.

The bus was about to start. Teachers started to collect students from all over the place. In a moment, The whole ground was empty. A lot of chatting started to happen inside the bus. Few sits were empty till the last minute.

One of the leader entered and announced, "Some students canceled their form at the last minute. So the empty sits are for the late comers." saying it, She left.

The sits beside Emma was still empty. Flora took a glance behind and noticed it.

Emma was half asleep while listening to music.

Flora thought to herself 'If the universe really wants Leo and Emmy to be together, Then the sit beside her is odviously for him.' Between her thoughts, The bus started.

Flora texted Aspen to check if Leo was still included on the bus list. The other one texted back in positive.

But since it was already late, the bus has started. Lora kept worrying. Aspen texted back, 'maybe... he took a car?' Flora checked her text and puts her phone down. It was a matter of seconds until she fell asleep.

🚀Round ~ Round🚀

Few moments passed. Lora woke up from her deep slumber. She found herself leaning on someone's shoulder. But no one was beside her when the bus took off. She slowly opened her sleepy eyes.

The person she put her head on was Leo. It quite shocked her. She quckly jumped off from her seat. She crawled herself on the corner of her seat.

Leo was also sleeping. but He woke up in Flora's continuous movement. She shuttered, "what....wh....how...

why are....you here?!?" Leo was amused with her reaction. He pulled her closer to him. "we're not stranger. Let's be comfortable."

Flora,"But...why are you here?"

Leo "'Late comer gets the empty sits' thats what Aspen told me."

Flora "but the sit beside Emma was also empty. You should've sat there!!"

L, "No it wasn't. It was filled up when I arrived."

Flora sighs, "half day journey...I cant sit with you...."

Leo "Did you say something?"

Flora "nothing!... so...where are we?"

Leo "at the bus stop. you wanna get off?"

Flora "No thanks. You go ahead." With the reply, Leo went back to preparing for another nap.

Flora "what? you dont wanna get off?"

Leo "I wont leave you alone. The whole bus is empty."

Flora "Fine. I'll look for others." She quickly gets off from the bus. the bus stop had few tea stalls around the place.

Students were walking around all over.

Flora, "where are they?..." Leo suddenly appeared from behind, "Aspen?"

Leo "I saw Aspen with the other Leaders."

Flora "Not her. Im looking for Emma." Flora stepped out of the bus. The bus exit was faced toward the road. She saw Emma on the street across them. Waving at her, she began to cross the road without looking around.

Suddenly, A car started came toward her In high speed. She stopped but it was too late. The car was only a inch away from her. She screamed for help.

A strong wind blows right beside her. Opening her eyes, She found herself wrapped around in Leo's arm.

Few students who noticed and started gathering. Emma cuts out the crowd, "FLORA!"

Leo, "Are you okay? Are you hurt? Say something!" but the othrr one was still in shock.

Emma asked agai , "you okay?" Flora was still quiet. Leo lost his cool started shouting, "How can you be so careless!! "

Emma noticed too many students were gathered. She quietly took Flora away from the crowd.

In a corner, Both sat down in a bench. Emma kept asking the same question. Suddenly, Flora spoke up, "...I'm okay..."

Leo reached out to them with a drink in his hand. "I'm sorry...I shouldnt have shouted at you like that...Are you okay?"

Flora moved away from him. Emma noticed her discomfort and decided to reply instead "She's fine, Thanks for helping"

Leo, "We'll be leaving soon. tell me If you need anything else." He left while looking at Flora.

Emma, "You're sitting with me! I'll talk with the leaders."

Flora, "did you see...how he saved me?"

Emma, "He didnt save you."

Flora "what! but...but i was with him when i opened my eyes. He covered me..."

Emma,"The car itself turned around.

He just moved you away from the road."

Flora, "but...it was less than a second-"

The leaders once again commanded the students to gather around, "We're leaving."

Emma, "it was just an accident. forget about it. Let's sit together in the bus."

When they reached the camping spot, they started to come down from the bus one by one.

Aspen, "So refreshing." Emma puts down her Headphone.

A student ran to Aspen. She whispered something in her ears and left. "I'll meet you guys at the hotel then. Take care." She followed the others.
