Being a couple was staged, but being in love was real. Marie Cain falls in love with a star. Daniel Seavey is trying his best to hide his feelings behind his blue eyes.

Being a couple was hidden, but...
I see Rhyann kinda sucker punch Zach in the stomach as they walk out of the bathroom. I think she was trying to stop him. I don't think much about it because the only thing on my mind right now is definitely Daniels thumb making circles on my kneecap. Not gonna lie, kinda livin for this moment. I curl up in his lap shoving my head against his chest and listen to the rhythm of his heartbeat. I feel myself fading off to sleep while the rest of the CrEw stay up talking.
I wake up to Zach screaming Hooked into a megaphone. "COME ON WHO THE HELL GAVE HIM A MEGAPHONE," Daniel yelled making me jump five feet in the air. Now THAT woke me up. I sat up and hit Daniel with my pillow then threw my phone at Zach. "BOTH OF YOU SHUT THE TRUCK UP." I get up and walk to the bathroom and get dressed~

I tried to make it cute but comfy because in a half an hour we go on a bus to Portland. When I get on that bus I'm finna take my boots, choker, and jacket off, curl up on the couch and die.
I walk out of the bathroom and a "Damn." slips out of Daniels mouth. "Errr I mean Damn I can't wait for Portland, wooohooo!" He smiles, stands up and walks past me into the bathroom to get dressed too. I pack my shit and of course I'm the last person ready. We head out the door and to the bus on our way to Portland.
On the bus, we all kinda did our own thing, Tyler and Zack were sleeping, Zach and Rhyann were in Zach's cubby bed thing, probably making out. Jonah is making coffee. Eben, Corbyn and Jack are playing fortnite while last but not least me and Daniel are on the couch on our phones.
"Marie?"I look up and see Tyler standing in front of me.
"Yeah?"
"Come with me."
"Mk." I get up and he leads me over to the unoccupied section of the bus. After talking for a while, I walked back to the couch and Daniel wasn't there. He must've gone to get something.
"GUYS, COME PLAY TRUTH OR DARE WITH ME." soon after I screamed that everyone cane and sat in a circle in front of the couch.
"Corbyn, go first."
"Mmmmmkay Mrs. Bossy Pants, Daniel, truth or dare."
"Truth."
"pussy."I mutter underneath my breath.
"Who was the last girl you kissed."
"Like was mentally prepared to kiss? Kate. My last lip to lip contact, was Marie." he looked at me and winked. Damn, ok.
"Truth or dare?" Daniel looks at Corbyn, and Corbyn replies with, "Dare, I'm not a baby."
"Okay, then go get an egg and smash it on the person of your choice's head." Corbyn stands to his feet and walks over to the fridge, revealing three eggs.
"This is so easy." By now Rhyann and Zach were sitting on the couch, cuddled in a blanket. She was partially awake with earbuds in and he was playing a game on his phone. Corbyn walked over to them from behind and dropped one on his head and another on hers.
"You fucker." She got up and Corbyn ran to the back room. Zach didn't even try to hold her back. For one, he was a victim of Corbyn's too. Two, he was rushing to the bathroom to wash the egg out of his hair. "Besson, I will destroy you."
"You were only dared to do one.." I trailed off because Corbyn glared at me with an egg in his hand.
"Chill out Besson..." I say getting up and slowly backing up. Soon he took off in a sprint at me and so I jumped over Daniel, or at least tried to. My foot got caught on Rhyann's blanket and I went plunging to the ground.
Daniel caught me. Corbyn ruined it by getting another egg from the fridge and cracking it on both our heads. Still in Daniels arms and covered in baby chickens, he pulled me closer, after screaming at Corbyn, of course. And I thought, just for a second, that someday we might have a thing. He hugged me, both of us still dripping in yolk, and I felt safe. I got caught up in the moment and genuinely didn't want it to end. Then I decided to not be covered in dead chicks, and go to the bathroom, Daniel trailed.

"MARIE! We're almost to Portland!" I haven't seen Daniel genuinely smile in a few days. He must really miss his family, besides Tyler, who he is always with. He showed me his phone that showed the route we were taking.
"Indeed we are." I laughed at his enthusiasm. We were currently the only two awake, and we were barely awake even so. Jack, Corbyn, Jonah, and the couple were all in their bunks sleeping or doing something. Daniel and I were watching an old Pixar movie and eating popcorn. "I love Mr. Potato Head, me and him, him and I, we should get married." Daniel snorted.
"My favorite character is Rex, like what an iconic character. If I was in Toy Story, I'd be Rex's best friend." He threw a piece of popcorn into the air and caught it in his mouth.
"Good one, let me try." He handed me the bowl and I threw one up, but didn't catch it.
"Here, like this." He did it again and caught it.
"Okay, I got it this time." I threw it up and caught it! "I did it!" I jumped up and down like a little girl.
"I'm gonna throw it and whoever catches it gets a dollar from the other person, deal?"
"That's not fair, but whatever." I handed him the bowl and he threw one piece up. I watched as it turned in the air. I went for it and so did he, in the end, we both knocked our heads together. And as our heads collided, so did our lips. I pulled away immediately and apologized, but I was cut off by his lips meeting mine again. Our lips molded together so perfectly, like they were made for each other. We were moving to our rhythm and it was like I was dreaming. He pulled me into his lap and his hands got tangled in my hair. I heard a creak from behind me, but I didn't know if it was my mind being paranoid. I broke the kiss from smiling, just thinking about there being an "us" made me crack a smile. Yeah.. I'm definitely falling for him. Damn you, Seavey.
"Uh.. Hey guys." Tyler stands there awkwardly in the doorway of the back room. "I was going to grab my phone charger.." He grabs his charger and leaves after shutting the door. Then I awkwardly get up and walk to the bathroom. As I shut the door, my phone dings and it was a text from Tyler with an attachment.
