LiveLaughLovingEveryone2 here, I might just do Val's views for a bit to grasp her personality. I did get a bit into T themes toward the end, by not overtly so, Enjoy!

Val's POV:

I woke up and look over at the clock. 11:33 I definitely slept in. I look over to see if Parker was awake. He wasn't even in the room. I lay in bed for 6 minutes before getting up and making some coffee. Parker finally walks back in the room carrying food.

Me: Good morning

Parker: Hey

Me: How long have you been up?

Parker: 10ish, here breakfast or more like lunch at this point

Me: Thanks

We sat down in the little table in the corner. I ate. I realized that my hair probably looks ridiculous right now. After breakfast I plop my plate down on the desk and go to get ready. Parker decides to leave the room again. After my shower I hear a knock on the door, I assume that Parker just forgot his room key and wrap my tower around me to answer it. It's Tina.

Me: Hey

Tina: Sorry, but Jamie is just being beyond annoying, can I like hang out her for a bit?

Me: Ugh, sure

Tina: Thank you!

Tina just sits at the table and uses her phone while I continue to get ready. After I'm done I go back out.

Tina: Hey

Me: Hi

Tina: Sorry I didn't know you were still getting ready

Me: It's fine, so what did Jamie do

Tina: He just went through all of my stuff and interrogate me on all of it

Me: Eek

Tina: Yeah I know, he stayed up all night watching Die Hard movies, with the volume up, so It took me what seemed like forever to fall asleep

Me: I just passed out, I was so tired

Tina: I was looking at some touristy things to do on my phone, besides the Salt Flats

Me: Anything interesting?

Tina: Zip lining, Train Cemetery, sight seeing Tunupa volcano, Arbol de Piedra, Isla Incahuasi which looks like it has a lot of cactuses, Geiser Sol, Iglesia San Cristobal Lipez church, which apparently is usually closed, Plaza Arce, San Cristobal de Lipez, Necropolis museum, and lots of restaurants, I don't know if I even pronounced half of that right

Me: *laughs* I don't think I could do much better

Tina: I don't think I could bring myself to go zip lining

Me: I don't know, I think it sounds fun

Tina just stared at me like a crazy person. Parker then came in.

Parker: Hey, Tina, right

Tina: Yeah, Hi

Parker: There really isn't much in this hotel, I mean what hotel doesn't have a pool?!

Me: I know right

Parker: I did find out they have a "game room" which is essentially a pool table and foosball with two fancy chairs

Me: Better than nothing

Tina: Let me guess, someone has already monopolized it

Parker: Apparently the Danish students

Me: I'm not the best pool player ever anyway, I think I played with my dad eight times

Tina: Parker how do you feel about seeing a volcano

Parker: Why are you even here

Tina: Oh my parter Jamie was just going through my things and yelling, he thinks he can treat anyone like anything wants, I thought I could tolerate it, I don't think I'm that strong though, I signed up for a whole year of this, ein ganzes jahr, a whole year

Parker: Well, that sucks

Tina: Yeah, um, I guess it does

Parker: Why wouldn't you pick a better partner?

Tina: The way my school did it was there is 4 teams representing North, South, East and West Germany, At each school we competed separate and submitted our projects, there are two winners who are put together to form a team, Jamie just happened to be the one that one, Leben funktioniert nicht, wie sie wollte es manchmal, sie müssen nur damit umzugehen, That's what I'm doing

Parker: Lady, I don't speak any German

Tina: Hallo, wie geht es dir means Hello, how are you, it's one of the first phrases learned in any new language it seems

Parker: How do you speak such good English?

Tina: My sister is an exchange student over in America, I knew English before, but she helps me with American, there's a difference

Parker: Cool

Me: So It's already 1:30 does anyone want to do anything today or should I just get back in something more comfortable!?

Parker: Like what?

Tina: Here's a list, but I'm thinking Volcano

Parker: Val?

Me: Um anything really

We argue about what to do and around 1:47 we decide to go to The train cemetery, a place of well, I'm not quite sure what to expect. I don't know if we're even allowed to do that, but I couldn't find anything we couldn't. They said we could explore the area as tourists for the first week and get settled in. We go down to the restaurant/buffet for lunch. I take a table with people already sitting at it. Just momentarily until Parker and Tina get their food. There are two guys sitting there.

?&?:Hi

Me: Hey, what country are you from?

Jakob: Denmark, I'm Jakob and that's

Will: Will, How are you

Me: Good, You

Will: Great

Jakob: You are from America I'I guessing

Me: Yeah, how did you

Jakob: Over heard, Becky talks very loudly

Me:*Laughs* yeah

There really wasn't much to say to them. I have a hard time making small talk. So I waited in silence while waiting for Parker. I started to eat. It was pizza. Surprisingly, there are actually quite a few pizza places around here. The options seem like pricey, pizza, coffee, bars and that isn't a lot of options. I end up eating a piece before Parker sits next to me.

