Stuck On You

chapter 1: weisz arrives

chapter 1: weisz arrives

~weisz~

       My boyfriend yawns as he rests his head on my arm while we wait for everyone else on our school trip to collect their luggage. Reno must have not gotten much sleep on the plane because he seems exhausted right now.

       "I'm guessing you want to sleep once we get to the hotel?" I ask.

       Despite looking like he can fall asleep standing up right now, Reno decides to take the opportunity to be a pest to me instead. "I'd rather us sleep together, if you know what I mean."

       The mere mention of doing that instead of resting causes my cheeks to turn a deep shade or red. I try to shrug Reno off of me, but he stays glued to my side. "Don't say stuff like that in public."

       "Oh, come on, no one's close enough to hear me," Reno says. "And besides, what if I meant that I want us to nap together? Nothing sexual in nature? If anything, your mind is sexual if that's the first thing you thought of."

       "You meant it in a sexual way, and we both know it."

       Reno smiles at me, then kisses my cheek before he goes back to resting his head on my arm.

       Once everyone has their suitcases, we're told to gather up so we can meet our tour guides. Since we are a large group, we have three different tour guides and will be separated into three different groups. Thankfully, we're going to be with our roommates so I wouldn't be separated from Reno.

       "Bonjour, everyone," one of the tour guides says in a French accent. "I'm Gabriel. This is Lou and Agathe, and we are your tour guides and will also be acting as your translators. If you ever need help translating something, that's what we're here for."

       "Uh, hi, quick question," Marie says, and I already know she's going to say something very inconsiderate. I can just tell by the tone of her voice. "Shouldn't everyone here be speaking English? It's the default language."

       "Default?" Gabriel asks.

       "Yes, default," Marie says. "It means standard."

       "I know what default means," Gabriel says. "I don't understand how you think English is the default language. Yes, many countries choose to teach students English, but that does not mean everyone here, in France, should be expected to learn English when français is our language." He mutters something in French under his breath, which causes Reno to snort a laugh.

       Marie immediately glares at Reno. "What's so funny? What did he say?"

       "How should I know?" Reno asks, though something tells me he actually did understand what Gabriel said. Reno wouldn't just laugh for no reason.

       It's soon time for us to head to our hotel, which I can't wait for because even I feel tired. I did get some sleep on the plane but not too much. It would be a lot easier for me to nap in a hotel bed than on the plane.

       As we all walk to the buses that will take us to the hotel, Reno lowers his voice so that only I can hear what he says next. "Gabriel called Marie a conceited bitch. That's why I laughed."

       "Oh. Then yeah, I would laugh too. Wait a minute. Does that mean you speak French?"

       "I didn't mention it?" Reno asks. I shake my head. "Oops. But yeah, I do. Consider it a good thing since we won't need a translator if you and I ever want to go somewhere on our own. You'll have to pay me for translations, though."

       "I can already guess what the payment is going to be, and the answer is no."

       "You're no fun."

       There are three separate buses to take us to the hotel, and we have to go to our assigned bus based off our tour groups. This is so the teachers in charge can take attendance to make sure we're all here.

       Though this was the group we were in when getting on the bus to the airport, it's now I realize that group is also the same group I'll be touring Paris with. Unfortunately for me, my ex-girlfriend just so happens to be in the group.

       I hate playing the cancer card, but I am very much tempted to play it to either get me and Reno in another group or Marie. Something about stress isn't good for me and Marie gives me a lot of stress.

       I hope she chooses to leave me alone, but she doesn't. In fact, she sits in the seat in front of me and Reno. She then turns to face us. "So what did the tour guide say? I know you understood him."

       "Did I?" Reno asks. "I don't know about that. I only speak the 'default' language."

       Marie glares at Reno. "You know what I meant by that?"

       "Not really."

       "I can already see you being a pain in my ass for this trip," Marie mutters before turning to sit in her seat.

       Reno leans towards me and whispers, "Just like how you'll be a pain in my ass for the trip."

       I immediately understand what Reno is trying to hint at and, of course, my cheeks burn red. "Reno, what the fuck?"

       Reno pretends he doesn't say anything as he rests his head on my shoulder in an attempt to nap during the ride to the hotel since we don't know how long it's going to take.

       It actually doesn't take long to get to the hotel, thankfully. Once we arrive, the teachers tell us that today will be a rest day since we have to get accustom to the time zone. We're free to explore around if we want, but we must inform a teacher before doing so. 

       Reno and I decide we might go out exploring later but as of right now, we just want to rest. We both didn't get enough sleep last night, and our naps on the plane were quite on and off. Not enough for us to feel fully charged.

       Everyone is assigned their rooms, so Reno and I head up to ours. As soon as we walk in it, Reno says, "Oh, darn. There are two beds. It looks like we won't be able to share one."

       I furrow my eyebrows. "What? Why not?"

       "I'm just kidding, Weisz," Reno says. "Obviously we can share one if we want." Reno puts his suitcase by the dresser before staring at it. "Part of me wants to unpack now, but the other part just wants to sleep."

       I, on the other hand, already know my choice. I set my suitcase and bag aside before lying down on one of the beds. I hold out my arms for my boyfriend. "Sleep."

       Reno smiles and gets on the bed with me. He gives me a lingering kiss before resting his head on my shoulder. "I'm so happy we're here."

       I run my hands through Reno's black and red hair. "Yeah, me too. We're going to have the time of our life here."
