Ch8 So We All Cheated

Spring break came in the blink of eye, we were all packed and ready. Our parents came to drop us to school today, they all were a little skeptical about the whole ordeal, since all of them has literally begged for entry fees.

Ben had to take some money from his 'comic book money' too and Luke had to show his father at least three book references of how a healthy mind only resides in a healthy body, so it would be good for his studies if he went to the camp, and his father being even bigger nerd than him agreed after reading those three books.

Noah's parents are divorced and never really cared where Noah is spending his money, but his mom still came with him today, which he is so happy about.

Nathan's parents are a little soft hearted so they allowed him after he begged for days. But my parents were super cool about it and I didn't even wanted to submit any fees.

We all gave our bags to be loaded, it wasn't much but just enough for a two week trip. After the goodbyes to our parents we headed towards the bus where middle rows were already full, so we went to the back, where one student was sitting.

That boy saw Noah who was walking in the front and his eyes widened. I remember when Ms. Wilson said that there was only one place available for entry and five people applied for it, Noah took one look at the crowd and pointed at the person at the back saying 'you are coming' which intimidated even Ms. Wilson.

The boy sitting at the last was the same one. He got up and tried approaching Noah, who just nodded at him and went on to take the last seat. The boys face turned from a little smug to pale as he scurried away embarrassed.

I know Noah isn't mean, but he is the biggest introvert and can barely interact which usually comes out cool, but sometimes it seems mean too.

I saw Ms. Wilson entering the bus with other teachers so I gave my backpack to Ben and went to her. She was discussing about the seating arrangements of the teachers, Mr. Brown was beside her, he is a senior teacher just about to be retired.

"So which two teacher would sit in front and which ones on the back?" She asked Mr. Cruz, Mr. Brown and Mr. Davis who had finally came to the camp after our convincing, mainly Nathan's since is is English club president.

"Ms., can I say something if you don't mind?" I asked Ms. Wilson innocently. To which she obviously said yes.

"I was thinking front seats are more comfortable, so it would be good if you would take Mr. Brown to the front, it would help with his backache and Mr. Cruz and Mr. Wilson could sit in the back, we also have Nathan and Luke are also there." I lowkey persuaded them and Luke and Nathan are presidents of their respective clubs so they would be more comfortable at the back.

She luckily agreed happily and ushered all of us to the back saying she would go to double check if all students boarded or not. I happily skipped to the back gesturing my friends that we would have company, they all looked shocked but Noah gave me a big smile and a thumbs up.

We were sitting at the long seat at the very end so Mr. Cruz and Mr. Davis took the two seater just in front of us, which we had a complete view of. Mr. Davis became comfortable on the window seat and Mr. Cruz settled beside him.

"So you need more help with your chapter Luke?" Mr. Davis asked leaning in Mr. Cruz to talk to Luke, who turned a little read and said.

"Yes, it was a small thing and I got confused but thanks for your help sir."

"Oh, it's my job next time if you have any problem just come to me without hesitation." He said to Luke and turned to Noah who immediately said.

"My confusion was cleared as well, thank you for your help though." to which Mr. Davis smiled and leaned back to his seat.

"Since when did you start to have confusions in English Luke? And since when did you started asking for teacher's help?" I asked my two friends.

"We never did, it was the day when we bought Mr. Davis and Ms. Wilson back. Mr. Cruz was in staff room so we had to take Mr. Davis lying that we need help." Luke said still red with embarrassment.

"Seriously guys, you are willing to go this low just to win a bet?" said Nathan making a disappointing face.

"yes this is clearly cheating." said Ben.

"No it's not. there were no rules." said Noah stubbornly.

"And you helped him Peter, I thought you were better than that." said Nathan making a disappointed parent face again.

"He was angry I knew better than saying no, besides you guys were no better." I just said. I know they didn't do anything wrong, but I didn't wanted to make my side of team look bad.

"We only did a little like when we-" Ben said but was stopped midsentence by Nathan's hand on his mouth.

"Oh my God, you guys also cheated." exclaimed Luke, to which Nathan defensively crossed his arms and said,

"Firstly, you were atheist Luke, you might have forgotten. And secondly there were no rules." We all rolled our eyes at him.

"Is there a problem here?" said Mr. Cruz suddenly as we realized we were hunched over in a small semi circle and Ben was even out of his seat. Some kids were also watching us craning their necks. We all immediately straitened our backs and sat upright like nothing happened, saying soft no to Mr. Cruz.

I looked out of the window to see that the bus was already moving. Suddenly Ben tapped me nervously making me look up to see a blonde, tall girl barely wearing much moving to my direction.

"Isn't that the head cheerleader who proposed you few months ago" Ben whispered in my ear.

Oh Shit I am doomed. Also I hate proposals.
