"Lia please hurry up!" I yelled from my bed. "If you want to be a tourist then you're gonna have to hurry!"

"If someone didn't wake up at 11 then we wouldn't be having this problem!" Lia yelled from the bathroom. I shrugged in agreement. She finally walked out of the bathroom. She looked stunning. She was wearing this black body suit, light wash denim shorts, and her black vans that she always wears. And she left her hair down naturally, she had beautiful caramel-blonde wavy hair that went a little bit past her shoulders. She grabbed her backpack and her sunglasses and walked out the hotel room.

"Where to Miss Baxter?" I ask as we walk to the elevator.

"There's this cute coffee shop a couple blocks away?" She said pressing the button for the elevator.

"Sounds lovely," i reply smiling at her. She smiled back and looked down. The elevator door opened and there was an older lady in the elevator. She made space for us and we walked in. I was talking to Lia about some random stuff and we were laughing. The older lady looked at us and smiled. "You two make a very cute couple."

"Oh no we're not together," Lia said smiling at the lady. The elevator doors opened and the lady began to walk out.

"Such a shame, you two would make a wonderful couple." She said and walked out. I looked at Lia and raised my eyebrows up and down. She playfully shoved me.

We got to that coffee shop Lia talked about. We got our drinks and sat outside. Lia was looking around in awe the city of San Francisco. I took out my phone and snapped a few photos of her. She looked at me and smiled telling me to stop. But when she said that I got a picture of her smiling, I looked at it for a moment. God she was beautiful, stunning, gorgeous. There are no words to describe her. The way the sun hits her face it makes her glisten. I would give up everything for her...

We finished our drinks and began walking around the city of San Francisco. Lia was taking pictures of literally everything she saw.

It was almost 10 pm and we were just getting back to the hotel. We got into our room and I threw myself into my bed. I groaned. "My feet hurt!!"

"That's what happens when you wear converse," Lia shrugged.

"You wore vans?? Your feet don't hurt?" I said sitting up.

"Nope, that's cause these vans are badass," She said taking them off and throwing them aside. I scoffed. "Admit it vans are better than converse!"

"This is by far the strangest conversation we've had," i said getting up from the bed. "I'm gonna use the restroom."

"Not until you admit it!" She said. I ignored her. But then she jumped onto my back. "Admit it!!" She said trying to tackle me. I laughed and walked towards the bed and threw her on it.

"You're a stranger person Lia." I said laughing.

"The strangest!" She said. "Hey let's go swimming?"

"Is there even a pool here?" I said.

"Of course, it's a hotel!" She said. I shrugged, she got excited and got her swimsuit from her luggage. She went into the bathroom to change. I put on my swim trunks and Lia walked out of the bathroom. She was wearing one of my flannels and her swimsuit underneath it. She grabbed her backpack and opened the mini fridge. She got a few tiny bottles of alcohol and put it in her backpack. I was kind of skeptical about it but what the hell, we're young. 

We walked from our room to the pool on the roof. No one was there, all you could hear were the sounds of the street below us. Lia took off her- my flannel and jumped into the pool. She came up from the water and yelled, "It's fucking cold!" I laughed. I took off my shirt and jumped in. I didn't really look before I jumped and I almost landed on Lia. She screamed and quickly moved out of the way. I was submerged underwater and swam back up. I was laughing my ass off. 

"I'm so sorry," I said laughing in between each word. She splashed me with water.

"You could've killed me you fat ass!" she laughed. I suddenly got serious.

"Hey my ass is not fat," I joked pointing at her. 

"Mhmm, better lay off the fries Lawley." She giggled. I smiled at her beauty. 

"So that's how it's going to be Baxter?" I said, she splashed me again with water. She laughed and then jumped on me. She tried to bring me underwater but she was so light it wasn't working. I picked her up and then threw her in the water. She screamed and then was underwater. She came up like 2 seconds later and called a truce. 

We swam a little longer and then we got out of the pool. She downed about 2 mini bottles of Jack. And she was lightweight so she got drunk easily. I refused to drink because I've never been much of a drinker. 

Lia was on her 3rd mini bottle of Jack and shows already slurring, "You know... fuck James..... He's a fucking asshole." She said holding up her mini bottle. "fuck everything." I took the bottle out of her hand and put it in the backpack. 

"Lia that's enough," I told her. I hated seeing her drunk, I hate seeing anyone drunk.

"You can't tell me what to do," She slurred. She stumbled towards me and tripped. She almost fell but I caught her before she could. "You're vey handsome lollipop." She giggled. Her breath reeked of alcohol. She tried to lean in to kiss me but I leaned away. Of course I wanted to kiss her but not like this, not when she didn't mean it.

"Lia why do you do this," I said letting go of her. "Why are we like this?"

"Kian I like you," she said. "I've always liked you. But you're such a fuck boy I can't like you." Now I know that was the liquor talking. 

"Come on Lia let's get you to bed." I said putting a towel around her and then putting the backpack on. 

We got back to the room and she stumbled to her bed. I made sure she got into bed safely, and to make sure she didn't get anymore alcohol. She crawled into bed and whispered goodnight. I smiled and went into my bed.
