"Haaaay, (Y/N)! I was wandering, would you like to come to Blackwood with me and my family?" Josh's voice called through my phone sounding cheerful.
"Sure, when is it?"
"When school ends, wanna spend the summer with us?" I grinned thinking about how awesome that would be especially on a mountain in the summer.
"(Y/N)? You still there?"
"Oh! Yeah sorry, daydreaming. I'm in! What's the climate like up there?"
"Oh, it's pretty hot, but I'd bring a jacket with you anyway babe."
"Okay dokie! Will you come round an help me pack?" I asked biting my lip, i just wanted to see him I don't care about the packing, although I should care about it since it's next week!
"Sure babe! See you in a bit!" I grinned and said bye before putting the phone down.
Josh knocked on the door, wearing a loose button up shirt and baggy jeans from the hot weather with designer sunglasses. I opened it and he immediately wrapped me in a hug pulling me off my feet and spinning around laughing.
"Dude chill!" I said between laughed and he had his dorky grin plastered on his face refusing to fade and he honestly looked excited.
"I can't believe it!! We get to go to Blackwood together!!" He said hugging me again.
"Yes, I'm excited too but you're acting like a teenage school girl who's crush just asked her out!" He ruffled my hair and I pouted.
"Bro no fair."
"Not my fault you're smaller!" He laughed and I punched his arm.
"I'll get you back at Blackwood bitch!" He rolled his eyes and I held his hand bringing him to my room earning a weird glance from my mother and father.
"Okay, so what do I need?" I asked and he walked over to my closet searching through my clothes.
"How about this and this?" He smiled and I felt my face grow red as he held a Halloween outfit I had of a nurses outfit where the dress was a bit to high for going out in.
I was about to protest when my mother walked in taking one glance at Josh holding the ridiculous outfit and her eyes widened.
"We where sorting through clothes to throw out and which ones to take on the trip!" I said quickly and she frowned.
"What trip?" Oh god she already doesn't approve of Josh for being mentally unstable like me, but this is just the icing on the cake for her.
"Josh invited me to go to his family's lodge in Blackwood during summer brake...." She rolled her eyes and sighed.
"Fine! Go! After everything we've done like pay for your medication and you just leave us!" She wasn't even joking.
"Mom! I never have friends never mind boyfriends and I'm 19!" I protested whilst Josh awkwardly stuffed the Halloween costume back into the closet.
"Will his family be going?" She asked raising an eyebrow and folding her arms. I nodded and she sighed once again.
"Okay. At least you're being more sociable. Just, don't make any sexual jokes whilst you're there." I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, I don't think that would be appreciated by them mom!" She walked back downstairs and little did I know my father was listening from outside.
"Soooooo you can go?" I nodded happily and Josh grinned.
"Fuck yeah!" He said punching the air.
"I heard that!" My mother shouted from downstairs making me cringe.
//////////////////
"Hello (Y/N)! Josh, you never told me your girlfriend was this pretty!" I blushed and Josh looked alarmed as we clambered into the back seat of the Washington's car.
"T-thank you Mrs.Washington" I said awkwardly and she beamed at me. I buckled in my seat belt and Josh slipped his arm around me pulling us closer.
"Hello (Y/N), it's nice to finally meet you!" Josh's dad said smiling and shaking my hand. He appeared to be driving us down there, I just hope he got enough sleep since it was 6 in the morning so we would get here for about 12 am.
Everybody ready?" We nodded and set off on our journey to Blackwood.
"So, (Y/N), are you in any of Josh's class's in collage?" I nodded and told her a few subjects trying to keep the conversation rolling.
"Ah! I knew getting Josh back into collage was good for him after he dropped out." I glanced at Josh who was slowly sinking down in his seat.
"Moooom! Please, can we talk about something else?" I giggled.
"Okay Joshy, have you seen this picture of him when he was little (Y/N)?" She handed me a set of keys with a picture in plastic casing attached to them. It was a picture of Josh stood with seaweed in his hand at the beach in nothing but trunks and two girls either side of him both with the same skin tone as him and the same darkness about their eyes. They where pulling faces at the seaweed in his hand.
