All in my head

Hey, I think you might wanna turn up your head phones a little louder for this chapter.

My picks are:

Love doesn't die_ Tatiana Manaois

No tears left to cry_ Ariana Grande.

•••

I had to pick one... it wasn't mission impossible... I mean like the movie... but definitely this mission wasn't possible. I thought and gave a soft laugh at my humor amidst my tear filled eyes, it brought a sense of comfort.

One. I had to pick one, here, now and fast, I was running out of time.

It was either Dave or my flight to LA before the departure gates were gonna be closed.

Announcement all passengers scheduled for flight 104 to Los Angeles, please make your way to the departure, your trips awaits.

The voice came again, this time with a sense of finality.

Dave or my trip to Los Angeles?...

I felt a soft tap on my shoulder.

"Dami, we have to go..." I heard Lily say as she tapped me even more.

I turned around and faced her, still in the moment of suspense.

"Dave..." Came a pained whisper as I turned back to where he was standing amidst the moving crowd.

Everything was blurring now, tears in my eyes...

The whole event, everyone and everything just swirled and blurred away as I used my hands to wipe the tears away.

Lily pulled my hand...

•••

"Wake up Dami!." She said shaking my arm.

I groaned and said his name again before regaining full consciousness.

I startled... Confused as I reluctantly stood up, Lily holding my arm, like I was a six year old kid.

"Dave huh?!... You were seriously dreaming about that guy!."

Wait, what?!... Don't tell me... Oh no... I had drifted into sleep and was dreaming the whole time... God!... Why???... It was so real, I mean c'mon...

I was mortified though but I was almost in tears.

Lily looked at my flushed mortified face and laughed. Cam was ensuring our bags had made it's way to cargo and baggages area. He was back now holding several receipts, stamps, tags for our luggages and our economy class tickets.

"Shall we?... LA awaits!." He started with his casual smirk but this time he matched it with a wink. Holding up the tickets in his hands.

"Yeah right, immediately Dami can see her way again." She said making no effort to hide the fact she was actually mocking me.

"Haha very funny Lily... C'mon Cam let's go!." I said in quick defense as I sucked in air and let it out, like I was blowing off steam as the air sent unruly strands of my hair, back away from my eyes, and gripped Cam's arm.

Lily laughed. While she followed by our side as we made our way to the departure route.

The hanger was larger than I expected, several other planes parked in their own lanes. We made our way to the plane, it was an Emirates. White with red stripes around the tail.

We made our way up the steps, Lily, Cam and I holding hands.

•••

We finally arrived at the national airport not to far from Malibu, southern California about two hours later.

The trip was successful, and I slept most of the way, with my ear phones plugged it. Lily was occupied reading a story on Wattpad, Cam had a Netflix subscription, so he watched Money heist series.

Immediately we got out of the plane, we headed straight to the arrivals. Following due protocols, we went through security check, stamping our arrival tickets, found our luggages and headed out.

I picked my phone, and dialed our assigned driver's number. He said he was already at the parking lot.

He wasn't hard to find, he wore a blue shirt and black jeans. He was standing close to an ash salon car... Oh it must be Uber then!... I smiled at the thought. Demetrius Smith is a very wealthy man, with influence at that.

We walked up to him.

"Hey, you must be Dami I suppose?." He asked stretching out a hand in greeting.

"Yeah, and you're...?" I responded.

"Samuel Harper, but you can call me Sam. I'll be your official driver for the main event." He smiles broadly.

I shook his hand, while he exchanged pleasantries with Lily and Cam.

We got into the car, it had working air conditioning, tinted glasses and comfortable seats.

We drove out of the airport, headed into town, passed through southern California. Los Angeles was a very beautiful and busy city, being the capital and considering the number of moving vehicles by this time of the day and the various skycrappers and modern housing all around.

The sun was up, but the atmosphere was somewhat humid as we headed to Malibu. It was surrounded by ocean. Malibu is the best place to have a summer vacation, I mean the weather alone is just... Soothing.

We drove some metres into Malibu, until we finally arrived at the beach side, ocean view motel more like a resort.

We got down, thanked Sam and headed to the entrance of the large building, it had a classic modern style design.

"Ouu..." Lily giggled excitedly as she breathed in the view in front of her.

The building had a hotel attached to it, and at the far end leading to the beach, it had a resort, that had multiple cabins and rooms.

We checked in at the reception, the receptionist checked for our names in the reservations, made us sign when she found it and finally handed us keys to Alpha cabin.

I almost laughed at the name but I comported my self and just smiled. All protocols observed, we were shown to another door, more like an exit.

It opened to a large expanse of land, like a compound, driveway and parking lot joined together, with several trees and benches. I was loving it.

We entered a small Homer meant for taking people across the... I dunno any longer, because this place was damn big.

We passed the hotel area, and drove along and finally reached the resort. We checked in and were directed to the Teens Deck. Ours was Alpha cabin.

Apparently they were three cabins in the Teens Deck. Alpha, Blue and Crib's Cabin... They should work on their naming... I thought. Each cabin had four rooms, one bathroom with a shower and tub, a small living room with a complete set television and a well stocked kitchen with practically all kinds of food teenagers loved.

We finally arrived after the long journey around the resort. The cabins where side by side. Alpha cabin was at the middle, Blue on the right and Cribs to the left.

Above the wooden door was boldly written 'Alpha Cabin', we climbed up the wooden steps and Cam rapped at the door knob, I was about to hand him the key, when it budged effortlessly.

It was open... Someone was in already.

"I wander who's the fourth person in our Cabin." Lily spoke happily as wind blew at her blond hair which was a mess right now.

We all made our way into the Cabin, and halfway along the passage way we came across a blond haired guy with tattoos on the side of his neck and on his left arm.

"Oh hey there..." Lily spoke first and waved.

The guy turned around fully and met our gaze with a nice smile, as his blue-grey eyes turned into an ocean of colors.

"Sup!... I'm Luke, Luke styles!." He replied in heavy accented English, definitely not from around here.

"Cool, I'm Lily by the way, that's my twin brother Cameron and that's my best friend Dami."

We all exchanged pleasantries. Funny how Lily got along sharply with strangers.

My room was at the end of the hall, opposite Lily's, while the bathroom was at the middle.

Beside my room was Cam's, then Luke's room was besides Lily's. He was already settled in, seems he had been here a while. The kitchen was close to the entrance opposite our living room.

We took our baths and finally went over to the kitchen for some acquaintance. Luke offered to make dinner while Lily assisted him, they were getting along pretty okay though. Cam and I settled in the sitting room and turned on the television set.

The parlour had a two sitter cushion and two other one sitters, with some bean bags well arranged. A black coffee table stood in the center of the room.

Everything about the living room was black and brown including the curtains and carpets. The cabin was wooden and classic enough with a nice summer holiday atmosphere.

Dinner was ready, we all settled down in the living room to enjoy our meal, laughing and gisting together as we all introduced ourselves properly.