Parker: Hey

Me: Hey

Parker: What's up

Me: Nothing, why

Parker: That look says other wise

I didn't even know I had a "look" when I was annoyed or frustrated.

Me: I don't know, It kinda hit me, this is our home for the next year, it's especially cramping my sleep schedule and just my general since of anything, so I'm just trying to adjust, I'm fine though

Parker: Way worse than daylight savings time

Me: *laughs* yeah, excited to a train cemetery, I mean I've never been somewhere at night without someone in my family in a 20 yard radius

Parker: *Laughs* I know I haven't had that problem much, but how late at night

Me: 7:00 was my curfew

Parker: I didn't even have a curfew

Me: Even though it's just seeing graffitied trains on a tour which isn't wrong, it's just amazing to have any freedom, it makes the though of seeing old trains fun

Becky and Aimee walked Into the room. Becky came and sat next to us.

Becky: Hi, So remember curfew is 11:30 you have to notify us of where you're going, and what time you plan to be back, that way we don't have to worry so much, bring your cell phones at all times, don't be afraid to call me or Aimee, Here are our numbers, program them Into your phone now

Jakob: What's you last name?

Becky: Mine is Fernández and Aimee's is Fitzpatrick

Jakob: Tak!

Becky: Here are your teachers lists too you have 7 teachers, but while your here you'll have 2 school administrators, there like your principal while your here, respect them, Here are the 9 numbers you b Ed to program into your phone, their email addresses too, don't worry we already have your email addresses!

Will: What exactly are you interning for

Becky: I'm working toward my Bachelors in Science in Human Services in Youth and Family Administration, So is Aimee, We we're searching for places where we could get experience and this seemed perfect, technically it's some STEM subject association with some long name on the back of the textbooks, you'll receive them on your first day

Tina: Will we get any breaks from classes during the year?

Becky: Yes you will be emailed and receive a physical copy of the schedule, I believe you will get a 3 day break next month in late July, you get weekends off too like normally, You start your first day of school on the 19th, you get holidays off you celebrate too, or ones your classmates celebrate, we asked a bunch of questions you had to fill out in order for us to follow the scheduling laws of your countries, I have to type something up on my computer, call me if you need me immediately, Kay

Becky walked away. I actually forgot Tina was sitting with us. When she asked a question it actually shocked me a bit.

Will: Hey can we tag along for your train tour thing

Me: Why?

Will: Why would I want to spend money when I can just third wheel with some other people

Me: Parker, Tina?

Tina: I'm totally fine with it

Parker: Um sure, why not

To be honest no one really cared if Will tagged along. It's best just to be nice to people, we have to live with these people for a year. It would be the intelligent option to just be nice to Will, it's not like he's being jerky about it. Just a freeloader. I reality we weren't getting one of those fancy tours, the trains are outside. Can admire them from as far as free looks.

Will: So what time you leaving?

Parker: 7:30ish we plan to be there by 8:00 and be there till 9:00 or close

Me: Then maybe get something at one of those cafés

Tina: Then be back by 10:15-10:40 depends really

Will: Thanks

Will and Jakob walked over to a table with two girls. One of the girls had blonde hair with hot pink tips. She had her hair in a Ariana Grande style ponytail. The other girl was the only person I saw here wearing glasses. She black hair in a messy sock bun. It was now 3:56 so I back to the room. I log on my computer to email Becky about our whereabouts. I get this as a reply.

Becky's Email: Cool, I'm glad your having fun and trying to talk to people outside of your clique, we expect you to be responsible about this and be truthful ~Rebecca Estella Fernández

In reality who can spend more that 30 minutes looking at rusty graffitied trains. We were probably spend most of it talking. Probably sitting in one of the hopefully not to expensive cafés. I go on sites to see the area and try to map out a route. It'll take 10 minutes to get over there. That's by bus and walking. I seems scary and it is. They don't want us to go out there alone. They even made my parents sign a contract that If I was injured, killed, ran or other situations they couldn't sue. Which sounds scary. My mom even hired a lawyer to go over the whole contract. I binged watched The Speed on the TV with Parker until 7:20. I re-brushed my hair and grabbed my clutch.

Me: Ready to leave

Parker: Yeah, just waiting on you

Me: *shoves his shoulder a bit* You're the only one people are waiting on

We walked out of the room to see Will and Tina and, wait, one of those girls Will and Jakob were talking to.

Will: I invited Claire along

Claire: Salut, Prêt à partir?

