Donald POV

   Why did she get so angry? Did she actually think she could talk to the Bellas and we'd be okay with it?
   Vieve hadn't returned to the room that night, nor the next, nor the night after that. Bumper said that his 'contact' in the Bellas said that she's staying with them. He also said that she texted Greg and Greg knew that she was staying with them.
   Greg won't talk to me. He said I was too harsh and rude and then he ran after Vieve. Unicycle followed him, glaring at me, probably for upsetting Greg.
She didn't come back before the next competition. I was driving the bus, only half paying attention. Bumper yelled at me to pull over so he could 'sabotage' the Bellas and that's when I saw her.
     She was walking out of the gas station, laughing with the others. She saw us too and froze. The second the burrito hit Fat Amy, Bumper yelled at me to drive away, but I still saw Vieve's horrified look and her run to help her. Shame started to build in my stomach. I felt sick.
   Only Bumper seemed happy about what had happened. Everyone else seemed shocked and disappointed about what he did. The joking mood from earlier was gone and it was silent in the bus.
"Yeah, we can give a ride," Greg said, breaking the silence. I couldn't see, but I think everyone turned to him. "The Bellas bus ran out of gas and they need a lift."
"No. They should have filled up at the gas station," Bumper said immediately.
"You threw a burrito at them," Greg snapped. "Donald, turn around."
"Donald, don't," Bumper ordered. I pulled off the side of the road and waited for them to finish arguing.
"Bumper, wouldn't it be so nice to beat them in person rather than beat them because they're not there." I finally asked.
That got his attention. He nodded and I headed back to where Greg said the Bellas were.
It was kinda sad to see our rivals getting on our bus, but I loved the grateful look Vieve gave me when she got on. She still didn't say anything to me, and chose to sit by Greg instead of up by me though.
   This very weird, kinda cute, very quiet girl sat right behind me. I think we talked, but I wasn't paying attention. Greg was a little too close to Vieve and I think Unicycle agreed, based off the looks he kept giving me.
We somehow made it to the competition without Bumper and the Bellas killing each other and without me getting into an accident from not paying attention to the road.

Just a quick little update on Donald's thoughts before the next chapter. I'm not sure if the next chapter will be Vieve's POV again or we'll get a glimpse into what the competition is like from Donald's eyes.

Quick question: do you think Donald had the right to get mad last chapter or do you think he was overreacting?

Thank you for reading! I love all of you (awesome nerds).
