Chapter 19 - The Charmed Guide
Benjamin Snowden
Why do we have to get up so early?
Amy Angel
And I can't believe you actually signed us up, Cal! I'm glad that you're coming with us.
Cal Bentley
Still not over my previous experience though.
Cal Bentley
But what I'm least looking forward to is-
Professor Ash
Greets, charming little ladies and gents.
Professor Ash
It is I, your favourite professor. Professor Ash.
I heard the girls squeal as they whispered how happy they were to have come on the trip.
Professor Ash
If you must ask, the rumours about me fighting the great imperial dragon in the South were true. Don't fret, it was all nicely disposed of.
Professor Ash
I have now returned and I'll be taking over your classes with me once more.
Amy Angel
Oh, this is the pompous guy Professor Barbary warned me about.
Benjamin Snowden
Warned you? Yeah, that would be him.
Benjamin Snowden
He's known to have relationships with students and he is very creative...
Cal Bentley
... at making up lies.
As he walked around, taking selfies with the girls if they so requested it, he then stopped in front of me.
Putting on a charming smile, he put out his hand and grinned.
Professor Ash
I haven't seen you around here. I'm Professor Ash. And you are?
Benjamin Snowden
Leaving. Come on, Amy.
Pushing me into the bus, Cal then snarled at him before following me inside.
Professor Ash
Does Master Disappointment have friends? Oh, that's funny.
In the bus, I sat in the middle of a three row seat while Cal took the window seat and Benny took the aisle.
Benjamin Snowden
Hey! I brought some snacks!
Amy Angel
You did? Let me see!
I rummaged through his bag and pulled out a meat jerky stick.
Benjamin Snowden
No! Not that!
Benjamin Snowden
That's a Meaty Skeety Stick. Eat that and you'll smell of meat for a whole hour!
Cal Bentley
Why would you bring something like that in your bag anyway?
Benjamin Snowden
I was in a hurry this morning! I slept in...
Amy Angel
No. We could use this...
Cal Bentley
Oh, I like the way you think.
Benjamin Snowden
Don't leave me in the dark, guys! Guys? Come on, tell what what you're thinking!
Both of our eyes landed on the ever-so popular Professor Ash and grinned.
I then felt a slight shaking underneath me and I instinctively held onto both Benny and Cal's hands.
Amy Angel
What's going on? An earthquake?
Benjamin Snowden
Oh, right. You've never been on a Demo-Express.
Amy Angel
A Demo what now?
Suddenly, my eyes opened wide when the bus shook itself violently before sprouting wings.
Amy Angel
Don't tell me...
Benjamin Snowden
Yep. We're inside of a demon.
Professor Ash
Let us depart!
Suddenly, I felt a little nauseous.
Amy Angel
Um, this thing isn't going to fly... is it?
Benjamin Snowden
That's the point of the wings! I'm going to sleep! Night!
As he closed his eyes, I started to panic when the bus started to move down a tarmac. And then, suddenly, I felt the strength of his wings as the bus got propulsed into the air.
As it went up, I closed my eyes terrified until I felt Cal's fingers wrap between mine.
I looked at him and looked at our hands. Only... lovers do that.
However, suddenly, we didn't fall anymore.
Then, a deep voice whispered into my ear:
Cal Bentley
I'm going to sleep on your shoulder, okay?
He didn't even wait for an answer. He kept his hand in mine and his head on my shoulder.
The fact that I knew that Cal was here made it all better.
