"Guys, we need to eat" Luke said.
"But it's so pretty here" Mia said.
"For once I agree with Luke" I told her.
"Why don't the bitch and I go find some food and you guys can stay here and look at the pretty trees?" Luke stood up and walked over to me. I nodded in agreement and so did everyone else. Luke held out his hand to help me off the ground. I eyed him warily. "I'm trying to be nice here" I took his hand and he started to pull me up before letting go.
"Fuck you, Hemmings" I stood up and brushed myself off. "You're paying for lunch now"
"Whatever" He said before heading towards the small town that was about a five minute walk.
"Don't kill each other" Ashton shouted as we walked away. The walk was completely silent until we got to a turning.
"It's this way" Luke said.
"No, it's this way"
"No, that's the way we came"
"Exactly, we want to go to the town we came through" He shut up. "You're an idiot"
"Just shut up. You give me a headache"
"Too busy thinking about me all the time?" I jokingly flipped my hair.
"You wish" He rolled his eyes but chuckled. We fell into silence again and soon ended up in the small town. There was a row of shops on each side of the road and that was it.
"There's a sandwich place there"
"Let's go there. Hopefully they have bacon"
"Hi, how can I help you today?" A cheery woman asked as soon as we stepped into the empty place.
"Do you do bacon sandwiches?" Luke asked.
"Yes, would you like one?"
"Um, six actually" Luke told her.
"Should we get more in case we get hungry later? It won't matter if the bacon's cold" I asked him.

"Good idea. On second thought can we have 12 please?"
"Is someone pregnant?" She glanced over at me.
"What? No. God, no" I replied.
"You guys seem a cute couple though"
"I, um, we're n-"
"Thank you" Luke said, throwing an arm around my shoulders. When the woman turned away I shot him a glare whilst he smirked. We waited another ten minutes before she gave us two brown paper bags, both with six sandwiches in.
"That'll be $25 please" Luke and I both paid half before thanking the woman and leaving.
"We should get ice cream" I told him.
"Ice cream before sandwiches? No thanks"
"Come on" I pulled him towards the shop.
"Maddie, you know we have limited money to last us this whole trip, right?"
"Good point. No ice cream then"
"I'll buy you ice cream later on to make up for it"
"Why are you being so nice?"
"We've got to spend two weeks together. It's not going to be enjoyable for either of us if we're yelling at each other"
"I can't promise that I won't yell at you but I'll try"
"Me too"
"Why'd you let that woman think we're a couple?"
"Didn't want it to become awkward. Plus she seemed nice" I shrugged yet nodded.
"OK, we need to get back to the others before I eat all of these sandwiches because this bacon smells so fucking good"
"You sure you're not pregnant? It does look like you've put some weight on"
"Watch it, Hemmings, or I'll snap your lanky body over my legs"
"Lanky? I have muscle"
"You are also skinny and a real life giant"
"This is going well"
"Fucking swimmingly"
