"Everyone huddle up!"Mr Jeremy calls out.

I get up from Nate's lap and we walk towards everyone else... people are starting at Nate and I,his hand over my shoulder.

"Well as you all know, we'll be grouping you all to our destination. I have prepared a list of names that will get into bus A. If you hear your name please get your bags and head to the first bus"Mr Jeremy says and we all wait to hear our names..

"John Wilson"

"Anna Creed"

"Louis Devargo"

"Kendrick Zoner"

"Nate Miller"

At the mention of Nate's name,everyone goes crazy,they all want to be in the same bus as he is.

"Madison Star"

"Look Nat"Liv says.

"What?"I ask

"Drew"she squeals and I roll my eyes.

She has been obsessed with this guy for as long as I can remember..

"Just pray you guys are paired in the same bus"I smile.

"That is my dream right now"Liv says in a dreamy voice.

"So much for being in love"I tease.

"Shut up"she shoves me a little and laughs..

"And Natalie Davis"Mr Jeremy says in a final tone and places the first list down..

"What?!"I yell...

Oh no oh no oh no oh no!!!
This is a disaster

"Uhm sir did you call my name?"I ask Mr Jeremy sweetly.

"Yes Nat, you'll be in bus A"he smiles warmly and goes back to calling the second Bus' list.

"Can I change to bus B?"I whine.

"No dear,you can't"he says and calls the rest of the names..

I mentally cry as I look at Liv for pity,but she's just laughing at me..

"So much for love"she says and runs to her bus,with is bus C.

I grumpily make my way to my bus...I leave my luggage outside,with the rest and hop in..

I don't waste any time to make my way to the back of the bus.. I'm looking for a seat close to the window. I'm a lover of nature, especially on this trip.. it'll soothe me a little, I believe. After searching for a seat,I find a good seat by the window. I rush over to sit down,but take a step back when I see who's sitting on the seat next to mine.

Jaycee Collins

~

I gather up some courage and walk to my seat.

"Hey Natie"Jaycee smiles.

"Hi"I smile back,my voice a little shaky.

"You okay?"he asks.

"Yeah....just been thinking of a lot lately"I say and look outside the window..

"Oh......okay"he says

"Yeah"

"This brings back memories doesn't it?"he says softly.

Jaycee was there for me when Nona was diagnosed.Well that was when everything was all sparkly and bright.

"Yeah it does"I smile.

We stay quiet for a while,but the tension had gone down a bit.

"Nate huh?"he chuckles sheepishly.

And the tension comes back!

"Yeah..it's nothing much actually"I giggle.

"Either way,he's lucky to have you"he smiles,pain flashing through his eyes.

"Thanks"I say.

Well since he was bringing up topics,I decided to do the same...not like it'll be a one sided conversation.

"How's school coming along?"I ask.

"I'm sure it's going pretty well"I look up and see Nate standing over us,his face hard like stone.

"Hey Nate"Jaycee waves nervously.

"Mind telling me what you're doing on my seat?"he snaps.

"Nate that's not nice"I say quickly.

"Well why would you allow him to sit here?"he asks me,in a cold voice,which sends shivers down my spine..

This is the first time he's talking to me like this.

"It's not-"he cuts me off

"Not my seat?Last time I checked it was"he says..

Nate points at a envelope with his name,Nate Miller,boldly written on it..

I look at jaycee,who wears a smirk on his face..

He knew?!

"Now get out"Nate growls..

"So much for being seatmates"he smirks and walks away, not before bumping into Nate intentionally. Nate wants to fight back,but I hold his hand..

"No Nate"I whisper..

I feel so guilty...and I was taking sides with that jerk!

He tugs my hand away and sits down.He then gives me a cold stare

"What?" I ask.

"What was that?"he asks coldly.

"What was what?"I ask innocently..

To be sincere,I know that he's super angry, but ne being Natalie, putting on a little act won't hurt.

"Why where you with that Jaycee guy?!"he tries to stop himself from raising his voice.

"He was sitting here before I could-"

"And you were smiling at him"Nate chuckles,in a sarcastic way."he was sitting on my seat"he says,yet AGAIN.

"How was I supposed to know that?"I ask,a bit annoyed.

"You're my girlfriend Natalie, you're meant to keep a seat for me,no matter where you're sitting"

This is the first time he's calling me Natalie,it felt weird to me.
He was hurt,I know,but I couldn't stop myself from saying what I said next.

"This is an agreement remember?"

I watch as hurt flashes through his eyes,but fades away quickly

"Then you're not selling it"he says in a pissed tone..

Oh damnit.

Why can't you just shut up!!!!

"Nate I -"

"It's okay Brownie"he chuckles and walks away..

I've messed up!
