You sleep for most of the flight, catching only the snack trolly and landing. You can see the resort you are staying at for the next few weeks during the decent and these raises your spirits. Elegant beachfront hotels line the coast while you can see a water park further inland but your eyes don't really move past the white sands and the blue ocean. It's a beautiful site made better since there is no cloud in the sky.
When landed and fully stopped, the rush begins again and you are dragged along by a Lilly through passport control and to the baggage carousel. Luckily this time you are going a bit slower and manage to walk better in your heels but walking around with your arm linked with your indetically dressed twin draws some attention, from boys especially.
After what seems like an age, the airport workers finally begin sending your bags round and you are soon waiting outside the airport for your coach. When it arrives, the bags are loaded among those already on board and the three of you climb on with you at the rear. It quickly comes apparent from the huge amount of people on board that there are not enough seats and the only option is a pair of seats at the back. Your mom sits first by the window and Lilly quickly takes the other one sticking the tongue out at you. You look to the driver who indicates with a shrug that there is nothing he can do.
"Sit on Lilly's lap Holly, it will be fine, we won't be on here long." Your mom says dismissively.
Lilly begins to protest but after a long day of running around, the look your mom gives your sister makes it clear she is no mood to argue. Defeated, you lower yourself down so you are sitting across her lap. This causes some cooing from the elderly couple in the row next to you.
When settled , the coach starts its journey dropping off all the guests at their respective hotels.
As you drive, you marvel at the ocean views that you are treated too and also thank your lucky stars that the AC works on the coach otherwise they would have to peel you from Lilly's lap due to the heat.
Eventually, you all reach your luxury hotel which is deep into the resort and backs directly on to the beach. When disembarked, the driver unloads your bags, re-embarks and leaves the three of you at gazing up at the elegant building.
"Right guys lets get checked in and settled." Your mom says hauling the suitcases to the entrance. You and Lilly follow her with the hand luggage but as you approach the door, three men in Hawaiian shirts emerge and politely offer to take your bags indicating from their name tags and uniforms that they work here. You all accept their offer so you are left in front of the entrance clutching your purse.
"I really am cute" you murmur to yourself before being snapped from your trance by Lilly linking arms with you again and guiding you into the hotel.
The reception is clean and emasculate but you can see in the distance a beachfront bar area which is very much Hawiian rustic in style. You and Lilly gaze around in awe as your mom gets the room keys. The guests who pass you are predominantly in their twenties and early thirties however you make eye contact with a few girls around your age in shorts and bikinis who all smile at you both in a friendly manner.
Your mom returns giving Lilly a key. "There has been a little mix up. We don't have rooms next to each other, in fact you two are on a different floor than me but don't worry, I managed to get you upgraded to a luxury suit like me for the inconvenience."
"That's amazing mom" Lilly exclaims "Do we still have an ocean view?"
"You sure do, but I don't want you two to get distracted yet. Your bags have been taken to your room so I want you both unpacked before we decide on doing anything. I will give you a call when I'm finished so we can decide on what to do this evening but in the meantime Lilly is in charge." She turns to you. "You are to do what she tells you."
"That's unfair, why does she get to be in charge?" You protest as Lilly just smirks triumphantly.
"1. Because she's older, 2. Because she's been a girl longer and 3. Because I said so! I will see you both at dinner." At this she turns on her heels and heads to an elavator.
You look to Lilly who now grinning broadly. "Alright sis, you heard mom, I'm in charge and I say we...
