If I'm out on my own, then I can look at you looking at me
If I'm out on a date, then I just shut my eyes, then I can't see
Get away from the bar, tell your boyfriend hold your jar
And dance with me
I see you glance at me, that's why I'm asking, B
So let's party, B, come and dance with me
Dance wiv me – Dizzee Rascal
When I wake up, I feel two hands on my shoulders. Quickly, I sit up, punching the person right in the stomach. Still panicking, I quickly move my hair out of my face. On the mattress, I find Raoul, clutching his stomach.
"I'm so sorry! I thought you were an attacker!" I exclaim, still in shock. He grunts at it, moving to sit up once more.
"I was merely waking you up, since it's almost 12 o' clock and I wanted to get back on the road." He explains, looking up at me.
"Next time, I think I'll just let you sleep though." He adds, chuckling slightly. I begin to laugh along, and soon find myself out of breath, laughing uncontrollably with him.
"I'm so sorry." I eventually manage to say, chuckling in between my words.
"It's fine, I got surprised, that's all." Raoul answers, giving me a soft smile.
"I'll get the car. Get dressed." He orders gently as he walks out of the room. I frown a bit at it. I could've gotten used to the fancy room we were staying in, but I guess we had to continue our road trip. Getting up, I quickly put on my pants, along with a hoodie which is actually Raoul's that I find in his backpack. Then, I brush my hair and my teeth. I'm putting my shoes on, when Raoul enters the room once more, car keys in his hands.
"Ready, love?" He asks, a tiny smile on his face.
"Sure." I answer, trying to hide the stupid blush that creeps onto my cheeks as I remember what happened the night before. We're walking next to each other on our way to the underground parking, his arm wrapped around my waist casually, making it clear that I'm with him. Once we reach the car, Raoul opens the door for me, making me throw him a quick smile as I get in. He gets in as well, and we're off once more, soon leaving the city and getting onto the highway. I keep myself busy by continuing to read in my book while Raoul drives. He's very nice company, since he doesn't talk too much, but isn't entirely silent either. At one point, the girl in my book realizes she's fallen in love with the guy and they end up kissing, making me smile like an idiot.
"What happened?" Raoul asks, motioning over to my book with his head before he returns his attention to the road.
"She realizes she's in love with him. They kissed!" I explain giddily, making him chuckle.
"That is a beautiful moment in the story, yes." He admits.
"Wait... You actually read this?!" I exclaim in shock, staring at him with wide eyes.
"Of course. It's a good story." He answers, grinning as I keep staring at him. After a while, I get myself back under control, and decide to put the book away for now, not wanting to finish it so soon.
When a good song that I like comes up on the radio, I begin to sing along softly.
"You're a good singer." Raoul notes after the song ends, clearly surprised.
"Thank you." I answer, grinning at him for a moment. Then, we pass a road sign, drawing my attention.
"Birmingham?" I ask, confused because of it. I can see Raoul frown at it, clearly not too happy that I now know where we are.