"That's our Hannah and Bethany... Such lovely girls they where. They would of loved you (Y/N)!" They seem very open about everything that happened which is quite good.
"I'm sure I could say the same about them from what Josh has told me! That's a good photo you've got there." She smiled as I handed her it back.
"Beth especially, I actually remember before I dropped out of collage she saw you and said you had a nice ass," I blushed and laughed making Josh smirk.
"And she wasn't wrong either." He whispered in my ear so his parents couldn't hear. I felt my heart beat faster and he must of seen how flustered I'd gotten.
"Babe we're going to be a while so why don't you have a sleep?" I bit my lip and stared at him.
"I know you where up all last night." He said laughing and I nuzzled into his shoulder and yawned. He handed me an earphone and we shared the set listening to his music.
~~~~~
(Y/N) fell asleep, and soon after my mother was asleep leaning against the door in the front seat.
"She seems very nice, Son." My father said looking at me through the mirror. I smiled and kissed her forehead. She sighed happily gripping tighter on to my shirt in her sleep.
"So, have you....?" My dad smirked and I groaned rolling my eyes.
"Dad!!"
"Sorry! Just having a father son talk with you..."
"Well you never did that with previous girlfriends..."
"That's because I think this ones a keeper, Son. Look after her." I smiled and nodded tightening my grip around her waist.
After about an hour we'd gotten off the motor way and headed through a nearby village, (Y/N) woke up in her usual way by nuzzling her head against my shoulder and yawning.
"Mornin' sweetie." I said smiling sweetly. She returned it with a kiss on my cheek.
"Hello." She rested her head on my shoulder again and sighed happily.
"(Y/N)! You're awake! Did you have a nice sleep?" My mom said beaming. It made me happy how well they where getting along.
"Yes, thank you Mrs. Washington!"
"Oh, please! Call me ........."
"Okay dokie ........."
"I think you will like it at Blackwood. There's a forest there with all kinds of animals in it!" I said and her eyes shine with enthusiasm.
"Really? Can we go?" I laughed and ruffled her hair.
"Of corse we can! It's pretty warm up there in the summer so the birds will be out, the colours are amazing in some of them!" She made an adorable 'O' shape with her mouth as she daydreamed about the animals.
My phone vibrated on my lap with my music still playing through earphones. I lifted it up and I received a text from a contact called 'Cochise<3'. (Y/N) glanced at my phone and snickered so I knew it was her doing.
<Message received>
Hey bro, wanna hang today?
I bit my lip and thought If Chris would feel left out if I say I took (Y/N) to Blackwood.
<Message sent>
Sorry Cochise, I'm on my way to Blackwood with (Y/N) and my family
<Message received>
Oooooh! Bro... Use protection! ;D
If Chris was here right now I would of slapped him. (Y/N) giggled and her face turned pink.
<Message sent>
Bro, we've already done it ;)
(Y/N) snatched my phone out of my hand and typed something before handing it back to me smiling innocently.
<Message sent>
And he gave me bite marks to prove it ;D
-(Y/N) <3
I laughed shaking my head and I glanced at her neck, it was covered from her jacket but still visible from my angle. Light red teeth marks I gave her from the other night stained her (skin/tone) skin, making me feel guilty.
"Did I hurt you?" I mumbled whilst my parents spoke about work ordeals.
"Nope, it was quite exotic actually." She replied giving me a half lidded gaze and winking.
"Well, since you liked it so much we can do it again at Blackwood." She grinned.
"Do what at Blackwood?" My mom asked. I cringed but (Y/N) saved us with the perfect story.
"Oh, we where just going to take pictures of some of the birds for our project in school." My mom nodded and carried on talking to Dad.
"Nice save baby." She laughed and playfully punched my arm.
"Here we are! Blackwood Lodge!" My dad shouted enthusiastically.
