Jody's POV

"Nooooo!" I whined and buried my face in Vic's shoulder.

"C'mon, it won't be that bad! It's not the worst horror movie" Jaime said and put the DVD in the player.

"But I hate horror movies! I never can sleep after I saw one and I'm always so scared!" I refused.

"I've already saw that one and it's really not terrible and too scary. And you don't have to sleep alone" Vic told.

"Yeah, Vic is gonna protect you" Jaime agreed more as a joke and sat next to Vic on the couch. We were in the back lounge of the bus and Jaime wanted to watch a movie with us so bad. I agreed, until I found out that it was a horror movie. I hate horror movies. I kinda take them too serious and think that they're real, which causes that I never can sleep after I've watched one. So I always refuse to watch them.

"But still! I hate horror movies" I still refused and held my head up to look at the screen.

"Try it! Maybe now you're not as scared as you used to" Vic said and put his arm around me.

"Okay, I'll watch it with you guys. But when ever I'm scared at night, I can wake you guys up anytime. Even if it's just for going to the toilet in the front" I dealed with them. They both agreed and I smiled.

"Good, so now press play" I said to Jaime and he did what I told him. I put my legs up to the couch and put my head on Vic's chest, already scared about what's gonna happen in the movie.

Vic and Jaime weren't scared at all but I was almost freaking out. Every little sound made me jump, causing the others to laugh, which caused me to punch them. My heart was racing and my eyes wide as fuck. Everytime I jumped because of something that happened in the movie, either Vic or Jaime said that it wasn't that bad and not a reason to for me to jump. But I just continued to punch them at every little word they said about my scariness. This movie was like the most scariest thing ever. And Vic was lying when he said that it wasn't scary at all! It's freaking the shit out off me! Vic and Jaime seemed to be happy as usual when the movie was finished, but I feared that any moment someone would run into the bus and murder me. Jaime turned everything off and wished me and Vic a goodnight. Of course he said it to me like a joke. I stuck my tongue out at him as Vic and me left the back lounge and walked to his bunk. I took my clothes and went into the bathroom to get changed. Since this bus is full of dudes, I always had to go in the tiny bathroom to get changed. I don't want them all to see me in my underwear/naked. When I changed, I walked back to Vic's bunk and climbed in it. Vic was already lying there so I climbed over him and lay down next to him on the tiny spot. The bunk actually wasn't big enough for two persons, but when you literally lie on top of each other, it works. I don't mind half-lying on Vic and he doesn't neither. He put his arm around me and pulled me more on his chest. I looked up to him and kissed his lips.

"Goodnight baby" he wished with already closed eyes.

"Haha I bet I can't sleep a bit. And you know that I'm gonna wake you up because of every tiny bit?" I told and still looked up at him.

"Yeah yeah" he just said but didn't open his eyes.

"Goodnight my brave protector" I wished him and smiled.

"Goodnight baby" he wished again. I closed my eyes and soon after had the picture of the killer from the movie in front of my eyes. I opened them again and looked around in the bunk. There wasn't a killer, of course. But my imagination was just too strong so I kept my eyes open. After maybe an hour, I managed to tell myself that there wasn't a killer in my bunk so I could finally close my eyes. I tried to think of Sam and Laurie and their upcoming wedding, without a killer. So after maybe another hour I finally drifted off to sleep.
