Hey guys thanks for all the new follows and likes. I'm delighted to know some of you like the story. I'd love to know what you think of it though, so let me know what you think of the story so far.
The next morning I woke up to a pounding at the door.
"Hey sleeping beauty, are you going to wake up and join us or stay here for the next 5 weeks!!!" I heard Guy yell from the other side of the door. And from what I could guess Harry laughing.
"shit." I realised I overslept myself and jumped out of bed, getting on my clothes in less than 5 minutes. Pulling the door with a force, Harry and Guy stood waiting on the opposite wall.
"I'm sorry guys, I didn't hear my alarm. Come we should go eat breakfast and leave for the airport." I apologised, sheepishly as I closed the door behind me and followed behind them.

After eating breakfast, we all headed back to put on our gear. Packing our carry bags and left the hotel.
Once we arrived at the plane developed to land on Ice that would take us to the Ammassalik ice sheet. We got our last briefing. "Okay so, Liv will be carrying a satellite phone, if something should go wrong. A medical team will be standby 24/7 until you're all back including a helicopter. There will be medical check-ups once every 3 days when a doc will visit you guys.
The moment somebody starts experiencing altitude sickness, it must be called in immediately. So that's its good luck and I'll see you 'all in 5 weeks." Richard one of the co-founders said. The team nodded their head before climbing into the plane.
After a 20minute plane ride, we arrived at our starting point. Unloaded our gear didn't take us long and before we knew it the plane was gone and we were left to our own devices.
"Well, this is it then," I said to myself, turning my attention to the team I would lead across the ice sheet. "Okay, listen up!!!" I yelled out.
"From now on I'm the boss if something doesn't feel right. You tell me and we'll see what we can do, don't try to be tough guys I know you're army guys. But, It'll only get you bitten in the ass. You all know how to attach your gear. We leave in 15 minutes." I announced, letting them know I meant business. If something went wrong, it would be my fault.
No matter how young I may seem to them, they were my responsibilities. After making sure that everybody was attached to their sledge we left.
"Oh, and by the way, it's normal to hear cracking sounds once in a while, were on a glacier after all," I said making it sound like the most normal thing in the world. That day I took the lead. We walked for 8,5 hours and covered the distance we should have.
As we reached the spot we'd stay at that night everyone was beyond tired. Putting up the tents took about half an hour.
"Okay, so here's the deal, tomorrow we leave at nine o'clock. So melt some ice, hydrate as much as you can, eat something and put your head down for the night. If something's wrong, you can call me anytime, so good night." I told them, looking at the circular camp we set up moments before.
"Hey, I see you're already melting ice. Thanks for that." I said, crawling into the tent that Harry and I would be sharing.
Pulling off my coat, I sat down. I was actually looking forward to sharing a tent with Harry.
Out of all the guys, I felt the most comfortable with him and I knew him most of all.
But I was also scared cause I had started developing feelings for him. I knew that nothing could come out of this, but still, you can't decide who you start developing feelings for.
