Sweet & Soft

Finishing up the little story.

The light shined into the car and my stomach started to ache. I pushed the car door open and threw up onto the concrete. My vision blurred. I start coughing and dry heaving a little.

??- You're OK ma.

Finally getting my senses back. I felt a hand on my back. Just rubbing big circles. I try to process the voice, but then a napkin comes to me and I take it to wipe my mouth.

Me- thanks. I try to side eye the person but my head just hurt a little. I finally finish wiping my mouth. Luckily I ain't vomit on or in the car just the concrete. When I sat back up my head moved back a little...Chris? He hands me a small Listerine bottle.

I take it hesitantly. I use basically the whole damn thing. I haven't drank like that since last year today.

I give what's left over to Chris and he also spits it out.

Chris- breath check.

I look at him and a small smile forms on my lips. Why did he send butterflies to my stomach? I form my lips in an O and blow in his face. He shuts his eyes.

Chris- mmm that was good.

Me- your turn.

He just opened his mouth wide and blew his hot minty breath in my face. I ended up screaming a little.

Me- eww Chris! I hit his arm playfully and he keeps that smile he's had since we woke up.

Chris- I guess you just blow better then me.

Me- yea. I laugh a little shaking my head. While trying to put my hair in a pony tail that's when it hit me. I side eyed Chris and he bursted into laughter.

Me- You're nasty. I know you not this nasty every morning.

Chris- actually its past 12 ma. He showed me his phone and I nodded. You hungry?

Me- I could eat. Theres a Ihop close by we could get take out and eat in the car.

Chris- iight cool. We went out the driver side and went into the house real quick to brush our teeth. I had an extra toothbrush. Just not extra clothes.

When we got back in the car, we headed straight to IHOP.

I got the original pancakes and Chris got the strawberry cheesecake. As we ate we made jokes and usually ended up choking then laughing again.

Chris POV

I haven't stopped smiling since she woke up. I can't stop staring at her. She's thinking about something or the alcohol is still in her system cause she would've caught-

Me- why you crying D?

She looked at me confused and I licked my fingers clean and wiped her tear with my knuckle.

D- ewww Chris. She looks out the window and wipes her face quickly.

Me- what's wrong D? She shakes her head and turns to give me a weak smile.

D- nothing. I'm just really emotional.

I stale face her.

Me- you? You are really emotional?

She let a faint laugh escape her lips.

Me- ...so d-

D- something tells me you wanna know just a little more about me... I know you also know I'm gonna tell you. I do owe you the reason of my constant disappearances and you almost getting shot at and also taking your car.

There was a silence and we stared straight ahead.

Me- so you did take my car?

She laugh a little and shook her head. I smiled and took her hand in mine.
