The warm sunshine and gentle breeze made them both feel spontaneous, and they decided to take advantage of the relaxed atmosphere. Alex pulled out his phone and started searching for nearby destinations, while Maddie grabbed a notebook and began jotting down their preferences.

"I was thinking we could head to the mountains," Alex said, scrolling through his search results. "There's a cute little bed and breakfast in Asheville that I've been wanting to try out."

Maddie nodded enthusiastically as she wrote down "Asheville B&B" in her notebook. "That sounds perfect. I've been itching to get out of the city for a bit. What else can we do there?"

As they chatted, their ideas started to flow. They decided to visit the Biltmore Estate, take a hike in Pisgah National Forest, and explore the River Arts District. Maddie started making a rough itinerary, while Alex checked the B&B's availability and made a tentative reservation.

With their plans taking shape, they began to discuss the logistics. "I'll pack a bag with some hiking gear and comfortable clothes," Alex said. "You can start packing our nicer outfits for dinner and the Biltmore."

Maddie nodded and headed inside to start gathering their belongings. As she packed, she called out to Alex, "Don't forget to check the weather forecast and fill up the gas tank!" Alex responded, "Already on it!" As they worked together, their excitement grew, and they couldn't wait to embark on their mini-adventure together.

Maddie was immediately sold on the charming Victorian-style inn with a hot tub on the porch.

"I love it," Maddie said, snuggling into Alex's side. "Let's see if they have availability." Alex typed in their dates, and after a few minutes, they confirmed that the inn had a room available. They booked it and began making a list of things to pack.

Maddie jumped up from the couch and headed to the closet to start gathering clothes. "I'll pack some warm layers, just in case it gets chilly," she said, tossing a few sweaters into a bag. Alex continued to browse the inn's website, making a mental note of the local attractions they wanted to visit. "Hey, they have a wine tasting on Saturday afternoon," Alex said, "should we check it out?"

Maddie returned to the couch, holding up a pair of hiking boots. "Definitely. And we should hike to that waterfall we saw on the map." Alex nodded in agreement, making a note on their phone.

Ryan's eyes lit up. "That sounds great, but what about the drive? It's a bit of a haul."

"I know, but it's worth it," Emily replied. "Besides, we can make a day of it and stop at some of the scenic spots along the way."

Ryan nodded in agreement. "Okay, let's do it. When were you thinking of leaving?"

"How about tomorrow morning?" Emily suggested. "We can pack tonight and get an early start."

Ryan smiled and wrapped his arms around her. "Me too. It's going to be a great weekend."

Maddie nodded, her eyes scanning the pages of the guidebook. "I like that idea. And I found a cute B&B that looks perfect. It's called the Oakwood Inn – it's supposed to have a great breakfast spread and a cozy porch."

Alex grinned. "Sounds like my kind of place. Let's book it." He typed in the reservation details, while Maddie started making a packing list on her phone.

As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie sat at their kitchen table, scrolling through their phones and catching up on the week's news. The warm sunlight streaming through the window highlighted the relaxed atmosphere of their cozy home. They had been together for a few years now, and their weekends had become a cherished time to unwind and spend quality time together.

Maddie looked up from her phone, a mischievous glint in her eye. "Hey, I was thinking, how about we get out of here for a bit this weekend?" she suggested, her voice filled with excitement. Alex's eyes lit up as he set his phone down, intrigued. "That sounds great. Where did you have in mind?" he asked, leaning back in his chair.

Maddie pulled up a travel website on her phone and began browsing through options. "I've been itching to check out that new bed and breakfast in the mountains. The one with the hot tub on the deck?" she said, showing Alex the website. He nodded enthusiastically as he scanned the page. "That looks perfect. When were you thinking?" he asked.

"How about we leave Friday afternoon and come back Sunday evening?" Maddie proposed. Alex agreed, and they quickly started making plans. They discussed what to pack, what activities to do, and what restaurants to try. As they chatted, their excitement grew, and they found themselves laughing and joking like they used to when they first started dating.

With their plans in place, they began making a to-do list for the week, making sure they got everything done before their departure. As they finished their coffee, Alex stood up and pulled Maddie into a hug. "I'm really looking forward to this," he said, smiling. Maddie smiled back, already counting down the hours until their weekend getaway.


