Maya's POV

A yawn escaped my lips as I stretched, catching a whiff of my morning breath in the process. Lily's house has always been a refuge away from my house full of boys. It was close too since we just lived across the street from one another.

Mom and dad got divorced when I was twelve and then a year later my aunt got sentenced to life in the big house. Mom became the sole legal guardian of her nephews 'and my now adopted brothers;' Life at home was a bit chaotic, to say the least.

Lily wasn't in her bright colored room, which was odd because she's not the morning type. She was notorious for sleeping past noon. After I got up from my side of her single sized bed, A wince escaped as my feet met the cold wooden floor. My bladder was the one thing that always woke me up first thing in the morning,

The bathroom was just at the end of the hall. Minimalist was the only word that could be used to describe the Kim residence. I enjoyed the neat organization of their humble home. Between mom's collection of wig busts and the boys' various hobbies organization is something that our home doesn't get the luxury of. 'My room will never suffer from Hurricane Rivera.'

I gave a light knock against the wooden door. 'No answer.' I gave another knock a bit harder this time still no answer. 'I guess no one is in there.'

A sigh escaped my lips as I turned the knob and entered. It took a second for my vision to adjust to the bright lights, The warm steam contrasted the cold hallway. My eyes landed on rock hard abs that had water droplets. 'Oh my god... oh my god... Noah Kim is standing right in front of me practically naked...'

My cheeks heated up as both my eyes and mind wondered. He cleared his throat as we made eye contact. "Can I help you Thompson?" he asked, his voice filled with annoyance.

"S-sorry!" I stammered and quickly closed the door behind me and slid down it. Noah Kim was the guy of my dreams as a kid. I didn't think it was possible but he got ten times more attractive. His hair was obviously longer and he definitely worked out now. He was all flabby before. Noah was the bane of my existence.

A freshly baked Lemon cream pie sat on the counter. The only evidence left of Lily's late night baking palooza. Footsteps approached as I instinctively looked up, Noah shot daggers at me, causing me to turn my attention back to my phone. 'Yup, he definitely hates me.' "You know I did knock." I began as I continued to scroll through my phone. He didn't answer, instead the fridge opened. I stole a glance while his back was turned, watching as he drank milk straight from the carton. 'Gross other people drink that.' "I think a glass will be better, we're not neanderthals."

"We?" He repeated, the coldness in his voice sent chills. This was not the guy I remember at all. He wasn't a straight up jerk, at least not to Lily or I. "There is no we Thompson, you and I aren't the same."

I sigh and stand up from the table. 'Screw you Noah. If you're pissed off at me for walking in on you, then get over yourself, lock the door for crying out loud, or better yet open up your damn mouth when someone knocks. It wasn't my fault but at least I apologized.' Is what I wanted to shout at him but instead the moment my hazel eyes met his cold dark brown ones, a lump formed in my throat. "Adios." I said as I turn for the door as his phone buzzes. 'Where the hell is Lily?'

"Lily wants us to meet her outside." He stated as I reached the doorway. "Says she has a surprise for us."

I stand there in a daze before I nod. "Surprise for us?" I repeat still standing in the doorway.

"That's what I said isn't it?" He scoffed, "now are you gonna continue blocking the way or are you going to move?"

I quietly move out of the way. "You seem to have lost your charming personality." I muttered to myself. "Obnoxious son of a witch."

"We don't have all day."

I follow after him shooting daggers at his back. Once we were outside I noticed the camper parked in front of the Kim's house as Lily talked to a middle aged man with a clipboard.

"What is all this?" I asked as we approached her.

"I ordered a Rv." Lily stated as I furrowed my brows trying to see if I heard her correctly.

"I'm sorry. Did you say you ordered a Rv?" I repeated as Lily nodded, her straight bleached dirty blonde locks bounced with every movement of her head. "How do you order a vehicle like it's a pizza or something?"

"I saw this new app when I was scrolling through my feed. EZRoam is where you can rent or buy a vehicle, and if you're not satisfied with your ride within thirty days you can get your money back."

"I love you sis but why the hell would you waste your money on a raggedy RV?" Noah asked as he turned his attention to Lily and flashed a forced smile. Lily was the only person who could ever make Noah smile. Heck, Lily was the type that made everyone smile, unless of course you were a certain self absorbed mean girl.

"Come on, Nono. You can't judge Lemon Drop without seeing her in action." Lily stated, she flipped her hair over her shoulder. "Come on guys, all I ask for is twenty days of freedom. You guys are my best friends and if you're still against a road trip in Lemon Drop after then. I'll get a refund."

Being in an RV with Lily, where we could talk trash and fan girl was not the worst thing in the world. But, being stuck with Noah, the handsome devil incarnate himself? That would be literal hell on earth. 'God please take me now.'
