It was rough. I did in fact tell Hunter that I don't know how to drive, but yet here I was attempting to.

I no doubt was swerving down the road. "Just keep the wheel steady." Hunter told me. I looked away from the road for a second. "What do you think I've been trying to do this whole time?" I questioned him genuinely.

He sighed. "I told you I don't know how to drive." I said to him, making it seem like it was his fault that I was even in the drivers seat at all.

We were down town when Hunter told me to pull over and stop. "What, why?" I asked even though I was already pulling over. I then realized the orange truck that was parked.

"Hunter, no." I told him. But it was too late. He was already out of the car and walking over to Skip and his dickhead friend.

I opened my car door. "No, no, no." I said as he walked over to them. This cannot be happening right now.

Metal gods? It's Eden, we don't talk like at all but for the love of fuck what the hell is Hunter doing?

I then watched as Hunter said something to Skip, getting his attention. "Suck it." Is all I heard Hunter tell them. Then I watched as he flipped Skip off and then flicked Skip's lip.

Skip obviously was pissed so before I knew it, Hunter was running to the car and practically jumped into his seat. I started the car and started driving as Hunter was getting excited.

"Drive!" He said. I looked at him with wide eyes. "Don't you think were going too fast already, maybe we should show down?" I questioned him. He shook his head. "You slow down you die, that's Metal!" He said.

I sped up more. Hunter was yelling excitedly and I was just trying to focus. My eyes went wider as I saw our only possible way out. A fucking alley way.

"We are not gunna make that." I told
Him as I continued to go. "Yes we will." He said. I shook my head. "I KNOW THIS CAR!" Hunter yelled just as I started driving through the Alley way.

We fucking made it. Shortly after that I heard a crash. "What happened?" I questioned Hunter.

"Skip got stuck." he said happily as I drove back to the house. I honestly was kind of pissed at him.

I haven't driven that long, like I just started to today. And having me basically be his fucking getaway driver from Skip? It scared the shit out of me. What if something went wrong? What if I fucked something up? What if I could of Swerved into the wall or whatever the fuck?

As soon as we reached his house, I stopped in the driveway a little to harsh and I parked, turning off the car, giving Hunter his keys.

I didn't talk to him. All I did was get out of the car and walk to the door and into the house.

"Eden." Hunter said as I walked through the kitchen and down the basement stairs. I didn't say anything. If I did, there was a chance I'd blow up at him. And I honestly didn't want to do that, I hate it when we argue.

"Can you please say something?" He questioned me. I turned around and looked into his eyes. "I didn't want to do that." I told him honestly.

I was okay with him teaching me how to drive, but fucking speeding down a fucking alley way to get away from dickheads? Not a chance. "Go driving?" He questioned. I shook my head.

"No, I mean I didn't want to go fast let alone drive away from Skip through a fucking alley way. I mean seriously, what would of happened if I fucking missed the opening of the alley? Let alone what would of happened if I fucked something else up with the car? Jesus fuck Hunter, we could have died." I said freaking out.

I was in the middle of freaking out when I watched Hunter walk over to me, wrapping me in his arms. Just like that kiss, it was unexpected, but I didn't mind it.

"I'm sorry." Is all hunter said. I was somewhat calm now. I will admit that it was nice seeing this side of Hunter. Not a self righteous dick who doesn't give a shit.

I sighed. "I don't even know why I freaked out, it was fun, it just was a lot and I didn't expect that. We literally made Skip crash his fucking car." I said to Hunter.

Hunter let go of me and stepped back a little bit, I did the same. "I am sorry. I just, Skip is just a grade A ass and he deserved it." Hunter explained. I smiled a small smile as I looked at him. "Trust me, I know." I said.

He nodded but didn't say anything. I took it as my opportunity to speak again. "Also, I'm sorry." I told him genuinely. It was true. I was sorry for a lot. He looked at me with furrowed eyebrows. "For what?"

"Freaking out just now, coming here after my parents kicked me out when I didn't ask, zoning out earlier when we were talking about the kiss. It's just-look, I'm sorry, okay?" I ranted.

He smiled. "It's okay. I mean we've both put each other through hell, but that's over. It's okay. As for you coming here after the shit with your parents, it's fine. Believe it or not, you're not the worst person to hang out with, Eden." He stated.

What he said made me feel better. "I appreciate that." I told him. "You're not the worst person to hangout with either." I said, continuing my side of the conversation.

It was nice when I saw Hunter walk closer to
Me again, hugging me. This hug was different though. Given that I'm just a small amount shorter then him, I was honestly happy when I felt him kiss my forehead.

Jesus, don't fuck this up.
