(I recommend listening to the song when it comes up)
We pulled up to Eclipse and the three of us hastily got out of the car. Bella got her phone out of her purse and started to text rapidly, not caring about the world around her. The wind flew rapidly through my hair, chilling my skin and making me feel like a ice cube.
"I should've bought a jacket or something with me"., I shivered.
We stood at the curb, watching the cars drive past, waiting for our turn to cross the road. After a couple seconds, it was our turn to cross and Bella was still texting on her phone.
"Bella?"., I nudged her a little.
"Yeah, just give me a second. ..."., she waved her hand a little, continuing to type., "...Korin says he's already here".
"We should probably cross now"., Chris stated.
I linked my arm with hers and pulled her across the road, removing my arm when we got across safely. Because its new, there's a bit of a line up to get in. At least a half an hour wait. For fuck sake, I should've listened to Chris when he said we should leave.
We've been standing here for a matter of 30 seconds before Bella stomped her foot on the ground, tapping me on the shoulder.
"Save my spot, I'll be back in a minute".
"Ok..but where are you going?".
"Going to get some liquid courage, so we can at least have some fun while we wait in this long ass line".
"Hey, good idea!..."., I smiled., "...Do you need me to go with you?".
"No, it's ok. It's just across the road, I think I'll be alright".
"Alright, we'll can you not text while you're crossing".
"Ok Mom!"., she said mockingly.
I watched her as she walked across the street and felt myself being nudged as the line started to move.
"Ok, ok. Jeez, it only started moving 2 seconds ago. ..."., I looked back at the girl behind me., "...Calm down".
I huddled closer to Chris as we started to move, shivering a little.
"You tell me something..."., Chris spoke., "...Why didn't you bring a jacket?".
I didn't even think about, if I'm honest.
"None of the jackets I own would of gone with my outfit..."., I cleared my throat., "...annnd if I'm honest, it didn't even cross my mind".
He chuckled and shook his head, taking off his suit jacket.
"Here love—do you mind if I call you love?..."., he cleared his throat and scratched the back d his neck., "...Be—because, if not, I won't—".
"You can call me whatever you want, Chris. ..."., I smiled up at him., "...Now, stop stressing".
He nodded and put the suit jacket around me, pressing a kiss against my cheek.
