"Baby, wake up. We're here." Rafe whispers, caressing my head gently. I groan, sitting up. "Hi babe." I say, pulling the blanket off of me.

The sun makes me very drowsy, that's probably why I fell asleep.

I look around the car. It's empty, except for me and Rafe. "Where are the others?" I asks, sleepily.

"They've went to get some Starbucks." He says, moving my hair away from my face.

"Why didn't you go, Rafey?" I ask him, curiously. "I didn't want to wake you up.." he says, grinning shyly.

"Awh.. thank you, babe." I say, pressing a light kiss on his lips.

He stayed here with me so he wouldn't disturb me, he's so sweet. ——————————————————————————
We get out of the car to stretch our legs, taking a stroll around. "So, school's starting next week." I say, starting a conversation.

"Yeah, I'm going to focus on my academics even more this year to get earn more credits for college." Rafe says, tucking his hands in his pockets.

"I guess I should too, I have pretty good grades but my mom says I could do better." I tell him, tightening my ponytail.

"College can be stressful. When you're close to actually graduating, that's when the real stress happens." Rafe says, making a point.

"Yeah, it's hard not to stress about it. I mean, everyone stresses about it so at least we aren't the only ones." I say, consoling myself.

The future can be a scary thing, I know I'll be fine, but sometimes I'm doubtful. ——————————————————————————
"We should unload the trunk." I tell him. He gets out
and gives me hand to step out. We unload the suitcases.

These suitcases are very heavy, did they pack their whole house in here?

I roll them to the front door of the cottage, I see the rest of the group, walking back to the cottage from afar.

They wave at me, I wave back. They arrive to the front door. "Morning, sunshine." Sarah says, fixing my hair.

She hands me my favourite drink, the mango dragonfruit refresher with lemonade.

I'm really thirsty after my nap, it's nice to have something refreshing to drink. ——————————————————————————
She hands Rafe his iced coffee, John B looks at the exterior of the cottage. "Holy shit. This cottage is massive, mads." He says, admiring it.

The cottage has a very modern style, similar to my house in the outer banks.

"Wait until you see the inside." I say, excitedly.
I grab the keys from my pocket and unlock the door. We bring all our suitcases in and I give them a tour.

My aunt was a famous actress. Her mom gave her the house to share with my mom when she retired.

There are two queen size beds in three of the rooms and in the last two room, they have one big king bed.

The rooms look like a five star hotel, if not even better.

I chose the room with one king sized bed for me and Rafe, since we have already slept with each other before. ——————————————————————————
Sarah and John B chose a room with two separate beds. Kiara and Jj chose the room with two separate beds aswell.

All of the rooms are massive. They all contain a walk in closet and a bathroom.

We all start unpacking our clothes, organizing them to our liking.
