Chapter 4 – At the Ski Lodge

Comments from the author: Here we go, the fourth chapter. Again, I'd like to thank Fudogg and KrazieShadowNinja for being the first two reviewers for my story.

After two hours on a silent bus ride to the ski lodge, we finally got there. "Children, I hold in my hands the key to your happiness." Professor Rotwood said. He was holding ski passes in his hand. "These are ski passes issued by the school." He said.

'Yeah, we can see that.' I said to myself, rolling my eyes. Professor then continued saying, "You must keep them at your person at all times and--" Suddenly, the bus went into a complete stop. All the students in the bus completely trampled him.

I decided to trample Professor Rotwood, but realized that I might fail his class… Even more…

I then grabbed my bag and hopped off the bus. I saw Trixie and Spud, so I caught up to them. "You know, Jake's not the only with a hookup to make this weekend." Spud said.

"Who are you checking for, broham?" Trixie asked. 'Not who, what." Spud corrected. "The ski lift is my valentine. She's playing it cool right now, but once I get on the bus Sunday morning, she will be mine." Spud said.

Trixie then looked at me and asked, "Uh, can you translate Spud for me please?" She asked me because Spud and I went on a ski trip before, but she couldn't come because she got sick.

"Spud has never made it on a ski lift." I stated. "He's kind of… Terrified of it." I continued, feeling kind of bad for saying it.

Spud overheard me and said, "Not terrified, gentle. Watch." Trixie and I shrugged and watched. "Here girl, gently." He said. As soon as the ski lift was moving close to Spud, he ducked down and said, "Okay! Terrified!"

Trixie and I exchanged a glance then we all decided to go inside the ski lodge to find our rooms and see who our roommates were.

The three of us went inside.
