Save Me From Myself

Bus Ride

Marinette POV

My alarm blared signaling that I need to get up. I checked the time, 5:06 in the morning. I had to be at school by 5:45 so my luggage could be packed on the bus. Snow was coming by later to drop her cat off. She said her parents were busy and wouldn't be able to watch her cat while she's away. I'm glad my parents will be back to watch them though.

I walked to the bathroom and brushed my teeth, put my hair in pigtails, and got dress. Since I was going to be on a bus for almost ten hours I wore black leggings, t-shirt with a black and gray hoodie, and black converse. I finished packing my backpack to have with me during the ride. All it had inside was my sketchbook, pencil case, earbuds, and a baggie with three cookies in it for Tikki. I heard a small buzz and looked at my phone. Alya texted.

"Hey girl, I'm going to meet up with you at your bakery. See you in 20."

I walked down to the bakery, put my pink duffle bag, backpack, pillow, and black blanket with pink bows on it by the door, and got ingredients for Alya, Snow, and I to make smoothies. Not even a minute later, the bell from the bakery rang and Snow walked through the door.

"Hey." She said with a yawn and small wave. She had on her leggings with the rips at her knees (the ones she usually wears) and a baggy long sleeved shirt. And of course, her necklace. She hasn't taken it off once that I've seen.

"Hey." I said back. I looked at the little cat in her arms. "You can go out her in my house, it's unlocked."

She nodded and went upstairs. I looked at everything she had for the trip. A small, gray duffle bag that was half the size of mine, a pillow, and red blanket.

Author POV

Alya walked in which woke Marinette from her wondering. "Hey, girl!" Alya cheered. Alya was hyped for this trip, way too excited for 5:25 in the morning. Alya laid down her orange and purple duffle bag, pillow, and Ladybug blanket with Snow and Marinette's stuff. (Why am I being so detailed about darn luggage, idk). Alya was wearing leggings, a t-shirt with her LadyBlog logo on it, and her regular shoes. Her hair was in a lazy bun and still had pieces of hair falling down the sides of her face. Alya looked at Snow's stuff.

"She sure does pack lightly for a trip that last almost a week."

Snow came trotting back downstairs. The three girls chatted and made smoothies. Marinette made a strawberry banana smoothie, Alya made a blueberry smoothie, and Snow made a mango one. They decided to make ones for Nino and Adrien too. At 5:42, they left to meet up with everyone at the school. Everyone was dressed in comfortable clothing too since they'll be sitting for so long.

As they stepped onto the campus, right beside the bus, they noticed almost everyone was already there. The three girls walked up to the two boys who were chatting. Adrien adjusted the black duffle bag on his shoulder and looked over at the girls.

"Hey, girls." He waved. Nino sat down his blue duffle bag, pillow, and blanket to hug Alya and set her luggage on the ground.

"We made you two smoothies." Alya said taking a sip of her own, pointing to Marinette who was holding a cardboard cup holder with two smoothies in it. She held it out to the boys and they each picked up one. (I am trying so hard to limit my use of the word "y'all" in my writing. It's so hard because I'm country and am constantly saying it 24/7)

A white limousine pulled up and the door opened to reveal Chloe and Sabrina. The five friends watched as Chloe stood on the sidewalk with Sabrina, waiting for her bags. She had a suite case and two duffle bags.
