The alarm on Max's phone stirs her awake, her grabbing her phone beside her and going to dismiss the alarm, her seeing that it is now eight AM, her not minding that she will arrive at New York at night because of the twelve hour flight but her not wanting to wake up so early to get on a plane, but early enough to at least unpack basics when she gets to New York.
Max looks behind her, Vincent's arms being wrapped around her as he sleeps. She slowly maneuvers out of his arms and out of the bed, her going to begin putting on her clothes.
For the past week it has been consisting of Max spending time with everyone before she leaves for New York. Her and Vincent have been good too, her sleeping in his room almost every night.
She just honestly craves more than what she is getting. She wants more passion, more steam, wants to feel more butterflies, that type of passion and intensity that has you weak to the knees like the books she reads always describes it. Don't get her wrong, the moments between her and Vincent are good times...it is sparks there but not as much as it was before.
But she would never tell him that, she wouldn't want to change him according to her want, just like she doesn't want to change herself according to his want, it would be hypocritical of her. She just tells herself that type of intense passion and energy just exists in the books, or just very rare to find.
She turns around when she sees Vincent getting up from the bed, him yawning softly. "Sorry. Did I wake you?"
Vincent shakes his head, him bringing her in for a hug. She closes her eyes as he gives soft kisses down her neck. "You really have to go now?"
"Yeah, have to shower and go on and get on the jet after breakfast." Max replies. "Sabrina will be using hers to get me to New York."
Vincent sighs slowly. "Damn this week passed by so fast."
"We'll still be able to FaceTime."
"Yeah but it isn't the same as actually having you here." Vincent responds. "I'm gonna miss you."
Max kisses his lips softly, him cupping her face and going to kiss her for more longer. "I'll miss you too."
"Can I give you something?"
"Sure."
Vincent goes over to his drawer, him pulling out the ring jewelry small square box and giving it to her, her quirking a brow at him. "I want you to keep it, it's yours after all." He places it in her hand. "I just...while you are at college doing absolutely amazing like I know you are....I just want you to think about us and what you would want with us when you get back. I want you to keep it."
