Ian POV:

Barley's van had a name. 

"Guinevere" 

He's had Guinevere for ages and she's kinda getting out off shape. Ameria didn't seem to mind though. Which was good for me. I hopped into the front seat with Barley. Ameria sat on a seat at the back staring at her phone in deep thought looking sad. 

I was starting to get worried about her. Was she ok? That's the part I didn't know.

Barley adjusted the review mirror and looked at Ameria. I could sense that Barley was thinking the same thing. Barley looked around. It seemed he was looking for something. 

"Hey! Ameria have I ever told you that Guinevere has air-conditioning?" 

I smacked my head with my hand. Nice one Barley (not) 

She looked up into the review mirror. She shook her head. 

She gazed at her phone screen again. Barley shrugged. Then Barley put an evil smirk on his face. 

"Well maybe you don't think much off it but you just wait till I turn it on!" Barley said, his hand reaching for the switch which turns the aircon on. 

Suddenly the blasts of air swirled around the van. It was so powerful that the back door of the van almost opened. I was so worried that if it did open Ameria would fall out with it. I leaned about to jump out into the back.

Thankfully Barley turned it after he could see me pulling a worried look on my face. Once Barley looked back in the review mirror once again. This time Ameria wasn't glum, she was smiling. 

She burst out with laughter. Barley soon joined in. But if I'm really honest, I didn't see what was funny. 

"Umm sorry but what's so funny?" I ask twiddling my thumbs awkwardly. 

Barley and Ameria were laughing so hard not only could they not hear me, Barley went over a speed-bump so fast my head hit the roof. 

Barley noticed that I had my hand rubbing my head. He noticed that I was hurt. 

"Sorry Ian, I didn't mean too" He said

"Its fine" He said looking out the window pretending that nothing happened. 

We soon arrived at school and me and Ameria hopped out of the van. 

"See Ian? That wasn't so bad was it now?" Barley said rolling down the window. 

"I don't know" I said 

"Thanks again Barley!" Ameria yelled to Barley as he drove off.

Ameria looked at me. I looked down at her. 

"Hey, did you hurt your head?" She asked

"Oh umm yea--- i mean no! Its nothin" I said in a rush

"𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘐𝘢𝘯 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳!" 

 Suddenly my eye court eye  on the kids from science class. My mom wanted me to invite them to my "party" tonight.

"Well, Ian there they are, this is your chance!" 

"Ehh uh, Ameria I don't know" I said backing up a bit

"Ian, come on just give it a go, if it helps before you talk to them we can come up with something" She sighed

"Ok, that sounds good" I say cheering up a bit.

Ameria and I run through so many lines of what to say. I grab my pen out and starting writing out stuff to say on my hand. Just in case if I forget or get really nervous.
