"This is your captain speaking. We will be landing in about ten minutes and start to descend, so please take your seats and fasten your belts. Currently in Las Vegas it is 8:39 am and 70 degrees. Once  again, thank you for flying with United Airlines."

Sophia tapped her friends shoulder who was asleep, "Hey, wake up. We're about to be here." She opened the blind on the window to get the aerial view of Vegas below them. "I can't wait to see what it looks like at night."

"We're also here really early, what are we going to do about all of our luggage?" Angelina asked, rubbing over her eyes. "Oh, I'm ahead of you there. I set the room to start yesterday and going until tomorrow morning. I knew we would be here early so I figured that would be what's best. The last thing we would want to do is be dragging this with us everywhere."

"And what do we do with it tomorrow when the room is up?" Sophia looked over at her. "You ask a lot of questions, you know that?" She let out a laugh. "Once we get our luggage and get off of here, we go to our designated car rental. This trip was my idea, remember. You took care of the plane tickets, I took care of the hotel and got a rental car ready for the week. The only thing is that on our last day we'll have to drive from Los Angeles back to here to return it, and fly back home."

"You really do think of everything. I just can't wait to hit up a dispensary, gotta get myself right for this trip."

"Oh, I already know." The two let out a laugh as Sophia turned her head to watch out the window. It always gave her butterflies in her stomach to watch them descend from so high up, watching the city draw in closer and closer.

Once they landed, both unbuckled themselves and swung their purses onto their shoulders. Angelina got up to open the cabinet up that was above their seats to pull both of their suitcases out. They stood in place and waited as the people from the front of the plane began to shuffle off and exit.

As their turn came they walked down the aisle and thanked the flight attendant and pilot on their way out. "I can't believe we're finally here in Sin City."

"It's also amazing that we were able to come here without any of the guys. A week away for the girl's was an entire level of something new. The two walked through the airport to get to Hertz, where Sophia rented the car from. It took about fifteen minutes to go through the paperwork, show her credentials and make the payment. After that was done she was given the keys and they walked into the garage where a black Jeep was waiting for them.

"This was most likely going to be the only time I could ever drive a Jeep, so I had to jump on the opportunity." They looked around the garage until they found the car which was close to the exit, which also meant sitting in less garage traffic. She pushed the button on the keys to unlock the car and popped the trunk, setting both suitcases in.

Sophia opened the door to the drivers side and got in, starting the car up to type in the address for the hotel as Angelina closed the trunk and got into the passenger side of the car.

3600 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV, 89109.

"No fucking way, we're staying at the Bellagio?!" Sophia could hear the utter excitement from her friend and couldn't help but laugh. "Girl, we're living our best lives on this trip. Breakup who?"

"It's about a twenty minute drive, so not bad. Let's grab some food on the way there though, I'm starving."

Angelina hooked her phone's Bluetooth up to the car, a sly smirk forming on her lips as she looked over at her friend. "You already know what's about to go down!"

Suddenly the song "Me & U" by Cassie started playing. The two began to sing the song in unison, if you couldn't tell, it was their favorite.

"You've been waiting so long, I'm here to answer your call.
I know that I shouldn't of had you waiting at all.
I've been so busy, but I've been thinking 'bout,
What I wanna do with you.
I know them other guys,
They've been talking 'bout the way I do what I do.
They heard I was good, they wanna see if it's true.
I can see you want me too."

Sophia stopped at a red light and rolled the lights down, the two having the time of their lives already as they sang their hearts out.

"Now it's me and you.
It's me and you, now.
I've been waiting,
Think I wanna make that move now,
Baby, tell me if you like it.
It's me and you now,
I've been waiting.
Think I wanna make that move now,
Baby, tell me if you like it."

The two sang along to Angelina's playlist until Sophia made a right turn into a parking lot. It wouldn't be a trip to the West Coast if you didn't get In-N-Out when you arrived. They pulled into the drive through and waited on their turn to order.

Ten minutes had passed by and Sophia pulled up to the drive they speaker. "Welcome to In-N-Out, what can I get for you today?"

"Hi! Can we get four double doubles with no tomato, two small fries, and two large root beers."

"Alright I have four double double's with no tomato, two small fries, and two large root beer's. Is that correct?"

"Yes sir." She said, getting her wallet ready.

"Anything else I can get for you today, ma'am?"

"No thank you, that would be all."

"Alright, your total is 17.08 and you can pull up to the window."

"Thank you." She said before pulling the car up. There was one car in front of her that was currently paying for their food. It took a few minutes until they got their order, but once they did they rushed to get out of the parking lot.

"See, that just proves you can go anywhere and people continue to drive like idiots." Angelina said as they pulled up to the window.

"Hi, your total is 17.08." She nodded and handed her debit card over for the person to charge it. The man handed her card back to her with the receipt which she hurried to put away because he was ready to hand the drinks over.

She took the drinks from him and set them in the cup holder, handing a straw over to Angelina.

"It'll be just a second, I'm waiting on the fries." He said before closing the drive thru window so he could take an order for someone that was waiting at the speaker. She removed her straw front he wrapper and set it aside, stabbing the straw through the lid and taking a long swig. To say she was thirsty from the flight still was an understatement.

"What a great breakfast, huh?" She let out a giggle. It was only 9:30, but she couldn't resist letting this be one of the first things they did.

Once the man finished taking the order the window swung open and he handed the bag over. "Here you ladies are, have a great day." He said with a smile. She handed the bag over to Angelina and pulled away from the drive through to go to towards the exit of the parking lot. Next stop was the Bellagio.
