John/Jackie

My phone started buzzing, I woke up. It was still raining. Alex was softly snoring next to me. Rubbing my eyes, I answered the phone.

"Hello?" I yawned.
"Jack!"
"Yes Peggy."
"Get your ass ready, we're going on a week road-trip."
"What the fuck?? It's 2:30 am!"
"Angelica's got dad's truck, get Alex up, Eliza, Marquis, and Herc are coming too."
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"Somewhere, just pack clothes and bring your hiking + skiing gear!" She hung up.

"Why." I mumbled. I guess I gotta get Alex up. He looked so peaceful. "Alex." I shook him. "Lex." I gently shook him again. I kissed him on the cheek. "Lexi, get up, pack your stuff, and bring hiking gear." I smiled. "Goodmorning to you too, where are we going? And I dont have hiking gear, I've never been hiking before." He sighed. "Hey, its okay, his will be the first I guess, I dont quite know where we are going, Peggy just called, saying a week roadtrip, and to pack stuff and bring hiking gear, dont worry I have some you can use." I smiled.

"Okay." He got up, walking to his room. I smiled and watched him do so. He smiled at me.

I began to pack my things, gathering clothes and putting together my gear. I threw on a long sleeve shirt and some warm pants, with a sweater and vest. "Alex!" I yelled. "Hmm?" He yelled back. "You ready?" "Yep!" We both walked into the livingroom with our bags. "I'll call-" My phone buzzed. "Peggy! I was just about to call you, we're ready."
"Perfect, we got everyone, come down to the lobby."
"On our way."

Your probably wondering why we have all this time. Its fall break. We have a week and two days off. Next break, is Christmas. We may not have classes but we sure do have hella homework. Alex and I walked and took the elevator down to the lobby. Peggy hugged us both.

"Angelica!" I smiled. "John, how are you. And your new roomate, Alex, right?" She smiled. "Yes ma'am." He shook her hand. "Well, glad to know, and glad you could join us on our trip." She smiled. "So, where the hell are we going?" I asked. "Oh, Canada." Eliza smiled. "Canada!??" I said. "Mhm." "Driving?! To Canada?"
"Yes."
"Angelica that's an 8 and a half hour drive!!" I said.
"Yep, which is why we are leaving now."
"Dont worry, we're stopping for breakfast and lunch when it gets time. You guys can sleep, but Herc and I are gonna take turns driving." "Yeah." He smiled.

"So, we should be there by like 3 pm?" I asked. "Yes."
"When the hell did you guys plan-"
"Stop talking, put your stuff in the back and buckle up." She smiled. Not used to being up this early, its still dark out. "Fuzzy blankets anyone?" Peggy smiled. "Oui!" Marq smiled eagerly and took one. I took one and spread it out over Alex and I. Peggy wrapped one around Angelica before climbing in the back and wrapping one around her and Eliza. Angelica started up the truck and drove off. Not long after, Alex pulled out his laptop. I looked at him. "Can I help you?" He smiled. "Nah, I just like looking." I smiled. "Fine with me." He said. We both chuckled. Eliza sat in the back next to Peggy, Alex and I, while Herc and Laf sat in the front, while Angelica drove. I have to say Mr. Schuyler's truck is pretty open spaced for a pickup truck.

"Geez Lex, what are you typing?" I asked. "Email to my adoptive dad." He replied. "Oh, what'ya talkin about?" I asked. Damn my South Carolina accent just kicked in. Alex chucked. "That was adorable, now I know you're from the south. And to answer your question, he asked how it was going so far, he lives in Connecticut, but bought a house upstate and is getting it set up." He smiled. "Sounds nice." My smile faded. Thinking of my father. "Wait, how do you have wifi." I asked. "Hotspot." He replied, and continued typing. "He's up this early? I mean. It just turned 3:34 am." I looked at my phone. "No, John. He's not, but it doesnt mean I cant talk to him." He chuckled. "You asked so many questions, usually it's me that askes everything." He smiled at me. I leaned on his shoulder. "Nice to have a change isnt it." I yawned. "Yeah, it is." He smiled. Slowly but surly, I began to fall asleep.
