Anthony's P.O.V.

I awoke with Jasmine in my arms. Which is a bit weird since I remember being a bit more distant from her.

She stretched her arms out yawning. "What are we doing today?" She asked rolling over.

I reached for the pamphlet that was on a nightstand between the two beds. I scanned the activities section. We have already basically checked out the arcade and laser tag, we've gone to the pool, we can save the beach for tomorrow...I then spot hiking up in this tropical rain forest a bit far from here but not too far.

"Hiking," I tell her.

"That sounds cool," She says getting out of the bed.

I get out of the bed too and wake up Dav and Oak who immediately woke up. "What are we doing today?" Dav asks.

"Hiking," Jasmine answers.

"What?" They ask.

"Hiking," I repeat for them.

"You looked through the pamphlet and that's all you got from it?" Oak complains.

"Hey, I actually don't mind as long as we're out of the hotel," Jasmine buds in walking to the bathroom first.

"It better be good or else it's just a buttload of wasted money," Oak muttered.

I roll my eyes and ignore him laying on the bed and waiting for Jasmine to come out so I can go next.

We went down to the dining hall for breakfast. They had a different selection of food this morning. But then Jasmine grabbed the same thing again which kinda bothers me. We ate our food and returned to the hotel room to get ready. It was hot out and I estimated how long the hike might take. So I wore beige shorts and a white t-shirt with a baseball cap. 

They guys kinda wore something similar with the shorts but a different selection of a top. We waited outside the hotel room for Jasmine to finish getting ready. She came out of the hotel room wearing a black tank top with a red flannel and short-she's wearing my red flannels.

"So I see my clothing on you...again, but I'm- I'ma let it slide," I tell her.

She giggles. "It was in my drawer somehow so I'm wearing it," She replies.

Oak and Dav muffled a laugh. Obviously, the duo did that. I sigh putting an arm around Jasmine. "Next stop, beauteous forest," I announce.(this is not a real forest I just made it up)

We decided to take a bus to save time on us getting lost to the location. I sat by Jasmine as she read a book. I grab the book out of her hand leaving her to read air. She shoots her eyes towards me. "Stop," She demands.

"No can do because we're going to have fun on this bus ride," I tell her.

She furrows her eyebrows."Depends, what type of fun?" She asks.

"What type of fun do you want?" I ask.

"We can...have you ever played the game tweety?" She asks me.

"No," I respond.

"Okay so you're supposed to find yellow cars and when you find one you yell tweety!" She explains.

She's so cute when she's bouncy and excited. "Oh. okay sounds easy," I respond.

We stared at the window searching for a yellow car. "I so underestimated on how hard it is to find a yellow car," I say staring with boredom.

"Okay then another game," Jazzy suggests turning towards me.

"Would you rather?" I ask her.

"Sure, okay would you rather...swallow that piece of gum at the bottom of this seat or...kiss that old lady the seat in front of us?" Jasmine asks.
