Just Friends?•Damien Haas

Bus Ride Back

UPDATED: August 2022

The next day we quickly get dressed and head outside with our stuff. Matt Raub, Sunny and Joe are standing by the vans. They told us the the vans were the same as the way here, which meant I was with Joe, Courtney, Shayne and Damien again. We loaded up the vans with our stuff and helped the crew load up the filming equipment then hopped into our vans. Once again, I sat in the back with Damien, Courtney and Shayne in front of us. I quickly out on my headphones and turn on my favourite playlist, not particularly wanting to talk to Damien right now, seeing as Randy Bandits had won, and he won the bet. I didn't know when but I knew he would bring it up, so I just had to try and avoid the subject for as long as I could. I get lost in my thoughts as my eyelids grow heavy and I fall asleep.

"Morning sleepy head" A voice spoke softly as I opened my eyes. I look up and see Damien smiling down at me while playing his switch. I smile in return before sitting up. He tells me that we have about an hour left until we get back to the office. I sit up and open my phone, seeing messages from different group chats while Damien goes back to talking to Shayne. I click on the group chat I share with Mari, Olivia and Courtney. I read through the messages and reply. ----4 Girls 1 Chat---Mari: Hello LadiesOlivia: And GentlemenCourtney: Please welcome onto the stage....SEXY SUSANMari: WTFCourtney: My stripper nameOlivia: but your name is CourtneyMari: yeah, maybe Courageous CourtneyOlivia: Courtney-No-CondomCourtney: ....how do you know my hooker name?Mari: LolOlivia: I'm boredCourtney: same.Courtney: GIRLSCourtney: GUESS WHATMari: what are you on now?Courtney:{picture of Y/N asleep on Damien's shoulder}Mari: OMGOlivia: they are sooooo cuteCourtney: yeah I know!Mari: As are you and ShayneOliva: YEPCourtney: TrueCourtney: guysCourtney: you left me on readCourtney: hello?Courtney: I am so lonleyyyyyyCourtney: {cat meme}Courtney: HelllloooooooCourtney: 99 bottles of water on the wall. 99 bottles of water.

I click off of the group chat, having a conversation with the other four people in the van. We talk about random things for a while before Joe calls out, "Get the FUCK out of my car we're here!" We pack our bags up, hopping out the car. We unload our bags and equipment from the van, taking it all inside the Smoffice. Soon enough, the other vans pulled up and everyone brought in the bags and equipment. We finished unloading then vans and said goodbye to everyone, heading home. Courtney and I drove to Starbucks to get a coffee just before driving back to our apartment, where we both immediately crashed and fell asleep. 

Here's an update. I'm sorry it was late, Year 11 is already tough and I'm dealing with personal shit I won't bother you with.

So as I previously said somewhere, the story is now in your hands! What do you wanna happen next? I have a few ideas but not many really.

If you enjoyed this chapter, leave a vote and comment if you have something you want to happen! Thanks for reading and I'll update soon!!
