Unbelievable

|How Illegal Is It Really?| Ch. 28

The new passport, driver's license, and of course birth certificate in my bag as I get in my car, ready to drive back home to my boyfriend.

I pull out a pack of cigarettes and pick one out and put it in my mouth. After lighting it I take a slow, satisfying drag from it.

I think about the time I basically scolded Adam for smoking. Here I am. Smoking.

Only those three will ever know. I won't tell anyone else. Not even David.

Now that I have a passport we can go on tour!

I get to Dave's apartment. I open the door and he greets me with a hug.

I walk to the bathroom. Closing and locking the door behind me I look at myself in the mirror. Both my hands on the counter to steady myself. As I look into the straight faced girl staring back at me I see the mirror and wallpaper change. I look down and the tile is different.

I unlock the door and leave the bathroom. I look into the living room and see a big flat screen TV. There's a Nintendo Switch port next to an Xbox.

I look in the kitchen to see all new appliances. Obviously, David's nowhere to be seen.

Someone clearly lives here. Someone with children.

The fridge is full and organized. Tupperware with labels that are handwritten. Baby food and more food that you would probably feed to a picky eater.

I walk around in the rooms. The main room seems to belong to just one person. I learn that a single mother lives here with her two kids.

I walk to the bathroom and try to reverse what I've done by doing the same thing when that doesn't work I sit down on the couch in defeat. This feels as if it's all happening so quickly and it probably is.

I nearly start crying in the now empty and now modern apartment when I see things start to change back.

I look into the kitchen. I see Dave and he looks shocked.

"I didn't see you sit down. You must've been moving at like warp speed." He tries to joke. It doesn't come out like that though.

I'm in shock. My face must show it because David walks over into the living room and asks me what's wrong.

"Oh nothing... that's just my face." I joke awkwardly.

"Oh... hehe..." He laughs.

He holds me close to him by my shoulders. He starts to flip through channels on TV but it quickly loops back to the first channel he started on.

I know I just went back to the future. I can't seem to fully concentrate on that right now. The modern designs and furniture that were so familiar to me just didn't seem too interesting. But, why was I there for such a short time. I got transported so quickly.

"Do I hear music? But like really really faintly? Or am I going insane?" He asks me in a puzzled tone.

I look at him and make a confused face. I lightly shake my head in an attempt to respond.

"No I don't hear it." I lie while looking around.

Of course I hear it. It's playing from my headphones. I was listening to music. My AirPods must have some of the music leaking out because he can hear it.

I quickly get up and hope he doesn't notice the music leaves with me. When I get to the main bedroom I put it back in the case and charge my phone. The outlet is covered by a nightstand and put the phone back there with it so he doesn't see it charging.

I walk back out. I sit back down next to him and he pulls me closer by my waist. I lay my head on his chest.

He whispers something in my ear but the thoughts in my heart are much too loud and I can't hear what he says. I just say yes. I figure no matter what it is it won't kill me.

He decides he's going to pick me up. Sweeping me right off the couch. He's carrying me to his bed.

When he lays me down he begins to crawl on top of me. He kisses my upper thighs, arms, collarbone, neck, and ends with kissing me on the lips.

With one hand he holds both of my arms above my head by my wrists. He kisses me passionately. It almost feels as if we're moving a bit too fast.

His hands move up my shirt. He moves them back down and unbuttoned and unzipped my pants.

We've gone all the way before but this time seems so different. Better almost. Maybe being apart from each other has made us even more attracted to each other.

I'm so tired. I feel like I'm going to pass out. When we're done I fall asleep quickly. I fall into the most satisfying sleep.

I'm curled up next to Dave. I feel so loved. I've never felt this loved before. I really wonder what I've done to deserve such and amazing and loving man.

He plants a kiss on the top of my head. I give out a satisfied sigh. I can see him smiling brightly out of the corner of my eye.

Now that everything is calm. I can really think about what just happened.

I also think about the illegal forms of identification I have stored away in my bag.

I really hope no one can see right through me. Or the ID.

I get up when Dave finally falls asleep. I pick up my now fully charged phone and I look through some things. I read through some articles. I scroll through Instagram and Tumblr. After finding nothing interesting I shut off my phone and stuff it in the bottom of ny bag.

I walk out to the living room and still find nothing interesting. A sudden yearning to listen to music takes me over. I want to go to a record store and look through everything they have. I want to go with Dave though.

I'm so incredibly bored. I feel like I've already done everything. I then get the idea of going to some local shows. I never really got to do that very much. I mean in the early 90s I did a few times but I didn't quite want to then. Now it seems like I almost crave it.

Maybe that's what's next for me.
