"Girl, I don't think you're ready for this." My best friend Ana proclaimed. We were on our way to the airport to catch a flight to Fort Lauderdale, where our cruise port was. Ana and I have been waiting for summer break since we purchased the tickets last year in late July, and it was finally here. I decided to drive since Ana could barely contain her excitement.
"Sis, i've been ready since July 29th. Can you sit back so I can drive?" She rolled her eyes and looked out of the window. The traffic began to get a little heavy, and before we knew it we were at Nashville's intl. Airport.
Ana shot up. "7 days, y/n! we out this bitch for SEVEN FREAKING DAYS!" she began to do a mini dance in her seat and I couldn't help but smile.
We deserved it. We had just completed our senior year of high-school and got accepted into Howard, the college we knew we wanted to go to since sophomore year.
My heart fluttered at the thought of being at the Bahamas in a few days.
I shook my thoughts and focused on the road. This airport got confusing quick.
Once we arrived at the parking gate, I pulled a ticket and drove forward. We found parking and I put the ticket in the window shield and shut off the car. Ana hopped out and went to the back to grab the suitcases.
Once we had everything in order we walked towards the airport.
After checking our bags and going through security, there was a 20 minute wait before I flight was called. I hated waiting and made sure to leave the house as late as Ana would allow us.
"Flight 224, Fort Lauderdale is ready to board. If you are a part of our Sky-Miles loyalty program , active military, or..."
I woke Ana up and started to get our things together. She threw our food wrappers away and put on a jacket since airplanes got pretty cold.
"Group 3. We are ready to board group 3."
"That's us." I mumbled, walking towards the line.
I shot my mom a quick text telling her we were boarding the plane.
🤰🏽💗: Okay sweetie, safe travels !🏝🛫💃🏾
I chuckled at her use of emojis and put my phone on airplane mode.
Here we come, Florida. _____ We landed a few hours ago and just arrived at our hotel.
despite the fact that we were only staying in this hotel for a day, my dad splurged on a nice hotel near Port Everglades, where our cruise will be leaving tomorrow. I made a mental note to thank him when I got the chance.
"This is beautiful!" Ana squealed. The uber drove past a sign reading "Lago Mar Beach Resort" I pulled out my phone and took it off airplane mode. I paid the uber and thanked her for the help with our suitcases and she went on her way. I didn't think it could get any better until I walked inside.
The lobby had a tropical retro feel to it which i couldn't help but admire. At the check in desk, there was a man who appeared to be in his mid 50's dressed to the nines. Ana took a couple of photos and I did the same, sending one to my dad with a thanks. There were a group of men in front of us. one of which who seemed to be having trouble with his room key. "Aye Keith, we going to the casino, meet out there when you get this situated." One of them spoke. The one who I'm assuming was Keith nodded and they all walked off except for him.
"Alright sir, we can fix that. If you'll follow Mr.John over there he can be of assistance." The man pointed to another well dressed male. He wasn't as well dressed with his collared shirt, but the creased khakis and dress shoes made up for it.
"Thank you." Ana took this as an opportunity to walk forward and begin checking in. I was so busy on snapchat that I didn't realize I was about to walk into the person in front of me.
He turned around and I bumped into the man's chest, dropping my phone. I looked up at him and my heart dropped. His eyes glistened with slight annoyance, and I immediately backed up.

I realized the my phone was no longer in my hand. I looked down to see it screen-side up, no cracks in sight. It was an iPhone with glass backing, and I immediately dropped down to get it. There was a long crack on the back running through the apple logo. Something told me not to take my case off. "Great..." I mumbled, stuffing the device in my back pocket.
I looked up again and his eyes softened. "Damn, I'm sorry about that." I shrugged it off. "It's fine. Its only on the back, i'll live." "Are you sure? I can get it fixed for you." I waved him off. "No, no. Its okay, I promise." I shot him a reassuring smile. He nodded and took one last look at me before quickly licking his lips and maneuvering around me, placing his hand on my lower arm and walking into the distance.
"Hope I catch his ass on this cruise. Let's go, we're on the 12th floor."
Ana nudged me out of my daydream and i quickly grabbed the suitcase and pulled it along to the elevator.