As the morning sunlight streamed through the windows, Alex and Maddie sat on the couch, laptops open, browsing travel websites. They had decided on a whim to take a quick weekend getaway, and now they were trying to figure out where to go. Alex suggested a bed and breakfast in the mountains, while Maddie was pushing for a beach town a few hours away. They bickered good-naturedly, their fingers flying across the keyboards as they showed each other their finds.

After a few minutes of debate, they compromised on a charming coastal town that offered a mix of both relaxation and outdoor activities. They booked a cozy Airbnb with a view of the ocean and made a mental note to pack accordingly. As they closed their laptops, Maddie jumped up and started rummaging through her closet, pulling out a stack of swimsuits and sundresses. Alex chuckled and joined in, grabbing a few of his favorite shirts and shorts.

As they began to pack, their excitement grew. They chatted about all the things they wanted to do: hike along the coast, try some local seafood, and simply enjoy the laid-back atmosphere. Maddie was thrilled to have Alex's input on her outfit choices, and he was happy to offer his opinions, playfully teasing her about her love of bright colors.

With their bags almost packed, they took a break to make some coffee and plan their itinerary. As they sipped their coffee, they sat on the couch together, mapping out their weekend. They decided to leave early the next morning, eager to make the most of their short trip. As they finalized their plans, they exchanged a look, both of them grinning from ear to ear. They couldn't wait to hit the road and start their adventure together.


As they sipped their coffee on the sunny Saturday morning, Emily gazed out the window and suggested, "You know, it's been a while since we've taken a little trip just the two of us. How about we plan a quick getaway?" Her partner, Ryan, looked up from his phone, where he was scrolling through his social media feed. "That sounds perfect," he replied, a hint of excitement creeping into his voice. "Where did you have in mind?"

Emily thought for a moment before responding, "I've been itching to explore that new winery that just opened up in the countryside. We could spend the night in a cozy B&B and make a weekend of it." Ryan's eyes lit up as he put down his phone and began to brainstorm. "I was thinking we could check out that hiking trail I've been wanting to try out, too. We could pack a picnic lunch and make a day of it."

As they chatted, their plans began to take shape. They decided on a charming B&B they had heard great things about and made a reservation for that night. Ryan pulled out a map and they pored over it together, tracing the route to the winery and the hiking trail. Emily started making a mental list of what they needed to pack, while Ryan began searching online for the best local restaurants to grab dinner at.

With their itinerary taking shape, they set to work preparing for their trip. Emily started packing a bag with comfortable hiking shoes, a picnic blanket, and a change of clothes, while Ryan made a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up some snacks and a bottle of wine for their picnic. As they worked together, their excitement grew, and they couldn't wait to embark on their little adventure.


As they sipped their morning coffee, Emily gazed out the kitchen window, her eyes tracing the wispy clouds drifting lazily across the sky. "You know, I've been feeling really cooped up lately," she said, turning to her partner, Ryan. "A quick getaway sounds perfect."

Ryan, hunched over his phone, looked up, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "I've been thinking the same thing. Where do you want to go?"

Emily's eyes sparkled as she began to rummage through a stack of travel brochures on the counter. "Somewhere within driving distance, I think. We can't take too much time off, and I don't feel like dealing with airport security."

Ryan nodded in agreement, setting his phone aside. "I've been itching to explore that new winery that just opened up in the countryside. We could check it out and grab a room in the nearby B&B."

Emily's face lit up as she pulled out a map of the region. "That sounds amazing. Let's see...if we leave early tomorrow, we can make it there by lunchtime." She began to scan the map, her brow furrowed in concentration. "We can grab lunch at that quaint little café I read about online, and then head to the winery for a tour."

Ryan stood up, stretching his arms over his head. "I'll start packing while you finalize the itinerary." He headed to the bedroom, calling back over his shoulder, "And don't forget to check the weather forecast. We don't want to get caught in the rain."

As Emily continued to plan their trip, Ryan began to gather their clothes and toiletries, his movements efficient and methodical. Together, they worked in comfortable tandem, their excitement building as they anticipated their short weekend escape.


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie began to brainstorm their upcoming weekend getaway. They had been feeling cooped up in their small apartment, and a short trip to the nearby mountains sounded like just the thing to refresh their spirits. Alex pulled out their laptop and started searching for cabin rentals, while Maddie scrolled through her phone, looking for hiking trails and local attractions.

"I found a great cabin," Alex said, showing Maddie the listing on the screen. "It's got a hot tub and a fireplace – we can cozy up by the fire at night."

Maddie's eyes lit up. "That sounds perfect. What's the hike like around there?"

