We landed pretty quickly. The flight from Seattle was only like three hours.

After getting out of the airport with our luggage, we took a cab to the hotel we were staying at.

The Marriot was the tallest hotel in New York City and reviewed as the one of the best. We were very lucky to get individual rooms in this place.

As we walked in, we could tell his place was a catch. The lobby was surrounded by stone pillars and the floor was a crystal marble. The wall had like a gold wallpaper. The mood was very elegant.

"Wow." I sighed.

"Damn, this place is LEGIT."

We looked at Ross, who HAD to make such a great impression.

"Shut up, Ross!" Max whispered-yelled.

"Sorry!" Ross whispered.

"Wait here, I'm gonna go check us in." Julia said and walked over to the front desk.

Ross, Max, and I sat on some couches by the front door. We immediately pulled out our phones and started Snapchatting and Instagraming the hotel.

"Shelby."

I looked up at Max. He had his lens faced towards.

"Hi!" I said with a smile.

I looked back at my phone and started to text my mom. I got in New York safe.

Julia came back five minutes later and gave us our room keys.

"Remember, you all have your own rooms so don't lose your key. You're not getting another one from one of us." she said.

We nodded as if we listened, but Max and I knew that conversation was aimed towards Ross.

"Alright! Let's go!"

We made it to our rooms which were right next to each other.

"Okay, guys. See you in a bit!" Julia said, and we walked into our rooms.

I took one step into mine and I was amazed.

The room was so elegant. The bed was small, but comfy. The bathroom was big and spacious. There was a T.V. with a cool side table and two chairs next to it. The view was amazing.

I closed the door behind me and threw my suitcase on the side. I jumped on the bed and closed my eyes.

"Wow." I said smiling.

Then all I hear from the next room is, "Yo! This is the s**t!"

Oh my god, Ross.

Ten minutes later, after settling in, I texted Julia to ask where we were headed for dinner.

I put my phone down when a knock came from my door. "Shelllllllllby!"

I opened the door. "Hey, Max. Come in."

He looked around and sat on one of the chairs. "Wow, this is nicer than my room."

I smiled and sat in a chair next to him. "Yeah, this place is pretty nice."

He looked at the bed. "Wow, that would be way small for me."

I looked at him. "Why do you care? You're not sleeping in it." (Or is he? DUN DUN DUUUN)

"Just saying." He stood up and sat on the bed.

"Wait a minute. This is actually a pretty good size. He leaned back and laid on the bed, getting wrapped in the blankets.

I laughed. "Max, what are you doing?"

"Sleeping. Night, night." he said and closed his eyes.

"Oh, know you don't." I said started poking at him.

He smiled and grabbed my arms.

"Max!" I yelled.

He lifted me on the bed, me squirming.

"Max! Let me go!" I yelled smiling.

"Well, then you gotta escape the pillow monster!" he said as he wrapped himself in blankets and pillows.

I squealed and started slapping at him.

He sat me up and wrapped blankets around like a makeshift rope.

"Max! This is ridiculous! Let me go!" I said again.

I stopped squirming and looked at him.

He was wrapped in these blankets, all cuddly and cu-

"Okay, playtime's up." I said and jumped off the bed.

"Aww." he said and threw the blankets off of him.

I checked my phone and saw a text from Julia.

Pizza place? We can just order and eat together in someone's room?

Okay. I'll call a place and pick up the food with Ross.

I put down my phone and saw that Max was staring at my suitcase.

"Uh, Max? Whatcha looking at?" I said and saw he was looking at a photo of me with Ross on Halloween when we were kids.

"You look adorable." he said.

I smiled. "I was feisty."

"I'll bet." he chuckled.

"Alright, I gotta go order pizza for us. See you in a bit." I said as he walked out.

"Bye." he waved.

"Bye."

Why am I acting so weird?
