Canada filled with excitement and chills, only problem was that only I was feeling the enchantment, the Loran’s students where to used to exotic trips that they were actually complaining about boring old Canada. Morning started rather late as I woke up at 5:30 am and it was still fairly dark. Rosalie was the funniest girl to have as a roommate. She wore a night mask and ear plugs, her sheets were all over the floor plus her pillows as well. Kate slept like a mummy, never moved from her position, and she was all wrapped up in her sheets. Lucy slept like the sweet girl she was, although her grinning face was really creepy and if you didn’t know her you’d think she’d be having a perverted dream.
I finished putting my winter gear which was some white skinny jeans, a turquoise long sleeve shirt with a cream tank top underneath and my favorite navy short coat that flourished at the bottom. I put my brown boots and spread some waterproof spray around, put my white scarf and beanie and don’t forget my only furry gloves. My body was still not used to the cold. When I left my room I saw a few girls already up, including Vanessa she had taken my advice and was befriending some other girls, at least I think she was. I gave them a big smile as a greeting and continued walking.
“Pref, some girls already left the cabin” said Thao, a chubby Asian girl who seemed to think she was a know-it-all, therefore she had few friends.
“Ugh, and why the hell would they do that!” I got frustrated thinking that I needed to go outside to the cold already. Jonathan suddenly entered the cabin with three other girls, my missing girls.
“Alexandra! You left some fish out of your tank” he said trying to be serious but forgetting he was smiling.
“I’m sorry, I got up as soon as possible, I can’t believe these girls got even earlier” I said smiling back
“It’s fine, they went for a little walk with their boyfriends, from my cabin, and all got busted” he did seem to be enjoying scolding them.
“It’s already six o’five, I think you should wake the girls up. Breakfast is at eight sharp” he winked and left while I nodded his whole way out the door. I went to all of the rooms, waking them up, it was surprising that they had gotten up on their own.
Breakfast went fast, I never imagined that being responsible for a group of students could be so tiring and this was only the first day out. The only thing I was able to bite down was an apple. We had so many things planned for today, we went to Quebec, and only saw half of the attractions we planned to see. And at last it was time to get some lunch!
The place chosen was really adorable; it was a supposed scenery in the Victorian era. Outside were pretty gardens, now covered in snow of course, there was a lake on the left side, its view was covered by many trees along the road. The restaurant, more like a café, was antique. The lights were very dim, and it was all in cherry wood, I wondered if the old smell was real or the owners bought a refresher that smelled that way. There were some students in the outdoor part of the café.
As I was checking the list, eyeing that each girl was here and had already gotten something to eat or was still in line, I stumbled with Nate Flannigan, as I recall I always saw him with Bryan, but he was sitting along beside a waterless fountain over thinking something.
“It’s very weird seeing you without Bryan” I smiled and sat next to him.
“Well times like this he’s very busy keeping an eye on all of us, barely has time for himself” he said flicking a quarter up and down. “Say you and Kate are very close, right?” he said in an awful low tone trying to not let people know what they were talking about.
“Well I guess; why?” I knew where this conversation was heading. And I knew more about Nate than he thinks, since he’s been Kate’s crush for a very long while. The only things that stopped her from breaking that time when she almost got raped was Nate being her prince charming and after seeing how Nate took care of her I knew he was vey fond of her. If she only knew that he was asking me these types of questions, it be better than reading six books in a month for her.
“Well do you know if she’s dating anyone or has her eyes set on someone?” his pleading eyes were begging for a no and I shook my head. “So has she ever mentioned something about me?”
“Nate, if you want to know if Kate likes you why don’t you go and ask her yourself” I said half annoyed and half teasing
“I’ve tried since September, well even earlier, since January! And something always comes up, last time was the ridiculous list” his voice suddenly became lower and he turned to look at the ground.
“I’m pretty sure you’d be amazed to just ask her yourself and hear what she has to say” I said again trying to convince him and get this love story continued.
“Me too, but now that Bryan’s got a sudden interest in her, it’s hopeless” he frowned.
“Bryan? Bryan’s not interested in Kate and you’re making Bryan sound as if every girl he wants falls in love with him” he gave me a serious look as if ‘well don’t they?’
“And how do you know that?”
“Because” I couldn’t think for a reason; that’s right, how did I know Bryan didn’t like someone, how do I know that, that someone isn’t Kate, for all I know he could be married but “We spend everyday after school together. His time is very limited, and I mean isn’t he like your best friend?” he nodded “Bryan’s not the type of guy to steal his best friend’s gal” he somehow grinned a little and nodded. We decided to go to the indoors are since I was getting frost bite, plus we wanted to spot those two, and we did, just not like we wanted them.
“Kate was in Bryan’s arms, her eyes were wide as if something had surprised her, her cheeks were flushed. Bryan’s hands were on her back gripping her tightly; he was out of breath and looking at her intensely. My heart hurt again this was exactly what I didn’t want to see; Nate’s reaction was even worse. He looked pale and intensely at Bryan. Bryan noticed we were watching and whispered something in Kate’s ear. He smiled at us, grabbed Kate’s hand and left.
“Uhh Nate?” I turned to see if he was okay
“I’ll see you around, okay Alex” he said leaving my side and following their trail. It couldn’t be true.
