"Hey, Sam!" Colby called out into Sam's apartment.
"Up here!" Sam answered from the loft. "Can you grab my drink off of the counter before you come up?"
"I got you, brother." Colby grabbed the drink, grabbed a can of soda for himself, and climbed the stairs. "Ooo, did we pick dates yet?" Colby asked, seeing Sam on the AirBnB website.
They were planning their annual Kansas boys vacation to Hawaii and a lot had changed in the last year. Alex had gotten quite serious with his girlfriend. Sam was thinking about asking Kat to move in with him when the boys got a new house. Colby and you had been officially dating for almost 6 months. Even Nate had been "with" a girl for almost the last year.
"That's the thing" Sam said. "There are loads of open dates for the trip, but they're all sooner than we thought they'd be. The best deals and weather all seem to be in just a few months."
"So? That's fine, dude." Colby shrugged it off.
"I'll text Alex and Nate." Sam said, grabbing his phone.
"Wait." Colby stopped him, putting his hand over Sam's iphone that was sitting on his desk. "I have a question. It's totally okay to say no, but I wanted to get your thoughts."
"Okaaaayyyyy." Sam drawled out, wondering what Colby was all jittery about.
"Hear me out. Kat has never gone on a vacation with you unless you count being dragged to wedding events and no one counts that...This is the first year we're all with someone." Colby explained. "Am I breaking the rules by asking if we want to bring the girls?"
Sam looked like he was considering it. "I mean, as long as we still spend part of it hanging out with just the guys, I think it would be great."
"Of course, of course. Y/n and Kat are practically joined at the hip now-a-days. Alex's girl is super chill and I'm sure Nate wouldn't date someone crazy. The girls can spend a few days together while we go do dumb Kansas boys shit on our own." Colby said, relieved Sam didn't shut his idea down straight away.
"Why don't we bring it up to the guys and see what they say?" Sam looked up at Colby and shrugged.
Nate and Alex seemed happy with the idea. A date was picked. The tickets were booked. A huge AirBnB was rented. Sam kept talking about how this trip felt more 'grown up'. Like a family vacation.
"Wake up, baby" you gently shook Colby. You knew this was going to be a long day because the two of you had gone to bed exactly....2 hours ago. "Colby" you laughed, climbing on top of him and pressing kiss after kiss to his face. Even though his body stayed unmoving, you could see him trying to hide a smile. "I know you're awake, you brat." You went to climb off of him.
His strong arms pinned you against his body as he opened one eye to stare up at you. "I think I might need a little more waking up."
"You're such a dork" you laughed, connecting your lips in a more passionate kiss. "Come on. We need to get our shit to Sam's so we can order an Uber."
"I'm so stoked to see Nate" Colby said from the closet. "We haven't seen him since you moved out here." He was looking for something that would be comfortable to travel in, but you had already stolen his favorite hoodie.
"So am I!" you agreed, moving to pick something else for Colby to wear. "I haven't seen him in well over a year, actually. Wear this one." You said, throwing him a hoodie you thought he looked hotter than usual in.
"You really like this one, don't you?" He teased, pulling on a cut-up tank top and then the hoodie.
"I mean, I'd prefer you to just walk around naked all the time" you smirked, slipping your fingers under the hem of his tank top. "But this is a close second place."
