"Baby hurry up," Jordy's voice flows through my phone speaker.

I huff as I zip up my suitcase.

"I'm trying Jordyn," I pointed out sarcastically.

"Don't get an attitude with me Elle, or I'll be coming up there myself," Jordy corrects my tone.

I roll my eyes as I shake my head.

"I'm coming down now," I inform her as I grab my phone from my perfectly made bed.

Jordy hums in acknowledgment causing me to hang the phone up.

I roll my suitcase out of the empty apartment before making my way toward the elevator.

Soon the cold air is wrapped around me as I walk over to my group of friends and a smirking Jordy.

"Finally," Jordy teases me as I walk closer to them.

"How did you manage to take longer than Journee? Let alone Eva?" Luca asks as he narrows his blue eyes at me.

I shake my head lightly as Jordy pulls me closer to her by my warm hand.

"I packed last minute," I retort sarcastically.

Nova and Eva walk away toward us from the open SUV trunk.

"Lets hope we can fit your bag," Nova jokes, which causes my eyes to playfully narrow at her.

Eva chuckles.

"Journee and Sebastian went to go get us hot chocolates," Eva informs me.

I nod as I roll my suitcase to them.

Nova scoffs dramatically.

"Who am I? Your chauffeur?" She asks jokingly as she makes a dramatically hurt expression.

"You're giving it to the Uber driver, so I wouldn't say it's that much work," I point out playfully.

Nova chuckles as she rolls the suitcase over to the driver.

"We got hot chocolate!" Journee's soft voice calls out.

Luca's blue eyes go wide as he runs over to her and Sebastian.

"He's such a child at heart," Jordy chuckles.

"Tell me about it," Eva shakes her head.

"I'll be right back," I untangle from Jordy's hold as I walk over to Journee and Sebastian who has drink carriers in each hand.

"Jour please tell me you got me—"

"Peppermint? Yes Bri how could I forget?" she cuts me off with narrowed eyes.

I roll my eyes with a smile as I grab the cup she motioned her manicured finger to.

"Thank you," I smile as I grab Jordy a cup too.

"Don't mention it," Journee smiles.

Sebastian shakes his head, "Definitely mention it—all the college students leaving for winter break were there," he adds as his warm breath fogs the air.

"Damn so I bet the line was long," Jordy's voice joins in on the conversation.

I hand her the warm to-go cup as her other arm wraps around my waist.

"Hell fucking yeah—which means we should probably leave so we don't get stuck in traffic," Sebastian suggests.

Journee instantly nods as Nova and Eva come over to grab a hot chocolate.

"So we're ready?" Luca questions as he joins our formed circle.

"Cars ready and packed," Nova hums.

Eva smiles, "This is going to be so fucking fun," she declares eagerly.

"If we don't get stuck in traffic..." Journee trails off as she sips her warm beverage.

"Yeah let's go—come on," Jordy urges.

We all walk toward the black shiny Escalade that's running with the warm heat on inside.

Jordy and I slide into the back row with Nova while Eva, Journee, and Luca sit in the row in front of us.

Meanwhile, Sebastian sits up front with the Uber driver as he begins conversing with him about football.

I furrow my brows when Luca rolls one of the tinted windows down.

"Luca what are you—"

"WINTER BREAK BITCHES!" his yelling cuts me off as he sticks his head out of the window.

We all burst into laughter at his excitement as cheers and whoops come from college students passing by.

"This is going to be a long trip," Jordy chuckles before she presses a warm kiss to my cheek.

It definitely is.

Soon we make it to Raleigh's international airport where we end up flying to upstate New York.

Since we all live over in Long Island, and Nova lives in the city of New York, we figured it'd be the perfect spot to stay for the week.

We're going to be staying up in the snowy mountains until the time comes to go back home for the holidays.

I'm so excited to spend Christmas this year with Jordy—and bring in the new year with her...

Celebrating holidays definitely becomes more fun when you have a significant other.

Soon enough we're taking our bags and suitcases into the three-level wood cabin.

The entry-level consists of the living room, kitchen, and dining room all with an open concept design.

The second floor only consists of bedrooms while the third floor has a game room, movie room, and stairs leading to a rooftop jacuzzi and entertainment area.

The basement also has a bedroom along with another entertainment area that consists of a bar, pool table, and living room.

Everyone ends up on the spaced-out second level while Jordy calls the bedroom down in the basement for us.

Before Jordy and I even had a chance to unpack, Journee was demanding everybody get changed so we can get in the hot tub on the rooftop.

