Mia Rain: Bayside High

Deep Sea Diver

"This is so boring!" Lisa whined. I sighed and relaxed myself on my spot in the school bus. Zack waved from behind with Screech and Slater. I smiled and waved back. Kelly and Jessie sat across from me and Lisa. Our classmates from English were in other seats too. Wanna know why? We're on a field trip to the actual nature. In translation, the woods. We're actually camping. It's kinda cool because I've camped before with Deana, Lexi and the KB gang. Only till thunderstruck and a tree fell beside Deana. Overall, I had fun. We only got to go on the field trip if we passed our history exam. Thankfully, we succeeded. Maybe this trip with my friends will be different. Not counting on it though. Lisa sighed and snapped a picture of herself on Instagram. I rolled my eyes. "Preppy, your shoulder's squished on my arm." Slater slightly growled. "Your arm's on my shoulder." He growled. Jessie sighed. "Can you guys stop complaining? We're camping! Isn't that fun?" She asked. I nodded in agreement. "They're probably too squished on each other." I said. Lisa raised an eyebrow. "Tell that to Screech." She said. He was smashed against the bus window. "Guys, can we please switch seats?" He whined. We looked at each other and shrugged. Slater sat next to Jessie across. Kelly was behind with Lisa. Screech breathed a breath of relief and rubbed his cheek. Zack smiled, sitting next to me. I returned the gesture. Jessie and Slater smiled and kissed. He sighed happily. "All better now." He said. I laughed and rested my head on his shoulder. Belding got up from the front seat. Did I forgot to mention he's chaperoning? "Hey, hey, hey! Everyone, we're camping in the beautiful sight of nature! We can even make s'mores and hot chocolate." He said, smiling. He let out another high-pitched snicker. "I gotta go pee, Slater." I heard Screech whisper. He rolled his eyes. "Screech, can't you hold it?" He asked. Finally, the bus pulled over. We're officially in the wilderness. "I can't hold it anymore!" He whined. He ran out of the bus. Belding sighed. "Alright, grab your bags and let's go to the campsite." He said. We grabbed our bags and followed him out of the bus. Belding led us to the campsite. A few logs were on the ground. "Make your tents and get ready to explore nature!" He said, letting out another snicker. Zack pretended to laugh with him. I chuckled. Everyone else began making their tents in a circle. "Wanna share a tent with me?" Zack asked softly. I raised an eyebrow. "Really? It's a field trip, Zack." I said. He fake pouted. "I know but I wanna be alone with you tonight." He said. I laughed and wrapped my arm around his neck. "How can we do it?" I whispered.
He smirked. "Leave it to me." He said. I smiled and opened my bag of ingredients to make s'mores. Their eyes widened. "You're making s'mores?" Screech asked, eyes filled with wonder. I was confused. "Ain't that's apart of camping?" I asked. Slater sighed. "It is till Belding talks about nature's beautiful trees and sunflowers." He said. The gang couldn't help chuckling. I smirked. "Well this camping trip needs a little fun! Who wanna make s'mores tonight with me?" I said. Kelly smiled excitingly. "I do!" She said. "Me too!" Lisa chirped. We shared confusion. "Lisa, you can't cook." Jessie said. She nodded in agreement. "Oh yeah." She said. "Class, let's go ahead and explore nature's waters." Belding said. We finished unpacking and followed him. Zack caught up to me and smiled. I returned the gesture. "Tent's all done! What am I missing?" He said. I blushed, knowing what he'll do. "Zack, don't." I said. He picked me up and spun me around. "My princess!" He said, smiling. I laughed. He put me down and kissed my cheek. We continued the walk through the woods. We came across the wide ocean. It's kinda beautiful and peaceful. Screech gasped. "How do we know lake monsters aren't there?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. Lisa sighed. "So they can eat you like a popsicle." She sassed. Belding sighed. "Alright, alright. There's no lake monsters and this is the most safest woods in California." She said. I crossed my arms. "Hopefully, no sharks either." I said. Jessie lightly chuckled. "M, you're afraid of sharks?" She asked. I put my hands up in surrender. "I just don't go deep in the water." I said. Slater scoffed. "Relax, sharks aren't that common here." He said. Zack's hand intertwined with mine's. "I'll protect you." He whispered. I smiled warmly. "Whoo hoo!" A scream heard. Our eyes diverted to a couple of kids in swimwear and dancing. The one who screamed took a leap off the cliff into the ocean. It was happening on the right side of the woods. Lisa groaned softly. "Those kids are so lucky." She muttered. "Don't worry, once Belding's sleep, we can do whatever we want late at night." Zack whispered. Slater smiled. "Cool!" He said. "Cmon, let's go see the waterfalls." Belding said. Kelly cheered excitingly. "Ooh, waterfalls!" She said. Randi smiled and held her hand. "Only better with you." He said. I looked at them in awe. She madly blushed as everyone left and Belding led the way. I almost left till somebody tapped me. A brown-haired girl with sunglasses. I could ignore but she looked as if she was completely worried. "Please help!" She said, sounding terrified. "What? What's wrong?" I asked. "Our friend is still in the water! We have no idea if they're ok!" She panicked. Am I really gonna go save somebody? Well, they could be drowning. It would be my fault if I didn't do something. I sighed. "Ok, I'm going in." I told her. I undressed myself, showing my bra and panties. I immediately jumped into the ocean. I carefully held my breath as I began swimming. I kept swimming till I saw somebody floating under. That must be her! I swam faster and grabbed her waist. She was unconscious. My grip around her stayed tight. I came up, gasping for air. I swam quickly to shore. It made it a little hard considering she was heavy. Finally, I carefully laid her on the ground and caught my breath. That friend of hers was nowhere to be found. Seriously? What an idiot. My eyes laid on the unconscious girl. She somehow seem familiar. Ugh, please don't let it be another family member. No offense to Randi. "Can you hear me? Breathe!" I said, frantically. I felt her pulse. She's still alive but needs to breathe. Water came out of her mouth as she coughed repeatedly. I breathed a breath of relief. She coughed and got up. "What happened?" She asked. "Your friend told me you was drowning so I guess I saved you." I told her. She rolled her eyes. "I'm guessing she left after." She said. I nodded. "True friends wouldn't do that, you know?" I said. She smiled and nodded. "I'm really tired of hanging with those guys. Thank you for saving me." She said softly. I chuckled and put my clothes back on. "No prob!" I said. "Are you leaving? I don't wanna ride home with them." She said. I shrugged. "Guess you could hang with me and my friends. We're on a school field trip here." I said. "Thanks." She said, smiling. I smiled nervously. "I'll have to make sure my principal's ok with it." I said. We laughed. "What's your name?" I asked. She smiled. "Blair." She told me. We laughed and left shore.

