Wanted

Chapter 20

“No clubs?” Colton asks quirking an eyebrow.

            “Because that went over so well last time,” I laugh, “but no clubs. I was thinking that you guys could all figure out something fun for us to do.”

            “Sure,” Alec agrees. “I have just the place.”

            “Where?”

            “Oh I’m not going to tell you, where is the fun in that?” He asks.

            “Fine, but it has to be fun,” I stress. “Something all of us will enjoy because we have to leave tomorrow.”

            “Yeah, yeah now shoo,” Alec says.

            I do as he says and head back into my room; while they plan out whatever it is that we’re going to do later. I lay down on the bed and just ponder some things, while I’m doing so I stick my head phones into my ears connected to my iPod touch and run through a playlist.

______________________________________________________________________________

            Someone rips out my headphones, “Becca.” They say loudly into my ear.

            I open up my eyes and glare at them. I wasn’t doing anything really but it is still annoying for someone to pull you away from daydreaming.

            “What?” I ask.

            “We’re going soon so you need to get dressed,” Colton says.

            “What am I supposed to wear?”

            “Normal clothes,” he says before, leaving our room.

            I haul myself off the bed and make my way into the bathroom to do my hair and make-up. I dampen my hair slightly before pulling it into a French braid, falling down my back. I pull a few shorter strands loose and let them fall around my face.

            For make-up, I put on some foundation, mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss. Basic stuff.

            Once I am satisfied I leave the bathroom and open up a dresser, I pull out some light blue skinny jeans and a grey off the shoulder, oversized sweater, and a tank top to go underneath. I quickly put them on before heading back into the bathroom to look in the mirror. Once I’m sure I look fine, I grab some flat black ankle boots, slip them on and leave the room.

            A few of the guys are just coming out of their rooms as well, looking completely casual.

            Alec moves his eyes around the room to check and see if everyone is accounted for. “Okay let’s go.”

            I wait until we get out of the hotel and onto the street before I ask where we are going again. I’m probably not going to get an answer but it’s worth a shot.

            “You will just have to wait and see,” Colton says.

            “But you all know what it is,” I whine. “It’s just isn’t fair.”

            “Life isn’t fair, sweetheart,” Parker says from behind me. I don’t look at him. I can still feel the embarrassment crawling in my stomach. At least it has faded a bit but I still feel incredibly awkward around him.

            I let the guys continue their chatter as I walk quietly behind the triplets who decided to lead the pack. We make a few turns off of the road our hotel is on. I don’t pay too much attention aside from the road names.
