THE NEXT FEW HOURS were a bit of a brag but I didn't really mind. There was this woman who saw the five of us awake and wanted to make us some coffee so we accepted it. She was very kind, she had the heart of an angel.

Maureen, the old woman who made us the best coffee in our existence, told us her secret on how to make coffee. Her technique was ordinary but was very much different from almost everyone. I swear in my grandpa's grave that I liked her very much. She was the down-to-Earth kind. And I sure as hell liked it.

"We're almost there girls, get ready." Maureen said as she waved goodbye to us so she could get back to work.

"Okay."

After that, I only stared out the window, thinking about how my boyfriend was doing. I'll think about calling him when we get to our rooms later.

The plane landed slowly. Everybody seemed to be in a rush, well who wouldn't rush out a goddamn plane when you know you landed in Greece? It was a trick question, I thought to myself.

We carried our luggages with us as we walked out in the most normal way because we wouldn't want to trip while people you don't know are staring at you. I said goodbye to Maureen one last time as she hugged me.

I thought: She's so nice. But I don't want to end up hurting her so I'll have to forget about her now.

Searching for the restroom to freshen up a bit, wasn't actually as hard as I expected. I remembered something in literature that when you're in doubt, know your way out—wait! That was in a movie, Zombieland, I think. Nevermind.

I sighed in relief when I knew to myself that I was on the land of Europe. And Santorini was like an hour or two away until I could check something on my bucket list again. The last time I checked that list of mine was to have a relationship with a celebrity. Damn I'm so lucky. But as I think about it everytime, I still look back to that night when Harry asked me to be his girlfriend. I mean what the hell did he like about me? I don't really know.

"Sky?" a familiar but still blurry voice spoke up as I shake the thoughts out of my mind. I looked right then left but still nothing.

"Sky!" this time it shouted my name, and it felt like a guy. It couldn't be—

"Chris?" as my eyes widen in shock. What the hell is he doing here? He walked towards me, pulling me into a bone-crushing hug and I pulled away quickly. He said, "Hey there, beautiful." and I half-smiled at him and said, "Hi," and it was awkward.

He brought his soon-to-be wife. We hugged awkwardly and I whispered, "Thanks for being with him, I owe you big time." and she whispered back, "You're welcome."

After that awkward reunion with my ex, the five of us got back on looking for a good and affordable place to stay in for the whole week. Our first option was at the Royale Palace which we had to avoid immediately because it costed £700 per day. We weren't that rich like Michelle Obama. By the way, she's a boss.

In exactly two and a half hours of looking for the perfect hotel, we finally found the right place for us. We got the key. Rode the elevator and swayed our hips while listening to the elevator music. The moment when we stepped in our room, we were really surprised. Amazed. Bewildered. And so much more.

The room was super neat, your mouth will be shaped like this 'O' because of being amazed.

"Best room I've ever seen," Grey exclaimed as we laughed. It was beyond bliss. It literally took my breath away.

"So," Gail spoke up, placing down her stuff as we do the same. "what now?"

"I guess we should clean up first, then we go out." I answered as they all nodded.

After cleaning up, we went out for a bit of first impressions about Santorini. It was not that cold and not that hot here. Its definitely the perfect weather. I put on my sunglasses as we took pictures of and with each other. The background was always great, like wherever you go, you'll always get the best lighting.

"Sqaud goals!" Sophia and Jas shouted as we ended up giggling with each other. It was literally a great day so far.

We have been looking at the distance, it made us think of the boys. Except for Gail who was busy playing with her phone, probably watching vines. "I really miss him though." I said as Grey patted my back and told me he misses Mikey too.

So I told them to just have fun and forget about the boys for a moment because it was our time. This week is about girl time, a vacation, an adventure. Like I said, whatever it was, I'm always up for it.

"Bruh take a picture of me—"

"Oh sorry," like the clumsy person I am, I bumped into someone again.

"No, its,uh, my fault.." Her voice soft as a cotton candy. I looked up to her as I smiled back. She was wearing a fedora hat, sunglasses on, a Kylie Jenner outfit on as well. She looked gorgeous.

We both stood up, shaking our hands, and apologizing to each other again.

"I'm Skylar.. these are my wonderful girlfriends," I said as I introduced them to her. Of course they awkwardly smiled at her.

"Hey,uhm, I'm Shey." She answered, smiling warmly at us. "I'm sorry again for my clumsiness," she said as we all laughed, and I said, "Nah. 'sal fine." she shook her head and said, "That's what they all say." she coughed. "You girls on vacation?" She asked.

"Yeah, for a week."

"Me too,"

"Oh, who're you with?"

"Just me." then she half-smiled.

"Oh you could join us, y'know?"

"Really?"

"Yeah." the five of us said in unison. Making all of us burst in laughter.

I think she was trustworthy. By her deep brown eyes, her long blonde hair, and how she smiled, I think. But she could use some company though. The first rule in Santorini is that you cannot be alone. The more, the merrier.

I think this week's gonna be fun. I just hope we get along with her. Stay nice, Sky. You can do this. I sure hope I can.