Alex pulled up the trail map, and they pored over it together, discussing the best routes and scenic viewpoints. Maddie was keen on a challenging summit hike, while Alex was more interested in a leisurely stroll along the river.

After some debate, they compromised on a moderate trail that would give them a good balance of exercise and scenery. With their itinerary taking shape, they started making a packing list. Maddie added hiking boots, sunscreen, and a first-aid kit, while Alex threw in some cozy pajamas and a good book.

As they chatted and planned, their excitement grew. They finalized their plans, booked the cabin, and started throwing clothes and gear into their backpacks. With a weekend of adventure ahead, they felt invigorated and ready to leave their daily routines behind. As they finished their coffee, Alex grinned at Maddie. "Can't wait to get out of here and into the mountains." Maddie smiled back, and they shared a quick kiss before diving back into their preparations.


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie sat at their kitchen table, scrolling through their phones. The weekend was finally here, and they had decided to take a short trip together. Alex, with a mischievous grin, suggested a visit to the nearby coastal town they had been wanting to explore. Maddie, her eyes lighting up, agreed it was the perfect escape from their busy schedules.

As they began to make plans, their excitement grew. They started by searching for accommodations, and Maddie found a cozy bed-and-breakfast within walking distance of the beach. Alex, meanwhile, was researching local attractions and activities. "We should check out that new art gallery that just opened," he said, showing Maddie a flyer on his phone. She nodded enthusiastically, and they added it to their itinerary.

With their lodging booked, they moved on to planning their itinerary. Maddie suggested a hike at a nearby state park, while Alex was keen on trying out some of the local seafood restaurants. They compromised, deciding to do both. As they finalized their plans, they couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. A relaxing weekend by the coast was just what they needed.

As they finished their coffee, Alex stood up and began clearing the table. "I'll start packing," he said, heading towards their bedroom. Maddie followed, already thinking about what to wear. Together, they began gathering their clothes and essentials, their banter and laughter filling the room. As they worked, they chatted about their expectations for the trip, from watching the sunset over the ocean to enjoying a leisurely stroll along the beach. With their bags packed and their plans in place, they were ready to embark on their weekend adventure.


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie sat at their kitchen table, surrounded by laptops and travel brochures. They were excited to plan a quick weekend getaway. "I've been feeling really stressed out lately," Alex said, scrolling through a website on her laptop. "A change of scenery would be great." Maddie nodded in agreement, her eyes scanning a travel guide. "I've been thinking the same thing. Where do you want to go?"

They tossed around a few ideas, discussing the pros and cons of different destinations. Alex suggested visiting the nearby mountains, while Maddie was leaning towards a coastal town a few hours away. After some deliberation, they decided on a charming bed and breakfast in the mountains, known for its scenic hiking trails and cozy atmosphere.

As they continued to plan, their excitement grew. They booked their accommodations and started making a list of things to pack. Maddie pulled out a map of the area, highlighting the trails they wanted to hike and the local attractions they wanted to visit. Alex, meanwhile, was researching the best restaurants in the area, making a mental note of the ones they had to try.

With their plans in place, they began packing their bags. Alex grabbed their hiking boots and outdoor gear, while Maddie packed a few changes of clothes and their toiletries. As they worked together, their banter and laughter filled the air. "Don't forget the sunscreen," Maddie reminded Alex, who rolled her eyes good-naturedly. "I wasn't born yesterday," she replied, smiling. As they finished packing, they exchanged a look, both of them eager to start their adventure together.


As the morning sunlight streamed through the window, Maya stretched and yawned, nudging her partner, Alex, awake. "Hey, sleepyhead," she whispered, "today's the day. We should start making plans for our weekend getaway." Alex rubbed the sleep from his eyes and sat up, running a hand through his messy hair. "I'm so down for that," he replied, smiling. "Where were you thinking of going?"

Maya pulled out her laptop and began browsing travel websites. "I've been eyeing that new bed and breakfast in the mountains," she said, showing Alex the website on her screen. "It looks cozy, and the reviews are great." Alex's eyes lit up as he scanned the page. "That sounds perfect. Let's do it." They spent the next hour discussing the details, from booking the B&B to planning their itinerary.

As they chatted, Maya pulled out a map and began circling potential hiking trails and scenic spots. Alex, meanwhile, checked the weather forecast and packed a small backpack with essentials: snacks, water, and a first-aid kit. "I'll drive," he said, "so you can navigate." Maya nodded, already typing their destination into her GPS.

