Sarah and I moved around the room in panic as we tried to pack everything so we could meet the others before it was time to go because we still wanted to have enough time to hang out with them. We knew that we'd see everyone throughout our trip but we also wanted to have a chance to be with them here.

I laughed as Sarah threw another pair of stockings in my direction, almost hitting the side of my face. "Sarah!" I squealed as she started to throw a few of her candles.

She looked at me confused when I held up the candles and widened her eyes before coming forward and taking them so she could put them in her luggage instead.

"If someone takes this from me..." Sarah started as she pointed towards her candles, crystals and incense holders that were in the luggage before taking a breath with narrowed brows, "I swear I'll hang them."

I sighed in amusement before taking a few of her items and putting them into mine. "Here. Hopefully if it happens then you'll have some in my luggage just in case," I comforted watching as she put a thumbs up in my direction before finishing up her packing.

When we were done, Sarah and I took our luggage's down to the bus and placed them in so we would have to do it afterwards. She then decided that she'd head to Ruben's room while I went to see Ayesha and Carson instead.

Knocking on their door, I was a bit astonished to notice that Ayesha who opened the door, seemed shaken as she walked away from the door and pointed at Carson who seemed on the verge of a breakdown.

Carson sniffled as I took a seat beside her before rubbing her arm in comfort.

"What happened Carson?" I asked genuinely concerned ignoring Ayesha's muttering of disbelief as she crossed her arms over her chest from across us. Carson shook her head as if she didn't want to say and only leaned her head onto my shoulder instead of verbally mentioning what caused her to react the way she had at the moment.

Ayesha groaned before throwing her arms up in the air as she let out a exaggerated scream. "She accidentally ripped her cheer uniform!"

I looked at her confused and watched as Ayesha took a step forward, opening Carson's luggage before holding it up as she demonstrated the slit caused in the top.

Smiling, I turned to Carson and started to frown when I noticed her upset at seeing the uniform that she had tried to hide. Ayesha deemed this as an opportunity to continue, "She didn't let me fix it. Claiming that she had to live the consequences. Could you please tell her that it isn't that serious?"

Carson shook her head fast as I grinned at her, running a hand through her hair softly, "Carson she's right... It'll look as good as new."

Watching as she started to pout, I glanced at Ayesha who seemed as if she wanted to laugh but stopped herself and instead turned around and let herself finish with packing as she even helped Carson with her own seeing as she was not making movement.

"How about this?" I started as I slowly stood up, "I could ask Brooke if she could fix it since she's the one who did yours... It might come out the exact same as it was before?"

Carson nodded with a smile starting show as she let her dimples demonstrate themselves before I laughed.

Ayesha sent an appreciative smile in my direction as I nodded in response before taking the uniform and walking out of the room.

I headed to Brooke's room that she shared with Chelsea before knocking softly, and walking inside when I heard the familiar sweet voice telling me that it was alright for me to then come in now.

"Hi Brooke," I greeted placing a peck on her lips as I watched Chelsea take her luggage out of the room mentioning that she was going to check in with someone, leaving Brooke and I alone.

Brooke smiled before eyeing the uniform with a curious glance, "What's that for?"

"Carson was wondering if you could fix this for a bit quick if it's okay?" I asked hoping it would be but wouldn't push if she didn't want to work on it at all.

She let her eyes soften before zipping up her luggage and placing it beside the door. Brooke turned back and gently took the uniform from my hands before starting to work on it as she let out a hum. I sat in the chair across from her and watched as she seemed deep in thought for a few moments.

"Could I ask you something Grace?" Brooke asked as I nodded with a smile urging her to continue to talk. "I was wondering... if I could be around you as we traveled?"

Furrowing brows in response, I laughed, "Brooke, we're together... I'd be surprised if we weren't together at some point."

"I want to be around you..." Brooke confessed as I stared at her with a confused smile. She sighed before continuing, "Seriously Grace, I want to be around you wherever we go. And I just wanted to be sure that you wanted the same thing as I did..."

I let out an unneeded breath at her admittance before moving forward and getting a hold onto both of her hands bringing them closer as I watched her with a soft and tender look, "Brooke... Of course I'm going to want to be around you. I feel the exact same and nothing is going to change that, okay?"

I paused and waited for her to answer. She continued to stare at me as I pressed a kiss onto her hand. "Okay..." She finally said with a small laugh before holding up Carson's uniform top. "I'm finished!" She then added with an excited tone as I laughed and helped her up so we could head out.

"It's perfect. Alright let's get the hell out of here then before we get left behind," I said helping her with her luggage as we met up with the others.
