He showed up at 8 on the dot to help me pack.
He seemed really excited. By around 10:18 we got everything packed. I sold my car a couple of weeks ago and bought a really nice 2016 Toyota Sequoia.
I realized that I needed an SUV for college and it fit all of the stuff I needed for college.
"You ready to go Tris?" He asks
I look around my room again and nod while sighing.
My parents said they'd visit when they could because they couldn't be here today.
"I'm gonna miss this place" I say tearing up
"It's not bye forever you know. This will always be your home" he says then wraps his arms around me.
The same warmth and comfort I got when we were together comes back.
"Uh Four..." I mumble
"Hm?" He asks
"Your arms are still around me" I say
"Oh uh sorry" he mumbles and his cheeks have a tint of pink when he pulls away.
"Yeah I'm ready" I whisper and walk out of the room.
I continue walking until I get to my car. Four comes out and locks the door behind him.
He walks over to the car and closes the trunk.
"Do you want me to drive first?" He asks
I nod and get in the passenger seat. We start driving away and one stray tear falls, but I don't wipe it away.
"Your destination is 2120 miles ahead" the gps says
"Here we go" I whisper to myself
I plug in my phone to the AUX and put on Gone Gone Gone by Phillip Phillips.
I sing along to it and I am definitely not a talented singer.
"Woah do you hear that dying cat? Oh wait it's just you" Four says while laughing.
I scoff and slap his arm.
"You do not touch the driver!" He yells while laughing
I keep hitting him and we get to a red light. He starts tickling me and I squirm around then my head falls on his shoulder. I look up at him and he looks at me.
We look at each other's lips and slowly lean in.
-Beep Beep-
We brake apart and see that the light is green. He sighs rather loudly and slams on the gas.
Were we really about to kiss?
The song ends and Black Widow by Iggy Azalea comes on.
Four starts doing the rap and I laugh because he sounds like shit.
"You're so off key" I say
"Whatever you sound like Taylor Swift" he says
"Ew. She's terrible. That's hella messed up" I say and cross my arms.
A few hours later we finally are out of Illinois.
It's starting to get really cloudy.
Right after I think that it starts to sprinkle. Then it starts pouring.
"We should pull over. It's hard to see through this" he says
I nod and then I barely see a sign on the road saying there's a motel near. We finally see it and pull into a spot.
"Ready.. Set..go!" I yell an we bolt out of the car to the main office.
He opens the door and we run inside.
There's a guy probably mid 20s at the front desk.
"Welcome to the Holiday Inn. How can I help you?" He asks then smiles more directly at me.
"We need a room for just tonight" four says politely.
"Okay that'll be $35.89" he says
I take two $20 bills and hand them to the guy. He smiles and winks at me. His hand brushes mine while taking the money from my hand.
I give him a small friendly smile.
He gives me the room key and I thank him. Four scowls and grabs my hand. He pulls me outside and we start walking to find the room.
We find number 209 and go inside.
"What was that?" Four asks
"What are you talking about?" I ask and cross my arms
"You were flirting with that guy!" He yells. I scoff.
"First of all I was not flirting with him and second why do you give a shit?! It's not like we're dating anymore!" I scream the last part and storm my way back outside.
