hey hi hyd - glaive

III

we were on the road for about 30 minutes after that and i had no idea where we were going. it was still early, around 10 am now, so there was still a lot of time in the day but i didn't really plan to spend the whole day with Ash. "so where are we going?" i questioned him "you said wherever so i'm taking you wherever" he smiled over at me, he has a nice smile. "you have a pretty smile" i blurted. oh shit. i said that out loud. i hid my face as he pulled into a diner parking lot and looked over at my red face. "i'm sorry i didn't mean to say that out loud" i tried to cover myself but he just smiled and laughed a little "but you still thought it, so you think about me" my face heated up and i laughed it off "i do not." he looked at me and new i was trying to hide my redness "okay grey, whatever you say" then he got out of the car and i followed.

we walked into the building with a sign that read 'Ziggys diner' and sat ourselves in a booth near the back. my face had cooled down and i had started to relax from whatever our previous interaction was that had flustered me so bad. Ash and i were never really friends or anything but we always had some sort of mutual attraction to each other, we covered that up with various insults and comments though. that didn't stop us still being flirty at times. i never thought i would ever truly catch feelings for him or anything and i assumed he wouldn't either but that's what we've been covering up the whole time. Ash broke me from my thoughts again by kicking my foot from under the table and saying "you okay". i always hated that question "yeah, just thinking" i said as an older woman walked over to us.
"what can i get you guys today?" she said and looked directly at Ash, waiting for him to respond "um i'll have a chocolate milkshake and fries please" he added a smile. "and for you ma'am" she looked over at me "just a strawberry milkshake please" i said, then she smiled and walked away.

our food came while we were in the middle of a heavy debate on wether strawberry or chocolate was a better flavor. "you know i don't have any money for this right?" i said while taking a sip of my milkshake and stealing some fries with a smile. "oh that's just great because i don't either" he laughed back "and don't take my freaking fries". we finished the fries and our milkshakes and now had to decide how to pay for it. "so what are we gonna do about this though" i asked him, he stayed silent for a few seconds and finally responded with "dine and dash". he shot up from his seat and grabbed my hand in his and we ran. it didn't take long for someone to notice why we were running and start to chase us, we got outside and i jumped into his convertible as he threw me the keys and i started the car. as soon as he got in he drove away. fast. i felt the breeze through my hair and let it down to fall on my shoulders, i felt free for once. we made enough distance from the diner to slow down but i kept my hair down, letting it blow in the wind. i was laughing and so was he, he had a cute laugh. i felt his gaze on me so i looked over at him and locked eyes, "what" i blurted with a smile. he smiled back and said "you're really pretty", my face instantly heated up and my smile grew larger. "shut up" and his next words caught me off guard more than this entire situation,
"make me"
