Another Cliché Love Romance

"The honeymoon suite has been prepared for you Mr and Mrs Kaitlyn."

"I need to pee." I said, for what was most likely the fourth time since we had left Melbourne. Tyler hadn't said anything since we had received the last text from Kaitlyn, when we had planned to do two hours of driving each. That was twenty minutes ago.

"Please Tyler, I need two minutes." We hadn't seen anyone else on the road yet. I suspected that they were far enough behind us that two minutes wouldn't matter that much. I turned to Tyler and gave him the biggest puppy dog eyes I could, after a moment he glanced at me out of the corner of his eye and gave a big sigh.

"There's a spot just up the road." His voice was so flat. I don't know whether it was because he was content driving the car or if it was really painful for him to be my partner on this trip. Maybe the poor guy was just scared I'd kick his balls again.

After another minute, he pulled over on the side of the street. "What are you doing?" I asked him.

"Your highness." He jumped out of the car and walked to the back where I could hear the zipping of what was most likely his backpack. "What are you looking for?" I asked him.

He ignored me again, and instead came to my side with a nice canon camera hanging around his neck. He opened my door and I was greeted with a flash in my face. "We are supposed to document this, right?" I gave him my sweetest smile as he took another photo.

"Am I your muse then?"

"You know it." He took my hand and I stepped out of the car. "Have we stopped to take photos..." I looked around, "Of the Australian bush?"

He shook his head, looking down at his camera. "You need a toilet. Pick a spot."

Realising what he was referring to I gasped. "I am not some animal! I am a lady! I cannot just urinate in the bush!"

"It's really not that bad, and I promise not to perve." He drew a cross over his heart with a wicked smirk on his face.

I looked around at the wilderness that had just become my bathroom. I was not some stuck up rich girl, but squatting in the bush where snakes and kangaroos surely awaited was not my cup of tea.

"Go on princess." A small nudge from the ass behind me got me moving. It was time to accept my fate. Here, in the wilderness of Australia, was where I would die. Snakes, koalas, kangaroos, a hole, deadly plants, anything could get me here. At least Tyler was somewhat of a man- a boy, he should be able to give a punch or two if I was attacked by a vicious creature? I turned around to look at my supposed protector, only to find that he had left me completely.

"Nice work Tyler." I muttered to myself. "I am going to get stabbed while taking a piss and no one will ever know. What will my mother think of you then when the police have to tell her I am missing?"

I took cover besides some mysterious looking bushes, and did my business. To say it was the most horrible experience of my life was a complete understatement- okay that might have been some exaggeration. I had begun to put myself back together when I heard the unmistakable sound of a click of a camera followed by an evil laugh from moving bushes next to me.

"Tyler!" I screamed, stood up and moved to the sound. "You are dead! That is disgusting!"

The bush was howling with laughter, and I nearly felt guilty when I started attacking him. He made his way to his feet and staggered away from me, doing a poor attempt at blocking himself.

"Look at the photo!" He yowled, pushing the camera into my face. What could a girl do? I gave him my most serious frown and said "delete it" and then stomped off back to the car.

He was a moron, an imbecile! I decided I would ignore him for the remainder of the day. Apparently he had only captured me in the moment of having pulled my panties up and promised to delete it if I 'asked nicely.' When nightfall came, and so did the unstoppable hunger of my stomach I finally gave in to Tyler.

"How far away are we?" I asked, barely audible to him. We had decided to drive straight to Adelaide and I was already regretting it- it was past 9pm and the only thing I had had since brunch was a packed of Doritos

"Nearly there." His reply was flat again- completely focused onto the road ahead of him. My stomach grumbled loudly. I threw my arm over my stomach to try and suppress the awful sound, Tyler seemed to ignore it for a second until he gave me an unimpressed swift look, then eyes back onto the road.

"Sorry that I am not some super-human whose body is completely okay with starvation Tyler."

The corner of his lips twisted upward slightly, and I realised after spending eight hours with him in a car, it had become reassuring to see him smile. What was going on with me? I needed to slap myself out of it, and from some unknown reason I decided to do just that.

"What the hell is wrong with you Zoey?" Tyler yelled at me after the loud sound of my hand on my cheek spread through the car- my cheek was stinging with pain and I immediately regretted it, but at least Tyler wasn't smiling and it wasn't making me happy to see him smile.

"I- I don't know." I muttered. I thought he had chosen to overlook my sudden violence when he pulled the car over and flicked the overhead light on.

"I don't need to pee." I said suddenly, he gave me a frown and then leant forward to touch my cheek. It still stung, but my skin flamed where he touched me like his body temperature was abnormally high.

"You're stupid." He said, apparently inspecting my eye.

"Ah- thanks?" I said, trying not to focus on his fingers that were dancing on my skin. He ignored my comment. After a moment he had decided my eye was okay as he turned the car back on and we were back on the road. Within minutes, we were on the outskirts of Adelaide. It seemed we had both internally decided it was best to avoid conversation for the remainder of the drive.

"We're here." Tyler said at-long-last. Somehow, the tension that had sat between us had died down and the air had changed into something. I wanted to say we now sat in a pool of mutual respect, but were we really there yet? That wasn't for me to say, after all, he had tried to get a photo of me using nature's rest room.

Courtesy of Kaitlyn, we booked into a luxurious five-star hotel. It smelt of 5 stars, it looked of 5 stars, even the air tasted like 5 stars. That was when the hotel receptionist told me the worst news of my life as I stood there, surrounded by luggage next to Tyler and his damned backpack.

"Kaitlyn." Tyler said, the receptionist raised an eyebrow at him. "Tyler Kaitlyn." Her look was full of disbelief but she somehow over looked his bullshit response and handed him the card to our room.
"The honey moon suite has been prepared for you Mr and Mrs Kaitlyn, I hope you find it upto your standards."

I suddenly wished that I had never left Melbourne.

Sorry for the long wait on the update, I will try to get a new chapter up soon! XX
