I had just finished my fried rice when a knock came from the door. Gabe opened it and regarded the person outside for less than a second before turning to me, an eyebrow raised. I quickly stood up and dumped my dishes in the sink for someone else to wash, jamming a beanie on my head and leaping into Vic's arms.

'Hi there,' I said, nuzzling my face into my neck as he held me off the ground. Gabe made an odd noise at us and shut the door. I wrapped my legs around Vic, and kissed him on the nose, before he pulled a face and backed me up onto the side of the bus so that I had more support and could help him hold my weight.

'That's better,' he said softly, 'it's good to see you too, Kells.' He kissed my lips, letting me slide my way down the bus until I was sitting on the dusty floor. He helped me up and we went for a walk, enjoying the sights of the venue.

'When's your curfew?' Vic asked, swinging our intertwined hands.

'Two, I think. Yours?'

'Whenever the party stops.'

'So, around four?' Vic laughed gently, his low voice making me shiver.

'You could say that. And I have the perfect way to spend that time.' He smirked up at me, letting go of my hand briefly and slapping my butt.

'No,' I said, taking his hand back in mine, 'bad Vic.'

'I thought you liked bad boys, Kell.' He said, pouting, making the few words and expression painfully seductive.

'When did I say that?' I asked, pressing him up on the side of a building. It was quite nice, the bricks smooth and weathered so that it wouldn't catch at his clothing and potentially rip it off - not that I would mind. We started kissing, and he bit my bottom lip gently, saying,

'You never did.' He inserted his tongue back into my mouth and we kissed a bit more, Vic being squished even more between a rock and a hard place as our kisses became deeper.
'Well then,' I said, pulling away and gasping for air, 'here's me saying I like bad boys, and you, Vic, have been very, very naughty.'

I returned to the bus just before my curfew, after a quick visit to the party that was being thrown a few buses over with Vic. I left him there with Tony, who had decided on staying sober tonight.

'How was your time with Vic?' Gabe asked politely as I shut the bus door. They were watching some old rerun on television, trying unsuccessfully to drown out the noise of the bass. I opened my mouth to speak and Gabe quickly jumped in with, 'actually nevermind. It was probably good. No more details needed.' I laughed and changed into my pajamas, jumping into my bunk and booting up my laptop.

While it was doing so, I made a few cups of coffee and put them in thermos flasks, taking them back to my bunk and opening up my university course. I sighed and plugged in my earphones and grabbed a notebook and pen, sipping my coffee and switching on the nightlight I had stuck to the wall so that I didn't disturb anyone. The nightlight was a bargain, it cost me three dollars from one of those marked-down bins and worked perfectly fine. It gave off a blue-tinted light and sometimes flickered if it had been on too long, but besides that it was great. Especially since it had been fifteen dollars, making it a worthwhile investment.

Three hours later and Justin opened the curtain to my bunk, his eyes halp open. Come to think of it, so were mine. I was catching up on lectures I had missed and simultaneously conversing with my professor in the handy pop-up chat box that had appeared, seemingly, out of nowhere.

'Kellin, get some sleep.' Justin mumbled, climbing into the bunk and shutting my laptop on me.

'Hey!' I said, blinking furiously. 'It was just getting interesting.'

'Sure, sure.' Justin yawned, clambering under the covers and yanking my earbuds out and slapping his hand against the nightlight to turn it off. He snuggled into my chest and wrapped an arm around my waist before promptly falling asleep.

'Justin.' I said, prodding him in the side. 'Justin! Get out, this isn't your bunk.'

'Is now,' was the sleepy replied. I sighed and snuggled down deeper into the blankets, my head coming in contact with the pillow. I didn't remember a thing which happened afterwards.

'Kellin! Get up!' I felt a hand shaking my shoulder.

'Hey! Out, now. We have to play in a few hours.' Another voice joined in, and I groaned, rubbing my eyes and staring into Justin's piercing light blue ones.

'Up,' he said, and I identified him as the first voice. Jesse was standing behind him, a hand on his hip.

'Hurry up, both of you!' I pushed Justin out of my bunk, hearing a satisfying thud as he hit the ground and quickly followed him as Jesse grabbed the tops of my arms and deposited me on the ground.
