14 | I Had Only Fifteen Minutes

I woke up with my eyes half-closed when my alarm rang for the third time. I was annoyed by the constant loop of the sound. I know I chose that sound so that I would get irritated and wake up but today wasn't the day I wanted to wake up early. I was having such a beautiful dream about Austin and I that I didn't want to get interrupted.

I grabbed my phone and clicked the power button to check the time and it displayed 7:45 in bold letters. I leaped out of my bed instantly as I realized I had only fifteen minutes to pack my bags, get dressed, have breakfast, and inform my mom about the trip.

I scurried inside the washroom and began freshening up. I brushed my teeth as soon as I could and wore my clothes while I did that. I chose to wear blue jeans and a basic white top. I looked at myself in the mirror and looked pretty.

I soon remembered that Austin asked me to wear something good and red. Well, he didn't ask me to wear red but he kind of gestured towards it.

So I undressed as fast as I could and wore a high-waisted black mini skirt and a loose red crop top with a white bralette underneath it. Earlier I had pulled my hair in my usual ponytail but with this outfit, I decided to let them down.

I clicked my phone to check the time and it turned out to be 7:55. Despite the panic I had internally, I managed to apply some makeup on. Lastly, I packed a few outfits in a small carry-on bag. I also threw in my toiletries, makeup bag, a pair of flip-flops, and a sling bag.

Furthermore, I filled a medium-size black handbag with all my essentials like my phone, charger, earpiece, travel-size perfume, etc.

I clicked the power button on my phone again and it displayed the time 8:01. I panicked even more. They could be here any moment now. So I grabbed my luggage and rushed downstairs where my mom was peacefully sitting and having her breakfast.

She was taken aback as soon as she saw me running down holding my bags.

"Hey, what's the rush honey?" my mom asked, "and where are you going with all of those bags?"

"Uh, mom. I'm glad I got to see you. Actually Rose and I are going out on a small trip for the weekend. I hope you don't mind" I spoke as fast as I could.

I instantly took a seat on the dining table and started eating.

"Trip? With Rose? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" she asked

"Uh, actually, I didn't want to go on this trip myself but then Austin insisted so I had to agree," I said without thinking

"Austin? Oh, so there are boys on this trip too? Is that why you're so dolled up?" she asked poking her elbow

"What? Mom!," I exclaimed, "It's not what you think. It's just a casual trip with my friends that's all. I'll be back soon."

"Oh, alright dear. Whatever you say," she replied resuming her meal with a wide smile on her lips

Ever since I was a kid my mom had this "sarcastic" statement thing that she would do whenever she tried to either "play cool" or "gesture that she understood the double meaning in the conversation", whatever it was I never liked it. It was odd and embarrassing. Parents aren't supposed to do such stuff. But would my mom listen? Of course not.

Just then I heard three honks outside my house and I realized that the "gang" had come. So I got up and stuffed my face with as much food as I could.

"Slowly honey," my mom said as she watched my speed. "won't you be inviting your friend's in?" she asked

"No mom. We're already late," I managed to say.

Before my mom could do or ask anything else I grabbed my luggage and rushed out. Austin came to help me with my bags as soon as he saw me

"I'll take that," he said grabbing my bags

"Oh, look at that beauty. Stunning and Hot," Jake said as I arrived at the seven-seater car.

"Jake. Mind your language," Austin said sternly before anyone else.

"Oh, my bad," Jake joked

"You look lovely," Jason said to me

"Thank You,"

"Yes. Baze, you look gorgeous," Austin said sitting next to me

Jason was driving the car, Austin and I were sitting in the back seat, and Jake and Rose were sitting behind us. Yes, Jason was sitting alone in the driver's seat.

But, it wasn't that bad, he had filled the passenger seat with all kinds of snacks and beverages. As he motioned his hand to grab a drink Austin said,

"Careful Jace. Don't you dare spill a drop,"

"Is this your car?" I asked Austin

"Yup. I am the proud owner of this beauty," Austin replied as he spread out his hands

"Then why aren't you driving?" I asked

"Because he wanted to sit next to you and adore your beauty," Jake replied popping in the middle.

"Rose, will you take care of your belongings, please. It's quite troublesome," Austin shot back

Everyone had a hearty laugh.

"But you have to admit, red does really suite Hazel, doesn't it?" Jake said

"What is there to admit, isn't it evident?" Austin answered back winking at me.

I smiled.

"Of course it is. After all miss. Fashionista has it on, what else do you expect?" Rose commented sarcastically

I looked back at her just like everyone else did.

"What's wrong? What happened to you?" I asked her

"Nothing much, just you happened," Rose answered sharply

"Rose," I said, "What is it? Did I do something?"

"When I insisted you for coming to this trip you declined and now out of nowhere you wanna join and you didn't even bother telling me. Moreover, I got to know about it from Austin rather than you. Which mean he knew you were coming and I didn't," she said angrily

"Rose. Text. Now," I said and both of us looked into our phone. I immediately began typing and Rose waited for me to send. A few seconds later Rose read my messages. The boys tried to peak but failed as both of us made sure that no one else could see what we were talking about.

"Awww. That is so freaking cute," Rose said after she was done reading.

I had texted her everything that had happened last night and how Austin "persuaded" me to come and how he had asked me to glam up and wear something red, etc.

"I adore you guys," Rose said with an enormous smile on her face.

*********

"Is anyone hungry?" Jake asked as he has been driving for the past twenty minutes

"Yup," we all said in a unison.

"So do you guys want McDonald's or Taco Bell,"

"McDonald's," We all agree after a brief debate.

All of us placed our orders and walked around for a bit and after our meal, we all resumed on our road. A while later everyone felt sleepy and soon some of us dozed off.
