“So it seems everyone is on the bus, I hope you're all comfortable" The students howled in response. “Mr Jones, you forgot about me" Stella whined as she got into the bus. “Oh sorry, please take a seat" She rolled her eyes at him then directly walked towards Aiden's seat. “Move!" She told the girl sitting next to him. The girl quickly stood up. Aiden rolled his eyes but didn't bother to look at her. She sat down. “Baby, I thought I told you to reserve this seat for me?" She murmured to Aiden. Aiden turned to glare at her. “How many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me that?" He said through clenched teeth. Stella shrugged and moved closer to him. “Stop being hostile towards me. We have a long way ahead of us" Aiden sighed with self pity. “Unfortunately" He said out loud. The students on the bus snickered, including Rose. Stella told them to shut up and they did. “And why are you laughing? Junior?" She asked Rose. “Okay that's enough, we'll be leaving now" The teacher announced and walked to sit next to the driver. “Aiden quickly took out his phone to text Steven. Aiden: Dude, come sit with me Steven:(≧▽≦) No I'm good over here with Dylan, have fun. Aiden glared at the text message and cussed Steven in his head. When he noticed Stella was about to talk to him again, he quickly took out his headphones and turned the volume to Max. Stella huffed but decided to let him be.
“Do you want to listen to some music?" Grey offered. Rose turned to him and shook her head. “No thank you" She muttered and turned to the window. “Come on, I promise it's really good. What type of songs do you listen to?" He asked, trying to strike up a conversation. “I Don't listen to music" She responded without turning to him. “Then what are your hobbies?" She finally turned to him. “I don't have any hobbies, All I do is take care of my brother" She simply said. Grey looked at her incredulously. “Wow! I need to find you a hobby then, Here" He gave her one ear of the earpiece. “Listen to it a little, '' He told her. She hesitantly took it. YOU BROKE ME FIRST BY TATE MCRAE began to play as soon as she put it in her ear. She had to admit, she liked the song. She suddenly found herself lost in the song for a second. The song felt like it was sung because of her, she didn't even know when teardrops fell from her eyes. Grey quickly wiped the tears away from her eyes. “Is everything okay? Was the song too sad?" He asked worriedly. Rose gave him back his earpiece and wiped away her remaining tears. “I'm sorry, I didn't even know I was crying" She confessed. She rested her head on the headrest and closed her eyes. Something had changed in her. Even when her mother died or when her sperm donor was beating up her mother, she never cried, not even a tear but now she cried because of a song? Something wasn't right. She had gone soft. Grey worriedly glanced at her from time to time and was silently blaming himself for her change of mood. He sighed and decided to leave her to her thoughts. “Hey guys, look!!!" One of the students shouted. Everyone turned to look out their window and gaze upon the beautiful view of Palm Springs resort. Stella tapped Aiden who's eyes were closed and motioned for him to look at the view. He turned to look out the window and was mesmerized by the view. “This looks like it was supposed to be a romantic getaway for couples" One student murmured, taking the words out of most of their mouths. Aiden smiled to himself. “Mr Jones, why did you the principal have to make that stupid rule?" Stella questioned. “So that people like you don't get pregnant, he's trying to help you" Me Jones replied. Stella's face flushed with embarrassment but luckily for her, no one was paying attention to her or Mr Jones, their attention was on the view. The bus finally stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Mr Jones came down and talked to some people before coming back in. “Okay guys, slowly come down the bus" This time they obeyed. “Alright, the girls on one side and the boys on the other" They obeyed. “Good, alright this fine gentleman" He motioned to the man standing at his side “Is going to show you to your rooms. There are fourteen rooms right now so you girls will occupy six rooms while the guys will occupy seven rooms because it seems the boys are more than the girls. I think three to a room should suffice" Mr Jones instructed. A student raised her hand. “We are not in class so you don't have to raise up your hand, Jasmine" He told her. She nodded at him. “Erm...You said there were fourteen rooms right?" “Yeah, that's what I said" “So if the boys get Seven rooms and we get Six rooms, Six plus Seven is thirteen" Jasmine said in confusion. Mr Jones smiled at her. “That's because an individual here paid for his own room" The students murmured amongst themselves. Andrea raised an eyebrow at Aiden and he shrugged. “Who?" Someone asked. “Aiden Zeldon" Gasps filled the air as everyone turned to look at Aiden who stared back at them indifferently. “That's enough now, you guys go settle down in your rooms. Oh and Rose?" Rose turned to him. “Yes sir?" “You will be roommates with Aiden" Everyone gasped and stared wide eyed at Mr Jones. “What?" Rose uttered. “Well I just did a math equation in my head and the rooms won't be enough, one person will be left out" Mr Jones explained. “Then why does it have to be her and why does she have to stay with him?" Stella complained. “They already stay together, what's the difference?" “The difference is that they are going to be staying in the same room and they both of opposite sex" Grey chimed in. “And why can't his sister stay with him instead?" Grey added. “Because I want Rose" Aiden said simply......
