"Ofcourse" Isabella replied squeezing her palm in assurance.

"The food is here" Lauren's joyful voice broke the conversation between the two.

After handing over burger, fries and a Coke to Isabella and a grilled sandwich to Marissa. Lauren had gotten herself a pizza.

Once they started munching on the respective food It was Lauren who broke the silence.

"So what are you all doing for winter vacations?"

They had a revision test scheduled on Monday and the winter vacations were starting from Tuesday.

Although Lauren had asked the question to everyone, it was pretty clear that she and Marissa were going to do the same thing so the question was basically directed towards Isabella.

"Oh me! I am planning to surprise mom, dad, Sante and Lucas by going back home for the vacations" Isabella Replied with a chunk of burger in her mouth.

"What are you and Marissa doing?" Isabella asked.

"Obviously our parents want us to come back for the winter vacations and Marrisa wants to go back too but I cannot spend the next two months with my mothers family in their house so I was thinking that maybe we'll stay there for a couple of weeks and then we can go to a trip or something so if you are interested then the three of us can go together!" Lauren proposed the idea even though she already knew that Isabella was going to deny it.

Lauren had complicated family. She was really close to her father but she lost him when she was six year old and since then her mother had probably married twice. So she currently lived with Lauren's Second step father. Lauren could not forgive her mother for moving on so quickly after her father's death and that was exactly what had strained relationships between the two. Her mother didn't mind it a lot because she had another two kids with her third husband. But she expected Lauren to spend at least a week of her vacations with her.

Lauren on the other hand absolutely despised going back to New Jersey for this specific reason. every year she had to stay there for a week or so before she would get completely annoyed and irritated at her step siblings and her mothers family and then spend the rest of her holidays at Marissa's house where she was dearly will come as a second daughter.

"Honestly I would love to go on a vacation but if I Showcase this idea in front of my mother she is going to throw an emotional fit stating about how I spent my entire year with you guys and this is the time that I should spend with my family so at the end of the day I have to Spend my entire vacations at home even if I produced this idea so it's better that I wouldn't ask for something I know I would not get" Isabella chuckled.

"Well that's what you call as the perks of always being a good girl" Lauren laughed.

"You don't even call once when you go home!" Marrisa complained.

"You know how complex it gets with Sante and Lucas and mom and handling everything. I hardly get my own personal time" Isabella replied with an awkward smile.

"Chill belle! Mari is just teasing you" Lauren laughed followed by marrisa and Isabella.

"So when are you guys leaving?" Isabella asked.

"Tomorrow" Lauren answered.

"I mean the test is just a revision test and obviously Lauren's connection with Mr Johnson can come in handy sometimes so we decided to leave early" marrisa laughed.

"Much to my denial" Lauren commented with an annoyed face.

"When are you leaving?" Marrisa asked.

"Monday evening" Isabella replied finishing her coke.

"You know you can leave tomorrow right? I will talk to Mr Johnson" Lauren suggested.

"No.. I ."Before Isabella could continue Lauren cut her off.

"Relax it's not going to cost me anything more than sucking his Dick a few more.." Before Lauren could finish Marissa smacked her at the back of her head.

"That hurt" Lauren complained.

"Stop talking Gross then! He's still our teacher" Marissa countered back and Isabella only laughed.

When the three of them were done with their food they parted their respective ways.

Lauren and Marissa lived a little far away from the university in a shared apartment unlike Isabella who still stayed at the university hostel which was a few block away from the University.

She had already submitted an application to the head of the hostel stating that she will soon be leaving the hostel for her home for the winter.

Lauren and Marissa had insisted this multiple times that she could just come and stay with them in their apartment. Their apartment was a nice cosy 3BHK apartment where the three of them could easily share the rent as it was in a little less expensive part of the city.

And Isabella herself loved the idea of having the two of them as a roommate but Mrs Parker was not very happy to comply.
