Dylan was still thinking about the weird stuff he had seen in the hallways when he heard Josh. 

"Good," Dylan said, distracted and looking back at the hallway they had come out of. There were plenty of kids coming out of it now and the front lawn was quickly filling with students getting in line to get on the bus. 

"How about you?" Dylan asked, looking at his brother. Dylan noticed that Josh looked a bit spooked and was about to ask what was wrong when the supervising teacher spoke. 

"Ok everyone, have your permission slips out and ready to turn in as you enter the bus." She spoke loud and, since they were close to her, Dylan's ears rang from how loud it was. "Whoever doesn't have their permission slips cannot go on the trip. No exceptions."

Dylan took out his permission slip from his backpack to get it ready. Dylan took one last look at the hallway and then decided to shake it off. 

"Did you hear that they opened that new super fast ride at the theme park?" Dylan asked, smiling at his brother. "Hope you're not going to chicken out." 

"Alright, start moving forward," the teacher said - making Dylan jump. 

He showed her his permission slip and she smiled, "The twins." 

"Yup," Dylan said, rolling his eyes at Josh. The teachers seemed to like to call them "the twins," as if they only existed as a pair. 

"Okay, get on. It's open seating so sit wherever you'd like." 

Dylan smiled and boarded the bus. He made his way to the middle of the bus and got in one of the seats, waiting for Josh. He had a bad feeling. He couldn't identify it and didn't even know what it was that he was feeling exactly. He felt uneasy. Next to him, he noticed a crack in the window, small and seemingly inconsequential. 

"Cracks in the windows. Cracks in the world," Dylan said, absentmindedly - not knowing where the words were coming from.
