Freak In You (18+)

45 | They Aren't Me

♱Recommended song: Sin City By Chrishan♱

I adjusted the white bikini on my tanned body, flicking my long dark hair that had small strands braided in it behind my shoulder.

The trip in Sydney was sadly approaching its end, and the last thing that seemed to be on the itinerary was the foam party rave.

Dinner with Oprah was entirely enlightening, the radio show we hosted had us laughing until our stomachs hurt, and the mud bath and hot spring seemed to relax my nerves completely.

And while I got a good draft for my vows, I was still stressed—mostly due to my need of perfecting them, but also about the wedding that Noa kept assuring me would go smoothly.

But there were so many small details that I had to make sure worked out, and it felt like Noa was being a little too laid back about it.

"Ready?" Arya questioned, poking her head into my room.

I nodded to myself, pushing away the stressful thoughts as I slid my slides on and followed Arya out of the beachfront house.

It had really only been a day since I talked to Noa, but I still found myself missing her—craving her voice and touch.

The details of where they went still never got revealed, which seemingly made me more curious.

I hope she's having fun.

Well... not too much fun.

"Okay, so there's a back entrance we'll go through and then we'll get stamped before we can get in," Arya explained as she tucked her dark hair behind her ears.

I couldn't help but smile, "Thank you again for doing all of this," I said, easily making a smile light up on Arya's face.

"Oh, it was nothing," she said, clearly downplaying her part.

I only shook my head, "No one else would've possibly come close to planning such an amazing trip," I insisted, hoping she knew how much this meant to me.

Arya let out a long dramatic sigh, smiling as she said, "Fine, I guess I am a pretty amazing best friend."

I couldn't help but laugh, shaking my head at the suddenly cocky brunette.

"You are more than amazing," I said in agreement, giving her a side hug before the car inevitably came to a slow halt.

Arya clapped happily to herself, "We're here!" she said as she began climbing out of the car with me following behind her.

And as soon as we were out of the SUV my brows furrowed.

It was just an alleyway.

But before I could say anything to Arya, she was pulling me along toward the porta potty's that a man stood outside of.

The man's posture quickly straightened when he not only saw Arya and I, but the two men guarding us.

I'm not so sure he'll be letting us in...

"Isaac!" Arya greeted the man, who inevitably cracked a small, "It's so good to see you again," she said, wrapping the intimidating man in a brief hug.
