Train Air

Five

In the morning, Jeanine and I saw some people were gone. "OMG what if they were murderd?!" Jeanine says. "Jeanine, they are probably in the bathroom. Everyone goes in the morning" I say."Oh, yeah, your right" she replies. we fold our seats back into chairs, after they were folded into mattresses last night.then a lady comes to order us breakfast." Can i start you girls off with something to drink?" she asks. "I'll take coffee!" Jeanine says."Jeanine!" i say."What?" she says.  We'll just take orange juice for now" I say. the lady hands us cups of orange juice.

       "I'll come back later to take your order" she says. I face Jeanine,""ok, we are only 10 days away from Manhattan, we can do this!"I tell her. "10 days?!" she says. "yes!" I say. the lady comes back in literally 10 seconds and asks us if we are ready to order. "sure, i'll have some bacon with eggs, hard boiled please."  I say. she writes it down in her note pad. "and i'll have pancakes with your strawberry delight special" Jeanine says. the lady writes Jeanines order in the note pad, nods her head with a smile, puts her note pad in her pocket and leaves. An hour later our food finally gets here we've forgotten all about it because we took so long. Jeanine and i usually play cards, read, or eat when we are bored on the train.

    "Can you go get me that man's water? i dont feel like buying one" Jeanine says pointing at a water bottle on the floor." ugh fine" i say. I sneakily crawl on the floor all the way to the mans seat, not even caring if other people saw me. i grab the water bottle and stand up, where i bump into a boy, he seemed about my age. he had brown eyes with hair that looked like it was in the middle of blonde and brown.he was.....kind of cute. "did you just steal my brothers water bottle?" he says. " oh, thats your brother?" I ask. "nah go ahead take it. he hasnt drinken anything out of it for a long time, its not even water" he says laughing. from the corner of my eye i see Jeanine taking a picture of the boy and I talking. " if its not water, what is it?" I ask. " you know the chocolate shake things that old people drink?" he says to me. "oh" i respond."well....thank you!" i say walking back to my seat. "wait" he says as he grabs my arm." what's your name?" he asks. " it's Eva, what's your's?" i ask. "Zachary" he says but you can call me Zack. he smiles and leaves. then i sit back at my seat." whoa what was that?" Jeanine says.

 " i dont know he randomly just started talking to me" 

"you like him dont you!"

 "what?! no!" 

" hee hee yea you do" 

"whatever"

  " heres your water" i say handing her the shake. she drinks it then spits it out. i laugh. "Eww Eva what is this?" she says. " i dont know some drink for old ladies" i say."ugh, if I spend another 3 seconds in this train with the taste of old lady in my mouth, im gonna be sick!" she says covering her mouth."ok come on the bathrooms over here i'll hold your hair back." I say. we head all the way to the back of the train were the bathroom is. i hold her hair back while she pukes in the toilet, trying to cover my eyes but still hold her hair. "ok im done" she says. "finally, that was disgusting."

. we both take a second to look around the bathroom. the sink had a lot of cracks in it, the toilet was covered with stains, and Jeanine's puke, there was even a freaking shower! but it was also disgusting. ugh i've never been in any room so hideous! this makes me miss home. but then i remind myself why i came here. to take back Winston. "Hey whats this?" Jeanine says. there was a random doorknob on the wall in the back of the room. it had a keyhole in it. Jeanine and i look at each other knowing i should use my key to see if it works.

i take the key out of my pocket......

put it in the hole.....

and then......
