Addison's point of view
I wake up, and I see Bryce's arm around me. It's comfy, so I leave it be. My head hurts. A lot. I look around and I am back in my room.

Where am I ? I wondered as I look across the room. I don't remember much from last night. All I can remember is waking up to Bryce over my body in the sand. That's it.

The more I try to think about it, the more my head hurts. I try to get up, but Bryce won't let me out of bed. He lets out a tired groan.

"Bryce my head hurts" I say as I lay back down next to him. He has his eyes open, and he gives a mischievous smirk, and this is when I get scared.

"Oh no what did I do?" I say, not ready to hear about what happened. We sit up, and he goes on his phone. "Well for one I saved your life, that was scary." He says, looking sad.

"Then we almost had sex on the beach" he says. "WHAT!" I scream as I try to remember. I still can't. "And the rest of the night is video taped on my phone!" He says with a laugh.

I give a worried look in his direction as he still has that damn smile on his face. He gives me his phone and I watch all the videos. I cringe as I watch me ride Bryce all the way to the room, calling him a seahorse and saying I'm a mermaid princess.

But the last video is the worst one of all. "I love you, Bryce Hall" I hear drunk video Addison say, and I put a reminder on my phone to start planning my funeral.

"I'm gonna tell my dad, king of the sea, how much I love you Bryce Hall. That I'll never forget." drunk video Addison says. "You're not gonna say I love you back?" She says again, and I hide myself under the blankets.

I am blushing so hard right now. How could I say that, what if he doesn't feel the same way? Then I hear a giggly Bryce say "I love you too princess Addison Rae" and the video ends.

I get out and look at Bryce. Now he's the one blushing. "Did you mean it?" I say, watching his eyes shift from his phone to my face.

"Mean what?" He says, scrolling through my Instagram account. "The I love you, genius" I say sarcastically, snatching the phone from him.

He grabs my face and squished it. "Of course I meant it, princess Addison Rae. I love you" he says, and I smile. "Well I meant what I said." I say and pull him in for a kiss.

We make out for a little while then pack our stuff so we can leave for the airport later tonight. We go to the beach and everyone hugs me.

I guess it's because I almost died last night? I don't know, my brain still won't let me remember. The sun then begins to go down, and we all go to the airport.
Bryce's point of view
Addison tried to get away but I won't let her. She is not leaving my sight today, and that is a promise.

She wakes me up and tells me she doesn't remember anything, as I knew she wouldn't. I showed her the videos and filled her in on this adventure.

She cringed at every video and I found it cute. Then she got to the I love you video. It played and I blushed at my response.

I was being so genuine and vulnerable at that moment, while she was drunk. Of all times, while she was drunk.

What if she didn't feel the same way? That would break me completely. I get my phone and I go to Instagram.

I go to her account and I scroll through her pictures. Damn, why she gotta be so cute tho? She asked me a question, but I didn't hear her because I was distracted.

So I just responded "about what" and hoped that it sounded like I was listening. Suddenly she snatched my phone away, and I face her.

She was talking about the I love you video. I meant that with my full heart and soul, but I understand why she's questioning me about it.

I cup her face with my hands and I look her dead in the eyes and squish her face. "Of course I meant it, princess Addison Rae, I love you" I say, still cupping her face.

I hoped she felt the same. I just gave her my heart, it's her choice if she wants to break it, or keep it safe and warm. She smiles, and kisses me.

I will take this as a yes. We make out for a few and pack to leave for the airport later tonight. We head to the beach and everyone hugs Addison.

I get pats on the back from my boys and we chill by the beach. Soon enough we have to get to playlist so we get in the car and drive to the airport.

Anthony, Chase, Avani, and Charli meet us at the airport. The group groans as they see our flight is delayed and we have to wait 2 more hours to get on the flight.

Funny story was that I was in charge of buying tickets, but I never did. I pulled some strings and got us a private jet to take us there. And back here to LA.

They don't know that though, but they will soon enough. Some of them are about to fall asleep until I tell everyone to head outside. When they see the jet they all freak out.
Addison's point of view
I go with my girls as we see that our flight has been delayed 2 hours. 2 DAMN HOURS! What were we gonna do.

I looked over at Bryce as I saw him away from the group on a phone call. I thought it was a little suspicious, but I trusted him. After all he did tell me he loved me.

Speaking of, I go to my girls and spill all my tea on me and Bryce. "Y'all are endgame!" Nessa says, and I shrug it off.

Avani starts a live, and we all are in it. We all say hi to the live, and one of the questions Avani gets is "do you ship braddison?" Avani sees it, reads it aloud, and says "Of course I do! They are endgame!"

I roll my eyes as we continue the live. Then Bryce calls out to us, telling us to go outside, and we all get upset. It's bad enough our flight is delayed. I am really not in the mood for LA's hot weather.

Avani ends the live and we get all our stuff together. We slump over outside, and when we see it we are shook.

"Welcome to our plane!" Bryce says. "What about our flight?" Anthony said, and Bryce said "I never bought the tickets!" I roll my eyes. Such a Bryce thing.

"How did you even afford this? Doesn't it cost a lot?" Chase says, studying the plane. "Let's just say a friend of mine owes me a couple of favors" he says, opening up the jet.

"What are we waiting for? Let's ride!" Bryce says and we all get hype. We all get inside the plane, and I smile.

Yeah sure, people brag about their boys and how they are great and all and I used to get jealous. But not anymore.

Sorry girls, you can brag all you want, but all I know is that out of all the boys in the world, I got the best one.