With their plans in place, they spent the rest of the morning preparing for their trip. Maya packed a small suitcase with clothes and toiletries, while Alex made a quick breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast. As they ate, they chatted excitedly about their weekend ahead, making a mental checklist of everything they wanted to do and see. By mid-morning, they were ready to hit the road, eager to leave their daily routines behind and enjoy a relaxing weekend together in the mountains.


As they sipped their coffee on the balcony, Alex gazed out at the morning sun rising over the rooftops, feeling a sudden pang of restlessness. "Hey, Jamie, how about we get out of here for the weekend?" she suggested, turning to her partner, who was engrossed in his phone.

Jamie looked up, his eyes squinting slightly as he set his phone aside. "That sounds great. Where did you have in mind?" He leaned back in his chair, his eyes locked on Alex's face.

Alex's eyes sparkled as she pulled out her laptop. "I've been thinking about that new bed and breakfast in the mountains. I've heard great things about it." She began typing away, searching for availability.

Jamie got up and walked over to Alex, peering over her shoulder at the screen. "That looks perfect. When were you thinking?" He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close.

"How about we leave tomorrow afternoon and come back on Sunday?" Alex suggested, her fingers flying across the keyboard as she booked their stay.

Jamie nodded, his chin resting on Alex's shoulder. "Sounds like a plan. What do we need to pack?"

As they began making a mental list, Alex pulled up a map of the area on her laptop. "We should check out that hiking trail nearby. I've heard it's beautiful this time of year." Jamie's eyes lit up, and he leaned in to kiss Alex's neck.

With their plans taking shape, they spent the rest of the morning packing and making a quick grocery run. As they loaded up their car the next day, Alex felt a thrill of excitement. "I'm so glad we decided to do this," she said, smiling at Jamie.

Jamie grinned back, tossing their bags into the trunk. "Me too. Let's hit the road."


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie sat at their kitchen table, laptops open, browsing travel websites. They had been itching to get out of the city for a quick weekend getaway, and now they had finally cleared their schedules. "How about Asheville?" Alex suggested, his eyes scanning the screen. "I've heard great things about the Blue Ridge Parkway this time of year."

Maddie nodded enthusiastically, her curly brown hair bobbing as she typed away on her laptop. "I love the vibe of Asheville. And we can check out that new brewery we've been wanting to try." She pulled up a tab with hotel options and began comparing prices. "What about that boutique hotel downtown? The one with the rooftop bar?"

Alex raised an eyebrow. "That's a bit pricey, isn't it?" He leaned in to get a better look at the screen. "But I do love a good rooftop bar. How about we compromise and look at some of the Airbnb options in the area?"

Maddie grinned mischievously. "I've already got a few options pulled up." She clicked through a few listings, showing Alex pictures of cozy cabins and stylishly decorated apartments. They quickly settled on a charming little bungalow just outside of downtown, with a hot tub on the back porch and a fully stocked kitchen.

With their accommodations booked, they spent the next hour planning out their itinerary. They decided on a hike along the nearby river on Saturday morning, followed by a visit to the brewery and some exploring downtown. On Sunday, they'd pack up and head back home, refreshed and rejuvenated after their quick escape. As they closed their laptops, Alex leaned over and kissed Maddie. "I'm so down for this. Let's make it a weekend to remember."


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex gazed out the window at the overcast sky and suggested, "You know, it's been a while since we've gotten away. How about a quick weekend trip?" Jamie, engrossed in her phone, looked up and raised an eyebrow. "That sounds great, but where to?" she asked, setting her phone aside.

Alex pulled out a map and began to scan it, tracing potential routes with his finger. "We could head to the mountains," he said, "or maybe the beach?" Jamie walked over to join him, peering over his shoulder at the map. "I was thinking more along the lines of something urban," she said, "somewhere we can walk around and explore." Alex nodded, his eyes scanning the map for a suitable destination.

After a few minutes of deliberation, they settled on a charming coastal town a few hours away. They quickly got to work, booking a cozy bed-and-breakfast and making a rough plan for their itinerary. As they worked, their excitement grew, and they began to brainstorm all the things they wanted to do and see.

With their plans in place, they started packing, gathering clothes and essentials for a quick getaway. Alex tossed a few snacks into a bag, while Jamie grabbed a camera and a book to bring along.

With a final check of the house, they grabbed their bags and set off, feeling a sense of freedom and adventure as they drove away into the morning.