Belding nicely let Blair join us on the field trip and she'll go home with us. Our tents were finished and Jessie now shares one with her. Zack and I shared his tent. Thankfully, Belding never noticed. She hated being around that other crowd. They never even liked her. Nighttime was present and we gathered around the fire. Kelly, Jessie and I baked s'mores with hot chocolate. We laughed as we told silly stories. I smiled and cuddled on Zack's shoulder. He chuckled, rubbing my back comfortably. Randi cuddled with Kelly. Jessie and Slater did the same. Blair was being very sweet to everyone. "Mia, that was so brave!" Lisa said, referring to me saving Blair. I chuckled. "Thanks. You ok Blair?" I asked. She nodded. "Thanks! I would've never survived down there." She said.
Screech smiled. "Why don't we do a camp song? I'll sing rodeo!" He asked. Zack rolled his eyes. Blair was a bit confused. I laughed and pulled my guitar next to my bag. "Way ahead of ya." I said. They cheered. "Yay! Let's hear it M!" Randi practically shouted. Everyone clapped. I smirked. "Why don't you girls join me?" I asked. Their eyes widened. "Really?" Jessie asked. I nodded. They smiled and readied theirselves. "Can I join?" Blair asked. "Sure!" I said. I began strumming as we started singing.

(Mia's Lisa, Kelly's Lauren, Jessie's Katherine, Blair's Dani, Lisa's Amy. There's not enough for six so five)

Everyone applauded. Zack smiled. "Whoa! Alright!" He said. I laughed and put the guitar back in the case. Slater smiled. "Aye mama, you sing beautiful." He said. She looked at him in awe as his arm wrapped around her waist. Lisa yawned. "All this camping's making me tired." She said. Slater checked his wristwatch. "It's already 10pm. We should get to sleep." He said. Everyone returned to their tents. I dropped my s'more stick and got up. Zack followed behind. We changed to our pjs and got under the blankets. I yawned tiredly. He rubbed my hair. I smiled. "Night Zack." I whispered. He kissed my cheek. "Night babe." He whispered. His arm stayed wrapped around me as we fell asleep. Waking up at the crack of dawn is freaking crazy. Next to Zack felt like a thousand soft cuddles in you. We got dressed and packed our bags. Lisa watched Zack take down the tent and walked up to me. She smirked. "Am I witnessing what I thought I witnessed?" She asked. I was confused. "What do you mean?" I asked. She looked back at the tent then back at me. I playfully rolled my eyes and chuckled. "Honestly, it was his idea." I said. She laughed. "Duh, he's your boyfriend. I'm just making sure you were safe though." She said. I nodded. She smiled. "Good. You're not ready to have baby Zack Morris right now." She said, smirking. I laughed and wrapped my bag around my shoulder. "Cmon guys, the sooner you go home the sooner you'll come back for school tomorrow." Belding said. The school bus arrived. We got in the bus and sat on the seats we switched. I yawned again. Man, I can't wait to go home. I laid my head on Zack's shoulder. He played with my fingers and wrapped his arm around my neck. "Go ahead and sleep." He whispered. My eyes immediately closed.
