I wake up to a loud bang in the room over, followed by some shouting. Wait, what is going on? I sit up an rub my eyes, hoping that I'm asleep and this is a dream. Unfortunately, it isn't. Preston wraps an arm around my waist as if to pull me back down, but I stretch my right wing out and smack him in the face with it until he sits up as well.

"What's going on?" He mumbles, pulling me into his chest. Dang, he's warm and the air just so isn't... sighing, I shrug and walk over to the door to open it. Footsteps rush over to the other side and push it open, right into my face. I fall over and glare up at Twi, who grins sheepishly at me before grabbing me arm and tugging me down the hallway to Unicity's room. We run in there to discover things being thrown everywhere. When I mean everywhere, I mean everywhere. There's clothes on the floor, on the bed, over the door... it's quite a mess. Unicity rushes around, trying to find something in panic.

"What's going on in here?" Flit yawns, rubbing her eyes and dodging a flying shoe. I jump as a skirt comes zooming at my feet and Twi leaps to the right to avoid a belt. Ooh, that would've hurt... Preston walks over and stuffs his face into my shoulder.

"It's too earlyyy," he whines, "Can we go back to bed now?" He's acting like a big 5 year old - a cute 5 year old - and I can't help but grin.

"No, I still don't know why Unicity is freaking out," I snicker and gently push his head away. He pouts and goes to do the same thing to Rob.

"Unicity!" Jackie yells, walking over with an annoyed expression. "What are you doing?!?" She walks over and her eyes widen as she sees the ginormous piles of clothing thrown everywhere. Wait, where did she even get all of that from? We're on vacation, not at home!

"Girls, I need your helppppp..." Unicity whines, throwing a shirt at the wall.

"Umm... with what, exactly?" Flit asks as she edges towards the door, clearly nervous about getting hit with something.

"This is only for the girls," Unicity pointedly looks at the guys, who have made their way here. They sigh and walk away mumbling about how unfair it is.

"So, what's going on?" Peony asks, picking up a pink dress off of the floor. She examines it and then squeals.

"Darling, you can borrow it if you promise not to get chocolate all over the top like last time," Unicity sighs. Peony jumps up and down and then remembers why we are all here.

"Sooo... why is your room trashed?" I ask, putting a hand on my hip and raising an eyebrow.

"Okay, okay. I promised this boy," Unicity starts talking before a collective 'Oooohh...' from the rest of us. She rolls her eyes and continues, "That I would go out with him for coffee later this morning."

"And what does this have to do with your room?" Twi asks, confused.

"I have nothing to wear!!!" Unicity wails. I try to hold back rolling my eyes and stand there as she begins pawing through more clothing.

"Unicity, you have a ton of clothing. If you don't like that, then you have magic, remember? Just magic something up," Twi sighs in annoyance. Unicity looks shocked for a moment and blushes.

"Oh yeah..." she trails off, embarrassed. I snicker silently and then remember that I was woken up because of it.

"Okay, let me know when you're leaving. I'm going back to bed," I yawn and walk out of the room, only to find the boys eavesdropping behind the corner. I put my hands on my hips and stare at them as they scream and go sprinting away as if their lives depended on it. I doubt running would change the fact that they were clearly standing there, but I'll just let them go. Shrugging, I walk into my room and plop down on the bed, grabbing Cupcake and giving her a hug. Preston walks out of the bathroom and closes the door before laying down next to me and sighing.