As they sipped their morning coffee, Alex and Maddie sat on the couch, scrolling through their phones. They had been discussing taking a short trip for weeks, and the time had finally come. Alex had just finished a big project at work, and Maddie had a light schedule at the boutique she managed. They decided on a spontaneous weekend getaway to the nearby mountains.

Maddie pulled up a travel website on her phone and began searching for cozy cabins. "How about this one?" she asked, showing Alex a charming log cabin with a hot tub on the deck. Alex's eyes lit up as he took the phone from her and read the details. "It looks perfect," he said. "Let's book it."

As they finalized their plans, they began making a mental list of what to pack. Maddie jumped up from the couch and started gathering clothes and toiletries, while Alex checked the weather forecast. "Looks like it's supposed to be chilly at night, so we should bring some warm layers," he said, making a note on his phone.

With the cabin booked and their packing list underway, they started discussing activities for the weekend. Maddie was keen on hiking, while Alex wanted to try out the local brewery. They compromised, deciding to do a moderate hike on Saturday morning and visit the brewery in the afternoon.

With their plans in place, they finished their coffee and began packing their bags, ready to hit the road on Friday evening. The prospect of a peaceful weekend getaway had already brought a sense of calm and joy to their busy lives.


As the morning sunlight streamed through the window, Maya and Ryan stirred in their cozy bedroom. They had been putting off a weekend getaway for weeks, and today was the day they would finally make plans. Maya stretched, yawned, and swung her legs over the side of the bed, while Ryan rubbed the sleep from his eyes. "Where do you want to go?" Maya asked, already knowing the answer. Ryan smiled mischievously, "How about that bed and breakfast we saw online a few weeks ago?"

Maya's eyes lit up as she grabbed her phone and pulled up the website. "The one in the mountains? I loved the pictures." Ryan nodded enthusiastically. "Let's do it." They spent the next hour browsing the B&B's website, reading reviews, and making a rough itinerary for their trip. They decided to leave on Friday afternoon, after Ryan finished work, and drive the two hours to the charming town nestled in the mountains.

The prospect of a peaceful, romantic getaway was just what they needed to unwind and reconnect.


As they sipped their coffee on the small balcony of their apartment, Alex gazed out at the morning sun casting a warm glow over the city. His partner, Maya, sat beside him, scrolling through her phone. "I've been thinking," she said, "we need a break from this chaos. How about a quick getaway to the coast?" Alex's eyes lit up. "That sounds amazing. When were you thinking?"

Maya checked the weather forecast. "The forecast looks perfect for this weekend. We could leave Friday afternoon and be back Sunday night." Alex nodded enthusiastically. "I'm in. Where exactly did you have in mind?" Maya showed him a few options on her phone, and they spent the next hour browsing through coastal towns, eventually settling on a small beachside village they had visited a few years ago.

As they began making plans, their excitement grew. They decided to book a cozy bed-and-breakfast they had stayed at previously, and Alex started researching outdoor activities they could do in the area. Maya, meanwhile, started packing a small bag, tossing in a few essentials like sunscreen, a change of clothes, and her favorite book. "I'll take care of the driving," Alex said, "you can navigate." Maya smiled and handed him the keys to their car.

With their plans in place, they spent the rest of the morning finalizing the details. They booked their B&B, made a reservation at a local seafood restaurant, and even managed to squeeze in a hike along the coastal trail. As they finished their coffee, Alex turned to Maya and grinned. "Can't wait to get out of here and relax with you." Maya leaned in, kissed him, and replied, "Me neither. It's going to be a great weekend."


As they sipped their coffee on a crisp Saturday morning, Alex and Maddie pored over a map of the nearby mountains, planning a quick weekend getaway.

Alex, with his rugged outdoorsy type, was excited to explore the trails and scenic vistas, while Maddie was looking forward to a relaxing break from her busy work schedule.

"I was thinking we could head to that new bed and breakfast we read about," Maddie suggested, tracing a route with her finger. "It's supposed to be lovely, and it's right near some great hiking trails." Alex nodded enthusiastically, his eyes scanning the map for the best routes. "That sounds perfect. We can hike on Saturday and then enjoy a lazy Sunday morning before heading back."

As they finalized their plans, they began to pack their bags, tossing in hiking boots, layers for changing weather, and a few favorite snacks. Maddie chuckled as Alex added a ridiculous number of energy bars to their stash. "You're going to need a forklift to carry all those," she teased. Alex grinned, "Hey, you never know when we'll need a boost."

