Chapter 1
"Ahhhhhh I can't believe we are actually doing this Gabbyyyyy" squeals Taylor
"I know" happily sighs Gabriella hoisting a large black bag into the boot of her car, "I can't believe it is actually happening. All of our adventurous plans usually fall through"
"I know ri- oof"
Gabriella turned round just in to see Taylor land on top of the last suitcase.
"You can't be tired already Tay, we've only been up two hours" says Gabriella teasingly.
"Oh shush you, I tripped. Stupid flip flops," mutters Taylor hopping on the spot rubbing her left foot.
Gabriella is clutching her sides and pearls of laughter erupt from her mouth.
"It's not that funny," mutters Taylor picking the offending suitcases up and shoving it in the boot.
"Sure, whatever you say" chuckles Gabriella slamming the boot shut with a wink for her scowling friend.
Taylor sticks her tongue out at Gabriella before they do there last minute checks.
"Road maps?" "Check" "Water bottles" "Check" "Purses?" "Check" "Sunglasses?" The two girls simultaneously grin at each other, turn to face the road and slide their glasses down from the top of their head. "Check!"
"Let's hit the road," grins Gabriella
Moments later the girls are into their drive and heading towards there first destination of…..
"Next stop Detroit!" hollers Taylor
2 hours later the girls are well into their journey towards Detroit with just over an hour to go before they reach there destination for the next 2 days. As they drive along they squabble like children over who gets control over the radio.
"You're meant to be driving keep your hands on the wheel," chides Gabriella a teasing note in her voice.
"Yes mother," mocks Taylor with a laugh in her tone.
Laughing the girls continue towards Detroit.
Once in Detroit the girls are quick to check into Double Tree Suites by Hilton Hotel Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby. Before hitting the town to see the sights.
"Okay, so what's first on the itinerary?" asks Gabriella
"So what's on the itinerary Tay?" asks Gabriella as the pair stroll down Detroit's high street. "Well, first we need to catch a bus" states her friend, consulting the map
"We're headed to Detroit River, then Metro Beach, and then back to the Hotel to freshen up before we hit Hotpot Thursday"
"The club?" asks Gabriella, raising an eyebrow
"Yeah and then the next day Freedom Hill Country Club," says Taylor
"Before we head to Chicago," laughs Gabriella
The girls don't bother to unpack before they are out of there hotel room and heading towards the Detroit River map in hand and all the provisions they need for the day.
The girls spend the next hour walking by the river, laughing and taking photos, before heading to Metro Beach.
The girls were sunning it up on the beach, sunglasses over there eyes and music pounding in there ears.
Taylor lifted her shades and peered over at the lifeguard sitting on the tower
"Now that, is a nice view" smirks Taylor
"Forgetting someone?" asks Gabriella
"Hmm" replies Taylor vacantly - still oggling the lifeguard
"Taylor," says Gabriella laughing
"Who?" asks Taylor laughing as she tears her gaze away.
"Um Chad your fiancée," replies Gabriella
"Oh him," laughs Taylor "There's nothing wrong with the looking now you on the other hand," she adds
"I'm perfectly happy being single thank you," smiles Gabriella
"For now….." adds Taylor, winking suggestively, "Wanna hit the waves?"
They spend an hour or so at the beach before realizing the time and heading back to the hotel to grab a quick bite. Before getting ready to hit the town for the night.