Of course, Jordy had plenty of other things in mind rather than getting in a hot tub—unless we were going to be alone.

"Let's play never have I ever," Journee suggests as we sit in the large hot tub, which causes everyone to nod in agreement as we hold our spiked egg nog.

I smirk as I lock eyes with Journee.

She and I came up with a great prank to pull on Sebastian and Jordy.

We're purposefully going to say crazy never have I ever's and drink to them—even though we haven't really done it.

"Never have I ever snuck out and gotten away with it," Luca declares.

Nova turns out to be the only one drinking her eggnog, which is typical since she lives in the city.

"Never have I ever driven to school," she says as she tilts her bronze mug at us.

We all give her a skeptical look as we sip our egg nog.

"Low blow," Eva shakes her head lightly at the girl.

Nova holds her hands up in defense.

"Never have I ever had sex in a pool," Eva says which causes my eyes to instantly meet Jordy's.

We didn't technically have sex...

Journee makes a fake retching sound which earns a chuckle from Jordy.

"We didn't go that far—Jour chill," Jordy assures her sister.

Journee rolls her eyes.

"Never have I ever had a threesome," Journee says as her dark eyes flicker to me.

Jordy's gaze diverts to me, "Why is she looking—"

She cuts herself short when I sip my drink with a devious smirk.

I've actually never had a threesome, but this is a part of the prank Journee and I orchestrated.

"No fucking way," Luca gasps as Eva looks at me with wide eyes.

"I did not know you got down like that Bri," Nova chuckles.

Jordy tilts her head at me, "Neither did I," she points out as her dark eyes trace my features.

I purse my lips to hold back my growing smile.

"Never have I ever shopped at a sex shop," I say as I look directly at Journee who instantly sips her drink.

Sebastian tilts his head, "Wait when—"

"Oh, I have another one! Never have I ever joined the mile-high club," Journee purposefully cuts Sebastian off as she stares directly at me.

I feel Jordy's stare grow even more intense as I sip my drink innocently.

"What the fuck are you guys on?" Eva chuckles.

"For real" Luca shakes his head with an airy laugh.

I hold back my chuckle as I keep a forced smirk on my lips.

"Never have I ever pretended to fake an orgasm... oh wait," I sigh with furrowed brows.

Journee snickers as we both drink our drinks.

Everyone gives us amused looks while Sebastian and Jordy's faces display nothing but growing irritation.

Jordy's warm hand grabs the back of my neck, "Brielle—"

"Never have I ever sent nudes to the wrong person," Journee cuts off her sister.

Jordy's grip tightens on the back of my neck when I innocently drink my egg nog.

"We're leaving," Jordy declares lowly as she rises from her seat.

I tilt my head as she gets out of the hot tub, "No—"

"Brielle get the fuck out of the hot tub," she cuts me off which instantly makes me rise from my seat.

Maybe we took it a little too far...

"Good luck Bri," Luca snickers causing Eva to jokingly hit his shoulder.

"We're leaving too," Sebastian's deep irritated voice declares as he guides Journee out of the hot tub with him.

Nova chuckles, "Shit you guys," she shakes her head as I wrap a white towel around my black two-piece bathing suit.

Before I can say anything else, Jordy's guiding me into the large house by the back of my neck.

As we make it down the stairs, the silence seems to grow thicker as Jordy's grip tightens on the back of my neck.

Damn, I definitely took it too far.

"Baby I—"

"Don't Brielle," she cuts me off harshly.

Oh, she brought out the full name.

My stomach sinks even lower when we make it to our large bedroom.

"It was a prank," I blurt out as Jordy's dark eyes stare down at me.

Jordy shakes her head.

"I hope the prank was worth it," she narrows her eyes at me.

Tingles shoot through my body when she guides me backward to the large bed.

"Take it off," she motions to my black two-piece.

My body grows hotter as I instantly untie the top before mimicking the actions with my bottoms.

Once the wet bathing suit is on the floor, Jordy's dark eyes trace my exposed body.

I feel my core grow hotter and needier as her eyes drag back up my figure.

She guides me to sit on the end of the bed before she grabs my chin to align our eyes.

"Now..." she trails off as her hand slides down from my chin to lightly hold the front of my neck.

I suck in a sharp breath when she slides her knee between my bare legs—allowing her skin to barely graze my dripping core.

"You're going to be a good girl and take what I'm about to give you," she declares lowly.
