It had been hours since we left, we were. driving along side fields of dead grass. eventually we stopped at gas station, the driver said we were gonna stay there till a couple of other busses arrived, so we had time to run around play. Eric got out quickly enough. I got out and breathed in the air, looked around and i spotted the boy with the twins. he set them down on the concrete in front of the abandoned store that used to run the gas station. Another boy around my age ran to him. he had black hair and a round face just like the older boy, so I assumed he was his brother. I walked over to them.
"hello!" i said trying to sound as cheerful as possible. the older boy looked at me and smiled.
"hello there, how are you?" he asked politely.
"fine, you?" I responded
"good" he nodded.
"..my name is Amanda, what is your's?"
"my name is sam" he pointed to the younger boy, "and thats my little brother Christopher" Christopher just simply waves.
"its nice to meet you, i have a little brother too, his name is Eric"
"oh cool" Sam replied. I looked over at Eric running around giggling in the feild chasing older kids pretending to be scared. i pointed to him,
"thats him". sam looks at him and smiles.
"he looks like a good kid" i smiled
"yeah, hes pretty cool, except when he gets on my nerves" Sam laughed.
"yeah, im pretty all brothers are like that" he looked at Christopher.
"eh" Christopher stuck his tongue out at sam and walked over to a girl who looked a little older, she had long brown hair and green eyes. I looked at Sam.
"who's that?" i asked curious. Sam smirks,
"its his girl frieend" he says with a sassy tone.
"oooo" i laughed and looked at Christopher talk to the girl. "my mom always said im too young to date" sam shrugs "our parents said that too, but, he dosnt seem to care, hes kind of disobedient butthole" I laughed.
Eventually the other two busses came, and we all crammed back into our seats, And we were on the road again. I decided to go to sleep, but i was soon waken up by delightful yelling by the kids. i woke up confused, then soon realized what they were so excited about, i looked outside and saw that it was snowing. it was a nice thing to look at, especially since it only rained in the places ive lived. many little kids were begging the driver to stop and let them play. but we continued on despite the little kids's complaints. as we moved along it continued to snow. After hours of driving it finally became night, the busses stopped by the road and we were to stay there for the night. many kids slepts in their seats, toddlers slept in their laps, some kids even took there bags got out a blanket and slept on floor. Eric laid down and used my lap as a pillow. I leaned back, stared at the ceiling, and eventually fell asleep.The next day i was awoken by gunshots. i looked around and saw a couple of little kids crying, kids on the floor frantically putting their stuff in their bags. I looked at the driver who was outside banging the sides of the other busses yelling "WE SLEPT IN! WE NEED TO GET GOIN!". I looked outside wondering where the gunshots were coming from, i saw smoke in the distance, probably where the gunshots were coming from. soon enough the busses speeded off. I sighed and relaxed, knowing that we were safe. we drove on, we later stopped at a restroom, for a bathroom break. I got out to stretch my limbs. i looked at sam holding one of the twins, Christopher holding the other. i walked over to them.
"hey guys, how are you?" sam looked at me and smiled.
"ehe, pretty good..erm, do you by any chance know how to change a diaper?"
i smiled.
"of course"
"perfect!" he hands Riley to me "can you please change him? and help Chris change Jake's?"
"wait, why do i have to do it to?" Christopher complained.
"gotta learn how to do it at some point" Sam said smiling.
"hey but what about you?! this isnt fair" Christopher objected.
"cmon Christopher" i said as i grabbed his shirt and practically dragged him to the girls bathroom. a girl looked like she just got done changing her little sister's diaper, i stopped her. "excuse me, do you have a couple of extra diapers?"
"oh yeah! here" she took out a couple of diapers out of her bag and handed then to me.
"thank you!"
"no problem" she left.
"alright, heres the fun part" i layed Riley on the changing table, Christopher layed Jake next to him. i took off his pants and took off his diaper.
"ugh! can we switch babies?! this one has diarrhea!" i laughed and shook my head. I took a paper towel and wiped his bottom, Christopher copying my actions, tho more unwilling, and more complaining. all of a sudden Jake started peeing, Christopher quickly backed up but wasnt quick enough, Jake got it on his shirt. "EWW!! HE PEED ON MY SHIRT" at that point i could control myself, i started laughing hysterically. But that only lasted for 7 seconds, when riley, also peed, i was caught off guard, and wasnt able to back up in time. i was silent, looking at my peed on shirt. now Christopher was laughing, "AHA! you deserved it!" i sighed and put the fresh diaper on Riley, put his pants back on him, and took him out with Christopher holding Jake. I gave Riley back to Sam. Sam looked at us and scrunched up his nose.
"ugh! you two smell!"
"im gonna go change" i said walking back into the bus where my bag was. i grabbed a new shirt and walked back into the bathroom to change. after i got out, it was time to go, i got back into the bus and put on my jacket. and we started moving again.
