Crazy In Love | Buggy

s e v e n t y - o n e

We spent the next three days locked away inside of our hotel room. We were addicted to one another's touch. I would have been happy to spend the rest of my life locked into that little room.

For the first time in a long time, I almost felt like I had a home. We had everything we needed, a bed, bathroom, easy access to food. Most importantly, we had each other.

On the third day, I fell asleep for hours. I was exhausted after a long day of sex. I awoke to the sound of Buggy opening and closing the door to the room.

He smiled when he saw me. He walked over to the bed, lowering himself to that he was squating, his face only a couple inches away from my own. He moved some of my hair out of my face, so gently.

He looked even more gorgeous from such a short distance. I studied every inch of his face, the sleepiness quickly leaving me.

"Where were you?" I whispered, my voice deep from the sleep.

He smiled lightly. "Exploring the town. It has some beautiful sights."

Buggy seemed to be growing bored of the hotel room. I didn't mind exploring the town with him, as long as he was with me I was happy.

"Like where?"

"Well, that'd ruin the surprise," he told me. He ran his hand down my cheek, on to my neck. His touch drove me crazy.

I propped myself up on my elbows. "Surprise?"

"Yes. Get changed, I'm taking you somewhere."

He got up, walking away. I sighed, getting up from the bed. I noticed Buggy had a basket with him, it was straw and quite cute.

"What's with the basket?"

"Surprise," he repeated, emphasising the word.

I didn't argue. I went to the bathroom, showering as quickly as I could. Even the word surprise had driven me crazy with excitement. When a clown man told you he has a surprise for you, typically, that's a bad thing.

But Buggy knew me pretty well by now. I wondered what on earth he could have planned for us. My worry was that it would be 'surprise, we're leaving the town early and getting back on my ship, setting sail!'

I trusted Buggy had something nice planned for me. I just couldn't imagine what.

After the shower, I dawned some clothes. I didn't have the best options. Really, I needed to go clothes shopping, but I hadn't gotten the opportunity with how crazy things had continuously been.

I settled for some beige trousers, a plain white tee. The town was hot, even at nighttime.

When I walked out, I found myself quickly wrapped up in Buggy's arms. His lips pressed against mine, softly and quickly.

He had his useful red paint over his lips, when he pulled away, he wiped my mouth.

"I've covered you in red."

"Who needs red lipstick when I can kiss you for the same effect?"

We both laughed at that.

Buggy led me out of the room, carrying his adorable little basket. We headed out into the town, which looked completely different than it had previously.

The townspeople had done a good job of cleaning the destruction. There were still some broken windows, or buildings that needed serious repair. But all the minor damage was fixed. The dead bodies were gone, too, I noticed.

"Did you all bury the dead?"

"God no. That would have taken forever. Plus, they didn't deserve a proper burial."
