"Flight 213 to Atlantic City now boarding." The attended said over the loud speaker.

Naomi stood and handed me my flight ticket. Atlantic city. So that's where we're spending my bachelorette party? I've never been before but I've always wanted to go so I wasn't entirely disappointed. What could we possible do in Atlantic city for an entire week, except gamble our life savings away and pass out intoxicated on the pier. I guess I'll find out soon enough.

"Atlantic city? That's the best you could come up with?" I joked following her through the terminal.

"The best is yet to come." Naomi smiled. I took her words to heart as I followed her down the corridor.

We boarded the plane and I fought Naomi for the window seat. Seeing that this was for my bachelorette party, she allowed me to win. I sat down in my seat and closed my eyes. My eyelids were heavy from lack of sleep and my head was beginning to pound. This was not how I wanted to start off my weekend. I had to force myself away as the flight attended prepared us for takeoff.

I jolted in my seat as the plane began to glide into the air. I've always had a fear of on planes and the turbulence was adding to it. Naomi reached over to grab my hand, I glanced at her and she sent me a reassuring smile. Before long, the plane was sailing smoothly through the air and I relaxed back into my seat.

It was almost a four hour flight and I couldn't help but wonder why we didn't just drive, it would have only taken half the time, even with traffic. I glanced out the window as we descended through the clouds back down to the ground. Everything seemed so small from up here, but the view was absolutely beautiful.

Landing was almost as bad as taking off and I vowed to never get back on this plane again. The three glasses of champagne I had didn't help the anxiety I was feeling until we finally reached the ground again.

It was a hassle grabbing our luggage after we exited the plane but once we stepped outside of the airport the tension melted off my shoulders. Along the curb was cab after cab, vacant and waiting for anyone who needed a lift. I followed Naomi to the vehicle and the driver got out to help put our luggage in the trunk.

"Welcome to Atlantic City, are you here for business or pleasure?" He asked opening the back door for us.

"Oh, definitely pleasure." Naomi winked before sliding into the back seat of the cab. I shook my head at her and thanked him before sliding in behind her. "We're heading to Ceasers Palace please."

The drive from the airport to the hotel was quick as we pulled up to the front entrance. The hotel was beautiful, standing several stories tall against the adjacent casinos. The interior of the hotel was just as alluring. We headed for the escalators that brought us up into the lobby. The ceiling was high above us, painted a bright blue with clouds scatted throughout. Perfectly molded sculptures stood between the pillared windows on the right side of the building where the check-in desk was located on the left. It had felt like you were walking through time, it was breathtaking.

We made our way past the lobby with our room keys, trying to find the ocean tower elevator to get to our suite. The sound of slot machines and cheering rang through my ears as we stepped into the elevator making me thrilled to explore the casino. Naomi hit the button for our floor and we quickly ascended. We couldn't keep the smile off our faces as we jogged down the long hallway to our room. We skidded to a stop when we approached a set of golden double doors with the room number 1789. I couldn't help but notice the suite was equipped with a doorbell on the right side of the door as Naomi slid the key into its slot. She opened the door we rushed inside, leaving our luggage in the hallway.

The emperor suit was captivating equipped with a private bedroom, living room, dining room, bar area, and two bathrooms. Every orifice of the room screamed luxury and I wouldn't dare ask her how much this cost. After checking out each room the suite had to offer, Naomi started jumping on one of the couches in the living room with her hands flying into the air.
