Mandag 12: 11
"If you go on like this you're going to become a hot air balloon." Sana commented as I chewed on my sixth slice of pizza.
I gave her a sly look over her laptop before making a show to take a bite out of my pizza." I don't care. Chris left this morning. I eat for two and I need to console myself. This is probably the best time for me not to give a fuck on my weight. "
"You never worry about your weight, Céleste. "
I paused while chewing before giving a look in agreement with the brunette. "True."
Sana left a smile despite everything before shaking her head as she looked back on her screen.
I shrugged my shoulders in response before taking a seventh slice. The thing with pregnancy? I was even more hungry than usual. I was already-
"Hi !" Suddenly said Sara accompanied of Ingrid making me take a break watching Sana.
This last sustained my look looking equally astonished before turning to the girl duo. "Hi."
"We heard you got the bus. Congratulations. "
"Thanks." Sana replied simply before turning her eyes on her keyboard, leaving me smile in a corner before taking a new bite from my pineapple pizza.
A tense silence settled between us before Sara again tried to catch Sana's attention."We wondering about something..."
I looked at them as she paused, giving a look at Ingrid before the push. "Would you want to join us ?"
Sana raised her eyebrows immediately, giving me a long look since it was exactly what she was expecting.
However, she showed no signs of emotion as Sara continued to explain her idea in uncertainty."We just figured that because you're 6 and we're 19... and there are 25 seats on the bus, and so we thought maybe it could be a match? "
I immediately brought my napkin to my lips to hide my smile at the sight of Sana's frowning expression.
That brought Sara to look at Ingrid before she turned to us again. " And we know we maybe haven't been the world's best friends, but we don't really know why."
"Because you called Vilde a slut at borkis pre-game in October 2015." Sana replied immediately with incredulity making me nod my head.
"And Eva too." I reminded, giving a sharp look at Ingrid before quickly frowning at the sensation of my phone vibrating against my thigh.
I recovered it from my pocket before freezing at the sight of the message on my screen.
Group chat Trio
Willy boy 😉 ❤ ❤ :
A BABY ?! A FREAKING BABY ? YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A FREAKING BABY ?
I folded my lips already knowing how he had learned it before giving a barely interested look in the direction of Sara. "Oh, I'd completely forgotten about that, but I apologize. "
Christoffer ❤ ❤ :
Seriously bro ?!
Babe, don't be mad at me...
He's wouldn't stop asking question...
Willy boy 😉 ❤ ❤ :
Omg SO IT'S TRUE ?! IT'S REALLY TRUE ?!
Cutie ❤ ❤ :
Why do you want him to joke about this ?!
IDIOT !!!!
"We'll merge our buses on two conditions. "
I shook my head in trouble before lowering my phone to concentrate on the conversation to wear.
I'd take care of those two idiots later.
"You pay for the bus, and I become the bus boss." Sana declared, giving me an impressive look.
I turned my attention to the two girls to see their expressions shocked as they exchanged a glance before hesitating.
"Uh... we have to discuss with the girls ..."
"Either we make a deal now, or there will not be a bus." Immediately Sana made me chew absently on my pizza looking between the trio with entertainment.
I looked like Ingrid and Sara seeming to have a silent conversation in resignation before Sara turned again to Sana. "Yeah. Okay. We're in. "
"Good! Send me the names of everyone on the bus, and I'll invite you to a bus meeting. "
I watched Sana roll her eyes back to her laptop with complete disinterest for the two girls making me lower my head again to hide my hilarious smile.
I hated bullying or even gratuitous wickedness but I had learned since the last year that it was better to stand for oneself than to avoid conflicts constantly by crashing.
"Okay..." Sara thought, looking between Sana and me before walking away.
However, they were instantly replaced by Vilde, Eva and Noora. "What did they want ? Have you talked to them?"
"I have news, where is Chris ?"
"In Berlin."
"What's up ?" Eva asked as she took a bite from my pizza before grinning. "What is it ? "
"Pineapple. "
"Ew! This baby has weird tastes !"
I giggled slightly before I noticed Sana's gaze on us making me bring a finger to my lips in the direction of Eva before signing maliciously Sana to announce the great news. "We have merged with Pepsi Max."
"Are you kidding ?" Eva exclaimed immediately, leaning over Sana in incredulity.
