"Is everyone here?" Bombay asks as everyone takes their seats on the team bus.

Things have been super stressful lately with the Goodwill Games going on - especially with the appearance from captain blood. When we finally got Bombay back, Miss Mckay convinced him to plan a fun day out for us. In the end, he decided on taking us to a carnival a little over an hour from the dorms. Even Jan and Tibbles are coming.

"Luis, stop talking to girls!" I yell through the window.

"Yeah, we gotta go!" Adam shouts from the seat in front of me. We both shake our heads laughing as he drags himself away from them and onto the bus.

"Alright, Ducks, let's do this!" Bombay announces as we set off - we all cheer, hyped for the day ahead.

I sit next to Dean, taking the window seat. Fulton and Kenny are across from us - Fulton taking the aisle to be closer to Dean. Adam is in front of me with Charlie. Everyone else is paired off around the bus. About 5 minutes into the drive, Dean stops talking and stares at me with disgusted look on his face. After a couple seconds, I realise what stunned him. Suddenly, the whole bus whines:

"Goldberg!" Luckily, we quickly opened the windows.

Another 20 minutes go by and people are already taking pictures and talking about the rides they want to go on. I didn't have the best night's sleep so hopefully I can get some more in before we get there.

"Hey, Dean. I was planning on taking a nap - would you mind if I leaned on you? If I lean on the window, I'll wake up with a killer headache from the vibrations." I ask, not wanting to cross any boundaries.

"We're close enough that you don't gotta ask - you know that. Go ahead."

"Thanks, man, appreciate it." I smile as I rest my head on his shoulder, falling asleep soon after.

Next thing I know, I'm slowly starting to wake up as I hear chatter amongst the bus. As I open my eyes, I see the whole team staring and smiling.

"Adorable." Connie squeals.

"Huh?" I say groggily whilst rubbing my eyes.

"Y'all are so cute." Dwayne pipes up.

"Seriously, just kiss already." Ken finishes.

I then realised that Dean had also fallen asleep during the ride and was now resting his head on mine whilst our arms are linked. Somehow he's still asleep. Amongst all the the comments and smirks, I see Luis take a photo of us from the middle of the crowd.

"Mendoza, I hope you can run as fast as you can skate 'cause I'm gonna whoop your ass when we get off this bus if you even think about posting that photo!" I raise my voice, causing Dean to jump awake.

"How about we leave injuries for ice time go have some fun?" Bombay puts a hand on Luis' shoulder as he's about to run away.

After the suggestion, everyone starts leaving the bus. The Bash Brothers and I are the last to leave since we're at the back. Portman looks so confused and asks what the hell just happened.

"Ya both fell asleep looking all cute and Luis took a picture." Fulton quickly explains.

"I gotta see that picture then." He says, seemingly more awake.

"What?" Ken asks, confused as we reach the door of the bus.

"I wanna know if we actually did look cute." He shrugs.

"Not the reaction I was expecting." Fulton states with a raised eyebrow as we join everyone by the carnival entrance.

"This place looks great!" I hear Tibbles' enthusiasm.
