"what is an easier way to find a dispensary?" i groan as we've been walking for twenty minutes.

"is it too late to superspeed to california?" alex asks.

"maybe not cali, but we could backtrack? florida? what do you think?" i suggest, stopping and looking at alex.

"i like your thinking peters. it's quick," he smiles.

"thank you alexander," i smile back.

"you ready?" he asks.

i nod, grabbing his hand. it reminds me of what dominic and i use to feel when we touched. each energy of ours feels different, but alex is almost as similar to dominic's vibration.

i don't know how to feel about that.

we take off, everything moving slow, yet fast at the same time. mostly a blur, but i can see where i'm going. it's amazing.

the highway signs pass ever so quickly, we going through each state quicker than we'd go through in any other vehicle. florida finally arrives before we know it.

🌹 | are we crazy?!

🐲 | why would we be?

🌹 | we are in florida!

🐲 | what's a little rebellion gonna hurt?

we stop in naples.

"i'll let you lead the way," i tell him, letting go of his hand.

"gladly."

we walk in silence.

the non-interaction bothering me surprisingly. probably what dominic felt when i didn't want to talk about things and stone walled.

but my brain keeps going to worse case scenarios when i'm not distracted and i don't want to keep thinking about things like that.

"alex, tell me that we'll find apple."

"we will. we'll find her."

"tell me again, before i go insane."

he stops, grabbing my arm and turning me to him.

"we will be okay," he says, staring me in my eyes. "we will find apple."

the vibration he admits lulls me, in a way dominic did that made me believe his every word.

i pull alex into a hug, wanting to be consumed by that feeling.

it calms me down, more than i realize.

as he squeezes me closer, i have an epiphany that i've never hugged much of anyone in my twenty years of life.

the fike family would be a hug after years of anti-social behavior.

"okay," i sigh, "let's go." i release him.

"wait." he pulls me back into him, hugging me. i smile and hug him back. "what is this feeling?"
