Shane helped Mitchie load the last her bags in the car. Mitchie had only filled 2 bags with all of the things she needed. Her songbook was tucked safely in the bottom of the green one. Shane and Mitchie finally hopped in the back. Caitlyn was sitting in the front and Nate was driving, so Mitchie and Shane both sat in the middle back seat. Around fifteen minutes into the drive Shane already began to become fidgety.
"Impatient are we?" Asked Mitchie.
"Gah, I hate road trips in normal cars. I'm so used to the tour bus."
"Well we're not in a car, we're in a van." Mitchie replied like a little kid.
Shane smiled as if he just remembered something. "Mitchie, close your eyes and lean forward."
Mitchie scanned Shane's face. "Why?"
"Please?"
Mitchie sighed "Okay" She did as Shane told. There was a click and a thunk.
"Okay, now lean back." Mitchie did so, but instead of her back meeting the back of the seat, she kept falling. Instinctively Mitchie snapped her eyes open and flailed her arms to catch something, but finding nothing.
"Oof" Mitchie fell back against something soft. Shane laughed beside her. Mitchie looked around. The back of the middle seat appeared to be laid flat and connected to the back seat's seat part, making it sort of like a bed. Shane had already clicked of Mitchie's seatbelt.
"Whoa, cool" Mitchie said.
"Yeah, when you said van, I remembered that the seats did this."
"Shouldn't we be wearing seatbelts or something?" Mitchie asked.
"Nah, Nate is a good driver. Right Nate?" Shane called up to the front of the vehicle.
"Don't have sex in my van!" Nate called back. Shane rolled his eyes and Mitchie laughed.
"Oh yeah!" Shane said. He stuck his arm under the bed/seat and pulled out some pillows. "Now we can go to sleep. Or stay awake." Shane said with a smile.
Mitchie rolled her eyes. "I'm tired. Sleep sounds good." Shane pouted for a minute, and then gave up. Mitchie leaned her head against Shane's chest and Shane wrapped his arms around Mitchie. They both fell asleep within' minutes.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Aww... isn't that cute?" Caitlyn said, looking at Mitchie and Shane sleep. Nate came beside her with a full bucket of water.
"Would you like to do the honors?" Nate asked Caitlyn gesturing toward the water.
"Definitely." And with that Caitlyn poured the bucket on Shane and Mitchie's heads.
Mitchie screamed and woke with a start, while Shane sighed and opened one eye.
"You know, there is other effective ways of waking me Nate, like CALLING MY NAME?" Shane yelled at Nate.
"Hey, Caitlyn poured the bucket"
"But it was your idea, no doubt?"
Nate sighed "Guilty as charged" He said putting his hands in the air.
Shane got out of the van and started chasing Nate. Mitchie hugged her arm to her chest and shivered.
"Thanks Caitlyn, just the way I want to wake up, wet and cold." Mitchie said sarcastically. Mitchie then hopped out of the van. She watched Shane chase Nate before shaking her head and sighing and walking to the back of the van to get her bags. She opened the back and tried to drag one of her heavy bags out.
"Need some help with that?" A half familiar voice said. Mitchie turned around and saw Jason standing behind her.
"Oh, um, Jason, why are you here so early?" Mitchie asked.
"Peggy demanded that she should drive, so I let her, though I don't know why. Well let's just say Peggy doesn't like to drive slowly. Actually anywhere within' the speed limit is a challenge for her." Mitchie laughed. That's SO Peggy.
Jason helped Mitchie get the bags out of the van. It took Nate and Shane three times running past them to stop and notice Jason. They both had identical looks of confusion on their faces. Jason explained about Peggy's crazy driving, except in more detail.
"Where is Peggy anyway?" Mitchie asked as Jason finished explaining.
"Um, bathroom I think.... wait there she is." Said Jason. Peggy walked over to the four of them.
"Whoa, big bus! You know what would be cool? If we gave the driver a break and I drove for a bit." Peggy suggested.
"No!!!" The three boys answered in at the same time. Peggy raised an eyebrow, then shrugged her shoulders and walked over to Caitlyn.
Mitchie turned around. She hadn't noticed the bus before, which was odd because the bus was big. Huge really.
Shane came up behind Mitchie wrapping his arms around her waist and placing his head on her shoulder.
"Would you like to explore?" He whispered in her ear.
"Yes!" Mitchie replied excitedly.
Mitchie eagerly raced up the stairs into the bus. As soon as she got in, to her right were three doors along the wall. Forward was a built in couch. To her left was a long counter containing kitchen supplies and appliances and a fridge across from that. The fridge was beside a chair which was beside the couch. A T.V. was above the counters along with a microwave. There was also a door at the end of the hallway.
Mitchie looked around marveling as Shane walked up the stairs behind her.
"That's Jason's room a bathroom and Nate's room." Said Shane pointing at the three doors. "They have two double beds in them each. Well the bedrooms, not the bathroom".
"No really?" Mitchie said sarcastically.
"Hey, don't get snippy." Said Shane playfully. Mitchie smiled and stuck out her tongue. "Oh now I'm gonna get you!"
"You can try!" Mitchie said as she turned to run towards the door at the end of the hallway. Shane followed quickly behind her. Mitchie got to the door at the end and opened it, but what she saw inside made her stop dead in her tracks and when Shane came running behind her he bumped in to her causing her and Shane to both fall over. Shane, not wanting to fall on top of Mitchie pushed his arms out so that he was hovering over top of Mitchie in a push-up position.
"Whoops, sorry Mitch. You okay?" Shane apologized.
"Ya I'm fine" Said Mitchie turning over so their faces were only inches away. Mitchie bit her lip when she noticed how close they were.
"You know, I rather like this position." Shane said getting playful again now that he knew Mitchie was okay.
Mitchie giggled but didn't say anything. She was to busy marveling how long he could stay in this position. Not being able to hold herself back she reached up touched his large muscles running her hand along them and tracing the patterns. It was that moment Nate and Caitlyn chose to walk in.
"Hey, lazy heads come help us with the ba.... Oh look Caitlyn, looks like we might be interrupting something." Nate said sort of disgusted, sort of enjoying it.
By that time Shane and Mitchie had already scrambled to their feet. Mitchie had an awkward look on her face while Shane, kind of mad at Nate for interrupting, was pouting and glaring at Nate.
"Ew." Was all that Caitlyn had to say before she dropped the bags she had in her hands and walked out to get some more. Nate, Mitchie and Shane followed behind.
OMG I am sooooo sorry about not updating for so long. I was kind of stumped about what to do in the car ride. Sorry it's short, but it's got a lot in it. RBS! (Really Big Smile!)
