Chapter 17 - The trip p2 ♡

Max's POV-

I woke up and tried to scratch my nose, but I realized that I couldn't move my body at all. At first, I began to panic, but then I realized it was just Jane. She was sprawled over me, with her face buried in the middle of my chest.

I couldn't help but chuckle a little bit at the sight of my girlfriend sleeping so deeply on me. What made it even funnier was that her position was probably an accident, since Jane tended to move around a lot in her sleep.

I had no clue how long we had been sleeping, but since I was the one to wake up first, I knew we overslept.

I shook Jane slightly, causing her to groan and turn her face so she wasn't practically eating my shirt.

"Are you in seventh heaven there, Janie?" I joked softly, moving a piece of her knotted morning hair out of her face.

Jane made a few sleepy noises before slowly realizing her surroundings. She lifted herself up with her eyes wide. "How long have we been sleeping?"

"I have no clue." I responded

"That's not good-!" She exclaimed, changing her position and getting completely off of me.

"Heyy! We already slept in, why don't we just stay here for the rest of the day?" I suggested hopefully. She crossed her arms over her chest like a disappointed mother and got out of bed. I sighed playfully and slammed my face onto the pillow beside me to show rebellion.

"Max!" She grumbled, attempting to pull me off of the bed by my legs, failing miserably.

"Good luck with that." I grinned into my pillow.

"This isn't attractive Maxine." She huffed, slouching into the nearest chair and pouting at me.

I peeked my face from out of the soft pillow case, and sent her a wink.

"You are easy to annoy, and I love it." I grinned.

I could tell she was having a hard time figuring out whether that was a compliment or not, but nevertheless, her cheeks were turning red. Mission accomplished.

"Are we going to leave or not?" She pouted.

"Well I don't know." I sat up, shrugging. "Are you gonna give me a kiss if we do?"

"If I do, are you gonna accept just one kiss and then let us go or are you gonna try to seduce me into skipping all the activities the school has planned?" She raised her eyebrows, obviously suspecting that I was tricking her.

I gaped my mouth and pretended to be offended, "I am offended that you think I, Maxine Mayfield, would ever skip unnecessary school activities to make out with my girlfriend." I said with deep sarcasm.

She sat still for a moment, with her arms still crossed over her chest as if she was my mother contemplating whether or not I was grounded.

"Janie bear." I sighed, pouting my lip slightly.

A small smile tugged at her lips, but she rolled her eyes playfully. "One kiss."

I cheered silently like a five year old getting an ice cream cone, and stood up to receive affection. I pulled Jane up by her hands and she quickly placed a peck on my lips. I savored every second even though it was barely two.

After the short kiss, she intertwined our fingers and dragged me towards to door to make sure we left. I frowned at her action and resisted slightly, but I didn't wanna make her mad again.

"Get your shoes on." Jane instructed, once again, like my mother.

"Okay, mom." I joked.

She slapped my arm lightly, and the thing is, I couldn't even tell if it was playful anymore. I thought it was kinda funny how frustrated she could get with me.

Jane slipped her crocs on, and I just put my slides on even though it was against the dress code. I honestly didn't care anymore, because if I had to do activities I didn't wanna do, I wanted to at least be comfortable. Even if that meant that I broke the rules.

Jane didn't seem to care that I went against the rules, and she was just content that I was actually leaving.

We spent around roughly 20 minutes exploring our way around the maze-like ship. After a while, we finally made it to the right place. Everyone was on the backside of the boat, on the deck. There were tables and chairs set up, and I wanted to run the opposite direction as soon as I laid my eyes on them.

Jane knew what I was thinking and pulled me harder towards the table containing our friend group.

It appeared that Mike and Will weren't participating at all, Dustin was hyper-focused on whatever he was doing, and Lucas was flipping his water bottle on the table.

"It's about time you guys showed up!" Mike noticed us, beaming with relief.

"We thought you weren't coming." Will raised an eyebrow.

"Trust me, they probably were cu-!"

"MICHAEL!" Will scolded. He turned back to us and sent an apologetic look, "Sorry about him, again."

Dustin looked up from the paper he was filling out, and sent us a welcoming smile. He patted the table, motioning for us to sit down across from them.

Me and Jane sat down, and we immediately got handed two papers from Lucas. He was probably keeping a hold of them for us.

"What is this?" I asked, frowning.

"A survey." Dustin responded before Lucas could open his mouth.

"For what?" I sighed. I really wasn't in the mood for unnecessary work.

"It's about your room and everything you packed, it's kinda confirming that everything is okay. You missed the part where we made sailor hats though." Lucas chimed in, reclaiming the conversation we were going to have before Dustin spoke up.

"Sailor hats? Oh my god." I cringed.

"But tomorrow we only have one meeting in the morning, and then we have the rest of the day to ourselves." He continued, relieving me slightly. I wanted to avoid anything school related as much as possible, even though it was a school trip.
