Alicia was seated in the parkings waiting for her friends, before heading to the cottage. She was playing a game on her phone, giggling at herself each time she lose. She fidgted at the sight of a shadow she saw next to her, she lift her head to see Jake smiling down at her, with his hands in his pocket. "Do you have to scare me that way?" She asked annoyed by the fact that she was still breathing.The smile on his face grew wider, he squat down to her level. "I'm sorry I scared you.

Alicia kept rummaging her closet looking for an outfit to put on, she picked out some and start to test which to put on. She pick a red high waist dress but shoved it aside.

After testing them for what feels like forever, she finally picked a skinny jean and tank top. She was about going into the bathroom to shower when her phones light turn on, notifying she has a message. She picked it up and check who it's from, her gaze landed on the name, and a smile appeared on her face, she read the message with the smile grewing wider on her face. "Hey kitty still mad at me?

He miss going there and thought it would be fun to go with her. "I'm sorry okay, I miss going there, and I wanted to go there with you, I bet you will love it." He said hoping to convince her.She was happy she's with him, she would go as far as he wants as long as she's next to him. "I will go wherever you want me to, as long as you're not far from me."

He said and his phone start to ring, he used the opportunity to pack the car at the side of the road, and pulled out his phone. "It's Scott.""Pick up." He nod and put the call on speaker."Hey dude, I can't believe you ditch me for a girl, it's not even up to a day you guys starte
