- Cassidy's POV
"Guys I'm so excited!" I said happily as all eight of us piled into my kombi van.
"This is going to be amazing." Kaitlyn squealed as she took the seat next to me. We already decided that Cameron would drive for the first hour, and I would be driving for the second hour since this was a two hour trip. It was now 6am and the sun was just rising over the horizon.
"Why did we have to get up so early?" Taylor groaned as he sat in the seat opposite me. I took a pillow from my seat and threw it in his face with a laugh. He immediately threw it straight back at me.
"Don't do that. It's too early." He smirked.
"Dibs on the aux cord first." Dylan said as he sat beside Taylor.
"Dibs? How old are you, five?" I scoffed and Dylan rolled his eyes. Olivia sat up the front with Cameron while Sawyer, Kaitlyn, Willow, Cassidy, Taylor and I sat at the back.

"Hey Liv, how long have we been driving for?" I shouted to the front seat, since there was so much noise coming from the back seat.
"Almost an hour." She replied. She had been so quiet this whole trip. I feel like maybe we had scared her a little bit because of how noisy we were.
"Guys shut up for a second." I said as I leaned further towards the front of the van. Willow and Kaitlyn obeyed me but the boys continued to talk.
"Cameron, take the next exit and I'll take over driving." I shouted as I leaned both my hands on either side of the van to keep myself balanced. My actions proved futile however because as Cameron turned the van, I jolted forwards and landed on Sawyer's lap.
"Whoa." He muttered and helped me return to my seat. Everyone laughed and I even saw Olivia smile. The van pulled over next to a public rest room and Cameron and I switched seats so I was sitting next to Olivia in the driving seat. I was actually happy because now I had a whole hour to get to know Olivia and to help her feel welcome. Hopefully, she wasn't too awkward.
After a quick toilet break we were back on the road.
"So Olivia, do we have any classes together? I've never seen you before." I said, attempting to start conversation.
"Yeah we have French, English and PE together." She answered quietly while looking out the window.
"Oh." I mumbled. That's weird that I've never noticed her before. I guess she was just really quiet while I was the complete opposite. It was silent for a few minutes while I paid attention to my driving. I felt too uncomfortable sitting in silence with Olivia while the backseat was filled with noise so I tried to start up another conversation.
