• The Next Morning •

~ Maddie's POV ~

" Lachlan , stop it " I mumbled into my pillow .

" Wake up Mads " Lachlan replied ; his lips on my skin sending warm vibrations down my neck .

He continued to attack my neck with before I placed my hand in his face ; pushing him away .

" Lachlan stop it . Let me sleep " I groaned , pulling the covers up to
cover my neck .

" But Maddie , I'm bored " he groaned .

" You have over one million fans , talk to them , do a contest , anything to let me sleep " I quipped .

" But you're more fun than my fans will ever be " he replied .

" Wait until I wake up " I snapped , my eyes still closed .

It was quiet for a few moments .

I let out a small sigh of relief before cuddling back into my pillow .

Lachlan knows I stayed up late editing a video and fell asleep at about 5 this morning . I need my sleep .

" Maddie , " Lachlan whispered , breaking the silence . " Are you awake ? ".

" No ".

" But you're talking to me right now " he responded .

" Fuck off " I replied .

It was silent again and I feared that I had taken it too far .

The bed shifted and soon Lachlan's arm was draped around me , burying his face in my neck .

I started to drift back off to sleep when Lachlan creeped his hands up to my sides .

" Maddie " he whispered as he started tickling my sides .

I squirmed under his touch , trying my best to not laugh .

" Lachlan , stop " I said , letting a giggle slip from my lips .

" I will , when you get out of bed " he teased .

" Okay ! I'm up ! I'm up ! " I cried in defeat ; opening my eyes and sitting up .

I turned to face him . " I hate you ".

" I love you too " he replied , kissing me on the cheek .

I threw the covers to a side , getting out of bed stretching .

• After Getting Ready In The Bathroom •

I walked out of the bathroom feeling refreshed while Lachlan was scrolling through his phone on the bed .

" Did everyone already eat breakfast ? " I asked , tying my hair into a ponytail .

" Chipotle " Lachlan replied , a thin smile spreading across his face .

I let out a chuckle . " That's more like lunch than breakfast ".

I grabbed my phone from the charger .

" So , you excited for Arcadia ? " Lachlan asked , getting up from the bed .

" Yeah , it's going to be hype out of Skype " I answered in a fake posh Australian accent .

Lachlan let out a laugh as I opened the door and stepped out into the hallway .

Without any warning , a bucket came crashing down on my head ; a warm stinky liquid going down my shirt .

" What the fuck ! " I yelled , removing the bucket from my head and violently throwing it to a side .

A bunch of laughter filled the room . I wiped whatever ' it ' was from my eyes to come face to face with Preston , Alyssa and Mat ; each of them recording the moment .

" Good morning ! " they all cried in unison .

" Oh fuck you guys . What is this ? " I asked , looking down at my shirt that was covered in what looked like a mixture of spoiled milk and orange soda . It smelled horrible .

" It's milk , water , orange juice and chunky tomato sauce " Preston listed .

" You guys are so bad . Honestly , like I just got ready ! " I cried .

" Did you prank her yet ? " Mitch yelled from downstairs .

" Yup ! " Lachlan cried from behind me .

I turned around to see him recording as well .

" Not you too ! " I cried .

I gave him a playful shove before brushing pass him and back into the bathroom to take a long shower .

• Later That Afternoon •

" Everything's good to go ? " I asked Mitch who had just put on his seatbelt .

Everything is packed and we are ready to head to ArcadiaCon .

It's going to be so much fun , I can't wait .

This is my first time ever going because after all I am only 18 and before then I was kinda under my moms roof and had to get her permission to do anything really .

It was upsetting since I was a YouTuber but I wasn't allowed to go to all the cool Youtube events .

Mitch nodded in response before turning on the car , the engine roaring to life .

I rested my head on Lachlan's shoulder , putting in my earbuds ; letting 5 Seconds of Summer's She's Kinda Hot blast through .

Mitch signaled Jerome that he was ready to go before pulling out of the driveway .

Mitch's car was a 5 seater as well as Jerome's .

The drive to Fort Lauderdale ( where ArcadiaCon is being held this year ) is about a 4 - 5 hour drive from Tampa .

The squad had to move into the two cars with Mitch , Jessica , Lachlan , Preston and I in this car and Jerome , Alyssa and Mat in the other .

Mitch pulled onto the road , speeding away from the house ; hitting the highway .

Arcadia here we come ...
