Saturday. One day before we left for Christmas break.

The birds outside our window were chirping loudly, and they woke me up. Van was entangled around me; I was stuck. It wasn't the first time we'd slept together, and it certainly wouldn't be the last.

I was content just laying there with his arms around my waist. My fingers went to playing with the locket he gave me. I could get used to this, I thought, as my eyes wondered to look for a clock.

I jumped when I seen it was 1:00 pm, we still had to pack all of our clothes. Van looked so angelic sleeping that I didn't want to wake him up. I wiggled out of his grasp, kissed his forehead, and got to work.

Both suitcases were packed within an hour. Mine was small because I didn't have a long ways to travel. Van on the other hand, was taking a 20 hour plane ride to see his family. I had gotten a pretty clear idea of what he wore, considering I spent almost every second of the day with him. Everything was neatly folded, probably much better than Van would've done. Content with my work, I snuggled back in beside Van and fell asleep.

Van woke me up by shaking my shoulders gently while letting streams of curse out of his lips. "Calm down McCann," I breathed out, not wanting to speak. "Your suitcase is all packed." A total wave of relief swept over his features. "Ryn, did I ever tell you I loved you?" he smiled. I giggled, "maybe just a few times."

I made a new covet that fit my theme better! Um this is also the second last chapter... PSA: you are looking beautiful right now
