Human Kid (II)

19.

Suzanne entered the yellow bus that pulled up at the bus-stop. She got a seat by the window side and looked out at the scenery as the bus drove by.

Believe it or not, it was Ryan's birthday and they had some things left to do but Alex had sent them all a text about a mission in a certain location.

Suzanne sighed again.

Andrew had told she, Ethan and Ashley to bring their bagpacks along with their party dresses and work clothes in it as they were coming so right after the mission it would be easy to head to Potter's field and also change.

Already as it was the Squad 15 and Jamie were already at the venue, spicing things up.

Shane and his football buddies were also helping out in exchange for some treats to have in their practice the next day.

Andrew's mum and Kevin were also there to organize things.

Kevin had agreed to be the DJ.

At first it was no easy task as he labelled a party as trival and uninteresting but when he learnt Ethan was also vying for the post of being a DJ he accepted without anymore reluctance.

Ethan wasn't happy about Kevin being the DJ as he knew every chance Kevin got, he'd rub it in his face.

Charles also got more of his friends that formed a local rock band to perform at Ryan's party that was scheduled for one o'clock that afternoon.

Just then the bus stopped at another stop.

Justin entered.

He sighted Suzanne from far off, looking out the window.

He grinned and walked over to her and tapped her shoulder.

"Hey, mind if I seat here?"

Suzanne turned to look, sure enough it was Justin.

She laughed when she remembered those were the exact words he said when they first met.

"Sure," she nodded and he sat down beside her just as the bus started off again.

"Where are you off to Suzanne?" Justin asked with a smile.

Her mouth turned downwards. "We have a mission and we're all supposed to meet at Freetown with our LIN," she informed him.

He chuckled and pulled her cheeks slightly, "Cheer up then. You're in luck. I'm also headed to Freetown."

Suzanne grinned. "Really, what for?"

Justin relaxed back on his seat and glanced at her.

"I'm supposed to meet up with someone, my elder brother actually," he said simply.

"Really?" Suzanne's eyes went wide. "You never told me you had an elder brother!"

She nudged him playfully and he laughed.

"You never asked," he grinned in reply.

"One of these days I'll come visit you," Suzanne said and smiled.

"Really?" Justin chuckled. "I'd really love that. My mum would really love to meet you. My dad's always out on a business trip so he might not be around. But we videochat a lot."

"That's really cool," Suzanne grinned.

Justin smiled again as he looked at her.

"Yeah," he said and reached out to her hair clip.

"And I think you'd be way cuter with your hair down," he said as he yanked off the clip and helped her smoothen her hair down.

"Huh?" Suzanne looked up at her hair and tried to touch it.
