Flatmates

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

Shit, my alarm. How is it already 5am? I turn it off, rolling onto my back and staring up at the ceiling. I was excited, I really was. But fuck me I was tired.

I throw back the duvet, pulling myself into a seated position before standing. I grab my phone and text Will, James, Ethan and Simon to make sure they are all awake before brushing my teeth and getting dressed. I slip down the hall and put my hairbrush and tooth brush in my case, before putting the kettle on and going to wake Alex and George. I decided to leave Harry till last.

'George' I whisper as I open his door. 'Come on, we gotta leave in half hour. Kettle is on.'

'Mmmhhh' he groans in response, throwing his duvet back and sitting up. 'It's too early' he moans.

I walk a little further down the hall and knock on Alex's door. 'Alex, time to get up' I whisper. As I open the door I see he is already sat on the bed dressed and ready to go. 'Jesus, you are already up!'

'Yeah, too excited' he giggles and he stands and walks towards his bathroom.

Finally I go to the living room where Harry is sound asleep. 'Harry, come on buddy you gotta get up. We gotta go soon. Kettle is on.'

'Jess. Do I have to' he whispers, pulling the blanket up over his head. 'It's too early.'

'I know it is, but just think of all the alcohol waiting for us in Spain' I giggle, tugging his blanket back down. 'Come on, I will make you a coffee.'

I go into the kitchen and pull out four mugs, making coffee's for us all. I find some croissants in the cupboard and bung them on the breakfast bar with the drinks. After about ten minutes all four of us are sat eating and drinking, the lads beginning to wake up a little.

Beep. Beep.

'Uber is here guys, time to go' I call as I head towards the door to grab my suitcase. We all head out, locking the door behind us and piling into the elevator. It was holiday time.

We met the other lads at the airport, and after just a few short hours we touched down in sunny Spain. Once we had all collected our luggage, we piled into the minibus I had booked and were soon stood outside the magnificent Villa. It was even better than it looked in the pictures.

'So, there are 5 bedrooms, most of them are twin doubles. Some of us will have to share' I finally announce as we pile in through the massive doorway.

'I can share with George' Alex says looking at George for confirmation.

'Yeah that's cool with me' he replies.

'I don't mind sharing with someone?' Will pipes up.

'Yeah I will share with Will' James adds.

'I don't mind sharing' I say as we dump our suitcases in the hall and begin to explore. The Villa is incredible, better than anything I have ever stayed in before. Alex and George and Will and James head off to choose their rooms and dump their bags whilst everyone continues to explore.

'I don't mind sharing with you Jess, you did after all arrange this amazing holiday' Harry says quiet enough for the others not to hear.

'Go on then. Lets go choose our room' I say as I head back to the hall to grab my suitcase. 

We wander all the way to the top floor where there is just one bedroom, and it is of course unclaimed. It has a massive ensuite and a balcony, and Harry and I instantly claim it. We quickly unpack everything into the wardrobes, before I disappear into the bathroom to change into a bikini. I am not wasting time getting in the pool!

By the time I reemerge, Harry is changed into his shorts and ready to go.
