Carter plopped a plastic case of chicken caesar salad down in front of me. Harper sat next to me and Carter slid into the booth across from us. They all had chicken caesar salad boxes in front of them.
"So.. chicken is popular." I said between bites. Everyone was hungrily chewing up their food.
"Well, there wasn't anything else." Harper said.
"Mmhh." Carter added. I looked at him and broke into fits of laughter. "What?" Carter whined. Harper looked up at Carter and started to laugh. There was ranch dressing all over his face.
"Nothing." I said trying to suppress my giggles.
"Hey what time is it?" Harper asked after a few minutes. I pullled out my phone.
"One." I said.
"Oh shoot! I was supposed to call my mom at eleven!" Harper said reaching into her pocket. "Uh-oh." She said after a moment.
"What happened?" Carter asked with his mouth full. Harper looked up. her eyebrow was furrowed in worry.
"I can't find my phone!" She said. "My mom is gonna kill me! She just bought it for me!" She panicked.
"Is it in your bag?" I asked trying to help. Harper opened her green drawstring bag she was carrying around. She stuck her hand in and looked around furiously. Then she looked back up at us. Her face was bright red.
"I found out." She said meekly pulling a bejeweled iPhone out.
"Harper!" Carter and I chorused in unison.
"Sorry, I really thought I lost it." She paused for a moment. "Well actually I thought someone stole it. You know, there are a lot of pickpockets where we are."
"Harper, we're in the middle of nowhere!" I said gazing at the empty landscape that lay beyond the windows.
"Ughhhh, whatever." She scowled jokingly.
"Okay, its time to go." A teacher announced.
"But I didn't even get to finish my salad!" I quietly whined playfully recieving a few giggles form my table. My friends and I walked to the trash and threw out our stuff. We climbed the coach bus once again.
I popped in some headphones and listened to my jam which currently a rap song about thrift shop shopping. It wasn't long before I drifted off to sleep once more.
