Annie

I looked down at the hair tie. "You do?" I asked a little nervous.

"I mean...you know...umm...I meant that..." he nervously laughed and blushed.

"It's fine." I smiled. "So friends?"

"Friends." He said with a nod.

"Great! So how's everyone back in Maryland?" I asked.

"I don't know...I left them to hang out with the popular kids and then turned into a jerk, remember?"

"Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. So you haven't talked to them since?" He shook his head and then stopped.

"Wait, johnny randomly called me the other day. He moved to LA."

"Oh, cool." I said.

"Hey! I should unblock you now." Hayden yelled.

"Hayden! You scared me! Keep your voice lower, we're on a plane." I rolled my eyes.

"Oh, yeah, sorry. Okay! You're officially unblocked from moi!" He said excitedly.

"You act like a little kid." I laughed. His smile turned into a "frown."

"You're so mean. All you do is bully me." He crossed his arms and looked out the window.

I sighed and got my phone out. I took a picture of him on Snapchat and captioned it "I'm getting the silent treatment 😂" I posted it on my story.

"Hayden can we post something on your Instagram or Snapchat story?"

"Fine." He got out his phone and went on Snapchat.

We took a photo with the dog filter and he captioned it "I was forced to do this. Jk💜" and put it on his story.

We talked about random things for the next 30 minutes. Which meant there was about 45 more minutes until we reach Arizona.

I was getting tired and I fell asleep.

Annie fell asleep on my shoulder 40 minutes ago and we're about to land in Arizona. I got a text from Katie (Annie's mom) and she told me to wake Annie up. I looked over to her and nodded.

"Hey, Annie, wake up." I whispered.

She didn't move at all.

"Annie, it's time to get up." I said shaking her.

She moved a little bit, but still didn't open her eyes.

"Anns come on."

She opened her eyes and sat up. "What?"

"The plane is landing in 5 minutes." I told her. She gave me a confused look.
"Why couldn't you wake me up in 5 minutes then?"

"Your mom told me to wake you up." I said putting my hands up in defense.

"How long have I been sleeping?"

"About 40 minutes." I answered. She nodded and put her head on my shoulder.

"Thank you for flying with Delta. If you live here, welcome back home! And if you're just visiting, have a wonderful trip!" The flight attendant said.

The plane finally landed and we got all of our stuff. I only had one bag with me on the flight, so I got it and stood up. Annie was still half asleep, so I put my arm around her.

"Annie are you still awake?" I asked.

"Unfortunately."

"Don't worry, the tour buses are waiting outside the airport." I said.

You're probably wondering why I said "buses." There's two buses since there's a lot of people.

We finally got off the plane and waited for Rush and Brennan to come. Annie and I were sitting down next to each other while the others were waiting for them. Brooke came up to us and noticed that my arm was still around her.

"I thought you two weren't talking to each other?" She asked clearly confused.

"We made up." Annie said calmly.

Brooke looked at me, then at my arm, then at Annie. "Are you two da-"

"No." Annie and i said together. We looked at each other and laughed.

"Trust me, the hannie ship has sailed. We're just friends." I said.

She nodded and sat down with us.

Annie turned her head. "Brennan and Rush are here."

I looked over to them laughing. They spotted us and came over.

"Guys lets go get our ba-" Rush froze, then looked at me.

"Rush, are you okay?" Annie asked.

"Yeah...anyways we should go get our bags." He said.

We got up and went to the baggage claim.

We all got our bags and walked outside.

"Okay so I'm going to say the names of the people in each bus, okay?" Nicole said.

We all nodded.

"Okay in bus A, we have..." She said going through a chart of names.

"Annie, Hayden, Brooke, Katie, Syd, Max, Christian, and me." She called out. "In bus B, we have Rush, Harvey, Brennan, Ariel, Hayley, Elianna, and Michael."

a/n Hayley will be dancing with elianna in most of the shows, but not all

I walked over to bus A with Annie and she went into the bed area. She picked out a bunk on the top and I picked the one across from her.

"Annie you can go to bed and I'll put your suitcase in the bag area under the bus

"Annie you can go to bed and I'll put your suitcase in the bag area under the bus." I said grabbing her suitcase.

"Thanks, winterall." She said climbing up the ladder.

"No problem." I smiled.

I went outside and put all of our bags under the bus. I walked back into the bus and checked the time. It was 7:26am. I yawned and climbed into bed.
