Bus Ride Back

So you know, the guys' ages are not going to be the age they should be. I lowered their ages a little, but not by much. So Ponyboy and Bree are 18. Soda, Steve and Johnny are 20. Dally is 21, Two-bit is 22, and Darry is 25.

I woke up this moring ready to go and excited. I woke up Lilly, since the Tulsa bus was gonna be leaving first before the other buses. Then Texas, then New York and the other buses that are going else where then those three places. Lilly woke up and about punched me for waking her up, but I've learned to cath her fist before she punched me.

"C'mon, we're gonna miss the bus!" I said dragging her out of bed. She grabbed her bag and I grabbed mine. We decied to skip breakfast, plus we brought all the cookies and muffins from our room back at the school. Her and I left outside and got on the bus. The back seats were taken by Jason and his friend. It wasn't one that we knew, but it was still his friend. Lilly went into the seat in front of her brother and I sat across from her.

We left and that's when Lilly fell asleep again, his friend didn't do anything but yell on the bus. He was so loud, I got up and kicked him and told him to shut up or move to the front of the bus. So he moved to the front and Jason invited me to sit with him. I did and I sat on the inside next to him. He took the outside chair, our hair was blowing in the wind with all the windows open. Some of the guys from that school kept farting and it smelt like mold.

"Excited to go back?" I asked him.

"I guess, I'll be back with Lilly and you, the guys. But I don't know what I'll be doing." He said. I nodded and understood what he meant. Because him, Lilly and I have smartened up and listen most of the time to the rules and what were told. He had a camera with him too, he took picutres of Lilly while she slept. He does it all the time and he use to do that when he was smaller too. Then him and I took some, he wanted me to some weird one. He told me to close eyes for the picutre. So I did and then he took the picture, but my face. I could feel something brush up against my face.

"Let me see." I said. He shook his head and smirked. He got up and ran down the isle of the bus as I chased him for it. I was able to tackle him and I grabbed the picture from his hand. It was me with my eyes closed and he kissed the side of my cheek. Him and I kissed last night too, so he knows, we're not a thing. I still have a little bit of feeling for Jayden, even though he left me.

"You're kidding right?" I asked.

"Nope, proof I had a girlfriend" He said and smiled. I got off him and walked to the back of the bus and sat down in the chair by the window. He walked back here and sat next to me smirking, it was a stupid comment. He never had a girlfriend, unless he had one before he met me, because he's been single the whole time.

"What?!" He said and looked at me. I shook my head.

"You sure are something. Wanna know something?" I asked, oh yeah. I am gonna tell him about Jake kissing his little sister last night. Jason's older then her by 6 minutes. He nodded.

"Depends what your gonna tell me." He said.

"Yes or No?" I asked and looked him in the eyes. He nodded and I thought of a way to say it. His bestfriend and his sister kissed last night or his sister kissed someone last night? Maybe he'll flip less if he doesn't who kissed her or she kissed them, one or the other.

"Your sister kissed someone last night." I said, his eyes went wide and he looked at me. He got up and looked into the seat in front of us at Lilly, who's asleep still and we still have three hours left before we get to Tulsa. I pulled him back down in our seat and he looked at me with his big eyes filled with fear.

"Tell me it wasn't Ryan" He asked. I shook my head. I'd die if she kissed Ryan. Ryan probably went around kissing many girls last night.

"Who was it?" He asked.
