the next morning, i wake up and tommy's arms are still wrapped around me. i smile. i don't want to move, but it's already 9:00. and today is my last day in brighton.

luckily, i don't have to wake up tommy because he wakes up immediately after me.

"have you been awake for long?" tommy asks, rubbing his eye.

"no. woke up a few seconds ago," i respond.

"our sleep schedules are synced?"

"damn. that happened quickly." tommy smiles and gets up.

"come on, no time to waste. today's your last full day. we have to make it the best." tommy walks next to me and pulls me out of bed. "i'm going to my room and get changed. meet you downstairs for breakfast?" i nod and put on my outfit for the day as soon as tommy leaves.

when i head downstairs, niki is in the kitchen making breakfast with alex

when i head downstairs, niki is in the kitchen making breakfast with alex.

"i don't trust alex with breakfast," i say. "can i help instead?" alex looks at me and groans.

"big talk for someone who's dressed like me," alex says, pointing at his black floral shirt.

"at least i'm not wearing a beanie."

"you suck." alex hands me the spatula he was using to make scrambled eggs.

"i don't suck-"

"don't you even THINK about finishing that sentence." i laugh.

"as if you wouldn't make that joke."

"not with you."

"touché."

alex goes upstairs and i turn to niki.

"what are we making?" i ask.

"omelettes!" she replies.

"ooh, i love those."

niki puts bacon on the stove and sighs.

"this is your last day, isn't it?" she asks. i nod grimly.

"clay and i are purchasing my ticket tonight. i'm not looking forward to it."

"hopefully we can all do this again sometime. this was a ton of fun."

"it was. this was probably the best week of my life."

"oh yeah. i'm sure you and tommy had an even better week than the rest of us." i laugh.

"probably."

by the time niki and i finish breakfast, everyone's awake and downstairs. apparently, last night wilbur told everyone to be awake pretty early in the morning so we can have a fun last day.

"awww, we have to take a picture of val and alex together," nick says. "they both look like divorced dads! maybe even twins!"

"SHUT UP," alex and i both shout at the same time.
