The Next Morning...

Riley POV

*Beep Beep Beep

"Stupid alarm..."

I reached over and slammed the clock with my hand. How many times had I hit that thing today? I looked over. Too many!

"8:30!? I'm leaving in 30 minutes!" I shouted, sitting up.

I heard a knock on my door, so I got up to answer it.

"Riker!?"

"Good morning! Wait... Why are you still wearing your pajamas?"

I pulled Riker into my room and shut the door.

"I swear, I didn't mean to get up this late! I was just so tired, and then I looked at the clock, and-"

"Riley, calm down. You still have 25 minutes. I'll help you."

Riker pulled me into a hug.

"Thanks. I don't know what I would do without you."

"Awww. I love you so much! Now go get dressed! What can I do to help?"

"Take this backpack, and put all of that into it," I said, pointing at a pile of stuff I had gotten together last night for the trip.

Riker got started on packing while I got dressed. When I came back to my room, Riker was all finished.

"Here," Riker said handing me my backpack.

"Thanks. What time is it?"

"Almost 9:00."

"Should we head over to your house then?"

"Yup."

"Ok."

I gave hugs to my parents before leaving. I also gave them my phone, which I wasn't too happy about. When we got to Riker's, Rydel was yelling at Ross to hurry up. The 3 of us put our stuff in Riker's car. A few minutes later, Ross came running out the door carrying his stuff.

"Ok, who's sitting where?" Ross asked.

"Well Riker's driving. Why don't we let Riley sit in the front with him?" Rydel said to Ross.

"Ok."

"Thanks," I said, getting into the car.

We only drove for about 30 minutes, and then we arrived at the mountain we would be climbing.

"Ok, me and Rydel combined our stuff into one bag, so I'll carry the tents and sleeping bags, and Rydel, you can carry our conjoined bag. And then Ross and Riley, you guys can just carry your own bags," said Riker.

I put on my backpack, and followed Riker to the trail entrance.

"Are you guys ready?" Riker asked.

"Yup," we all said together.

"Ok, let's go!"

Later...

Riley POV

"Are we going to stop for lunch?" Ross asked.

"No. We're going to eat while we walk. Unless Riley wants to stop," said Riker.

"Why if Riley wants to!?" Ross asked.

"Because she's still... recovering..."

"Riley, please say you want to stop! I need a break. My legs are killing me!" Ross pleaded.
