Chapter XXXIV: The Great Beyond...
The hotel was magnificent. It held over 300 rooms. There were various sizes to fit each customer’s individual needs. Each of the HMS Trial Team members had been to a hotel previously, but none could match the one they were in for their competition. There were chandeliers everywhere; each space was brightly lit. The halls leading to the rooms were wide enough to fit a F-150 through, with no hassle.
As the four of them walked to the boy’s room, they made small talk about the Campus and had playful banter about what their first competition would be like. While they talked about that other stuff, it was clear what was on each of the member’s minds. They were growing tired of the single life and being alone on Campus. Each wanted to explore more. See more. Do, more. Yet, it never felt like the right time to say it. Was there ever, a, right, time?
“Welp.” Ralphy began. “We’re here. 415.”
“Yeah, we are.” Young said.
“Hey, I got an idea. How about yall come in and tell us how our suits looks for tomorrow’s competition Chanel and Ché.” Ralphy said.
“But there’s only one bath & two twins.” Young replied.
“Yall can change together.” Ché responded.
“Yeah, then we can change together.” Chanel said.
“No, I like my privacy.” Young said.
“Me too” Ralphy said.
“Okay, well Ralphy and Chanel, yall take 415, me and Ché will take 515.”
“Deal?”
“Deal.”
“Okay, done... Remember, the first scrimmage is at 8, so no funny business.” Chanel said as she walked into 415.
“Yes ma’am.” Ralphy replied as he made a funny face at Young, as he closed the door, to 415.
