Chapter Nine: School Trip Part 1

"Are you sure we should be letting her go?" Jason packed her big pink suitecase in her trunk.

"It's a school field trip, Jason." Sam assured him. "Nothing's gonna happen, a lot of teachers are going."

"Still, A night alone with her boyfriend."

"She's not alone, Clay's going and so are Josslyn and Noah."

"Great." He mumbled sarcastically.

"Austin, your going to be late!" Sam yelled.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Austin said walking outside in all black, but her pink rainboots.

Sam smiled. "Nice boots."

"Aunt Maxie bought them for me." Austin shrugged her shoulders. "The weather man said there was a chance of rain, too"

Jason laughed. "Be safe, call us if there's reception."

"I will dad, Love you." She kissed him on the cheek.

"Don't get into trouble, be good." Sam kissed her. "But, have fun."

"Promise, Love you mom." Austin said getting into her car.

"Joss, we're only going for two days." Clay laughed.

"But I want to look good those two days." Josselyn expained. "So I brought almost everything."

"You mean, there's more at your house?" Noah laughed. "There's no way."

"Shut up."

"Austin, save me from these dumb boys!" Josselyn hugged Austin as she walked up with Liam. "How will we ever survive a whole two days with them?"

"It's gonna be a tough one." Austin smiled.

"All Students on the bus!" Mrs. Swan yelled.

"Load um up." Noah smiled at Josselyn. "Ladies first."

"Hey, Liam." Clay walked up next to him. "Can I talk to you?"

"Yeah, sure." Liam hesitated.

"I just wanted to say, that, I'm sorry." Clay looked down. "For you know, what happened."

Liam smiled. "It's in the past, Man. We're cool."

Clay nodded thanks before getting on the bus.

"What?" Liam smiled seeing Austin looking at him.

"Your something special, Liam Spencer." She touched his face.

"If boys are found in the girls rooms after curfew there will be server consequences!" Mrs. Swan warned them. "And vice versa, Now find your rooms and report back here in thirty minutes for lunch!"

There were only about fifteen kids that went on the field trip, Austin had decided that only those fifteen could afford the outrageous price.

"This place is awesome!" Josselyn tossed her bag onto one of the queen sized beds. "I guess you get what you paid for."

The cabin looked just like Austin thought a log cabin would. Animal skin rungs, deer heads and other things hanging on the walls, this is the kind of camping she liked.

"There's no TV." Josselyn whined.

"You thought there would be?" Austin smiled.

"Uh, yeah."

Austin laughed and then checked for cell phone reception. "No signal."

"This place is not awesome." Joss pouted.

"I think we're going hiking tomorrow." Liam laced his fingers with Austin as they lounged on the cabin couch.

"It's suppose to get real icy." Austin said. "It's gonna rain and snow tomorrow."

Liam shrugged his shoulders. "I'm sure it'll be fine."

It would be, Austin thought. If we were in any other place than Port Charles.
