Leighton decides to get up and get ready as the first rays of sunlight hit her bed through the window. Silently humming along, she listens to some music as she puts on her bathing suit and packs a few things into her bag.

The only thing missing is her sunglasses, but she realizes she hasn't seen them since yesterday.

While searching through her backpack, she accidentally knocks over Whitney's purse, sitting next to her, and curses the fact that she is so close to Whitney and Mabel's bed.

When she checks on them, Mabel's hand is wrapped tightly around Whitney's frame and Whitney's head is resting on her shoulder. Luckily they're still deep in sleep and haven't shifted from their current position.

Leighton grins at the sight and quickly snaps a photo before leaving the room without continuing her search for her sunglasses.

The cool air immediately hits her face, but Leighton doesn't mind in the warm sun. She enjoys the light breeze as she walks along the path to the beach and picks up her pace when the sea comes into view.

It doesn't take long for her to place her bag on a beach towel and get changed before she heads for the water.
Sighing, she feels her body relax as she swims away from the shallower water and further into the ocean.

She always enjoyed vacations with her family at the seaside and had fond memories of them. Nico and she would spend the day building sandcastles, and swimming was always a good way to escape her mother's critical gaze.

When she felt her mother's body insecurities rubbing off on her, she simply jumped into the water and dived as deep as she could to get some quiet time.

It always seemed to work, and after a long day in the ocean, she didn't even pay attention to her mother's warnings that her skin would get too tan and she would develop wrinkles if she wasn't careful.

She actually intended not to get her hair wet, but Leighton ditches that plan, unties her hairstyle and wraps the hairband around her wrist. After a while, her eyes adjust to the sight underwater before she can actually see everything around her.

The bottom is dotted with a few water plants, increasing more and more the further she swims out into the sea. Leighton giggles as a small fish quickly dives behind a plant as she gets nearer and takes one last look around before swimming back to the surface.

"Good morning, Leigh," Whitney greets her with a smile as Leighton enters her room.

"Good morning to you too," Leighton responds, looking down at Whitney's clothes.

"I see you're ready to go?" she asks and Whitney nods.

"I am, but you guys still have some time. I just wanted to get breakfast for us all to take with us," Whitney explains.

"Thanks Whit. That's sweet," says Leighton, spotting the empty double bed.

"Don't mention it," Whitney says, grabbing her purse as she heads for the door.

"Mabel's in the bathroom, by the way," she says before she leaves, and Leighton goes to her suitcase to pick out an outfit for the day.

"Hey Whitney, did you see my... Oh, hey Leighton," Mabel says as she spots her and grins.

"Hey, to you too," Leighton smiles.

"Whit went to get us breakfast, but maybe I can help. What are you looking for?" asks Leighton.

"Right. I have this blue shirt with a surfer design that I wanted to wear, but I can't find it,' says Mabel and Leighton picks up a piece of clothing from the chair next to her.
