School trip!

We're are going to Vancouver! Please join in! We're meeting at school and then flying there. We will be staying at a ski resort!


EmmaRae woke up early on the morning of the eighteenth, and hurried downstairs. The lights were already on, and her mother was cooking something. It smelled of cinnamon, apples, and most of all, happiness and love.

"Here, have some oatmeal." Mrs Lyons handed EmmaRae a steaming bowl and spoon. "Do you want me to drive you to school?"

EmmaRae shrugged, her mouth to full to answer. When she swallowed, she said, "I was actually hoping to go to the barn and say goodbye, I know Delaney is going to be there." When she saw the hurt look on her mothers face, she added, "I mean, I guess I don't have to go..."

"No, its okay honey."

EmmaRae quickly finished her food, and slipped on her shoes, grabbing her bags, and throwing them into the car when she got outside. She started the engine, and drove down the silent road.

The sun wasn't up yet, the sky barely lightening.

She pulled into the parking lot, next to Delaney's car. The light was on inside, and she opened the door quietly.

The horses were still asleep, shifting their weight from foot to foot every few moments. Emma patted Halley's neck, and Halley opened her eyes. "Hey girl." She murmured, patting her neck, and kissing Halley's muzzle.

"Em?"

Emma turned around when she heard Delaney's voice.

"Are you ready to go? I said goodbye and can come back before I go to Chicago after we get back."

Emma nodded, kissing Halley's muzzle one last time.

"Lets go."

Delaney put her bags into the back of Emma's car; she had walked to the barn.

They drove to school down the eerily quiet road, and pulled into the school parking lot, which was already bustling with activity.



Here is the resort we're staying at!

Vivianne woke early, as usual on the morning of the Vancouver trip. Her bags were already packed and her new friend Natalie was going to pick her up.
In just a matter of minutes there was a knock on the front door and Vivianne went outside to see her.

"Hey! You ready for Vancouver or what?" Natalie said excitedly loading Vivianne's bags into her car.

"Yeah, I can't wait!"

"I hear the skiing is amazing there. Have you ever skied?"

"Not really. . . I've been on a sled!"

Natalie laughed. "Not the same."

"Aw, how about you?"

"Yes! I ski every year at my grandparent's house in Colorado. I love it!"

"Your'e going to have to tech me," Vivianne said.

"I will!"

"Promise?"

"Promise."

When the girls arrived at the school they unloaded their bags and went to check themselves in.

EmmaRae saw the two girls, and waved them over. "Are you all excited?"

They both nodded.

"I was just telling Natalie that I've never skied!"

"Really? My uncle taught me when I was really little!"

"Really? Thats awesome! I'm kind of scared," Vivianne admitted.

"Theres nothing to worry about! Its not too dangerous," Natalie said sarcastically.

The girls laughed.

"Ladies!" A teacher said from the other side of the room. "Its time to start making our way to the airport."

(Yes, PLEASE JOIN!!!!)

"I'm going to miss Max." Vivianne said, sighing.

Emma smiled. "We won't be gone for that long though."

Vivianne nodded.

The bus started, and they rolled out of the school parking lot, and down the road, to the airport.


Everyone unloaded, and hurried inside.

They went through customs quickly, and got to the waiting area to board their flight.

Mrs. Greene hurried over and began to talk to the bored looking flight attendant.

He nodded every now and then, and then said something to her before turning away.

Mrs. Greene looked shocked, and hurried back to the group of seniors.

"Bad news ya'll."

"What?"

"Our flights canceled."

Vivianne gasped. "Why?"


"Snow storm in Vancouver," Mrs. Green said bluntly. "I'm sorry everyone."

"Sorry hardly fixes anything," Natalie said plainly. Surprising Vivianne.

"Well, is there anything that can be done... what are we all going to do then?" Emma asked.

"We have to wait a few hours, it won't be that bad." Mrs. Greene said, smiling.

"Okay." Emma shrugged. "What can we do in the mean time?"

"Anything really." Mrs. Greene said. "Just make sure that you are back in three hours, our flight takes off in four."

(Wait but if the flight is canceled then technically they don't know when it takes off... :P It doesn't matter)

"Theres a little deli right over there," Vivianne pointed around the corner. "We could sit there for a while, so we don't miss anything."

(I meant that our flight was canceled, but there was another one. :) )

Emma and Natalie nodded, and went and sat down in the cafe, ordering chai lattes.

A lone car pulled into the parking lot. Matt climbed out, looking to be in a hurry, grabbing a suitcase from the truck, then locking the car. He hurried up to the front gate, then noticed the anouncment... the flight had been cancled. He glanced around, and noticing the small group in the deli, headed over.

"Hello." He said, smiling slightly.

Emma looked up, and recognized him. "Hello Matt, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I... er.. Was going to go on the trip, but it is canceled?"

Emma nodded. "There is another flight in a few hours. But if you aren't a senior, why are you coming?"

He chuckled. "Because "A", technically, I am still a senior, and "B", I paid to come along." He finished with his easy smile. "Unless you'd rather not have me..." He began.
