"call me once you arrive, okay?"

"mom, we'll be on the island really early in the morning"

"i don't care!"

y/n hugged her mom, before walking towards the school bus.

she, along with most of her classmates, were going on a school trip far away from home. it was only just four days, but y/n felt that pang in her chest when she was saying goodbye to her mom.

she was excited, but she wouldn't admit she was so gonna miss her family.

the school bus was filled with cheers and happy laughter, and it only quietened down when they reached the port of the city.

y/n's hands were shaking when she got the key for her, sasha's and historia's cabin. the room was small and way too hot for her liking, but she'd manage. it was only for some hours, after all.

"let's go to the deck!" historia suggested.

the air hit their faces, making y/n sigh in relief. she knew once the ship sailed, she'd feel awfully nauseous.

the three girls spent a lot of time outside, laughing with some of their classmates; jean, eren and hitch included.

"sasha, do you have the key?"

"yes, why?" the girl asked, looking at y/n.

"give it to me. i feel like i'm gonna vomit my guts out"

she took the key and quickly moved from the deck to the lobby, to the hallways, to their cabin, and soon after to the small bathroom.

she heard the main door opening, while she was washing her mouth. she thought one of the girls came in to check on her, but she was surprised to see jean in their room.

"are you feeling better?"

"no"

"ships aren't really my thing" she added, before taking a gum in her mouth.

"going outside will help you more. it's too hot in the cabins" he said, walking closer.

he held her close to him, as he walked with her towards the main dining room. he helped her sit on a chair, placing a water bottle in front of her.

"stay here, okay? i'm gonna check if historia and sasha are alright"

y/n nodded her head and she started to take slow and steady breaths, while occasionally drinking water.

'i hate traveling by ships'

nearly five hours had went by from the moment they got in the ship, and their destination was still too far away.

it was past 12am when y/n was in hitch's room, along with her friends. they were playing different games, while listening to music, trying to spend the ridiculous amount of time they had in their hands.

'i'm so bored'

"y/n, can you give me the key?"

"are you alright, sasha?" she asked, as she gave the key to the girl.

"yeah! i'm just gonna sleep"

"then, i'll come, too! i don't want to leave you alone"

"me too!" historia said, getting up.

y/n said goodnight to everyone in the small cabin, noticing jean getting up from his seat.

sasha unlocked the door to their room, immediately falling on her bed.

"i feel like vomiting"

"you can do it, historia!" jean said.

"go and try again" y/n said, placing a hand on the girl's shoulder.

"are you gonna stay here?"

"i just wanted to make sure you'll be safe"

"hitch's room is on the next hallway" y/n said, crossing her arms on her chest.

he slightly chuckled, before he ruffled her hair.

"get some sleep, okay? you'll feel less nauseous"

"i don't think i can sleep. i'm away from home- in a new environment, and also, the ship is shaking too much" she answered, fixing her hair.

"try it, at least" he said, softly smiling at her.

"i will! sleep well, jean"

"goodnight, y/n"

she, in fact, didn't sleep that night. she was wide awake. sasha was sleeping on the bed close to hers and historia managed to sleep for forty minutes while sitting on a chair.

'i'll definitely make fun of her for that'
