Somehow both the girls
convinced their parents
that they were old enough
to travel alone and that
they'd be safe. Explaining
every aspect of the trip
and lying about some things,
so that their parents would
agree and see how prepared
they were for such an
impulsive trip.

The girls put their bags in
Brielle's SUV, deciding
that'd be better to take
than Lilliana's sedan.
Especially because while
Lilliana only had one large
suitcase, Brielle had two
large suitcases and a duffle
bag. It looked like the girl
was moving out.

Before the girls left, they
called Lilliana's aunt to
ask if they could stay at
her townhouse in
Brooklynn, which was
still a little under an hour
away from Troy. She
said she wasn't there but
the girls were free to
stay there as long as it
was kept nice.

It seemed like everything
was coming together for
the Lilliana, even though
she felt like everything
was crashing down. She
was excited to be so close
to Troy, but anxious
knowing what she was
going there to do. She
hadn't opened up to
someone in so long, this
was way out of her comfort
zone.

The girls left in the
morning around 8 am. This
was so they would get there
by 2 pm if they didn't make
any stops. After the first
two hours, Lilliana watched
Brielle chug two iced coffees
while driving, and knew
they would be stopping.

By hour three Lilliana was
driving, the girls had
switched during the
restroom break. Brielle
was reluctant to let the
girl drive, but the caffeine
didn't really work and she
was not a morning person.
So, as soon as Brielle got
in the passenger seat she
fell asleep.

When the girls arrived at
the townhouse, they typed
in the keycode on the door
and walked in. Lilliana
rolling her one suitcase
and Brielle rolling her two,
while balancing her duffle
on top of one the suitcases.

"BITCH this is nice! What's
your aunt do again?" Brielle
exclaimed ditching her bags
to wonder around the first floor.

Lilliana walked into the
living room, "She's an
executive for an airline
company."

Brielle scoffed in awe from
the kitchen, "I had a house
just like this saved on my
Zillow account! Hold on,
I'm looking this house up."

"Brielle, why are you saving
houses on your Zillow
account, when we had to
double check if we had
enough money in our
accounts to buy Dunkin'?!"

"THIS HOUSE IS THREE
MILLION DOLLARS, CAN
YOUR AUNT BE MY SUGAR
MAMA?"

Lilliana laughed, "Proabably,
I bet she's lonely."

Brielle raised her eyebrows
at the family tea, "Yeah, why
does she have all these rooms?"

"I don't know. She's travels
too much to enjoy it," Lilliana
stated as she watched her
bestfriend make her way back
to the living room.

"Well at least we get to enjoy
it, maybe Troy can come here,"
Brielle said wiggling her
eyebrows while flopping
down of the couch.

"Yeah. Maybe, if he wants to.
Better than driving an hour
to Long Island and back
everyday we're here."

"True sis," Brielle said
lifting her hand.

Lilliana sat on the couch,
scooting closer to Bri, "What
about Vinnie?"

"What about him?"

Lilliana rolled her eyes, "Is
he coming?"

"Yeah, he'll be here tonight."

"What? When were you
going to say something?"

"You knew he was coming,
like Vinnie would say no to
hanging out with us."

"True."

The girls fist bumped each
other, and sighed looking at
the ceiling.

"I call the biggest guest
room!" Brielle said springing
up and grabbing her duffle
bag, before running upstairs
to look at the bedrooms.

For the first floor only had
the living room, kitchen,
dining room, an office, and
a restroom. While the upstairs
had the master, two guest
bedrooms, and each bedroom
had a restroom connected to
it.

"Elle if the boys stay here
were sharing a room,"
Lilliana said slowly
following her up the stairs.

Brielle poked her head
out of a guestroom, "Ana..."

"I don't want Troy sleeping
with me, what if I drool or
have bad morning breath..."

"You do, BUT that boy thinks
you're a goddess. He would
proabably fall in love with
you," Brielle said going
back into the room.

Lilliana followed her in,
"Fine. But only because I
know you and Vinnie are
nasty, and I don't want me
or Troy to sleep in a bed
you guys are doing the
nasty on."

Brielle faked hurt, "You
know you and Troy are
just as bad. Don't act like
you're not getting laid
while we're here. We're
unsupervised in New York
with boys, and our parents
don't know half of what
were doing. I won't let you
be a goody-two-shoes!"

"I can't even think about
sex right now, I'm still
bummed. Kind of the
whole reason for this trip."

Brielle rushed over to her
friend, hugging her way
too tight. "Awe pobrecita.
Let's have fun, you need
it. We we'll do everything
you need to do and more."

"Thank you," Lilliana
muffled into Brielle's chest.
When the shorter girl came
over to hug her, she grabbed
her by her head pulling her
into her warmth, hugging
her head to muffle the cries
she thought was going to
happen. Lilliana didn't
think it was weird, but
she didn't need to cry so
it was just making talking
hard. "I'm going to call Troy."

"Alright, I'm going to bring
my bags to this room." Brielle
said releasing the girl.

Lilliana rolled her eyes. Both
the guest rooms were
practically the same size,
"Alright, I'll be in my room."

Brielle smirked, "You and
Troy's room...."
