Last day of training. Before we go to Washington. (Refresher: they are going to Washington.)
"Last thing," our youth pastor starts before sending us off back home. "On the trip there. We know certain places we are to sleep at. But be prepared with very modest pyjamas. Not even shorts. Because on certain days if we don't get to our destination in time we may have to sleep in the cars. And NO I won't tell you what our fun day is before that day is!" Ok then... I'm officially dead. Oh yeah, and our fun day is sorta our break day. It's a day where we do something half way though the trip so that we don't Kill each other. Its always a surprise. We all head out. Tomorrow we are starting the trip. We are working at a homeless shelter and going around Washington giving food bibles blankets and other necessities to homeless around the parks. I'm exited out of my mind. We have a super small youth group coming this year meaning we can go really far to reach out. And yes we are driving. We go to chose our cars so I bet you can guess who's in our car. We are in Zeke's pickup. Meaning we are being technically being illegal riding in the back. But we don't have anymore cars. We're hanging out a Uriah and Zeke's and then the girls are sleeping over at Christina's. Cause her parents are super sweet.
"Hey Amy!" I say as I walk over to the youth group leader. Amy is one of the few people who I trust enough to tell about everything. the waitress thing but the shooting my trust issues. Even about Tobias and how I kissed him. I give her a hug.
"Any updates." She asks concerned
"They know about the maid cafe. But they think I'm a cook but I fell in front of there table. And Toby caught me. I don't think they saw who it was though which is good." I sigh a relief getting it all out. She laughs.
"I swear your clumsiness will kill you. When are you Gonna tell them?"
"NEvEr..." I say looking down she pulls my chin up.
"Honesty is the best policy." I nod
"I'm just not ready to tell them." I say after another hug I head to my friends.
"Hey!" I say they all give me a look. "What!" I say genuinely confused.
"I'll tell you later." Chris says eyeing me. They laugh as I sigh in submission.
"Now let's go!" Will says. We all walk to cars I ride with Chris and marline. Shauna goes in her own car.
"Now tell me!" I shout the second we start driving.
"Nahh." Mar laughs making me wan to know. But I know they won't tell me till tonight so I just decide to pout in the back seat. We get there before the boys so we sit in the driveway.
"When are you going to tell me." I ask
"When we feel like it." Shauna smiles. I groan. When someone won't tell me something it kills me. Which is weird because I keep so many secrets. The boys pull up inches in front of us. As they all get out Chris shouts
"Like to make us scared don't you guys!"
"I honestly didn't notice you where there." Zeke laughs
"Remind me again why we trust HIM to drive us across the u.s." I ask we all laugh and the girls get up. Walking toward the door I feel someone grab my wrist. My heart beats harder. I recognise those hands. Toby. All the others walk in and close their doors. I stop I front of the door. I hear a whisper.
"You don't work as a chef at that cafe do you?" He says
"Meep!" I manage to get out before I open the door walk a foot and close the door in his face. Really Tris! You could have lied. Why can't you lie to Four! Oh yeah, cause he's also Toby. I walk over to my friends that look like they're trying to look like they weren't watching us through the window. I roll my eyes and they all laugh. Toby comes in.
"That's a yes isn't it." I nod. "Fun! Black mail!" He rubs his hands together.
"Meep!" I say again
"I'm kidding!" He laughs. I slap his arm and we go all go to the living room pushing each other into the walls.
"What you want to do?" Will says after we all sit. My legs are on the wall my back in the cushion and my head dangling upside down off the couch. Next to my is Chris, Tobias on the chair on the other side of the love seat.
"Never have I ever. Strip this time." Shauna plots. Rubbing her hands an looking at me evilly.
"Chris I'm taking you car. I flip over and try to walk to the door and grab Chris' keys but Mar runs over and grabs them before I can. I sigh and lay on the floor. A strategy I use so they can't drag or grab me as easily.
"Not again!" Mar complains. "Four! Uriah!"
"Nooooooooo! Not them!" I shout. Uriah always tickles me until I stop laying flat and Four grabs me by my ankles and dangles me from the stairs.
" you could stop now." She smiles.
"Never!" I pout grabbing two chairs. They come out and I start kicking. "Noooooo" but that doesn't help. Four just grabs my feet and Uriah prys my fingers from the chairs. "Drop me I dare you!" I laugh. Threading as I dangle from the stairs everyone else laughing in the livening room.
"Ok then." He lets go.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh" I start to scream. As he grabs me again laughing.
"I wouldn't actually! Will you stay." My heart beats super fast. But the thing is. I love heights. And I'm not really scared. Except on the thing that's holding my ankles. I'm scared of Tobias.
"Fine!" I shout and he pulls me back up so I'm sitting on the railing strattling him. I blush like a tomato and so does he and I slide down to a walk just slow enough not to be called running.
"What did you do to my tris! Why is she red Four!" Chris starts to say.
"What the heck!" I laugh. Making my face turn to a more natural color.
"Your brothers aren't to only protective over you!" I roll my eyes
"Now I can't get a break! Not even on the missions trip." I groan.
"I'm watching you!"
We settle again.
"Ok let's play." Uriah says. Clapping his hands together. I groan. I almost forgot.
Hey guys! Whoever is reading this. Lol. I don't think I'll write much about the trip just the highlights.
