"Wait, have you packed?" I asked Jake and my dad, as we were all sat on the couch watching elf

"Yep, and I've packed for you as well" Jake smiled at me

"Seriously?" I looked up at him, smiling

Now that is why Jake is my best friend, I wondered where all my clothes went...

"I'm the best, I know" Jake said, flipping his non existing long hair

"So what time do we leave?" I asked my dad

"2am, so maybe you two should get an early night"

Yeah, like that's going to happen.

Most people would probably think it's weird the fact that my dad lets Jake stay over, to me it's not weird at all.
I mean sure, my dad was hesitant when I asked if Jake could stay for the first time, but then I reminded him that Jake and I are just friends.

By the time elf had finished it was 11pm

"Well I'm going upstairs, try and get at least an hour of sleep kids" my dad said whilst walking up the stairs

"Do you actually want to sleep?" I looked over at Jake, who was yawning

"Not really, it's quite pointless" he shrugged

"Well let's go upstairs and watch Netflix" I said, getting up and switching the TV off

I feel bad for Jake whenever he stays over, I'm a bed hogger.

We decide on pretty little liars, typical for me and Jake

"Can I tell you something" Jake blurted

"Of course, you can tell me anything" I said, pausing the TV

He sat up and looked at me

"I don't know how to say this, you're the first person I'm telling" he said, sounding nervous

I just smiled and nodded

"I'm gay" he mumbled

I just smiled and hugged him

"I'm so proud of you, I'm so glad you felt like you could tell me that. Oh and by the way, I already knew" I said

"You did?" I notice a tear running down his cheek

"Of course I did, you're my best friend" I hugged him tighter

"I'm so proud of you, I love you so much" I said, causing him to cry harder

"I love you Gab, I'm so lucky to call you my best friend" he pulled away from the hug

"When are you going to tell your parents?" I questioned him

"When we get back from LA, I just needed to tell you first" he laughed

"Aww Jake, it'll be okay. They love you and they'll support you no matter what" I reassured him

"I know" he smiled

"Anyway, let's get back to PLL" he continued

-

Turns out me and Jake didn't actually get any sleep, oops

That's what the plane rides for, right?

"Come on then kids, we've got a plane to catch" my dad said, walking into my room

Okay maybe I'm a little excited to go to LA, I've never been there before.

My grandma usually comes over here to visit, we never go to her, I don't know why but hey ho.

"Gabby, hurry!" Jake shouted from the bottom of my stairs

I huffed a little and grabbed my suitcase and bag.

On the way to the airport I plugged my earphones into my phone and went onto vine

I came across someone named Taylor Caniff,

'Taylor Caniff' I repeated in my head

He sounds familiar.

I decided to watch some of his vines, I laughed at his stupidness

He's funny, and cute.

The car stopped, indicating that we were at the airport

-

Thankfully, I slept on the plane,
Despite the fact that Jake had fallen asleep on my shoulder, snoring right down my ear

After 11 and a half hours of being on the plane, we finally landed in LAX

The hot air hitting me as soon as I stepped off the plane

I looked at my phone, noticing I had a missed call from an unknown number

Without thinking I called them back

"Hello?" I spoke into my phone

"Gabby, is that you?" A male voice spoke

"Yes, who is this?" I frown

"Troye"

"What the hell do you want?" I asked, annoyed

Noticing my dad glance over at me

"I wanted to apologise, I shouldn't have done that to you. She made me do it-" I cut him off

"Wait, what?"

"Casey, she paid me to do it"

"She what?!" I dropped my bags

Jake, my dad, grandma and Nash all staring at me

Wait, Nash?
