…

Alicia was the first one up. She flipped over onto her back and stretched out arms and legs. "Wake up, Mass," she yawned. She reached over to shake her friend. Instead of feeling the silk material of Massie's tank top, Alicia's hand met something rock hard. Her hand paused and hovered over the bums. What the hell?

Placing her hand back on the surface, Alicia paused. It felt really hard. She moved her hand. And bumpy. And tight. Like…

Alicia paused as her brain cleared. Like abs! Man abs at that.

Alicia yelped and snatched her hand back. She looked over onto Massie's "bed" and yelped again. There, sleeping peacefully was Derrick Harrington, his arm wrapped protectively around the waist of none other than Massie Block. Her thin arm was draped around his torso and her face was buried into his shirtless chest. His was buried in her curls. They actually looked cute together.

Wow, Alicia thought. I wonder what I missed last night.

The door to one of the rooms opened and Dylan and Kristen trooped out wearing matching shorts and tanks. "Morning Leesh," Kristen yawned. Dylan gave a wave and continued right on to the kitchen. A few moments later: "Who ate the rest of my Luna bars?"

Her shout jolted Claire out of Dreamland. "God, Dylan, keep it down will you?" Kristen hissed. Claire muttered something and pulled a pillow over her face. Kristen walked over to where Alicia was now sitting staring at Massie's bed in awe.

"Why are you looking at Mass like," Kristen said. She stopped short. Then, "Oh." A smile broke out onto her face. "Wow, when did this happen?" "I dunno," Alicia said. Dylan came walking out the kitchen with a bagel. "What are you guys looking at?" she asked. She stepped over to where her friends were sitting. Her reaction was pretty much the same as Kris and Leesh.

It took less than five minutes for the trio to wake everyone else up to witness the unpredictable sight that was Massie and Derrick curled up together.

"I feel like a peeping Tom," Claire said. Alicia pulled out her phone and hurriedly snapped a picture. Everyone turned to look at her. "What?" she asked defensively. "We should, like, wake them," Dylan said in her too loud morning voice. It was loud enough to rouse Derrick from his sleep.

He blinked twice, stared up at his friends, stared back at Massie sleeping peacefully at his side, then back up his friends, and then back down at Massie. "What the hell do you want?" Derrick groaned, falling back into his pillow. He prodded Massie's side with his hand, waking her up.

"It's not what it looks like," Massie said exasperatedly when Derrick explained everything to her. "Something came up last night, I couldn't sleep, and Derrick came to… comfort me. That's all."

"What kind of something?" Josh asked. Massie felt her cheeks suffuse with heat as she remembered last night. In her defense though, hobos were known to break into cars on the side of roads. "None of your business," Massie said. The rest of the PC and the boys looked at each other. It was easy to see what they were thinking. "Ohmigod you guys!" Massie screeched. "Get your minds out of the gutter! Not that kind of something!"

Apparently, Derrick thought that the whole situation was funny, since that he was laughing next to Massie. Massie felt her heart ache when she looked at him. He was just so freakin' adorable.

"C'mon guys, we need to get a move on," Cam announced. He stretched, flexing his biceps, and headed to the kitchen. "Yeah, we need to be outta here by 9," Chris said, following Cam. Alicia sighed, clearly annoyed that the topic was over and she wouldn't be having anything new to gossip about. Massie just rolled her eyes and stood up. She grabbed her carry on and followed Dylan to the bathroom. It was going to be a long day.

Trees. Road. Dust. More trees. More road, more dust. "Are you sure this is the right interstate?" Claire called to the front of the bus where Derrick was driving and Massie was sitting. "I keep asking the same thing," Massie said. "I told you guys to just listen to the GPS," she continued. During their drive, the boys had insisted that taking a different highway would get them to their destination faster. The girls weren't so sure, but because none of them could read a map, they had gone along with it.

"I swear to god, if you guys have me lost, I'll sue," Alicia shouted. She peered out the window. "Ehmagawd! Is that a snake?" she shrieked. "There aren't snakes this far up north," Josh rolled his eyes. Alicia sniffed but didn't respond.

Massie pulled her Chanel glasses over her eyes to block out the sun and stared out the window. After that awkward morning, she was barely able to look at Derrick. She still liked him, there was no denying that. Now the only thing was, she had to figure out if he liked her back, and then there was that thing with Claire…

Massie rubbed her temples. She was over thinking. She usually left that sort of thing to Kristen. Massie grabbed her iPod and pulled them into her ears and turned on We R Who We R, her new favorite song. Why couldn't the day be over already?

Massie had began dozing off in her seat. She closed her eyes and then, "I think we're lost." "What?" every member of the PC shrieked. Dylan fell dramatically into Chris's arms. "Calm down, I'll just use the GPS," Derrick said. He started to pull over to the side of the road, not that anyone was on it anyway.

Then, Boom, Pshhh, Screechh! "Derrick," Massie began calmly. "You better not tell me that-," she was cut off. "Our tire just busted," Derrick announced. There were groans from everyone in the bus. "I'll just call AAA," Cam sighed. After a few seconds, he announced, "No signal!" Everyone pulled out their phones. Massie grabbed her iPhone and checked. "None for me either," she said. "Negative," Kristen said. "Same," said Dylan. One by one, everyone confirmed that they had no service.

"Well, looks like we'll be here for a while," Derrick groaned, rubbing his temples. He climbed out and began walking down the road with his phone in the air. "Derrick, buddy system," Kemp hollered and ran to catch up with him. "This just sucks," Massie groaned. First she had to come on this trip, now she was stranded. Could the day get any worse?
