I woke up to an alarm ringing. Hamzah sat up, making me get up.

"Good morning," He said in a groggy morning voice.

"Morning," I said back. I slowly climbed out of bed and went to go take a quick shower.

When I got out of the bathroom, wearing a short white skirt and a long sweater, Hamzah was already ready. He was sitting on the bed, on his phone. I walked over, standing in front of him until he looked up. He smiled wide and I sat down, on his lap. I leaned in and kissed his lips, running my hands through his dark curls. I felt him chuckle and put his hands around my waist, kissing me. I smiled and pulled away, twirling his hair around my finger, still leaning close.

I had to grab some jewelry from the bathroom. I quickly finished and walked back into the room. Hamzah was leaning against the open doorframe, while Chase was chatting with him from the hallway. I walked out and smiled at Hamzah, who smiled back. I smiled at Chase as well. The three of us waited in front of Claire and Haley's room for them to come out. Finally, they came, and we walked down to the parking lot. We climbed into Chases car, this time Chase and Haley in front, Me and Hamzah in the middle, and Claire in the back. We drove to the zoo, chatting on the way. It was still early, and my sleepiness hadn't quite worn off yet. I yawned and rested my head against the seat, falling into a light sleep.

"Rory. Rory. Aurora. AURORA!" I heard somebody shout in my ear. Claire was poking my shoulder. I yawned and sat up, rubbing my eyes.

"What is it?" I asked. Claire laughed.

"We're here," She said. I opened my eyes and hopped out of the car. Everyone else was waiting for us on the other side of the car.

"Let's go," Chase said. We all nodded and I walked by Hamzah, intertwining our fingers discreetly. We walked into the zoo, getting our tickets and going in.

We walked in, grabbing a map from the side.

"Let's go there!" Claire said, pointing towards the penguins. We laughed but followed, looking at all the animals.

We walked around the zoo for a couple hours before we started to get hungry for lunch. We decided to leave and go get subway. We climbed into the car and started driving.

"We have to leave tomorrow," Claire said, upset. I frowned. Who knows the next time I would see them? It was a repeat of last time. I slumped down in my seat and sighed. Hamzah noticed and gave me a supportive smile. I could barely manage one back.

We got to subway and walked in. I ordered a plain sandwich and we all sat down with our food and drinks. The restaurant was mostly empty except for one couple in the corner, across the shop. We all chatted, laughing and joking, and making a few tiktoks, but I still felt the crushing weight of leaving soon. I decided to ignore it, knowing that I would regret not enjoying my last day with them. I felt Hamzah put his hand on my thigh and blushed, but pretended I didn't notice and kept chatting with everyone.

We finished eating and decided to go back to the hotel to hang out. We drove back, talking on the ride back.

We got to our rooms and decided to gather in Chases. I pulled out my phone and posted a tiktok, then I cuddled up into some blankets and just watched some tiktoks. Claire and Haley were chatting and on their phones, and Chase and Hamzah were watching tv and on their phones. Hamzah was sitting on the foot of the bed I was sitting on, and he turned around to crawl back towards me. I smiled as he sat next to me, his head resting against the headboard. He looked down and smiled at me, and kissed my forehead. I smiled and blushed, but no one else was looking towards us. I moved my head so it was lying in Hamzahs lap. He played with my hair as I clicked around on my phone and he watched TV, in a comfortable silence.