Tina: Apparently she only speaks French

Parker: Comment êtes-vous Claire ? Désolé, je ne sais pas si vous compris du contexte, mais nous n'étions pas conscients que vous veniez, vous êtes les bienvenus à accrocher avec nous, mais sachez juste que nous allons parler la plupart du temps anglaise (How are you Claire? Sorry, I do not know if you understood the context, but we were not aware that you were coming, you are welcome to hang with us, but just know that we will talk mostly English-translation depending on context it could be interpreted as whether you come)

Me: Parker I didn't know you spoke French

Parker: My mother made us speak it at home for awhile

Tina: Cool

Claire: J'ai rien d'autre à faire ce soir, mon meilleur ami, est avec Jakob, il sera intéressant d'entendre parler plus tard ce soir! (I have nothing else to do tonight, my best friend, is with Jakob, it will be interesting to hear about later tonight!)

Parker: Okay, alors, nous devrions laisser ou nous allons manquer le bus (Okay, Then, we should leave or we'll miss the bus)

Me: I don't speak French

Parker: We are going to miss the bus if we don't freaking hurry up!

Tina: Okay, Eek

We walked out of the hotel. We got to the stop and waited for not even a minute before the bus came.

Will: Whew, Barley made it

Parker: Yeah, thanks, couldn't see that

Tina: It's fine

Parker: You couldn't of at least told us your were going to invite someone else?

Will: I thought it would be easier to just show up with her

Parker: She barely has idea of what's going on!

Me: GUYS! Yes there is a French girl who doesn't understand a word he speak, we almost missed a bus, but hey there's no reason to start arguing, it's already awkward

Tina: Yeah!

The bus arrived in front of the train cemetery. The gift-shopping-tourist-trap build was closed for renovations. We walked pass it and sit up against the building.

Tina: I'm already kinda bored

Parker: Same

Me: Know anything that'll make this more interesting

Claire: Je m'ennuie au-delà dès maintenant (I am beyond bored right now)

Will: Okay, What is the most interesting thing to happen to you since you arrived here

Tina: Freedom, Finally

Me: Progressions of my relationships with other humans

Tina: What the heck does that even mean

Me: I just worded that weirdly, It means exactly that

Tina: Whatever, You Will

Will: Figuring out how to work the ancient coffee machine

Parker: Finally getting some privacy for once, the house I lived at had 7 to 9 people depending on who was there at the moment, Claire, Ce qui est une chose excitante qui s'est passé depuis que vous êtes arrivé ici? (What is an exciting thing that's happened since you got here?)

Claire: Arriver à faire des choses sans être à l'abri du monde, je n'ai pas peur d'échouer! (Get to do things without being protected/immune from the world, I'm not afraid to fail!)

Parker, Will and Claire went to get Selfies with the ancient trains while me and Tina stayed behind.

Tina: Be careful, I had that with a guy, his name was Alex, I was craving something, I gave in the minute I have sex and I am no longer a virgin he leaves, Ha, I still wonder what I was so desperate for, Maybe love without the shelter

Me: You think Parker would do an F and dump

Tina: Of course not! You seem so handmade for each other, just be careful though, Love hurts when it dies in one and lives in the other

Me: Um, Okay, Thanks Tina

They started walking back.

Will: We had to take, what seemed to be 100 selfies before this piece of perfection *shoves phone in me and Tina's face*

Tina: Val, want to a self with the trains

Me: Fine, but just a few

Me and Tina walked over and took 3 before we got one that was good enough. We walked back over and sat with everyone else.

Claire: *Points to watch* Hé! Il est déjà neuf!

Parker: Oh yeah it is nine, wanna go to that café down the street?

Me: Well that's plan isn't it

Will: *grunts getting up* okay we can go

Tina: Whoo, my parents would not approve of coffee after 4

Parker: Eek, how could you live like that?

Tina: When's there are a ton of rules it's all you know really

We walked to the Café and we order cappuccino's.

Will: I can't believe I'm sipping a cappuccino with a bunch of nerd while my best friend scored a French girl

Tina: You don't want that, It'll be all weird between Jakob and Sage, right

Will: Yeah

Me: Claire doesn't even have any idea what we're talking about

Parker: She'll probably some words or some language at some point

Me: Good point

Will: Yeah, Ugh, It is, and I'm a nerd too

Parker: Will, what's your favorite comic book?

Will: Um, It's impossible to pick one

Parker: I know right

Tina: It's 10:20, I'm going to leave, I don't want to get in trouble with Becky

Me: Wow, yeah I guess we should go

We walked out of the Café and we started to walk to the end of the street. Me and Parker started to gaze into each other's eyes, We shared a short kiss while walking and Claire looked back then rolled her eyes. We got on the bus and got back to the hotel at 10:32 within the dead line. We went to our room and got ready to sleep. I feel asleep pretty quickly.

Okay so this Chapter was kinda long. I wasn't the happiest with some parts. I plan on introducing the other students later too though. I wanted to introduce some other characters because it would be unrealistic if Parker and Val talked exclusively to each other. Whether you like Tina, Claire or Will you have to admit the story would be weird without them. I did skid upon some of the T topics. These are intelligent kids, they probably aren't swearing for absolutely no reason. Also when are they going to add Val as a character?!
