(hotel)

the car trip was already a total mess. dejah was late (as per usual), liv is throwing up in a bag due to her car sickness and nick is gagging in the back every time she throws up. not to mention the fact that everyone is arguing over what music to put on. chris and matt were sat in the front two seats, dejah and nate were in the back and liv and nick were in the very back.

it was matts turn to play a song, so he begins to play break by alex g. as soon as the song came on everyone started to look at each other. this was the first song that everyone agreed on. "okay, if anyone has anything bad to say about this song? please shut the fuck up." shouts matt, turning the volume up slightly.

chris looks in the rear view mirror at dejah who's smiling while singing the lyrics to herself quietly. he wanted to just crawl over there and hug her and sing along with her, but he can't, so instead he giggled to himself at the thought of it. "are you seriously laughing at my singing right now? let's hear you sing then?" scoffs dejah, watching chris giggling to himself.

chris' face straightens up as he's been caught, "no! i wasn't laughing at you. i mean.. it was pretty bad." he laughs, earning a playful eye roll from dejah, "i was just.. thinking."

"about what?"

chris just shrugs his shoulders and looks out the window. it wasn't until about a minute later that dejah received a message from chris saying 'you' that she knew what he was thinking about. she reads the message and swipes it away with a cheesey smile. "who's got you smiling like that?" asks nate, noticing her smile.

chris looks at her through the rear view mirror and smiles. she keeps the eye contact with him before pulling away to look at nate, "matt sent me a funny video."

matts eyebrows furrow, "i did?" he asks, getting a kick on his chair from dejah, "ohh, yeah i did. sorry i just.. uh.. forgot since i sent it a while ago and like.. you uh, must've only just opened it or whatever."

nate squints his eyes suspiciously and shrugs his shoulders.

the rest of the car journey was pretty boring. nobody really spoke that much apart from the occasional few words once in a while. when they arrived at the hotel they all went and checked themselves in. since there was 6 of them, they booked two rooms for three people each. liv, nick and matt in one room and dejah, chris and nate in the other. "better not be hearing no snoring from any of y'all or else i will shoot you both." laughs liv, throwing herself onto the bed "matter of fact, hand me the camera." she says.

"sure, here you go." says matt, grabbing the camera from his bag. "shit, the batteries dead. go get some more from chris they're in his bag."

nate, chris and dejah all pile into their room. dejah immediately throws herself onto the bed. chris takes a seat on the bed opposite of dejah, "you good?" he asks, reaching over and patting her on the shoulder.

"bro, it's hot as fuck in here, somebody open a window." laughs nate, "i'm gonna take a cold shower i'm so hot right now."

nate walks into the bathroom, leaving chris and dejah in the room by themselves. dejah sits up in her seat and looks at chris. his hair is sitting in the perfect place and his vivienne westwood necklace is dangling into his jacket. he notices her staring a little too hard, "you don't like the jacket?" he asks, assuming that's why she staring. he grabs his zipper and slowly unzips his jacket so his white shirt hidden beneath is now on show. her eyes move from his hands to his eyes as she stands up to join him next to him on the bed. "damn, nate was right it's hot as fuck in here." he says, beginning to take his shirt off too. dejah swallows as she watches his body reveal even more as he slides his shirt off.

"wow. i-" she manages to say as he throws his shirt else where, "you know exactly what you're doing and it's driving me crazy." she says, looking away. chris grabs her chin and makes her head turn to face him.

"wow what?" he says, leaning into a kiss.

"chris do you have a batter.." begins liv, bursting into the room, "oh." she says, watching the pair pull away quickly. "ohhh, so you are actually dating. wait.. eww you guys are gross you've only just got here?"

chris looks at her with confusion and then realises what it must look like, "oh my god, no. it was hot in here"

liv nods her head sarcastically, "yeah, suree. anyways i need a charger" she says, jogging slowly towards his bag and grabbing the charger. "thanks, also sorry for interrupting. i won't tell anyone."

"we don't date." speaks dejah, pushing her lips together. chris looks at her with those eyes, "..yet" she says, smirking at him. after a few minutes, nate steps out of the shower and lays down in the bed. liv walks out of the room and winks at dejah.

"what was liv doing in here?" he asks, looking around the room at chris and dejah who are now both laid on the bed next to each other inches apart. nobody answered his question so he just continued scrolling on his phone.

"hey guys, so basically i walked into their room and nate and chris were just making out and it was really scary. so no more shipping him and dejah because all along it's clearly been him and nate." says liv, trying to keep a straight face but ends up cracking a smile nearly after every sentence. nick snatches the camera off of her to stand it up on table in the middle of the room.

"guys, don't believe anything that comes out of her fucking mouth. its most likely a lie." he says, seeing the side eye from liv through the camera lens. matt walks into frame and waves while smiling, "awe guys! that clips probably gonna get edited to some taylor swift interludes! how cute." he teases. matt gives the camera an eye roll and flips the pair off who are laughing.

