Veronica sat toward the front of the bus as well. Most of her other cheerleader friends and gone to see relatives out of state, and because she would be alone, her mother forced her to go on some stupid school trip. Without the other cheerleaders, she felt like a loner. So she created another world for herself, by listening to music and keeping her attention focused on texting her friends. If she witnessed what was going on toward the back of the bus, she would be shocked. Sure she acted like a loose girl, always grabbing guys' attention with revealing clothes or bending over because she "dropped her pencil", she actually was shy when it came to sex, only participating in it a few times. As the bus moved more and more into the land that was 'Nowhere', she saw her cell signal slowly dropping. She panicked, realizing it would be long at all until she wouldn't have any signal, and thus, no longer able to text her friends. Veronica then tied her blonde hair into pigtails to keep her hair off of her neck.