With their bags packed and the car loaded, they set off mid-morning, feeling a sense of freedom and adventure as they left the city behind. As they wound their way through the mountains, the scenery grew more breathtaking, and their excitement grew.

They were both in the mood for a quick getaway, and a weekend trip to the nearby mountains had been on their minds for weeks. "How about Asheville?" Alex suggested, showing Maddie a picture of a cozy cabin on a booking site. Maddie raised an eyebrow, "That looks perfect, but is it available for this weekend?" Alex checked the dates and nodded, "Yes, it's free from Friday to Sunday."

Maddie started imagining the activities they could do in Asheville. "We could hike to that waterfall we saw on Instagram last week," she said, her eyes lighting up.

The aroma wafted through the air, enticing Maya to join him. She padded across the floor, still in her sleep shirt, and leaned against the counter as Alex handed her a steaming mug.

With their trip taking shape, they began to make a packing list. Maddie reminded Alex to bring his hiking boots, while Alex teased her about overpacking her beauty products. As they worked together, their banter and laughter filled the kitchen, and they couldn't wait to embark on their adventure together.


As they sat on the couch, laptops open, Alex and Maddie scrolled through travel websites, debating where to go for their upcoming weekend getaway. They had been putting it off for too long, and the prospect of a short escape from the city was becoming increasingly appealing. Alex suggested a bed and breakfast in the mountains, while Maddie was pushing for a beach town a few hours away. They tossed around ideas, weighing the pros and cons of each destination.

Maddie suddenly sat up straight, a look of excitement on her face. "I've got it," she said, clicking on a link. "This Airbnb in Asheville looks amazing. We can hike, explore the River Arts District, and grab dinner at one of those amazing barbecue joints." Alex's eyes lit up as he scanned the listing. "That sounds perfect," he agreed. "When are we going?" They decided on the following Friday, and quickly booked the rental.

With their plans set, they spent the next hour making a rough itinerary. Alex pulled out a map and they plotted out their hiking route, while Maddie researched local breweries and restaurants. As they worked together, their excitement grew. They chatted about everything they wanted to do and see, from visiting the Biltmore Estate to strolling through the North Carolina Arboretum.

As the evening drew to a close, they packed a small bag with essentials for the trip – hiking boots, snacks, and a portable charger.

With a sense of anticipation, they settled in for a relaxing night at home, dreaming of the adventures that awaited them in Asheville.

Alex, with a mischievous glint in his eye, suggested a bed and breakfast in the nearby mountains. Maddie raised an eyebrow, skeptical. "Isn't that a bit... quaint?" she teased. Alex grinned. "That's the point. We can use a little quaint."

Maddie couldn't argue with that. She began typing away on her laptop, researching the B&Bs Alex had suggested. After a few minutes, she let out a triumphant cry. "I found it! The Oakwood Inn. It's got great reviews and a hot tub on the porch." Alex's eyes lit up. "That sounds perfect."

Maddie jotted down notes on a piece of paper, her handwriting messy with enthusiasm. Alex got up to make a cup of coffee, and as he waited for the brew to finish, he began to hum a tune. Maddie looked up, smiling. "What's that?" she asked. Alex shrugged. "Just something that came into my head. I think it's because I'm happy." Maddie smiled, feeling the same way. They finished their planning, closed their laptops, and leaned in for a kiss. "I'm so down for this weekend," Maddie said, her eyes shining with anticipation. Alex grinned, wrapping his arms around her. "Me too."

"Where did you have in mind?"

Alex thought for a moment before responding, "I was thinking maybe the mountains? We could drive up to that bed and breakfast we liked near Asheville." Jamie's face lit up. "I loved that place! And I've been itching to get out into nature. When were you thinking of going?"

Her partner, Ryan, was already up and making coffee in the kitchen. The aroma wafted into the bedroom, enticing Emily to get out of bed. She tossed on a pair of sweatpants and a cozy sweater, padding into the kitchen to join Ryan.

"Hey, sleepyhead," Ryan said, handing her a steaming mug. "I was thinking, since we both have the weekend off, we should get out of the city for a bit."

Emily's eyes lit up as she took a sip of her coffee. "That sounds amazing. Where were you thinking?"

Ryan pulled out his phone and started scrolling through a travel app. "I was looking at some options in the mountains. We could drive up to that bed and breakfast we liked last time."
