We woke up at 4 am to get to school for this trip. "Baaaaaabe, im tirrrred." i moaned to Paige.

"I know, I know. But we had to get up." he says kissing my forehead.

"Ugh. Can I sleep on you on the way?"

"Yes you can." he says chuckling slightly.

Once we arrived at school we checked in with Mr. Chad and set our stuff down. "Hey guys!" I hear Rachel say as her friend Lukas runs over to us as well. "I ship you guys so much already!" Rachel says with a smile.

"Me too." Lukas chimes in.

Lukas' comment made Paige look down awkwardly with a light pink blush on his cheeks.

"Hi guys." I giggle.

Paige smiles at me making me smile wide back at him. "So are you guys gonna sit behind us?"

"Of course!" Rachel and Lukas smile at us.

"I wanna see you guys kiss." Rachel says smirking. We've never kissed in front of anyone before. I blush.

"Maybe." Paige says. I watch Rachel's smile drop.

"Awwwwwweee why noooot?" she whines.

"We've never kissed before let alone in front of someone." i quickly lie. Paige smiles at me and chimes in.

"Exactly." he says wrapping an arm around me.

"Well our goal is to get you guys to kiss." Lukas says wrapping his arm around Rachel.

I giggle "you guys are cute."

"W-what?!" Lukas manages to get out, quickly pulling his arm away from Rachel.

"Everyone on the bus!" Mr. Chad yells as students run out the small doors and scrambling onto the bus. Lukas and Rachel sit in a seat and Paige and I take the seat in front of them.

I yawned as Mr. Chad, Mrs. Burgs and Mrs. Armino were going over some things and talking about respect and all that jazz. Once the bus started moving i pulled out a box of Zebra cakes. "Want one?" i offered to Paige.

"Sure." he says taking the cake i handed to him. I set my head on his shoulder and ate the cake in like two bites.

"Awwwweee!" i hear Rachel and Lukas squeal from behind us. I giggle and turn around seeing them wide eyed and smiling.

"You guys are crazy." i giggle as the kid next to us starts to bug Paige. I see that Paige is ok with it but a few hours later notices he's starting to get on his nerves.

"Nathan, i don't wanna see your dumb shit." Paige says handing Nathan's phone back to him.

"But its funny."

"I don't care." Paige says a bit angrily.

"Babe, just ignore him." i whisper to Paige.

"Don't you think I've tried?" i know it's a retorical question and wait for the rest. "The next time i hear Gucci Gang or Dab im gonna kill someone." he says looking into my eyes, which makes me blush a bit.

"Just deny everything he trys to say to you." i pull out a bottle of water "besides, he'll eventually understand you're not in the mood and leave you alone." i take a sip. Knowing Nathan he's an annoying shit that doesn't stop. Ever. "It'll be fine." i place my head on his shoulder. "We'll be to the Reformatory in no time then he'll be distracted by everything else."

He smiles. "Hopefully." he sets his head on top of mine.

About an hour and a half later we arrive at the Ohio State Reformatory. We step off the bus and a giant gust of freezing wind hits me hard. I start to shiver. "Are you cold?" Paige asks.
