Lauren's POV

I am suddenly awaken from my slumber as I hear my mother's loud voice yell my name.

"LAUREN MICHELLE, GET UP. YOU HAVE TO BE AT THE RESORT IN LESS THAN AN HOUR. I AM NOT GOING TO TELL YOU AGAIN."

Hearing the word resort is enough to remind me of my inevitable fate of annoying children on skis. As much as my body wants to stay cuddled in the warmth of my bed, I realize that I should probably get my ass up. If I stay any longer, I will be faced with the wrath that is my mother.
