

Keira: Yes, thanks. I'm still speechless because of the room. You didn't have to pay so much...

Jimmy: Trust me, the boys can be pretty exhausting, so you'll need a place like this to recover. ;) Especially Chandler can be a major pain in the ass. So feel free to order some champagne and enjoy your last quiet evening. xD CU tomorrow

Keira: Now I'm scared. xD cya :)

After our little chat I decided to call Mel via Facetime. "Hey girl, what's up?" she answered the call. "Just arrived at the hotel room and this is insane!" I told her while giving her a room tour.  "Wow, I should have come with you." She replied with excitement. "Mel, I'm feeling quite uncomfortable with this. This is way too expensive" I sighed. "K, for real: Treat yourself to some luxury, you deserve it. Besides, you have a tough week ahead of you." "Maybe you're right, Mel" I answered. "I know" Mel said. "You know that you are-" "A pain in the ass, I know" She interrupted me and we laughed. We chatted a bit more and then hung up. I decided to go downstairs to the hotel restaurant to eat something. 

Back in my room I started unpacking my suitcase to feel a little more like home and then got ready for bed. Exhausted I laid down on the big comfy bed, opened the YouTube app on my phone and started watching some MrBeast videos, slowly falling asleep.