"What does that mean ?"
"It means they have to pay for the bus... and I become the bus boss." Sana answered immediately, making me rumble my nose as I realized how wrong it sounded.
I shook my head before crossing my arms over the table raising a Noora eyebrow. "They're going to plant us a knife in the back. Believe my experience, these girls are like Iben. They are... evil. "
The latter gave me a puzzled look before turning again to Sana.
"Why do you get to the bus boss ?" Vilde asked in boredom.
"Do you mean we're joining with Pepsi-Max ?!"
Sana gave a bored look at Noora before resuming quickly. "Either we join with the Pepsi-Max squad, or there will not be a bus. So we have a bus meeting this week. "
I raised my eyebrows as Sana turned to Eva immediately harvesting a definitive nod of the brunette as she made an X with her hands. "I can't host again. Like, ever !"
"Noora, the kollektiv ? "
"These girls are not going into my apartment. "
"No, uh, my mom..."
"Your mom is not having a wine tasting party !" Objected immediately Sana in annoyance before turning to me causing me to drop my pizza in surprise.
I shook my head immediately before lifting two fingers into the air. " Two words. Baby. Stress. "
Sana rolled her eyes before giving a frozen look at Vilde's request. "Why can't you host for once ?"
I immediately paused by looking knowingly before squinting my lips as Sana finally agreed.

"A freaking baby! I couldn't believe this!" William exclaimed through my laptop screen making me roll my eyes as I poured my pasta into the pan.
"I don't really know if it's a good or a bad reaction." Chris said in turn, making me give him a dark look over my shoulder.
I did not even know why I had agreed to do a skype with these two at the same time. They were barely bearable on our group chat then live.
"You must call him William."
I immediately let out an incredulous breath before giving a weary look on the brown through my screen.
However, it was before Chris quickly commented that it was a girl making me roll my eyes again.
"First, we don't know-"
"Yet. "
I sighed by giving a sharp look on my screen receiving a mocking cough from William."Castrated, bro ! "
" See ? That's why we'll never call him William." I said, pointing at him with my knife before resuming my diced chicken cut.
"What do you think about the name Pia ?" Chris snapped back at me, pausing to look at him with a smile that was both amused and softened before rolling my eyes to the little struggle between the two idiots.
"It's a boy."
"A girl !"
"A boy !"
"It's my child ! It's a girl !"
I stopped immediately what I was doing before heading for the two to stop this incessant game. "Okay, stop ! We don't know. Yet. So just... stop! And Chris, stop telling everyone. "
"Why not ?" William asked with a suspicious look in my direction making me sigh by pinching the bridge of my nose.
"Maybe because I'm still in high school ?" I replied dryly with a sharp look in the direction of William collecting a silence from the duo. "Whatever. I'll talk to you later."
I immediately extinguished the connection despite the protests of the two idiots letting me lean on the counter to catch my breath.
I immediately brought my hand to my belly through my tee-shirt before murmuring under my breath. "They're a duo of hell."

Fredag 19:42
Honestly, I really did not know what I was doing here.
The first meeting of the Pepsi-Max. I was not even a real part of the bus. I was merely present.
"That's why I think we should be ambitious, and a clear goal should be to try and win at least one of the bus prizes at tryvann in may 2018."
I looked awkwardly at the rest of the large group of girls looking at Sana as if she had two heads making me squeeze my lips.
It was even worse than I imagined.
"It's easy to say you want to win prizes, everyone wants that, but now that you're busy boss, do you have any plans on how to do that ?" Asked one of the girls whose name I did not know yet.
"To start, I've had to look at your budget, and it needs to be re-allocated." Sana answered without hesitation. "For example, there's no point in trying to compete in lighting and sound rigging, cause then we're going to lose. But what we can be competitive in is concept. So the first thing I'm going to do a lot of our resources from the lighting and sound category to the concept category. "
"I'm sorry, but it's pretty hard to win the year's best concept."
"Yes, but if you have an analysis of the buses that you have the last three years, you can see some obvious commonalities. The league 2014 : a boy's bus from baerum with pokeball-bar and pokemon decorations. Montana 2015 : a boy's bus from Oslo-west that used three versions of montana-Tony Montana, Hannah Montanna and the State Montana. And then we have the Langslaget 2016, inspired by football spirit and nationalism. Do you know what buses have in common ?"
