ALLISON'S POV:
It had been two weeks since my first date with Matt. Currently, all of us were on our assigned tour buses, on our way to Florida. There had been a couple of other stops between my hometown and Florida, and while they were memorable, there wasn't anything that really set then apart from other cities on the tour. Since we would be on our buses all day, Matt, Carter, Jack, and Jack had convinced me of a movie day. Carter and the Jacks wanted to watch horror movies, of course.

"Matt..." I began.

"I know. I got you, babe," he replied, already knowing I was about two seconds away from freaking out over having to watch a scary movie.

"Everybody set?" JaJo asked, coming into the room with tons of snacks.

"Um...actually guys, I don't really think I can have a movie marathon with you guys. Claire and I have been forgetting to post our own individual videos on our channel for weeks and I really need to do one."

Carter stared at me. "Now? Can't you do it after we do our movie marathon?"

"Yeah," Gilinsky agreed. "You had a movie marathon with Matt before."

I placed my hand on my hip, ready and willing to sass them.

"Well, first of all, I may or may not have had a crush on Matt at that point, I don't remember. Second, he let me pick the movies and the food. You people are basically forcing me to watch movies."

Matt jumped in before I said something bad. "Plus, I had promised her a while back that we would do a video together, and we totally forgot to do that because of the movie marathon. Plus, a lot of people want a Matthlison update, so please just let us film the video before we all have to go through hell dealing with a pissed off Allison."

I glared at Matt. "I take back what I said about you being the best boyfriend ever."

Matt feigned hurt. "I'm going to go cry and write in my diary about that now. You know how sensitive I am!"

As Matt began to fake cry, I let out a giggle. "I'm sorry, princess, you know I didn't mean it."

Matt and I stared at each other for a couple seconds before bursting out laughing, even though there wasn't really anything funny.

"Sorry about saying you're difficult to deal with when you're pissed off, but we a know it's true."

I walked over to Matt and kissed his cheek. "Yeah, I know I am. I don't understand how you put up with me."

Matt smiled. "I know. I'm a saint."

After me begging for a while, the boys gave in and I was free. I felt bad that Matt had to miss out on the movie and spending time with his friends though. We were sitting on my bunk trying to think of a video idea.

Matt smirked at me. "We could do the girlfriend-boyfriend tag."

I rolled my eyes. "Or we could not be that stupid cliché couple and actually come up with an idea."

Matt laughed. "You are the only girl I know that isn't a huge fan of romantic things. But that's what makes you special. I like that you're different."

I smiled. "It's not that I don't like romance, I just hate those couples that feel the need to rub their relationship in everyone's faces. Like I get taking pictures and posting them, but it is completely unnecessary to make a video about just the two of you."

Needless to say, Matt and I couldn't come up with an idea, so we just hung out in my bunk, watching YouTube videos, talking, and eating.

We had finally gotten to our hotel for our event in Florida and Bart told us that the rest of today and tomorrow would be our free days. Matt and I looked at each other.

"Let's go on an adventure!" we screamed in unison.

Then we looked at each other creepily because we were having the same thought. The two of us ran up to our room and immediately tried to think of something to do. Claire and Shawn came into our room after getting settled in and told us they wanted in on whatever our adventure was going to be.

Suddenly, I looked over at Matt.

"I've got it!" I shouted.

MATTHEW'S POV:
"How about we go to a water park?" Allison asked excitedly with wide eyes.

I smiled. "It's perfect!"

I gave her a peck on the cheek, earning us a groan from Claire.

"Ew! You two are so cute it's like impossible to hate you! But, you two are all lovey-dovey and romantic. Like, how do you not get sick of each other?"

Shawn smiled. "Well, someone's just a travel sized ball of sunshine today, now aren't they?"

Allison laughed and Claire glared at her before laughing herself.

"The water park it is!" Shawn shouted.

We all got ready to go. Shawn and I were all ready to go ahead of time, but the girls were taking forever. It was totally worth the wait though because if it was possible, Allison looked even more beautiful than before. She was also jumping up and down like she was a little kid, but she was absolutely adorable in my eyes.

She hopped onto my back. "Let's go people! I'm not getting any younger!"

I laughed before running through the halls with my gorgeous girlfriend squealing as she got her piggy back ride.

ALLISON'S POV:
Deciding to go on an adventure today was a great idea. I mean, touring was fun, but all we really got to see was a hotel and the tour bus at every stop. It was understandable why we decided to take advantage of our day off. Being with Matt honestly made the day perfect. Shawn and Claire ran off the second we got there, daring each other to go on the scariest and biggest slides the water park had. After the two of them ran off, racing each other to the water coaster, Matt turned to me.

"So A, what do you want to do? It's your choice."

I looked at him. "Where'd the new nickname come from, Espinosa?"

Matt just smiled at me using his last name. "Well, Als is the nickname Claire came up with and I wanted to make a new nickname for my girlfriend."

I blushed as he said the word girlfriend. "I love the nickname. It reminds me of Pretty Little Liars."

Matt rolled his eyes. "So...where to first?"

I surveyed my options before deciding. "Hmmm...I wanna go on the lazy river!"

"You're lazy," Matt told me teasingly.

"Yup," I said as I climbed on his back for a piggyback ride. "But you're being a great boyfriend for allowing me to be lazy."

"I am, aren't I?" Matt replied, causing me to giggle.

After the lazy river we went on some racing slides, rode the water coaster like seven times, and went on every single slide in the park before we met up with Claire and Shawn.

We were all tired and decided to just go back to the hotel. But I knew I wouldn't forget today. Today was an adventure, and probably the best adventure I had ever been on. All thanks to my spontaneous boyfriend who goes by Matthew Lee Espinosa.
