Colby's pov:

   I woke up to strong arms wrapped around my waist. My head was rested in the crook of the blondes neck, his warm breath blowing my fringe slightly. I looked up and took in Sam's gorgeous features, his porcelain skin, his long eyelashes, his soft golden hair, everything about him was perfect. how could he possibly want to be with someone like me? I looked down and saw the small kings crown on my wrist and immediately smiled. We were born for each other, nothing could change that. This wonderful human being is my soul mate, and I couldn't be happier about that.

   "mm... Colebear? what are you doing up so early? Sam groggily spoke, yawning straight after. He opened his ocean blue eyes slightly and looked straight at me, he looked concerned. He reached down and cupped my cheek.

   "Baby... Why are you crying? What's wrong?" He asked while rubbing my cheek in a comforting way. I reached up and gently placed my hand over his.

   "I'm ok Sammy, They're happy tears for once, I promise." I said, letting a few more tears drop before connecting our lips in a quick kiss. He smiled into the kiss and quickly rolled us over so I was straddling his waist. 

   "and what were you so happy about beautiful?" He asked, the biggest smile plastered onto his face. I giggled slightly before speaking. 

   "There's a lot to be happy about now. For one, you're with me."I said as I leaned down and kissed his forehead. His smile got even bigger than it already was. 

   "Well, I love you so so much, but it is four in the morning, and I think we both need a lot of sleep to prepare for whatever Elton is planning." Sam whispered in my ear.

   "Holy shit it's that early?! I thought it was seven in the morning or something!" I whisper yelled. Sam laughed while shaking his head at me. I lowered my head so I was laying on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me, making me feel so safe and loved and so much more. 

   "I love you Colby, more than the universe knows." Sam whispered to me while closing his eyes. 

   "I love you too Sammy, so so much. I said, slowly drifting off into a blissful sleep.

Time skip to morning 

"Rise and shine ladies!" Elton screamed, making me jump up and hit my head on the ceiling. Sam sat up and hugged me, lightly petting my head to ease the growing headache.

   "Thanks Elton..." I mumbled leaning into Sam's chest more than I already was. He just laughed and told us to be ready for the beach in twenty minutes.

   "Are you alright beautiful?" Sam quietly asked me. I just nodded and slowly moved away from him. I stretched as much as I could before making my way off of the bed. I yawned and made my way to the bathroom, using the toilet, brushing my hair and teeth, and changing into my swim trunks and a t-shirt to cover as many scars as I could. I looked in the mirror and once again frowned upon seeing myself.

   "Yeah you're pretty cute, don't have to stare to see it." Sam said from the now open doorway.

   "Jesus you scared me, and no I'm really not ." I replied. Sam just laughed and came closer to me, wrapping his arms around my waist and resting his head in the crook of my neck.

   "But you are, more than anything in the world. Now come on, we have to go soon. I already told Elton to try to keep the camera off of you, or at least from a distance so the viewers don't know about your scars ok? I know you would have been really self conscious about that." Sam said, nuzzling my neck and littering it with kisses. I smiled and mumbled a quiet thank you. He smiled into my neck, leaving one last kiss before kicking me out of the bathroom so he could get ready as well. I walked over to my bag and grabbed a hoodie, just in case. I slid on the green tiger camo XPLR hoodie and sat on the couch next to Corey to wait for Sam. Once he came out of the bathroom, with no shirt might I add, we were all set to leave. Not before Elton turned the camera on and pointed it at all of us.

   "Alright ladies! Are you ready for the best beach day?!" Elton screamed, to which we all replied with an even louder scream.

   "Aye aye captain!"

   "Good to hear! Lets get out there!" He screamed and finally shut the camera off.

   "What exactly is going to make this beach day so awesome?" I asked. Elton just looked at me with a mischievous smirk as he stepped out of the RV.

   "Thank you so much for the clarification." I whispered as I followed everyone out of the RV. Once we were all outside, Elton had revealed that we were going to be taking some boogie boards and sleds, tying them to buggy's, and seeing what happens. We rode the two buggy's to the secluded beach and immediately got to work. Elton had the camera on for most of the time we were there. Elton had tried the buggy sled first and did really well! Next was Sam, then me. Sam and I did worse than Elton but still managed to have fun. Elton got a bit scratched up, but overall the day was amazing! I was happy the entire day, which had become rare for me. Throughout the day, Sam would sneak quick kisses and smiles to me, not that I minded in the slightest, just made me a bit anxious that someone would see them and expose them to the world. I'm not too sure how the fans are going to handle Sam and I being together.. I hope they accept it.