"Boy's Buses..."
I immediately took out my phone under the table that was clearly ready to flee from here as soon as possible.
I quickly opened my conversation with Chris by making him regret for even encouraging me to go to this meeting before feeling a nudge in my side.
I immediately raised my eyes with a guilty look before puckering my lips to the amused expression of Noora.
"As soon as this meeting is over, I leave." I whispered in a calm voice giving a broad smile to the blonde.
"You mean you're gonna meet Chris." "
I immediately folded my eyes on the blond playful before bringing my finger to my lips to make her sign to be silent with a smile.
I turned my attention to Sana as she asked for no other question questioning one of the girls.
"Well, so... the russ period is all about partying and drinking, and then I have to ask, since you're muslim, what do you think of drinking ?"
I shook my head immediately on the girls looking at Sana with real wait before making a sign to put a bullet in my head in the direction of Noora.
"I judge no one."
"So we can drink ?"
Just like that, all the girls got up, letting us see the multitudes of bags of liquor they had brought with them.
I jumped up to my feet and gave a broad look in the direction of Noora before I picked up my phone again. "And that's my sign to leave."
I hastened to slalom between the numerous girls moving towards the living room of Sana to go in the hall of the entrance.
I opened my conversation again with Chris to see that he had told me he was on his way making me sigh heavily in relief.
However, I was soon to grimace again at the understanding of this music of russ of last year.
Early enough, Chris entered Sana's apartment with an impressive and amused look at the sight of the multitude of girls letting me roll my eyes as I grabbed my coat and scarf.
I slipped in them looking at him as he bent over to have a better look.
" Idiot. We're going !" I grumbled under my breath, lightly striking him on the shoulder and immediately chuckling the brown.
However, Sana hastened to join us with her wide eyes in the realization at the sight of Chris."Wow, wow, where are you going ?"
"I can't really party if you know what I mean..." To support my point, I showed the area of my stomach before I bent over Chris as he threw his arm around my shoulders. "Then I'll go home."
"You can't go home! It's-"
"Sana ?!" Elias exclaimed sharply, followed by Yousef as they entered the apartment with wide eyes at the sight before them. "What's happening here ? You know mom and dad are here ?"
"Huh ?!" Said immediately Sana made me open my eyes pushing me from Chris as I realized the shit we were in.
"They're down with the neighbors. Get them out! Quickly! "
"I help !" Chris said immediately realizing the situation causing me to immediately throw myself into the action.
"Okay, everyone has to get out now !" Sana shouted before turning off the music.
The boys immediately started to push the girls out of the apartment, letting me rush with Sana the remains of cans and alcohol around the apartment.
I knew Sana's parents well enough to know that they would not take good the idea of drinking at home.
" Come on ! Out, out, out! Come on, come on! Close the door, hurry!" Elias cried, pushing the noisy girls out of the apartment. "Céleste, grab the bottle over there !"
I immediately grabbed the stash of strong liquor to hide it under my coat before taking the trash bag that Sana had put most of the leftover bottles.
I gave a quick nod in the direction of Sana to say that I took the girls in charge before firing Chris with me towards the exit.
However, I certainly did not expect to meet Sana's parents on our way down the stairs.
The girls had left before so it was at least a relief.
"Céleste ?!" Sana's mother exclaimed with a wide, welcoming smile before making me tense as she squeezed me into her arms letting me tighten my grip on the bottle of alcohol in my hand."You're leaving already ? I thought Sana was supposed to have some friends tonight?"
I swallowed back slightly to give a tight smile to Sana's father who was watching Chris and me.
"Oh, uh, Chris. My boyfriend came to fetch me. I didn't feel very well."
" Nice to meet you." Recognized Sana's mother before giving me a preoccupied look. "Does this relate to your stay in the hospital ? I was really worried about you. "
"Uh ... no, no. Don't worry. "
I exchanged a new embrace with Sana's mother before quickly shooting Chris with me the moment he had also said goodbye to Sana's parents.
I immediately let out a long sigh of relief when I was outside the apartment complex before taking out the bottle of alcohol from my coat with the intention of just throwing it off to be stopped by Chris.
"Huh ?"
The latter merely gave me a big smile by taking the bottle before throwing me the keys of his Mercedes. " You drive. I drink. "
