Sam walked out to see Jack and Oliver waiting by the door. They went over to her as soon as they saw her.
"Oliver, can I hide my clothes in your bag until we get into our room?" asked Sam.
"Yeah, of course."
Oliver kneeled down while taking the clothes from her and zipping them inside his bag. When he stood back up, he studied Sam's new look.
"Not bad. Not bad. I think you can actually pull off being a boy pretty well. You did a good job of making your chest look flat too."
Sam looked at him with an offended expression and covered her chest with her arms.
"I didn't do anything..."
Jack immediately let out a, "Pfft," and covered his mouth with his hand.
Oliver flailed around after realizing what he said.
"Sam! Ah, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make it sound like that!"
Sam dropped her arms and laughed at his reaction.
"It's fine. I'm aware that I'm flat, but I don't really mind because it will help me disguise myself better."
She paused for a few seconds.
"B-Besides, big boobs would just get in the way of playing basketball," she said trying to build her pride back up.
Jack chuckled at her comment and then said, "You can definitely pull this off for now. But Sam, you're going to have to do something about your long hair for the future."
"I know. Once we figure out this room situation I'll do something about it."
"Okay, let's get our luggage first and head over to the dorms," said Jack.
Sam said, "Alright!" while Oliver chimed in, "Let's go!"
The trio headed over to the luggage check-in to get their remaining suitcases. Sam waited in a different line where there was a new person working in case the previous person recognized her. Once she got her bag, she bolted back to Jack and Oliver. They sighed in relief and smiled at each other.
Sam, Jack, and Oliver headed to the dormitories next. They noticed that there were two long lines heading out the doors; one for boys and one for girls.
"Ugh, I hate waiting in lines," groaned Oliver.
"Because you have too much energy. You're like a rabbit on drugs," said Jack.
"No I'm not!"
Sam smiled while watching them bicker back and forth; she could tell that they were really close friends. After their squabble, the trio walked over to the boy's line and waited for their turn.
When they got to the front, Oliver whined, "Finally!"
"Dude, you're so impatient. That only took like, 7 minutes," said Jack.
Sam laughed when Oliver turned his face away with a, "Hmph!"
All of a sudden, Jack exclaimed, "Shit! Sam!"
"What!"
He leaned down and motioned for Sam and Oliver to come in closer.
"Your first name is going to show up as Samantha huh?" whispered Jack.
"Oh, no it won't. My parents literally named me Sam. No '-antha' attached to it," she whispered back.
Jack sighed in relief.
"Oh thank god. We would have been screwed if your name showed up as Samantha on the computer. You should be thankful your parents gave you that name given our situation."
