The week went by fast. It was already Tuesday. I had all my stuff packed for the trip, we would be staying there for 3 days and 2 nights. They said we would be in a cabin with bunkbeds and everything. They would even serve us food. We were allowed to bring our phones and anything else we needed.

I was in the bus and sat with Dominique. The girls and boys were seperated, all the girls in one bus while all the boys were in the other bus. I looked at Dominique and her beautiful dark brown skin tone. Her hair was up in those tiny braids that African American girls wear. I always loved that hairstyle.

"Who are you going to bunk with?" Dominique asked as she had her earbuds in.

I took my face out of my book and loked at her.

"Hmm. I actually don't know. Who are you going to bunk with?" I asked.

"I don't know, I was wondering if you would like to bunk with me actually." She said.

"Oh yes! I would love to! But I have to be on the bottom, Derek said he would try to cuddle with me. And I dont want to break the bunk bed by sleeping ontop." I smiled a her.

She smiled too.

"I understand." she said and we laughed a little.

"I have a question." I said. "Where exactly are we going to in New York?"

She first thought for a little and then answered me. "Manhattan."

I've never been to Manhattan, so I was so excited!

"We're going to see things like the African Burial Gourd, the Bell Laboratories Building, the Central Synagoguge, Central Park, and Will Marion Cook House. But we're going to see more then that!" She looked like she was excited too.

We stopped talking because the bus stopped at Tim Hortons to get food. One by one, we all got out of the bus and ate. I also saw Derek and ended up sitting next to him, Ethan, Dominque, Violet, Caroline, and Derek's other friends.

They all were nice and we had some time to talk and stuff. Derek and I sat across from each other in the sitting booth. Caroline and Ethan were also sitting across from each other, while at the end it was Dominique, Violet, and two of Derek's other friends named Josh and Noah.

When everyone was done eating, our whole grade, we went back on the busses and I said "Goodbye" to Derek and his friends.

Time to hit the road.

We still had about 9 more hours to reach the cabin place in Manhattan. It was already 1:00 in the morning. We started driving at 4:00pm. We were stuck in traffic almost everytime we went on the highway. It was so annoying so I decided to fall asleep.

"NOO. NOO." Said a voice that was crying.

It sounded like a girl.

I looked into the pitch black room to see who it was. I almost fell when I tried to see who it was.

It was as cold as Antarctica in here. I shivered and tugged at my leather coat. I kept walking until I heard the voice even more clearly.

I went inside. It was me. It was me crying, blood all over the floor. Me crying there on the floor while all the blood drips from any area that reveals my skin. I still had a shirt and pants, but they were shorts and a T-shirt.

Then I saw a candle lit in the room, it was all the way in the corner of the room.

"Please, NO!!!!! Please, please don't!!" The me on the floor yelled.
