6am
Jac's alarm went off and she smacked it like he he normally would to make the infernal noise stop. Jac stretched her arms out in front of her and groaned which woke Jonny up.
"Are you excited?" Jonny asked happily.
"Yeah I really want to spend the day walking and then sleep on the ground when the temperature's below freezing." Jac joked as she slid out of bed.

"Well we can keep each other warm in the night." Jonny said suggestively as he too got out of bed and then pulled the duvet back over the bed.
"I am not having sex in a tent Jonny." Jac stated.
"I didn't mean that! I meant we could cuddle!" Jonny protested. "God, you think everything is related to sex don't you?" He joked and Jac replied by putting her middle finger up, sarcastically smiling, grabbing a towel and slamming the ensuite door to go for a shower.

6:50am
Given that it was so early, there was no traffic and Jac wanted to get there early so she could sit at the back. Jonny had both of the large and heavy hiking bags on his back, and Jac had her smaller day bag on one shoulder that weighed about 5kg. Jac was wearing grey and blue hiking boots with full length black leggings, a hoodie and a north face black waterproof coat that was quite tight around her bump. She had her hair tied up in a high ponytail. Jonny was wearing with a hoodie and a black super dry water proof coat.

It was freezing, when they exhaled it looked like they were smoking. It was cloudy and murky, the black clouds above them didn't look promising for the hours ahead.

"Morning." Jonny said to Sam and Tom who were sitting with their arms around each other's waist in the wide doorway of the mini bus. It seated 18 in the back and 4 including the driver in the front. Though it was more of a small coach because it had storage underneath the seating area and it had storage shelves above the seats too. There were two people sitting in the front which didn't go unnoticed by Jac.

"Morning. You can put your bags in there." Tom stated as he nodded towards the open storage that was under the seats where their two bags already were as well as several beanbags for later. They were mainly for Jac and the older ones. He and Sam here sitting there with a steaming cup of coffee from the cafe. Jonny dumped both his and Jac's bags in there but Jac kept her day bag on here back.

"Who're they?" Jac asked as she nodded to the man and woman sitting in the front.
"That's Dixie and Fletch." Tom stated. "Dixie's driving for us because she haso the license and Fletch is our first aider." He added.

"First aider?" Jac said it like Tom was stupid.
"Well it sounds stupid but because of the rules, candidates can't be first aiders, so it could only me or Sam and Fletch really wanted to get out of the house for the weekend because his wife's pregnant and a bit hormonal." Tom explained, though he went quiet when he looked at Jac's bump and remembered that she too was pregnant.

"I think I can understand why he might want to escape a pregnant woman for a day or two." Jonny joked which earnt him an elbow in the chest.

"Morning." Dixie smiled as she and Fletch got out of the coach to greet the early campers (get what I did there ;)) Jac attention was immediately drawn to Dixie's cup of coffee. To avoid the smell, Jac quickly backed away from Dixie and hid behind Jonny.

"If you want to survive the night, I suggest you don't have that coffee in the coach when we set off." Jonny joked. He could feel Jac burying her head in his back.

"If we um leave our stuff on the back seats can you keep them free while we just go and grab breakfast?" Jonny asked, he knew Jac wanted to sit at the back and they were planning on eating whilst they were walking; Jac's day bag had their lunch, two bottles of water and plenty of snacks including cashew nuts, dolly mixture and chocolate buttons. But he thought that if they had the chance, they should probably go and get something a bit more substantial from the cafe. That and to avoid Dixie's coffee.

"Yeah sure. Jac, you alright? You look a bit pale." Tom asked kindly as Jonny jumped into the coach and put Jac's bag on the back left corner seat and his coat on the one next to her. He quickly exited the coach and joined Jac again.
"Yeah fine, I'm just a bit cold." Jac said as she rubbed her arms.
"C'mon, we'll get a hot chocolate." Jonny said as he put his hands on Jac and turned her around. Sam and Tom smirked at them as Jonny slipped his arm around her waist on the way to the cafe but Jac slapped his hand off.

"Those two are like an old married couple." Sam joked as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"Mm. Just think tonight it's going to be me and you in a sleeping bag-" Tom began.
"With twelve other people that we're responsible for and these two." Sam interrupted to stop him from saying anymore that could've been inappropriate as she nodded towards Dixie and Fletch.

"Hey don't let us stop you two from sleeping together." Fletch joked.
"That reminds me actually, shouldn't us four give them lot the choice of tents first?" Dixie suggested. They had three two men tents, a six man tent and a four man tent.
"Nope." Tom said quickly, he knew that the two man tents would go first and that's what he and Sam wanted. "One two man tent is reserved by Jac and Jonny, the other is for Me and Sam. So you two can either have the other two man tent or you can sleep with a bunch of strangers." Tom added.

"Well this is going to be cosy." Dixie joked, he and fletch sharing a two man tent together. It wasn't going to be awkward because Fletch was married, as was Dixie though Fletch was aware of her sexuality so they were both fine with it.

Meanwhile...
Jac and Jonny had just sat down at a table each with a hot chocolate, raspberry and white chocolate muffin and cookie when Serena came up to them. They had that for breakfast because they had both agreed that they were going to need the energy and they sugar to survive the day.

