dancing on broken glass

23. confused

Chase and I were driving up to Chase's 'safe clove' and it was safe to say that the drive was anything but quiet. The both of us were singing along to one direction. Can you believe it? One butterflying direction.it was the best thing ever. I've never felt this way before, it was a fuzzy type of feelings especially feeling like this only after a few hours of knowing each other. I didn't even feel like this with blaze it's crazy. And the craziest part was that I was comfortable with him to the level that I wouldn't even flinch when he touched me.

He had his hand on my thigh throughout the drive, it was between the rips of my jeans and was gently rubbing my thigh with his thumb. He had the sweetest and widest smile on his face.

I know that it would be a dangerous decision to go out with someone you barely know but I had a good feeling about him. And until now, I don't regret it.

We finally reached an open barren space where he parked the car. We got down gave him extremely confused and concerned look.

"Don't worry honey, don't look so scared, I'm right here with you. The place I wanted to take you to is a short walk from here."

"You're not going to kill me? Are you? If you are then please do it fast. And good luck with it, God knows I've tried and failed. "I muttered the last part, hoping he didn't here me, but of course, knowing my luck, he did.

He let out a hearty laugh " No I'm not going to kil- WAIT WHAT! " he looked shocked, and almost sad as he stopped dead in his tracks.

I gave him a small smile and shook my head. I grabbed his hand and started walking forward, however he made no move, I couldn't even move him as he was way to strong for me. He pulled me back towards him and wrapped his arms tightly around me, tucking me into his chest. He buried his head in my neck, it seemed like he was finding solace. He hugged me as though I was going to disappear.

I felt something wet hit the base of my neck. I gently lifted his face up and cupped his cheeks. He looked at me with teary eyes. I moved his face down and held his face in my hands, placing a gentle, loving kiss on his temple and nose. I wiped his tears before pecking his cheeks and pulling him back for a hug.

We stayed in the same position for a while before pulling apart.
"I'm sorry" he said, his voice hoarse
"don't be" I told him calmly, with my fingers running through his soft, fluffy hair.
He sniffled before saying "yea still, just major flashbacks"
I just hummed in response, not wanting to pry further cause he definitely looked like he did not want to talk about it. He stretched his arm out for me to take, signalling that he was ready to ditch the conversation.

He led me further into the unknown. We were soon walking through this huge this huge section full of canopies and gorgeous plants. We made our way into the jungly thing with his arm wrapped tightly around my shoulder and his fingers creasing my hair. He would place a soft kiss on my head once in a while before smiling down at me.

Ever since he said flashbacks, that one song has been ringing in my head, I unconsciously started singing it too, softly though. I wasn't aware of it until Chase pointed it out.
"sing louder will you? you have a wonderful voice" he said, getting my conscious and leading me to cover my blooming blush behind my hair. He nudged my shoulder, gaining my attention. He raised his eyebrows, questioning my attention span. "Oh, right" I mumbled before starting to sing 'flashbacks' by Zach Hood. A butterflying master piece I tell you.

"Things they changed when you walked away
You left me wondering if you ever cared
I wish you stayed, but I'll be okay
'Cause I learned from you that life's not always fairI've been getting flashbacks
Of hearing you fight behind the door
Know you'll never call back
I don't even miss you anymore
'Cause I've been doing fine without you in my life
I've been getting flashbacks
I've been getting flashbacks"

I sang a little louder for him. He stopped in his tracks, leaving me puzzled. I looked up at him, only to see him gazing down at me, almost like he was in awe of me. I gave him a questioning look to which he let out a full blown smile. absolutely GORGEOUS I tell you. He shook his head and squeezed my hand before continuing down the path. I furrowed my eyebrows as he trekked down, carefree.

"It's official, I look dead without a filter" I crib and cringe again looking at the two pictures he took of me at a random spot we stopped at cause I was obviously tired climbing up to his 'secret' destination. Crazy. He even gave me his black jacket cause he said that I would get cold! I do look real weird in those pictures though, causing me to be a baby about it. Like obviously cause I don't want no bad pictures of myself especially on someone else's phone. Especially a cute ass boy like him. So that leads us to where we are now, still in the middle of nowhere with a baby and a handsome hunk.

You're the baby

yea no shit

ok damn no need to get all protective

protective of what????

bruh you dumb

shut up Ashley

ok bitch

"How much more time bubba" I ask him, deciding to change the topic. That argument wasn't going to get us anywhere. It's a candid picture, let's leave it at that. "A few more minutes honey" he said, giving me a small smile.

"I hear waves" I stated after walking for another couple of minutes. "Yes that's because we're getting close" he said gently, a smirk now etched across his pretty face.

We walked for a few more minutes in comfortable silence before the sound of the water became more prominent and the area started clearing out.

"OH MY GOD" I practically yelled looking at the view in front of me with wide eyes. I looked back at Chase who had his sight fixed on me and that mind blowing smile stuck to his face again.

"I know darling, I know" He whispered
