THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS AND FAVORITES AND FOLLOWS AND WHAT NOT.
I really appreciate it. :D Heres the next chapter!

Yup, weekend was finally over. I was kinda glad and sad. Now on a Monday, there was a school field trip to the Appalachian mountains. I'd get to semi-skip school, and see something new. But, it was still considered school nonetheless.

As I boarded the bus, I noticed that Iggy was in front of me. As he found a seat towards the back, he grabbed my hand and pulled me down into the seat with him.

"Seriously Igs! How do you do that? Please at least TRY and act like you're blind, you're seriously freaking me out. Not cool bro."

Iggy just laughed.

"I'm psychic! That's how! Obviously..." Iggy said, in all of his sarcastic seriousness.

Just as we were both laughing, a tall mocha-skinned girl sat down next to Iggy and I.

"Hi Iggy! OMG who is this is this the girl you were telling me about?! If so let me introduce myself. HI! Im Nudge what's your name? Everyone always says I talk a lot but I don-"

"Nudge! Shut up, please!" Iggy said, like it happened every day. It probably did. "Nudge meet Max, Max meet Nudge. Nudge is a close friend of mine."

I loved this girl already. She was so bubbly and cheerful!

"Hey Nudge. Nice to meet ya," I greeted, sticking my hand out. She shook it vigorously. I bounced up and down in my seat until she stopped.

"So whaddya think about this trip? You think we are going to see some birds? I love birds. Aren't birds awesome? The way they fly..." Nudge babbled on.

"I think we will. Probably some hawks or condors.. Awesome birds. Can't wait!" I told them. Iggy and Nudge looked at each other.

"What?" I asked them.

"Oh, it's nothing," Iggy replied.

I ignored the sudden weirdness and just looked out the window, counting the passing cars. After about 2 hours, we arrived at the site where we would begin our long hike. But we didn't get off the bus just yet. Our homeroom teacher stood up at the front, holding a clipboard in her hand.

"Alright folks, we have arrived. However, we will be hiking in groups of two or three. Considering you guys can't make simple choices like this without causing ruckus, I have picked out your groups for you," the teacher babbled on, looking insanely bored.
"Ella and Sam. Nudge and Iggy. Lissa and Bridget. Cameron and Gazzy. Kara and Ashley. Bob and Drake. Kingsley and Jake. Kate and Kathryn. Gianna and Charlotte. And last of all, Maxine and Fang."

Ok, two things wrong with "Maxine and Fang". One, my name is NOT and never will be Maxine! Max-i-mum. Second of all, I'm paired with Fang! Of all people, FANG.

I think I'm cursed. I have to be cursed. Why do I keep getting paired with Fang? Why?! What was the horribly thing I did to deserve this? I must have killed about 2000 people to deserve this..

Out of anger, I stood up straight in my seat.

"Excuse me miss. I can not be paired with *Fang*. I can't! Please can I switch with someone? Anyone!" I desperately told the teacher. Several girls all started yelling and volunteering to switch. They must be crazy.

"Sorry Maxine, I made these arrangements before hand. It's not the end of the world, just sit down," the teacher told me.

"Yeah, sorry Ride. Looks like you'll be stuck with me," Fang said, putting his hands behind his head and grinning.

On the outside, I looked pissed. On the inside, I was banging my head against a wall and screaming for help.

20 minutes into the hike I decided I needed to use the bathroom.

"Fang, I need to use the bathroom. Know where it is?" I asked him, seeing he had a map and a GPS in his hands.

"Aww Maxie, don't use that old excuse to try and get away from me. Lets just keep walking.." Fang said, slinging his arm around my shoulder in a "drunk man" kind of way.

"Fang! I really need to go!" I yelled, shrugging his arm off of me.

"Fine fine. Bathroom is a little short way up. Gotta warn you though, I've heard horror stories about that old thing," Fang told me, winking.

"Whatever. Lets just get there quick."

We soon arrived at the old wooden and rotting shack that they called a bathroom. I could smell the stench from yards away.

"Having second thoughts yet?" Fang asked.

"No, it's just smelly. Wait here, I'll be back," I huffed, walking towards it.

As I approached the wooden shack, I noticed that it stood on stilts. Right under it was a pipe that led straight into the ground. A leaky pipe. A pipe that was leaking all the disgusting waste right into the open air. I gagged.

Hesitating, I pushed the door slightly open. It creaked as it turned on its hinges. There was absolutely no light inside. I'd have to go pee in the dark.

I didn't even bother sitting on the toilet. I held myself up. When I was finished, I looked at the roll of toilet paper. It had bugs crawling all over it. I decided to pass on wiping myself. Touching that thing looked way more harmful than cleaning myself.

I pulled my pants up, and started to walk out. All of a sudden, the floor gave under me. The wooden boards cracked and I fell straight down. Right into the soggy, disgusting, unsanitary ground.

Ew.

I tried to pull myself back out, but the broken boards were pointy and prevented me from getting out. I could feel myself getting more and more soaked by the wet ground under me. I decided to resort to my last option.

"FANG!" I yelled. I heard him running over to me. He opened the door and saw the mess I was in.

"Now Ride, how on earth did you manage to do that? You know, instead of making a hole in the floor, you could have just used the toilet. A much less destructive way."

"Just get me out!" I said, extremely frustrated.

"Alright alright, hold on," Fang said. He bent over and started pulling the boards up towards him, making the hole even larger. After a few minutes of breaking the floor, the hole was finally big enough for me to climb out safely.

"Thanks," I simply said, looking down at my now ruined pants. Only one thing to do. I took a Swiss Army knife out of my bag. I started cutting my jeans off. At the end, they were now a mid-thigh length, but at least I wouldn't have to walk around with human poop covering my legs. Fang just watched.

"Come on, lets go. We are late," I told Fang, walking ahead of him. I continued walking on the trail.

Fang POV

I just watched as Max severed her jeans by more than 3 quarters. When she finished, she just walked ahead of me and back onto the trail.

"Come on, lets go. We are late," she told me.

I walked behind her. I watched as the now shorts hugged her legs. Her long, tan, curvy legs.

Wait, what?! Forget I ever said that.

I didn't say anything as we continued walking. Max was in the lead, holding the map. Every few minutes she would stop to check that we were on the right track, and then continue. I was wordless the whole way.

Max POV

Finally Fang and I made it to the overhang where the rest of our class was waiting. Nudge looked at me and screamed.

"MAX! What the hell happened to your beautiful jeans?! Those cost $40!"

Iggy came over and felt the now shorts. He felt their jaggedness.

"Woah Max, what happened?" Iggy asked.

"Maxie over here fell into a hole to use the bathroom and couldn't get out. She needed my help, didn't you Maxie?" Fang grinned.

"Nooo. I went into this dirty old bathroom shack and the wooden floor collapsed under me. I fell into dirty soggy sewage mud and got most of my pants wet. I cut them off because I didn't want to walk around wearing human poop."

Nudge's face looked disgusted by my story. As did Iggy's. Fang just grinned.

"Ewwww!" Nudge shrieked. I rolled my eyes.

"Come on guys, lets complete the worksheet," I said.

After we finished the work that our teacher had given us, Nudge, Iggy, Fang, and I sat all on the overhand, swinging our legs and looking at the giant scenic view ahead of us.

"Woah, guys! Look at the tiny town all the way out there!" I gasped, gazing at the teeny tiny town way out past the mountains. Fang and Nudge (cause Iggy, can't of course, see), looked at me with this speechless look. Then as if on command, the two squinted their eyes towards the town. They said nothing.

"What? Can't you see it?" I asked. This whole speechless amazement thing was really starting to creep me out.
