The rest of the trip flew by. When we weren't out exploring Salem and learning about the Puritans, Mellissa and I were hanging out with the others in the hotel reception area.
I didn't have any time to sneak into Luka or Josh's rooms. The feeling was bittersweet.
On one hand, it creates distance between us until I can figure out my very confusing feelings. But on the other hand, I miss them.
"Hey, girl," Mellissa comes bouncing up to me as we wait outside the coach. Her caramel skin glows under the golden sun. She's wearing a baby blue dress and a gold necklace around her neck.
She looks beautiful and I feel inadequate even standing near her in my ripped blue jeans and black halter neck shirt. My hair is in a messy bun whilst hers is perfectly straight.
"I'm going to go sit with Jayden at the back of the coach," she smiles at me and I smirk. She's had a crush on him for weeks and has been non-stop talking about him flirting with her whilst we've been on this trip.
"Sure, babe," I giggle, winking at her as she climbs on the coach behind him.
Awww, cuties.
I look to the back of the bus as I follow them on, seeing them settle together. He puts his arm around her and I can practically see the love hearts in her eyes.
Deciding to give them some space, I take a window seat near the front. As soon as I sit down, Luka joins me and I smirk at him.
"What?" he narrows his eyes at me.
"Just seemed eager to sit with me, that's all," I tease him, shrugging my shoulders. He glares at me and I roll my eyes before turning away to look out the window.
"Josh got to sit next to you last time," he mutters quietly.
I smile and turn back to him, seeing his arms crossed. He sees my smile and rolls his eyes before giving Josh an 'I win' smirk.
I laugh at their pettiness as Josh sticks up his middle finger at him.
Since that night, I feel more relaxed with them. So relaxed that I don't hesitate resting my head on Luka's shoulder when the coach sets off home.
Maybe it's because they saw me naked.
My eyes begin to close as I rest on his warm body, his thumb stroking my hand as he holds it.
...
"Wake up, little one," Luka gently nudges me and I open my eyes. They flicker out of the window and I realise we are back home, about five minutes away from the school.
I lift my head from his shoulder and stretch out slightly, letting out a soft moan as my muscles relax.
"Don't moan like that, darling, or I won't be responsible for my actions," Luka whispers in my ear, causing a shiver to run down my spine.