"All ready to go?" Serena asked to rub it in that they were going though she tried to make it sound like she meant it.
"Haha." Jac said sarcastically as she licked the froth off of the stirrer in her hot chocolate. Jonny smirked at Jac as she began to pick out the white chocolate from the muffin.
"Jac, if I had the choice I wouldn't make you go but Mr Hanssen had already booked it and the board was insistent that everyone had to go." Serena said honestly. Jac seemed to ignore the comment as she continued to eat. "Right well, hope all goes well." Serena said awkwardly as Jonny smiled at her and she left them to it.

"There was no need for that. It's not her fault." Jonny stated.
"Can you, wait her for a minute? I need the toilet." Jac stated as she stood up but Jonny stopped her.
"Are you okay? In the bladder department I mean." Jonny asked caringly.
"What do you mean?" Jac asked confusedly.
"Well you're going quite a lot more than I thought you would. You haven't got a UTI or anything have you?" Jonny asked kindly hoping that if he smiled, she'd be honest.
"No, I'm fine. I just need a wee." Jac replied as she headed to the bathroom. Once in there, she locked herself in the cubicle and unzipped her waterproof coat pocket. She took out two travel sickness wristbands and put them on hoping they would make the journey tolerable. She didn't really need the toilet she just didn't want him or anyone else on the coach knowing she got carsick.

She quickly zipped up her coat which had to be tightly pulled together over her bump. Jac still had time because she wasn't going to the toilet so she exited the cubicle and looked at herself in the mirror. She hadn't bothered with her usual eye makeup and instead she had just used a thin layer of foundation to give her face a bit of colour.

Soon, Jac and Jonny returned to the coach at 6:55am. They had five minutes before they were due to leave and most people were already on the coach. Jac and Jonny made their way to the back of the coach to find that in the spare seat next to the two that they had reserved was Mo.
"Good morning." Mo said as she yawned. Jac remained silent, squeezed last Mo and sat down gently next to the window and put her bag between her feet.
"Morning." Jonny replied as he sat in between the two women.

All except Harry Tressler and Gemma Wilde had arrived with just seconds to spare they ran to the coach and Sam and Tom ticked them off. They dumped their items, including a large black bag containing boxes from Harry in the storage below and they shut the door behind them.
"Good night was it?" Mary Claire asked as she faked a smile.
"No, I was dropping Finn off with my Mum. I don't know why he's late." Gemma said as she took a seat by the window.

"My alarm didn't go off." Harry lied, slightly out of breath, as he plonked himself between Gemma and Mary Claire.
"Yeah right. Your alarm didn't go off or it did go off but you turned it off and fell asleep again?" Gemma joked and Harry smirked.

At the back, Jonny entwined his fingers with Jac's. She glanced down at their hands, then up and Jonny and back out of the window again to hide her smile. Jonny then looked down at their hands and noticed something white showing from under both of Jac's sleeves.
"Do you get travel sick?" Jonny whispered into Jac's ear.
"No." Jac lied confidently.
"Right, so those aren't travel sickness bands." Jonny said quietly. Jac quickly pulled her hands away from Jonny's and pulled her sleeves down.

"If you want to stop just tell me and I'll say I need the toilet." Jonny whispered kindly. He meant if she really didn't feel well, he would ask to stop at a services for the toilet so that she could get some air. Jac didn't reply. Jonny cupped his hand on top of Jac's again which was on her thigh. Surprisingly, she made no attempt to pull it away.

Mo had heard the conversation because she was sitting right next to them but she thought it was best not to mention in.

"Right ladies and gentlemen, welcome to you DofE expedition. obviously me and Tom are your leaders. Dixie, is our driver and Fletch, is our first aider. No complaints there please. Seatbelts on and I think we're ready." Sam explained to the twelve participants. She turned around to face the front and put her own seatbelt on.
"Right, let's go." Tom said loudly as Dixie started the engine and pulled away. Sam was sat right next to Tom for obvious reasons; she couldn't bare to be apart from him. And besides Tom was Fletch, then Dixie.

What Sam and Tom didn't know, was that when they came on, Michael, Sacha, Harry, Mo and Mary Claire had all brought on alcohol including several crates of beers, and hidden it below when Sam and Tom weren't looking. They weren't sure if it was allowed or not but it was best to be safe and hide it before they left.

Jac looked above in the overhead storage and saw that there was an acoustic guitar up there.
"Whose guitar is that?" Jac moaned rather loudly.
"Oh come on, we've got to have a bit of a sing song!" Edward joked and Jac face palmed.

"Oi." Jonny said as he realised that Jac didn't have her seatbelt on. He reached across and secured it, ensuring that the belt was below her bump. Jac knew it was just an excuse to touch her bump but she didn't really have a lot of choice in the matter.

He slipped his arm around her back and rested his hand on a Jac's waist. Jac put her hand around her bump and linked her fingers with his hand on her hip.

"The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round..." Sacha and Michael started singing and Elliot and Edward show were sitting next to each other laughed at them but soon joined in.

Zorsia was sitting in the seat just behind Tom, on the front row, by herself with ep her headphone in with Arthur who had been forced to sit next to her sitting awkwardly.

Jac rolled her eyes. Were they really going to be this noisy and hyperactive for the whole trip?
