A Twist Of Fate [3]

Chapter 8

I stepped out of the car and looked across the wooden footbridge that led to our cabin. My mouth dropped open in awe as the beautiful, modern building greeted my eyes. A towering, angled wonder with huge windows all over that would allow us to forever see the beautiful forest around us and a cosy veranda surrounded the whole property where I already knew we would be spending most of our time. The cabin was supported by long beams up from the ground, meaning we were spending spring break high up in the trees and there was something about that that made me feel incredibly excited.

'This is awesome,' Cal murmured, as he moved beside me and glanced up at it too. 'Tori did good.'

'She did fucking fantastic!' I laughed, and we moved to grab our luggage from the car, both of us having the exact same thought of wanting to be first in to choose the best room.

A car beeped loudly and pulled up behind us, a squealing Penny hanging out the back window waving at us. 'This is fucking amazing!'

I chuckled as I watched her whole face light up and Georgie's head popped up out of the sunroof. 'This is a fucking dream!'

Cal nudged me. 'We need to hurry if we want first pick on a room.'

I nodded in agreement as their car stopped and they piled out of the backseat along with Charlie, followed by Tori and Sadie climbing out of the front.

'Okay, somebody else is riding backseat with those two on the way home; I'm deadly fucking serious!' Charlie complained, storming around to the trunk.

Georgie gasped dramatically. 'What the fuck is that supposed to mean? We made the drive fun for everyone!'

'Listening to Taylor Swift's whole fucking album is already not my idea of fun, but you singing the whole fucking album along with her is my idea of hell!' Charlie yelled.

Cal couldn't hold his laughter in. 'Dude, chill; you're here now.'

'I didn't see you two as Taylor Swift fans,' I said to Tori and Sadie.

'We're not,' Tori laughed.

'But seeing Charlie suffer was worth it,' Sadie finished.

I hoped this trip would be a chance to get to know Sadie better. I hadn't liked her at first, heck I hadn't liked Tori either, but Tori was a friend now and I wanted her girlfriend to be too.

'Let's get the fucking party started!' I deep, booming voice cried out in the distance followed by the heavy bass of loud music and the screech of tyres as Brodie pulled up and leaned out of the window. 'Who's ready to get fucked up for spring break?!'

Georgie and Penny raised their hands and everyone else rolled their eyes but smiled and raised theirs too - a moody Charlie being the exception.

Brodie clambered out of the vehicle and walked around to open the door for Olivia. As she stepped out, I couldn't help but admire how stunning she was. So natural with her fair skin and thick locks of hair. She was a tiny, slim individual but it suited her so well. I guessed in a way she did kind of resemble me, but I had to admit, she was certainly prettier.

'Everyone's here,' Cal said, grabbing my bag that I'd dropped to the floor and locking up the car. 'Let's go pick a fucking room!' I followed him as he bolted to cross the footbridge.

'Oh no you don't!' Georgie cried. 'Penny they're gona steal the best room; move your fucking ass!'

I ran as fast as I could across the bridge, laughter all around me as I felt Georgie and Penny gaining on us. Cal grabbed the door handle and rattled it hard. 'Fuck, it's locked!'
