Random One Shots (GirlxGirl)

Snowed in

It was the week before Christmas and I was on a ski trip with my outdoor recreation class. If I'm being honest I didn't really want to be here. I had been skiing more times than I could count and I would rather be at home with my sister who was home for the holidays. The only reason I was here was because I needed the credits to graduate. At the moment I was lying on my bed with a headache and a slightly sore back and arms. Before we had even started down the hill someone crashed straight into me causing me to roll/fall about 100 meters down the hill. It didn't hurt as much as you might expect it to because I had on my ski jacket and pants, but I had hit my head a little bit which is the reason for the headache.

"Riley we're going out for dinner now," Mrs Thompson told me after she knocked at the open door.

"I think I'm going to stay here if that's alright? My head still hurts."

"Yeah that's okay, Alyssa doesn't feel well so she is staying here as well," She told me and left. I sighed and lay back on the bed. Alyssa was the last person I wanted to be stuck with. It wasn't because I didn't like her, I had nothing against her, she was the one who seemed to hate me. The reason she hated me wasn't my fault at all. Her ex boyfriend had kissed me one night at a party and told her that I was that one who kissed him. I didn't even know that they were in a relationship. She had been giving me shit ever since and I was over it so I avoided her as much as possible. Although that was pretty much impossible this trip because I happened to be sharing a room with her.

After lying down about half an hour I decided to go downstairs and get a glass of water. The cabin we were staying in belonged to Mrs Thompson's family. It had five bedrooms, four of which had two beds and one of the rooms only had one bed. There were 9 of us on this trip including Mrs Thompson so it was two people per room with Mrs Thompson having her own room. Downstairs was a simple open plan room with the kitchen and table at one end and the living room at the other end. The living room had a 5 seater L-shaped couch, a couple of recliners and bean bags. There was also a window seat with a great view of the mountains.

"Ugh it's you," Alyssa commented distastefully once she saw me.

I rolled my eyes, "Yes it's me, got a problem with that?"

Before Alyssa had a chance to come up with some smart ass reply my phone rang. It was Mrs Thompson informing me that all the roads to the cabin were closed because of heavy snowfall making it dangerous to drive. The roads were expected to be closed until tomorrow morning at the earliest so they had to stay in town leaving Alyssa and I alone for the night.

"Awesome, you're exactly who I want to be stuck with," Alyssa replied sarcastically when I told her.

"Like I want to be stuck with you either," I replied before going to sit on the window seat. Not that I could see much except a couple of lights and a lot of snow. The fire was going so the room was nice and warm. After watching the snow for a little bit I began reading the book that I started a couple of days ago. The book was 'Extreme Survivors: 60 of the World's Most Extreme Survival Stories' by Bear Grylls. My sister had found it in a small book shop on her college campus and thought I would like it so she brought it for me. So far it was a good book. Reading has always been one of my favourite things to do, mainly because it lets me be apart of a different world and different lives for a while.

I was completely engrossed in the book when music started playing pretty loudly. After unsuccessfully trying to block it out I put my book down and looked up at Alyssa who was on her phone.

"Can you please turn the music down?" I asked as politely as possible.

Alyssa barely looked away from her phone, "Na."

I stood up to go back to the room, "Do you have to be such a bitch all the time?"

"Just to you."

"Why? What the hell did I ever do to you?" I was completely over her shit. For a long time I've acted like it didn't effect me at all, but it does.
