Summary: The opportunity of a lifetime turns out to be an unforgettable adventure
Prompts Used: 471 - Denver, Colorado ;; Table
Notes: all A/U and basically what I say goes. For my purposes everyone is more or less the same age and that would be 21. Short start but will pick up. And this fic. is intended to be Part One of a five part series.
Denver, Colorado
Amy Dumas had no aspirations of being the female Indiana Jones, she was just fascinated by culture and that was why she had chosen a double major in Cultural Anthropology and History. And maybe she didn’t know what she would do with her degree after graduation but she figured that this trip might help her decide.
Plus, the redhead would readily admit, this was the opportunity of a lifetime and there was no earthly way she was going to turn it down.
One full academic year abroad, and they would be visiting some of the major cities and countries that were important to culture, society and history.
Amy also happened to be one of two students selected from her college and the other student just so happened to be her room-mate, Trish Stratus.
“Are you all packed, yet?” Trish questioned, the blonde woman shutting and locking a large footlocker.
“Yup, I’m all set,” Amy surveyed her luggage, two large suitcases and one smaller rolling one. “Are you packing your entire closet?”
Trish rolled her eyes, the blonde having two large suitcases in addition to the footlocker. “We’ll be traveling by boat and private jet… and it’s not like I’m packing everything, I just want to be prepared for anything.”
Amy stuck out her tongue, dragging her suitcases to the door. “Whatever. Are we ready to head downstairs or not?”
Trish nodded, pushing her footlocker to the door. “Yeah… just, maybe we could ask for some help?”
Amy snorted, “You’d better believe it Blondie because there’s no way in hell that I’m helping you carry that monstrosity.”
“Cut me some slack, Ames, it’s not that heavy…” Trish began and then huffed, pausing so she could get another good breath before pushing the trunk into the hallway. “I was just efficient in packing.”
“Excuses,” the redhead replied, calmly setting her own luggage in the hallway, “maybe we should have requested a second vehicle just for your bags?”
Trish blinked, “do you think they’d really do that?”
Amy rolled her eyes, “somehow I really doubt that. But who knows, maybe we’ll get lucky and someone will take pity on you and be willing to break their back.”
The blonde woman’s forehead etched in thought, “Actually, Jeff did say that if I ever needed his help all I had to do was call…”
“So you’re going to exploit your friendship, just so you can get that behemoth trunk moved?”
“Whatever works,” Trish replied, sitting down on the trunk and bringing out her iPhone. “Since you won’t help me, I’ll just call him.”
Amy shook her head, leaving for a moment so she could bring her bags downstairs to the first floor lobby where they were supposed to be meeting their driver. The school was providing transportation to the airport where they’d fly out to meet with the program coordinator and meet the other students. Amy had just finished loading her belongings into the SUV that would take them to the airport when Trish’s massive footlocker trunk finally appeared… Trish and Jeff following shortly.