"anyways, we're getting ready to go to an amusement park and we're all really excited arent we guys?" asks matt, raising his eyebrows while his hands are stuck out in the space between them awaiting on one of them to answer.

nick furrows his eyebrows and grabs matts hands to put them down, "goofy kid sticking his arms out like that, like what the fuck." he laughs, turning to face the camera, "but yes. we're really excited."

liv wraps her arms around nick, "personally i'm excited to get something to eat not gonna lie" she says, looking at nick for approval in which he nods his head.

"wait lemme message the group chat and make sure everyone's ready." speaks matt, sending a quick message to the group chat telling everyone to come to their room. he places his phone down and begins to scroll on instagram. his heart almost stops when he sees a new post by abbie. it starts beating again, but incredibly fast when he swipes his fingers through the posts. his breathing begins to turn into a raspy yet heavy one as he grabs his chest. his whole heart physically hurts seeing her and jude together. he knows he should stop scrolling but he can't help it, it's like his fingers are doing it uncontrollably. he knows he needs to get over her and this is definitely not helping him. he sighs before shutting his phone off. nick noticed him through the camera and he inevitably turns to face him.

"are you okay, matt? don't worry about the camera if you wanna say something just say it. we can shut it off." he asks, grabbing the camera in case. matt nods his head slowly, watching nick shut off the camera.

"it's abbie." he says, instantly grabbing their attention, "it's just that.." he says, stopping his sentence as the rest of the group walk through the door, "i'll talk to you guys about it later." he says, standing up from his bed. nick and liv share a look at each other before following everyone out of the room.

"race ya" says chris, running down the hotel hallway, tapping dejah on the shoulder. dejah gives the camera a confused look and flips it around to show chris running.

"kid thinks i'm behind him." she whispers, laughing once he realises he just ran all the way down by himself. he laughs and flips the camera off, "bro he's so annoying i swear to god." nick runs after him too, doing a cart wheel mid way, but it didn't end well as he fell over. the whole group starts bursting out with laughter, "OH MY GOD IM SO GLAD I RECORDED THAT" she shouts, grabbing matts hand and making him run with her.

"where the fuck are you taking me dejah? and why me?" he asks, just going with the flow and following wherever dejah takes him. the rest of the group running behind them.

they all make it to the front desk and they begin to walk towards the amusement park. once they get there, they had already been stopped by fans 4 times. all ecstatic to see their favourite youtubers in real life. they had fast passes so they had already gone on 3 rides. they were currently going through the queue for the witchblade which chris was the most excited for. it was all he was talking about since he got to the amusement park. they all walk through the fast pass, but dejah looks hesitant. chris waits for dejah to walk in front of him but she never does, "cmon guys, hurry up!?" shouts nick, ushering for them to follow along.

"we'll be there in a second" shouts chris, watching the group go without them. "you coming?" asks chris, holding out his hand for dejah to grab so they can walk through together. dejah looks at his palm and then at him. her eyes are full of guilt, only he could see "what's wrong?"

dejah swallows and looks away from him, "it's just.. this ride looks really scary. and i-i don't want to go on it." she sighs, "i'll watch but i'm not going on it-"

"well then neither am i." says chris, "it's that simple." that familiar guilty look on dejahs face grew even more guiltier when the words left his mouth.

"this is why i was scared to tell you because i didn't want to ruin this moment for you. i know how much you wanted to go on this ride. please go. id be much happier if you went on it then you be stuck watching them do something you've wanted to do the most since you got here." explains dejah, taking ahold of chris' hand. chris sighs and takes her further down the path where nobody in the regular queue could see them.

"you know what else i've wanted to do even more then to go on this ride?" he asks, awaiting nervously for dejahs answer. she shrugs her shoulders in confusion, but soon understands as he leans in for a kiss for the second time. the only difference being that he finally got to meet with her lips this time. their lips danced on each other as dejahs hands move closer up his chest, soon reaching the side of his face. the kiss was gentle and filled with the tension that anyone could walk past at any given moment. a fan could pass and find out the truth, one of their friends could come down trying to find where they are and find them kissing. that's what was so exciting and thrilling about this kiss. he pulls away and longingly gazes into her eyes, "and now was probably the only time i could've been able to do what i've been wanting to do this whole time. fuck this ride" he smirks, before planting his lips back onto hers, still smiling.

"chris! dejah! where are you guys?" shouts liv, from in the distance. dejah immediately pulls away and moves an inch away from chris.

"what are you so worried about?" he asks, laughing at the sudden nervousness she was feeling at the sound of her friend in the distance.

dejah furrows her eyebrows, "them seeing? duh. wasn't it obvious."

chris smirks, "let them see." he says, grabbing ahold of her waist to pull her in closer. liv walks around the corner and sees the pair inches away from each other.

she just sighs and then smiles afterwards "okay. this is the second fucking time i've caught you guys doing something suspicious. something is definitely going on between you two."

chris and dejah both look at each other, "i don't know what you're talking about. i hate chris." she says, smirking up at chris who gives her an eye roll.

"that's not what it seemed like a second ago?" questions chris, in a teasing manner. dejahs face becomes a bright red.

"i'm staying here. i'm not going on. chris is though." she says, pushing chris towards liv.
chris sighs and waves her a good bye before he walks away with liv.
