"I feel like I haven't seen you since forever," I whispered. Jacob is spread out across the bed, his head and arms resting on my legs.

The boys have collaborated with other tik-tokers all week like the Mian Twins, the Amp World, and Heidi Klum. Heidi was kind enough to give us tickets to the premiere of Germany's Next Top Model next month and I'm beyond excited because I'll finally be able to visit the boys' hometown.

"Crazy week," was all I understood from his mumbling. His head lifted, "I'm glad it's over because you know what that means." I start smiling as his lips slowly find mine.

"I-can-not-wait-to-be-in-Italy- with you," I say in between kisses.

Claudia and I were casually talking about taking a couple's trip when Tim and Jacob overheard our conversation and suggested we go to Italy for a few days to end our trip to Switzerland.

"My bags are packed. I started doing yours, but I didn't know what you wanted to bring. So, it's mostly socks and boxers that I packed for you," I said, which made him laugh.

"You're perfect," he said.

"Me? I was looking over the pictures Frederic took of you," I turned my screen in his direction. "You're the perfect one, look at this!"

"Frederic is a great photographer," he replied. "Yeah. He's such a great photographer that he convinced me to shoot for him!"

"You haven't shown me those pictures yet!"

"Where are you going?" Jacob asked as he walked out of the shower and into my room. "I promised Bene we'd watch a few episodes of Attack on Titan before we leave."

Jacob was about to protest, but I pointed over to his empty bags and he nodded. "Okay, okay."

"Bene! You started without me!" I run towards the couch and jump near him. "Sorry!"

During the third episode, Luis joined us. He looked as captivated as we were. Tim appeared, but didn't bother to stay because he hates watching anime.

"How long are you staying in Italy?" Luis suddenly asked. Bene and I both looked at him.

"Four days, the next three we're going to Switzerland. Claudia booked some rooms at a ski resort. Why?"

"Oh, just wondering how much time I'll have of tranquility," he joked. "Haha, very funny, Luis. I know you'll miss me," I say.

Luis rolled his eyes, whispering something under his breath in german. "Vergiss nicht, dass Angelina mir Deutsch beigebracht hat," I said.

"Wow, Angelina's a great teacher!" Bene exclaimed. I nodded, "Jacob has been helping. Anyways, it's getting late. I'll see you boys in a week." We need to be at the airport at three in the morning to catch the plane at four-thirty. I hug the both of them, before going off to bed.
