We Celebrate the way the night hides scars
Payback!
When I woke up it was really dark. I pulled my IPod out of my bra and checked the time. It was 9:30 am, I smiled remembering where I was. I sat up in the bunk and ran my fingers through my long wavy brown hair, attempting to make it look decent. Let’s just say I failed, epically. after sitting in darkness for a minute, trying to fully wake up, i leaned over and opened the curtain just a little bit to look out. I looked out and to see a shirtless, taller guy with spiky black hair; i'm pretty sure it was Jaime. He had his back to me but then started to turn around. i panicked, i didn't want him to see me! So I quickly closed the curtain, regretting closing it so fast. It made a very loud noise that I’m sure he heard, after a few moments the curtain slowly opening. i had no idea what to do, Oh my gosh he’s opening the curtain. What do I do?!?!?! i was panicking so I just laid down, still and quiet until it was shut.
~Jaime’s P.O.V~
I was changing my shirt and turned to go to the lounge area when I heard the curtain to mike’s bunk close, but mike is on the couch? I slowly started opening the curtain; there was a girl… in mike’s bed… I stood and stared in confusion for a few moments before shutting the curtain and walked over to mike, who was watching TV.
“Mike.”
“Yeah, man?”
“Why is there a girl in your bed?”
“Oh, Emily? She was lost last night, I let her borrow my phone and then her ride skipped out on her, and now she’s going to Reno with us.” He was smiling
“Yeah sure, ‘lost’. “ I winked and sat down
“Yeah, really that’s what happened.”
“Ok, well how old is she?”
“I believe she said 17?”
“Oh, well that’s cool” she looked too young to be 17. Hmm, maybe she looks older when she’s awake. I wonder what she’s like, maybe she’s sweet and caring, but also what if she’s snotty and rude. I really hope she has a sense of humor. If she does I think we’ll get along great. But who knows, we’ll just have to wait and see.
~Emily’s P.O.V~
I heard Jaime walk off “mike,”
“Yeah man?”
“Why is there a girl in your bed?” I stopped paying attention after that because I was laughing at Jaime’s tone. I waited about 20 minutes before opening the curtain and getting out of the bunk.
When I got out I looked to see that the curtain separating the bunks from the lounge of the bus were closed. I took the opportunity to get changed; I don’t really want to meet Jaime while wearing mike’s pajamas. He’d probably get the wrong idea, and we wouldn’t want that now would we? I grabbed my clothes from under mikes bunk and went to the bathroom, Tony was still passed out in his bunk and so was Vic. I quickly changed my pants, I decided to keep the shirt on because I kinda liked it. I used some mouthwash that was in there, and a brush. Sadly there was no straightener, that’s surprising. I folded everything and made mike’s bunk and set the clothes on it before going to the lounge of the bus.
I walked out to see mike and Jaime eating cereal and watching TV. They didn’t seem to notice that I was there, they were engrossed in the TV. So I just stood there for what seemed forever. I hope it isn’t awkward today, Tony I guess is the only one who doesn’t know I’m here. I hope he doesn’t mind. I got tired of just standing there, so I decided to say something.
“Hey guys!” I yelled
I scared Jaime which caused him to drop his cereal in his lap, milk going everywhere. Mike was laughing so hard he started crying, I couldn’t help but laugh too. (Great first impression huh?)
“Shit! And I just changed too!” Jaime looked bummed and looked up at me, “Why?”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.” I smiled weakly
“Well, you made one heck of a first impression.” He laughed while flicking cereal and milk off of his hands. I stood in place not knowing what to do with myself, “Do you need help cleaning it up, or?”
“No, I think I got it.” He stood up and took his bowl to the sink, rinsing what was left of the cereal out of the bowl
“Oh, okay.” I said still standing in place. I looked down at my feet as I stood there.
Jaime turned around and looked at me, “Your turn.” He gave me an evil grin.
“What?” I asked confused
Mike looked at me and started laughing, “Oh shit little girl, you better run!” I figured they were just kidding so I stood there. Oh boy was I wrong.
Jaime ran at me, I dodged him and took off running towards the door. “I didn’t mean to!” I screamed as I ran off the bus and into the parking lot, Jaime following behind me.
“I don’t care! I’m still gonna get you back!”
I ran around the bus thinking that I had lost him. I looked back to see if he was behind me and like I thought, he wasn’t. I started laughing and kept running, “HAHA! I beat you!” I yelled out, hoping that he could here me. Since I had lost him, I ran to the door of the bus and opened it, as I started walking up the stairs I felt Jaime, or what I hope is Jaime grab me from behind and picked me up flinging me over his shoulder as I was screaming. I was surprised that Tony and Vic didn’t wake up. Jaime took me into the bathroom throwing me into the shower and turned on the cold water getting me soaked. I squealed at how cold it was. I moved out of the water towards the back of the shower and glared at him. He just kept laughing.
“Payback time, Preciado.” I pulled him in the shower and he got completely soaked, and he wasn’t too happy about it. I ran out of the bathroom slamming the door, completely oblivious that he was following me. After I slammed the door I heard a thud.
~Jaime’s P.O.V~
I stood there laughing at her, she continued to glare at me. “Payback time, Preciado.” I was confused, and then she pulled me in. holy shit the water was cold! She ran out and I was right behind her, then, BAM! There was a door in my face. I stood in the bathroom holding my head for a minute. I opened the door and saw Emily walking back towards mike laughing.
I went and turned off the water and started walking back to the lounge, Emily had her back towards me so I took the opportunity and snuck up behind her, grabbing her sides and yelling which made her jump and scream. Mike was laughing so hard he fell off the couch holding his stomach. Tony and Vic came out rubbing their eyes. “Who’s on their period and screamed like that?” Tony said still trying to wake up.

Notes
okay, i hope you like this so far! and about the drama for her being there, it's comin. don't worry. haha and i know the chapters are pretty short right now, but that's just how i had already written it. and they are getting longer, i promise!I'm going through and editing stuff (taking out stuff and also adding ALOT. haha)
And thanks for the feedback guys! (: tbh it's more than i thought it would be.. :p
oh and, this is like the only chapter that has POV changes except for one other. when i was writing it, i just figured that it would start getting confusing (and kinda annoying) so stopped. (: so yeah.. no more POV changing except for one more time. (:
