As They Piled In The Truck It Was Kinda Cramped. "Hey,It's Obvious That Not All 5 Of Us Will Fit In The Backseat" Sam Said "So We'll Have To Double Up"
"Double Up?" Matthew Asked
"Yeah. Sit On Each Others Laps" Sam Explained
"Oh I Ain't Doing That" Travis Exclaimed
"Yeah,You Do Like Kinda Tiny. So You'll Sit On One Of Their Laps"
"What About Me?" Blaine Asked
"You Can Sit On My Lap" Sam Smiled
"Wait,Why Can't You Sit On My Lap?"
"Because I Don't Need A Boner Digging Into My Butt" Sam Grinned
Blaine Smacked Him "Shut Up!"
"Come On Lets Go,Lets Go" Jake Hurried
On The Drive Back To Lima,Ohio Ryder Grabbed Jake's Hand Which Was On The Gear Shift. Jake Looked Over And Smiled.
"Oh Why Don't You 2 Get A Room" Sam Teased From The Backseat. Making Ryder Laugh
"I'm Travis By The Way" He Called From The Backseat To Ryder
"Hey. I'm Ryder"
"Oh So I've Heard. This Guy.." He Pointed To Jake "Stopped At Nothing To Find You"
"You Sucking Up,Man?" Jake Asked
"Dude, You Busted Ryder Outta Juvie And Your Still Being A Dick To Me?" Travis Asked But Didn't Really Mean It As A Question
"Just Ignore Him" Matthew Told Jake From The Backseat "He Has A Tendense To Be Totally Annoying"
Travis Shoved Matthew "I Am Not!"
Jordan Sighed "Welcome To My Life In Our Cabin"
"So Did You All Just Become Friends Since You Shared A Cabin?" Blaine Asked
"Well I Was Pretty Much Shy When I Got Their. They Could Tell That So They Kinda Just Made Me Feel Like I Wasn't Alone In That Hell Hole" Travis Admitted
"Yeah And We Have Regretted It Ever Since" Matthew Joked
"Haha. You Always With The Jokes" Travis Shot Back Sarcastically
"Okay It Sounds Like We Got Another Couple In The Backseat" Ryder Smiled Looking Back Matthew And Travis
"Us?" Travis Asked Then Looked At Matthew "Nah, We're Just Friends"
"Doesn't It Always Start Out That Way Though?" Ryder Replied Looking Back At Jake
"Am I Too Heavy?" Blaine Asked Sam
"No,You're Fine. Although My Keys Are Digging Into My Thigh" Sam Replied Then Stuck His Hand In His Right Pocket To Adjust Them
"Well If You'd Like I Could Move?" Blaine Suggested But Sam Just Shook His Head "Nah"
Once They Reached A Town Jake Asked The Boot Campers Where They Wanted Him To Drive Them. Matthew Asked If He Could Use Someone's Cell Phone And Blaine Handed Him His. After His Call He Said That His Sister Lived A Few Miles Down The Road And She Had Said He And His Friends Could Crash There As Long As Possible.
"Hey Why Don't We Coutinue To Listen To This CD You Guys Made" Ryder Said Holding Up The 'Saving Ryder Mix' And Smiling
"That Was My Idea" Blaine Admitted
"Oh Yeah? Sam You Didn't Have Any Songs Added On Here?" Ryder Teased
"Wwwweeeelllll,Maybe Like 1 or 2" He Smirked
"Alright Come On,Turn That Shit On!" Travis Said
Once The Music Started They Sang Along,Being Goofy,Having A Great Time As If They Had All Been Friends For Years. It Was Nice
'Pick me up
And throw me down
Pick me up
And throw me down
Pick me up
And throw me
Make me
Ah, ah, ah, ah
You make me wanna
Ou ah, nah-nah-nah
La-la-la, ay-oh
Ou ah, nah-nah-nah
La-la-la'
They Drove Down Matthew's Sisters Street.
"What's Her House Number Again?" Jake Asked While Looking Out His Window
"13. It's A Red Brick Building" Matthew Replied
"6,8,10...Ah Here We Are" Ryder Exclaimed
They Pulled Up And Matthew's Sister Was Sitting On The Front Steps Smoking A Cigarette. "Hey Baby!" She Called Out Throwing Her Arms Up Excitedly
"As You Can See She Loves Me...She's Also Crazy" He Joked As He Was Getting Out Of The Truck
"Thank You Guys For The Ride" Jordan Said
"Bye Guys. Thank You Jake" Travis Said Standing Beside The Drivers Window. Jake Didn't Reply "Ya Still Hate Me Huh?" He Smiled Then Turned And Walked Up The Sidewalk.
Sam,Blaine And Ryder Waved Goodbye As Jake Drove Away.
They Drove A Few More Hours Then Jake Said "Hey Why Don't We Have A Little Slumber Party,Right Here Underneath The Stars?"
"Are You Crazy? We'd Probably Freeze To Death" Ryder Replied
"No We Packed Alot Of Shit" Sam Chimed In
"And Plenty Of Beer" Blaine Grinned
"There Are Sleeping Bags Back Here" Sam Announced
"Really?" Ryder Asked Looking At Jake
"Hey,We Didn't Know What To Expect" Jake Replied
"Okay. Camping Under The Stars Could Be Fun" Ryder Said
"Well,It Wouldn't Be Camping. We Don't Have Campers Or Tents" Sam Teased
"Ah Shut Up" Ryder Smiled
Jake Pulled Over And They All Began To Unpack What They'd Need,Then Headed To A Clearing And Put Their Sleeping Bags Down. Sam And Blaine Carried The Cooler Of Beer Ryder And Jake Had Everything Else.
"Wow It Is Really Beautiful Out Here. Look At All Those Stars" Ryder Stated
"Yes It Is" Jake Replied Staring At Ryder
"You Can't See All The Stars In Town,With All The Lights And Stuff. But Their Pretty Awesome" Sam Replied
Blaine Looked Up Too Briefly Then Said "So Who Wants A Beer?"
"The Question Is Who Doesn't?" Jake Teased
They Laid On Their Sleeping Bags And Began Drinking,Talking And Just Finally Relaxing Without Having Anyone Telling Them What To Do,How To Live Or Who To Love.
They Were Just Being...Them.
