"What's with the pillow?" I asked Roman as we waited for Blake and Jordan that were getting their bags checked.
"Oh, I always take it with me, I can't sleep without it." He said looking at the pillow resting in his hands with what seemed like a small sleepy smile.
I smiled at how adorable that sounded, even if he looks hella intimidating and maybe scary to some people, he can be cute.
"That's cute." I admitted to him with a chuckle escaping from my lips.
"No, it's annoying." He said shaking his head. "Your whole sleep depending on a pillow is definitely no fun."
"Yeah, you have a point." I agreed, I know how annoying it is not being able to sleep.
"Fucking finally guys, you had drugs in your bags or why it took so damn long?" Roman said as Blake and Jordan reached us.
"Well maybe if last time they checked our school bags they hadn't found condoms in your bag, they wouldn't have to check all of our bags twice." Blake said defensively leaving me shocked but amused with this situation.
"In my defense I had no idea they were there!" Roman said getting out of his sleepy trance.
Jordan grabbed my backpack that was sitting on top of my small suitcase and put it in his bare shoulders. I was going to stop him, considering he was also carrying his bags, but he looked so funny with it. My liliac backpack looked really colorful for his all black outfit, but he didn't seemed to care.
As we reached the bus Roman didn't waste another second and rested his head on his pillow that was now against the bus window of his seat. Blake sat next to him and put on his AirPods before resting his head in the seat.
We all were pretty tired I see.
I sat in one of the lonely pair of seats behind Roman and Blake. I wasn't sure if Jordan would willingly sit with me, but he did and I wasn't that stupid to realize he didn't exactly had another option since his two best friends were sitting together already, and he did say before he didn't want to hang with random people.
Looking through the window I noticed it was still pretty dark outside, but we could see how the sun was slowly rising from afar.
After a few minutes, my eyes felt heavier with every second that passed, and trying to keep them open became a whole sport.
I didn't realize I was actually falling asleep until a harsh movement from the bus made me bump my head with the window.
"Ow!" I squealed in pain as I held my forehead and opened my eyes in horror.
"Uh, you can rest your head in my shoulder." Jordan said softly besides me, a hint of hesitation linked in his tone, and I was too tired to reject that offer. Conscious me would have hesitated over the fact that I may bother him, but sleepy me couldn't care less. After all, he was the one offering.
I slowly rested my head in his shoulder and closed my eyes again. "Thanks." I muttered without even realizing.
Jordan's POV
I'm so fucking stupid.
Offering her to sleep in my shoulder was my biggest mistake.
I was trying my best to focus on my phone, but my eyes and my mind kept wandering to the girl that was now resting her head against my chest.
The problem here is not that she is sleeping in my chest, the problem is that I like it.
I shouldn't.
I really shouldn't, but seeing her sleeping this close to me made me felt some sort of peace, and that's what scared the shit outta me.
The bus was taking some turns that made everyone inside move with it. I didn't think it twice and wrapped my arm securely around her, pulling her even closer to me so she wouldn't move that much.
"Aww, you two cuddle now?" Roman's head popped from the seats in front of us.
"Shut the hell up, you are going to wake her up." I whispered glaring at the smiling idiot.
He just showed me his middle finger before disappearing in his seat to which I rolled my eyes.
Adira's POV
I woke up and the first thing that came to my mind is: what the heck?
I was in a moving vehicle, I could tell that even in my still sleepy trance. I opened my eyes and I was met with darkness. Literally darkness.
I thought for half a second that maybe I didn't actually open my eyes and I was still dreaming, but when I felt something moving besides me I was sure that felt too real to be a dream.
I moved my hands around me and noticed how I was covered in a soft material.
Am I being kidnapped?
More importantly, what the hell is this creature besides me, I just hope with all my heart that it isn't some freaking rat.
"Hey, relax." I heard the creature say and I completely freaked out when I noticed how close it was that I could literally feel something vibrating beneath my ear.
I grabbed the soft material with my hands and tried to get it off my face with swift movements thinking I would need to break it somehow to get rid of it, but then I realized I barely needed to move to get it off me.
The sudden light hitting my face made me narrow my eyes and even cover them with my hand.
When I was finally able to look around I noticed I was in a bus, it took me a few seconds to remember why was I in a bus.
"Adira?" I heard a familiar voice really close to me, like literally beneath me.
I moved and sat up straight to meet chocolate eyes looking my way.
I was relieved that I wasn't being kidnapped, but I was completely embarrassed when I realized what actually happened. I was asleep, resting my head against Jordan's chest, and the worst part is that I didn't remember falling asleep at all.
"Are you ok?" Jordan talked again stopping my train of thoughts. I looked at him and he had his infamous blank look in his face, I couldn't tell if he was annoyed or not.
"Uh yes." I replied shortly after. I looked at my hands that were still grabbing a piece of fabric that I soon realized it was a jacket. I suppose Jordan's jacket.
"Why was I covered?" I asked him with a frown in my face.
"You were trembling." He said looking at my still covered body and then at my face.
I should have known bringing shorts was not a great idea.
"I thought I was being kidnapped with my face covered." I said holding in a laugh at my stupidity.
"You kept bringing the jacket all the way up to your face, I'm surprised you didn't die due to lack of oxygen." He said with a small smirk.
I thought I was being kidnapped but turns out it was all me. I played my own self.
"Sorry for, uh, sleeping that close to you." I said biting my bottom lip nervously scared he was actually angry because of this.
"I'm used to it by now." He said looking forward with a mocking tone that made me want to punch his arm.
"This has accidentally happened twice, calm down." I said putting emphasis in the word accidentally.
"Still more than I would like." He replied which made me glare at him.
"Damn ok, sorry Mr. 'can you play with my hair because it helps me sleep'." I said and he raised an eyebrow. I knew I ended him with that when he took longer to reply.
"I don't know what you are talking about." He said shrugging his shoulders, clearly playing dumb.
"Look, I'm sorry for falling asleep in your shoulder yesterday and today, it won't happen again." I said seriously because I could feel myself getting even more embarrassed at my actions.
"You are forgiven." He said smirking making me roll my eyes.
After a few more minutes the bus came to a stop in an hotel, making some students clap for some strange reason.
"I can't wake up this idiot." Blake said standing up from his sit.
"Punch him." Jordan suggested making me look at him.
"Don't punch him, I'll try to wake him up." I said knowing it would probably be of no use.
"Adi, no offense but you can't even wake up a fly." Blake said with a small smile.
"I was very much offended but ok." I said to him before giving him a smile back , knowing that Blake is the type to think I'm being serious.
"Roman wake up! I got brownies for you!" I said loudly hoping the mention of brownies would make it, but he didn't even move.
"That didn't work, I tried-" I started looking at the two boys but I was cut off when Roman wrapped his arms around me, pulling me in a hug, making me scream a little at the unexpected action.
"I knew pumpkin was a real one." Roman said still hugging me.
He then pulled away and glared at the two other boys. "I was awake, idiots. This was a test for the three of you and you two failed." He said point at them.
"Good, next time I won't try to wake you up and just leave you in the bus." Blake said rolling his eyes.
"You are so mean to me." Roman said with puppy eyes, but they didn't even seem fazed by them.
"You aren't that much of a saint either." Jordan said and I think we all could agree with that, even Roman.
