Buenos Aires - Argentina
Lizzie's POV
After flying for around 10 hours, we finally landed in Argentina. A country I've never been to before. I'm looking forward to getting to know new countries and cultures.
When we got off the plane, the summer heat was already upon us and I was very happy to be wearing shorts.
We were all pretty tired, so we were glad when we finally arrived at the hotel.

The rooms were huge, we even had a couch with a TV, a huge bathroom with a bathtub and an even bigger bedroom that was open to the living room.

I threw myself straight onto the bed.
"I think I need a nap first" says y/n and throws herself next to me.

The time difference is just kicking in, so it doesn't take long for us to fall asleep. We spend the rest of the day just sleeping in the hotel room.

...

When we wake up the next morning, the sun is shining into the room. I look at the clock. 9:14. Then I turn to the other side and see that y/n has just come in from the balcony. Until that moment, I didn't even know we had one. It was too dark for that yesterday.

"The weather is great! I really want to go to the beach, what do you say?"
"Sounds great" I reply.
I love the beach.
I love summer.

"Okay, perfect, I'll ask the others"
After typing a bit on her cell phone, she turns to me.
"The others are in, we'll meet downstairs in the lobby at 10. We'll have to see if we can find anything for breakfast on the way. I'm starving" she says. You can really feel her joy.

"Okay, perfect, I'll take a shower first" I say. After I get out of the hot shower, I put on my bikini and an airy dress.
"So, here are towels" I say as I come out of the bathroom and see that y/n is also changed.
"Perfect, I've packed some water for us here"
"Sunscreen and then I think we have everything"

As we make our way to the beach with the others, the sun is shining in the blue sky. I love this weather and the thought of the beach makes me even happier.

We find a bakery on the way and take our things with us until we find a nice spot on the beach. The beach is already pretty full, but it's still pleasant and not too crowded.
We lay down the blankets and eat our sandwiches first.
"Okay, into the water" Luke calls and we all strip down to our bathing suits.
"Are you coming?" asks Ethan.
"Later" Maya replies, then looks at me.
"I'll stay with Maya for now" I reply and the others all run off like little kids and jump into the sea until you can only see their heads.
"They're like little kids sometimes" says Maya. I had to laugh because that was exactly what I was thinking. I pull my dress over my head too and lie on my stomach, feeling the sun's rays on my back.

"I could get used to this life" I say and turn my head in Maya's direction, who has also laid down on her stomach.
"Yes, you can't complain"

"Can I ask you something?" asks Maya.
"Sure"
"Is there anything serious going on with you two?"
"Me and y/n? No"
"Oh well"
"Why?"
"I'm just asking, you seem so familiar with each other, it doesn't seem like you're just sleeping together"
"We're friends, good friends who just have a bit of fun together"
"Are there no feelings involved?"
"Y/n made it clear to me from the start that she doesn't want a relationship"
"That wasn't my question" says Maya.
"I don't think so" I answer honestly.
"She took you on tour with her"
"I'm sure she does that all the time"
"No, that's the point. She's never done anything like that. I mean, they haven't been on tour much and they've never been on a world tour, but she's never taken a woman on tour. She seems so different at the moment... in a positive way"
"Oh really? I didn't know that"
