Chapter 4: Day 2

"I'm not going" I said

Chelsea's face became clueless when she heard those words. Then she spoke up.

"And why?" she asked with her one eyebrow up.

"I don't want to. Any problem with that, Chelsea?" I questioned her.

"Yes. And you're gonna go to the field trip whether you like it or not. I must bring you there." She answered angrily.

"And why?"

"Because... BECAUSE IT'LL BE SO MUCH FUN!!"

Do I have a choice? :-/

~~~

Then the day of the field trip arrived...

Chelsea did all the preparations. She even put away my loose t-shirts and replaced them with blouses. Why this girl does become my friend? Plus, she's also a stalker. She already knew my location even before I tell her. Urgh!

"Let's go? Heheh!" she giggled.

"Whatever "I answered annoyingly

As we were riding into Chelsea's car going to the school, the rain poured. I smiled at the thought that the field trip might be canceled. I looked at Chelsea and she looked so worried. Oh dear! Looks like luck is on my side.

"So Chelsea, your beloved trip is on the verge of being canceled." I teased.

"That! That shall not happen." she demanded.

"Oh. Let's see."

The rain poured even harder and I can feel an improving happiness inside me.

I turned to Chelsea. I was shocked to see her with her eyes closed.

"Hey! There's no time for sleeping! We're almost at school!" I shouted.

"I am not asleep" she answered still closing her eyes. I fell silent. What is she doing?

Not too long, she opened her eyes. She suddenly smirked on me. It's getting cold here... I shall turn-off the air-conditioner.

"What were you doing?" I asked.

"Closing my eyes, obviously" she answered with a sarcasm tone in her voice.

"I know. But what were you thinking?"

"Nothing"

"Man, you're beyond crazy" I told her.

She just giggled. What's wrong with her? Has she already reached to her 90% of bizarreness? Urgh! Nevermind...

"I win" she mumbled.

"Again?" I asked.

"The field trip is not going to be canceled" she said.

I looked at her with a clueless face. And then I suddenly realized it before I could speak. Sh*t. The rain stopped. Now all my bright vibes went upside-down T.T

"Haha! I win!"

"Whatever."

The moment arrived, Chelsea raced towards the bus while carrying her bags."Skye! Move fast!" she ordered.

"What do you think I'm doing Chelsea?" We finally got our things to the bus we're going to ride. I sat on a chair at the back and Chelsea immediately seated right next to mine.

"So class. I suppose you all are ready to the trip. right?" no

"But before going through the details, I would like you to meet Mr. Drew. He will be going with us to the trip"

Ok. Everyone (except me, of course) was shocked. Even Chelsea. They couldn't even speak a word until...

" AAAAAAAAHHHHH!"

" He's here! He's really here!"

" I can die now"

"Oppa!" what?

Then blahblahblahblah... I didn't care. I just looked away and waited for the bus to move.

I felt something... it's like someone was looking towards me... wait, what? That guy suddenly smirked the moment our eyes met. After a few seconds, he looked away and smiled to my classmates like nothing has happened. Uhh.. Have we met? Cuz I don't remember his face at all. I must be very dense. But nah! He's nothing relevant.

"Hi there!"

"Who're--?"

He smiled. "May I take this seat?" Acting so formal in front of others? Sadly, your charms don't work on me.

"Go on. Do what you want"

"Thanks" He said as he seated on the chair at my right. Then I felt Chelsea's hand squeeze my elbow. I made a face at her and she obeyed with a gesture saying 'okay-I-surrender'

"What an incredible chance to see the world, don't you think?" this guy beside me started.

"Right." I can feel sharp ears listening to this conversation. What's they're problem? I want to rip their ears from their heads! It's annoying me.

"Why brought you here Carlson? Heheh. I thought people like you are always busy with responsibilities-stuff" Chelsea inserted.

"I'm not quite sure about that. I was planning on letting the chips fall where they may. And really appreciate the invite by your teacher. I can't deny myself because I only have limited time to rest, you know" He explained and gave Chelsea a quick wink making the other girls completely jealous. If only stares can kill. Chelsea might not make it to the island. But she just let out a girly sigh while staring at him.

"May I ask for your names please? It would be amazing to have some friends to chat to on our way there" Carlson said.

"Chelsea~~ I can give you company when we get there"

"Oh! Hi Chelsea! Nice to meet you. I'm Carlson." He said then giggled.

Chelsea then turned to me and whispered. "Isn't he so nice? Even when we know everything about him, he still introduces himself."

"How about you miss? May I ask for your name?" I turned to him and raised an eyebrow.

"Sorry. I ain't got time for th—"

"She's Miss Skye Fontaine. I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation but I would like to discuss something with Carlson. He will be sitting with me in the front."

They went and Carlson turned to us and gave us a 'I'm-sorry-i-got-to-go' look.

"Now that's a bummer. We only had that chance to know him more but then sir came and took him away from us... huhuhuhu" Chelsea said.
