Meeting the Millers

|18| Sober thoughts

Zoe and Sienna both betrayed me. Zo sat with Aaron whilst Sienna sat with Macey, now it's not that I don't mind sitting next to Carter but it would've been nice to sit next to one of my best friends, "I call dibs on the window seat"

"Fine by me" Carter replies as we sit down

There's four teachers coming on this trip which means it shouldn't be hard to sneak in any drinks, I swear they just make the job so much more easier. "Your bags look pretty light for people who are supposed to be delivering"

"If you weren't able to spot them then we're doing something right"

I guess they are

The principle stood up and we all had to listen to one of those boring lectures, he was saying shit like those who misbehave for the next two days will be sent home early and stuff like there will be no cabin parties, everyone looked at each other with amused looks as he said this. Then he went on about how the boys aren't allowed in the girl cabins and the girls aren't allowed in the boy cabins, more shit that none of us will listen too. He finally sat down after announcing that it would be a one hour coach drive, "Psst.... Carmen" Aaron whispers

I frown as I look between the gap next to my window, "What?"

He hands me a pack of gummies, "Your kidding" I say amused

"Not at all"

I take it before shoving it into my pocket and then turning back to face Carter who's scrolling through his phone, "Do rich people go camping?" I ask him

"Not really"

It's a question I always wondered about

"What did you get on the exams that you stupidly missed the first time" I then ask

"I passed all of them" He replies before turning off his phone

"Surprise surprise,....- and also why wasn't I aware that you could speak Spanish" I scoff

I remember how his mom said that those were one of the exams he missed and his response was 'I'd pass it anyway'

"Nunca me preguntaste"
-you never asked-

I raise my eyebrows, "Dang I guess I can't talk about you secretly now"

He puts an arm around me with one of those stupid grins on his face, "That's right, you can't"

I pinch him and he flinches. "It won't stop me though"

"Ow!"

Zoe taps my seat before pushing her hand through the gap, she's holding a bar of chocolate. I look at it before shaking my head, "No thanks"

She snorts, "What you're just gonna starve?"

I shrug one shoulder as she sits back, "I'll eat later"

"Fine"

Aaron lies on her shoulder tiredly as I turn away

"You haven't had anything yet have you" Carter says knowingly

"I had a breakfast bar"

"That doesn't count-

I snort, "What and chocolate does?"

"It's better than nothing-

"I'll eat later" I repeat

"But-

I close his lips with my fingers, "Not now please"

There's listening ears everywhere

"Carmen take the chocolate, I know you're hungry" He says lowly
