   I climbed in my window, then quietly helped Shelby in. "Now what?" she asked, looking around. "Just start putting clothes in the pillow cases, I'll get food in my backpack." I explained.

   Next step. Quietly empty my backpack. "What're you doing?!" She exclaimed as I was dumping out my contents onto the floor. "Making room for the food, duh." "Oh, duh, well be more quiet!" 

   Finally after we got everything packed, we carefully set it outside by the window. "Well, last things last I guess." "And that is?" "Pull the car out of the driveway without alerting my parents." "Good luck" "Thank's im gonna need it." I sighed.

   My mom walked out as we got on the street. "You son of a bitch! Come back!" I just yelled out "Love you!"  and Shelby and I giggled and high fived. "Nice job hun." She said. I blushed and said "Hun?" "Oh, sorry, I mean Chase." "No no it's fine..babe ;), I like it" We both giggled some more.

   As we were driving off down the road, I said "That was amazing." "What? The packing and the getaway? Haha." "No no, the spending adventurous time together." 

  "Oh yeah, that was amazing..Hey Chase?" "Yeah Shelby?"  "I love you.." "I love you too.." "Chase." "Hmm? "I gotta pee ha ha." "Go in my hand!" I yelled. We both broke out into more laughter and I asked "Can you wait about six minutes?"   "Yeah, why so specific?" "We'll be in Omaha in about that time, my mom might be calling the cops so we can't stop to close." "Oh! Good call."

   We finally arrived in Omaha and Shelby practically jumped out of the car xD, which made me laugh, but I waited for her in my car, got bored and turned on the radio.  Glad You Came was on, which made my eyes water, because it's me and Shelby's song.

   It actually has been since the day I saw her, It'll probably and hopefully always make me think about her. 

   When she finally got back, she saw the tears in my eyes and asked what was wrong, I didn't know how it'd sound if I told her so I said "Just something in my eyes." "Really Chase?" "Yeah?" "That's the oldest excuse in the book! "Ha yeah..actually-" "Actually?" "Glad You Came was just on.

   Shelby: *Smiles, grabs my hand and says "My universe, will never be the same, .."

   Me: *Squeezes hand and says "Im glad you came.."

   Both of our eyes watered at that moment, I grabbed both of her hands, locked fingers, looked at her and we slowly started leaning in. 

   We slowly and passionately locked lips, and started kissing. We saw a cop not far away, so ..

   The cop slowed down by us, so I decided "Better get back on the road." "Yeah, where next?" "To the highway?" "Chase, I swear you always read my mind."
