"Time's up! Pens down everyone." The examiner announces almost scaring the shit out of me but thank God I calm down seconds later. I waited for him to collect my paper which only took two minutes or so and I left the classroom to my locker excitedly. Exams are finally over giving me the freedom to finally breathe! I grab my books from the locker and make my way to the parking lot.

"And where do you think you're going?" I smile at the sound of that voice. I turn around and walk towards him, wrapping my arm around his neck and kissing him. We can spend as much time as we can now that exams are finally over.

"I'm taking you somewhere." He says and I smile. I wonder what he's got planned today.

"Okay. I'll just leave my stuff in the car and we can go then" I tell him and we both walk to Fallon's car.

"Happy that exams are finally over?" Fallon asks with a smile.

"Yeah" I smile back and put my bag in the back seat and tell her I'll be with Edward for the rest of the day and then leave with Edward in his car.

"Aren't you gonna ask me where we're going?" Edward asks just as we exit the parking lot of the school.

"You wouldn't tell me" I state and look out the window. "Can I turn up the volume?" I ask him for permission and he nods.

"Perfect timing, wouldn't you say?" He says and I agree with him.

"So we don't need permission for nothing. Touch like you wanna be touched, yeah. Kiss like you wanna be kissed, yeah. Oh, we don't need permission for nothing. Drink like you wanna be drunk, yeah. Feel like you wanna feel something" I sing along the lyrics and Edward smiles probably enjoying the 'show'.

"Oh, we don't need permission (to love) For nothing. Touch like you wanna be touched, yeah (to love) Kiss like you wanna be kissed, yeah" I sing and I'm surprised when Edwards carries on.

"(To love, to love, to love, to love) Oh, we don't need permission for nothing (to love) Drink like you wanna be drunk, yeah (to love) Feel like you wanna feel something" he sings and I'm clapping my hands, amazed. He does have a good voice.

"(To love, to love, to love, to love) Oh (to love, to love, to love, to love) To love, to love, to love. We don't need permission to love" I ended the song and squealed.

"I didn't know you sing!" I said right after the song ended.

"Not often but on occasion" he says with a smile. Occasion huh?

"You were so good!" I say and he chuckles as if I was lying. "I'm serious. I'm not joking" I said with a little bit of seriousness in my tone.

"Okay" he sighs, keeping his eyes on the road.

"So where are we going?" I asked just to start a conversation.

"I should've known!" He laughs. "We're gonna be there in a bit..." he says and I nod my head.

"You have plans for December? With mom and Ash and Bri?" I asked him.

"Maybe. I don't know." He says. I wonder what we might do. Remind me to have a talk with Fallon about this. "Have you got any plans? You and Fallon?" He asks me after a few seconds.

"Not really but I'd like to go somewhere. I've only been here in London. Maybe explore the city? I need to talk to Fallon about it." I tell him and he nods. "Have you been out of London?"

"Yeah a couple of times. Last year we went to Manchester and went to this beautiful park. Man, I didn't want to leave. But we had to go at some point. We stayed at my aunts for a week and then we went back home." He says and I smile at the way his face lit up talking about his trip.
