I woke up first, I moved my arms from her safely so she wouldn't notice. The floor had too many bumps and stops from driving. We're 5 minutes away supposedly. Z's music was still playing. I changed it to my phone, then waking up everyone. "What happened to 'I'm so excited!'?", half of us laugh and the others only wake themselves up. "This truck is too comfortable..." F runs her hands through A's hair. C only lays against the opening, looking confused, just muted.
Within the span of two minutes they were all up and jumping, literally. They were jumping and shouting the lyrics to '#BrooklynBloodPop'. Thankfully the driver wasn't real... They're interrupted by the hard break the car takes. They're all able to hold on to the handles on top
"I could've just drove" I say coming out the truck last. "It was fun okay" G says. We stand in front of such a huge, fancy place. Just looking up in awe. Manager M walks over to us. I see him out the corner of my eye but I was focused on how it's light shines while the sky's light this. "How are you, team?", "Hi Mr. M!" / "Good!" we all say. The others were walking over here. M takes us inside regardless, he talks to the people in the front and we're put in this extremely large room. It had space for like, 50 people. Such luxury just to enjoy ourselves? This company gets too rich, but, we did basically win over the world. Treating us like this is may be normal to them. "Just a heads up because I've already told the others, in this place, we cannot be together. They separate us by gender. We'll keep the door open anyway but when you hear a knock on the main door, we have to pretend like we weren't together... It's, a security thing.". Smells like paparazzi to me, "There's no paparazzi Z don't worry, it's just something we can only discuss at work.", "Yes sir" we all silently say. "And... keep affection to a minimum", "Yes sir". This was a bit scary. Who is this 'They' he kept speaking about. We were definitely being watched, or even heard. What was going on? "We still came to have fun right gang!", "Whoop whoop!" we answer D. Manager M opened the door while he got the others. "I'm honestly just a bit scared", "Yeah they're definitely watching us" F answers A. "Girls, don't jump to conclusions" Z says. "We'll be fine, just... relax. I'm ready to have fun.". "Z, no door tag." I say playfully, "Aw man!" he matches. In all seriousness though we knew to not get in trouble. They're all back. When T and C hugged, T whispered in her ear. X slid her fingers into my hand, I flinched, "You heard already?", "Yeah" I whisper back. She squeezes my hand and walks in with us, "So how have you guys been?". "Good.", "Good" X says. K's doing that thing again. What did he like about X, G drags him into the other side. We all sat down. "Don't worry guys, we cant let it get to us" A says. "I know but... you guys don't understand it yet, but it's fine! We're gonna have fun right?", "Right" we all said. "Is there something you know that I don't", "There is" T answers X. "Let's... just start with some games or something!" F says, we agree. We all most likely had it in the back of our heads, I know I did. We spent some time laughing, telling jokes, and playing games. Then we were comfortable enough to do some karaoke. We cant hear them, but when you look over the boys have flashing lights and they've already started. "Ooo they have lights?". We slightly shut the door and try out the lights. Each preset was pretty, you can even make your own pattern and make your own loop. We made a rainbow strobe with flashing lights that sync to the rhythm or beat, playing a few songs to test it. Then we started too.
