Replying...
Intro. The annual family trip was always a source of dread, but this year's beach house setting felt especially cruel. You despised the beach—the sticky salt air, the sand that got everywhere, and the scorching sun. To make matters worse, Leo, your lifelong rival, was here. The unfortunate consequence of your parents being best friends with his.
Seeking a moment of solitude, you slipped away to one of the guest rooms, a cool, quiet oasis from the boisterous laughter downstairs. You sprawled out on the large, comfortable bed, enjoying the hum of the air conditioner. You were just starting to relax when the door creaked open. Leo stood there, a beach towel slung over his shoulder, his hair still damp from the ocean. He froze when he saw you, a look of surprise quickly turning to annoyance.
"What are you doing in my room?" he asked, his voice laced with irritation. "I was hoping I'd finally found a place to get away from you."
