Chapter 27, A Drunken Escape (Ep. 7: The Bite)
"JESUS, CAN YOU SLOW DOWN?!"
Being crammed into the smallest cart to exist was the last thing Gwen envisioned doing. There were lots of things she would've preferred, but seeing as running was of no use from how much she and her drunken partners were stumbling, hijacking this silly cart seemed the lesser of two evils.
She held a tight grip on the smooth wall, not realizing it was of no use since there was nothing to hold on to. Her legs kept wobbling back and forth and her foot somehow always ended up stepping over Steve and Robin's.
"I taught you how to drive and this is how you put it to use?! All those lessons went to waste!" Gwen complained to her brother, a sudden giggle escaping her lips.
There was nothing funny, but every time she glanced to the front, seeing her brother behind the wheel left her feeling quite comical.
"YOU HAVEN'T TAUGHT ME ANYTHING!!!" Dustin screamed over the loud alarm. He made a sharp turn, causing his backseat passengers to bump against the metal walls.
"Does that mean I have to teach him?" Steve pointed his thumbs at himself, narrowing his eyes in thought. He stumbled upon another sharp turn and bumped into Robin, who frowned and hastily pushed him to his girlfriend.
Oh, girlfriend.
Gwen Henderson...
What a sight for sore eyes, indeed.
Falling into her arms was like falling into a gentle wave. Her blue eyes were mesmerizing, truly ethereal and worth drowning in. She held him with such delicacy, as if she were afraid of breaking him. He had never been treated this way, so tended with love and care.
Heaven was with her, because she was heaven.
Even amidst the mayhem, peace and pure bliss was felt.
And it was because of her.
"I guess I literally fell for you," Steve's brown eyes softened as she held him.
Gwen's face turned a blushing pink. Her heart skipped a beat at just his mere presence that she couldn't resist the urge to kiss him. She raised her hands to cup his face, but forgot her arms were holding him steady.
He then fell to the ground in a grating crash.
Robin laughed much louder and pointed at him teasingly, "Now you actually fell for her!"
Gwen slapped her hand against her mouth in a loud whack. Her blue eyes were wider than ever at the shock of having dropped her boyfriend. She continuously looked between him and Robin, as if debating on what to do. Not even a second later, she purposely dropped down beside him.
