three

Sunlight kissed my eyelids, waking me up from my deep slumber. Lazily opening my eyes my nose was greeted by the delicious smell of food. It took me a moment to realize I was not in my home but in a villa, in Mexico for Gabe's birthday. The bed was comfortable but not as comfortable as my bed back in Atlanta. I ran my hand down my face as I slowly rose out of bed. Once my foot touched the cold floor I began to do my morning stretches. It's important to stretch after you wake up in the morning to loosen your body up for the day. It takes the tension s as mf stress from laying down in questionable positions. After my morning stretch I headed into the en suite bathroom to prepare my self for the day.

I turned the shower on to the hottest temperature possible and began to brush my teeth. We all got to Mexico pretty late last night as everyone had final projects to finish up along with waiting for Nevaeh's best friend to fly down from Philadelphia. Naomi was also good friends with Gabe so he invited her along with Nevaeh's other friend she made in Atlanta — Jahaziel. Jahaziel was a nurse who originally came from Dominican Republic when she was very young. She and Nevaeh actual had a lot of similarities : short, long curly hair and very pretty faces. Except Jahaziel's hair was honey brown complimenting her hazel eyes. She was also a lot slimmer than Nevaeh who was very thick at her bottom half. They were the only three girls on the trip which was fine with all of because outside of Rebecca we didn't have any other female friends.

The flight to here was relatively easy and quick thanks to Wilkes & Sons Industrial Co. private jet. My father usually doesn't let us use the jet for personal trips but since it was Gabriel — who he loved like a son — he let us fly on it to Cabo. Everyone was mostly asleep besides Nevaeh and I who still had some work to do. We whispered amongst ourselves about what we were working on and throwing Gabe a surprise birthday dinner. I even got to know a little bit more of her life since eighteen until last year. We didn't speak much then which bummed me out as she was really a cool person to talk to. We eventually did fall asleep and was awaken by the flight attendant.

I was infatuated with the idea of getting closer to Nevaeh. Was it sexual? Most likely but I still let those fantasies dance among my thoughts as I laid down at night. A gorgeous girl she truly was and I can see why everyone loved her and even why Chase thinks he has a chance with her.

After my shower, I dressed in some basketball shorts and threw on a black tank top. My hair was still wet but I figured to just let it air dry. I usually keep my hair neatly styled but since I was on vacation it was better to let my sandy blonde curls hang free. I made my way to the kitchen where the delicious smell was coming from. I was greeted by our private chef for the week — Guillermo — the twins and Jahaziel, "Good morning y'all."

"Good morning ." The three of them greeted in unison.

I sat at the dining table that sat twelve that had my back facing the stunning view of the Pacific Ocean. The chef put a plate down of bacon, eggs, fresh chopped up fruit and a waffle in front of me. I thanked him, asking for a glass of water.

"Everyone still sleep?" I took a bite of the food.

Luca shrugged his toned shoulders, "I have no clue. I just woke Marco up so we could go on a run."

I sucked my teeth, "Why didn't you wake me up? I would've went with y'all."

"We tried man you were knocked the fuck out." Marco chuckled as Chase and Naomi emerged from the hallway that I just came from.

"Good morning everyone." Naomi said to us all as she sat on the same side of the table as Marco leaving a chair open in between them. Naomi was a bit taller than the two girls, on the slimmer side. Her skin was brown matching the shade of her almond eyes. She had braids in that also had curls intertwined with the braids. The girls told me they were called "goddess braids" and they surely made her look like one.
