i finished packing my bags - only two little ones since we were only going away for the weekend - and pulled them onto the bed. i thought for a moment if i'd need anything else or if i'd forgot something, but i was stopped by forcefully being hit over the head with a pillow. i turned around to glare at noah while he hysterically laughed at me, but before he could calm down i snatched the pillow from his hands and repeatedly hit him in return. now it was my time to laugh

"jeez calm down" he chuckled, pushing the pillow out of my hands onto the floor

"then don't attack me" i giggled, picking the pillow up and tossing it onto my bed

"it was only to distract you from the mess i've made in the living room" he grinned. he cant have messed it up that badly if it was already a mess, right? i walked out of my room into the living room to see the destruction he had done. and he had in fact somehow majorly added to the mess. and this is exactly how you can tell we're siblings

"when i said make yourself at home i didn't mean create an explosion" i laughed, looking around at the room

"i couldn't find the orange juice so i did a bit of searching"

"so how did a cushion end up in the sink?!" i laughed, not being phased by the mess at all

"you gotta do what you gotta do" he chuckled

"right we better get going. amelia will happily clean all this when we get back" i giggled, walking back into my room to get my bags, and quickly walking back out before noah could cause any more damage. i double checked i had everything and then we made our way back to the boys' flat.

"how are we getting there?" i asked, walking beside noah

"we've rented a mini bus and lexi's driving since she knows where it is" he replied, pulling his phone out of his pocket to check if he'd received any messages from anyone. as he did so, he somehow tripped over his own feet and dropped his phone. nevermind a trip to the lake house, how did these people manage to even rent a minibus?

i giggled as he brought himself back to his feet, checking his phone for any cracks or scratches, seeing there were none. he laughed at himself along with me as we took ourselves up the stairs to the apartment, opening the door and entering.

"finally they're back," lexi got up, pulling mikey up with her
"let's go!" she shouted, just as excited as we all are

"roadtrip are going on a roadtrip!" brook shouted and laughed at himself, causing us to chuckle. everyone got up, pushing their way out of the building and jumping onto the mini bus which i'm sure is soon to fall apart.

we all took our seats; lexi and mikey in the front, me in the middle on my own since i dislike people, brook and tori in front of me, jack across from them, becca and andy taking up the whole back row, rye and amelia on the second back, and noah across from them, probably fantasising about rye while staring at him.

the vehicle started and music started blaring out of the speakers quite loudly, causing almost everyone to cheer, while i, of course, pulled my big fluffy blanket out of my bag and wrapped it around me to go to sleep.

"are you seriously going to sleep?" tori giggled when she turned around and saw me.

"there's nothing wrong with a little beauty sleep" i giggled, leaning against the window to get comfortable

"isn't the music too loud?" she asked. since we were only new friends, she didn't know as much about me as the others did

"she can sleep literally anywhere" brook said, joining the conversation. i laughed in agreement and turned my head, closing my eyes and allowing myself to slowly fall asleep
