11:35 The road leading up to the tunnel

   We didn't run long considering we both hated Physical activity.

"So." I said trying to start a conversation. "We still need money" Sean said looking up at the sky. "Yeah..." I said slowly, realising the truth. "I have a job, but that will not get me enough money." He said. "Well, I'm sure it's not tha-"

"It pays €9.15. Nothing more. Nothing less." Sean said cutting me off.

"Oh. Right." The rest of the walk was painfully silent.

12 noon - The Tunnel

    Sean and I walked into a spacious but small area. All eyes were on us, waiting for the news. "I got the job!" I said cheerfully. Cori ran to me and gave me the biggest hug. "When do you start?" Cori said after she pulled back. "I , unfortunately, start Friday of next week and get paid minimum wage." Mark walked up to us, placing a hand on Cori's shoulder. "I could get a job that starts today or tomorrow. There is bound to be one." Mark said as he looked up at Sean for a response. "I don't know, but we can look." He said with a shrug. Dan angrily kicked the dirt. "Just someone please get a job because I want food DAMNIT!" Phil placed a loving hand on his shoulder to calm him down. "God Dang, we're going!" Mark said as he walked out with Sean. I turned to the duo to say good bye and when I faced Jack, Cori, Dan and Phil, they gave me a look.

"So..." Jack said leaning closer "Sean?"  Everyone gave me a sideways glance. "Really? We haven't even spent a day outside the walls and your asking me that?" I said walking toward the back of the room. "Yes." Dan said getting very close to my face. "Now tell us!" Phil pulled him back. "Stop it guys. I, one, just got out of a relationship and, two, we haven't spent a day out." I said. Jack got closer, preparing himself to pry it out of me. "She has a point!!" Phil said loudly, causing Jack to return to his job. Cori pushed the rock out of the doorway to let some light into the caveish camp. "Okay, we probably need to stop worrying about relationships and get to work." Cori said taking charge.

14:12

   Sean appeared in the doorway, without Mark. Cori immediately noticed this. "Where is Mark?" She said protectively. "He got a job. It started the moment he got the job." Cori clapped her hands together with a smile. "How much? Where? Is he selling drugs? Can we see him? QUESTIONS!" Dan said getting uncomfortably close to the Irish boy in the doorway. "Okay. He is getting  €15 an hour. He got a job at a convenient store so for each hour he works, he gets a 20% price cut." Sean said quickly, trying to get Dan to respect personal space. "That's awesome! We can hopefully eat sometime soon!" Calvin said sarcastically. Sean glared at him then looked back at us. "He doesn't get paid until Friday." We sighed unison after he said that. We were going to spend one day with no food. "Wait!" I said remembering something. "Calvin said he had food in his bag!" And not a moment later, all eyes were on Calvin. "Oh. Well" He shuffled his feet nervously.
"I might have-" He was cut of by Sean
"You don't have any food do you." Calvin stood there awkwardly. "I... I get angry sometimes and... I like... throw the first thing I see and in this case... It was food, into the ocean." "DAMNIT CALVIN" Dan yelled as he walked toward him and was about to strangle him.

"Guys we can wait on food." Sean said unimpressed. "We need to focus on shelter more than anything." Mark suddenly appeared behind Sean. He walked in and threw his arms around Arin. "How was your first day?" Arin asked like the awesome girlfriend she was. "TERRIBLE! I COULDN'T STAND IT" He yelled throwing his hands up, almost hitting the ceiling. Arin wrapped her arms around his waist. "What happened that was so terrible?" Mark looked down at her with a slight smile. "Being away from you, my love." And a peck on the lips sealed the conversation. "Awe that was cute caN YOU GET A ROOM PLEASE?!?" Jack yelled as he made himself a small patch to sleep on. Soon, everyone was doing the same. Dan and Phil made a patch together along with Cori and Mark. Everyone else had their own.

   I was the last to fall asleep. It's hard for me to fall asleep in a new area. Everyone had been asleep for awhile, so I decided to go out for some fresh air to hopefully clear my thoughts. I sat down on a flat rock I found, near the ocean. The town was silent except for the wind in the trees and the best part was...

The school was out of sight.
