Road Trip // D.S. // To Hawaii

six

"ZIPLINING!"

"We get it, you're excited" I laugh entering the kitchen to a warm breakfast.

"The moms and dads are coming, so they also don't have to cook breakfast" Christian says

I sit at the table next to Anna and Daniel sits next to me. While Tyler sevres us all french toast, eggs, sausages, hash browns, and orange juice. Except Daniel. He got himself Apple juice. Of course he did, he's Daniel.

Christian sits himself down with his own plate and begins eating.

"Alright, so we're not waiting for our parents. Got it" Daniel laughs and starting on his breakfast.

"Thank you" I speak and I start on mine.

"Good morning!" Tyler speaks and we all hum while the parents come in.

Christian chews his food enough room for him to talk "Serve yourself! There's enough!"

"Don't talk with your mouth full!" Anna scolds

Christian puts his arms up defensively. Swallows his food then opens his mouth to show it clean before apologizing "SoRry!"

"Don't need to be so aggressive" Anna mumbles "y/n tell him he doesn't need to be aggressive"

"Anna says you don't need to be aggressive" I speak and continue eating

"No, you tell him"

"I thought I just did" I reply and take a sip out of my orange juice. While Anna facepalms herself. "Okay, okay, I get it. Christian, an- I mean I'm telling you to stop being aggressive"

"Anything for my soon to be sister in-law" Christian smiles

"I- not quite there yet" I blush slightly from the idea. I quickly look over to Daniel with the same expression then I focus my attention back on my food.

"yet? did she say yet?" Anna teases nudging me in the arm

"Yes Anna, now leave the two alone. We all know they're going to get married" Keri says

My dad fake coughs "not before asking me" and mumbles that very sentence into it. Earning chuckles from the room and Daniel simply nods.

"Glad that I'm stuck with you three" I smile but my tone was sarcastic. In a joking manner, no hard feelings.

"Hey, you only mean them two, right?" Daniel asks. I simply nod my head and he cheers up again.

"I still think we could've convinced Anna" Christian laughs

"No, she did nOt want to go" Tyler adds

"I think we could've, if we continued saying it was for the experience"

"Then our mom had to say she can hang out with the parents" Christian adds

"At least we only have one wimp" Daniel laughs

"Dude, why would you say that about y/n" Christian says

"No, he was talking about you" I say and point to him while Daniel nods his head in agreement.

"Haha, you wimp!" Tyler laughs before getting on the passenger side of the Jeep. To take us to our first destination to zipline. I would be lying if I didn't say I was nervous, but for now Christian has that title.

"I'm no wimp" Christian mumbles and sits next to me. The entire ride was pretty much silent. Besides for the admiration noises from looking at the view.

"You're gonna be fine" Daniel whispers as I get strapped in. "I'll be right next to you" he assures

"My heart is beating so fast" I laugh nervously

"That's fine, it's going to be fun"

"See! I'm not a wimp!" Christian says

"Okay, so when you get to the other side. You might have to pull yourself a little bit" the instructor explains while I nod my head understanding.

"Good luck y/n" Tyler waves

"Okay, on three" the instructor speaks "one"

"two" Daniel says looking at me to know I'm okay "three" he smiles and we jump together.

The wind pushing my hair back. When I look down I do have an uneasy feeling but when I look to the sides admiring the tops of trees and the ocean all the way to my left. I'm smiling in admiration.

I can see another island on my right in the distance. Daniel cheering a little bit ahead of me. He turns around and faces me.

"I- having fun?" He smiles

"Yeah" I nod my head, just in case he can't hear me.

Luckily I didn't have to pull myself because I was close enough to where they pulled me easily. Same thing with Daniel, we got unstrapped and waiting to hear the screams of Christian and cheers from Tyler.

This is definitely going to be a long fun day.

"How was that?" Daniel asks

"Still can't believe you're doing this for the second time" Christian replies

"Technically you are too, because we can't go back" Tyler laughs following the group to lead us to another zip line.

"How scared were you?" Christian asks me

"Umm, pretty scared I guess but the environment definitely helped. It's so beautiful" I admire "how was it for you bam bam?"

"It was fun and I'm excited to do the big one at the end" Tyler replies and looks at Christian for his reaction.

"Wait, I- uh so your saying that wasn't the big one?" Christian asks and we nod "oh good God in heaven"

"We still have four more buddy" the instructor says this time strapping Tyler and Christian first.

"Four more?!"
