I'm not really in the mood to do anything today. I pretty much just put on a fake face and act like I'm enjoying my time here. I've been in a bad mood since yesterday and I hate being the kill joy in a group.

It's hard not to feel like the life is being sucked out of you when your boyfriend is basically acting all flirty with his ex-girlfriend.

Maybe I should just talk to him. It does sound like a bad idea for them to stay friends and at this point I don't even care if it makes me sound like a selfish, bitchy girlfriend anymore.

I can't stand the thought of losing him. The one constant of happiness in my life.

It's super early in the morning and I'm busy getting ready in the bathroom when I hear Harry walk in, laughing and all sweaty.

"I obviously won because you're a cheater and took the shortcut!" Harry yells out into the hallway and laughs to himself before closing the door behind him. "Oh, hey, Ria," he says as soon as he spots my head sticking out of the bathroom.

His body glistens with a thick layer of sweat running down his tattooed body. He kicks his running shoes off and uses the hotel towel to wipe at his head before sitting down on the chair to catch his breath.

I walk over to where he's sitting with his eyes closed and his head leaning back against the wall.

"You guys are crazy for going out on a run during a vacation," I comment and he opens his eyes to look at me now standing right in front of him. He stands up from his seat and starts to strip down before planting a small kiss on my forehead and walking towards the bathroom.

It takes almost every fiber in my entire body to not look down his body. I know that if I do, our entire day's schedule will be delayed.

"I would've thought Lou would want to take a break from all the driving she did yesterday and just sleep in," I mention and follow him into the bathroom. He steps fully into the shower when I grab my toothbrush from the holder.

"Oh yeah, she was a log this morning. We tried pulling her out of bed but she wouldn't budge so Jules and I just went without her," he says nonchalantly.

Oh.

I try to keep my anger at bay before I lash out and when I glance over at Harry through the mirror, he's still smiling to himself as if he were reminiscing on the time he spent with Jules just moments ago.

Breath in. Breath out. Breath in. Breath out. Breathe in. Walk over to Jules' hotel room and punch her in the face. Breath out.

♩♫♪♬

Despite the fact that Harry and I are walking hand in hand, I still feel so distant from him.

"Alright, I think that's enough for me," I say to the group referring to the rollercoaster ride we just got out of. "I think that if I ride another one, I'll throw up," I say and we all sit on a nearby bench to catch our breaths and steady our heart rates.

"Me too," Harry agrees and Juliette shoots him a smirking look. "I'm still not giving up though," he huffs out and shoots up from his seat and jumps in place to show that he's ready for the next ride.

"You guys are fucking insane," Lou comments and laughs.

"What's going on?" I ask in curiosity.

"Jules and I are having a challenge that whoever gives up, throws up, or passes out first, loses," Harry says and Juliette punches him playfully in the arm.
