Gabbie POV
This is a really sweet moment, to be honest. After a bit, Adie pulls away wiping her face
A: g-g-gabbie, i-inhaler, please
G: oh yeah here babe
She takes two puffs... her mom looks confused
M: you have asthma?

Adie clearly wants to move past this-
A: a-anyways uh... how much longer till new years?
G: like three hours
~~~three hours later~~~
Three...two-
G: come ere pup-
Gabbie pulls me into a dip kiss by the collar
A: mmm~
We stand up normally again and pull away
A: woah
M: feliz año nuevo
G: feliz año nuevo
M: drinks?
A: one of us gotta drive
M: oh no not wine
A: oh okay
G: yeah sure I can have some drinks
We have some apple cider and then start to leave
A: bye m-...mom
They hug and then I hug mom while Adie gets to the car
G: thanks for everything it was fun
M: thank you... for taking care of my daughter
G: oh course
I get in the car and Adie's already knocked out again... wow... this is the year... I'm gonna marry the love of my life, it's only a couple of months away now. I drive to the motel and open the door ahead of time. Then I come back and pick up my lil sleeping beauty. I carefully lay her down in the bed and unbutton her bra from underneath her shirt and get her boots off so she isn't uncomfortable in bed. I take a hot shower washing away any worries from last year, dry off and go to sleep with adie
A: *mumbles* night
G: night
