Adam's POV
You know when you laugh so hard you feel dizzy? Yeah that's how hard I laughed. I have never been so embarrassed in my life. That is the kind of situation I have nightmares about, where everyone is staring... judging... but Sadie? She just doesn't care. I feel like she is good for me... Around her, things like that just don't matter.
'Well, I should probably take you home' she sighed
We'd been sharing stories for hours, she had more to tell than me, but I like to listen.
'Okay' I nodded sheepishly
'Gonna tell me where you live so I can get you there?' She nudged me playfully.
'Oh right' I blushed.
I told her where to go and she sped off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Sadie can you slow down a little maybe?' I was clutching onto the edge of my seat so hard my knuckles were white
She rolled the windows down.
'WHY?' she yelled 'ALL GOING FASTER DOES IS GET YOU THERE QUICKER'
I shot her a nervous glance.
'I CAN'T REALLY SEE WITH ALL THIS HAIR BLOWIN' IN MY FACE!' She giggled
The car swerved and I started muttering prayers under my breath.
'WOOPS! PIGEON.' She laughed. Like potentially dying was funny.
I took a deep breath in and closed my eyes all the way there.

As I felt the car jolt to a standstill I leapt out and started to hyperventilate. She jumped out after me, saw me about to puke, and started laughing hysterically.
'You alright there buddy? Need a paper bag?' She patted me on the back.
I shot her a 'I hate you so much right now' glace and she broke out into fits of laughter again. Boy she loved to laugh.
I moaned and stood back up again. She smiled, grabbed me, and roughly pulled me into her for a hug. She squeezed me tight and ruffled my hair.
'You have a beautiful jawbone. We'll hang out tomorrow okay? I'll swing by at some point'
I just watch awestruck as she skipped back over to her car. She clicked the door open and climbed in.
'Oh!'
She clambered back out again and ran over to me.
'I almost forgot!'
She grabbed my head in her hands and pressed her lips against mine. I just stood there like a potato.
She pulled away and gave me another quick peck.
'Mmmm. Cherry lip balm. My grandma uses that.' A huge laugh escaped her before she slapped me on the shoulder, jumped back into her car and sped away.
What the hell just happened.
